11. The Science of Spirituality & How Your Focus Becomes Your Reality with Happiness Coach Dan Hennessey · The Woo Report: Everyday Spirituality

  Raise your hand if quantum physics makes your brain explode.
• 0:05
  Yes. Same.
• 0:07
  Before this conversation, the closest I got to quantum physics was that movie interstellar.
• 0:11
  Love that movie so much.
• 0:13
  But even during this conversation with happiness coach and quantum physics enthusiast Dan Hennessy, I found myself needing a moment to catch up.
• 0:22
  But after editing this episode and spending a little time with ChatGPT, things really started to click.
• 0:28
  If you don't know quantum physics is the study of the tiniest building blocks of our universe.
• 0:34
  Particles like atoms and light, and how they behave at the subatomic level where the rules are very different from what we experience in everyday life.
• 0:44
  In this world, when we're all zoomed in, quantum physics says particles can be in two places at once.
• 0:52
  They can influence each other instantly, no matter the distance and possibilities.
• 0:58
  They exist in infinite form until we choose one.
• 1:02
  By observing it.
• 1:02
  So in other words, quantum physics is the science of the unseen.
• 1:08
  It shows us that at our core, we are not solid matter.
• 1:12
  We are vibrate energy, and our thoughts and beliefs can actually shape what becomes real.
• 1:19
  So I saw one of Dan's viral videos where he's showing an article citing the theory that death may not even exist according to quantum physics, and then he mentions that he had a near-death experience.
• 1:30
  So as someone who's been there, I felt an instant resonance.
• 1:34
  Dan speaks about that experience as something loving and expansive, and listening to him felt like remembering something I already knew.
• 1:43
  In this episode, Dan takes all that quantum brilliance and he channels it into something radically useful how to feel good, how to thrive, how to age in reverse.
• 1:55
  The first half of this combo is a very big picture, a very quantum death mind expansion.
• 2:01
  Then in the second half, we get practical.
• 2:03
  Dan shares grounded, accessible tools you can actually use in this reality to feel better and find happiness right now.
• 2:13
  I do hope you're still with me because yes, this is a total mindfuck.
• 2:18
  But also, let's fucking go.
• 2:23
  Hi, I'm Laura Scott Patty, filmmaker and woo woo enthusiast here today to cut through the noise, pull back the veil, and cozy up in the space between reality and spirituality.
• 2:36
  Thanks for listening to the Woo report.
• 2:41
  Dan Hennessy, thank you so much for being on the moon for it.
• 2:46
  So happy you're here.
• 2:47
  Thank you for having me. It's an honor.
• 2:49
  I came across one of your videos where you talked about how your near-death experience felt extremely expansive to you and the way that you described it.
• 3:01
  I had never heard it described.
• 3:03
  And, as you may know, I had a near-death experience as well.
• 3:07
  And I watched that video of you 100 times explaining how it wasn't.
• 3:14
  I was like, this resonates so much with me.
• 3:16
  So I would love to hear about your experience and how it expands you.
• 3:21
  Please, like, let's get into all the details.
• 3:24
  I've always been fascinated with the idea of dying and death since I was a kid.
• 3:29
  My first like, real experience with death.
• 3:31
  And this is this is I'm just giving some backstory here.
• 3:33
  So you kind of see where I'm coming from.
• 3:35
  my first experience of death, I was like, in the second grade and my grandfather passed away, and I like basically witnessed it sort of from like a distance.
• 3:46
  and it was like really weird because, like, I felt the transition, I sort of saw something, you know, we'll call it like a soul maybe.
• 3:54
  Whatever.
• 3:55
  I didn't know I didn't have these words when I was a young kid.
• 3:59
  and then I witnessed everybody around me change, like just this dark cloud, like sadness.
• 4:05
  You know, you're obviously you're mourning a loved one.
• 4:07
  But I didn't have that response.
• 4:09
  And it's funny because my sister was, like, bawling, crying.
• 4:12
  And I was just like, what is everybody so sad about?
• 4:14
  Like, I don't get it, you know?
• 4:16
  And I'm in the second grade, so it's not like I'm a looks like a super little kid.
• 4:19
  Like, you know, I'm pretty.
• 4:21
  I was pretty aware of certain things or whatever.
• 4:24
  So that was like my first experience with it and it made me I was basically taught to be sad about it.
• 4:30
  Right.
• 4:31
  And then, you know, life goes on and you do other things and blah, blah, blah.
• 4:34
  So you start to develop this the way beliefs work are.
• 4:38
  They're just thoughts that we keep repeating over and over and over and over and over again.
• 4:41
  And then you're like 18, 20, 25, 30 and you go, this is the way life is.
• 4:46
  But it's really just a thought that you had.
• 4:48
  It's really, you know, and if somebody comes in with a better thought that you latch on to for whatever reason, now you think the world is like that.
• 4:56
  Right.
• 4:56
  So the only thing that will ever truly shift your experience and this is important for the discussion we'll probably have is words can't teach you.
• 5:05
  It doesn't matter how many books are re doesn't matter how many speakers you go see speak.
• 5:08
  And all of these things are great.
• 5:08
  I've read all the books.
• 5:10
  I've bought so many courses, I've hired so many coaches in my life for various things.
• 5:15
  Those are all great things to do.
• 5:16
  But what it comes down to is your true, real life, authentic experience that is undoubtably to your heart.
• 5:26
  You know, like the things that you were really very witness that somebody version of it.
• 5:30
  I always tell clients like, I can give you a bunch of pamphlets about sex and we can talk about sex all day, right?
• 5:36
  But until you're in between the sheets doing your thing, you really don't know what that's about.
• 5:40
  Totally.
• 5:42
  You really know? Yeah.
• 5:43
  And that's that is the beauty of physical, human experience.
• 5:46
  We're living in this dream world.
• 5:48
  This is like a virtual reality first player immersive adventure game dream.
• 5:54
  And we get to choose all of these different things and what death does.
• 5:58
  And I think why a lot of people now, because there's so many near-death experiences.
• 6:02
  It's like been an explosion over the last 20 years of or at least maybe people feel uncomfortable to report them.
• 6:09
  where we're starting to wake up beyond the illusion of that framework because all fears, every single fear you've ever had and that anybody's ever had that's ever been alive as a human being is based on this fundamental fear of death.
• 6:23
  And once you get a glimpse of something different than that, once you see the magic trick, then you're like, oh, she didn't really pull the rabbit out of nowhere.
• 6:32
  That was planned, right? It's an illusion.
• 6:34
  Now. I see the illusion.
• 6:34
  So I have a different thing.
• 6:37
  I can still respect that magician. Wow.
• 6:38
  He really pulled that trick off really well.
• 6:41
  But, you know, you have more context, so it's like we're getting this glimpse and people are spreading the word.
• 6:48
  They're they're writing about it.
• 6:49
  They're doing podcasts about, you know, all these different things.
• 6:51
  There's there's conferences being held about it.
• 6:53
  There's people that are dedicating scientific research to this, and they're all coming to the same conclusion.
• 6:58
  There is no such thing as death.
• 7:01
  And if you can, of course, you can get that on an intellectual level.
• 7:04
  Most people can do that.
• 7:05
  But if you can practice feeling that.
• 7:08
  And here's the interesting thing is everybody who's already had a near-death experience, there's not one person on the planet that hasn't experienced it.
• 7:16
  They just don't necessarily remember it.
• 7:18
  It's kind of like the same way we all dream, but not every night you remember your dreams.
• 7:23
  It's not everybody's journey or past to understand that.
• 7:26
  Oh, way of saying that is, fear is a part of people's journey and a part of the equation because they're here for a certain theme that they chose from a soul perspective.
• 7:36
  It's like playing a video game, like, say, your favorite game is a game where you have to shoot people and you love this game, and you get the new one every year.
• 7:45
  Well, if they remove the death factor out of that game, there'd be no point to it.
• 7:50
  You wouldn't like that game anymore.
• 7:52
  So certain souls have signed up to really feel that experience.
• 7:58
  the beautiful thing is, if you don't experience it firsthand, you might experience a loved one passing away and that could awakening you too.
• 8:06
  So the universe is so magnificent and beautiful and perfect and beyond our conceptual understanding that all of these different infinite possibilities can be playing out simultaneously, which they are.
• 8:20
  And sciences now showing us through quantum mechanics and quantum physics, which I'm sure we'll get into us.
• 8:25
  My guest. Yes. Send help on that.
• 8:28
  Well, basically what they're showing us is that the world that you grew up in, that you were taught from ages 0 to 20 at that school is not real.
• 8:38
  These are these are certain threads.
• 8:40
  They're a part of the mixture, but they're not the entirety.
• 8:44
  There's in other words, there's way more to the story.
• 8:47
  There's way more to the story. Yes.
• 8:48
  And whatever you focus on this is this might be the theme of this talk.
• 8:52
  Whatever you focus on becomes true for you.
• 8:59
  This is why half the country can vote for this person, have to vote.
• 9:03
  This is why people want to go to war.
• 9:05
  Some people want peace.
• 9:06
  This is why some people are racist and some people are not.
• 9:09
  This is why some people are in great shape and some it's all about what you truly believe to be true.
• 9:16
  That what you try to convince other people you think is true, right?
• 9:20
  There's a lot of convincing.
• 9:21
  Just go to the comments section of any any interview everybody's trying to prove.
• 9:25
  And if you're true, if you truly knew something, here's another add on.
• 9:29
  If you truly knew something, would you even have to argue it?
• 9:34
  And the answer would be no, right?
• 9:35
  And you don't argue like if my name is Dan, right?
• 9:38
  Yeah. I'm not going to argue with that.
• 9:40
  You're like, no you didn't Bill. Yeah, right.
• 9:42
  Okay.
• 9:43
  If that's what you want it to be. Right.
• 9:45
  Yeah I don't if you and what you're saying is like if you're truly grounded in your beliefs that your name is Dan, because I feel like there's like a lot of arguing going on, but people are, are really are trying to convince others.
• 9:58
  But I walk me through that.
• 10:01
  The simplest way to explain this is who cares?
• 10:03
  Yeah, right.
• 10:07
  You think that Earth is flat?
• 10:08
  I think the Earth is round.
• 10:10
  Somebody who thinks the Earth is a triangle. Yeah.
• 10:12
  Who cares?
• 10:13
  What's for lunch? Yeah.
• 10:15
  Who cares?
• 10:16
  Yeah, yeah.
• 10:17
  If you think this is the best president.
• 10:19
  You think this is the worst president?
• 10:19
  You think the world is ending?
• 10:21
  Yeah. Who cares? Right?
• 10:22
  Expect me when a cup since I was born, my birthday's coming up in a few months.
• 10:26
  I'm turning 38.
• 10:27
  Since I was born, the world has been ending for one reason or another.
• 10:32
  It's true. World War three.
• 10:34
  Why is UK 911, 2008 market collapse, blah blah blah blah blah.
• 10:39
  You know, this pandemic, that pandemic.
• 10:42
  And yet I'm still here, right?
• 10:45
  And life goes on.
• 10:46
  And in fact, it's the best it's ever been.
• 10:48
  If you truly dig into just statistics and science, which I like to do as a fun game. Yes.
• 10:53
  Look, people take it way too seriously because again, you're creating the truth, right?
• 10:58
  And this is what's proven actually, in 2022, there's a Nobel Prize given out to show that the universe is not locally real.
• 11:04
  And this ties back into quantum physics and mechanics.
• 11:07
  The universe is not locally real, is what the headline title is of the Nobel Prize in 2022.
• 11:14
  What that means is what we're doing right now is not real in the sense that it has definite, definitive properties that are consistent.
• 11:27
  So we're living in a literal simulation dream illusion and every ancient culture, every religion that goes back at least a couple hundred years talks about this.
• 11:38
  They're all saying the same thing, including great philosophers, including Albert Einstein, including Max Planck, including and, you know, pick your favorite genre of whatever.
• 11:46
  And if you dig deep enough into what they're truly saying sometimes off the record, because at the time, they weren't allowed.
• 11:52
  To write.
• 11:53
  Here's what here's here's it, here it is.
• 11:55
  Here's a here's the whole universe in a couple of sentences.
• 11:58
  You exist eternally, forever.
• 12:01
  There's no getting around that since you're here, since you exist, everything that exists already exists, and it will always exist.
• 12:07
  That's the nature of Eternality two is everything is here and now everything.
• 12:13
  All the things that are possible to be.
• 12:15
  Things are here and now.
• 12:17
  There's only one moment and it's called now, which is actually a not a measurement of time, but a description of eternality.
• 12:25
  Everything has to be here now in order for you to have any kind of experience.
• 12:29
  And we get to choose and select how we want to play that game.
• 12:33
  Well, there's there's a couple more things.
• 12:35
  If you want to get to.
• 12:35
  The eternality part.
• 12:37
  There's there's obviously beliefs that when we die and our body is no longer here, that that's the end.
• 12:44
  Sure, people believe that it's true.
• 12:47
  And so what you're saying is that's not true.
• 12:51
  Well, it's one version of reality that you make true through your belief.
• 12:54
  That you make true.
• 12:56
  But remember, you can't spell the word belief without life.
• 12:59
  All beliefs are lives or better, say they're a piece of the truth.
• 13:05
  They're your own personal reality.
• 13:06
  You have your own personal reality right now.
• 13:09
  You're seeing a blue chair behind me.
• 13:11
  But we're not seeing we're experiencing the same exact chair.
• 13:14
  Actually, yes.
• 13:16
  Your blue's a little different than mine, but I get to actually feel it and touch it, right?
• 13:20
  You just have a perception, so you're never actually.
• 13:23
  I mean, my wife talked about this all the time.
• 13:24
  We've been together for going on 20 years.
• 13:27
  Next year it'll be 20 years through dating and stuff like that.
• 13:29
  And we're next to each other like 24/7.
• 13:32
  And yet we still get a totally different representation of reality, even from just hearing a song.
• 13:37
  I miss a lyric, or she gets a different meaning out of it, or this or that.
• 13:40
  So we've been taught that we need to go round and understand everybody and put yourself in their shoes and try to empathize.
• 13:49
  This is all leading to the conflict that we find ourselves in.
• 13:55
  You will never know what it's like.
• 13:57
  My wife is a Haitian woman born in Haiti.
• 13:59
  I will never know what it's like to be a woman, even if I get a sex change.
• 14:04
  you know, a version of a woman that was born as a woman.
• 14:06
  I will never get that experience in this body.
• 14:09
  I've never know what it's like to have black skin or be from a different country or any of those kinds of things, and it's silly for me to attempt to even think that I could.
• 14:18
  Right? It's almost disrespectful.
• 14:21
  and that goes the same for you or the stranger on the street, or the president, or the terrorist, or the murderer or the rapist, or the things that you don't like.
• 14:30
  And yet it's all this is the third thing I was going to get to.
• 14:34
  The all is in the one in the one is in the all, the all.
• 14:38
  Let's call that God the all of it, which we can't even really describe, is actually contained in every single molecule, atom, subatomic particle.
• 14:48
  The whole entire universe is inside of you.
• 14:51
  So what you think God is, is you actually experiencing itself as an individuation, as a separate entity, as a something with perspective so that experience can play out?
• 15:05
  Oh my gosh, I'm so obsessed with all of this.
• 15:09
  Yeah.
• 15:09
  But I want to get granular into your reality then talk about what happened when you almost died.
• 15:18
  Yeah.
• 15:18
  So this is what death is.
• 15:20
  It's a basically it's a chemical release of DMT from your pineal gland.
• 15:25
  This happens when you're born a huge burst of DMT flood your system.
• 15:29
  This happens when you dream at night, and it happens when you ultimately leave your body.
• 15:33
  It's a transcendental molecule that allows you to shift dimensions or reality to have and a more expansive experience.
• 15:42
  So if you've ever dreamed you've died and everybody's had a dream, everybody's been to sleep.
• 15:47
  Every time you do that, it's essentially a death.
• 15:49
  And what we can really say in every moment you're dying to a new version of yourself in every single moment that you can possibly fraction down to a billionth of a second.
• 15:58
  Constantly changing, constantly changing.
• 16:00
  It's just that you keep choosing and repeating similar patterns so you get a similar experience.
• 16:04
  But it's actually not.
• 16:05
  You can't step in the same river twice.
• 16:07
  The river is changing and you are changing simultaneously.
• 16:10
  So with that being said, when we have an actual physical death experience, what you're doing is just taking everything that you've learned.
• 16:18
  Imagine like a book of life that you've learned and you are shredding it to pieces and you're going, oh, I thought it was like this.
• 16:26
  And now you know more.
• 16:28
  In the same way, if you've never had an experience in anything and then you have that experience, oh, I thought running a business was like this from the outside.
• 16:37
  Now I'm actually in the driver's seat and it's way different than I thought, or marriage or etc. etc.
• 16:43
  playing an instrument, whatever. Yeah.
• 16:45
  So when I so my experience was I did a DMT ceremonial experience with a shaman in Costa Rica.
• 16:53
  Ayahuasca.
• 16:55
  No DMT, I smoke DMT.
• 16:56
  Okay. Is it ayahuasca. Is it DMT.
• 16:59
  Come in ayahuasca tour I don't know, I feel like maybe it is.
• 17:01
  Yeah.
• 17:02
  So the analogy is edibles versus smoking cannabis.
• 17:06
  Ayahuasca is like the edible version.
• 17:08
  So it goes through your digestive system.
• 17:10
  So it's like an 8 to 10 hour experience that takes you through all this very dramatic stuff.
• 17:15
  I've done it. Yeah.
• 17:16
  Oh yeah. Yeah.
• 17:17
  So me and DMT smoking the the powdery substance is like the rocket ship version.
• 17:23
  it lasts 10 to 15 minutes and it's, it's it's instantaneous death if you, if you take a large enough dosage, which I did, but I did a lot of preparation before that.
• 17:35
  I did a lot of research before that.
• 17:36
  I worked with people that knew what they were doing.
• 17:39
  I meditated for a long period, like, I really cleared my system out to have a really positive experience.
• 17:47
  that was my version of it.
• 17:48
  So that is the equivalent.
• 17:50
  It's the same exact thing to having a fatal car accident, and you die and then come back.
• 17:55
  It's the exact same experience minus the car accident.
• 17:58
  What happens is before we die, you never feel pain.
• 18:02
  You never feel the death experience.
• 18:04
  If you get shot in the head or fall off a building or whatever, you never actually experience what we witnessed as super painful.
• 18:12
  that never actually happens before that happens, a huge release of DMT occurs and you're out.
• 18:18
  It's like turning off the video game or taking off the VR headset, and now you're like, oh man, that was wild.
• 18:27
  And you just reemerge back into who you really are, the 99% of you, which is nonphysical energy, spirit, soul, source, God, etc., who you really are, you expand back into that and it's like waking up from a dream.
• 18:39
  Like, man, I dream is really crazy.
• 18:41
  I really thought that was happening.
• 18:43
  Super, super realistic.
• 18:45
  And this is how dreams work, right?
• 18:46
  Like if you had a nightmare last night where you're running away from a murderer, you wake up and we hook you up to medical equipment.
• 18:53
  Your body, your biology is responding as if you woke.
• 18:56
  There was a murderer chasing it, breathing heavy.
• 18:59
  You're sweating.
• 19:00
  You know cortisol is up. All this kind of stuff.
• 19:04
  So did it actually happen?
• 19:06
  Your body doesn't care, right?
• 19:09
  So your experience becomes your truth.
• 19:13
  So again, as we realize that our focusing and this is what quantum mechanics and quantum physics are showing us, as soon as you zoom in on something and try to measure it, it changes the thing you think is really real and really solid and really fixed.
• 19:29
  And really this is, you know, no, it's not, it's actually not.
• 19:35
  But through our belief systems, we create that experience.
• 19:42
  We're so incredibly powerful.
• 19:44
  We are the divine.
• 19:46
  We're not disconnected.
• 19:47
  We're not separate.
• 19:47
  We're just an extension of the same thing because we are that we can create any experience, even the experience that we're not powerful, any experience.
• 20:00
  It's just like it kind of makes your head explode a little bit because I feel like, you know, you talk about how Albert Einstein said this and, you know, there's all these philosophers that are saying that this is a simulation.
• 20:15
  And yet in 2025, I would say, like, what is the majority of people on this planet right now that believe it's a simulation?
• 20:24
  Is it a success?
• 20:25
  It's growing, but it's still a small number. Right.
• 20:28
  Or do you think it's a puzzle?
• 20:29
  Which depends on what you think small is.
• 20:31
  You know, you take 1% of 8 billion, 1% of 8 billion is a lot of people.
• 20:35
  That's true.
• 20:36
  I think I think it's actually closer to like ten, 15 or maybe even 20%.
• 20:40
  And here's what I've actually found is all these fringe topics, whatever you think is the most fringe, just fringes, taboo fringe.
• 20:46
  Yeah.
• 20:47
  Don't don't go to a bar in new Jersey or go to a bar in California.
• 20:50
  Go travel and go get a beer with somebody.
• 20:54
  They're like, yeah, man, I had contact with aliens.
• 20:56
  Yeah, I had a near-death experience.
• 20:57
  Yeah, I, I smoked this, I did that. Yeah.
• 21:00
  It's not weird.
• 21:01
  We're being fed a certain narrative, right?
• 21:04
  And a mainstream narrative.
• 21:06
  This is what what is reality? Yeah.
• 21:08
  Who gets to decide what that is? The news.
• 21:11
  Right?
• 21:11
  Yeah. Right. I think so.
• 21:12
  So many times. Don't go to this country is dangerous.
• 21:14
  And then I went to that country.
• 21:15
  I met the most amazing people in my life that treated me better than my real family.
• 21:20
  Right?
• 21:22
  I'm from new Jersey, new Jersey, the most dangerous place on the planet as far as I'm concerned.
• 21:27
  And everybody in new Jersey is extremely amazing, right?
• 21:30
  But if you watch the Jersey shore show and you take everybody's like, whoever those characters are, which are they're playing a character, so then you think everybody's like that, but how could that be?
• 21:41
  There's millions of people here, right?
• 21:42
  And there's so there's no such thing as an American or Republican, a, you know, whatever.
• 21:48
  Label labels are limiting, but they can be useful if you do it loosely, just like you have a belief that's loosely.
• 21:55
  And what we're doing now is we're shifting from beliefs, which means I don't really know.
• 22:00
  I don't really know.
• 22:01
  In my heart, I believe it to knowing what do I truly know?
• 22:06
  Let me.
• 22:07
  And this is what chaos.
• 22:08
  This is the benefit of chaos or perceived chaos where disorder is now.
• 22:13
  I really have to hang my hat on the things I hang my hat on.
• 22:17
  Now I really got to see.
• 22:18
  Okay, well, how do I feel about this?
• 22:20
  You know what is going on over there with those people or this government or this?
• 22:25
  What do I really feel?
• 22:26
  What's really going on here as opposed to just being a zombie, going along, marching, you know, with the marching orders and five when you were five years old, you got this when you were five years old.
• 22:36
  If I talk to a five year old about all this stuff, they're like, yeah, this makes total sense.
• 22:39
  Of course everything's magic, right?
• 22:41
  There's a spaceship, there's a yeah, I'm actually a princess. And.
• 22:46
  I live on. Right.
• 22:47
  Because that's the actual reality.
• 22:49
  They're actually more tuned in and then we effectively beat it out of that.
• 22:53
  We're scared out of them, you know?
• 22:55
  And it's not that you can't teach people certain practical, grounded things, but you don't need to scare the crap out of them.
• 23:01
  And in fact, all of our science now shows if you want to learn something really fast, like a new language or quantum mechanics or anything, make it as fun as possible and your speed of learning increases by 400%. Wow, that's a great.
• 23:19
  Circle.
• 23:19
  So you've heard of like the 10,000 hour rule?
• 23:21
  No. Tell me this is an old concept.
• 23:24
  it's in a lot of self-help books, like at if you practice something for 10,000 hours, you make sure.
• 23:29
  Yes. What if you do it in a really fun way.
• 23:32
  You divide that by 400%.
• 23:35
  You know what I'm saying. Yeah.
• 23:36
  So you increase your rate of learning if it's joyful.
• 23:40
  And again what if you look at any of these studies or your life experience.
• 23:44
  Just look at things you're really good at or that come naturally to you.
• 23:47
  Do you have a generally positive, joyful association with that thing, or do you have a generally negative association with that thing?
• 23:53
  And ten times out of ten, you will find that, oh, I was naturally good at soccer because you loved it.
• 23:58
  You know, you're naturally good.
• 24:00
  You're actually good at doing this podcast.
• 24:02
  You can tell you're great. Thank you.
• 24:04
  And you're probably have a great time.
• 24:06
  I love doing it. Yeah. So fun. Right.
• 24:08
  And so that's it.
• 24:09
  That's that. You can if you walk away with nothing.
• 24:12
  And you know, getting into the minutia is great.
• 24:14
  I love some good minutia.
• 24:16
  But but but really all you have to know is what you knew when you were five.
• 24:21
  You're supposed to be having fun.
• 24:23
  You're supposed to be creating and play, and everything else is just kind of small potatoes.
• 24:27
  And you can figure it out along the way.
• 24:29
  And you're you were built with everything you came with everything.
• 24:32
  You came prepackaged, not only with the stuff you need, but with the stuff you will need as you progress.
• 24:38
  Just like a tree has everything it needs, and that little seed that grows to be that big thing it has, everything is needed.
• 24:44
  And nature, the universe is providing all the other stuff if need be.
• 24:50
  I love it so. So help me for it.
• 24:53
  So you know, we're not five anymore.
• 24:55
  Now we're like in our 30s, 40s, and we've collected all this conditioning and we've collected these beliefs that we hold and believe to be true.
• 25:05
  And now if we're starting to, like, crack out of that shell and, you know, for the sake of this podcast and like, I'm all in, I'm all in, like, I don't necessarily need the quantum physics of the quantum mechanics to like, it's just fun. It's it's fun.
• 25:19
  But I know that some people are feeling like science based and, you know, can you can you help me?
• 25:24
  For a girl who studied television, radio and film in college, like, what the heck is quantum mechanics?
• 25:30
  Like, what is quantum physics?
• 25:32
  I just, I don't know, like, please help.
• 25:35
  Okay, so if I was going to explain this to a five year old, it's imagine a box, okay.
• 25:41
  And imagine a ball inside of that box.
• 25:44
  Okay. Right.
• 25:45
  Simple. A box with a ball. Yeah.
• 25:48
  When you're not looking inside the box, you don't know where the ball is.
• 25:54
  As soon as you open the box and look in and you see the ball, the ball's there.
• 25:59
  And whatever possible million types of positions it could be in, that's all quantum mechanics is really saying.
• 26:06
  And they're putting equations around that.
• 26:07
  It's the mathematical understanding of the nature of our reality, which is this flux state.
• 26:15
  So in other words, is the ball.
• 26:19
  It's this is the old Schrodinger's cat thing, you know, is the cat alive or dead?
• 26:24
  Is the ball there?
• 26:25
  If I'm not observing something, is it truly actually there?
• 26:28
  Right.
• 26:29
  I feel like I've heard this said like if a tree falls in a forest, does it make a sound?
• 26:33
  Right?
• 26:34
  And like like, yeah, it does make a sound, though.
• 26:37
  I just don't hear it because I'm not standing there.
• 26:39
  But who is ever there?
• 26:40
  There's like a bunny there. Like the bunny hears it, right?
• 26:43
  If there is observation, there is experience.
• 26:48
  but the universe itself is aware and observing itself.
• 26:53
  So again, it really comes back to this idea of who cares because, because, because everybody that's listening to this will walk away with their own version of. Right.
• 27:03
  And so now they'll go down that path of, well, I think that this is true.
• 27:06
  That guy with a long hair is a hippie.
• 27:08
  He's crazy, you know, and that's fine to that person.
• 27:13
  You're right. Yeah, you're absolutely right.
• 27:15
  I'm a crazy person and that's somebody.
• 27:17
  And then somebody else will walk away and go, you know what?
• 27:19
  That guy's actually pretty cool.
• 27:19
  He's pretty brilliant.
• 27:20
  Let me go check out some of this stuff.
• 27:21
  Yeah, we will be right as well. Right.
• 27:23
  Because you are carrying that frequency.
• 27:26
  So it's really and this is what I try to get people past because we treat science like a religion.
• 27:30
  Science is the new religion. Yes, totally.
• 27:33
  And so that's what people people treat.
• 27:36
  you know, Marvel comic movies like religion.
• 27:39
  I love a marvel movie. Yeah, for sure.
• 27:41
  They'll have the pictures on the wall.
• 27:42
  They know all this?
• 27:42
  Yeah. Theology and mythology.
• 27:45
  They love that.
• 27:46
  It doesn't matter because it's all.
• 27:48
  Everything is everything.
• 27:49
  So it's all spiritual.
• 27:51
  It's all.
• 27:51
  You don't have to try to be spiritual.
• 27:52
  It's already. It already is. Right?
• 27:54
  You know, it's like, again, the all is in the one in the one is in the on.
• 27:58
  The fourth thing is, and this is what I've been talking about, I've been sort of climbing up to this, up this ladder of the things that are actually true.
• 28:05
  There's only really four things.
• 28:06
  The fourth one is, is that whatever you put out is what you get back.
• 28:08
  Again, this idea, what you focus on actually becomes the truth.
• 28:11
  So again, if you go back to a certain time period, everybody thought the earth was flat.
• 28:17
  That's what was being said.
• 28:18
  That was was allowed to be said.
• 28:20
  That's the they had science to prove it.
• 28:22
  All the smartest people were saying that.
• 28:24
  And then somebody else came along and said, hey, you know what?
• 28:27
  I'm getting some different measurements here.
• 28:29
  I'm getting a little different pick up.
• 28:30
  I'm starting to think a little differently.
• 28:32
  I think the the whole thing is actually not the way we thought it was.
• 28:36
  And then you people either go, yeah, that's great, or let's kill him, I think, right.
• 28:40
  This is the story of Jesus.
• 28:42
  This is a story of every religion.
• 28:42
  Yeah, right.
• 28:44
  Every religion is there's an established way.
• 28:47
  And then somebody comes along who says, no, I don't think so.
• 28:51
  I think it's like this.
• 28:52
  And the every religion, I don't care which religion it is or what you think it's good or bad.
• 28:58
  They're all saying, buck, the trend of the establishment and get into your own power, get into your own sovereignty, get into your own frequency.
• 29:08
  Get into your own alignment, because that's all that truly matters.
• 29:12
  Otherwise you're under the hypnosis or the illusion of someone else.
• 29:17
  And so if you know this is illusion, the Hindu tradition calls it Maya, which translates to illusion.
• 29:23
  If you know you're in the illusion, why would I sign up for your illusion?
• 29:29
  And I may want you to get a certain experience.
• 29:31
  You know what?
• 29:31
  I really like your illusion.
• 29:33
  I think you have some great ideas, blah blah blah.
• 29:35
  you know, you have.
• 29:36
  You talk really well.
• 29:37
  You know, you seem confident. Whatever.
• 29:39
  But eventually you're going to have a different idea.
• 29:42
  And this is what we call being a teenager.
• 29:44
  This is why this is why teenagers rebel.
• 29:46
  Yeah. Because they're like, even in the Amish tradition. Right?
• 29:49
  They have this idea called Rumspringa, where they they they understand you need to go out and have your own unique experience of the world so that you can choose the religion.
• 29:59
  And that's totally different than being indoctrinated or pressured or coerced or forest or feared into something.
• 30:07
  So whatever you put out is what you get back.
• 30:09
  It's exactly always that the universe is perfect.
• 30:13
  The universe doesn't judge.
• 30:14
  It's unconditional, unconditional love.
• 30:17
  It just says yes, you think you're fat.
• 30:19
  Sure, you think you're a shade?
• 30:21
  Sure you think you're wealthy?
• 30:23
  Sure you think you're poor.
• 30:24
  Sure you think you're this great?
• 30:27
  The universe doesn't care. It's here for you. It's.
• 30:29
  It's giving you full control, full authority.
• 30:34
  Not through your mental 3D brain like you were taught to do.
• 30:37
  Work really hard, go to school, get degrees, do all this stuff.
• 30:39
  If that likes you up, go for it.
• 30:41
  But that's just one part and there's infinite.
• 30:45
  So there's 8 billion whatever people on the planet.
• 30:48
  But there's even more ways than there are people.
• 30:51
  There's infinite ways.
• 30:52
  So any one person can do 20 different things in a lifetime.
• 30:56
  You might become an astronaut, a doctor, a standup comedian, a podcaster, or whatever.
• 31:00
  Like there's really no limit other than the ones that you put on yourself and treat.
• 31:06
  And so the fifth thing is, everything else changes.
• 31:09
  So besides the fact that you exist, you know, the always in the one in the one is in the wall, in the all, everything is here and now.
• 31:14
  What you put out is what you get back. Other than that, everything else changes.
• 31:20
  Everything evolves, you know, everything twists and turns and money comes and money goes and the weather is like this and the weather is like everything's moving, everything's giving you.
• 31:29
  Otherwise you couldn't have experience, right?
• 31:32
  Experience, by definition, is I saw it this way.
• 31:35
  And now, in a moment's notice, I see it this way.
• 31:38
  That's the illusion of time.
• 31:40
  It's our perception.
• 31:41
  We're perceiving like a movie here.
• 31:44
  You're a filmmaker.
• 31:45
  If back in the day they have film strips which were actual pictures that move really fast to give you the illusion of movement, this is how reality works.
• 31:54
  Everything's already here or now.
• 31:55
  And as we move through our perspectives, it's like picture frames moving and the frame rate is what we call reality.
• 32:04
  And that's why I can seem like man to really slow.
• 32:08
  It was just such a slow day.
• 32:09
  It felt like it lasted forever.
• 32:10
  Well, for you it did right.
• 32:12
  And then and then you start doing something you really love, like having a great conversation you like.
• 32:16
  Well, three hours. Just oh my gosh. It was five.
• 32:18
  I know.
• 32:19
  And you're changing your frame rate. Yes.
• 32:22
  And what's even cooler about that is because everything's a paradox or an infinity loop or a yin yang.
• 32:27
  Everything is the also the other thing intertwined.
• 32:32
  As you slow down, we would describe that as getting present, which is what you do in a really good conversation.
• 32:37
  We're fully present right now.
• 32:39
  We're not thinking about what's for lunch or whatever.
• 32:41
  Yeah, we're here, we're now we're being.
• 32:42
  As you slow down, everything speeds up as you slow down.
• 32:47
  So you might let's say we talk for three hours.
• 32:49
  That all we feel like ten minutes because we're really into it.
• 32:52
  And you've only actually experienced ten minutes in your biology, so you've only aged ten minutes, whereas everybody else has aged three hours if they are on that frequency.
• 33:04
  So this is how you can literally age in reverse.
• 33:06
  And my wife and I actually went viral in 2018 because the Daily Mail got one of our pictures.
• 33:12
  We did like a ten years because we were together for ten years, like before and after.
• 33:15
  That's how we started.
• 33:17
  This is how we are now kind of thing.
• 33:19
  And it went viral and we had no idea.
• 33:21
  Like we woke up in the Daily Mail, had post-its, we had no idea.
• 33:24
  And then all of a sudden we're on front page in like Russia and Chile and all over the world, and people are like this couple's aging in reverse.
• 33:30
  When you're having fun, when you're in alignment, you age differently.
• 33:35
  And if you said you have a chronological age and you have a biological age, your chronological ages, age is how much time you've spent, you know, 38 years or whatever.
• 33:44
  But your biological age can be 20 or 15 or 25 or 30, depending on where you're personally vibrating.
• 33:51
  and so again, this just ties back into the what you're putting out is what you're getting back.
• 33:56
  And once people understand some of these things, first of all, it's really exciting.
• 34:00
  It's really exciting because now all of a sudden, maybe you have heard this, maybe you haven't heard this, but at least you feel a little bit more empowered.
• 34:06
  You feel a little bit less like things are happening to you.
• 34:10
  And it's it's this journey that we go through from being a victim that we all feel in some kind of a way to realizing I was doing it right.
• 34:20
  And people all often, though, don't want to be like, oh, all of these things that happen, like me getting run over by a car, for example, is like my fault.
• 34:26
  What do you say to people that are like, well, what do you mean?
• 34:29
  Like all these shitty things that are happening? Like, how can they be my fault?
• 34:32
  Let's, let's say everything I've said up to this point is complete B.S.
• 34:35
  and not true.
• 34:36
  What do you what would you prefer?
• 34:38
  Right?
• 34:40
  Do you want to be a victim?
• 34:41
  Go do it.
• 34:42
  I tell people all the time, I'm not here to change your beliefs.
• 34:44
  Yeah, people are in my comment section all the time.
• 34:46
  Well, this is completely bogus. Or, you know, I don't believe you.
• 34:49
  Or what about this going on? Yeah.
• 34:51
  I say, well, if once you understand that you're creating a reality, you will start to see yourself choosing different things.
• 34:58
  Another way you can say that is if you can truly tap into the frequency of unconditional love for yourself and what do you really need at that point?
• 35:07
  Or how would you see yourself acting?
• 35:10
  And you know, you've really and to even zoom out from that, allow people to go through their process again.
• 35:19
  If you think that things are a certain way, okay, go into that, but do it with your whole self.
• 35:25
  Most people are dabblers.
• 35:27
  They're staying on the surface of life.
• 35:30
  If you're at a job that you're sort of wishy washy about, I always tell people and they're wanting to get out of it before you quit your job or whatever, put 100% of your what likes you up into the job first.
• 35:42
  Try that for a week and see if anything changes.
• 35:45
  You might have just not really been present.
• 35:48
  There, and you forgot that you actually liked certain aspects of it.
• 35:52
  And then I say, just turn the volume on up on those things.
• 35:55
  And then if that job is truly meant for you, it'll it'll grow with you and it'll feel awesome or something else along will come better, something better will come along, right?
• 36:04
  I see this happen every single time.
• 36:06
  When I work with somebody, they're like, yeah, I just got a raise out of nowhere.
• 36:09
  Or, you know, I just got this incredible job offer when we're talking about finances and things like that.
• 36:13
  I've seen literal transformations in one phone call.
• 36:17
  Like, literally, I get off the phone with somebody and they're like, hey, you know what?
• 36:18
  You won't believe what just happened.
• 36:21
  I go, yeah, I do actually, because nothing's actually fixed.
• 36:24
  And the amount of time something takes is only your belief system right now, today, you can have a totally different experience of life.
• 36:31
  Most people wake up and do the same thing they've been doing for however many years. Why?
• 36:36
  You don't have to do that.
• 36:37
  If you wake up and the first thing you do is a lot.
• 36:40
  What a lot of people do is they check their emails or something or check their if.
• 36:44
  Does that let you up on a scale of 1 to 10, does that light you up?
• 36:47
  Most people will probably say no.
• 36:48
  It's probably like a 2 or 3 whatever.
• 36:51
  Okay, well what's a five, six, 7 or 8?
• 36:54
  Do that for five minutes.
• 36:55
  Go dance in your living room.
• 36:55
  Go for a jog.
• 36:58
  You know, whatever you want to do, make it at five, six, seven, eight, nine or why not at ten?
• 37:04
  And do that to start your day.
• 37:06
  Even if it's just sitting there and just looking at something nice, or drinking your coffee in a slow fashion, you know. Like, damn, this is so good.
• 37:14
  This is so good.
• 37:15
  Like, I can not rip the smile off my face because this is I feel like what everyone needs to hear.
• 37:22
  Yeah.
• 37:23
  And if anybody that's watching this, you've manifested this.
• 37:26
  Yeah. You're you're calling this into your experience.
• 37:28
  You right now.
• 37:30
  Oh, I'm so glad you said yes to that's I was like, I need to like, talk to you right now.
• 37:34
  So and the truth is, the truth is I say no to a lot of people because you can just it just doesn't feel right.
• 37:39
  It's like, yeah, you know, people go on dates, you know, if you're on like a dating app, you can just feel him.
• 37:44
  It's not there. But sometimes.
• 37:45
  And so what I tell people is if it's not falling in your lap, it's not for you.
• 37:51
  If it doesn't feel calm, fun, easy falling in your lap, you don't need it.
• 37:57
  And this breaks you out of that scarcity mindset.
• 38:00
  You don't need to stay in places you don't like.
• 38:03
  You don't need to do things in a way you don't like.
• 38:05
  That's that's just one way.
• 38:07
  And you've explored it already.
• 38:09
  Congratulations. You did it. Yeah.
• 38:11
  Now allow yourself to explore something different.
• 38:13
  Even if it looks like the exact same thing.
• 38:16
  Bring a different quality.
• 38:18
  Bring a five year old quality to it.
• 38:20
  Bring a playful quality to it.
• 38:22
  Bring a joking lighten up.
• 38:25
  Yes, it's not that serious.
• 38:28
  And when you die, you're going to feel you're going to laugh at all of this and laugh at all of this.
• 38:33
  You're going to be like, man, look how split up, because you're going to have a life review.
• 38:36
  You're going to see a lot of the things you do.
• 38:38
  It's not going to be painful to you.
• 38:39
  It's going to be like watching your favorite Netflix show, where they're highlighting all the recapping so that you understand what happened there so that you get more perspective.
• 38:47
  But you can be like, man, that was that guy was really serious.
• 38:51
  I can't believe I was so was I was doing it.
• 38:53
  So that's also when we die to get like into the details.
• 38:58
  So our body is left here and then and then where do we go.
• 39:01
  Like you said life for you.
• 39:03
  Tell us more. Yeah.
• 39:03
  So again it depends on what you think.
• 39:06
  So everybody's going to get their own unique version of it.
• 39:08
  But you're going to get some form of reflection a life review.
• 39:12
  You're going to see how you did.
• 39:14
  You're going to get some sort of recap on the game you just played.
• 39:19
  And because you came here to like, experience and explore.
• 39:24
  Here's another thing I was showing people this is a once in an experiential, universal lifetime, once in existence.
• 39:32
  This is once in existence.
• 39:33
  This moment right now will never happen exactly again, like it is happening now, if it's the most miraculous way to live your life.
• 39:42
  So like, you know, you once people get even just 1% of that, it's like, now whatever you're going to do, make it the best possible thing.
• 39:52
  If you only have access to a really cheap sandwich for lunch, make that the most magical sandwich of the day.
• 40:00
  Not because you're pretending that it's some fancy version of the sandwich, but because you're never going to get this again.
• 40:06
  Exactly like this again.
• 40:09
  You right now, right now is a miracle in every sense of that word.
• 40:15
  And if you choose to focus on something going wrong, what you're saying is I want to sign up for more going on, more going wrong.
• 40:23
  Please can I have more going wrong, please?
• 40:26
  And the reason why we do this is to essentially crush us and breakfast down.
• 40:31
  We actually sign ourselves up to be broken down so that we can break through.
• 40:36
  Finally, because the greatest feeling in the universe is going from one thing to another, we call that transformation.
• 40:45
  So that's what happens when you die.
• 40:46
  Your body doesn't leave or disappear. It transforms.
• 40:49
  It transforms into different kinds of energy depending on how you die and what you want to do with your body afterwards and all this kind of stuff.
• 40:57
  But you're transforming the energy that is you is transforming from one state to another.
• 41:01
  Just in the same way, if I put a pot of water on the stove, it's water, and then it evaporates into something else.
• 41:08
  It didn't disappear. It transform.
• 41:11
  And the same thing is happening to your body is mostly water, right?
• 41:13
  So you transform and you are constantly expanding to the question is, in which way do you prefer to expand?
• 41:22
  Do you want to be the person running around calling out all the things that are going wrong, which is what you've been taught?
• 41:27
  Because we come from a 3D mindset, scarcity and survival.
• 41:31
  So our brain is literally wired for problems.
• 41:33
  So that's one level to operate from.
• 41:35
  Or you can go, oh yeah, I have this thing called a heart, which allows me to see beyond the so-called problem and gets into the soul or loosen the solution.
• 41:46
  Otherwise nobody would ever fall in love with anybody.
• 41:49
  You know, nobody would get together in any kind of way because it's so easy to just pick people apart or pick things apart and break them down.
• 41:56
  But you're looking at a very small percentage of that.
• 41:58
  And when you zoom out, you see, oh, actually those things that I thought were imperfect or wrong or bad actually make that dish so delicious.
• 42:07
  It's the imperfections that actually make that thing.
• 42:10
  It's like listening to an old vinyl record that has some impurities in it versus something really polished.
• 42:16
  Both are great, but there's something about that.
• 42:19
  There's some sort of humanistic soul, you know, that you just can't reproduce with a computer.
• 42:26
  You know, you can mimic it, but you can't really get that thing.
• 42:28
  So what does this all mean, and what's the purpose of it?
• 42:32
  It's about what's that thing that lights you up?
• 42:34
  Not because you have to get somewhere or figure out quantum mechanics, or figure out how the universe works, or figure out how to manifest $1 million.
• 42:42
  It's the journey or the process of that.
• 42:44
  Because guess what? Here's what happens.
• 42:46
  I work with so many different kinds of people.
• 42:48
  NFL Super Bowl champions, CEO millionaires, high level performers, as well as everyday people and athletes that want to just do something, or people that just want to lose weight, whatever, whatever.
• 42:58
  When you get to the thing, even if it's the million dollar lottery ticket, whatever you think is the top of the mountain, then that moment passes.
• 43:06
  And then it's Monday again, right?
• 43:08
  And then you have to pay your phone bill, and then you're.
• 43:12
  And then your mom still annoys.
• 43:12
  You, right?
• 43:14
  And then you're still not happy with your hair today.
• 43:17
  Yeah. And etc. etc., etc..
• 43:19
  So you can travel to Italy but you're just going to be you in Italy now, right?
• 43:28
  So there's an old there's an old SNL sketch, sketch, I think with Adam Sandler, where he's a guy from new Jersey selling tourism to Italy, and he's like, basically making that joke.
• 43:39
  He's like, yeah, he can go to Italy, but you're still going to be an asshole, you know, like, like and it's just, it's it goes to show that, first of all, the universe has a huge sense of humor. Yes.
• 43:49
  And and second of all, whatever you're being is what you're going to get.
• 43:53
  It doesn't matter if you go to a fancy restaurant or a fancy hotel or if you're living on the street.
• 43:58
  I've met so many wise, incredible people on the street.
• 44:01
  One of my favorite things to do that my wife isn't necessarily crazy about is I love talking to all different kinds of people, especially people that are what most people would cast away.
• 44:10
  They are some of the most brilliant, talented, creative, insightful.
• 44:15
  Yeah. heartfelt, abundant.
• 44:18
  You would you wouldn't think if you go to a third world country, which is a ridiculous term, and talk to somebody who was living in a hut, which I've done, and think most people think that that's a bad idea.
• 44:28
  It's dangerous or it's crazy and I've met some of the most incredible people doing that that seemingly had nothing, and then all of a sudden prepared me a feast, or inviting me over, or giving me something or trying to help me in some kind of way.
• 44:42
  And I'm going, no, I it would be the other way around, right?
• 44:44
  Because I'm supposedly have everything, you know, I'm a white guy from the United States.
• 44:48
  You know, I'm on top of the food chain.
• 44:50
  Yeah.
• 44:52
  but no, there's no such thing as hierarchy.
• 44:55
  And so again, this, this, this all goes to show that there is no such thing as a president of your life.
• 45:01
  Really? There's no such thing as a boss of your life. Really.
• 45:03
  There's no such thing as a God of your life, really, that you should be giving your power away to, again, all of these different religions and philosophies and things are saying, no, it's you. Yes.
• 45:15
  I love that. This is. The gift.
• 45:17
  This is the gift because I feel like also, you know, from the ages of like five and 25, we're like, we end up being susceptible to all the conditioning and all of the beliefs that we're we're learning, we're figuring out.
• 45:29
  And then and then I think what happened to some of us some days, like it's like we were like, wake up, yes, we wake up.
• 45:36
  But for me, it really took being run over by a car and like my consciousness flew out of my body.
• 45:40
  And so for me that like for me, that experience, like is literally really expanding outside of my body.
• 45:48
  So when you said that word, I was like, that's it.
• 45:51
  And then going back in, that doesn't happen to everybody, obviously.
• 45:54
  But I do think people like wake up and are like, I really have been complaining about my job for the last year.
• 46:00
  What am I still doing here and how do I change it?
• 46:02
  What's the first thing you do to change it?
• 46:03
  So I love like that practical advice that you gave of, like putting everything into your job and seeing like, like what about like what would you say about like a relationship if there's like a relationship like that?
• 46:17
  Well, first of all, realize that you're setting all this up.
• 46:21
  So what you're what you do for a living as a filmmaker, right? Yes.
• 46:25
  That's part of what you do. Yeah.
• 46:27
  So you have an eye for story line.
• 46:29
  You have an eye for plot. Yeah.
• 46:31
  Rising and falling action, dramatic experiences, shifting, and, you know, all these different things that come with storytelling.
• 46:39
  So for someone like you, your personality, you need a movie like experience.
• 46:46
  What's more a movie like than getting hit by a car and dying?
• 46:50
  Right. Yeah.
• 46:51
  So that's the thing that was going to be your ticket to unlock that awakening. Wow.
• 46:58
  For somebody else, it might be cancer.
• 47:00
  For somebody else, it might be for me.
• 47:02
  It was when my wife we weren't date.
• 47:02
  We weren't. We were dating at the time.
• 47:05
  She broke up with me and I.
• 47:06
  I had never been as connected to someone up until that point, and that shattered me.
• 47:13
  It broke my heart in a way I didn't even know it was possible.
• 47:16
  That was like my first real, like awakening.
• 47:19
  Awakening.
• 47:20
  And that led to so many things, so many domino effects.
• 47:23
  And it it just tore me apart. And I had to.
• 47:26
  And at the job, I was stressed out.
• 47:28
  I was working 90 hours a week trying to get my business up and running and making sure all that was going on.
• 47:33
  So I was I was stressed out as the classic stressed out American kind of person, but I was trying to figure it out right?
• 47:41
  And everything just fell apart.
• 47:42
  Everything just fell apart in all possible ways.
• 47:46
  And it was the greatest gift because then I got to wipe the slate clean.
• 47:50
  Truly, only to realize I never had to do all of that.
• 47:55
  But with my way of seeing am my certain kind of personality.
• 47:58
  And, you know, the way I was raised and all this kind of stuff, I created the best possible scenario for me to knock the walls down and realize it's all just a phony set that I get to.
• 48:12
  I get to do whatever I want, so everybody's getting their own version of that, if that's what they came here to do.
• 48:20
  Some people just came here to kind of go through the motions and, and just not really pay attention too much stuff and just kind of go to work and just kind of, you know, disconnect.
• 48:28
  And there's nothing wrong with that.
• 48:30
  But other people, more and more people are here to go.
• 48:33
  Wait a minute.
• 48:34
  I think this is we've got this all backwards.
• 48:37
  I think it was, you know, there's much more to the story.
• 48:39
  What's going on over here? What's going.
• 48:40
  And it's a time of awakening.
• 48:42
  And you can see that since I was a kid, especially, a lot less people are going along with the program and it manifests in very unique ways.
• 48:50
  Not everybody's going to do the exact same thing.
• 48:52
  but undoubtedly and this is what prophecies have told for thousands of years.
• 48:56
  This is the time of that transition, just in the same way, you know, around 730 ish tonight, the sun's going to set, right.
• 49:05
  We start to see a pattern emerge.
• 49:07
  So ancient cultures were able to see these patterns, and they were connected in a different way than we were because they weren't.
• 49:14
  They just had a different mindset.
• 49:15
  They had a different perspective.
• 49:15
  They were in a different frequency.
• 49:17
  And so they realized that there's these cycles.
• 49:20
  So we're coming out of this darkness.
• 49:22
  You can say a sleep cycle just in the same way when dawn breaks, it's like, oh, yeah, you know, I think it's going to get sunny today because the sun's coming up.
• 49:30
  That's what we're in.
• 49:31
  We're in this golden age, but we're we're transitioning from sleep to awake.
• 49:36
  And you know, sometimes it's hard to wake up in the morning and you don't really want to go, like, I've got a couple more minutes, I just want to sleep a little bit more.
• 49:45
  So and so that's what we're doing.
• 49:47
  And people, you know, it's like the sun's coming through the window and you're like, oh man, it's time to wake up.
• 49:51
  I'm already like, I don't know if I'm ready.
• 49:53
  It seems kind of hearts.
• 49:55
  But then once you get out in the sun, you're like, oh man, it's beautiful.
• 49:57
  I love this, I do energized, I want to do this. I want to do that.
• 49:59
  I want to go, I want to go see my friend, you and all this other stuff.
• 50:02
  Oh my gosh.
• 50:03
  this is also good.
• 50:05
  I'm curious because we, like we've touched on, you know, that we're transitioning after we die.
• 50:11
  And then do you believe we'll come back and do it again?
• 50:14
  We come back to the simulation.
• 50:16
  It's all choice.
• 50:17
  That's all I know. Okay, so.
• 50:19
  So what you want, what do you choose to believe or what do you.
• 50:22
  Well, when I, when I, when I had my death experience, I.
• 50:26
  So you take DMT, you smoke it like you would smoke marijuana.
• 50:29
  Yeah.
• 50:30
  And if you can get to three poles because it happens so fast, so early on the first pool, you feel it like instantaneously.
• 50:36
  If you can get to three pools, that's considered the out of reality experience.
• 50:43
  I was able to do that real quick.
• 50:45
  I was shot out of reality.
• 50:47
  I had a conversation with God, the universe.
• 50:49
  It was like the most ecstatic, euphoric experience of all time.
• 50:54
  And at the end of this experience was so many things happen.
• 50:58
  I was given a choice.
• 50:59
  Do you want to go back into this physical body as Dan, or do you want to continue into nonphysical and into all the other things that you could possibly do?
• 51:06
  It was very matter of fact.
• 51:07
  You said you want to go left or right.
• 51:09
  And I was like, well, I'm in Costa Rica right now, which is like my favorite place on the planet is a gorgeous place.
• 51:14
  I'm with my soon to be wife at the time.
• 51:17
  I'm having so much fun.
• 51:17
  I was like, I'm having a lot of fun.
• 51:19
  I kind of love you here. Like, this is so much fun.
• 51:21
  Like, I'm living my life to the fullest right now.
• 51:24
  So I chose to go back and what I was later told in like, meditations because this continues to unfold.
• 51:30
  It's not like a one and done right.
• 51:31
  This is, a seed that grows into much, much more stuff.
• 51:35
  as is life.
• 51:38
  I was told that we've all been given these, these choices so many times to come back.
• 51:43
  And if you were here, you've chosen it.
• 51:45
  So that's the other thing I always try to communicate to people when they're telling me their life is so bad, I get it, I get there's so-called struggles and challenges, but you chose this.
• 51:54
  You actually did.
• 51:55
  You actually wanted this experience because, again, the most in the most uplifting and positive experience that you could imagine is going from thinking you can't do something to then doing that thing.
• 52:07
  And so you're choosing it, you're choosing it, you're choosing it.
• 52:09
  And people can imagine that.
• 52:09
  Why would I want to choose trauma?
• 52:12
  Why would I try to choose this?
• 52:13
  Because it's not actually real in the sense of you can be damaged, it's just an experience.
• 52:18
  And the same way you cry over the movie character that's having the traumatic experience, but then you realize, oh, this is an actor acting is conveying a really deep emotional thing.
• 52:27
  I guess that's about the same thing that happened.
• 52:29
  This is a movie that you're creating, you're directing, you're writing, you're starring, you're doing all of the things that you could possibly do.
• 52:36
  And once you start to get a little taste of that through simple practices like we discussed earlier, put more of yourself into it.
• 52:43
  Do things that light you up.
• 52:44
  Take five minutes out of your day as early as possible, and just breathe.
• 52:49
  Or do anything that feels good.
• 52:51
  And notice how that sets a different trajectory in your day.
• 52:54
  Do it for seven days.
• 52:54
  Watch your life change.
• 52:56
  Do it for 21 days.
• 52:56
  You're already totally in a reality.
• 52:58
  Do it for 90 days now.
• 53:00
  Nobody will recognize you.
• 53:02
  Oh my gosh, I love it.
• 53:03
  It's like it's it's, what we're seeing now in social media is like main character energy.
• 53:07
  It's like, it's the idea that we're we are supposed to, you know, take care of ourself first.
• 53:12
  So I wrote about that in my book. Yeah.
• 53:14
  There's a graphic main character.
• 53:16
  Main character.
• 53:16
  Yes. It's so good because you also say minding our own business serves us the most.
• 53:21
  But, but but is celebrated in society also is like looking out for someone else.
• 53:27
  Like looking out for, let's just say, immigrants at the border, for example.
• 53:30
  Like people that need safety to come here.
• 53:33
  Like, should we not be helping them or we should be putting ourselves first, or like, what should we be doing?
• 53:39
  The most helpful thing you could ever do for everything in the entire universe, including yourself, is to be in your highest vibration, to be in your alignment.
• 53:50
  That's the only time you have any power anyway.
• 53:54
  When you're fighting against something, you give all of your power away and you essentially become useless.
• 54:02
  So if you really want to help anybody, which actually isn't true, it's impossible to do.
• 54:07
  And after 19 years of coaching people, this is what I've realized.
• 54:10
  I you're helping people.
• 54:11
  I know you're saying, no, you didn't do it.
• 54:13
  Tell me, tell tell them.
• 54:15
  What I'm doing is reminding people that they do it themselves.
• 54:19
  Right?
• 54:20
  I don't put the food in your mouth.
• 54:23
  I don't get you on the computer to type up your book.
• 54:26
  I don't get you to do anything.
• 54:28
  You decide you want to do these things in a joyful kind of a way.
• 54:32
  And once you get into that framework, then you can literally change reality, including other people, if they want to come on board with it.
• 54:41
  Because if you don't do this, then what you're saying is those people that are powerless, I have I have God within me, but they don't, I'm powerful, but they're not.
• 54:54
  Which is a fundamental lie.
• 54:57
  People are just it's just like I was explaining the the so-called poor person.
• 55:02
  We look down on people unknowingly and we look up to people and like, oh no, these are both lives and they're both the same.
• 55:10
  There are two sides of the same coin.
• 55:13
  They're incorrect perspectives that you've been taught that place you at a lower level of self-worth within yourself.
• 55:20
  So if you truly want to help people see yourself as God and everyone else, because that's true.
• 55:29
  That's the highest truth.
• 55:31
  you are already the divine, so you don't need to fight against anything.
• 55:37
  I put it I posted a video yesterday.
• 55:39
  You can either be a guest chef or you can be with stuff.
• 55:41
  If you want to be the most helpful person you can be, focus on the things you're with.
• 55:48
  And you'll see not only will your life dramatically improve for the better anybody that comes in contact with you, their life will improve too, for the better.
• 55:56
  And it never fails.
• 55:57
  Anybody I've ever worked with over my 19 year career, I've had a 100% success rate.
• 56:02
  Not because I'm special or because I know something that nobody else knows.
• 56:07
  I simply remind people of who they really are, which is not a human being, but a soul having a human experience.
• 56:15
  God having a human experience.
• 56:17
  And once you just get a whiff of that and practice that a little bit in your life, just play with it in your head.
• 56:23
  Don't even tell anybody.
• 56:23
  Just play with that idea in your head.
• 56:25
  See yourself as God and everybody else too, whatever that means to you, and see how your day goes.
• 56:31
  See how your so-called challenges go.
• 56:35
  See how your next meal goes and keep reminding yourself, because you're you're you're you're going to forget.
• 56:41
  Especially if this is a new concept and see how your body reacts.
• 56:46
  Notice how your breathing changes.
• 56:48
  Measure your heart rate throughout the day.
• 56:50
  Notice how you feel when you're not feeling like that.
• 56:52
  And then when you do feel like that, everything in your body aligns with perfect health.
• 56:57
  Everything in your body aligns with abundance.
• 57:00
  Everything in your body aligns with your highest path.
• 57:03
  You become more creative.
• 57:04
  Your IQ literally improves.
• 57:09
  It's not.
• 57:09
  It is magic because we live in magic, but it's not something that's outside of you.
• 57:15
  It's an inside job.
• 57:17
  Yeah, there's nothing out there, actually.
• 57:19
  And this is also what quantum physics and, is showing us.
• 57:22
  The non-local, reality isn't real.
• 57:26
  It's not really out there.
• 57:28
  It's why I like the so the quantum physics stuff, I'm like, it makes my brain explode.
• 57:31
  I don't get it, but I believe you.
• 57:34
  Well, yes, but. Well, you don't have to believe me.
• 57:37
  And I tell I myself people don't believe me.
• 57:38
  Yeah, because I don't.
• 57:39
  Belief is belief is not great currency.
• 57:42
  Right?
• 57:43
  Knowingness, great currency, life experience, great currency.
• 57:46
  So go off your life experience and this is why I have a 100% success rate.
• 57:50
  Because if somebody's dealing on a certain level, like, look, you don't get certain things and unless you want to come on board with your experience, I can only work with you from your experience.
• 57:59
  So if you're not willing to, like, really be open about that, then there's nowhere to go because you're playing in a lie.
• 58:06
  I can't help you if you want to lie.
• 58:07
  Right.
• 58:08
  You have to come to the table honestly.
• 58:10
  And that's how relationships work.
• 58:12
  That's why me and my wife have such a great relationship and why we were able to reconnect after she broke up with me.
• 58:17
  It randomly happened a year and a half later.
• 58:19
  We were trying to do this.
• 58:20
  We just happened to transform.
• 58:20
  I had an awakening.
• 58:22
  She had her own awakening in a totally different way.
• 58:24
  And then we came back together.
• 58:25
  We're like, well, we're we're two totally different people and we somehow love each other way more than ever before, and it just naturally grew into what it is now.
• 58:34
  So stop trying, stop efforting, stop manipulating, stop trying to turn all the knobs out there you're doing.
• 58:42
  You're playing with a lie, and you're manipulating the lie to try to get a certain result.
• 58:47
  And it never works out.
• 58:48
  And you've been doing this your whole life.
• 58:50
  That's why you're frustrated.
• 58:50
  That's why you're unhappy.
• 58:52
  That's why your health is suffering, that's why your finances are suffering, etc., etc.
• 58:57
  change the story.
• 58:59
  Just start changing the story just in your own head.
• 59:01
  Don't tell anybody. Don't tell your wife or your husband.
• 59:04
  Just start being happy essentially for no reason because and people go, well, I have I need a reason to be happy.
• 59:11
  And then I'll take them through a little exercise.
• 59:12
  If you want to do it, you could do it right. That's it.
• 59:15
  Imagine your.
• 59:16
  Have you ever been on vacation, or have you ever visited a place that you really enjoyed?
• 59:20
  Can you imagine it in your mind? I can.
• 59:23
  Now. Did you just notice you got a little happier?
• 59:26
  you just did it.
• 59:28
  Just change your reality.
• 59:30
  It's that simple.
• 59:31
  And you're doing it all the time.
• 59:33
  But we get taught that imagining and daydreaming is wrong or it's not useful.
• 59:38
  But here's my offering to you doing 5 to 15 minutes of positive daydreaming or just anything that makes you feel better is more valuable than 16 hours of labor.
• 59:48
  That's wild. Yeah.
• 59:50
  And don't take my word for it.
• 59:51
  Go practice it. Go see for yourself.
• 59:54
  Go try it out.
• 59:55
  I and this is this is my coaching process.
• 59:57
  We talk about stuff, I get to the root of people's beliefs, and then we go, okay, well, let's let's play with that a little bit.
• 1:00:03
  Let's go practice this little, this little five minute thing.
• 1:00:06
  Go do it out in the real world.
• 1:00:06
  Go do it with your mom.
• 1:00:08
  Go do it with the people that are, you know, against you or whatever, whatever, whatever we decide is appropriate.
• 1:00:14
  And then come back and tell me how it went and then we build on that, build on that.
• 1:00:17
  And people are like, I don't know what's going on here, but, everything in my life is changing.
• 1:00:22
  And then it freaks them out because everything's changing so positively and they're not used to that.
• 1:00:27
  So you literally have to get used to thriving, which is a wild thing to say.
• 1:00:33
  But when you when you look at some of those statistics, you know, people that win the lottery, roughly like 40 to 50% of them wind up in worse financial condition afterwards.
• 1:00:44
  So you may think so.
• 1:00:45
  You may think you want the big win, but it could ruin your life.
• 1:00:50
  Right? Right, right.
• 1:00:51
  Oh my God.
• 1:00:52
  So the best practice is always just to be here now and realize that you have everything already.
• 1:00:58
  And get out of this desperation for wanting all of these things and then just let everything come to you.
• 1:01:03
  The best things will come to you when you relax, when you're happy, when you're going for a walk, when you're not trying to do anything.
• 1:01:10
  That's how nature operates.
• 1:01:11
  That's how the universe operates.
• 1:01:13
  It already is everything. And so are you.
• 1:01:16
  So what do you really need?
• 1:01:17
  Nothing. So just go have fun.
• 1:01:19
  Dan. And this is so fun.
• 1:01:22
  Like, I could literally talk to you all day, every day, but are tools that you use, like, what are you doing in the morning?
• 1:01:28
  Are you meditating every day?
• 1:01:30
  Are you taking walks?
• 1:01:32
  Are you breathing?
• 1:01:32
  What are you doing?
• 1:01:33
  I yeah, so I wrote a book all about this.
• 1:01:36
  It's called the Seven Laws of Wellness.
• 1:01:38
  The really simple things.
• 1:01:39
  Breathing, drinking water, moving your body for at least 20 minutes a day, eating foods that you consider to be good for you because everybody has their own version of that.
• 1:01:47
  And whatever you believe is true, it's true.
• 1:01:50
  You need some sort of silence or meditation.
• 1:01:54
  You need some sort of rest as well as sleep.
• 1:01:56
  Not just sleep, but also rest breaks, non-thinking activities basically, and joy.
• 1:02:03
  But it really all funnels into one thing which is happiness or joy.
• 1:02:08
  That's really the only tool.
• 1:02:11
  As soon as you get into alignment, you don't need anything.
• 1:02:14
  So everything is just a tool to get you to alignment.
• 1:02:18
  and so if you just understand that simple thing, well, then you just simply go in any moment, in any day, no matter what's going on, positive or negative.
• 1:02:26
  Do I want to feel good or do I not, do I want to think positively or negatively?
• 1:02:32
  Do I want to do the thing that would make me feel even just 1% better?
• 1:02:35
  Or do I want to continue beating my head up against the wall?
• 1:02:39
  and even if you win $1 billion right now, you're still gonna have to do that.
• 1:02:44
  Even if World War three breaks out right now, you're still going to have to do that.
• 1:02:48
  That's the game.
• 1:02:49
  The game is what do I choose?
• 1:02:51
  That's really the only thing going on here.
• 1:02:54
  And you know, by your internal guidance system, your internal guidance system is this doesn't feel good or this feels good, but you have to get to know yourself through life experience, because a lot of people think, oh, when I do this, it feels really good.
• 1:03:10
  And then I talk to them about it a little bit more and then go actually, you know what?
• 1:03:13
  It doesn't feel like that, right?
• 1:03:16
  You think the stable job feels good, but you actually have been crushed by it?
• 1:03:21
  Totally.
• 1:03:22
  Oh my God.
• 1:03:23
  And then you're like.
• 1:03:23
  I don't I don't understand why I'm my the doctor says I'm getting at this diagnosis.
• 1:03:29
  Well, it's because you're crushing yourself and you think it's good.
• 1:03:32
  So good standing out and really being honest with yourself.
• 1:03:37
  Oh my gosh Dan, you are amazing.
• 1:03:40
  Thank you. So I'm a. Reflection of you.
