Ep. 109: Lessons of the Tao Te Ching: Be Like Water
07/25/22 • 41 min
“Be formless...shapelesss....like water. You put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. Put water into a teapot, it becomes the tea pot.“ - Bruce Lee
The energy of our world is far imbalanced to the Yang (of the Yin/Yang) energy of go, go, go. Its a trap most of us fall into in our modern world. To help break this programming, we take our first dive into the Lessons of the Tao Te Ching; an ancient philosophical writing that sparked an entire belief system. Heath talks about how a recent (long overdue) vacation brought him to the ocean’s edge, and coincidentally a lesson popped up on how we need to BE LIKE WATER. Heath tells how a synchonistic turn of events led to him stumbling across a Wayne Dyer clip that resulted in a “nudge” from the universe.
That nudge was to be a little less “notice me” and incorporate a calmer sense of being through non-action. The ultimate message; stop focusing on DO-ing and focus more on BE-ing!!!!!

Ep. 108: Presence & Knowing The Authentic Self w/ Alexis McQuillen
In this episode, I have the absolute pleasure of introducing one of the newest and brightest change-makers in the world today: Alexis McQuillen. This amazing thought leader shares her story about how her childhood living with a mother who suffered from heavy addition lead her to the amazing path she is on now. But that story brought with it a great deal of pain as she describes to us how her mother ultimately succumbed to addiction, and how that circumstance in her life transformed the path she was on and ultimately the person she was to become.
Alexis is now an unbelievably talented self-awareness coach who I have had the pleasure of getting to know over the past year. We are often teaming up in several Clubhouse rooms and dropping knowledge bombs like we did in this episode.

Ep.110: The Human Energy (Chakra) System w/ Dr. Susan Corso
There is so much that influences our lives, our feelings of wellbeing and our overall health and prosperity. We are so rooted in the physical aspects of being, we don't stop to consider the non-physical (meta-physical). Our subtle energy body is well known through many cultures spanning over thousands of years, but we are just starting to rediscover it all and how important it can be for our overall health.
Dr. Susan Corso is an expert author on the subject of the Chakra Human Energy System. She gives us an amazing introduction into the chakra‘s, and how this percieved non-physical (which all of it is physical down to our smallest particles of existance). She shares her experiences through decades of study and practice of working with peoples energy systems to break down this science and take it from the realm of mystical into a well respected field of study.
