Speaker 3 (00:55):
Hey, good morning, Welcome to another ast expert show where
we bring you the top experts in the field of legal, health,
financial and home improvement. This is the first Wednesday of
the month, and that means I show that I circle
that I every month. I am so excited about the show.

(01:15):
I'm so excited about the show. We actually replay it
every week every Wednesday at ten o'clock Eastern time, and
none of our shows do we actually even allow that,
but this show is so important. Let me introduce you
to I now call my friend, doctor Eldrick Taylor of

(01:39):
the Taylor Medical Group. Good warning, doctor Taylor. Hey, I
made you smile?

Speaker 4 (01:46):
Yeah, yeah, well yeah, we are friends. Yeah, there's no
doubt about it. We've been together what almost three years,
so yes, we need to be friends, all right. We
don't want to be the opposite. If we were enemies,
I wouldn't still be doing this. Yeah, doctor Taylor.

Speaker 3 (02:01):
I am so in awe of where you've come from,
because I don't know. You started off as an ob
gin doctor. And let me tell you something. Obg y
n doctors they make a lot of money, but their
hours are incredible. And you basically gave up this incredible

(02:23):
practice you had because you saw a need for uh,
the area of medicine that a lot of people don't
even understand, and it is evolved. We started off with
weight loss, then we went to stress. And I have
learned so much from your show, doctor Taylor, and you

(02:44):
made a trip to Egypt, and I guess it's kind
of changed your life.

Speaker 4 (02:50):
Yeah, yeah, well that was just the beginning of the change,
you know, So I'll start from the beginning. Yeah. I
was eventually trained in obgyn and practice for about six
or seven years until my wife started having hormone problems
and I was doing what I was caught in conventional medicine,
and because I lived with her twenty four to seven,

(03:11):
I saw that it was not working, it was not
helping her. So luckily I listened to this patient who
gave me a cassette take. I listened to this guy
talking about biodonical hormones and progesterone and all this, and
I like, what the heck. I listened to it, and
it really changed my life. So I have to give
thanks to that patient. I wish I knew who she was.

(03:32):
I would take her out to dinner and send her
on a trip or whatever, because she was the beginning
of that change. And so from that, I started to
realize that I didn't learn everything that I needed to
know in medical school. And they always say that, hey,
whatever you learned in medical school is going to be
obsolete in ten years. Well, I've been out of medical
school for thirty years, so it's definitely obsolete. So from

(03:54):
there I got interested in other things that I didn't learn,
you know. And the number one thing is I started
speaking at these conferences about my book about hormones, and
I was listening to other speakers talk about stress. So
I heard that seventy five to ninety percent of all
visits to primary care physicians are for stress related complaints

(04:15):
of disorders. So I'm like, hey, if I come from
the viewpoint that this person is probably dealing with some
stressful issue, I'm going to rewrite seventy five to ninety
percent of the time, and in this and in this environment,
it's probably ninety nine percent of the time it's due
to stress. So I've tried to become an expert in
stress and wrote this book called the Stress Connection. So

(04:37):
we talked about that, and that's how I kind of
run my practices. I'm always looking for what stress caused
this problem. Well, now through meditation, I'm understanding that the
next book I need to write, or the next thing
I'm going to talk about is the stress disconnection, and
how you disconnect from stress is what we're going to
talk about today is through meditation. So so that's kind

(05:01):
of my story. And so you know I've evolved, like
you said, I've evolved. Now I will tell you that
the reason why I went to Egypt is because I
took this course and I want to give him credit
called the Reality Creator. And this is a young twenty
six twenty seven year old guy who is teaching me
about meditation and how you can create your reality. And

(05:23):
I have created my reality. And the number one thing
I had to get over is fear. And I'll tell
you I had. My number one fear was fear of water.
I didn't like to swim, I like to look at
the water, I didn't like to go in it. So
he said, you got to overcome that biggest fear. So
I took a scuba diving lesson and that kind of
got me to be fearless. And after that, I said,

(05:46):
I wanted to go to Egypt and I want to
understand spirituality because I'm a science but I'm a scientist,
but my dad was a minister, a Baptist minister, and
I've always wanted to understand spirituality in the form of science.
And there's something called cometic science that is the spirituality
science that the ancient Egyptians had, So that's really why

(06:09):
I went there. I want to understand this cometic spirituality,
that's what they called it, cometic spirituality. And from that
that's led me to this point. And I only went
to Egypt in December. This is April, so but I've
been on like a crazy search. My wife is getting
concerned about me because I hardly sleep. If I can

(06:31):
sleep four or five hours, I'm good. I wake up
at three or four in the morning, just waiting to
see what I can learn next. So she's like, you
got to get some sleep. You gotta get sleep. So
I actually got a good night's sleep last night. I'm
ready for this show this morning. So let's talk about meditation.

Speaker 3 (06:47):
Yes, you, I want to bring this up. You met
a gentleman when you're over in Egypt. Yeah, that have
you corresponded with him since you've gotten back.

Speaker 4 (06:57):
I wish I gave him my email and and he
said he had access to a phone, and I don't know,
you know how hard that is for him, but yeah,
he he kind of personified what cometic spirituality is about.
It's about balancing harmony and that leads to peace. Is

(07:18):
as simple as that. So our first book about hormones
was about balancing hormones. And my book about stress is
really about creating harmony because stress causes disharmony. Okay, So,
and that's what meditation is about, is to try and
get this disharmony back into harmony. So this guy had

(07:39):
lived in these caves and where there's no internet, there's
no CNN, there's no Fox News, there's no none of that.
They'd live in nature, and they live by the laws
of nature. And he is the personification of peace. And
because he's in balance with nature, and he's in harmony

(08:00):
with nature, and that's how everything in nature works. I'm
I'm I go out and look at my garden. Now,
you know that's nature there. It's in balance. They get sunshine,
they get rain, they die, they come back. It's just
you know, now I understand how these cycles work. That
these flowers, they they bloom and then they flourish, and

(08:23):
then they die and then they come back. That is
that is nature. We're all a part of nature. We're
all made up of energy in this quantum field. In
one of these other podcasts, I talked about that dream
I had about quantum physics, and that explains everything about spirituality,
about who we are, what we are in nature, and

(08:46):
that's what we're gonna talk about in my podcast Asians Blueprint.
We're gonna really try and talk about quantum physics because
the athless blueprint is the quantum field. The quantum field
has all possibilities. You can create your blueprint, and that's
been around since for eternity. This quantum field has all possibilities,

(09:07):
and the ageless blueprint is that you can focus on
a certain outcome and the quantum field will provide the
blueprint to get you there, you know. So that's it's
kind of we think of it as you know, kind
of this new age stuff, but it's pure hard science
and and that's what you know. Again, I'm a doctor,

(09:27):
I'm a scientist, but I'm also have a lot of
spirituality in me because of how I was raised. And
when you when you marry those two, man, it is
so eye opening and free freeing. When you can marry
those two that I can scientifically say or believe in
spirituality and what it has to offer. So so that's

(09:50):
you know, that's it. If you get me started, it's
hard for me to stop. So if we're supposed to
talk about methog you know what.

Speaker 3 (09:56):
You know, we're going to talk about meditation today. But
is one of the things that you really talk about
a lot of people don't know what stress the health
issues it causes.

Speaker 4 (10:10):
Yeah, so you know, stress is anything that takes you
out of homeostasis or anything that takes you out of balance. Okay,
it can be your external environment, what you eat, what
you breathe, you know, you know, how you what kind
of activities you are involved in. But it's also internal. Okay,

(10:32):
if internally you are in disharmony, are you in stress?
You're worried about your job, You're worried about who's president
or who's not president, You're worried about you know, your
And that's why I'm saying it's ninety nine percent because
I have a patient who works for the CDC and
she is worried out of her mind and I had

(10:53):
to talk her down and I'm like, you're more than
the CDC. You have the skills that you have developed
that you don't have to be dependent upon who's president
and who's the government. It's all about how can you
change your focus. So my fourth step stress relief is
number one. If you can get rid of the stress,

(11:14):
whether it's what you're eating or what you're doing, or
your job or your marriage, or your relationship with your
friends or whatever. If you can get rid of that stress,
that's the number one remedy. The second one, the second
best thing is to change how you respond to the stress.
And that's where meditation is so important. I used to
tell that to Patience, but I really didn't give them

(11:36):
a clear pathway to change how they respond to the stress.
And meditation can do that because when you meditate, you
quiet your mind. You stop having those automatic thoughts, those
automatic thoughts about what happens if I lose my job,
what happens if my wife leaves me, what happens if

(11:57):
I and so you're trying to predict the future. You're
living in the past and you're predicting the future. So
nothing can change as long as you're living in the
past and predicting what might happen in the future. So
that's why they tell you to focus on your breath,
because breath by breath, if you focus on it, you
can't be thinking about your past and you can't be

(12:19):
predicting your future. Is what they call staying in the unknown.
And if you know your past and you think you
know your future, then nothing different can happen. Okay, So
most people are scared of the unknown, and that's why
nothing changes. But meditation takes you into the unknown. You're
not thinking about your past, you're not thinking about your future.

(12:40):
You're just thinking about your breath. And when you do that,
it slows your brain waves down. You stop thinking these
scattered thoughts. You start thinking organized thoughts. And then the
next step you go through is when your brain is
really calm, and that's when your conscious mind and your
subconscious mind can communicate, and then you can figure out

(13:02):
all of these unconscious programs that you've run all of
your life that has led you to where you are
right now. This is all about this reality creation. Is
that you can start to think different thoughts and that
will allow you to believe different things about your future.
And once you can coordinate your thoughts and your beliefs

(13:23):
and your feelings when they are focused on a certain outcome,
that outcome has to materialize. And that's all this quantum
physic stuff. What you think and what you believe creates
your world. Okay, if you think the world is dangerous,
you're going to live in fear. And fear is disorganized,

(13:46):
its stress. Okay, but if you think and believe and
the opposite of fear is love. And that's why I
live by the thirteenth chapter of First Corinthians. It talks
about love. Love is what creates good things. Fear creates chaos,
Love creates organization, It creates and that's where you can create.

(14:11):
Whatever you want is created from a focus of love.
So meditation quiets your mind. You just focus on your
breath minute by minute and are really breath by breath,
and that quiets your mind. When your mind is quiet,
you can take in different information to allow you to

(14:31):
think different things. Okay, but when you're living in fear,
you can't think different thoughts. You're only thinking about surviving
that moment. You can't think about what can I do
differently so that I can get out of this fearful,
stressful state. So that's what's so important about meditation, and
meditation has to be practiced. You can't do it once

(14:54):
and think everything is going to change. What I've learned
is that you have to live in a meditative state,
mean that you're living you know it is not living
with your eyes closed, and you know in this deep thought,
it means that you're always meditating on what you want
and not what is going on right now, this present moment,

(15:17):
Because in this present moment you may be in chaos.
But if you're always thinking about getting out of this stress,
are creating a more organized world, then as you constantly
think about that, it constructs the energy to create that.
It's called the mirror principle. If your world is chaotic,

(15:38):
it's because your internal world is chaotic. If your internal
world is calm, your external world will be calm. It
all starts from you and what you believe. And it's
hard to believe something different when you are fearful, because
all you're thinking about is surviving this fearful state. So

(16:00):
that's meditation in a nutshell. Okay, so let me tell you.
Let me tell you one other thing. People say, I'm
going to meditate and pray. Now, let me tell you
what prayer is. Prayer is not doing this getting on
your knees and saying God, please do this, God, please
do that. Prayer is actually what you feel in your heart.

(16:22):
With every heartbeat, you are sending out a signal an
energetic signal, and we know that because you've had an EKG,
so you know your heart creates electricity. Okay, when you
have electricity, you have an energetic field. So when the
Bible says pray without ceasing, it's really saying you need

(16:42):
to feel and believe what you want and what you're
praying for. Feel it right now with every heartbeat. You
need to feel what you want that will create what
you are desiring. So if you pray for five minutes
to say, please God, do this, but in your heart
every heartbeat, you're still living in fear. Nothing's gonna change. Wow,

(17:07):
nothing's gonna change. So you when it pray without ceasing,
it's like, how do you do that? I got to
stay on my knees and do this and and I
can't go to work. I can't. That's the only way
I can get what I desire. No, you are if
you have a feeling of love. Because when I say faith, hope,
and love are the greatest of theesus love, You've got

(17:28):
to have a feeling of love toward what you want, okay,
and you have to feel it with every heartbeat. This
is something called heart brain coherence and I'm gonna teach
that on Age's blueprint, your thoughts and your feelings have
to be coherent and that sends out a signal to
the quantum field to change the energy so that it

(17:53):
becomes what you want. And let me tell you, it's
taken me six months to understand this, Okay, So I
don't expect anybody to understand this in a six minute,
you know monologue that I'm having. But I'm going to
tell you this is what I learned in Egypt. When
they pray, they do this, okay, so they are at

(18:13):
their heart level and they have one hand out and
one hand here. What the ancient Egyptians we're trying to
tell us is that for them to have created that civilization,
they knew that the center of creation is from the heart.
And what they're doing is the heart is where you
send out feelings, you send out what you desire, and

(18:34):
also is the heart where you receive it. So if
I have a thought or feeling, or or I want
to create something or I want you to feel something,
I have to send it out through my heart. And
then the heart is also a receptive organ also, and
this is straight up physiology, biology, biochemistry, physics, all of

(18:58):
that can be explained now. But the ancient Egyptians, and
I'm going to tell you all these ancient wisdom, you know,
the Hindi, the Buddha, all that they understood that it's
not the brain, it's the heart that controls your reality.
And if you can send out a coherent message this

(19:19):
is what I want, and this is what I desire,
and and you know it's all in the Bible. Is
that he will give you your desires. You can do all
these And let me tell you, and I just wrote this,
I'm gonna have a podcast about this. Is that even
Jesus said I cannot do miracles in a place where

(19:42):
you don't believe. You had to believe. So you know
it's not about and this will be controversial, well I'm
not even gonna say it. It's about belief. If even
Jesus could not get anything done around a bunch of
bunch of people who didn't believe, then you can't do
it either, Okay. So that's why you got to get

(20:03):
rid of negative people and stressful people. You have to
get into a community where people believe. And that's what
I'm trying to build in Ageless blueprint, have a community
where people believe that they can be ageless, that this
ageless information is important. And I and a lot of
people are like me. You discount it if you can't

(20:24):
prove it, okay, But now science is actually proving it,
so you know, so hopefully more people will believe. And
the other thing they're saying is that the way you
change your world is that if you get enough people
to believe in peace and love and harmony, the world
will change. But all we get bombarded with is images

(20:48):
of fear. And when you are and fearful, you are
fearful of other people. So the Christians are afraid of
the Muslims. The Muslims are afraid of the Christians, the
Ukrainians are of the Because we live in a world
of fear, so we want to get rid of our fear.
So we try to get rid of the person we

(21:08):
think is causing our fear, okay, And that's all we see.
That's why you got to stop looking at the news.
You got to stop looking at all of that stuff,
and you've got to have your own belief. And if
enough people believe that this world can be peaceful and
full of love, and I don't want you to think
I'm some nineteen sixties hippie, even though I was born

(21:31):
in the sixties. But that's what it is all about.
The greatest of these is love. Okay, So anyway I
can talk about this.

Speaker 3 (21:41):
Hey, I got to get this sin. We got a
text about ten minutes ago from Misty in Savannah, Okay,
and she's two points. One is doctor Taylor, I am
becoming one of your biggest fans. Do you ever think
about the lives that you tech on your show? That's

(22:02):
her first question. And her second question is are there
different ways to meditate?

Speaker 4 (22:10):
Yes? Well, well this is I mean when I say
different ways to meditate, all of it is about quieting
the mind and quieting the brain waves. And I'm going
to tell you how. One of the ways that I
learned this is using this thing called muse. And I'm
a big component of this because you put it on
your head and you have a program and while you're meditating,

(22:34):
it's telling you it will feedback to you when you
are getting into a meditative state. It actually has bio.
It has biofeedback that when you hear the birds chirping,
you know that you are going from beta waves to
alpha waves you and you learn how to breathe and
to quiet your mind so that you get into that state.

(22:56):
And then once you get into that state, if you
keep going, you can get into thisato state, whereas a
state of hypnosis where you can actually take in information. And
that's when you know, you see these hypnotists. They get
you in a state and then they can tell you
you're a bird or whatever, and you'll start acting like
a bird or whatever. That's real. You know, that's real.
You don't have to act like But if you start

(23:18):
to put information in like I love my family, I
you know, you start to think these better thoughts, then
that reprograms you, all right. So it is a it
is a science. It is a skill that has to
be practiced. And I have gotten better and better. I
used to couldn't meditate for two minutes. Now I can

(23:38):
meditate for thirty minutes, you know, with a guided meditation.
So so, and there's all kinds of apps. I started
with this app called Declutter the Mind, and I did
this thirty day mindfulness course and that really helped me
because I'm telling you, when I first started, you know,
I'm I'm trying to sit there and not think about

(24:00):
anything and all this stuff, you know, And it was
as hard, and then as time went on, it became
easier and easier, and now it is one hundred percent.
It's like brushing my teeth. I gotta do it every day.
And I also try and live in a meditative state
all day long, where I'm always just talking about being
conscious of your unconscious actions. Because ninety five percent of

(24:23):
the things you do, you're doing it unconsciously. You don't
know why you're doing it. So meditation allows you to
see what you are, what your unconscious program is, and
allows you to start changing that program. So that's what's
important about it. So now what used to be unconscious
for me is different now. Unconsciously, I stay in a

(24:44):
meditative state. Okay, I'm always looking at what I'm doing
and saying, is that something that I desire to do?
Or is or I'm just doing it automatically. And that's
how I changed my relationship with my wife. I was
doing some unconscious things based on some past hurts that
we may have had over thirty eight years, and over
thirty eight years, you're going to have some hurts, you know.

(25:06):
So I started saying, hey, I'm going to consciously react
to my wife based on the present moment, not something
that happened over the last thirty eight years. And I
told you our relationship, my relationship with my wife has
never been better. Well after thirty eight years, usually like
why did I mean a woman and I'm sick of
this woman. I'm like, no, it's it's on the total

(25:30):
other way, because now I'm conscious and I'm always coming
from a baseline of love. Anything I say to her
has to be based in love, not in fear, not
in anger, not in resentment, not in guilt, not in obligation.
I felt like I did a lot of things for
her because I was obligated as a husband. No, now

(25:52):
I do it as well. And she knows the difference.
She always knew the difference. Okay, Jesus a psychiatrist. Jesus psychiatrist.
And she said, hey, I know if I cooked through that,
I was, and I was, I was attached to some outcome.
If I do this, she'll do that. If I do that,
she'll do No, it's just I do it because I
love her. I do it because I made a commitment

(26:14):
to her. I love her because we are attached emotionally, spiritually, everything.
And so I'm telling you, after thirty eight years, to
be more in love with your wife and your children
and your life. It's that's why I'm I'm like this
all the time because it has totally changed my outlook

(26:36):
on life.

Speaker 3 (26:37):
I know we're running late. I can't tell people how
they can reach you. And about your podcast, Yeah.

Speaker 4 (26:43):
I'm going to start having a podcast. I'm gonna stay
here because like I said, I'm loyal. But it's called
Ageless Blueprint. Hopefully it's going to start on the ninth
next Wednesday at nine o'clock. And I've been talking about
it and I just got to start doing it. I
gotta do what Nike said, just do it. So you're
going to get started. And the other one, I tell

(27:03):
you the best way, I would love for you to
join my school group www dot s k o O
L fort slash Ageless and that's where every day, almost
