When people start reaching this moment, my goodness,
they are overcoming themselves and now they're at that perfect place to create.
And my definition of creation is when I forget about myself. That's when you're
free alright. So if the word meditation means become familiar with rights, then
you know people say - Oh well, you shouldn't focus on the negative, well
really that's 95 percent of who you are and you got to begin to dismantle or
denature that old personality and that means you're gonna have to come up
against the cravings that the body has emotionally you know like it is it's 8
o'clock in the morning and you're doing your meditation you're normally in
traffic and you want to get angry and your body's going hey you're off
schedule let me just find it something that's mapped in the brain that I bring
up a past experience why you can feel a little anger well know once you become
aware of that now now the game is on because now you're working to become
conscious of that and not go unconscious again and it takes an incredible amount
of awareness yes it takes a great amount of consciousness and you can of
consciousness without energy so you got to raise your energy in order to get to
otherwise you're gonna be consumed yes you're gonna we turn back right so gosh
so if you start becoming familiar so conscious of those unconscious thoughts
they would never slip by your mind and check by you now that is when you really
yes yourself right and the research shows that you can get better at this
you could actually sense the thought before it comes so then you start firing
and wiring new thoughts you start thinking to yourself Who am I gonna be
when I open my eyes well how am I gonna I'm gonna make a difference in the world
today Who am I gonna be am I gonna love how am I gonna give how am I gonna serve
how am I going to contribute what do what things do I want to really do today
and the in the act of closing your eyes and just thinking about and rehearsing
what you're gonna do your brain doesn't know the difference and if you get
caught up in it you'll begin to install the neurological hardware in your brain
to look like you've already done it on it now the brains no longer a record of
the past now it's a map to the future you are priming your brain and if you
keep doing it yes the hardware will become a software program you know what
that means you just might start acting like a happy
person well there's no surprise there you installed the circuits stress
hormones arouse the body so you have your attention on your body stress
hormones alert the brain so you're aware of everything in your environment like
an octopus with tentacles in all different directions you got to control
and predict everything in your life and if you're living by the hormones of
stress you're always investing your attention and energy into the known
future based on the past so you're on you're on you're on a line of time here
the time line so then let's think about it how you gonna make thought more real
than anything else I gonna create from font well let's close our eyes let's
disconnect from the environment right less sensory information coming into the
brain less distraction as you said let's play some soft music in the background
let's stick some earplugs in our a whatever you want to do diminish sensory
but now you're sitting down you're not eating you're not tasting you're not
smelling you're not feeling so there's more less less sensory input coming into
your body so then now your brainwaves begin to change they start slowing down
and you move from this beta brainwave pattern where you're aware that you have
a body in space and time or your attention is on the outer world or your
senses or giving you information less sensory information now your inner world
starts becoming more real than the outer world and you're not the voice in your
head that's always talking to you as your brainwaves change you start seeing
images and pictures and symbols and less in that vocalization that
subvocalization so your brain waves start changing the Alpha you're gonna
start creating start dreaming pretending right so then if you say to your body
you're gonna sit down for an hour and I know you're on a program because you
wake up every morning and do the exact same thing and now I'm gonna make you
sick just like sent to an animal you sit you stay and your body's gonna say I'm
gonna die my bladders gonna explode I need a coffee I got a lot of emails to
do that's the program and you say to your body today we do battle today this
and you sit through that and you make your way even though your body's trying
to get up and you keep settling it back down I'm telling you when you start your
day that day you will be more kind more loving less judgmental more patient more
present because you're mastering the present moment that means you're not in
the predictable future you're not in the familiar past you're mastering time and
so then if where you place your attention is where you place your energy
and all of your attention is in the present moment it's got a lot of energy
to do amazing things and you know when someone's present with you in your life
because they're paying attention to you and you know when they're not present
they're not paying attention to so so the act of getting more present means so
you're putting a lot of energy in the present moment and if you're taking your
power back from all these things and people in your life so we teach people
this as they start breaking through and they start being able to unfold into
this field as an awareness and they're not putting their attention on their
boss or their ex or their wife or their kids or their cell phone or their
whatsapp or their Facebook that they're there they're they're not thinking at
all so then as they're sensing the space they can't think and if you can't think
you can't analyze and if you can't analyze the analytical mind is what
separates the conscious mind from the subconscious just opened the door Wow
and so now you can reprogram in there all right so then it's so important than
that of the infinite places you can put your attention let's put it on your
heart now where you place your attention is where you place your energy why
because we want this Center to bloom 1,400 1,300 different chemicals that we
storm regenerate the body let's breathe let's open this up let's practice this
let's start learn how to lead with a heart a different consciousness yeah in
the beginning it's a little difficult but we stay with it and you practice it
petal by petal by petal placing your attention there you're putting your own
life force back into your heart you're turning your love inward and the body
will start responding and in a week's time if we're doing that three times a
day or over and over again sooner or later that things
start blooming and just like when your sexual organs are aroused than their
engorged with blood this Center when you start feeling loved you make a chemical
called oxytocin oxytocin signals nitric oxide nitric oxide signals a chemical
called derived and the figlio relaxing factor you know what that is it causes
the arteries in your heart to literally open up so your heart is gonna be filled
with blood and oxygen and nutrients it's physiological it's going to feel full
but you're gonna have a hard-on that's right and when that happens you
experience a level of love that passes all understanding you your cup runneth
over I mean it is and people are in there
sobbing because they realize that this the center of finally like a child
so then back to your question let's demystify meditation because it has so
many stigmas around it close your eyes retreat from your life disconnect from
your body disconnect from your environment disconnect from your
schedule and just give yourself an hour or 45 minutes or in 20 minutes because
when you invest in yourself you invest in your future and when you believe in
yourself you believe in possibilities and when you believe in possibilities
you believe in yourself and if you don't believe in possibilities then you don't
believe in yourself and you don't believe in yourself you don't believe in
possibilities so then but if you have a community a living organism yeah where
it's becoming the new normal yes you want to join that living organism and
you want to you want to be a part of that and in every every stride you make
feeds the living organism every stride every effort you make to connect is is
amazing because that which we are seeking is seeking us it's not like it
is it matches our efforts yeah and so then when when people have that
uncompromising will yeah the same way that they go shopping for a dress or a
pair of earrings or go to the gym and workout with the same intensity with the
same passion come up against themselves and just say when the body's going given
everything it has it's when you say that's all you got that's it that's all
you're gonna put out - I'm ready yeah and so then when you start overcoming
that the side effect that is that all of a sudden you're happy for no reason
mmm and you're less seduced in believing that something else
you need something outside of it outside of you to make you feel better all of a
sudden you're feeling better every day without anything outside of you mm-hmm
and now all of a sudden you start showing up unpredictable in your life
they're saying that Ed guy he's different there's different medications
but in actuality you're just freer right and so so then as we begin to remove
these layers that stop the flow of the divine in us that have an essence in us
the side effect is we become more willful you become more mindful become
more conscious we become more loving it's it's its nature you know it just it
just becomes becomes who we are
