In this special replay episode, Josh Trent meets Paul Levy, author of the book Wetiko: Healing the Mind-Virus That Plagues Our World and founder of the Awaken In The Dream community, to dive deep into what causes mass psychosis in our society, how we can escape the collective dream, and why awareness is the ultimate antidote to the mind virus.
How is the Wetiko mind virus governing our lives and the world, and what is the most efficient remedy to awaken from the collective dream?
Join Paul and Josh as they dive deep into Wetiko. Learn how to recognize Wetiko, what to do to free yourself from it, and how it impacts society and manifests in our day-to-day lives.
"We are embodied reflections of each other. And what that means is that there’s no separate self. When you begin to see that, you’ll see through the imagination.
Wetiko makes us think that we exist in a way that we don’t. It makes us think that we exist as a reference point in space and time, as a separate self, and as soon as we see ourselves in that way, we then think the world is objective, separate from us." - Paul Levy

Listen To Episode 503 As Paul Levy Uncovers: [04:05] Poisoning Of The Human Evolution"What’s happening externally in the world is reflecting what’s happening in the mind, and vice versa. With Wetiko, we all have a potential, when all of a sudden it becomes activated, it will set up this shadow government within our mind.
It will subsume the healthy parts of the psyche into its service. It will hijack the psyche. It will colonize our mind. It will dictate to the ego in such a way that we then become in service to it, to the point that we become possessed, we become taken over, we become instruments of our own enslavement. That’s exactly what’s happening in the world with totalitarianism." - Paul Levy
The Subjective Observation Of The World"There is no such thing as an objective world. That’s just an idea in our head that the active observation of the world actually influences the world we’re observing. That’s the description of a dream.
What that means is that the active observation is creative. That’s the portal into this immense vast creative power that each one of us has, each and every moment in creating our experience." - Paul Levy
What Feeds The Wetiko Virus"There is no Wetiko outside of us. If people hear about a mind virus and feel afraid, that feeling afraid, that is Wetiko. There’s nothing to feel afraid of because there is nothing there.
But if we cling to it and give it with reality, then we’re colluding with our own victimization, then we’re complicit with evil, then we’re investing in the reality of Wetiko, and there’s nobody else to blame but ourselves." - Paul Levy

Listen To Episode 665 As Josh Trent Answers Your Questions [05:10] IntroThis is Wellness + Wisdom, the podcast where we gather, apply and most importantly y'all embody the knowledge and information is out there that we are wanting to be of service to others for, mainly to ourselves.
Look, you cannot be of service to else unless you are holding up a lantern that shines light on you. This podcast focuses on the 5 sides of you, the 5 sides of yourself, that we call the wellness pentagon. And these are the sides that we're either starving or we're nourishing.
Starting at the is your physical self and the walls of your emotional and mental self. And also very importantly, your financial and your spiritual self.
This wellness pentagon is something that constantly fascinates me. And in this AMA, we're talking about a deep, deep question for many people, probably millions of people across the world.
[07:45] A Simple Guide to Becoming A Spiritual CoachIf you've been feeling depressed, if you've been feeling anxious, if you've been wanting to actualize, to become this amazing, beautiful, divine, intelligent, wonderful version of you, and you have a question about how to do that, head over to JoshTrent.com/AMA.
That's where you can leave a question for myself and for Mar to go back and forth and pull from 20 plus years, 30 plus years combined of the wisdom and the life experience and the compassion and understanding that today's question is all about.
So today's question is from someone on Instagram. This is a very unique question. And the way she asked it was quite humble, actually. I can tell that in her voice, she is on the youthful side and just looking for direction in the world. And aren't we all?
But at many stages of the game, I think it's really important to know that if you ask from a pure heart, if you ask from a really positive intention, where it's not just about you, it's really about being service to others, the right wisdom will come.
So let's hear from our first question that we've had in a couple weeks actually, which is really refreshing to have.
So we got a message from Arpi. She's from Armenia And she actually wants to know her niche as a spiritual coach which is super interesting so can't wait to hear her question. Armenia, amazing.
Hello, I'm Arpi from Armenia and I am a beginner transformation and spiritual coach. I'm just starting my business and like to learn about how spiritual coaches, emerging coaches can identify their specific niche and understand how they can help people.
Of course it needs a lot of work with different coaches, experimenting and trying different new things. But I would also like to learn from other people's experiences of how exactly they understood which specific direction to take.
And for example in my case I'm very interested in manifestation, in inner child healing, in working with the feminine energy, also with money manifestation, removing money blocks. But I feel like emerging spiritual teachers, they need a lot of time and experimentation to understand the path that want to take. So if you would consider this as an interesting topic to discuss with someone, I would absolutely love to hear.
I love this because in the question, did you notice this Mar? In her question, she actually answered her own question. So what was really beautiful and humble about your question that you had said, I want these things.
I want to be able to earn a living on manifestation and inner child healing and money blocks and identifying my niche as a spiritual coach. And there's so much to unpack here, but it's so rad because when you ask the question, you ended it by saying, and I know that it takes time.
And I know that it takes time. And that is actually what I want to share with you today. You know, true wisdom, I believe, to where you can actually be compensated for it and paid for it, is when you're in the mastery process yourself, right?
True wisdom is this blending of your life experience and for yourself and others as you integrate, and that is the key, as you integrate knowledge and information to provide healing and empowerment to others, especially those who you want to serve and who may pay you for that service.
So let's go over that again, right, as a starting place.
True wisdom is this blending of your own life experience and compassionate understanding of who you are as you integrate all that you're getting, all the information, all the knowledge, as you start to synthesize and integrate this so that it's actually embodied in your nervous system in your unconscious and in the way that you speak, it really does take time.
Now what I want to say is really interesting here because I don't know that we must make money to pay rent, to pay the mortgage, to buy food, whatever it is.
So money is this vehicle of energy that I used to really misunderstand. I mean, there was a time when I would say things like, ''Rich people are assholes." or ''Money is evil." But I realized that my money blocks were created by my parents.' God loved them.
I love you, mom and dad, like you did the best you could, but that was actually handed down to them by their parents' parents. Alan Watts has a term that he calls, it's all wretch and no vomit.
So everybody teaches their children to raise children to raise their children with the same mindset. And so first and foremost, I celebrate you and I celebrate your question because this is the starting place of really amazing living. I mean, to really be alive is to do something you care about, right?
To be on purpose, to be in your passion. And so as a starting place, you answered the question yourself. How do you identify the niche that you should be coaching in? You first start with your own life experience.
What is the tangible value that you have yielded and provided to yourself by your own pain, by your own journey, and by your own understanding of who you are. Like that's first and foremost, right?
And Mar, I'm sure you can relate. You see these like 20-year-old life coaches. And it's no knock on them because intention is pure and a lot of them are master marketers and they know exactly what to say and how to use Instagram write the right nurture sequence, blah, blah, blah.
But at some point, and I heard Michael Beckwith talk about this once actually, He said if somebody isn't actually embodied in the subject in which they speak, it'll eventually burn to the ground.
In other words, you can have great marketing and you can be a great speaker find your niche and have a great lead magnet and you can understand how to speak about what it is you're teaching, but if you yourself haven't learned it, like really, really learned it, it doesn't mean you have to fall to the floor every night because you're in so much pain and that's your gift to the world, although it can be.
There are many roads to get to the summit and then once you get to that summit you're going to go to the next one. But the only way you can, in my opinion, be in integrity and charge for a service, especially in spiritual coaching, is to be a product of that which you're seeking and combine your life experience of who you are, how much value and awareness, essentially consciousness you can bring to your client, and the way you start with that is with you.
So my question for you would be, if I was coaching you, I would say, okay, you wanna find your niche, great. Write down on a piece of paper, what are 20 things that you deeply you are in the process of embodying? You, yourself. What are 20 things that you know you are in the process of embodying?
Relational dynamics, loving yourself, your own money mindset, your own money game. There are so many things that are being called forth to be actualized in you and it is only on that journey. Only on that journey that you're going to be able to have somebody pay you for the wisdom that you're gonna bring them.
ow just let that sit for a minute because it kind of flies in the face of fake it till you make it, right? There's this whole adage out there in the marketing world of fake it till you make it. I actually love something else. I love being it until you see it.
I'll give credit to my mentor and old friend Dr. Jade Teta, he taught me that. And I love it because Mar, feel into this, right? And I'll pause and get your take on something and then I'll go right back to the question because there's many layers we're unpeeling here.
When you hear the phrase, Mar, fake it until you make it, Or you hear the phrase, be it until you see it. Which one resonates with you and why?

Power Quotes From The Show Are You Feeling Alive or Asleep?"If you are not feeling alive, if you are feeling asleep, if you are feeling like you don't have access to intuition, to a deep sense of something more than your mind and your thoughts, chances are a detoxification is going to be essential. When your life force is drained, you're going to be more associated with your thoughts. But that's not you. Who are you underneath your narration of life?" - Josh Macin
Parasite Cleanse"You have to build a foundation before you start slaying parasites in the system. It's one of the most common mistakes in the holistic health world: if you have parasites, you destroy them. When they die, they release toxic gases that make you very sick that also degrade the mucus membrane in the gut so it gives you a leaky gut. If you don't know how to navigate that and you just keep flooding the body with antiparasitics, you're going to cause cellular damage." - Josh Macin
Belly = Reservoir of Energy"The belly is a primal reservoir of energy. Most people have disconnected from their belly. It is such a massive reservoir of energy and creative life force that it's part of health. It's part of being authentic. A lot of people's consciousness is resting in their heart, or in their throat, or in their mind. If you're always in your heart, you're going to get crushed by this world. The belly protects the heart." - Josh Macin
Links From Today's ShowJosh Macin was the 2010 Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu World Champion and the 2012 Pan-American champion.
Suddenly, in October 2013, he began to experience debilitating panic attacks, suicidal despair, and gut-wrenching anxiety.
After pharmaceutical drugs provided no relief, he found himself on a hero’s journey – traveling to the corners of the earth and experimenting with some of the world’s most powerful hallucinogens.
When neither ayahuasca, float tanks, fasting, meditation, colon cleaning, nor yoga could provide him with relief he began to lose faith.
In a surreal sequence of events that transpired three years after beginning the journey, he found out about heavy metal poisoning and started a comprehensive detoxification protocol.
Now, alive and well to tell the tale, Josh has created TheDetoxDudes.com – a company devoted to helping people overcome toxicity.
Wellness + Wisdom Podcast Host and Wellness Force Media CEO, Josh Trent, shares why he doesn't believe in "holding space" and explains how a man can provide containment for a woman.
Today's Questions@nachtorchis (Marieke): You asked Teal: How do I provide the containment a woman needs, all the while providing exactly that to her? Thank you so much for this incredible loving interview. It is the best interview of Teal yet. You are a very wholesome man. And you give me hope for humanity.

Listen To Episode 663 As Josh Trent Answers Your Questions [05:10] IntroWhat's up podcast world? It's Josh Trent, and this is Wellness + Wisdom. It's a place, it's a podcast, it's a movement that you and I have been living out since day one.
Since we were in our mother, since we came out of our mother, since we've been walking on the great mother. Look, we all want to have the best life possible, right? You want to thrive in this world. You don't just want to live and exist.
This podcast is about delivering the most powerful nutrients mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually, and financially that you can have so you can be the best version of yourself. We call this the Wellness Pentagon.
It's a lens that I see my life through and this lens is shaped like a pentagon. So imagine if you will, you have a glass in front of you and let's just a mirror. And the mirror is shaped like a pentagon. If one of those sides, those 5 sides that I talked about is lacking, it'll start to pull from one of the other sides.
This is something that I know to be true in my life. And on this podcast, we want to, we desire to, and we promise to give you the most nourishment, the most intelligence so you can practically apply it in your life...
[10:30] Holding Space VS Providing ContainmentSo this question today that we're going to get so awesome, Mar, I'm going to have you read it. It's actually not a question, it's something that we selected from the 957 comments that are on the Teal Swan video on YouTube.
And it was from Marieke. Can you read the question for our AMA today from @nachtorchis on YouTube?
Do you think she's from Finland? She's from the Netherlands. So, Marieke, she's telling us and kind of questioning or doubting what that means.
You asked Teal: How do I provide the containment a woman needs, all the while providing exactly that to her? Thank you so much for this incredible loving interview. It is the best interview of Teal yet. You are a very wholesome man. And you give me hope for humanity.
That's so beautiful. Wow. That'll get me up in the morning. Oh my God. Well, first, thank you for your sweet words. Like I'm not for everyone. And by the way, none of us should be for everyone. If you stand for nothing, you will fall for everything.
So I'm definitely not for everyone, but I really appreciate it to get a reflection that someone is moved by what we're doing here.
And yeah, you know, that episode with Teal was one of my favorite episodes because pushed in the face of dogma regarding the structure of traditional men, women, masculine, and feminine relationships.
One thing that she said that was so profound to me is this description of what containment is. Containment is different than holding space. And this is why the title of this AMA today is why I believe holding space is bullshit.
I'm going to share my opinion and my vantage point and what I've embodied so far about what I believe is and how I provide that to myself, my lady and my children and my business and my life.
And then I'm totally gonna flip the tables on Mar and ask her what she believes containment is from a female perspective. Because I think it's really important that we always learn in that regard. Men and women are uniquely different.
And so it is my ultimate goal to hold the sacred difference between men and women very revered at a very high level.
We live in an age, Mar, where there's a lot of gender dysphoria and, you know, in communism, we've done a clip on Mao, what Mao did in early Chinese communist theory was he took away all the clothing and cut everybody's hair the same. He tried to establish genderless societies. And that is a hallmark of communism.
And we see that happening here in North America and across the world. So today when I speak, I'm speaking from a heteronormative perspective. I totally get that people are in homosexual relationships of course valid because love is love in certain ways, and those ways get to be respected and acknowledged as well.
But everything I say today will be from a man-woman relating standpoint. And so what I believe containment is, first and foremost, is emotional regulation, emotional regulation. It's a superpower.
We talked about this with Moha, who was the founder of a company called Mendi, and we'll link that in our show notes today.
Moha described that he had learned from different colleagues and he hangs out with billionaires, and multi-billionaires across the world.
Everyone is saying the same thing, whether it's in business or relationship or family, emotional regulation is a superpower. So first and foremost, the container that's created for containment is emotional regulation. So how do we emotionally regulate ourselves as men?
First and foremost we have to become very phenomenal active listeners. You have to actually listen. Now in order for you to listen to what your woman is saying you have to first be present. So then how do you be present?
We're gonna connect, reverse engineer the dots here. So active listening, being present, and then breathing and focused attention. Focused attention is probably the one skill set that all of us can sharpen as men.
But in order to have focused attention, we have to have a habitual life away from distraction. So when I'm with my woman and I'm providing her containment, my phone is not in my hand, my phone is off. I'm not distracted by a screen. I'm not thinking about anything else.
And this is where the real rubber meets the road of application. If I want to contain, if I want to provide containment that my woman can really rest in and trust me in, then first and foremost, emotional regulation, focused attention, clearing out distraction.
Then the number one thing to really light a fire in all of this is breathing. What I do when there's a high-tension moment with Carrie Michelle and I, is I'll actually check my jaw because most of us hold tension in our jaw. That's the main place.
And when you're holding tension in your jaw, it cues your vagus nerve that you're in fight or flight, and that makes you less. So I check my jaw, I make sure that I'm breathing into my stomach, when I inhale my belly rises, when I exhale my belly falls, that's first and foremost.
Go to the breath as an anchor, anchor, anchor, anchor. I'm sure you've heard about this a thousand times more in our world of wellness. It's like, we all know breathwork is so important, but are you actually doing it? Are you actually doing it?
And I'll say this, ladies and gents, the more severe the threat, or the more severe the perceived threat, like if a woman comes into a living room and says, you didn't take out the trash, you know, screaming or something, which if she's a conscious woman, she's not gonna do that too often anyways.
And maybe we can get to that when you share more about how a woman can actually receive containment and respect and be a co-creator in being contained.
By the way, containment does not mean control, right? If I'm containing the space for a woman, I'm not holding the space because holding the space is actually kind energetic thing.
When I hear the phrase hold space, I physically have to hold something. It's actually not the case. It's more about just letting the space be what it is and containing, putting boundaries around that space so that I don't become emotionally dysregulated. That's the superpower y'all that we're talking about today...

And they have some of the most sophisticated equipment in the form of AI on the planet to do that as well. There's a war with an unprecedented level of sophistication that is being waged against you as a consumer every single day to extract your money from your bank account and put it in somebody else's. - Mike Dillard

What are the best tools to optimize your brain and body?
Mark Effinger, Biochemist and Founder of Nootopia, joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom podcast, special replay of episode 593, to discuss the powerful positive effects nootropics have on the human brain and body, how to balance Acetylcholine levels, why you need dopamine and drive to obtain best possible results, and the benefits of taking GABA and glutamate supplements.
"The way that nootropics work is they affect neurochemicals that are available in your gut: serotonin, adrenaline, norepinephrine, and dopamine. They activate certain neurochemical processes in the brain and they also provide the raw products so that your brain can create the neurochemicals necessary. They also support neurogenesis which is the blooming and creation of new neurons." - Mark Effinger

Mark Effinger is a seasoned entrepreneur and intrapreneur with specialties in biochemistry and hormone and brain optimization. He is successful in industries from marketing to lasers to software. Companies turn to him for his clear grasp of the startup-to-sellout process.
The death of Mark's former wife from a painkiller overdose put him on the path to creating high-performance nutritional supplements.
After 4 years of development, he released a product called “Limitless NZT-48,” as in the movie Limitless, with 3,500% growth over the first year (now 5,100% over 29 months).
Mark considers the biggest challenge with nootropics to be that everyone’s brain chemistry is unique. For the first time ever, Nootopia has solved this with a personalized process and product.
They use your information to evaluate your goals and brain chemistry, then customize their nine core blends. Whether you want to say goodbye to afternoon energy crashes, increase your verbal fluency, boost your emotional intelligence, or reach other optimization goals, Nootopia gets you 100% personal help every single day.
The system even comes with an app that guides you every step of the journey and allows you to give feedback to customize your blends even further.
Mark's vision is for the resources from the company to move the needle in terms of making a difference while they make healthy profits. He firmly believes that Nootopia can add value both locally and globally.

Are your probiotics helping you heal your gut or are you just wasting your money?
Tina Anderson, Co-Founder of Just Thrive, joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 658, to explain why most probiotics are not real probiotics, how spore-based probiotics heal the gut microbiome, why gut health is essential for your mental health and brain function, and what the healing protocol for the gut consists of.
"99.99% of probiotics die by the time they get to the intestines. If a probiotic needs to be refrigerated in order to stay alive, it wouldn't even survive on the store shelf which means it could never survive your body temperature. Spore-based probiotic has this endospore shell around itself which allows it to be a very hardy organism and survive the journey from the mouth through the gastric system into the intestines." - Tina Anderson
20% Off Just Thrive ProbioticsThere are hundreds of brands of probiotics on the market, but as you’ve probably already discovered, they are not all equal.
Just Thrive® is the first 100% spore-forming probiotic and antioxidant supplement that arrives 100% alive to your intestines that's available in the retail market.
Just Thrive® contains a patented strain called Bacillus Indicus HU36® – bacillus strains are abundant environmental organisms that are a normal part of the human microflora.
This strain, Bacillus Indicus HU36®, produces antioxidants/ carotenoids (the nutrients that give red peppers and tomatoes their color) in your intestines where they can be best absorbed by the body, making it one of the most absorbable forms of antioxidants on the market. These spores have been successfully used to enhance digestive health for more than 50 years!

Power Quotes From The Show Most Bacteria Are Good For You"We have to remember that bacteria is our friend. Less than 1% of bacteria is actually harmful. The overwhelming majority of bacteria is so beneficial, if not critical for our overall health." - Tina Anderson
Gut-Brain Connection"The vagus nerve connects from the brainstem down to our intestines. The brain is sending signals to the gut and the gut is sending signals to the brain. Many neurotransmitters are produced in our gut. 90% of our serotonin is produced in our gut, and GABA and dopamine are produced in our gut as well. So there is a total connection between the gut and the brain and the brain and the gut." - Tina Anderson
Most Probiotics Are Not Real Probiotics"The overwhelming majority of probiotics on the market are dying by the time they hit the intestines because the stomach acid is killing it. And so we're getting dead bacteria. We could call them metabolic response modifiers but they're not probiotics. They may provide some symptomatic relief but they're not making a true change in the microbiome." - Tina Anderson

Tina Anderson worked in the pharmaceutical field for 15 years. Together with their family, they had built thriving careers.
But, while successful, their careers were not feeding their passion for natural health and well-being.
Just Thrive Co-founder and CEO is available to talk about following your passion (she left a career as an attorney in the pharmaceutical industry to launch Just Thrive), living with gratitude, and the critical importance of gut health and immune support.
