Life moves in cycles. It is the nature of all things. We live in cycles with the sun, the moon, and the seasons. Our life moves in phases from infancy through old age. We have times of high energy, low energy, emotional highs and emotional lows. This is the nature of being human.

When we spend our whole life engaged in doing things, we fail to understand how these bodies of ours operate. It's like we're strapped into a rollercoaster and we have no choice but to go along for the ride without any control or influence on the journey. When we start to pay attention and notice the patterns and cycles, we can prepare for those twists and turns, and even begin to know how to effect them.

In today's podcast, I talk about what to do when we have a low day, why we have low days, and what we can do to prevent them from happening in the first place.

I discuss ways to understand our natural cycles and rhythms. I share how we can deal with the lows, reduce the number of lows, and lift the base of our rollercoaster's platform so that the lows aren't so low and the highs are even higher.

Forget disinformation, misinformation and malinformation. We live in a world of mass information. Every one of has access to endless content on our phones, TVs, VR headsets and tablets. Unfortunately, those algorithms don't tell us what is actually the most important, helpful, useful or honest content to consume. So what are we to do?

In this podcast, I share how we can navigate this increasingly complex media landscape, how to notice bias and manipulation, and most importantly how to stay grounded to the things that really matter in life.

Most people have a misconception about spirituality. Most people think you're either spiritual or you're not. But spiritual is not something that some people have and some people don't have. The question is whether we're connected to our spirituality or not.

In this podcast, I explore the true nature of spirituality. I share where spiritual answers can be found. I discuss the roadblocks we face on our spiritual journey and how to overcome them, and how we can develop a deeper connection to the source of all life.

Why is doing nothing the hardest thing in the world? It's not a mystery. It's because we are so used to doing, achieving, consuming, creating, analyzing and judging. But when we can break through that compulsion to mindlessly fill up the peaceful silence with needless noise, the world becomes ours.

There is perhaps no greater ability than the ability to find peace and joy within ourselves. In this podcast, I share the three most important steps for breaking through that barrier to peace. After 12 years and 10,000 hours meditating, this is what helped me go from a fidgety person with ADHD, to someone who loves meditation and can't live without it.

Introspection is a natural activity that humans have been doing since we've been around. Today however, we have very little time in our waking lives to think, reflect and ponder. This has led us to forgetting how to do this very important and necessary practice.

Is life a competition or a cooperation? What is the best way to achieve in life? If some people get ahead by cheating and competing, would we be fools to "play by the rules?"

The truth is, whether we see the world as a competition or a cooperation has less to do with the world and more to do with how we see the world. If we feel separate from everyone, competition is natural. If we see the oneness, cooperation is inevitable.

In this podcast, I explore the fear that lies at the heart of competition. I talk about the mindset of lack, greed and selfishness that emerge from this fear. And I share how we can both achieve great success, while also holding on to our inner peace and lasting happiness.
