(01:48):
Let's get started.
Okay.
The first thing is the lies that we are fed.
.999Let's start by uncovering the lies we're fed every single day.
.9995The FDA, the very organization that is supposed to protect our health is complicit in promoting foods that are slowly killing us. 18 00:02:04,49.9995 --> 00:02:05,180 The food pyramid is a lie. 19 00:02:05,749.999 --> 00:02:10,350 Processed foods are filled with additives, preservatives, and sugars that wreak havoc on our bodies.
(02:10):
These ingredients are linked to a myriad of health issues, including obesity, diabetes, and heart disease.
Just take a look at the labels on some of these foods.
When you go to the market, you'll see a long list of chemicals that you can't even pronounce.
High fructose corn syrup, artificial sweeteners, hydrogenated oils.
.999These are not things our bodies are meant to consume, yet they are in almost everything that we eat. 25 00:02:35,219.999 --> 00:02:40,770 Why? Because these ingredients are cheap, they extend shelf life, and they make food taste good.
(02:41):
.999They keep you coming back for more. 27 00:02:42,679.999 --> 00:02:45,580 They are designed to be addictive.
But it's not just about what it's in our foods.
It's also about what we're told about our food.
We're bombarded with marketing messages that convince us that these products are not only safe but essential.
Think about the commercials for like sugary cereals, sodas, and fast food, right? They're marketed as fun, convenient, and even healthy. 32 00:03:04,194.999 --> 00:03:05,375 The truth is far from it.
(03:06):
And then there's alcohol.
.999Well, we're constantly told that a drink here and there is harmless, even beneficial, but alcohol is a toxin.
It affects your liver, your brain, and your overall health.
It impairs your judgment and it can lead to addiction. 37 00:03:20,529.999 --> 00:03:23,410 Despite this it's ingrained in our culture as normal.
and even desirable.
.999So many ultra processed foods, they hit the brain when we eat them and they have a strong effect on its reward system, which involves pleasure, motivation, and learning.
(03:36):
This is similar to the effect of nicotine, alcohol, and other addictive substances.
So the bottom line is we're being fed a steady diet.
Of lies, lies about what to eat, what to drink and what to watch these lies.
They are designed to keep us in a state of compliant consumption, never questioning, never waking up to the reality of what we're doing to ourselves, but you can break free.
(04:02):
You just have to choose to see that truth that I'm talking about.
Take control of your health and your life.
So it really starts with recognizing the lies and understand the impact they have on you.
.999Once you see through this facade, you can begin to make changes that will lead to a healthier and more fulfilling life. 48 00:04:19,529.999 --> 00:04:28,415 Now, breaking free from the matrix, breaking free from this matrix starts with Awareness, the concept of the matrix.
(04:28):
.999It isn't just a sci fi fantasy movie, it's a metaphor for the web of lies and all the manipulations that keep us unhealthy.
They keep us in those cycles.
And whether it's the food we eat, the drinks we consume, or the media we indulge in, these elements are designed Literally, they're designed to keep us trapped, imprisoned.
For a long time, I made that my life.
I had excuses for why I could eat junk food, drink alcohol, consume media that wasn't good for me, because I believed it was all part of being an American, enjoying the freedoms that were promised, you know, a hot dog and a ball game.
(05:00):
But that's just part of the system, the blue pill that keeps us complacent.
Now when I decided to get sober, it wasn't just about quitting alcohol.
It was about waking up.
To the reality of all the harmful effects I had adopted.
I realized that these habits were not serving me.
They were controlling me.
The journey was not easy.
(05:20):
You face resistance from every angle, friends, family, society.
.999They're all still plugged into the matrix and they don't understand why you're trying to break free.
In fact, they'll get pissed when you try to talk about it.
So imagine living in a fog and then one day that fog lifts, you see the world clearly for the first time.
That's what it feels like to break free suddenly aware of the chemicals in the food, the toxins, your drinks and the negative influences in media.
(05:45):
And you realize that true health and happiness come from making conscious choices, not from following the crowd. 67 00:05:52,324.999 --> 00:05:55,114.999 So recognizing the truth, that's the first step.
The second step is taking action.
Start by questioning everything.
Like, read the labels, research ingredients, educate yourself, use ChatGPT.
.999Learn about what you're putting in your body and say no to processed foods, say no to alcohol and addictive media.
(06:09):
.999Replace them with whole foods, water, and enriching content.
.999The more you detoxify your life, the clearer your mind becomes. 74 00:06:17,139.999 --> 00:06:19,880 You start to see the lies for what they are.
You begin to understand that these habits were never about enjoyment or freedom.
They were about control.
.999The system profits from keeping you addicted and dependent.
.9995Think about big pharma, but you don't have to stay in that matrix. 79 00:06:32,859.9995 --> 00:06:34,310 You can choose to take control.
(06:34):
It's not going to be easy.
Like I said, you're going to face criticism and temptation, but over time it gets better.
The scales fall from your eyes, and you see the world as it truly is.
And most importantly, your life becomes yours.
That's what's awesome.
For better or worse, it's your life.
.999And you have the power then to make it what you want.
You take back control and now that we've uncovered the lies, we know them and we understand the matrix is real.
(06:59):
Let's talk about how to break free and live conscious healthy life.
Now here are the five steps you need to take to reclaim your health and your life. 90 00:07:08,609.999 --> 00:07:10,699.999 The first step is you've got to question everything. 91 00:07:10,699.999 --> 00:07:13,680 Like I said, the first step is questioning everything that you've been told.
.999This means looking beyond the surface, digging deeper, reading the labels, looking at the information that is actually presented to you and analyzing it.
(07:21):
Don't just take anything at base value.
Whether it's food, labels, advertisement, social norms, ask yourself, who benefits from this? Is it really in my best interest? Next, it's crucial to reject all of those substances that are holding you back.
This includes processed foods filled with chemicals, alcohol that impairs your health and your judgment, and porn that distorts your perception of relationships and totally controls your intimacy.
(07:46):
These elements are designed to keep you dependent and unfulfilled.
And by saying no to these harmful substances, you take a significant step toward regaining control over your life.
Embrace whole natural foods. 99 00:07:59,124.999 --> 00:08:04,735 I go to farmer's markets instead of filling your body with toxins and you nourish it with whole foods.
Go to the farmer's market, buy meat, eat steak, eat it, eat less grain.
(08:09):
Do not eat as many grains.
You don't need that.
You need the meat.
You need the fat.
Our bodies are built to store fat and use that fat.
And cholesterol is not such a bad thing.
Look it up. 108 00:08:21,299.999 --> 00:08:22,340 High cholesterol. 109 00:08:22,549.999 --> 00:08:23,810 It's not a terrible thing to have.
It helps your brain function, exercise regularly, sleep well.
These are all very important aspects of your physical and your emotional well being.
(08:33):
Trust me on that.
Start eating meat.
Cultivate a mindset of awareness and self improvement.
Living consciously means being aware of your thoughts and your actions and your surroundings.
.999It means getting in touch, like, it means constantly striving to improve yourself and your circumstances.
This could be through learning new skills, setting personal goals, or simply being more mindful of your daily choices, right? Awareness is the key to breaking free from the autopilot mode that many of us live in.
(09:01):
So by staying present and focused, you can make better decisions that align with your true values and desires.
Step five, stay resilient in the face of opposition.
Breaking free from the matrix is not easy and you will face resistance.
.999Friends, family, and society may not understand your choices and may even criticize you for them.
(09:21):
But remember, this is your life.
You stay resilient and committed to your path.
Surround yourself with supportive people who understand and respect your journey.
And most importantly, be patient with yourself. 126 00:09:33,164.999 --> 00:09:36,145 Changes take time and setbacks are part of the process.
.999So keep moving forward and eventually you will see the results of your efforts.
(09:41):
Everything we've covered today, living a conscious life, is about making deliberate choices that serve your well being in line with your true self.
So, it's about rejecting those lies, remember, and manipulations that keep you trapped and taking control of your own destiny. 130 00:09:55,724.999 --> 00:10:03,165 By following those five steps that I gave you, you can totally break free from the matrix and live a life of true freedom and fulfillment.
