Tom is a badass...thank God for UA-cam and his channel. Lifechanging interviews. Tom does his homework on his guest and he always seems to ask the right questions, also practitioner of what he had learned!
He is amazing. Doing so much good to so many people.
“You are 24 hours bliss, that’s your birth right.” And those words will change my life forever.
Wow! harsh dandylion@@talksolot...actually she seems way better than most of these conmen\women trying to sell real estate on the astral plain. He approach matches the best practices that I have come across in the last 42 years.
Will or have?

Meditation is a vacation we take for our brain. I love this idea. Thoughts are not the enemy, effort is. This interview just strengthen my views towards meditation. Thank you for this Tom
I love this woman style of meditation and how she does it to get people better at life. I meditate with her every night and morning and I feel extremely well.
Following Emily's advice of exercising daily with twice daily meditation, it is working for me. I've built up to this over a month, with lovely reminders from Emily daily, having listened to many of her videos. I find her meditation so easy to follow, Emily's voice is soothing and so natural to listen to. ❤ I love how I feel following each mediatation and finding improvements in my everyday life. ❤❤ I am handling my daily life and relationships through a calmer lense, sleeping better and feeling joyful, gratitude, and a greater sense of fulfillment. 🧘♀️ So happy to have come to this with the recent changes happening in my life.
I don't know why this is... But I never know how to start meditation or who to listen to. But you somehow made me realise it really doesn't matter as long as whatever you're listening to is helping you. There is no right it wrong way.
Even before she says a a word, you can see the mindfulness and presence in her expression.
You have the kindest intros in the world. I really enjoy your style of interviewing
when Emily speaks I go into meditative State. she is a very amazing speaker.
Basically to conquer the world, one must first conquer himself...
Everything is connected and oneself is always the starting point.
Dude, that's deep.
..Or more like, .. one must first surrender to oneself. lol
Or rather, one must first realize that the outer world is a reflection of their inner world. Meaning, there's nothing at all to be conquered except for oneself.
True.
Wow, she is so on-point... she bridges the gap between Easterners' gurus and monks with modern neuroscience! Spiritually intelligent person!
Quiet the mind and the soul can speak 🙌
Discover Improve love this. Thank you.
Get the snake diet on!!!! That is a lifestyle change that will LITERALLY pull people out of the matrix
Caitlyn Jenners dead penis your comment went over my head 😦
What’s the process? Or do we have to buy the book and purchase her courses
I'm reading her book "Stress Less, Accomplish More" and have seen the masterclass about meditation in MindValley. I just loved this woman. Her passion is incredible. And she is a very funny gal. Thanks for this interview!
How’s your meditation?
How was the course on MindValley?
What did you think of the book? Does it actually teach you how to do her meditation? Would be grateful for any info. Thank you 🙏
Yes the book teaches you how to meditate she simplifies thousands of years worth of info and makes it easy to digest
How does she speaks flawlessly? I love it. Thank you Emily and Tom
from my experience meditation helps to center you, so you flow better with your thoughts and everything.
@@richardw3347 aha. Good point.Thanks man. I'm definitely going to form a habit
My family and I take yoga together, we meditate in yoga, and my kids say affirmations daily (one more than the other..ha ha ha). I meditate, visualize, and exercise daily...I will say this...when I started all of this daily...and kept it up...I found peace and stability in my life like never before. Truly, all that you ever need is already inside of you. By stripping away the stories, thoughts, feelings, and energies of negativity...your philosophy of life will change. You change the way you look at things...and those things in return change. Failures become blessings for the teacher they can bring. Fear can fade away and I actually fall asleep smiling. The kicker for me was one day I woke up and my mouth was sore and I knew I had been smiling in my sleep. When that it me, I was totally changed. Im no monk, Im not perfect, but I am in peace now. I went through hell to get there...but now...all I want to do is help others feel like I do!
P.S. I’m still buying the book and I am going to do into this method, I’m eager to step-up my game.
What she discribes about the benefits from mediation is 100% true. I experienced these states by myself
But how do you meditate can you tell me the exact process and when you do
@@prajwalsharma213
Shut down your phone, go to bed, put your pillow and cover away, put your arms beside your body, focus your attention on your breathing.if you caught yourself thinking, dont judge it, just be aware that you think and which emotion comes up.
Breath through your nose into your lower belly for 6 sec,hold it for 3, breath out for 6, hold for 3.
If you train this over a longer period of time you increase your time with out any thoughts. This is the time when you enter a higher consicousness cuz thoughts are very shallow. Through breathing you can bring body and mind to work as a unit again.
@@addictedtonothing23 What happens if I fall asleep? Serious question. I fall asleep really fast.
@@VishalRaoOnUA-cam
Your body and mind are not used to operate like this. Its better to fall asleep than to distract yourself from meditation.
Always choose the uncomfortable way if you want to benefit from meditation. Instead of thinking the same thoughts everyday, focus your attention only on your breathing, every single foot step instead of other people. This way you dont give your power away through distractions or negativity.
Everything new feels uncomfortable but you will benefit from it once you get used to it. It only takes one breath and your are back in flow.
Listen to this every morning or evening.
Teach your Brain To Manifest Your Dreams by dr. Dispenza.
@@addictedtonothing23 Thanks!
Wow 🤩 I’ve always loved Emily Fletcher. Because she is the person who turned me on to meditation 🧘 first years ago
With all the hustling and grinding, don't forget to pause for a moment. Sometimes, all you need is some fresh air and a clear mind. Your mind can get so cloudy with all of the things happening in just one day. Give yourself a favor and try to meditate for a few minutes. Almost everything will work back at its best again if you unplug it and let it rest for a bit... including you! As we hustle everyday, we do take a few minute breaks each day to help get back on track amidst all the chaos in our days as an entrepreneur. :D Let me just share with you guys. We own a cookie shop business in our college town. When we first started it, we were living in our car with very little direction, just a huge passion to be successful. We just graduated college as well. We started a cookie shop out of a local bagel shop in their off hours at night. We were living in our car in the parking lot of the shop at the time with my boyfriend, Bran. It was a crazy experience but it worked! We became a success! And how we have our first storefront location (a second launching soon!) We started it to fund a year long backpacking trip around the world and to be successful while living the life of our dreams.
Tom and Lisa you don't have any idea how you changed my life. Thank you so much .....I discovered this channel months ago and it is addictive
chalitti bayu I feel the same the way!! Thank you!!
💯 my kids know Tom and Lisa 😂
This channel has opened my mind up to so many things. I’m grateful for Tom. I was excited to see a video featuring Emily. She’s great.
I mean Tom, my man, THIS IS LITERALLY MY FAVOURITE CHANNEL ON YT AND EVERY SHOW IS JUST AAAMAZING!
I just can't get enough of the mind blowing ideas that I've heard on your shows! I'm so grateful for you! The quality of the people that you bring on the both shows is just WOOOOOW! You're a Godsend and I'm so so happy that I've found this GEM in the sea of crap that we get to see every single day! Keep it going and never stop, cause you're just made for this, and belive me when I say that YOU ARE MAKING AN IMPORTANT IMPACT on this world and showing people the way a show is supposed to be done !
Sending you and Lisa a warm hug from a cold and rainy Switzerland 🙋♀️🤗 Love you both! Xoxos
same here!
To the skeptics, if someone buys her course and can relatively quickly start making transformations in their life, isn't that worth it? I mean, you can argue how the same information is all free, It's on the internet, or it's just TM and I get that. But she's taken the time to package it all up, give it a unique implementation and help people out. I don't see a problem with that. There is value in it.
How much are you getting paid?
@@teijeiro74lol
I've been doing TM for 40 years...she seems good to me. A good outlook on the process which makes a change in a world full of wellness sharks and self-made gurus.
Honestly just starting with her book is enough, if you want to dive deeper then sure do the course but the book on audible is just as effective.
@@hernanschillaci2594 Mindvalley has a course with her called the M Word. I believe its $250 or $299 if you watch the masterclass. But yes I started with her book, and still do the meditation from it. It's life-changing. I recommend the book on audible.
Omg best interview on what meditation is. Thank you both so much for this!!!
She has such a pleasant voice. Its mind boggling 🖤🖤🖤

Thank you Tom for consistently uploading such insightful content. I started practicing the miracle morning routine and my days have turned more positive and productive. Meditation is the next step, will get there slowly but surely. Thank you!!
HI, could you please tell me the miracle morning routine?
@@sunriseinthennight you can check the episode with Hal Elrod for it. He explains it way better than I can. :)
Tom, cold shower talk, my mantra in that situation is Wow “I am so grateful to be a human being having an experience!” Literally, that is what I tell myself when that water hits and then I breathe and repeat and have the experience.
I love seeing Emily EVERYWHERE!!! Thank you Tom!!!
Emily to me is The best meditation teacher in the world!
This is the best description of my experience with transcendental meditation - Fletcher is super articulate on this.
This episode seems more engaging than most of the videos I've seen on your channel & I think it's because Tom is giving more personal feedback on the topics Emily is explaining. Don't get me wrong, I love the Impact format, how deeply Tom listens & usually comes in with a question for the guest only to clarify meaning or move them on to the next point in the discussion. I find that Tom relating his personal experiences regarding the guests' ideas makes the show feel warmer & more conversational.
Meditation might be the best thing I’ve ever done for myself! I think everyone should be taught to meditate in school
Her answer to the final question, chills! So true. Exercise allows you to get comfortable with pain and stop the ongoing suffering. 🙌👍
She is an angel! This is coming to me exactly when I need it. Thank you Tom and team for all of your amazing content.
Tom Bilyeu. You are a fantastic person , We appreciate you:)

"If you're meditating twice a day and exercising at least once a day, you're life is going to be amazing"
Hmmm, I'll try this and update in 6 months
Please do
Yes, please update us!
Did you start ? :)
How is it going so far?
The update!
OMG! When Emily says "I'm actually God pretending to be human" at 47:08 that was a true Aha! moment for me! That is so true! there is nothing limiting us from experiencing that what she says. literally every human is born with this capability to experience this.
One of the best guests on this show!
Tom , Willie the Idea Navigator.I study each day various subjects. Your show has become the one stop shop for the best Info Period. Delivery and
Content World Class.
I needed this and had even been asking the universe for answers to a few of the questions that were immediately answered in this interview. Thanks for another great episode Tom!! And thank you to your guest 🙏
Watching videos like this are really useful. At first, it seemed a barrier that i need to enrol in the Ziva course. This video is a really good way to give a preview. Then i actually did the meditation course. (And it really changed my life.) And this video is still useful because you ask questions that shed even more light on the topic. So i watched it again. Thanks Tom!~
She radiates joy.. so sympa and cool. Absolutely loved her!
I'm beginner of meditation, it's really something weirdly peaceful.
I'm like full of me now bcz I don't search anymore outside material things.....🙏🙏
ur cute
20 minutes in... the way that Tom explained his view of meditation was immaculate 💞💯✨💫 the way he broke it down in relationship with himself 👏
I absolutely love this lady. She speaks so much sense. I highly recommend her book which I am reading. 🙏🏻👏🏻❤️
Tom your videos has offered a lot of insight and motivation in order to achieve my goals. Thank you thank you
Oh boy Tom! Great interview with Emily. I am intrigued! What a perfect time in my life to add this to my weekly habit. Thank you both!
Neil Wood make it daily habit not weekly. Great app you might wanna try is “Headspace “
Emily's message to mediate MORE is really important. I am deeply passionate about meditation and practice daily 1-2 times a day. I agree that many people do some but not enough. I came up with saying for friends... i don't just meditate 1 day in a 100... i meditate a 100 days out of a 100!!
I found that gives people a good picture about how much they could step it up, and its a good affirmation for myself too. It still took 1-2 years before i really started getting deep benefits but now its amazing and i can relax so much more and stay very chilled almost all the time, Once you get that good and consistent, it really is life changing and amazing. Her point that by saving some sleep time you easily get back the 20-30mins investment daily is gold as well.
Wow what a beautiful concept. To live in a world where we meditate together before a holiday/everyday gathering
Tom, great video. Emily is an incredible woman. Great podcast. Thank you for all that you are doing. I'm a screenwriter and listen every morning to one of your videos, my writing output has tripled AND the anxiety I've struggled with my entire life is more under control. Thank you!!!!
This was an incredible episode. I love the concept of surrendering and really letting go and using it as a tool for the betterment of life. Gives you a great insight of what meditation can really do to the mind. Thanks Tom for another awesome powerful episode.
LOVE YOUR CHANNEL TOM. Thanks for all of your content and being a part of my journey!
Great interview. I'm inspired to be back to my meditation routine. She has got a Beautiful Personality. Is she in her 50s?
Amazing episode, the way she describes this is amazing. Such beautiful, contextual analogies for real people. Thanks a lot, much love!
Re: cold showers - I have tried and tried and tried more. What made the difference to me was to start on warm and gradually make the water colder ...it gets easier and easier with time . Now even if it is super cold, the "sting" only lasts a few seconds. after that it feels like warm water to me.
I am so diving further into Emily Fletcher's work now. Thank you both!
I literally just finished meditating and this new vid came to my phone today as it was created right after i fiinshed
you are chosen
Sounds like TM to me... and the whole thing around ‘accepting’ your thoughts and not getting anxious about them, while meditating, is not her idea... it’s TM 101.
As someone who is an advocate of meditation, I’m thrilled to see it as a topic on your show.
I’ve been enjoying Impact Theory since the beginning and start most days watching an episode.
Thanks to you and your team!
TM came from Hinduism and whatever else before that. No one really owns this stuff and it becomes problematic when people come along and try to own or identify their personalities with this stuff as if they invented it. None of this wisdom is really new under the sun. Unfortunately, western practice only goes far enough to say “we want to relieve your stress!” Instead of going to the root and depth of realizing who we really are. If you don’t know who you are or why you are here, and just going to the middle of the story like “let’s relieve stress!”, you don’t have the whole picture and you’ll always need the next technique or the next talk show guest to present you with the next business product to buy to make your life better. You will only truly live your life when you realize the truth of who you really are. Without that, no amount of “stress relief” techniques will satisfy you.
BV the Sage what are we and what are we here to do?
What is TM?
So true. This literally is just TM 101. What a clever woman to rebrand it as something she's invented
Great conversation, nailed the questions and the new setup/chairs are awesome. Never heard this perspective on surrender and how to apply it to meditation. Thank you for putting on this show Tom, watching some of your episodes has really helped give me practical action steps to take during some tough times.
I can't believe we are listening to this lady for free
there is something in smart, beautiful woman ins their 40's that really attract me man!!
She is beautiful!
Tell me about it .
Ikr, like teach me a lesson mami 😩😩😩
She's not in her 40s. You should actually listen to the interview and you may find her even more attractive.
@@TheWsteed she had a baby at 39, she's most certainly 40 by now.
@@mariaizaurralde Welp, looks like I too fell under the spell of another muse in her 40s, lol
Eckhart Tolle should be on show.
Sure, when he speak human ;)
not sure Tom show is about religion ...or hidden religion ;)
I’d love that
No, he sucks
Definitely
I learned about REALLY using my breathing for more than just oxygenation when I was about 20. Expanding both lung capacity and awareness was HUGELY IMPACTFUL on my quality of life.
Brains and beauty. Wonderful combination. Love the “tool of meditation”. I train daily not as identity but discipline and self fulfillment
Tom you're always the best at what you are doing here. Thank you so much. 😎 I'm a dude fan.
Get the snake diet guy on
Thank you for adding the bottom header showing the topics of the interview. Very Helpful
Omg! 2 of my favourite people hanging out! Emily, I watched this to inspire me to meditate so I can finish my uni assignment successfully! About to meditate now! ❤️❤️❤️
What she's describing *verbatim* is Transcendental Meditation.
Solid interview
Thanks Tom for bringing Emily Fletcher.
Meditation really transformed my life☺
This is such an enlightening and refreshing video. Thanks for this interview
Love how the time stamps are in description. Fkn genius.
Yeah, it's very useful. Haven't seen anyone else doing it.
Did anyone else feel calmer after watching this?
One of the most interesting information I've heard in quite a while ... I am definitely gonna buy her book.
This was one of my favorite episodes because I know I'm not getting the benefits out of meditation that I want because I keep "trying" to "do" meditation, rather than letting it happen. I bought the book!
Yup right on, letting go and taking time to simply be is liberating
Thank you for this video.
Between this, Joe Dispenza and Wim Hof I'm preparing my body and walking into a new reality.
James Lucero Just follows traditional yoga from India or Qigong practice from China. These modern teachers are teaching old concepts and exercises that have been around for thousands of years.
I think that it's the language and verbiage that this new school teachers use to get thought my mind blockage. As soon as I hear religion eseotheric words I start getting very defensive.
Tom, the former middle schooler within me is going to hate me for even saying this, but can you start giving us homework assignments and asking us to post our results in the comments? It would be SUPER rad if you asked us to try implementing something that you're considering for yourself, based on the guest you have on. The idea of trying things alongside you and the IT community sounds amazing!
I've had this same thought...what if we had a special worksheet for each episode?
"We're actually giving your body rest that is 5 times deeper than sleep."
Thank you, Emily, for that bold, unsubstantiated assertion. And thank you Tom, for not rigorously insisting that Emily substantiate that idiotic claim. And, for any bright challengers, no, dropping your metabolic rate, slowing your heart rate, and cooling your core temperature, does not warrant, explain, or justify the ludicrous 5-fold order of magnitude increase in rest that Emily claims.
Jake Mcgan it’s because it has been spoken about, tested and experienced by many people, so much that she feels relaxed enough to use that vocabulary. And Tom will have read so much about it that he too lets that slide. So that info is out there if you’d like to research, or train to experience yourself. You’ll need much less sleep and feel profoundly energised too, amongst many other benefits.
There's no doubting the benefits of meditation but rest that's *five times deeper than sleep?* Sources for this? Any studies whatsoever? This sounds like something which would encourage people to think meditation is an appropriate substitute for actual sleep.
@@empressah888 "Tested...by many people." Sources?
I googled this. Not a single study anywhere to substantiate this, none that I could see anyway. Articles generally supporting what has been known about meditation but nothing remotely close to it being *five times deeper than sleep*. Joe Rogan would be on that like stink on shit
the plastic caps at the end of shoe laces is the best analogy I've heard in the past few decades of living with a traumatic brain injury. missing the right hemisphere of my cerebral cortex leaves me with more of the left side of my brain. trying to do manual tasks with the nondominant hand ✋ is very draining and stressful on my mind body and spirit
#Believe :)

I love this show and I really admire Emily for such hard work to become medication teacher and the knowledge she gained and practiced. The only thing I wanted to correct her on is Nishkam Karma Yoga interpretation. Nishkam means "without desire" so basically it means all action should be taken without any desire and that is what karma yoga is...
Love emily fletcher! Read her book it's awesome!
Thank you
It's wonderful to promote meditation as part of a standard day for everyone. The way we speak about it though...
"Five times deeper"..? What's the measure?
"Nature wants us to be happy"..? Nature is not an entity that 'wants' anything for us; anthropomorphizing and romanticizing nature.
All answers are metaphors rather than concrete and specific answers directly about the biology that Tom is asking about.
You could stay that it is in the nature of living things to function optimally in an overall state of homeostasis.
And it would be marvelous to say it so accurately @@JohnnyArtPavlou ...in a way that you could build intelligent conclusions from.
Valerie Ellis, don’t aks me, I’m just a palooka. I’m just watching it now so I’m trying to figure out what she’s on about. A distinction between mindfulness and meditation is interesting. 🙏😇
@@JohnnyArtPavlou you're too modest.
Valerie Ellis, on the upside, men of modest means have learned to be creative in their compensations.
Check out, Kyle Cease (plenty of videos on UA-cam). He’s even more fuzzy in his science, but he brings a reassuring warmth to his fuzziness. His angle, sit for a good long time and listen to your heart. 🥴There, I said it! 🤣😂😇
This interview is amazing! Amazing guest! Amazing host! Thank you for an incredible quality content.
This was soooo enlightening. I want to learn how to mediditate like that. How did I only find this today? How?? Thank you for this interview.

These things are so underrated and can truly change your life...
AMAZING interview!!! Thank you both Tom and Emily! I will buy the book, follow on social media, etc. I can't wait to try meditation again!
I’m heading to Bali for 10 days this May with my girlfriend. I am planning on doing a bunch of yoga and meditation on this vacation to truly relax and enjoy it!
Great stuff, need to start maditation.
Thank you! I took so much from this talk. Life changing!!!
Excellent interview, I enjoyed watching! Thank you for sharing! Blessings!
Emily Fletcher thank you and i love you, you have opened up my eyes, please watch Planet of the Humans
By your channel you are really giving a clearity to questions of our mind...i wish one day you would call to sadhguru on your channel because i have noted that all the people who have got insightfulness and happiness, are all related to yoga and i think he is the right person to talk about for futher steps in life to achieve enjoy the more wisdom of life
She is definitely worth learning from!!!
Thank you for your work and doing these interviews! "Love Yourself Like Your Life Depends On It" by Kamal Ravikant is an excellent book and released me into my meditation practice. He also frees you from the "work" of meditation and not being worried about "mind wanderings"! Your work is appreciated Tom and Impact Theory Team!!
Excellent content, excellent interview and badass shoes Emily! Thanks Tom and IT crew!
It’s wild that in 2019 we are questioning the validity and impact of meditation in any of its forms. It’s the “woo woo “ mindset that gets most of us in trouble because we’d rather take a drug or be forced externally to make changes in our lives.
misterbobdobalina and there are ppl in the comments also hating it because she talks about climate change too🤦🏻♀️😂
