- Fritzi Horstman interviews Michael Singer about his phenomenal books and perspective about becoming untethered, letting go and "making it nice in there."
Michael A. Singer is the author of #1 New York Times bestseller The Untethered Soul and New York Times bestsellers The Surrender Experiment and Living Untethered, which have been published worldwide. He had a deep inner awakening in 1971 while working on his doctorate in economics and went into seclusion to focus on yoga and meditation. In 1975, he founded Temple of the Universe, a now long-established yoga and meditation center where people of any religion or set of beliefs can come together to experience inner peace. He is also the creator of a leading-edge software package that transformed the medical practice management industry, and founding CEO of a billion dollar public company whose achievements are archived in the Smithsonian Institution. Along with his nearly five decades of spiritual teaching, Michael has made major contributions in the areas of business, education, healthcare, and environmental protection.

Thank you. 10 years in prison for betraying the ones I love. I'm not supposed to find happiness, but I have, I have friends and home. I let go of my past and those behaviors. They are not me today.
Makes me happy for you🎉🎉🎉🎉
I also had a genuine transformation from a scared, scarred, selfish and addicted a-hole to a simply peaceful life.
I found Singer when my fiancé died suddenly and traumatically - I was ready to end my own life when the algorithm on YT sent him my way.
I’m not in less pain and I still experience deep regret for who I used to be but facing these dark corners of my life has given me a capacity for joy and gratitude that was hidden from me.
...it's still all about you. Accepting that you likewise betrayed those who loved YOU.
Im so happy you found peace ❤
Beautiful!!!!
Thank you for this beautiful interview, well I should add that recently i be on an handling program on trading with coach spencer which has been paying off consistently surprisingly
interesting, because i also earn and still profit from this same professional with remarkable credentials
@@brenocavalcanti8930 i was referred to his services by my mother in law when i had issues at the office some months ago, which paid off and i had to switch to a long term plan with him
@@cage8330 due to his advice and expertise, I'm now financially secure

Fabulous interview. Thank you both, Fritzi Horstman and Michael Singer!
Love to you both ❤😂
I must have listened to this interview about 20 times so far.
I've loved Michael Singer's teachings after reading each book as it was published: Untethered Soul, Surrender Experiment, and Living Untethered.
I've been practicing the teachings from Living Untethered for months now since it came out. I saw probably every one of Michael's interviews and have been listening to his website recordings lately as well.
I followed Yogananda about 50 years also.
I'm delighted, Fritzi and Michael, to see you together in this video.
The common ground that you all have, working with prison inmates, is something we don't see every day.
Seven years ago, I was a student in an online meditation and study group of about 10 of us that included a prison inmate in Georgia. He'd been in a gang when he was young and shot and killed a another kid.
The study group held a weekly zoom meditation and discussion group where we heard engrossing stories about his life as a dharma and meditation teacher to fellow prisoners.
His perspective on life struck me profoundly: what it's like to be inside and possibly remain inside the rest of his life, his personal journey growing into a spiritual teacher, his difficulties of trusting in the universe from inside a place where you must watch your back.
His presence in our class opened my eyes and heart to his unforgettable predicament.
As I age, it seems miraculous that I could still be learning this much at this point.
I'm sure many others feel the same way. The past few years have been challenging for so many.
I have been searching, reading, learning, for many years, to understand how to be happy, more spiritual, a better person... The list goes on. Then, by chance, I listen to Michael on utube and BOOM!!!!. I finally Get it!. I am and will forever be grateful to him. Thank You, Thank You🙏💙💙💙
yes...
Just by chance you stumbled upon a person who is a gift to the world. His understanding is unsurpassed giving us a door to experience that will lead to genuine insight into the intimacy of Being….Alhamdulillah 🦅❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥🦅 🙏🌹🙏
Same here !!

Have you done his online course- AMAZINGLY AMAZING
Thank you so much ❤
thanks Fritzi , you are an amazing interviewer , you let the guest bring out their best. Michael singer is a 1 of 1 healer
Thank you so much!
@@compassioninaction. I thank you for your generous work . Watching two souls interact so beautifully uplifts ( liberates ) the listener.
I have loved him from the very beginning, he is such a gift for mankind. It is beyond Americal and amazing.... I thought you did a wonderful interview and ask the right questions and allowed him to just give his amazing gift of wisdom....❤❤❤❤❤❤ thank you so much for being such a great host and allowing him to speak and asking just the right questions.....❤❤❤❤❤
Deeply inspiring. Thank you!
So simple but most will think it is all WOO WOO. But it is fact. Thank you for this.
Relax and release-I practice it everyday and I gain energy and happiness and beauty. Thank you so much Michael A.Singer for showing me the way to makeShakti-energy flow again
Michael Singer is such a genuine soul and treasure. 9:14 great example of how it's not anything outside of ourselves that makes us happy, as he teaches.
11:23 ask yourself "why am I not okay?"
12:23 you will find that this is the answer
18:37 I can handle this and "I'm going to handle this because..."
16:25 we do this all the time. "I don't think I like what I thought you said." Basically bothering yourself over something you are not even sure you heard right. Then later you get to the point where you don't bother yourself over knowing you don't like what you know someone said. And eventually the like or preference goes away and you go with what he says elsewhere is the goal to be the only preference you have: I prefer things are the way that they are. It does not mean you don't do anything about it but you surrender to the fact that it is the way it is and do not endlessly bother yourself about it but simply ask yourself what can I do to make it better and if there is nothing for you to do, don't take others actions personally.
17:40 "Life's a pretty happening place." I like this and I don't think I've heard him say this before. In the context he presented in, it really hits home for me.
18:37 I can handle this and "I'm going to handle this because..." 19:02 which is better? & Don't take personally 20:01
22:58 this really works for me, it is amazing with enough time doing this. Start with the low hanging fruit he talks about like the person driving slow in front of you.
Love ❤️ watching this. So inspired by his teaching.
I am soooo happy you have been sent, of course in perfect synchronicity, but unexpected Mr Singer ❤ I asked sth. to our source, my father/mother like I call he/she, and he and she sent me "You" 😂😂 As always, I am not surprised because I am sooo used to his/her ways, but his/her way always makes me smile and feel his/her profound love and guidance. Dear host, thank you very much for making this meeting possible! ❤🔱🏵💜🌹
Thank you for this! Michael Singer is ❤.
Thank You Fritzi. Thank You Michael. This is an amazing interview. So beautiful.💖🙏🏻💖
Lovely. Well done !
Thank you Michael. ♥️
This is so beautiful ❤️
Dear Fritzi and Michael THANK YOU so much for doing this beautiful interview. Fritzi your vulnerability and Michael's deep compassion, wisdom and genius is so heartwarming and I really loved this interview. I have been struggling so much for the last few days and this is the first podcast of Michael's that I have listened to of his because Cheryl Richardson mentioned his book in an interview she did. I listened to that last night and thought I really want to know more and WOW my heart and consciousness has expanded in the best ways. I nearly didn't want to watch when I heard the mention of prison as I felt pain on thinking about what life is like for them and so glad I released my discomfort and watched on, You do great work 🙏 and I feel so healed and heard in the interview and most importantly I know that there is great living to be done for me releasing and surrendering to the present as I create both a wonderful past and future from it. Deeply grateful, thank you again.🙏❤❤❤🙏
sometimes there’s nothing else to say. namaste ❤️❤️❤️
Great interview - thank you 🙏
Trauma is way more than something that bothers you. I agree. Being Abused is trauma. Not the same as my tendencies.
Thank you so much 🤍
love this
What about people who suffered terrible abuse? He always uses really trivial examples of Sally didn’t say hello and never mentions things like chronic pain and such.
It's the same answer no matter the 'problem' ...
It is same path.the only difference would be harder and takes longer time to clear deeper trauma.once you believed and you committed, needs to be patient,it is just matter of time to get there and it will for sure.
Abuse needs to be stopped. Cannot expect people to be abused and just say it is my job to relax and be okay with it 🤣🤣🤣 of course in the ideal world all of us are well developed and strong, to stay intact against any attack but we know in reality that is not the case. It is a fantasy. 😂 in that world all of us are rich and abundant as well and babies need no carrying or feeding 🤣 but when abuse is over, and free of that cycle, it can be time to learn letting go and surrendering?
@@mindytan504 above writer said " who suffered terrible abuse"not "who is suffering terrible abuse"in which case what you say is correct. Two different things
I believe abuse is supposed to teach us forgiveness, it's extremely difficult but once you do it there seems to be a sense of relief, I thought I'd always find some things impossible to forgive and it chewed me up inside but I'm doing it day by day and I'm so relieved to let it go,they can't hurt me now but if I hold on I'm hurting myself and I'm done with being hurt,so I'm choosing not to be,I feel the emotions when I'm triggered and they hurt me no one else so I'm working on my triggers and things are way better 😊
"As I contemplate the day ahead and await the morning sun
Staring out through razor wire which seems to restrict my fun.
These bars that are on my window I know so very well
My life in living bondage from the depths of eternal hell.
By opening up my eyes, to my amazement what I see
This day is what I make of it, its truly up to me.
In gazing at the vastness of my great big prison yard
Perhaps I find a purpose and a meaning not too hard.
The seen is now upon me to start a brighter day
This idle time of prison life begins to melt away.
My days a little brighter as I watch the morning sky
To deny my newfound vision I'd be telling you a lie.
Perhaps I'm not in prison as bad as it did seem
There are no bars, there is no fence, it's nothing but a dream.
I'm breaking out of prison this prison in my mind,
I feel that I'm more thankful and more loving of mankind..."
I wrote this one morning while watching the sunrise over a prison(physical-mental) in north FL. It only Perhaps took 5-10 minutes to jot it down from a (moment in the now).
Have a blessed day and do the best with what you have in the moment to the best of your ability and leave the rest to the Universe. 🙏 namaste... Michael
What a beautiful poem, Michael. Can you give us permission to share it?!
Beautiful🥰
Of course, and thank you-Compassion in Action. You may share the poem with the Universe. To my understanding that's what we are here for, to experience (my perspective), the good, the bad, the ugly etc. From my personal experience - not sure I would enjoy the sunshine as much without the rain-?- I do have a few more similar like poems I've written during one of my so called physical incarceration s, perhaps I could share if you wish. One final thought from a smart individual. "A human being is a part of the whole, called by us Universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest - a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole nature in its beauty. Nobody is able to achieve this completely, but the striving for such achievement is in itself part of liberation, and a foundation for inner security ". Albert Einstein. Namaste 🙏 Michael...
When i get triggered and feel charged i go within and find the sensation. I watch it and allow it to do its thing. When i do this the supressed emotions are released. When i react outwardly then i strengthen the suppressed emotion just to have it try again.
I am now my solution…
in reading you can experience etc...
I love to listen to Michael but, but.
My experience is for every tought "I can handle it" it comming big resistence by many more torgets "NO you cant handle it"😢😢
For people in prison, the starting point is to help them understand reincarnation and karma ( cause and effect). And that imprisonment is a way to atone for our previous negative actions. Accepting our life as it unfolds, including all the dualities of life is following the pathless path.
Calling the mind "stupid" and making fun of people who have difficulty accepting reality by using a very demeaning tone of voice (at 31:31) is very shocking!
Where is the compassion here?
How about loving all of yourself, loving the little child who suffered and did the best she could with her circumstances? How about loving the mind that does its best given the level of stress hormones running through the body? The tender wounded part of us needs love, compassion, understanding, big loving hugs, gentleness, etc or the healing is just an illusion. Love is the only healer! Techniques can help but they are not what heals.
Releasing the repressed emotions of the past, stuck in the body, is the key to be free. But this release can only happen if we do it with Love.
Saying the mind is stupid is creating shame, and a war inside, even more so when we want to dominate this "stupid" mind with positive affirmations.
War does not heal, eventually it kills!
"I haven't come to teach you,
I have come to love you,,
Love will teach you"
Author: unknown
And using repeatedly the word ",garbage" to talk about what bothers people inside is really saying a lot about the lack of compassion for the humans.
My goodness...
He acts patronizing & condescending. Not compassionate. For compassionate healing you can listen to Tara Brach.
you are just as much of a master as lovely michail .. i mean it
20:30
BUT SOMETIMES YOU CAN'T HANDLE IT, DON'T SIT THERE TRYING TO CONVINCE YOURSELF YOU'RE RELAXED, GET AWAY!
I don't understand these techniques.
With lifetime of abuse of every kind from childhood to adulthood including being raped, i have to relax amd say, i love being raped and abused..
It is not the same as not enjoying the rain.
Raphael aurea Vidya " awakening"🙏🏽🤍👍✨
Every time I hear Michael talk, something in me awakens. The truth resonates so deep it speaks to all of my cells and higher consciousness.
I agree! When I get off track, I listen to some of his teaching and I come back to center and flow.
Thank you so much 🙏💖✨
What a phenomenal, life transformative interview. Thank you!
For real ❤. So many deep concepts, delivered so beautifully.
When we feel stressed, we may have a pretty good idea of what our most painful samskaras are.
Inner thorns become most painful because of resistance within ourselves.
For me, it was this attitude of the unfairness of life and how much energy I'd already expended trying to deal with it.
The sheer depth of my psychic pain prevented me from progressing beyond it.
My partner quit working at age 45 after he got laid off and was never able to work again.
25 years had gone by since then.
We both had experienced childhood trauma passed down from traumatized parents including depression and physical health issues.
The way our pattern would go was...
I would trigger my partner when I talked about my work stress and why wasn't he able to help out by working,
his angry reaction to my stress would trigger me, reminding me of my father belittling me as a child.
As a long-time meditator,
I began working with my inner thorns using Michael A. Singer's process just because he helped me understand how to do that where no one else had before.
I never understood how I was using distraction and repression to bury my anger and pain.
Instead of pushing my emotion away or acting out of frustration, I began to sit and observe my emotions without judgement (witness consciousness) numerous times.
I observed the discomfort, telling myself I can handle whatever discomfort it brings me.
I reminded myself to relax my bodily tension and trust that the emotions or thoughts would pass in their own time, and allowed it all to move through me without my intervention or manipulation.
I used this technique to work with...
. Facing my need for self-care, which must always come first.
I can back off from always having to obsessively be perfect in my work.
I can take time to jog or walk 15 minutes before, during and after work, prepare a healthy breakfast and lunch, prepare for sleep by not skipping mantra and meditation, journaling gratitude and what good came of my day (even if it was simply making my bed).
. Take a few deep breaths, observe my breath a couple of times between meals, thinking my mantra then as well, thinking kind thoughts, considering how I can help others.
. Wishing compassion and well-being for all and forgiveness toward all.
Thank you so much for this.
Thanks for sharing; beautiful.
What I cherish about his message is that he does not say “you’re great the way you are” instead he says “work on it every moment of every day because you’re worth it”.
Fritzi, you are so beautiful! How genuine, moving and authentic you shared from your heart and let Mickey know how much his work means to you. You are speaking for many of us. The quote you finished this conversation off with, is also the passage that always makes me cry. I have such tremendous respect, honor and love for Mickey and I feel like I am deeply connected to his soul. Thank you so much for this. Beautiful work. Greetings from Germany!❤
Thank you my friend.
Absolutely brilliant, transformative and much more!!!!! His clarity always amazes me. I have been using the tools and freeing myself more and more each day! Eternally grateful. ❤
THANK YOU & NAMASTE
And free tools at that...as it should be.
Throughout the video, you can tell the woman host is in a state of peace and relaxation when Dr. Michael Singer speaks.
The kingdom is within you. You are capable of doing this !!!
Thank you so much for this wonderful interview. Just beautiful ❤️
Gratefulness from Belgium🙏, what sir Singer says feels SO right, and SO simple, he is totally spot on, i'll listen to this a lot 'to come back' in myself in stead of worrying of all the problems i need to deal with.
Fritzi thank you so much for this beautiful presentation. Thank you for the work you do in prisons. 🥰😍😘
M Singer is absolute Master !
Thank you for the most common sense teaching I have ever listened to ! May God gives Him very very very long life , because humanity needs Him
I agree. We are uplifted in our humanity by teachers like Michael Singer. His sense of humor and insight to creating happiness are valuable to every one . I like the suggested mantra “I can handle this” no nonsense, practical reflections
Thanks for helping me along my journey, it's been so helpful and enlightening, and I'm understanding so much more of the awakening process, and how to live untethered.
A magnificent interview absolutely profoundly deep and spiritual...she asked all the right questions ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You are capable of achieving anything you set your mind to! Believe in yourself and all your dreams will come to fruition. Love and light to you all! 🦋🦋🦋
Hi . This is sooo good for the soul walking this world. Freeing and amazing feeling of letting go of the sticky stuff that u don't have to keep .many thanks wonderful talk
❤💚 Thank you for this precious gift. Michael has changed my life. He has created 100% improvement; by delivering such simple but powerful ideas. I was wondering is it a good idea is it wise, to purposefully place oneself in a place where they will be triggered with triggers from past trauma?
💚❤
I think if you can let go of your reactions to the little triggers, you can try the bigger triggers.
❤💚 so would you hang a picture of your ex spouse on your wall? To remind you to let go and release?!
That's a tough one 😂 right. 💚❤️
You don't need to place yourself anywhere...life will present situations to you that will trigger you and the stuff you already hold onto will let you know.."hey this is an opportunity to let go".
That's the true meaning of karma. X
@@jessicamaden707 see your ex spouse with compassion....as you see yourself with compassion...you 2 came together for the purpose of growth thank each other for that gift, release let go
'Anything' (in life) is only as tough as you choose to make it....that's the beauty of it, you even get to choose how much you suffer....until you surrender and let go..❤
Thank you for this interview. This is just what I wanted to here. I get it more now. I have read the first two books and this was so clear!!
Michael Singer is incredible ❤ and i can vouch for his teachings. Letting go and releasing your stored emotions is the best thing you can do for yourself, and the biggest thing you can gift yourself 🙌🏻
❤️❤️
Thank you both
This has helped me so much to dig deeper into Michael Singer's teachings. It was such a moving experience for me as well. When he explained how namaste was used in India I became so emotional right along with you. Thank you for putting this out there. I wish you love and light.
Love Mikey so enthusiastic and puts it all simply
I happened Michael Singer a few weeks ago. I can’t believe how he resonated with me, and how he is changing my life.
How did you come across him?
Seriously .. the ego dripping claptrap of embezzled eastern thought is so disgusting. But I guess his affectations with his sibilance of every "s" he can squeeze in and his "everywheres" makes him a true brilliant thought leader.
Meditation wisdom and company of spiritual master is like carrying umbrella to weather the storm !
Thank you for your surrender and service to others!
This was great, Invaluable thank you.
Thank you Michael and Fritzi! What a gift you give us! Thank you, Namaste!
Can’t wait to listen to this 🤗 I went to Florida Nov last year to visit Michael 🥹🫶
Namaste 🙏 such a beautiful greeting.
Love the work of Michael Singer. Thank you for this podcast 🙏
Yes it has helped me and Thank you for your tears .
Amazing interview 🙌
Thank you for this beautiful interview. I read Living Untethered 4 times now, I can't stop reading it
Recently, korean version is published.
I ’ve read, i am fully persuaded by his book...
He is Guru...😊
Namaste 🙏
You are a real wise man! Thanks so much. And also to you, Fritzi! Don’t know you , but having this man in your podcast talks about you
I love this man!
❤
🙏🏻🧘🏻♂☀🌳
When you watch the news you are made to think society is collapsing. But we see otherwise, the collective consciousness is evolving and rising. Dwarpa Yuga here we come!😮
❤🙏
Wow. This was my first time hearing your teachings Fritzi and my first time hearing Michael. This viewing for me came at the precise time I needed it. Thank you & Namaste to you and all…
Michael ("Mickey") is such a brilliant communicator, his teachings so on point, that whenever anyone hears them for the first time it is instantly the "precise time." Truth is truth and Mickey teaches the truth devoid of dogma and belief.
Que buena entrevista! Definitivamente las enseñanzas de Michael Singer me ayudan a cambiar la forma de ver el mundo completo.
A mi me cambio tanto mi forma de vivir que me dedique a hacer una grabación de su libro "La liberación del alma" en español!
Espero les pueda ayudar tanto como me ayudó a mi: ua-cam.com/video/CjaMG1JXveQ/v-deo.html
🙏 enjoyed this podcast enormously, been reading several comments, learning all the time I AM 🙏 and a warm hug for the lovely lady, if allowed ☺️
Thank You , amazing
Haha working in 😊 I like that (darn I exposed myself - I’m not supposed to like and don’t like) 😅
On a serious note - his way of transmitting this is very direct and clear. And he talks in a way that it gets accessible for most people. Very very good! Much appreciated and thanks for sharing this wonderful interview where both of you did a good job 🙏🏻
Wonderful discussion…so helpful!! Feel so blessed to have access to so many divine teachers from all over the world, I wish I had access to all of this when I was a kid…maybe the trajectory of my life would have been easier.

Thank you for this wonderful podcast
By the. Way? You look so pretty In pink.
If someone yells at me....I yell back. Don't just accept it. Nip it in the bud and tell them to stop yelling at you. Period.
lovvvvvvvvvvv it forget who you do not want on the outside.............. make it comfortable on the inside Mikayla
So beautiful. Thank you. This is very helpful.
I suggest this japanese book of stories named Nisshitsu. Its a wisdom powerbomb
I agree with everything: however he tends to minimize : some have experienced extreme extreme trauma ….
What about when my body is so chronically sick that I’m trapped in here
I just want to say that living untethered or awakening has been pretty scary. Not as nice as it sounds. Sometimes yes, most times no.
No longer I, but Christ who lives in me.
Sainthood? What about builders and warriors?
So some of us have had horrible experiences: how to let it go ….
