This week's podcast is a re-release from a collection of our top listener favorites over the years. In “Every Thought is a Lie (including this one)” I explore how much more space we have in our minds when we stop filling it up with analysis and judgement of our own thinking.

For the next few Caffeine for the Soul episodes, we will be choosing from some of our top listener favorites from over the years. Today’s is called, “What Inside-Out Really Means”, where I do my best to go beyond the “exam answer” that we’re living in the feeling of our thinking to the heart of how reality is actually created.

Part-two of a two-part episode. A deeper look into how we can get to our true identity.

Part-one of a two-part episode. A look at the the “horse crap” metaphor - how we spend so much time covering the wonder of who we really are with conditioning and stories, and how to dig up that true core.

A few stories from my life that point to our true nature.

A guide to the best feedback mechanism we have for discerning our current state of well-being.

A look at the Syd Banks quote: “The most selfless thing you can do, is to be selfish about prioritizing your own peace of mind”, and what implications that has in our everyday lives.

Why we find "the bit in the middle" (the part that's not now, and not the long term) so worrisome, and an invitation to rest in today instead. 

What I’ve found to be the ultimate answer to all of our questions, and the ultimate formula for getting there.

Some metaphors for our different states of mind to help us better understand them.
