I've heard it said by a neurobiologist that there is very little physiological difference between anxiety and excitement, that is to say they look almost identical from a scan of your nervous system, which is to imply that much of the power is the story behind the stimulus that you tell yourself. Seemed to go very much with your point! Video was lovely and thought provoking! ☺️
ARGH! The Wagon! I didn't fall off completely. More like, lost my balance, fell overboard, grabbed onto a wheel & have been eating dust for the last 50 miles. This is a great & fantastic topic of "bad" vs. "good" stress. It reminds me of snake charmers who get struck. I'd be fear based dead on the spot, whereas the snake charmer survives and goes on to perform a 3 o'clock show!
Becky, I can resonate with "losing balance", lol! Let us know how it goes from here! We always love your light take on things =) I hadn't heard that about snake charmers. Fascinating!!
F@$% ....stress. let your faith be stronger than your fear. If I get too stressed, I know that I must smoke a big fat joint and go to the YMCA for a swim or a hike where I can listen to the trees talking to me. I love you trees.I love you God.
I actually forgot all about your super hero challenge per se, but have been working on its essence full time. At first, watching this video, I felt guilty. Then as I listened, I felt just fine knowing I was still 'on the wagon'!
My take on things such as stress, or the various energies we are immersed in, is having more to do with our/my choices that come along each day. We are basically parallel in this, since we both have this 'choice-based' take on our daily actions. The how's and whys of our choices being ever more having to do with creating a better response to situations and circumstances, rather than simply reacting to them based on old conditioning factors we might not even be aware are at work, OR, and THIS is where the true 'thingy' comes along, is the notion that "Hey, I want to break free of bad/ignorant/improper living (etc) " and be as open as possible to that subtly elusive answer/alternative that is TRYING to help us!!!
"It's all about perception". Yes, but it's also about not being stupid. As I progress towards the kind of body-mind-complex I perceive as being 'Enlightened', I'm gaining a vision of just what is really involved in true growth and self realization. My favorite 'model' is one of water, and this is of course not my idea at all, but one put out by countless Spiritual traditions world wide. In an unenlightened condition, we are as a container of muddy water. As we go through life, what 'water' are we continually putting in to replace outflow? Looked at this way, the 'choice' becomes pretty clear.
Soooo, I'm working on being a super hero simply by striving to make certain that the waters I am taking in are as reasonably clean as I can reasonably find. This in answer to your, others, and my own 'worries' about eating (Oh NO!) a twinkie! A little 'muddy water' will not kill us, but in due time our desires (hence choices) SHALL swing towards natural and healthy choices not because they are 'good' per se, but because we become increasingly aware that what we really and truly want with our hearts is simply being blocked by things we now understand to BE barriers to our true desire. We claim we want an Enlightened life, then why oh why do we dawdle along in ignorance mode when we can clearly see it for what it is now?
So yes, we are all super heroes as long as we continue to strive. Thank you once again for being on this path, and for being willing to continually strive and share your hard won knowledge and learnings with us all!
Much Respect! John, Ana, and Little Forest!
I’m slowly moving forward. Hand weights now most days and rowing machine most days. The stress of life is the spice of life, in small doses 😂
So good to hear! You're doing it! And yes -- it can definitely be spicy =)
I fear nothing and expect nothing so I’m free of stress. Perception is your reality, but it doesn’t make it the truth.
You look very handsome today.
Its sunny here and 8 degrees C this afternoon...the high. Its gorgeous here. Not as gorgeous as you though.
Sounds like amazing weather -- we're sunny as well, but just above 0 C. Always funny how it can be warmer in Canada, lol!!
Nice perspective! I ran a 30k yesterday and I reluctantly drank some Gatorade when my muscles started to rebel! The beverage looked severely toxic in the cup but I figured- Heck! I have a strong immune system! It probably won't kill me! 😅
30k! Wow, you never cease to come up with new amazing surprises of what you're capable of!!
Please tell your beautiful wife & gorgeous daughters I say hello! Lillee is most definitely going to want a hobby horse, and we love supporting family centered businesses!
I'm sending them love from you two, and they're all sending it back! EXCITED to meet you in person!!!
Good to see you again, my friend. I've had to create a new account, as my other one has been hijacked. Great topic for discussion... attitude and perspective are EVERYTHING. This is why gratitude is so important... it changes our attitudes and perspectives. If you haven't already heard of Dr. Joe Dispenza, I think you would really enjoy reading his work. He delves very deeply into what you just spoke about in the video. Through his research, he demonstrates that by changing our thoughts, we change our feelings, and then our actions follow... to the point of literally changing who we are. Some test subjects actually lengthened their telomeres... amazing discovery... Peace to you from Alaska, ~Tim
Tim, thank you for that recommendation. I've heard of him, but never read any of his stuff. Sounds like something I should check out! Peace back from Wisconsin! =)
The Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh recently lived to his mid 90s. Ive been to their monastaries and monks eat vegan, cheap grain + oil based meals with some vegetables. But people are healthy because their bodies and minds are completely free of stress. No, they dont look strong, but they are healthy because they dont run cortisol high all the time.
Freedom from stress. Even when we just feel it for a few moments when, say, we are deep in meditation, it's amazing.
Love this message my friend! So important how perception impacts one's experience of any situation! Much love to you all! ❤🙏
Yes! And love to you back, Gabriela! We're all sending hugs =)
I'd say this could be another correlation over causation thing. You point out that knowing people that eat really healthy that end up having a lot of health problems. It could be that people that have health problems look for ways to mitigate that and so get really into eating healthy, even if it's a subconscious thing. And for those caregivers, maybe they experience stress differently and so had a different response; not necessarily that their perspective informed their physiological response, but that their physiological response informed their perspective.
Yes -- always important to consider all angles as you're doing -- correlation and causation can be difficult to distinguish =)
Well aren't you smarty pants. Very well said.
yes i heard the majority say too much stress is bad for us that's why most people end up passing away i just didn't know that stress makes us aged faster i think it's ok for us to have some stress but i still think it's ok for us to have emotions express who we truly feel mad, sad, fear and happy i know i resonate with most that say death is an illusion yes this avatar body dies but our real true actual form soul energy lives on forever i do agree resonate most say we are not just the body avatar, we are not the labels we were told and we are not just male and female we are so much more we are beyond that we are powerful muli-dimenisonal beings immortal and eternal beings we can be reborn reincarnated another dimensions maybe another alternate universe there is a female version of me out there some where and i also wanna say there are some that do remember there past life's and some don't remember there past life's that's ok maybe in my past life i was another male or animal and another past life i was a female but i know in this lifetime i'm a male i want to talk about the gender wars because i really don't like the gender wars when most males and females fight with each other don't get along most think males are better than females and most think feamles are better than males superior ego mindset sure females avatar gave birth created both males and females genders and yes sure us males and females genders are difference but i disagree that most say that males and females are not equal becaue i think we should love treat both males and females equally and settle our differences as well just like most say that i do agree with that it's ok to be difference that's what makes us unique i think both males and females are equel to me i also think it's ok for both of us to have masculine side and feminine side energy we need balance of both mascline and feminine energy i think we should get along that's jusst my difference point of view perspective take and i also want to talk about i don't like that the majority of females cheat manipulate take advantage and controlling bossy with innocent males but don't get me wrong i'm not saying all females cheat i do think not all females cheat and controlling that don't accept us for who we are want us to be someone that we are not there are some of the miniroty of females that don't cheat manipulate and not controlling at all that do accept us for who we truly are allow us to be our real true self the samething goes with males there are some males that are bad and do cheat and controlling and some males that are good innocent and don't cheat at all not controlling most that are controlling bossy lie to themselves claim that they accept us for who we truly are being our real true self that lie just want us to be someone that we are not but there are only the miniroty of males and females that actually are telling the truth actually do accept love embrace us for who we truly are for being our real true actual self which i love because i don't wanna be someone that i'm not just to please impress others it won't make me happy at all i rather stay true to myself i love being my real true self because i wanna be free do whatever makes me happy i want it to let you know and also let your wife know what i also everything i said today too i want to know what you guys think
Shawn, you've outlined something important here -- it's often the resistance to emotions that causes us the greatest harm. In trying to label some as "bad" and others as "good", we then resist emotions that, almost always, defy resistance. Our life then becomes a battle.
@@ReWildUniversity you got a good point i do say what you just said sometimes but i forget to say that sometimes and sometimes i do bring it up thanks for reminding me because i do also say everything we say is a label and even good and bad too but the only thing i didn't know that you guys your life then becomes a battle well i do heard most have battles and some don't but thanks for sharing that with me and i know most say there is no right or wrong because it's a label and some do believe there is a good and bad everyone is entitled to there own difference perspective truths
I’m
