Is it possible to change? Why do we find it so hard? What prevents us from changing? And why do we keep failing?

In this podcast episode, I share the answer to these questions and more. I share some personal stories of my own struggles. I talk about the nature of addiction, why we really get hooked, and most importantly, how to become free once and for all.

Please enjoy other episodes where I share meditation techniques, tips and spi...

We are all searching for something. We are all on a journey. And to some extent, we all have a restless mind. It is the nature of being alive. We move, we age, we learn and we grow.

The question is, what are we searching for? Are we staying focused or getting distracted? Are we getting closer or further away? And is it the right goal, the right destination we're moving toward, the place that will bring us the peace and happines...

We've never had more ways to escape boredom than we do today. And yet, we've never been more impatient, anxious, and antsy. 

So why so much discontentment when we have so many ways to pass the time? Why such unhappiness despite having infinite entertainment in our pockets? And why are our attention spans shorter than ever?

In this podcast, I share the truth about boredom. I discuss why we feel it, what it truly is, and how ...

If the unexamined life is not worth living, the unexamined mind is not worth having.

Who are we? At the deepest sense of ourselves? What is this consciousness peering out at the world? And is it possible to turn our awareness back on itself?

If we fail to look at ourselves, to understand who we truly are, to understand our unconscious thought patterns and habits, we are doomed to repeat our past, to live an unintentional life, and to...

Spirituality and success are not mutually exclusive endeavors. You don't have to give up all your possessions and move to a cave in India to meditate in solitude in order to find happiness. 

Steve Jobs showed us that you can be spiritual and successful. He showed us how spirituality can actually lead to greater success. And he shared how spirituality actually led to him being able to enjoy instead of losing himself in the insat...

Words hurt. The unkind words and actions of others can hurt far worse than physical pain. Physical pain is fleeting, but disappointment, betrayal, disrespect and cruelty can last a lifetime and change us forever.

So what can we do? Is there a way for other people's words and actions not to effect us? Is it truly possible to stay at peace, even when you're home for Thanksgiving with all the people who know exactly how to pu...

Why isn't peaceful oneness our natural way of being? Why does it seem so hard to break free from our fears and pain? Why do we fall for the illusion of separateness? Why is there even this illusion that makes us suffer and feel alone?

In this podcast, I get to the heart of why our thinking causes us so much misery. I talk about why we fall for illusions. I discuss the root cause of internal and external conflict in this world. ...

Life is made up of hard choices. It's those big moments that define our lives. It's not the outcome that matters. It's those precious moments where we get to decide which direction our life takes. We put so much pressure on ourselves to make the right decision, but we forget that it's the journey and freedom of having options that makes life so meaningful.

The heart is always open to new possibilities, the gut gu...

Why are we here? Seriously, what's the point? Why is there a universe where we lose everyone we love and everybody dies? Why is there war and famine and widespread poverty? Is there a purpose? What purpose could there be for all this suffering? Is life a cruel joke?

These are the age-old questions that have puzzled humans for thousands of years. But perhaps we've been looking for answers in the wrong places. 

In this podcas...

What can we do when the world is burning all around us? How can we stay hopeful when we are surrounded by hopelessness? What is the point of life when we have nothing to live for?

I know that our world can sometimes feel dark, scary, lonely and meaningless. Every hundred years, nearly every single human will die. A slow moving apocalypse is coming for each of us. Our whole world will one day be shattered and destroyed. Everyone we k...

Why do bad things happen to good people? Why do good things happen to bad people? And more importantly, why can we have everything in life and still feel empty inside?

Is karma why some people seem to have all the luck? Is there cosmic justice in the afterlife? Some kind of Heaven or Hell? Is life totally random? Or is there some other explanation?

In today's podcast, I explore these timeless topics. I talk about why life can se...

We can move forward from any mistakes. We can be freed from all regrets. And we can gain from both wisdom and courage. None of us are slaves to our past.

The fact is, notions of regret and mistake live only in the mind. We did not choose our circumstances or our brains. These self-imposed prisons are merely illusions we carry with us.

So many of us spend so much of our lives feeling regret for mistakes we've made in the past. It...

Does every human being have Buddha nature and Hitler potential within them? Are we destined to exist within one of these extremes? Are we forced to live according to our programming — genetic, cultural and familial — or are we capable of rewriting our future? Do we all truly have the potential to achieve Buddhahood, Christ consciousness, and Krishna consciousness. And if so, how?

The more we understand what makes a person who they a...

Relationships are both the greatest sources of happiness we can find in our lives, and the greatest sources of pain and suffering. Not only can relationships cause us tremendous heartache, but the lack or loss of them can be even more heart-wrenching.

So what are we supposed to do? Live as hermits in solitude? Live as doormats to be taken advantage of? Live in constant conflict? Or is there a better way, a way we can enjoy the delig...

We all want our life to be all peaks all the time. We want maximum enjoyment, pleasure, satisfaction and achievement every moment of our waking lives. Even when we're asleep, we want the best dreams on the best mattress and sheets. 

We want to always be at the peak of the rollercoaster of life. We want to reach the peak of the mountain without doing the hard, grudging work to get there. Not only do we want it, but we've co...

Why do we give great advice to others and yet we have a hard time following it ourselves? What is the root cause of our own self-sabotage? Why do we keep making the same mistakes over and over again? And what can we do to break the cycle?

In this podcast, I talk about why we keep failing to make positive changes and I share a simple 3-step process for breaking free from that inner voice that keeps giving us bad ideas.

If we want to s...

We are all addicts. Every single one of us is addicted. And it's not to our phone, alcohol, food, work, substances, gambling, sex, shopping or whatever else you may think it is. 

Some of us are wild and out of control. And some of us are able to manage our addiction. But we all struggle, we exhaust ourselves putting forth tremendous effort to refrain, and in the end we either cave in or temporarily fight off. But we all have th...

Who’s your best friend? Did you say yourself? You should, because there’s no one more important to you than you. You may think there is, but you can only experience other people through your own state of consciousness. So your state of consciousness is the most important determining factor for your relationships and your happiness in life.

So how do you treat yourself? How do you talk to yourself? Are you loving and kind, or critica...

There is an epidemic sweeping the world. You may have it and not even know it.

That disease is called denialism, and it's not just psychological. It manifests as physical symptoms and can negatively impact every aspect of our life.

We live in a world where appearances matter more than truth. We are rewarded if we can shove down our pain, ignore our stress, and drown our sorrows. But when all of those problems bubble under the su...

What if your entire life is being shaped by wounds you don’t even know you have?
Most of us carry emotional scars buried so deep, we’re not even aware they exist. And because we don’t see them, we don’t know we need healing—let alone how to begin.

Trauma isn’t always dramatic. Sometimes, it’s subtle. It’s the weight of things unspoken, inherited pain passed down from generations, childhood moments that left marks, or a...
