This Human Life

In today's episode, Paul talks to author and researcher Mark Gober, an expert in the field of consciousness and existence.

His belief is that the physical world is a manifestation of our own consciousness, which is a theory gaining strong momentum in the scientific community.

We explore compelling evidence from a diverse set of disciplines, ranging from psychic phenomena, near-death experiences, to quantum physics and beyond.

Listeners will find comfort in this implied worldview, which will impact their happiness and everyday decisions related to business, health and politics.

• Consciousness - subjective inner experience or awareness
• The physical world is a manifestation of consciousness
• Consciousness and identity
• Personal desire
• Letting go of attachment to outcomes
• Not suppressing emotion, but embracing it
• Affective forecasting errors - predicting how we will feel about situations/outcomes in the future is often inaccurate. i.e. fear about future events is often unfounded.
• Good and bad are subjective - re-frame perspective
• The hedonic treadmill - whenever you achieve progress, that becomes the new norm, so you're constantly going back to zero.
• Near-death experiences
• Achieving happiness

ABOUT THE HOST 

Something that’s never been attached to Paul is the label ‘normal’ – for which he is immensely proud.  He definitely subscribes to being one of those mentioned – in the Steve Jobs quote: 

“Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules... You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.”

How do two total strangers, from polarizing backgrounds, find a middle ground?

Welcome listeners! In this episode, we welcome back Mark Hoy from Tucson, AZ.

’Lasting Happiness’ author Marc Hoy joins Paul to talk about the power of conversation, and how the effects of listening in a focussed way can lead to a powerful bond between people.

Many people treat conversation as a passive activity, but between them, Marc and Paul throw light on the art of listening, and how the simple act of paying attention can create a special intimacy.

ABOUT THE GUEST

Marc Hoy is the author of his new book LASTING HAPPINESS.  Marc is a happiness expert, but came by it at great cost and through unthinkable hardship.

When Marc says: “What is happiness?  Where does it come from, and how do you get it?” you should know it’s a question he’s had the time to consider…a LOT of time to consider.

In 1995 Marc returned from an overnight business trip to his home in Thailand to find a panicked houseguest and a dead person on the floor.  His choices: go immediately to the police and turn his friend in for the murder he’d committed or help his friend cover up the murder and pray it was never discovered.

Marc made the wrong decision and spent 5 years in Thailand’s most notorious prison with death and decay surrounding him; his own well-being in constant peril, and happiness an elusive emotion of the past – one he’d surely never experience again.  But he did.

From the depths of despair, bit-by-bit, he created his own happiness – lasting happiness – and it saw him through the most difficult, painful period of his entire life.  And now he's ready to share the things he learned.  LASTING HAPPINESS is a field guide for the rest of us as we go through life trying to find our own happiness.

Author Deborah Meredith joins Paul to talk about how her life experiences have shaped her outlook, and also her writing. Deborah has experienced the contrasts of life - both the highs and lows - discovering that sometimes the strongest resilience is found when we’re at our lowest ebb.

For Deborah, mastering life is all about taking control of one’s own experiences, and using the lessons learned along the way to create her own blockbuster life.

ABOUT THE GUEST: 

Deborah Meredith was the owner and Managing Director of a UK industry-leading business, recognized by Insider Magazine as one of South Wales’ “Top 20 Entrepreneurs To Watch”.

She had a happy marriage, a new-born son and lived in a lovely home in a sought-after area – life was good.  At least, it was until the business became insolvent, her marriage collapsed and she lost custody of her son; became personally bankrupt and realised she was stuck in a cycle of abusive relationships and self-sabotage behaviour!

She went through a number of years of hell whilst trying to work out what had happened and how on earth to get out the mess she was in and start living again.

That’s when her mantra ‘Whatever It Takes’ came to the fore and it’s how she created her Lights, Camera, Action and Step Into YOUR Spotlight programmes.

Knowing that she wanted to change and needed to change, she decided to do something about it – she re-wrote her script.

Deborah can be contacted through her website at…

1. In this episode, Paul interviews author of An End to Upside Down Thinking and senior member of the Sherpa Technology Group, Mark Gober. They discuss the upside-down thinking method approach that people have when making decisions and show you how to overcome it. Paul and Mark go on to discuss the human consciousness and how it impacts on our body and mind.  

KEY TAKEAWAYS 

The upside-down thinking. Consciousness is there and then it manifests itself in a physical form known as Paul or known as Mark, and that physical body one day will die but the consciousness lives on. The conventional view of science today and much of just mainstream thinking has a fancy term associated with it. It's called materialism. So materialism basically means the following chain of events. It says that the universe started about 14.8 billion years ago with an event that Kick-started everything. Sometimes that's called the Big Bang, and the Big Bang filled the universe with particles of matter. And when I say matter, I mean like atoms. So my table, I can touch my tables, physical, it's made of atoms. So we have this physical universe and when you have a big enough universe with enough matter, you're bound to end up with interactions between those pieces of matter and we call that chemistry when matters interacting, and in this big universe, when you have enough random chemical reactions, we are bound to end up with a molecule that can replicate itself, that like DNA on Earth. So DNA on earth leads to the evolution of living species like a human being, which evolves to develop the brain and from the brain comes consciousness. When I say consciousness, I mean our subjective inner experience. So if I say that I am speaking to you, that “I” that's what I mean by consciousness. And what materialism says is that that sense of identity, that awareness that we have that is subjective, it derives from matter, or more specifically, it comes from the brain. That is the conventional view known as materialism, and that is what my book is regarding is upside down thinking by recontextualizing where consciousness fits in the picture. So what I'm arguing in my book and that's what all the different pieces of evidence that I show point towards are the idea that consciousness doesn't come at the very end of that chain, but rather consciousness is first, consciousness is primarily existing as a more fundamental aspect of the universe, even physical matter and it exists beyond all space and time.  

Confidence. If you ever want to do something in your life and live a healthy life, you should always be confident in what you are doing or want to do. Do not fear of what other people say, do what you enjoy doing.  

Surround yourself with friends and family that cares about you. For you to enjoy life and live a life which is healthy, be around people who love you and care about your well being and always advise you on the best way to do something.  

Consciousness isn't tied to the body. This means that consciousness does not die even if the body dies.  

Impacts of consciousness not being tied to the body. This has a positive and negative impact since if you die and you were a bad person, you may come back to life being like the person you used to hurt more when you were alive and experience the pain you caused that person when you were alive. You could also be at near death and you may go to someone you cause pain and experience that and when you are back to yourself and you survive death, you might change forever.  

• The threat of conversation is that the more questions that you ask, the more there is to ask. 
• The power of our minds is much greater than we have been taught. We are not human beings having a spiritual experience, we are spiritual beings having a human experience. 
• We are connected as part of the stream of consciousness and therefore, even though we have the appearance of separation, because that's what our eyes show us, and we interpret the world based on what we see, we see separation, if there isn't the same separation that we see, if in fact, at the level of consciousness, underlying physical reality, if that's interconnected or entangled, to use the term from quantum physics then the way we treat others, and we the way we think of ourselves as human beings, I think has to shift. I think we then have to view ourselves as being part of the same hole and therefore being much less separate than we appear to be. 

What are the implications for science, medicine, artificial intelligence, and Elon Musk neural link start-up? For science and medicine generally, the implications are massive, because the conventional view in science and medicine is that consciousness again, comes from the brain, even though scientists can't currently explain how it happens. Science magazine has even called this the number two question that remains in all science. So it's an open secret that consciousness is still a mystery and of course, what I am arguing is that all consciousness doesn't come from the brain at all. So if we if we contextualize consciousness as being the basis of reality, then effectively all of our equations in science and the way we think about medicine and healing has to shift necessarily in a big way because something has been left out. 

BEST MOMENTS 

• “If consciousness isn't just a product of the brain and if it survives the death of the physical body beyond space and time, then how does it fit in with our picture of the universe.” 
• “Ever wonder why you are thinking of someone, moments later they call or connect to you? Magic? Coincidence? Maybe not.” 
• “General readers will find comfort in the implied worldview, which will impact their happiness and everyday decisions related to business, health and politics.” 
• “Consciousness isn't tied to the body.” 
• “We are not human beings having a spiritual experience, we are spiritual beings having a human experience.” 

• “In truth, there is only one mind.” 
• “We are our mind, our mind tells us to do something, and we do it.” 
• “Our body is actually an experience of our consciousness.”

ABOUT THE HOST 

Something that’s never been attached to Paul is the label ‘normal’ – for which he is immensely proud.  He definitely subscribes to being one of those mentioned – in the Steve Jobs quote:

You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.”

In today’s special episode of the Mastering Life Podcast, your host Paul Lowe interviews Master Wellness Coach and business owner, Elaine Godley. Paul and Elaine discuss the latter's Perfect 10 Wellness Programme and bring you ten areas to help you live a healthy life. Join-in to learn all about this and much more.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

The Perfect 10 Wellness Program. These include mind, body, work, home, friends, family, values, attitudes, beliefs and behaviour

If these ten areas are not in balance with one another, then there will undoubtedly be some sort of health-related issue, somewhere along the line

This is a thing that runs through everything, a lot of people don't understand what their own behavioural strengths are and as a result of that, they're constantly putting themselves in situations that don’t serve them

The body and the mind are connected through the conscious and subconscious mind, there's a saying that goes, where the mind goes, the body will follow

It's good for us to express our anger and sadness or upset, whatever the emotion is, we have to express it, otherwise, we retain in our body and what we keep in our body in terms of emotions can be literally either safe for a better life or heads down the slippery path.

We need to talk to people that share different views and can expand our minds around well, hang on, just because you've done something always done it this way doesn't mean it's right, doesn't mean it's wrong but be prepared to look at different ways, different ways that will serve you better.

Work and home. They sort of go hand in hand because again, when people behave one way at home, and they go to work and behave another way, even if they don't actually go to work, it's the external mask that people put on. Whether indoors they have one type of behaviour, when they step outside, maybe they go to work, some people behave in a different way. Now that builds up stresses and strains and again, causes your health. It’s important to have that balance of who you are and also making sure that the environment is suitable.

Friends and family. For you to live a healthy life full of happiness, surround yourself with friends and family members that always wish you well and always advise you best. With this, you will always live a very healthy life.

Values, attitudes and beliefs. values, attitudes and beliefs are connected, the things that we value, are they the same as what our employee value, are they the same as what our family values and our attitude, are we positive or negative, are we mixing with people that are positive or negative and then what do we believe are the beliefs that we live our life by, our beliefs, are they those that have been drilled into us?

BEST MOMENTS

• “The areas that people need the most help in, they can then target themselves and focus on that particular area, rather than me kind of splurging and everything and overwhelming them and then, of course, they do nothing.”
• “Doing things in regards to what other people thinks of it, then we end up being people pleasers.”
• “Where the mind goes, the body will follow.”
• “If you want to be ill, you'll be ill, think yourself in that mindset and that's what will happen because it will turn into a real thing because your mind is going that way and the body will follow.”
• “It's okay to be in victim mode every now and then but you don't stay there, you move on from it, you learn from it, you move on.”
• “If it's not serving you why keep enduring the pain.”
• “Male can father a child that is he a real father?”

ABOUT THE HOST

Something that’s never been attached to Paul is the label ‘normal’ – for which he is immensely proud.  He definitely subscribes to being one of those mentioned – in the Steve Jobs quote:

“Here's to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes... the ones who see things differently -- they're not fond of rules... You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can't do is ignore them because they change things... they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.”

Paul Lowe is the founder of PaulLoweHEARTS – which has a three-fold purpose. 

Firstly, to help you make the transition from pain to the purpose; secondly, to get your inspirational messages and stories out into the world and thirdly, to support charitable organisations in their development & fund-raising.

We achieve this by:

• Delivering our empowering Mindset For Success programmes
• Sharing your true-life inspirational messages and stories through our Mastering Life Podcast and our Speaking From Our HEARTS book series
• Utilising our significant charitable knowledge and experience.
