Zen Commuter

Holding tight to ideas is a sure way to stay stagnant, never growing, never learning.  As ZEN commuters you surely know this.  Unfortunately the line between narrow minded and open is somewhat speculative.  Some people feel that they are free thinkers yet still holding fast to dogma they were fed as children.

Others are simply set in their ways.  Today I will argue the case for open-mindedness and once on board, how to achieve a greater sense of it

How having an open mind gives you energy

The ways that having an open mind opens you up to being loved

How the world grows in scope when you are open-minded

The benefits of creativity and problem solving

There are ways we get things done in a day.  There are things that happen to us daily.  What would you say if I told you that absolutely every one of them was your creation.  Your getting fired, your car accident, absolutely everything.

To understand this controversial topic we are going to need to talk about the three different types of thought and action.  Our soul's purpose is one of them.

It seems so logical, how you view the world determines how you will experience your life.  If you feel like you are swimming in a cesspool how much joy do you think you will experience?  Conversely if you are in a meadow on a sunshine day, what do you think you will realize?  Your environment does dictate how you will feel day to day, but more so, your perception of the environment is even more critical.  if you think the world is a crappy place filled with mean spirited people, not only will you take note of that, you will be miserable.

Today I talk about how to cultivate a positive view of the world.

There are so many ways to become introspective.  There's meditation for one.  There is a great resource for learning about who you are though and it is often overlooked.  It's your enemies.  We choose them and the reason is clear to an evolved soul, to teach us lessons.

Today I talk about 4 ways your enemies help you become wiser.

This week has been incredibly informative in regards to one of the most vilified nutrients in a healthy diet.  Ever since I can remember it was almost certain that eating a large amount of saturated fat was the equivalent of asking for heart disease. That has since been disproved.  It is still very important to moderate fat intake.  However, as you learned this week, there are some fats that actually aid in your health.  I am going to talk about the five that pack the biggest punch.

What You Will Learn in this Episode:

• What 5 High Fat Foods also aid in your health.
• What foods boost brain activity
• What foods raise HDL cholesterol

It seems like there are fifty million specific diets being touted on TV and on the internet.  They all have one goal, to make you lean and sexy, a value to society.  Once you reach your ultimate body you will be a warrior admired by all, a sexy bombshell who is valued above all else for her beauty.

Le's just cut all that BS out and focus on what really matters, being healthy.  Living a long life that you can use to benefit the world.  One way to be healthy is to watch what you eat, and while there are conflicting ideas about carbohydrates, there is equal uncertainty about dietary fat.  Today I will demystify the various types of dietary fat in an effort to help you limit your intake of those fats that are damaging.

• The difference between the various forms of dietary fat.
• The recommended daily amount of each of these fats
• What foods contain different types of fat
• New research about saturated fat

Yesterday I talked about brown fat and how it is actually a fat we want to encourage.  Today's fats we definitely don't want to create.  The fats I will talk about today pose significant health risks and that is why we will talk about ways to limit their production.

Fat is not simply an aesthetic concern, it goes much deeper, right down to our organs actually.  Health and fitness don't concern themselves with bikini season or a six pack summer, it's about taking care of your body so it will be around to experience all the seasons. Come Listen

Things you will learn in this Episode:

The difference between three different types of body fat

How to reduce health risks with sleep and meditation

How different types of body fat impact your health
