Cognitive Dissonance: The conflicting mirror and mind paradox
09/14/21 • 34 min
Ep #134 - You know how you get a feeling inside of yourself when what you say you are doing doesn't align with what you are actually doing? You know how you feel when you look in the mirror and the person looking back at you does not look like the person you think you are in your mind. The main problem is we have this "ideal" self and then we have our actual self - the person living in the external reality created by our internal world.
We both know this can be fixed. We know this because we have experienced it before, hell, we are experiencing it right now in our Sobriety and Recovery journeys. Imagine that there is a simple process you can learn in order to pull yourself out of the incongruence you feel and into the harmoniousness that comes from having your beliefs and your actions align. Well, it's time to take this from your imagination and into your reality!
Just hit play and lets dive into our open minds, hearts, and energies bringing everyone into the fold - you are in the right place, at the right time...right now.
Stand up, step forward, raise your hand - it's your turn, I will call on you.

Growth Mindset, Emotional Energy, and Gratitude
Ep #133 - Developing your growth mindset is essential for your development from sobriety to recovery. As you focus in on what you desire from yourself during this transition it is important to realize that alcohol and drugs are not the only things you can find yourself addicted to.
Poor communication, ignoring those around you in favor of your phone, not being present in your own life, and of course the usual suspects of sex, gambling, sugar, and the like all have the grips on civilization.
Journey with me as we discuss how you can begin to rewire your brain in a way that guides you to the source of empowerment - your own mind and the infinite wisdom it possesses.
Stand up, step forward, raise your hand - it's your turn, I will call on you.
