Finding Positivity: Embracing Change and Mindfulness · Eye Opener Society

• 0:00
  Recording in progress. Hello everyone and welcome back again to the Eye Opener
• 0:06
  Society. I am your host Gary Dean and this here episode we are lacking our co-host,
• 0:13
  my stepdaughter Hannah.
• 0:15
  I wanted to jump right into this. This way there's no speculation or anything
• 0:19
  like that. If you follow us on social media you would know that Hannah is out
• 0:23
  indefinitely from the show. She's fine. I.
• 0:30
  Personal reasons keep her away from the podcast right now.
• 0:35
  When she is ready, she will return, okay? I just want to be kind of upfront about that.
• 0:41
  There's a lot of things that are going on behind the scenes, and it's all personal.
• 0:46
  So I just want to make sure everybody knows that from here on out,
• 0:50
  you're going to listen to either just myself, or I will have Brittany sitting
• 0:56
  in for some of the episodes, and I have some other ideas too,
• 1:01
  as far as having people co-host with me.
• 1:03
  If I can't get them due to timing and whatnot, then again, you'll hear just me.
• 1:09
  So I want to get into this podcast with getting that out of the way,
• 1:12
  because I know this is difficult for me as well, because Hannah is in a very
• 1:18
  integral part of the show.
• 1:20
  And it's difficult now for me to go back to hosting
• 1:24
  you know by myself after doing this show for so
• 1:27
  long with her so I want to thank the audience
• 1:30
  again as always if it wasn't for you guys we'd be nothing and we so appreciate
• 1:36
  you tuning in every time you push play every download it's so so appreciative
• 1:42
  from you know us here at eyeopener society both Hannah and myself so.
• 1:49
  I'm going to also let everybody know that I'm going to probably consult with
• 1:52
  Hannah on a few episodes and maybe she can lend, you know, some ideas behind
• 1:58
  the show and whatnot that I can talk about as well.
• 2:02
  So she's not going to be completely gone.
• 2:05
  She's still going to be here, right? She's here with me right now, just in my mind.
• 2:10
  I'm just manifesting the fact that she's sitting next to me and,
• 2:13
  you know, I'm thinking about her and getting that feel for her being here.
• 2:18
  So forgive me if I seem a little bit out of place.
• 2:21
  Like I said, it's been a long time since I've done a podcast just by myself.
• 2:25
  So I'm going to shoot this episode off and it's going to be short.
• 2:30
  I'd still like to keep things, you know, short just for listening.
• 2:33
  You know, you guys listening, it's easier to listen to, you know,
• 2:37
  episodes that are a little bit shorter and I want to still remain positive because
• 2:41
  really right now, and this has been going on, it.
• 2:44
  I've been talking about it on our social media page, iOpenerSociety on Facebook.
• 2:50
  Everything seems to be so off lately.
• 2:54
  Everyone seems to have some sort of issue, whether it's, you know,
• 2:59
  sadness or, you know, just bad luck, traumas and stuff like that.
• 3:04
  It's been going on a lot and it's been going on with pretty much everyone.
• 3:08
  Anyone I talk to, you know, that I thought was doing really well.
• 3:12
  They're really not. Everybody's falling apart. Everybody's breaking apart.
• 3:15
  So what we need to do collectively as people,
• 3:19
  is start lifting each other up. Enough with the drama, enough with the politics.
• 3:27
  Let's come together again. And I'm not talking about just a nation,
• 3:31
  I'm talking about as the world.
• 3:33
  We need to start coming together, understanding each other, understanding each
• 3:37
  other's limitations, and start helping people, smiling at people.
• 3:43
  Being gentle, kinder, You know, whatever it takes, because we are losing so
• 3:48
  much of our human value that it's creating, you know,
• 3:55
  these here bigger and bigger, like a snowball effect on people's problems.
• 4:00
  Things are very tough in the world right now. I think no matter where you are
• 4:04
  financially, it's a crumbling mess.
• 4:07
  You know, no thanks to politics, but it just is.
• 4:11
  And everybody's trying to struggle. There's so many things that are going on,
• 4:16
  natural disasters that don't appear natural anymore, and we're trying to get
• 4:22
  past this. It's difficult.
• 4:25
  So that's why I'm trying harder with the positivity, the mindfulness, meditation.
• 4:31
  These things are very important in our lives right now, more than medicine is,
• 4:35
  because medicine is just part of the big pharma.
• 4:37
  We must start concentrating on
• 4:40
  ourselves getting ourselves better getting ourselves
• 4:43
  well just so that we can spread that on to other people um i didn't really come
• 4:52
  on here with a topic in mind i really wanted to focus on the positivity i wanted
• 4:57
  to focus on you know looking ahead at the future.
• 5:02
  But the future starts right here, right now. Remember, we must be in the moment.
• 5:08
  And being in this moment right now, the best thing you could do, take a deep breath,
• 5:16
  smile, understand that things can get better if we meditate on them enough,
• 5:22
  if we manifest them enough, things can change that way.
• 5:27
  We as human beings have that ability to do that and i don't think we really
• 5:32
  realize it that much because we never really try we're skeptical of so many
• 5:36
  things and we you know lack the understanding of what we are able to do so if
• 5:44
  we try that just start by meditating.
• 5:47
  And meditation doesn't have to be so deep just take a few moments for yourself
• 5:52
  where you could just sit, breathe, focus on your breathing, get your mind in
• 5:57
  the right place, and then insert better thoughts.
• 6:02
  Remove all of the negative thoughts, remove all of the worries and,
• 6:07
  you know, everything that's making you upset.
• 6:10
  Just let it all out of your mind and bring in all the happiness.
• 6:13
  Bring in all of the good stuff, all the joy, the stuff that makes you happy.
• 6:18
  Start working on yourself.
• 6:20
  Start doing things you like to do. Do not fear the future.
• 6:26
  Just remain in the present moment and keep the present moment as upbeat as you possibly can.
• 6:33
  That is one of the goals for us as people.
• 6:38
  Because once you start feeling good and then you get around other people,
• 6:40
  that starts to move on to that next person and the next person and the next
• 6:44
  person. And Hannon and I said that many times in many of our past episodes. And it's so true.
• 6:50
  Right now is the time to do it. We need to focus on that. But we start focusing
• 6:54
  on ourselves first. Otherwise, we're not going to be able to help anybody else.
• 6:59
  Mindfulness, the moment, right now, it's important.
• 7:03
  We need to gather our thoughts. We need to understand physically what we are
• 7:08
  able to do, the way we need to communicate with others, the way we need to express our feelings.
• 7:16
  We need to condense all of that and do everything in a much more positive note.
• 7:22
  Okay. I wanted to take this moment also, speaking of positivity,
• 7:27
  it's been a while since we mentioned, and I really wish Hannah was here because
• 7:31
  this has been a long time since I mentioned this name, MindsEye Metaphysical.
• 7:36
  Please go to that website mindseyemetaphysical.com my
• 7:41
  dear friend my spiritual guide in life jen she's the shop owner to metaphysical
• 7:46
  shop all things metaphysical search mindseye metaphysical on facebook as well
• 7:52
  she has a facebook group page which i encourage you to join because she does
• 7:56
  contests and giveaways and you know deals bargains and just uh,
• 8:01
  She's a fantastic human being, and I've seen her for the first time because
• 8:04
  she closed the shop down for a year to take care of personal stuff,
• 8:08
  to take care of her spirit, her soul, because she needed to.
• 8:13
  We all need to take that break. She took a year break, and she's back,
• 8:16
  and the shop is still full of all that energy.
• 8:20
  She's getting more stock back in, so please check her out.
• 8:24
  Please support her. She's a small business, and she's just truly amazing.
• 8:28
  And Jen sells not only all the metaphysical products, but she also has an in-house tarot reader.
• 8:35
  She does tarot readings herself. She's a Reiki master.
• 8:40
  She provides all of those services. And she also works with Angelo,
• 8:46
  who is a psychic. And I've had the pleasure of using his services a few times
• 8:51
  and as skeptical as I am, Angelo is the real deal.
• 8:55
  I guarantee you if you just give him a chance he will blow you away as far as
• 9:01
  what he knows and what he can do for you and remember that none of this is entertainment
• 9:05
  purposes she's really you know brings her full spirit into everything she does and so does Angelo
• 9:13
  does this to help people not just to you know hey I'm a psychic and I could
• 9:17
  predict stuff no he's doing it strictly to help people so Minds Eye Metaphysical
• 9:22
  please check out Jen it's been so long and I was so happy to see her.
• 9:26
  That's my happy place. That's where I go. That's where I'm going to be going
• 9:29
  every time she's opening and I have a chance to go there.
• 9:32
  You out there as the audience, you need to find that happy place as well.
• 9:36
  It doesn't have to be a metaphysical shop, although I do suggest Jen's if you
• 9:40
  are in the Lancaster area.
• 9:41
  She's at not, she's on Railroad Avenue and she's on Railroad Avenue.
• 9:48
  Lancaster County, PA. So just go to her website. She's got all the information
• 9:51
  up there. I do apologize. I didn't have it right here in front of me.
• 9:53
  It's been a while since I've done any of her plugs.
• 9:57
  But yeah, you need to find your happy place, that happy moment.
• 10:00
  Sometimes it's just sitting in a room just with your own thoughts.
• 10:05
  And sometimes people don't like that. People do not like to be alone with their own thoughts.
• 10:10
  This is a negative. We need to change that.
• 10:12
  Start saying, I do enjoy being around my own thoughts.
• 10:16
  Change those thoughts do not let
• 10:19
  them overwhelm you let them come out of your mind and
• 10:22
  focus on them in front of you just observe them
• 10:25
  that's all don't interact with them just observe your thoughts
• 10:28
  eventually after they've been observed for a while they go away and you can
• 10:34
  focus in on new things allow your mind to absorb the positive energies that
• 10:40
  are around you you need to seek them out and you need to be understanding that they are there.
• 10:46
  Uh, I am been so full of like at least around me, there's been so much negativity.
• 10:52
  There's been a negative energy inside the studio and I'm working through it.
• 10:57
  That's it. I'm learning how to accept that work is work and that I need to do
• 11:02
  it. And that's been a big step for me.
• 11:05
  Uh, I go into work now with a little bit more of a positive attitude and that's
• 11:09
  been helping a lot lately and everything is going on. here.
• 11:13
  I'm just figuring things out. I'm learning more about myself.
• 11:16
  I'm learning more about how to adapt to all these situations and to keep the
• 11:21
  situations 100% positive.
• 11:25
  We are doing other things. I'm not sure if you heard yet, Anne Lund's Haunted and Waiting podcast.
• 11:34
  Released on Halloween. Anne Lund is just, she's a great storyteller and her
• 11:39
  writing is going to be fantastic too as well.
• 11:42
  I hope you tuned into that. It is so good.
• 11:45
  It's going to be another monthly podcast that we host right here on Eye Opener Society.
• 11:50
  And do not forget the first of every month, we have Elaine who does Arcane Oracle Podcast.
• 11:57
  She does tarot readings and she does the horoscopes for every birth sign.
• 12:01
  And she does it at the first of the month. This way you kind of
• 12:04
  got an idea what you're stepping into and do not
• 12:07
  forget she not only does a podcast but if you
• 12:10
  want a personal reading that's 100 accurate and
• 12:13
  she does to help and she does it you know with true beautiful energy then go
• 12:20
  to our website elaines arcane oracle.com and you can book your own sessions
• 12:26
  and she offers other services too as well so check her out so don't forget the website.
• 12:33
  Elainesarcaneoracle.com. And then there's the other favorite of mine,
• 12:37
  Sunset Child's Out There podcast.
• 12:39
  If you haven't heard that, it is something totally different and it really opens
• 12:43
  up your mind as far as perspectives and the way other people think and the way
• 12:47
  other people receive messages.
• 12:50
  Sunset Child gets that. She gets messages from different sources.
• 12:56
  We all have a source where we, you know, develop ours.
• 12:59
  But from when I spoke to her personally, it was from a near-death experience
• 13:03
  actually. And I don't know all the details.
• 13:05
  Maybe she'll go into that sometime, but Sunset Child's Out There podcast,
• 13:09
  fantastic to listen to. It's really good.
• 13:13
  Now, all three of those wonderful human beings, Anne Lund, Elaine,
• 13:18
  and Sunset Child, they're going to be sitting in on different episodes with me as co-hosts.
• 13:24
  So I should plan out about three episodes at some point they will co-host with me.
• 13:31
  And I'm very excited about that because they are such positive.
• 13:35
  Extremely wonderful people and their energy is wonderful.
• 13:38
  And I can't wait to work with them where I could just sit down and have them as a co-host.
• 13:42
  And don't forget our wonderful Brittany, who also always helps out whenever needed.
• 13:48
  I know I'll be doing a few episodes with her. Hopefully at some point,
• 13:52
  Hannah could rejoin me here on the podcast and remember, she's still here.
• 13:57
  She's just out indefinitely until things are right. And that's what's important. We all remember that.
• 14:04
  If something's not right, if something's off, accept that and don't get too
• 14:09
  involved in the things you do enjoy because you don't want to spread that energy
• 14:13
  out to the things you really do enjoy.
• 14:15
  So keep things positive, my friends. Like I said, keeping this is a very short podcast.
• 14:21
