This episode is an adventure through the never-ending challenge that we all face, the conflicting desires between: home vs. the outside, connection vs. independence, the inner world vs. the outer world, etc.

Everything in reality, the universe, and our lives is made of energy. The electromagnetic spectrum ranges from low (cold, dark, silent) frequencies on one end and high (hot, bright, loud) frequencies on the other. 

There are neurochemical, brain-wave, and hormone correlates to these high and low frequencies. They also naturally change over the course of the day, the year, and one's lifetime. 

Like yin and yang, everything in nature constantly cycles between these energies. The key to all health and success is living in accordance with those rhythms and experiencing the entire spectrum of life, along with the rest of nature. 

Modern humans, however, often get stuck somewhere along that cycle. Out of fear, comfort, social pressures, technology, etc., we enter plateaus or, even worse, downward spirals. 

Identify if you are stuck in one of the 4 places discussed in this episode. Also, zoom out and look back on how the flow of energy changed throughout the course of your own life, and how to perhaps regain some of those long-lost ways of being and feeling. 

Michael also does a bit of that in this episode, taking you from his home in California to across the sea in Korea and Japan, and some of the feelings and inner battles in between.
