It's like I was lucky enough to >> Yeah. It's like I was lucky enough to >> Yeah. It's like I was lucky enough to see Gabber uh last year out in Brat Lava see Gabber uh last year out in Brat Lava see Gabber uh last year out in Brat Lava and and and and when he was talking about like ADHD and when he was talking about like ADHD and when he was talking about like ADHD and ADD and ADD and ADD uh anyway it's just so clear that it's
15:00 uh anyway it's just so clear that it's uh anyway it's just so clear that it's when we look at it like ADD is attention when we look at it like ADD is attention when we look at it like ADD is attention deficit disorder. Where's the attention deficit disorder. Where's the attention deficit disorder. Where's the attention missing from? It's the attention missing missing from? It's the attention missing missing from? It's the attention missing from her parents to the child. And this from her parents to the child. And this from her parents to the child. And this is what he talks about. And you're like, is what he talks about. And you're like, is what he talks about. And you're like, "Okay, this ADHD, the kids hyperactive, "Okay, this ADHD, the kids hyperactive, "Okay, this ADHD, the kids hyperactive, screaming out for attention, screaming out for attention, screaming out for attention, causing problems because they're not causing problems because they're not causing problems because they're not getting emotionally regulated by their getting emotionally regulated by their getting emotionally regulated by their parents because the parents one don't parents because the parents one don't parents because the parents one don't know how to emotionally regulate know how to emotionally regulate know how to emotionally regulate themselves. So, how are they going to themselves. So, how are they going to themselves. So, how are they going to teach the kid how to do it?" And the teach the kid how to do it?" And the teach the kid how to do it?" And the kids playing up. Kid doesn't know what kids playing up. Kid doesn't know what kids playing up. Kid doesn't know what it's feeling. It's wanting support and it's feeling. It's wanting support and it's feeling. It's wanting support and nurtured. And this was a an amazing nurtured. And this was a an amazing nurtured. And this was a an amazing light bulb moment for me when I was sat light bulb moment for me when I was sat light bulb moment for me when I was sat there and I think it was for like the there and I think it was for like the there and I think it was for like the 1,200 people that was in the room as 1,200 people that was in the room as 1,200 people that was in the room as well. They all just sat silent and they well. They all just sat silent and they well. They all just sat silent and they were like wow. Well, I was I was like were like wow. Well, I was I was like were like wow. Well, I was I was like right that. So if we can then turn our right that. So if we can then turn our right that. So if we can then turn our attention to supporting the child, attention to supporting the child, attention to supporting the child, helping the child to emotionally
16:00 helping the child to emotionally helping the child to emotionally regulate and understand what it's regulate and understand what it's regulate and understand what it's feeling and and nurture it at the same feeling and and nurture it at the same feeling and and nurture it at the same time. time. time.

That's that's pharmaceutical industry. That's that's pharmaceutical industry. That's that's quite interesting connection. And we had
17:00 quite interesting connection. And we had quite interesting connection. And we had a lady called Satender Car from a lady called Satender Car from a lady called Satender Car from um Australia in episode 37 and she um Australia in episode 37 and she um Australia in episode 37 and she actually talked about she's occupational actually talked about she's occupational actually talked about she's occupational therapist and she talked about kids like therapist and she talked about kids like therapist and she talked about kids like especially for immigrant communities especially for immigrant communities especially for immigrant communities kids' um nervous system is not kids' um nervous system is not kids' um nervous system is not regulated. So she'd have to come in and regulated. So she'd have to come in and regulated. So she'd have to come in and basically help regulate that kid's basically help regulate that kid's basically help regulate that kid's nervous system. And often it's not nervous system. And often it's not nervous system. And often it's not really this um like hyperattention really this um like hyperattention really this um like hyperattention deficit disorder like you were saying. deficit disorder like you were saying. deficit disorder like you were saying. It is just a matter of the parents not It is just a matter of the parents not It is just a matter of the parents not having that knowledge or ancestral having that knowledge or ancestral having that knowledge or ancestral knowledge of how to regulate their own knowledge of how to regulate their own knowledge of how to regulate their own nervous system and then how to how to nervous system and then how to how to nervous system and then how to how to regulate the kids nervous system. Um so regulate the kids nervous system. Um so regulate the kids nervous system. Um so we'll get into the breath work and we'll get into the breath work and we'll get into the breath work and stuff. stuff. stuff. >> That's that's so true. I mean it's like >> That's that's so true. I mean it's like >> That's that's so true. I mean it's like I mean my whole life I I've been living I mean my whole life I I've been living I mean my whole life I I've been living in fight or flight mode. Uh again made in fight or flight mode. Uh again made in fight or flight mode. Uh again made more prominent because when I joined the more prominent because when I joined the more prominent because when I joined the military you're you're taught you're
18:00 military you're you're taught you're military you're you're taught you're they exaggerate that they take that they exaggerate that they take that they exaggerate that they take that point might take that point off you make point might take that point off you make point might take that point off you make you even more hyper vigilant. you even more hyper vigilant. you even more hyper vigilant. You're always on guard now and you're You're always on guard now and you're You're always on guard now and you're always scanning for the danger. Uh always scanning for the danger. Uh always scanning for the danger. Uh and that part even now like at 51 I'm and that part even now like at 51 I'm and that part even now like at 51 I'm trying to that's why like when I look at trying to that's why like when I look at trying to that's why like when I look at my breath work and things like that I'm my breath work and things like that I'm my breath work and things like that I'm I'm I'm down regulating my nervous I'm I'm down regulating my nervous I'm I'm down regulating my nervous system. I'm I'm basically to doing what system. I'm I'm basically to doing what system. I'm I'm basically to doing what you were saying there said now it's like you were saying there said now it's like you were saying there said now it's like retaching myself how to be a human retaching myself how to be a human retaching myself how to be a human >> because the military does totally >> because the military does totally >> because the military does totally dehumanize you not to feel anything. dehumanize you not to feel anything. dehumanize you not to feel anything. And you mentioned that when we were And you mentioned that when we were And you mentioned that when we were talking last time talking last time talking last time um last year that it dehumanizes um last year that it dehumanizes um last year that it dehumanizes you and I want to go deeper into that you and I want to go deeper into that you and I want to go deeper into that because we had a dialogue previously on because we had a dialogue previously on because we had a dialogue previously on like seek word use. It's like the like seek word use. It's like the like seek word use.

19:00 day at night time they would sing. So day at night time they would sing. So that would regulate their nervous that would regulate their nervous that would regulate their nervous system. So that was like a way of kind system. So that was like a way of kind system. So that was like a way of kind of being human but at the same time of being human but at the same time of being human but at the same time fighting. So I'm wondering if you can fighting.

23:00 profound shifts that I had. uh profound shifts that I had. uh when I first found the Wimhof method was when I first found the Wimhof method was when I first found the Wimhof method was like my goodness there is something else like my goodness there is something else like my goodness there is something else out here in the universe now and there's out here in the universe now and there's out here in the universe now and there's like whatever it is I mean there's like whatever it is I mean there's like whatever it is I mean there's another energy uh and once we there's another energy uh and once we there's another energy uh and once we there's something else out there and I mean something else out there and I mean something else out there and I mean that's when I started looking at other that's when I started looking at other that's when I started looking at other cultural books readings cultural books readings cultural books readings and and seeing like and believing and and and seeing like and believing and and and seeing like and believing and having faith having faith having faith uh uh in the cosmos the universe in the cosmos the universe in the cosmos the universe call it God or whatever you wish now. call it God or whatever you wish now. call it God or whatever you wish now. And it's like uh there is And it's like uh there is And it's like uh there is a creator of some sort out there cuz if a creator of some sort out there cuz if a creator of some sort out there cuz if we even look at the human body uh by we even look at the human body uh by we even look at the human body uh by design now and it's it's too perfect. design now and it's it's too perfect. design now and it's it's too perfect. It's kind of I was actually I was at the It's kind of I was actually I was at the It's kind of I was actually I was at the zoo the other day there just uh and I zoo the other day there just uh and I zoo the other day there just uh and I was looking at the monkeys and uh and I was looking at the monkeys and uh and I was looking at the monkeys and uh and I was like wow and I could actually see was like wow and I could actually see was like wow and I could actually see them walking back and I was like that's them walking back and I was like that's them walking back and I was like that's the same.

I mean, it's like we're
28:00 problems start. I mean, it's like we're problems start. I mean, it's like we're no longer in the same like the military no longer in the same like the military no longer in the same like the military society to the the civilian society. society to the the civilian society. society to the the civilian society. >> Civilian, >> Civilian, >> Civilian, >> it's two different worlds completely. >> The other thing I wanted to ask you like >> The other thing I wanted to ask you like cuz in corporate I noticed that they cuz in corporate I noticed that they cuz in corporate I noticed that they would hire a lot of people straight out would hire a lot of people straight out would hire a lot of people straight out of like the veterans, straight out of of like the veterans, straight out of of like the veterans, straight out of the military. So they invite people like the military. So they invite people like the military.

29:00 like you said there there should be some like you said there there should be some holistic practice or this sort of dial holistic practice or this sort of dial holistic practice or this sort of dial where you turn turn yourself you know. where you turn turn yourself you know. where you turn turn yourself you know. >> Yeah. And I mean like again it's like >> Yeah. And I mean like again it's like >> Yeah. And I mean like again it's like the way we communicate now in the the way we communicate now in the the way we communicate now in the military it's completely different. It's military it's completely different. It's military it's completely different. It's like how how can we actually function in like how how can we actually function in like how how can we actually function in like civilian jobs and I mean because like civilian jobs and I mean because like civilian jobs and I mean because we're we each other we call each other we're we each other we call each other we're we each other we call each other everything under the sun. I mean it's everything under the sun. I mean it's everything under the sun. I mean it's part of the job and I mean you just take part of the job and I mean you just take part of the job and I mean you just take it and it's uh if you most like in a it and it's uh if you most like in a it and it's uh if you most like in a corporate world you're probably corporate world you're probably corporate world you're probably disciplined now it's like disciplined now it's like disciplined now it's like you give a massive complaint the way we you give a massive complaint the way we you give a massive complaint the way we HR like oh he's called me this he's HR like oh he's called me this he's HR like oh he's called me this he's called me that and it's like called me that and it's like called me that and it's like >> a lot of my friends and I mean they'll >> a lot of my friends and I mean they'll >> a lot of my friends and I mean they'll say like you've joined the snowflake say like you've joined the snowflake say like you've joined the snowflake generation they're like you're a generation they're like you're a generation they're like you're a snowflake you're like what just snowflake you're like what just snowflake you're like what just >> and it is it's it's tough and I mean you >> and it is it's it's tough and I mean you >> and it is it's it's tough and I mean you you physically the man mentally tough I you physically the man mentally tough I you physically the man mentally tough I mean mean mean everything like that. I mean, it's like everything like that. I mean, it's like everything like that. I mean, it's like you've got a goal to do is do it do the you've got a goal to do is do it do the you've got a goal to do is do it do the job and that's it. job and that's it. job and that's it. And
30:00 And And that it might be hard. I mean, it's like that it might be hard. I mean, it's like that it might be hard. I mean, it's like you're so disciplined now and it's it's you're so disciplined now and it's it's you're so disciplined now and it's it's just integrated and it's like you don't just integrated and it's like you don't just integrated and it's like you don't even think about it.

32:00 it's and it is that way now I mean it it's and it is that way now I mean it doesn't solve nothing it's it's not doesn't solve nothing it's it's not doesn't solve nothing it's it's not going to the root cause now it's like I going to the root cause now it's like I going to the root cause now it's like I know friends now and it's who have got a know friends now and it's who have got a know friends now and it's who have got a lot of survivals get surv survival girl lot of survivals get surv survival girl lot of survivals get surv survival girl and they actually and they actually and they actually they don't even actually understand what they don't even actually understand what they don't even actually understand what the the the the feeling that they've got. I mean the feeling that they've got. I mean the feeling that they've got. I mean it's like what is guilt? How does that emotion feel in the body? How does that emotion feel in the body? Where is it sitting in the body? And if you look at the big three fear, And if you look at the big three fear, anger and grief anger and grief anger and grief and they're the ones that are like and they're the ones that are like and they're the ones that are like knockd flying, you all then they're all knockd flying, you all then they're all knockd flying, you all then they're all interacted and I mean it's like being and I mean it's like being hypervigilant, trained to be hypervigilant, trained to be hypervigilant, trained to be hypervigilant. You're being trained to hypervigilant. You're being trained to hypervigilant. You're being trained to be constantly aware of a threat. So be constantly aware of a threat.

And obviously the more I researched I was starting to pick more I researched I was starting to pick more I researched I was starting to pick up other literature and listen to other up other literature and listen to other up other literature and listen to other books and you start to learn more and books and you start to learn more and books and you start to learn more and you start to once you start learning you start to once you start learning you start to once you start learning stuff uh and getting other information stuff uh and getting other information stuff uh and getting other information you start to see this bigger picture you start to see this bigger picture you start to see this bigger picture unfold and I was like okay unfold and I was like okay unfold and I was like okay where is this taking me now and it's where is this taking me now and it's where is this taking me now and it's and I was like okay this is interesting. and I was like okay this is interesting. and I was like okay this is interesting. So the more I practiced, the more I So the more I practiced, the more I So the more I practiced, the more I started to feel stuff. And obviously
39:00 started to feel stuff. And obviously started to feel stuff.

41:00 society has got us living in here our society has got us living in here our head so separated from the body and once head so separated from the body and once head so separated from the body and once we reconnect them something happens we reconnect them something happens we reconnect them something happens something magical happens and we just something magical happens and we just something magical happens and we just start to feel experience things see the start to feel experience things see the start to feel experience things see the world completely different. world completely different. world completely different. So that that was the kind of thing that So that that was the kind of thing that So that that was the kind of thing that has has happened uh for me to find my has has happened uh for me to find my has has happened uh for me to find my spirituality and I mean where where is spirituality and I mean where where is spirituality and I mean where where is it going at the moment? Who knows now? it going at the moment? Who knows now? it going at the moment? Who knows now? And it's cuz I listen to so many books And it's cuz I listen to so many books And it's cuz I listen to so many books as uh I usually like when I'm working as uh I usually like when I'm working as uh I usually like when I'm working now I'll have like a like an audio book now I'll have like a like an audio book now I'll have like a like an audio book on the background.

It's and it's it's one I'm glad I found. It's and it's it's one I'm glad I found. It's and it's something that I never had my and it's something that I never had my and it's something that I never had my whole life. And here was me like seven whole life. And here was me like seven whole life. And here was me like seven years ago. I started to find it. I years ago. I started to find it. I years ago. I started to find it. I started to believe there is started to believe there is started to believe there is something something something >> and something greater than than us human
43:00 >> and something greater than than us human >> and something greater than than us human beings. There is a lot of power out beings. There is a lot of power out beings. There is a lot of power out there guiding us. Yeah. It's amazing how you transition to Yeah. It's amazing how you transition to the the from all the way from like you saying from all the way from like you saying from all the way from like you saying your youth to this context is just your youth to this context is just your youth to this context is just unfolding. It's so beautiful to hear unfolding. It's so beautiful to hear unfolding. It's so beautiful to hear this journey. Um, and I'm just wondering this journey. Um, and I'm just wondering this journey. Um, and I'm just wondering like what took you after you came out like what took you after you came out like what took you after you came out the the the military, what took you into the the the military, what took you into the the the military, what took you into this wanting to go to therapy or wanting this wanting to go to therapy or wanting this wanting to go to therapy or wanting to seek these things? Was it because to seek these things? Was it because to seek these things? Was it because it's quite easy just to go to the pub or it's quite easy just to go to the pub or it's quite easy just to go to the pub or to go through other things. But what to go through other things. But what to go through other things. But what what made you essentially try to seek in what made you essentially try to seek in what made you essentially try to seek in psychology or seek for answers? Well, at psychology or seek for answers? Well, at psychology or seek for answers? Well, at the time it was uh since leaving the the time it was uh since leaving the the time it was uh since leaving the military, I mean, I left the the army military, I mean, I left the the army military, I mean, I left the the army through a more big crash, put left me in through a more big crash, put left me in through a more big crash, put left me in a wheelchair for, you know, this part of

These are tools I'm going to learn which These are tools I'm going to learn which These are tools I'm going to learn which are going to make me feel better. So, are going to make me feel better. So, are going to make me feel better. So, that's my mindset. that's my mindset. that's my mindset. uh going on the second pillar. The uh going on the second pillar. The uh going on the second pillar. The second pillar is the breath work. second pillar is the breath work. second pillar is the breath work. Breath work is 40 30 to 40 intentional Breath work is 40 30 to 40 intentional Breath work is 40 30 to 40 intentional breath from the diaphragm. Uh after that breath from the diaphragm. Uh after that breath from the diaphragm. Uh after that you'll go after your 30 or 40th breath you'll go after your 30 or 40th breath you'll go after your 30 or 40th breath you'll you'll go into our attention you'll you'll go into our attention you'll you'll go into our attention that's an you'll hold your breath on an that's an you'll hold your breath on an that's an you'll hold your breath on an exhale cuz most people hold their breath
53:00 exhale cuz most people hold their breath exhale cuz most people hold their breath on an inhale cuz if you ask somebody on an inhale cuz if you ask somebody on an inhale cuz if you ask somebody hold their breath and go hold their breath and go hold their breath and go >> but if you what I do through a workshop >> but if you what I do through a workshop >> but if you what I do through a workshop I'd ask you to hold your breath on an I'd ask you to hold your breath on an I'd ask you to hold your breath on an exhale so I'd be like fully in fully out exhale so I'd be like fully in fully out exhale so I'd be like fully in fully out stop breathing stop breathing stop breathing so you're emptying your lungs. so you're emptying your lungs. so you're emptying your lungs. Uh after that Uh after that Uh after that after about a minute and a half maybe after about a minute and a half maybe after about a minute and a half maybe two minutes you'll feel the urge to two minutes you'll feel the urge to two minutes you'll feel the urge to breathe. At that point you're your breathe. At that point you're your breathe. At that point you're your body's actually producing adrenaline and body's actually producing adrenaline and body's actually producing adrenaline and cortisol cortisol cortisol and not epinephrine and it's there to and not epinephrine and it's there to and not epinephrine and it's there to like make you breathe like make you breathe like make you breathe and at that point uh if you feel the gas and at that point uh if you feel the gas and at that point uh if you feel the gas the urge to breathe. So you'll take a the urge to breathe. So you'll take a the urge to breathe. So you'll take a breath in then we'll ask you to squeeze breath in then we'll ask you to squeeze breath in then we'll ask you to squeeze from the paranium from the paranium from the paranium uh pushing the blood up your spine to uh pushing the blood up your spine to uh pushing the blood up your spine to your head. So you'll do that four times. your head. So you'll do that four times. your head. So you'll do that four times. Then after that we'll have a bit of time Then after that we'll have a bit of time Then after that we'll have a bit of time just to relax and chill out. Uh maybe just to relax and chill out. Uh maybe just to relax and chill out. Uh maybe share talk
54:00 share talk share talk and then maybe about 15 20 minutes later and then maybe about 15 20 minutes later and then maybe about 15 20 minutes later once everybody's calm and relaxed uh once everybody's calm and relaxed uh once everybody's calm and relaxed uh we'll get ready for the ice and then at we'll get ready for the ice and then at we'll get ready for the ice and then at that point we'll go in for a nice bath. that point we'll go in for a nice bath. that point we'll go in for a nice bath. But again practicing at home we never do But again practicing at home we never do But again practicing at home we never do the breath work anywhere near water. the breath work anywhere near water. the breath work anywhere near water. always in a safe place. So again, it's always in a safe place. So again, it's always in a safe place. So again, it's like your alarm clock goes off in the like your alarm clock goes off in the like your alarm clock goes off in the morning. Best thing you can do is just morning. Best thing you can do is just morning. Best thing you can do is just put a set of headphones on, do your put a set of headphones on, do your put a set of headphones on, do your breath work there and then or get up and breath work there and then or get up and breath work there and then or get up and lie on the floor. Do breath work lie on the floor. Do breath work lie on the floor. Do breath work somewhere safe, a safe environment. somewhere safe, a safe environment. somewhere safe, a safe environment. Nowhere, not in showers, not in rivers, Nowhere, not in showers, not in rivers, Nowhere, not in showers, not in rivers, not in locks, not in legs. Uh not in locks, not in legs. Uh not in locks, not in legs. Uh especially not when you're driving. So especially not when you're driving. So especially not when you're driving. So it's always in a safe environment. it's always in a safe environment. it's always in a safe environment. And at that point onwards after that uh And at that point onwards after that uh And at that point onwards after that uh once you're done your breath work you're once you're done your breath work you're once you're done your breath work you're nice and calm and relaxed. nice and calm and relaxed. nice and calm and relaxed. Uh but also with the breath work we're Uh but also with the breath work we're Uh but also with the breath work we're producing dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin producing dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin producing dopamine, oxytocin, serotonin and endorphins which are all happy and endorphins which are all happy and endorphins which are all happy hormones. hormones. hormones. So then we go into the water and we're So then we go into the water and we're So then we go into the water and we're using the water as the way I look at it
55:00 using the water as the way I look at it using the water as the way I look at it is we're using the water uh as used well is we're using the water uh as used well is we're using the water uh as used well it is used stress. It's a positive it is used stress. It's a positive it is used stress. It's a positive stressor not a negative stressor. But I stressor not a negative stressor. But I stressor not a negative stressor. But I also I mean a way I like to look at it also I mean a way I like to look at it also I mean a way I like to look at it is where you got to use it as a like a is where you got to use it as a like a is where you got to use it as a like a tub boost. Our body's filled with all tub boost. Our body's filled with all tub boost. Our body's filled with all these happy hormones. We're going to go these happy hormones. We're going to go these happy hormones. We're going to go into this stressful environment into this stressful environment into this stressful environment uh consciously uh consciously uh consciously sit down in the ice or get into the cold sit down in the ice or get into the cold sit down in the ice or get into the cold shower, experience the stress, which is shower, experience the stress, which is shower, experience the stress, which is going to increase our heart rate, but going to increase our heart rate, but going to increase our heart rate, but it's also increasing the blood flow it's also increasing the blood flow it's also increasing the blood flow around the body. So if you think about around the body. So if you think about around the body. So if you think about it, you've got all these happy hormones it, you've got all these happy hormones it, you've got all these happy hormones in your body and next minute you go into in your body and next minute you go into in your body and next minute you go into this cold shower or cold water. this cold shower or cold water. this cold shower or cold water. You're you're switching on the fight or You're you're switching on the fight or You're you're switching on the fight or flight mode. You're then the body's flight mode. You're then the body's flight mode. You're then the body's getting then flooded with all these getting then flooded with all these getting then flooded with all these happy hormones are getting pushed around happy hormones are getting pushed around happy hormones are getting pushed around the body like a million miles an hour. the body like a million miles an hour. the body like a million miles an hour. So you go in the water for maybe it So you go in the water for maybe it So you go in the water for maybe it doesn't have to be like 20 minutes or doesn't have to be like 20 minutes or doesn't have to be like 20 minutes or there's no need. I mean the magic there's no need. I mean the magic there's no need. I mean the magic happens after 2 minutes.
56:00 happens after 2 minutes. happens after 2 minutes. 90 seconds to two minutes depending on 90 seconds to two minutes depending on 90 seconds to two minutes depending on your physiology and that's when the your physiology and that's when the your physiology and that's when the heart magic happens. Any longer than heart magic happens. Any longer than heart magic happens. Any longer than that is just fun. You're not really that is just fun. You're not really that is just fun. You're not really getting any more benefits from it. getting any more benefits from it. getting any more benefits from it. So we're going for two two to three So we're going for two two to three So we're going for two two to three minutes at the the max thing come out. minutes at the the max thing come out. minutes at the the max thing come out. Then then we'll look at warming up and Then then we'll look at warming up and Then then we'll look at warming up and letting the body heat up naturally using letting the body heat up naturally using letting the body heat up naturally using the horse stance. the horse stance. the horse stance. And so like then so the 90 minutes And so like then so the 90 minutes And so like then so the 90 minutes seconds to 2 minutes depending on your seconds to 2 minutes depending on your seconds to 2 minutes depending on your physiology. So I guess if you're a bit physiology. So I guess if you're a bit physiology. So I guess if you're a bit more in the skinny side it would be less more in the skinny side it would be less more in the skinny side it would be less >> uh time and then I would take time to >> uh time and then I would take time to >> uh time and then I would take time to put my body into that state right put my body into that state right put my body into that state right because I started doing cold showers and because I started doing cold showers and because I started doing cold showers and I don't know if it's right or wrong but I don't know if it's right or wrong but I don't know if it's right or wrong but I put on my body but then I put on my I put on my body but then I put on my I put on my body but then I put on my head like should it go directly on the head like should it go directly on the head like should it go directly on the crown and breathing at the same time crown and breathing at the same time crown and breathing at the same time >> with with a breath. I mean, it's it's >> with with a breath. I mean, it's it's >> with with a breath. I mean, it's it's just controlled breathing. It's just just controlled breathing. It's just just controlled breathing. It's just nasal breathing with long exhales. And nasal breathing with long exhales. And nasal breathing with long exhales. And that's that's all it is. And I mean, that's that's all it is. And I mean, that's that's all it is. And I mean, that's all we're doing. What we're
57:00 that's all we're doing. What we're that's all we're doing. What we're trying to steady like when you're trying to steady like when you're trying to steady like when you're getting cold, you're got to get the gas getting cold, you're got to get the gas getting cold, you're got to get the gas reflex. You got to be like reflex. You got to be like reflex. You got to be like hyperventilating, like try to catch your hyperventilating, like try to catch your hyperventilating, like try to catch your breath because it is so cold. But again, breath because it is so cold. But again, breath because it is so cold. But again, if we can just control our breath, we if we can just control our breath, we if we can just control our breath, we can control the stress. So, it's long can control the stress. So, it's long can control the stress. So, it's long exhale in and a long exhale out. Then once we've and a long exhale out. Then once we've caught our breath and we've relaxed in caught our breath and we've relaxed in caught our breath and we've relaxed in the water, that's fine. Uh the water, that's fine. Uh the water, that's fine. Uh we have to watch what we're doing when we have to watch what we're doing when we have to watch what we're doing when because you can go into the malmanian d because you can go into the malmanian d because you can go into the malmanian d reflex which we try and we don't want. reflex which we try and we don't want. reflex which we try and we don't want. So again with people that come in So again with people that come in So again with people that come in workshops I don't advise them not to put workshops I don't advise them not to put workshops I don't advise them not to put their head under the water then their head under the water then their head under the water then experience a thing called shallow water experience a thing called shallow water experience a thing called shallow water blackout. blackout. blackout. >> Uh which we don't want because if you >> Uh which we don't want because if you >> Uh which we don't want because if you pass out underwater you you need waking pass out underwater you you need waking pass out underwater you you need waking up and so we try and keep away from up and so we try and keep away from up and so we try and keep away from that. So keep your head above a bar. If that. So keep your head above a bar. If that. So keep your head above a bar. If you get up around your ears, you get up around your ears, you get up around your ears, uh it's obviously got to stimulate the uh it's obviously got to stimulate the uh it's obviously got to stimulate the nav the vagus nerve. Uh but again, when nav the vagus nerve. Uh but again, when nav the vagus nerve. Uh but again, when we're in cold showers, again, when we're
58:00 we're in cold showers, again, when we're we're in cold showers, again, when we're if you're rubbing your body and rubbing if you're rubbing your body and rubbing if you're rubbing your body and rubbing your face, uh what we're doing, we're your face, uh what we're doing, we're your face, uh what we're doing, we're actually stimulating the the lymphatic actually stimulating the the lymphatic actually stimulating the the lymphatic system as well. system as well. system as well. >> So, and that's obviously a key benefit >> So, and that's obviously a key benefit >> So, and that's obviously a key benefit to keep the lymph fluid moving around to keep the lymph fluid moving around to keep the lymph fluid moving around around the body, around the body, around the body, >> right? And I also know from Dr. Susanna >> right? And I also know from Dr. Susanna >> right? And I also know from Dr. Susanna Sobberg from Denmark that there's also Sobberg from Denmark that there's also Sobberg from Denmark that there's also brown fat around the spinal system and brown fat around the spinal system and brown fat around the spinal system and and now we're modern day and uh because and now we're modern day and uh because and now we're modern day and uh because of the demo and things that brown fat is of the demo and things that brown fat is of the demo and things that brown fat is becoming less. So we're basically unable becoming less. So we're basically unable becoming less. So we're basically unable to and we're wearing warm clothes all to and we're wearing warm clothes all to and we're wearing warm clothes all the time. So we're basically unable to the time. So we're basically unable to the time. So we're basically unable to have that regulation inside our body. have that regulation inside our body. have that regulation inside our body. And I come from an immigrant family so I And I come from an immigrant family so I And I come from an immigrant family so I suffer for like Reynolds, right? because suffer for like Reynolds, right? because suffer for like Reynolds, right? because like maybe our uh generations haven't like maybe our uh generations haven't like maybe our uh generations haven't been adapted to Scotland very well. So been adapted to Scotland very well. So been adapted to Scotland very well. So like that's al also probably something I like that's al also probably something I like that's al also probably something I should probably do as well is like should probably do as well is like should probably do as well is like >> I think you do lock you're doing locks >> I think you do lock you're doing locks >> I think you do lock you're doing locks as well right as well right as well right >> locks rubbers again even like you've got >> locks rubbers again even like you've got >> locks rubbers again even like you've got rains and I mean you can put your hands
59:00 rains and I mean you can put your hands rains and I mean you can put your hands in cold water just a bucket of cold in cold water just a bucket of cold in cold water just a bucket of cold water put your hands in it water put your hands in it water put your hands in it >> in for a minute out for a minute in for >> in for a minute out for a minute in for >> in for a minute out for a minute in for a minute out for a minute because what a minute out for a minute because what a minute out for a minute because what you're doing you're exercising your you're doing you're exercising your you're doing you're exercising your capillaries capillaries capillaries you're exercising every cell in the body you're exercising every cell in the body you're exercising every cell in the body cuz when you go to the gym we go and cuz when you go to the gym we go and cuz when you go to the gym we go and lift weights and we're giving it lift weights and we're giving it lift weights and we're giving it extensions contract expand, contract, extensions contract expand, contract, extensions contract expand, contract, expansion, contraction. We can do that expansion, contraction. We can do that expansion, contraction. We can do that with every cell in the body. And if with every cell in the body. And if with every cell in the body. And if you're doing it with your compeller you're doing it with your compeller you're doing it with your compeller using veins, trading with the code, using veins, trading with the code, using veins, trading with the code, which you're doing, you're going to which you're doing, you're going to which you're doing, you're going to increase the size of uh the veins, the increase the size of uh the veins, the increase the size of uh the veins, the capillaries, the arteries, which capillaries, the arteries, which capillaries, the arteries, which increases blood flow. I mean, when we increases blood flow. I mean, when we increases blood flow. I mean, when we think of our cardiovascular system as a think of our cardiovascular system as a think of our cardiovascular system as a central heat system of the human body, central heat system of the human body, central heat system of the human body, if we've got big strong if we've got big strong if we've got big strong pipelines pipelines pipelines going through our body, we're going to going through our body, we're going to going through our body, we're going to have really warm have really warm have really warm blood flow throughout the body. blood flow throughout the body. blood flow throughout the body. >> So, it's the way I kind of like explain >> So, it's the way I kind of like explain >> So, it's the way I kind of like explain it to some people now because some
1:00 it to some people now because some it to some people now because some people say, "Cool feet." I'm like, people say, "Cool feet." I'm like, people say, "Cool feet." I'm like, "Well, train, put your feet in cold "Well, train, put your feet in cold "Well, train, put your feet in cold water." And they're like, "What? Your water." And they're like, "What? Your water." And they're like, "What? Your feet are soon heat up. feet are soon heat up. feet are soon heat up. No, you put them in the cold and start No, you put them in the cold and start No, you put them in the cold and start training with them. You again, you're training with them. You again, you're training with them. You again, you're training the capillaries in your feet training the capillaries in your feet training the capillaries in your feet and you they do the next minute they're and you they do the next minute they're and you they do the next minute they're like went home or they come to workshop like went home or they come to workshop like went home or they come to workshop and we just put your hands and feet in and we just put your hands and feet in and we just put your hands and feet in ice. They go home and they're like, ice. They go home and they're like, ice. They go home and they're like, "Darn, my feet are roasting and it's "Darn, my feet are roasting and it's "Darn, my feet are roasting and it's like 12:00 at night. I can't get to like 12:00 at night. I can't get to like 12:00 at night. I can't get to sleep cuz my feet are too warm." This sleep cuz my feet are too warm." This sleep cuz my feet are too warm." This morning you were complaining your feet morning you were complaining your feet morning you were complaining your feet were cold. were cold. were cold. >> They're hard. >> They're hard. >> They're hard. >> Well, again, it's just it's it's once we >> Well, again, it's just it's it's once we >> Well, again, it's just it's it's once we train our feet now. And it's like these train our feet now. And it's like these train our feet now. And it's like these elements that it just makes your life so elements that it just makes your life so elements that it just makes your life so much easier and better. You're talking much easier and better. You're talking much easier and better. You're talking about adipos tissue and brain fat about adipos tissue and brain fat about adipos tissue and brain fat activation. I mean again it's it's it's activation. I mean again it's it's it's activation. I mean again it's it's it's really important for us to to deal with really important for us to to deal with really important for us to to deal with this and it doesn't have to be ice b. I this and it doesn't have to be ice b. I this and it doesn't have to be ice b. I can be wearing a can be wearing a can be wearing a less of a jumper and I mean we take a less of a jumper and I mean we take a less of a jumper and I mean we take a wear a lighter jacket in a cold day cuz wear a lighter jacket in a cold day cuz wear a lighter jacket in a cold day cuz our body is then doing what it's doing our body is then doing what it's doing our body is then doing what it's doing meant to do. Thermore regulation, meant to do. Thermore regulation, meant to do. Thermore regulation, thermogenesis burn body fat
1:01 thermogenesis burn body fat thermogenesis burn body fat is is designed to use the food we eat to is is designed to use the food we eat to is is designed to use the food we eat to generate heat generate heat generate heat as energy. as energy. as energy. And if we can do that now, and it's it's And if we can do that now, and it's it's And if we can do that now, and it's it's just it's amazing what this human body just it's amazing what this human body just it's amazing what this human body can do. can do. can do. It's like we cut our hand, put plaster It's like we cut our hand, put plaster It's like we cut our hand, put plaster on it, couple of days later, we take the on it, couple of days later, we take the on it, couple of days later, we take the plaster off and it's healed. plaster off and it's healed. plaster off and it's healed. So if we put the body in the right So if we put the body in the right So if we put the body in the right environment environment environment with the right support, it'll heal with the right support, it'll heal with the right support, it'll heal properly. properly. properly. And like folk like Joe the Spenza and And like folk like Joe the Spenza and And like folk like Joe the Spenza and stuff like that, they they've seen it in stuff like that, they they've seen it in stuff like that, they they've seen it in the extreme sense where people are are the extreme sense where people are are the extreme sense where people are are healing their bodies from cancer and healing their bodies from cancer and healing their bodies from cancer and things like that things like that things like that through these holistic practice things through these holistic practice things through these holistic practice things like I mean it's through mindset like I mean it's through mindset like I mean it's through mindset but again it's it's changing the way we but again it's it's changing the way we but again it's it's changing the way we think. We have to change the way we think. We have to change the way we think. We have to change the way we think in society these days now. And think in society these days now. And think in society these days now. And it's like this body as a self-healing it's like this body as a self-healing it's like this body as a self-healing organism. It if we put it in the right organism. It if we put it in the right organism. It if we put it in the right right environment and water it right environment and water it right environment and water it preferably with cold water,
1:02 preferably with cold water, preferably with cold water, it will heal. It will heal every day it will heal. It will heal every day it will heal. It will heal every day now. And it's slowly and surely it will now. And it's slowly and surely it will now. And it's slowly and surely it will heal. So again, taking this back to it's heal. So again, taking this back to it's heal. So again, taking this back to it's like we are just nature. So we're human like we are just nature. So we're human like we are just nature. So we're human nature. We're no different from a plant nature. We're no different from a plant nature. We're no different from a plant in the garden. in the garden. in the garden. That's true. And we've forgotten how to That's true. And we've forgotten how to That's true. And we've forgotten how to use this because of the systems and use this because of the systems and use this because of the systems and environment we're in. environment we're in. environment we're in. >> And what you were sharing there about >> And what you were sharing there about >> And what you were sharing there about the breath and holding it like the the breath and holding it like the the breath and holding it like the technique of holding the per pneum technique of holding the per pneum technique of holding the per pneum and when I was looking into Wimhof it and when I was looking into Wimhof it and when I was looking into Wimhof it was based on like some shamanic was based on like some shamanic was based on like some shamanic breathing also yogic breathing. So they breathing also yogic breathing. So they breathing also yogic breathing. So they would go through the differenti centers would go through the differenti centers would go through the differenti centers of the body and take this take this of the body and take this take this of the body and take this take this energy upwards. Um, so it's it's very energy upwards. Um, so it's it's very energy upwards. Um, so it's it's very interesting how Wimhof's method is very interesting how Wimhof's method is very interesting how Wimhof's method is very close to these. close to these. close to these. >> Oh, yeah. I mean, it's like >> Oh, yeah. I mean, it's like >> Oh, yeah. I mean, it's like you're booked into you're booked into you're booked into >> like an hour >> like an hour >> like an hour talking about G energy and stuff like talking about G energy and stuff like talking about G energy and stuff like that. Yeah. I mean, Prana is all there that. Yeah. I mean, Prana is all there that. Yeah. I mean, Prana is all there now. I've got I was given these books uh
1:03 now. I've got I was given these books uh now. I've got I was given these books uh like the really old books on like the really old books on like the really old books on like yoga really old books. Oh, like yoga really old books. Oh, like yoga really old books. Oh, now this which I've not again I've not now this which I've not again I've not now this which I've not again I've not read but again it's just to even be read but again it's just to even be read but again it's just to even be given like this little manual now it's given like this little manual now it's given like this little manual now it's beautiful. Um beautiful. Um beautiful. Um what what secrets are held in there what what secrets are held in there what what secrets are held in there and I'm looking forward to reading them and I'm looking forward to reading them and I'm looking forward to reading them now once I get to the chance. Another now once I get to the chance. Another now once I get to the chance. Another book I'm reading is uh The Alchemist book I'm reading is uh The Alchemist book I'm reading is uh The Alchemist with Touchi Ch. with Touchi Ch. with Touchi Ch. >> Oh yeah. >> Oh yeah. >> Oh yeah. >> Amazing brain goes into the body in so many ways not body the body in so many ways not body movements movements movements again again again >> using the breath very similar to Ayurveda and what we use very similar to Ayurveda and what we use in our tradition is also music. So I in our tradition is also music. So I in our tradition is also music. So I know you you talked about sound know you you talked about sound know you you talked about sound vibration. So we have like gin rags so vibration. So we have like gin rags so vibration. So we have like gin rags so mantras to help move these emotions and
1:04 mantras to help move these emotions and mantras to help move these emotions and I'm wondering if you could also share I'm wondering if you could also share I'm wondering if you could also share your journey of yoga and sound tapering. your journey of yoga and sound tapering. your journey of yoga and sound tapering. When did you start getting into that? When did you start getting into that? When did you start getting into that? >> I got into movement maybe about uh >> I got into movement maybe about uh >> I got into movement maybe about uh it's when I went out and done started it's when I went out and done started it's when I went out and done started experiencing movement first when I was experiencing movement first when I was experiencing movement first when I was out doing my my level one instructorship out doing my my level one instructorship out doing my my level one instructorship with the with the path method because with the with the path method because with the with the path method because movement is much part of that as well. movement is much part of that as well. movement is much part of that as well. Hence why I don't have like any seats in Hence why I don't have like any seats in Hence why I don't have like any seats in the house. We were talking earlier about the house. We were talking earlier about the house. We were talking earlier about about moving. She always keeps you about moving. She always keeps you about moving. She always keeps you moving moving moving uh changing your your body position uh changing your your body position uh changing your your body position and the more we move the the more and the more we move the the more and the more we move the the more flexible we'll become. And flexible we'll become. And flexible we'll become. And from there from there from there I've got a basic practice in yoga and I I've got a basic practice in yoga and I I've got a basic practice in yoga and I mean it's it's just more mainly for mean it's it's just more mainly for mean it's it's just more mainly for flexibility and stuff like that. uh was flexibility and stuff like that. uh was flexibility and stuff like that. uh was to stop you seizing up. But with sound to stop you seizing up. But with sound to stop you seizing up. But with sound uh uh once you started looking at the signs once you started looking at the signs once you started looking at the signs and things like that of that was and things like that of that was and things like that of that was actually happening in the human body and
1:05 actually happening in the human body and actually happening in the human body and you see I mean you understand like each you see I mean you understand like each you see I mean you understand like each cell in the body vibrates at a certain cell in the body vibrates at a certain cell in the body vibrates at a certain frequency frequency frequency now and an electrical frequency and it's now and an electrical frequency and it's now and an electrical frequency and it's like you you start seeing the effects or like you you start seeing the effects or like you you start seeing the effects or or getting into sound baths you start or getting into sound baths you start or getting into sound baths you start feeling the benefits of sound. uh which feeling the benefits of sound. uh which feeling the benefits of sound. uh which again led me on a becoming a sound again led me on a becoming a sound again led me on a becoming a sound practitioner learning how to play the practitioner learning how to play the practitioner learning how to play the gong from a gong practitioner I hold gong from a gong practitioner I hold gong from a gong practitioner I hold sound bass as well now so again it's and sound bass as well now so again it's and sound bass as well now so again it's and feeling the power of sound feeling the power of sound feeling the power of sound now and it's again it takes you into the now and it's again it takes you into the now and it's again it takes you into the world of spirituality and it's like we world of spirituality and it's like we world of spirituality and it's like we forget forget forget how powerful like you were saying there how powerful like you were saying there how powerful like you were saying there about mantras and things like that uh about mantras and things like that uh about mantras and things like that uh and we we hear weird and how like monal and we we hear weird and how like monal and we we hear weird and how like monal like you use the word or or like you use the word or or like you use the word or or again what are they doing? I mean again what are they doing? I mean again what are they doing? I mean they're resonating with sound. they're resonating with sound. they're resonating with sound. Why? Because these are healing Why? Because these are healing Why? Because these are healing frequencies
1:06 and we're we're and we're we're they're bringing their body back in like they're bringing their body back in like they're bringing their body back in like homeostasis homeostasis homeostasis or raising their consciousness by them or raising their consciousness by them or raising their consciousness by them >> in a subtle level cuz like the >> in a subtle level cuz like the >> in a subtle level cuz like the conversations getting a little bit more conversations getting a little bit more conversations getting a little bit more subtler will cuz it's still on the body subtler will cuz it's still on the body subtler will cuz it's still on the body but it's just like you said on the but it's just like you said on the but it's just like you said on the cellular level. So I've been to a sound cellular level. So I've been to a sound cellular level. So I've been to a sound bath once. So, I think I opened an event bath once. So, I think I opened an event bath once. So, I think I opened an event bar the other day and you just see tons bar the other day and you just see tons bar the other day and you just see tons of sand baths in Glasgow in Scotland of sand baths in Glasgow in Scotland of sand baths in Glasgow in Scotland coming up. So, I'm wondering like what coming up. So, I'm wondering like what coming up. So, I'm wondering like what does go what does a gong what does being does go what does a gong what does being does go what does a gong what does being a gong practitioner do? So, what what a gong practitioner do? So, what what a gong practitioner do? So, what what does that kind of do and what does that does that kind of do and what does that does that kind of do and what does that give for the body and for the practice? give for the body and for the practice? give for the body and for the practice? >> Again, I mean with the gong I mean it's >> Again, I mean with the gong I mean it's >> Again, I mean with the gong I mean it's uh it's most people think of a gong as uh it's most people think of a gong as uh it's most people think of a gong as they'll just go and strike it like no. they'll just go and strike it like no. they'll just go and strike it like no. >> Yeah. Well, that's what I thought until >> Yeah. Well, that's what I thought until >> Yeah. Well, that's what I thought until I start sad day by I start sad day by I start sad day by >> by a beautiful woman called Paul Spears. >> by a beautiful woman called Paul Spears. >> by a beautiful woman called Paul Spears. I mean, it's I mean, it's
1:07 I mean, it's probably one of the best probably one of the best probably one of the best gong teachers uh in in the UK if not gong teachers uh in in the UK if not gong teachers uh in in the UK if not Europe, if not further a field. She's Europe, if not further a field. She's Europe, if not further a field. She's playing the gong for playing the gong for playing the gong for go I can't remember how long she's been go I can't remember how long she's been go I can't remember how long she's been playing for but again to hear what a playing for but again to hear what a playing for but again to hear what a gong can do the gong is I took the gong gong can do the gong is I took the gong gong can do the gong is I took the gong out to Italy last year out to Italy last year out to Italy last year uh with 11 other 10 other women method uh with 11 other 10 other women method uh with 11 other 10 other women method instructors and I gave them a sound bath instructors and I gave them a sound bath instructors and I gave them a sound bath just with the gong just with the gong just with the gong and the look that came off their face and the look that came off their face and the look that came off their face after it after 40 minutes of being after it after 40 minutes of being after it after 40 minutes of being subjected to this sound was I thought subjected to this sound was I thought subjected to this sound was I thought they' just done like 10 rounds of power they' just done like 10 rounds of power they' just done like 10 rounds of power breathing cuz they were just sat there breathing cuz they were just sat there breathing cuz they were just sat there like like like you can physically see them pulling you can physically see them pulling you can physically see them pulling themsel back into like what we call like themsel back into like what we call like themsel back into like what we call like reality and like a conscious stakes. reality and like a conscious stakes. reality and like a conscious stakes. They went that deep and that relaxed. They went that deep and that relaxed. They went that deep and that relaxed. And it's something I've always said. I And it's something I've always said. I And it's something I've always said. I mean it's like if people fall asleep mean it's like if people fall asleep mean it's like if people fall asleep during like a breath work session or a during like a breath work session or a during like a breath work session or a sound bath mission accomplished
1:08 sound bath mission accomplished sound bath mission accomplished >> cuz you've regulated it to that point. >> cuz you've regulated it to that point. >> cuz you've regulated it to that point. They've they've they've been able to They've they've they've been able to They've they've they've been able to relax that much they switched off and relax that much they switched off and relax that much they switched off and fell asleep. fell asleep. fell asleep. >> Like what are they? They're at rest and >> Like what are they? They're at rest and >> Like what are they? They're at rest and that's what we want. I mean we want that's what we want. I mean we want that's what we want. I mean we want people to feel rest again going back to people to feel rest again going back to people to feel rest again going back to the stage like parasympathetic nervous the stage like parasympathetic nervous the stage like parasympathetic nervous system rest and digest. So we're system rest and digest. So we're system rest and digest. So we're resting. We're we're at ease. Uh resting. We're we're at ease. Uh resting. We're we're at ease. Uh so yeah, so yeah, so yeah, it's really really interesting it's really really interesting it's really really interesting uh where uh where uh where it's at the moment I'm thinking about it's at the moment I'm thinking about it's at the moment I'm thinking about with the breath and sound with the breath and sound with the breath and sound which is which is it's quite it's quite which is which is it's quite it's quite which is which is it's quite it's quite fun. Uh but yeah I mean I I wouldn't say fun. Uh but yeah I mean I I wouldn't say fun. Uh but yeah I mean I I wouldn't say I'm I'm a master with sound or anything I'm I'm a master with sound or anything I'm I'm a master with sound or anything like that or a master at breast work. I like that or a master at breast work. I like that or a master at breast work. I mean, but what I've learned is a lot uh mean, but what I've learned is a lot uh mean, but what I've learned is a lot uh to guide people through using sound to guide people through using sound to guide people through using sound safely uh and experiencing sound safely.
1:09 safely uh and experiencing sound safely. safely uh and experiencing sound safely. It's again it's It's again it's It's again it's there's there's the science behind sound there's there's the science behind sound there's there's the science behind sound is changing so much and I mean it's gone is changing so much and I mean it's gone is changing so much and I mean it's gone back to back to back to they're talking about how even now the they're talking about how even now the they're talking about how even now the Egyptians may have used sound to move Egyptians may have used sound to move Egyptians may have used sound to move rock rock rock and there's there's so much out there. and there's there's so much out there. and there's there's so much out there. It goes back to sacred geometry as well. It goes back to sacred geometry as well. It goes back to sacred geometry as well. So now there's these frequencies are are So now there's these frequencies are are So now there's these frequencies are are resonating through our body at all resonating through our body at all resonating through our body at all times. And again it also takes you back times. And again it also takes you back times. And again it also takes you back to disease cuz you're not resonating to disease cuz you're not resonating to disease cuz you're not resonating that your natural state that your natural state that your natural state >> your natural frequency. >> your natural frequency. >> your natural frequency. >> Yeah. Again it's when we look at like >> Yeah. Again it's when we look at like >> Yeah. Again it's when we look at like I've got bowls there and I went and I've got bowls there and I went and I've got bowls there and I went and found out the frequencies and obviously found out the frequencies and obviously found out the frequencies and obviously these these seven bowls are all in tune these these seven bowls are all in tune these these seven bowls are all in tune with your chakras. So obviously each with your chakras. So obviously each with your chakras. So obviously each chakra has got each chakra's got a chakra has got each chakra's got a chakra has got each chakra's got a frequency. >> Each organ's got a different frequency >> Each organ's got a different frequency and sound
1:10 and sound and sound as well. I mean it's it can change now. as well. I mean it's it can change now. as well. I mean it's it can change now. It's like whilst we're talking It's like whilst we're talking It's like whilst we're talking and say we started speaking at the same and say we started speaking at the same and say we started speaking at the same time there's two frequencies then time there's two frequencies then time there's two frequencies then becoming three with the words we speak. becoming three with the words we speak. becoming three with the words we speak. And within your singing power of And within your singing power of And within your singing power of singing, singing, singing, people can sh crystal glasses with a people can sh crystal glasses with a people can sh crystal glasses with a with a voice. So again, it then takes with a voice. So again, it then takes with a voice. So again, it then takes you into seeing like how powerful our you into seeing like how powerful our you into seeing like how powerful our words are words are words are and how can they affect people like spelling. like spelling. And if you really think about it, what And if you really think about it, what And if you really think about it, what are you doing? You're casting spells, are you doing? You're casting spells, are you doing? You're casting spells, you're casting words. So it's it's interesting the the things So it's it's interesting the the things that I've I've learned and I think about that I've I've learned and I think about that I've I've learned and I think about it some days I it's sound is a beautiful it some days I it's sound is a beautiful it some days I it's sound is a beautiful thing. I mean I play for myself as much
1:11 thing. I mean I play for myself as much thing. I mean I play for myself as much as I do play for other people cuz when I as I do play for other people cuz when I as I do play for other people cuz when I am playing it I'm in the middle of it am playing it I'm in the middle of it am playing it I'm in the middle of it and whatever I'm feeling can be and whatever I'm feeling can be and whatever I'm feeling can be projected out through the gong and the projected out through the gong and the projected out through the gong and the bowls as well and other sound tools I've bowls as well and other sound tools I've bowls as well and other sound tools I've got. So I have to be wary of like what got. So I have to be wary of like what got. So I have to be wary of like what how I feel prior to getting a sound how I feel prior to getting a sound how I feel prior to getting a sound bath. I give one bath. I give one bath. I give one most times I if I'm not feel if I feel most times I if I'm not feel if I feel most times I if I'm not feel if I feel anything un towards it like if I don't anything un towards it like if I don't anything un towards it like if I don't feel that great I'll do breath work for feel that great I'll do breath work for feel that great I'll do breath work for it it just again to bring myself back in in just again to bring myself back in in just again to bring myself back in in the present moment and feel centered the present moment and feel centered the present moment and feel centered then I can obviously then I can obviously then I can obviously work and give a good performance. work and give a good performance. work and give a good performance. Amazing. Amazing. Amazing. It reminds me of um so this is called It reminds me of um so this is called It reminds me of um so this is called nad yoga. So nad is like the sound of nad yoga. So nad is like the sound of nad yoga. So nad is like the sound of vibration and we talking about this in vibration and we talking about this in vibration and we talking about this in the previous episode as well. It's like the previous episode as well. It's like the previous episode as well. It's like using that certain mantra chant like you
1:12 using that certain mantra chant like you using that certain mantra chant like you were saying that invokes certain emotion were saying that invokes certain emotion were saying that invokes certain emotion um with that nad yoga it's called kin. um with that nad yoga it's called kin. um with that nad yoga it's called kin. So you'd combine the mantras with the um So you'd combine the mantras with the um So you'd combine the mantras with the um the sound and the singing and the the sound and the singing and the the sound and the singing and the instrument movements to cause in the instrument movements to cause in the instrument movements to cause in the person and also in the event the changes person and also in the event the changes person and also in the event the changes in the people. So their heart can in the people. So their heart can in the people. So their heart can resonate at these different frequencies. resonate at these different frequencies. resonate at these different frequencies. So the the tradition I come from is like So the the tradition I come from is like So the the tradition I come from is like a technology of different raers. So ra a technology of different raers. So ra a technology of different raers. So ra is like a mu musical melody. is like a mu musical melody. is like a mu musical melody. >> Yeah. So you have the musical melody and >> Yeah. So you have the musical melody and >> Yeah. So you have the musical melody and you also have the words written by you also have the words written by you also have the words written by enlightened beings. So that's kind of enlightened beings. So that's kind of enlightened beings. So that's kind of like how how our tradition connects to like how how our tradition connects to like how how our tradition connects to sound and vibration and healing and sound and vibration and healing and sound and vibration and healing and things like that. And I just find how things like that. And I just find how things like that. And I just find how the science and spirituality match up so the science and spirituality match up so the science and spirituality match up so beautiful the way you explained as well.
1:13 beautiful the way you explained as well. beautiful the way you explained as well. >> Yeah. as it's there there's a definite >> Yeah. as it's there there's a definite >> Yeah. as it's there there's a definite shift and we're speaking some saying shift and we're speaking some saying shift and we're speaking some saying there's a definite shift in there's a definite shift in there's a definite shift in consciousness now at the moment consciousness now at the moment consciousness now at the moment >> not just here in Scotland or UK across >> not just here in Scotland or UK across >> not just here in Scotland or UK across Europe Europe Europe and right across the whole world now and and right across the whole world now and and right across the whole world now and you can actually physically feel this you can actually physically feel this you can actually physically feel this shift happening and which is is pushing shift happening and which is is pushing shift happening and which is is pushing uh humanity in the right direction. So we just have to keep sharing the word So we just have to keep sharing the word and keep going and see what happens. and keep going and see what happens. and keep going and see what happens. >> And you were in Europe you were >> And you were in Europe you were >> And you were in Europe you were mentioning as well like I don't know if mentioning as well like I don't know if mentioning as well like I don't know if you want to share anything about how you you want to share anything about how you you want to share anything about how you felt that um journey was or like yeah felt that um journey was or like yeah felt that um journey was or like yeah how you felt was connecting to different how you felt was connecting to different how you felt was connecting to different cultures and people in the journey as cultures and people in the journey as cultures and people in the journey as well. well. well. The funny thing is is that the the heart The funny thing is is that the the heart The funny thing is is that the the heart centerness that connected us all
1:14 centerness that connected us all centerness that connected us all >> from I've been traveling from like here >> from I've been traveling from like here >> from I've been traveling from like here in Scotland all the way out to Holland in Scotland all the way out to Holland in Scotland all the way out to Holland from Holland down in through Germany uh from Holland down in through Germany uh from Holland down in through Germany uh went down to the Sherland temple uh in went down to the Sherland temple uh in went down to the Sherland temple uh in the south of Germany from there through the south of Germany from there through the south of Germany from there through Austria Austria Austria right up through and he brought Slava in right up through and he brought Slava in right up through and he brought Slava in Slovakia. Slovakia. Slovakia. Uh, every person that I've met, they all and this is the thing now. It's they all and this is the thing now. It's like people are like, "Wasn't it scary?" like people are like, "Wasn't it scary?" like people are like, "Wasn't it scary?" I'm like, "No, I'm like, "No, I'm like, "No, it wasn't." I mean, I didn't meet it wasn't." I mean, I didn't meet it wasn't." I mean, I didn't meet anybody that was anybody that was anybody that was aggressive or angry or like dangerous or aggressive or angry or like dangerous or aggressive or angry or like dangerous or anything like that. anything like that. anything like that. They're all just nice people. And and this is the thing now. And so And and this is the thing now. And so again, it goes back to one one of the again, it goes back to one one of the again, it goes back to one one of the things I was taught by a woman by an things I was taught by a woman by an things I was taught by a woman by an Austrian woman called Christina. Austrian woman called Christina. Austrian woman called Christina. She told me, D, she's like, "Darn, you She told me, D, she's like, "Darn, you She told me, D, she's like, "Darn, you you don't have to feel 100% safe. All you don't have to feel 100% safe. All you don't have to feel 100% safe. All you have to do is feel safe enough."
1:15 you have to do is feel safe enough." you have to do is feel safe enough." >> And it was quite a quite a profound >> And it was quite a quite a profound >> And it was quite a quite a profound teaching she gave me with that. Uh, and teaching she gave me with that. Uh, and teaching she gave me with that. Uh, and it's something that stays with me. I it's something that stays with me. I it's something that stays with me. I mean, again, it's because we do we live mean, again, it's because we do we live mean, again, it's because we do we live in a society where we're all scared and in a society where we're all scared and in a society where we're all scared and we're all looking over our shoulder. I we're all looking over our shoulder. I we're all looking over our shoulder. I mean where we shouldn't be I mean this mean where we shouldn't be I mean this mean where we shouldn't be I mean this it goes back to keep us in disregulated it goes back to keep us in disregulated it goes back to keep us in disregulated and the more we can embrace each other and the more we can embrace each other and the more we can embrace each other and come from a heart-c centered area and come from a heart-c centered area and come from a heart-c centered area and I mean we're going to change and I mean we're going to change and I mean we're going to change people's perceptions or and living in people's perceptions or and living in people's perceptions or and living in fear I mean from and again that again fear I mean from and again that again fear I mean from and again that again will change will change will change uh the effects of how children the the uh the effects of how children the the uh the effects of how children the the younger generation are now growing up younger generation are now growing up younger generation are now growing up again they'll be able to embrace each again they'll be able to embrace each again they'll be able to embrace each other regardless of their culture their other regardless of their culture their other regardless of their culture their religion and I create the color. I mean, religion and I create the color. I mean, religion and I create the color. I mean, it doesn't matter. I mean, it's it doesn't matter. I mean, it's it doesn't matter. I mean, it's it's where it's coming from. And if it it's where it's coming from. And if it it's where it's coming from. And if it come from if we're heart centered and come from if we're heart centered and come from if we're heart centered and heart led, uh it's is going to make a heart led, uh it's is going to make a heart led, uh it's is going to make a massive difference. massive difference. massive difference. >> Absolutely. I think just being heartled >> Absolutely. I think just being heartled >> Absolutely. I think just being heartled is is that shift like you were talking
1:16 is is that shift like you were talking is is that shift like you were talking about at the start, the brain and the about at the start, the brain and the about at the start, the brain and the heart. And I was just also wondering if heart. And I was just also wondering if heart. And I was just also wondering if you have any insight into maybe why the you have any insight into maybe why the you have any insight into maybe why the social structures are this way. um how social structures are this way. um how social structures are this way. um how people can begin to recognize people can begin to recognize people can begin to recognize that they're in this structure that's that they're in this structure that's that they're in this structure that's keeping them in fear or maybe why this keeping them in fear or maybe why this keeping them in fear or maybe why this might be the case. might be the case. might be the case. I know it's the power to be that we're I I know it's the power to be that we're I I know it's the power to be that we're I think they want us to be in fear cuz if think they want us to be in fear cuz if think they want us to be in fear cuz if we're not living in fear and I mean if we're not living in fear and I mean if we're not living in fear and I mean if we are living up here we're not reaching we are living up here we're not reaching we are living up here we're not reaching our our full potential. our our full potential. our our full potential. >> Again we're as human beings we we've got >> Again we're as human beings we we've got >> Again we're as human beings we we've got so much so much so much potential out there to give. potential out there to give. potential out there to give. uh if you're scared and scared to go out uh if you're scared and scared to go out uh if you're scared and scared to go out the house or scared to embrace something the house or scared to embrace something the house or scared to embrace something new like somebody else's culture or go new like somebody else's culture or go new like somebody else's culture or go and experience and sit and listen to and experience and sit and listen to and experience and sit and listen to other people's wisdom other people's wisdom other people's wisdom h you become narrow-minded and obviously h you become narrow-minded and obviously h you become narrow-minded and obviously one of the books I was reading was
1:17 one of the books I was reading was one of the books I was reading was talking about how this actually hardens talking about how this actually hardens talking about how this actually hardens the heart >> and so now and if you're you're which >> and so now and if you're you're which again leads to again leads to again leads to a hard heart I mean it's like you don't a hard heart I mean it's like you don't a hard heart I mean it's like you don't want to have a hard heart. I mean, you want to have a hard heart. I mean, you want to have a hard heart. I mean, you have want to have an open one and and have want to have an open one and and have want to have an open one and and see the divine human in somebody else see the divine human in somebody else see the divine human in somebody else now. And it's like, what are what is now. And it's like, what are what is now. And it's like, what are what is that person? I mean, that person is that person? I mean, that person is that person? I mean, that person is another conscious being now. And it's another conscious being now. And it's another conscious being now. And it's and again, it's going down to their and again, it's going down to their and again, it's going down to their education. They've just been taught the education. They've just been taught the education. They've just been taught the wrong stuff. Uh if we can teach them the wrong stuff. Uh if we can teach them the wrong stuff. Uh if we can teach them the right stuff, right stuff, right stuff, the change in society is going to be the change in society is going to be the change in society is going to be massive. massive. massive. Wow, that's powerful. It goes back to Wow, that's powerful. It goes back to Wow, that's powerful. It goes back to the education how we're taught, how our the education how we're taught, how our the education how we're taught, how our consciousness is being suppressed now. consciousness is being suppressed now. consciousness is being suppressed now. And you could go down rabbit holes And you could go down rabbit holes And you could go down rabbit holes looking at like why is there why is looking at like why is there why is looking at like why is there why is there fluoride in the water? Why is there fluoride in the water? Why is there fluoride in the water? Why is there fluoride? We're told to brush our there fluoride? We're told to brush our there fluoride? We're told to brush our teeth for fluoride and stuff like that. teeth for fluoride and stuff like that. teeth for fluoride and stuff like that. Yeah. And it's like people like it's
1:18 Yeah. And it's like people like it's Yeah. And it's like people like it's conspiracy theories. conspiracy theories. conspiracy theories. But is it fluoride is not naturally produced by fluoride is not naturally produced by the body. So why are we putting that in the body. So why are we putting that in the body. So why are we putting that in the body? the body? the body? We know boiling water kills any bacteria We know boiling water kills any bacteria We know boiling water kills any bacteria in water. in water. in water. So there's no need for fluoride to be in So there's no need for fluoride to be in So there's no need for fluoride to be in your water. >> So again, we So what is that fluoride >> So again, we So what is that fluoride that is in the water or isn't the that is in the water or isn't the that is in the water or isn't the toothpaste toothpaste toothpaste h doing to the body? Like even the h doing to the body? Like even the h doing to the body? Like even the chemicals, I mean deodorants and things chemicals, I mean deodorants and things chemicals, I mean deodorants and things like that. You're spraying chemicals on like that. You're spraying chemicals on like that. You're spraying chemicals on your body. The skin is the biggest your body. The skin is the biggest your body. The skin is the biggest organ. It's it's absorbent. organ. It's it's absorbent. organ. It's it's absorbent. We absorb things through our skin. It's We absorb things through our skin. It's We absorb things through our skin. It's going into your bloodstream. It's going going into your bloodstream. It's going going into your bloodstream. It's going into your it'll go into your brain, your into your it'll go into your brain, your into your it'll go into your brain, your bloodb brain barrier. Now it'll get into bloodb brain barrier. Now it'll get into bloodb brain barrier. Now it'll get into every organ. So again, we can look at every organ. So again, we can look at every organ. So again, we can look at these things like why are we these things like why are we these things like why are we what what are the the effects of this what what are the the effects of this what what are the the effects of this happening?
