In society, we commonly (mis)understand "mental health" issues physically. We consider symptoms to come from disorders - for example, we think anxiety is generated by a disorder labeled "anxiety," and depression is generated by "depression."

In truth, these are symptoms of a disturbance in the metaphysical. Soul disconnect causes anxiety and depression. "Mental health" issues are a manifestation of metaphysical disconnect in the soul or emotional / energetic body.

Tim and I discuss this common misunderstanding, and:

• The common foundation for "mental health" issues (living inauthentically; masking; the energy drain of repression and resisting a spiritual transofmration);
• The "institutional path" (traditional schooling) and why it never felt like school "made sense" to us;
• Seeking validation as a symptom of missing internal validation;
• The societal "cure" for feelings (to run away and distract), and how they make spiritual disconnect worse;
• The true "cure" of surrender, feeling, and duality of emotion - there's a purpose to pain, and going through it is what will bring us back home to our authentic selves.

Let's Get Metaphysical episodes will now come out biweekly! Part 2 of this conversation with Tim will air on May 16, 2025.

Life will treat you as you treat yourself.

The fabric of reality literally shifts in response to your relationship with yourself (and your energy). "Lucky" people aren't random: they share a core of self-respect.

When you know that we incarnate in the middle of patterns, you can choose to heal those patterns. Then, you escape the Karmic Circus (or "default life") and join the Cosmic Playground (of conscious, intentional living). The choice is always yours.

In this episode, we'll talk about all of this, and more.

• How living METAphysically will literally shift your reality
• How you broadcast a vibrational signal that communicates to life what you want to receive
• How "personal power" isn't just a FEELING of empowerment or confidence, but a state of BEING
• How the knowledge that "everything is energy" can actually be applied to living your best life

Humans are "the thinking species," which is why we're in such bad shape.

For centuries, we've been trained to THINK and DO, when we were designed to BE, like any other species. (Bears don't have an ego about "being a bear" - they're just bears. We're learning this, slowly.)

The "healing journey" is one of self-compassion, where you balance out your "thinking" with "being." It's a journey we're all making, both individually, and as a collective. This is a great thing: we're just still catching up.

In this episode, we'll discuss:

- The gongshow of human history (and how recent this "history" is)

- The OG historical event that separated us from ourselves (and each other) 5000 years ago

- How blaming your parents is the same thing as being obsessed with world disasters / tragedies

- HOW TO BE HUMAN: 3 things you can do RIGHT NOW to ease your mind and embrace your being.

Mathew Vetten is the hilarious, innovative, energetic visionary force behind Mad House, a BC-based non-profit community that does a little bit of everything.

Branches of the Mad House tree include Mad House Builders (a home-building and renovation service), Mad House Gut Hut (meal delivery), and Mad House Events.

Every Mad House initiative feeds its central cause: supporting artists-in-residence to realize their creative visions, giving creators the time and space to pursue their life's work.

I sat down with Mathew to discuss:

• How the Mad House vision was born (from Mathew's initial idea ten years ago, to the Universe's timing);
• How trusting the Universe, synchronicity, and other people has been the key to bringing Mad House to life;
• How resources (people, places, and things) are the real currency, and how exchange economy works;
• Mathew's spiritual journey from church-based, to believing in self, the Universe, and the collective;
• The synchronicity that brought Mad House together: "It sounds like a made-up story: I met a man in the woods. But actually."
• How Mad House is representative of a movement that's emerging in humanity: less money worship, more trust in ourselves and each other.

The big myth that men "aren't intuitive" comes from the fact that most people don't know how intuition actually works.

Neil is one of the most intuitive men I know. On this episode, he explains that intuition is like "broadband." The stronger your connection, the better you can receive information (the answers to all of your questions, big and small) that can ONLY be delivered through your intuition.

The thing is: "receiving" is a FEMININE frequency. So, to use intuition (as Neil does), you'll need to learn a few things.

We talk about:

• The power of listening (and how IMPROV has been a key tool for Neil);
• How Neil taps into intuition at work (and what happens when he doesn't);
• What happens when you IGNORE your intuition (hint: it's not good);
• The power of CURIOSITY (how trying new things inspires Neil, where it scares most people);
• Neil's metaphysical connection to his mental health (how his body sends signals that a wave of depression is coming so he can prepare).

Once you can identify your ego (Level 1, personal healing) and society's ego (Level 2, collective healing) you can now become aware of the collective / Cosmic consciousness.

This is Level 3, which is awareness that we're all connected at the Cosmic level, and humanity as a species is experiencing a re-integration.

What?! Let me explain. There are 3 elements to this:

1. We're all connected. I'm talking the Circle of Life. We've been trained to think we're born, and then we die, but that's not true: we are energy that cycles in and out, over and over. Every time we cycle, we rise in consciousness.

2. We are one consciousness. Think of humanity like one giant brain. Some people represent the Ego; others represent the Higher Self. As we cycle through time, our collective consciousness increases. We evolve, and we're now experiencing a period of RAPID conscious expansion. (What looks like physical chaos is metaphysical progress.)

3. We are connected to the Cosmos. Observing the movement of planets wasn't just for "the Ancients": they knew something profound that we've been disconnected from. When you synchronize your life to the movement of the planets (Astrology), you experience an upleveling like no other. This is how we're designed to work -- in connection with the stars.
