The Positive Head Podcast

Brandon is inspired to talk about not being overly nostalgic and constantly looking back to the past as something that defines us in the present and is perpetuated into our future, and he offers quotes, thoughts and an Abraham-Hicks clip all related to the idea that our past is only meant to be instructive, not restrictive.

Brandon is prompted by recent high-profile deaths to talk about this charged yet important topic. He shares quotes, anecdotes and a clip by Abraham-Hicks that all seek to demystify crossing over into the unknown, including related experiences like senile dementia as a "soft withdrawal".

Brandon is inspired to discuss self-love according to his own highest understanding, an especially challenging thing to human beings due to our naturally limited state of consciousness about our true selves. He also shares a related clip by renowned author Louise Hay.

As an answer to a listener's question, Brandon talks about keeping our plans and ideas to ourselves instead of talking about them excessively, and he presents some evidence for this viewpoint in the form of an Abraham-Hicks clip that deals with precisely this topic.

In this episode, Frank shares the wisdom he has gleaned by sitting at the bedside of thousands of people who are dying, and which he also covers in his new book The Five Invitations, which goes into great detail regarding what death has taught him about living fully.

Brandon follows up on a previous episode's theme and a comment he made on a public forum regarding negativity and anger, and he expands on this by referencing a scale of human consciousness and emotion as described in the work of Dr. David Hawkins, as well as play an Eckhart Tolle clip on the dynamics of the ego and the so-called "pain body".

Brandon switches things up by reading a negative one-star review; he also addresses a couple of questions from the Facebook group, in particular one regarding frustrated aspirations for an acting career, and he shares a Matt Kahn audio clip that seeks to elevate and inspire the listener by reminding them of their true divine nature.

Brandon delves into the idea that a simplistic "positive thinking" philosophy could actually do more harm than good by denying reality or repressing negativity, and comments on a blog post on this topic as well as offer his own perspective on the matter.
