  are
• 2:02
  getting

  feeling

  and
• 2:05
  feeling
• 2:06
  emotionally

  was
• 2:18
  pretty
• 2:18
  separated

  and
• 2:20
  social
• 2:20
  media
• 2:20
  just
• 2:20
  continued
• 2:21
  to
• 2:21
  separate
• 2:22
  people
• 2:22
  from
• 2:22
  one
• 2:24
  creating
• 2:24
  almost
• 2:25
  this
• 2:27
  self
• 2:27
  centered
• 2:28
  point
• 2:28
  of
• 2:28
  view
• 2:28
  for
• 2:29
  people
• 2:29
  as
• 2:30
  you
• 2:30
  become

  taking

  care

  of

  yourself
• 2:37
  is
• 2:37
  very
• 2:37
  important
• 2:38
  but
• 2:39
  like
• 2:39
  it
• 2:39
  can
• 2:40
  lead
• 2:40
  to
• 2:41
  narcissistic
• 2:42
  behavior
• 2:42
  where
• 2:42
  you

  you
• 2:43
  are
• 2:43
  the
• 2:44
  most
• 2:44
  important
• 2:45
  when

  when

  we
• 3:11
  join
• 3:11
  for
• 3:12
  club
• 3:13
  personally
• 3:14
  like
• 3:14
  I'm
• 3:14
  usually
• 3:15
  off
• 3:15
  my
• 3:15
  phone
• 3:15
  for
• 3:16
  I'd
• 3:16
  say
• 3:16
  a
• 3:16
  good
• 3:17
  percentage
• 3:17
  of
• 3:17
  it.
• 3:17
  I
• 3:18
  do.
• 3:18
  I
• 3:18
  mean
• 3:18
  we
• 3:19
  all
• 3:19
  have
• 3:19
  the
• 3:19
  habit
• 3:20
  of
• 3:20
  kind
• 3:20
  of
• 3:21
  checking
• 3:21
  your
• 3:21
  phone
• 3:21
  also
• 3:22
  just
• 3:22
  you
• 3:22
  know,
• 3:23
  having
• 3:23
  to,
• 3:24
  you
• 3:24
  know,
• 3:24
  if
• 3:24
  you're
• 3:25
  letting
• 3:25
  people
• 3:25
  know
• 3:25
  where
• 3:25
  you
• 3:26
  are,
• 3:26
  et
• 3:26
  cetera.
• 3:27
  But
• 3:27
  I've
• 3:27
  noticed
• 3:28
  in
• 3:28
  our
• 3:29
  last
• 3:29
  few
• 3:29
  meetings,
• 3:30
  I.
• 3:31
  I
• 3:31
  don't
• 3:31
  find
• 3:32
  myself
• 3:32
  on
• 3:32
  my
• 3:32
  phone.
• 3:33
  I
• 3:33
  find
• 3:33
  myself
• 3:34
  engaged
• 3:34
  because
• 3:35
  we're
• 3:35
  actually
• 3:36
  having
• 3:36
  deep
• 3:37
  conversations
• 3:37
  as
• 3:38
  opposed
• 3:38
  to
• 3:38
  maybe
• 3:39
  your,
• 3:40
  you
• 3:40
  know,
• 3:41
  run
• 3:41
  of
• 3:41
  the
• 3:41
  mill
• 3:41
  conversations
• 3:42
  you
• 3:42
  might
• 3:42
  have
• 3:42
  with
• 3:42
  your
• 3:43
  friends,
• 3:43
  where
• 3:43
  you're
• 3:43
  just
• 3:44
  kind
• 3:44
  of
• 3:45
  checking
• 3:45
  in
• 3:45
  on
• 3:46
  each
• 3:46
  other,
• 3:46
  which
• 3:46
  is
• 3:47
  like,
• 3:47
  really
• 3:47
  casual.
• 3:48
  But
• 3:48
  since
• 3:48
  we're
• 3:48
  engaging
• 3:49
  on
• 3:49
  this,
• 3:49
  like,
• 3:50
  deeper
• 3:50
  level
• 3:51
  conversation,
• 3:53
  it's
• 3:53
  more
• 3:53
  engaging,
• 3:54
  so
• 3:54
  I'm
• 3:54
  not
• 3:54
  gonna
• 3:55
  want
• 3:55
  it.
• 3:55
  Like,
• 3:55
  I
• 3:55
  tend
• 3:55
  to
• 3:56
  check
• 3:56
  my
• 3:56
  phone
• 3:56
  when
• 3:56
  I'm
• 3:57
  bored,
• 3:57
  and
• 3:59
  I
• 3:59
  don't
• 3:59
  get
• 3:59
  as
• 4:00
  bored
• 4:00
  when
• 4:00
  I'm
• 4:00
  actually
• 4:01
  in
• 4:01
  deeper
• 4:02
  conversations
• 4:02
  that
• 4:03
  are
• 4:03
  making
• 4:03
  you
• 4:03
  think.
• 4:04
  So
• 4:05
  I
• 4:05
  think
• 4:06
  the
• 4:06
  Philosophy
• 4:07
  club
• 4:07
  is
• 4:07
  definitely
• 4:07
  a
• 4:08
  great
• 4:08
  way
• 4:08
  to
• 4:08
  kind
• 4:09
  of
• 4:09
  have
• 4:09
  that,
• 4:09
  like,
• 4:10
  technological
• 4:10
  break.
• 4:11
  And
• 4:11
  also
• 4:12
  kind
• 4:12
  of
• 4:12
  speaking
• 4:13
  to
• 4:13
  what
• 4:13
  Colette
• 4:14
  was
• 4:14
  saying,
• 4:14
  I
• 4:15
  think
• 4:15
  there
• 4:15
  is
• 4:16
  such
• 4:17
  this
• 4:19
  desire
• 4:20
  need
• 4:20
  to
• 4:21
  post
• 4:21
  on
• 4:21
  social
• 4:22
  media
• 4:22
  because
• 4:23
  you
• 4:23
  see
• 4:23
  everyone
• 4:23
  doing
• 4:24
  it
• 4:24
  so.
• 4:25
  Right.
• 4:25
  You
• 4:25
  should.
• 4:27
  That
• 4:28
  every
• 4:28
  moment
• 4:29
  becomes
• 4:29
  a.
• 4:30
  How
• 4:30
  is
• 4:30
  this
• 4:30
  gonna
• 4:31
  look
• 4:31
  on
• 4:31
  social
• 4:32
  media
• 4:33
  really?
• 4:34
  Or
• 4:35
  how
• 4:35
  could
• 4:35
  it
• 4:35
  be?
• 4:36
  How
• 4:36
  could
• 4:36
  it
• 4:36
  look?
• 4:37
  How
• 4:37
  could
• 4:37
  I
• 4:37
  frame
• 4:37
  this
• 4:38
  rather
• 4:39
  than
• 4:39
  enjoying
• 4:40
  it?
• 4:40
  And
• 4:41
  I
• 4:42
  mean,
• 4:42
  I
• 4:42
  try
• 4:42
  to
• 4:42
  stay
• 4:43
  away
• 4:43
  from
• 4:43
  that.
• 4:43
  I
• 4:43
  try
• 4:43
  to.
• 4:44
  I'm
• 4:44
  not
• 4:44
  as
• 4:45
  active
• 4:45
  as
• 4:46
  on
• 4:46
  social
• 4:47
  media
• 4:47
  as
• 4:47
  I
• 4:48
  think
• 4:48
  a
• 4:48
  lot
• 4:48
  of
• 4:48
  my
• 4:49
  counterparts.
• 4:50
  Right.
• 4:50
  But
• 4:51
  there
• 4:51
  still
• 4:51
  can
• 4:52
  be
• 4:52
  a
• 4:52
  perception
• 4:53
  of,
• 4:53
  like,
• 4:54
  you
• 4:55
  know,
• 4:55
  am
• 4:55
  I
• 4:55
  enjoying
• 4:56
  this?
• 4:56
  Am
• 4:57
  I
• 4:57
  living
• 4:57
  in
• 4:57
  the
• 4:57
  moment,
• 4:57
  or
• 4:57
  am
• 4:58
  I
• 4:58
  taking
• 4:58
  pictures
• 4:58
  and
• 4:59
  posting
• 4:59
  and
• 4:59
  is
• 5:00
  that
• 5:00
  taking
• 5:01
  me
• 5:01
  out
• 5:01
  of
• 5:01
  the
• 5:01
  moment?
• 5:02
  Right,
• 5:03
  right.
• 5:04
  Yeah.
• 5:06
  Personally.
• 5:07
  So
• 5:07
  part
• 5:07
  of
• 5:07
  it's
• 5:08
  a
• 5:08
  little
• 5:08
  bit
• 5:08
  of
• 5:09
  an
• 5:09
  age
• 5:09
  gap
• 5:09
  thing.
• 5:09
  Some
• 5:09
  of
• 5:09
  it's
• 5:10
  a
• 5:10
  personality.
• 5:10
  So
• 5:10
  I
• 5:10
  just
• 5:11
  turned
• 5:11
  25,
• 5:12
  so,
• 5:12
  like,
• 5:12
  I
• 5:13
  still
• 5:13
  kind
• 5:13
  of
• 5:13
  remember
• 5:14
  a
• 5:14
  time
• 5:14
  before
• 5:14
  the
• 5:14
  Internet
• 5:15
  being
• 5:15
  as
• 5:15
  ubiquitous
• 5:16
  as
• 5:16
  it
• 5:16
  is.
• 5:16
  I
• 5:16
  was
• 5:17
  2,000,
• 5:18
  so.
• 5:18
  So
• 5:18
  I've
• 5:19
  never.
• 5:19
  I've
• 5:20
  never
• 5:20
  really
• 5:20
  been
• 5:20
  on
• 5:21
  social
• 5:21
  media
• 5:22
  in
• 5:22
  the
• 5:22
  sense
• 5:23
  that,
• 5:23
  like,
• 5:23
  I
• 5:23
  use
• 5:23
  YouTube,
• 5:24
  but,
• 5:24
  like,
• 5:24
  I
• 5:24
  don't
• 5:24
  use
• 5:24
  it
• 5:25
  to
• 5:25
  follow
• 5:25
  personalities.
• 5:26
  I've
• 5:26
  never
• 5:26
  followed
• 5:27
  the
• 5:27
  whole
• 5:27
  celebrity
• 5:27
  sphere.
• 5:29
  I've
• 5:30
  only
• 5:30
  made
• 5:30
  a
• 5:31
  snapshot
• 5:31
  and
• 5:31
  a
• 5:31
  tik
• 5:32
  tok
• 5:32
  because
• 5:32
  some
• 5:32
  people
• 5:32
  wanted
• 5:33
  to
• 5:33
  send
• 5:33
  me
• 5:33
  some
• 5:33
  things.
• 5:34
  And,
• 5:34
  like,
• 5:34
  I
• 5:34
  checked
• 5:34
  it
• 5:35
  like
• 5:35
  a
• 5:35
  couple
• 5:35
  of
• 5:35
  times
• 5:36
  ever,
• 5:37
  so
• 5:38
  I'm
• 5:38
  not.
• 5:38
  I
• 5:38
  haven't
• 5:38
  been
• 5:38
  that
• 5:39
  whole
• 5:39
  thing
• 5:40
  of.
• 5:40
  Of
• 5:40
  like,
• 5:41
  I
• 5:41
  need
• 5:41
  to,
• 5:41
  like,
• 5:42
  share
• 5:42
  stuff,
• 5:42
  I
• 5:43
  need
• 5:43
  to
• 5:43
  send
• 5:43
  stuff.
• 5:46
  As
• 5:46
  far
• 5:46
  as,
• 5:47
  like,
• 5:47
  our
• 5:47
  meetings
• 5:47
  go,
• 5:47
  like,
• 5:48
  I.
• 5:49
  I've
• 5:49
  only
• 5:50
  been
• 5:50
  on
• 5:50
  my
• 5:50
  phone
• 5:50
  to,
• 5:51
  like,
• 5:51
  if
• 5:51
  somebody
• 5:52
  directly
• 5:52
  messaged
• 5:52
  me.
• 5:53
  And
• 5:53
  I
• 5:53
  actually
• 5:53
  don't
• 5:53
  think
• 5:53
  that
• 5:54
  happened
• 5:54
  during
• 5:54
  meetings,
• 5:54
  but
• 5:54
  also
• 5:55
  just
• 5:55
  like,
• 5:55
  show
• 5:55
  stuff.
• 5:55
  Like
• 5:56
  when
• 5:56
  we
• 5:56
  were
• 5:57
  talking
• 5:57
  about
• 5:57
  emotions.
• 5:58
  Like,
• 5:58
  I
• 5:58
  showed
• 5:59
  you
• 5:59
  the
• 5:59
  pictures
• 6:00
  of.
• 6:00
  I
• 6:00
  play
• 6:00
  this
• 6:01
  game,
• 6:01
  Tiny
• 6:01
  Glade,
• 6:02
  which
• 6:02
  you
• 6:02
  just
• 6:02
  build
• 6:02
  cute
• 6:03
  little
• 6:03
  Villages.
• 6:03
  And
• 6:03
  it's
• 6:04
  like
• 6:04
  a
• 6:04
  perfect
• 6:04
  thing
• 6:04
  to
• 6:05
  just
• 6:05
  like
• 6:05
  calm
• 6:05
  my
• 6:05
  brain
• 6:06
  down
• 6:06
  before
• 6:06
  bed.
• 6:07
  Like.
• 6:07
  Like
• 6:08
  that.
• 6:08
  That's.
• 6:09
  That's
• 6:09
  about
• 6:09
  it.
• 6:09
  That
• 6:10
  I've
• 6:10
  used
• 6:10
  my
• 6:10
  phone
• 6:11
  for.
• 6:12
  Yeah,
• 6:13
  well.
• 6:14
  And
• 6:14
  your
• 6:14
  thoughts,
• 6:14
  Adam?
• 6:16
  It's
• 6:16
  very
• 6:16
  interesting.
• 6:17
  I'm
• 6:17
  really
• 6:17
  glad
• 6:17
  you
• 6:17
  guys
• 6:17
  are
• 6:18
  doing
• 6:18
  that
• 6:18
  work.
• 6:19
  The
• 6:20
  first
• 6:20
  thing
• 6:20
  that
• 6:20
  comes
• 6:20
  to
• 6:20
  mind
• 6:21
  when
• 6:21
  you
• 6:21
  were
• 6:21
  speaking
• 6:22
  about
• 6:23
  emotion,
• 6:23
  I
• 6:24
  don't
• 6:24
  know
• 6:24
  if
• 6:24
  you've
• 6:24
  come
• 6:24
  across
• 6:25
  this
• 6:25
  or
• 6:25
  not.
• 6:25
  I
• 6:25
  didn't
• 6:26
  have
• 6:26
  the
• 6:26
  pleasure
• 6:26
  to
• 6:26
  have
• 6:26
  you
• 6:27
  in
• 6:27
  my
• 6:27
  classes.
• 6:27
  But
• 6:28
  one
• 6:28
  thing
• 6:28
  that
• 6:28
  we
• 6:29
  focused
• 6:29
  on
• 6:29
  there
• 6:29
  was
• 6:30
  that
• 6:31
  the
• 6:31
  whole
• 6:31
  point
• 6:32
  of
• 6:32
  philosophy,
• 6:33
  and
• 6:33
  especially
• 6:34
  Eastern
• 6:34
  philosophy,
• 6:35
  is
• 6:35
  that
• 6:35
  you
• 6:35
  cultivate
• 6:36
  yourself
• 6:36
  and
• 6:36
  you
• 6:37
  understand
• 6:37
  your
• 6:37
  mind
• 6:38
  and.
• 6:38
  And
• 6:38
  you
• 6:38
  understand
• 6:39
  yourself
• 6:39
  at
• 6:40
  its
• 6:40
  highest
• 6:40
  level.
• 6:41
  So
• 6:42
  when
• 6:42
  you
• 6:42
  understand
• 6:42
  your
• 6:42
  mind
• 6:43
  and
• 6:43
  yourself
• 6:43
  at
• 6:44
  its
• 6:44
  highest
• 6:44
  level,
• 6:45
  you
• 6:45
  give
• 6:45
  yourself
• 6:46
  lots
• 6:46
  of
• 6:46
  space
• 6:47
  to
• 6:47
  be
• 6:47
  able
• 6:47
  to
• 6:48
  process
• 6:48
  emotions
• 6:49
  and
• 6:49
  see
• 6:50
  them
• 6:50
  at
• 6:50
  their
• 6:50
  highest
• 6:51
  level.
• 6:51
  So
• 6:51
  when
• 6:52
  you
• 6:52
  understand
• 6:52
  your
• 6:53
  true
• 6:53
  self,
• 6:53
  then
• 6:54
  you
• 6:54
  actually,
• 6:55
  we
• 6:55
  talk
• 6:55
  about
• 6:56
  often
• 6:56
  living
• 6:56
  conversation.
• 6:57
  You
• 6:58
  have
• 6:58
  a
• 6:58
  whole
• 6:58
  universe
• 6:59
  of
• 6:59
  time
• 6:59
  and
• 6:59
  space
• 6:59
  in
• 6:59
  your
• 7:00
  own
• 7:00
  mind.
• 7:01
  So
• 7:01
  these
• 7:01
  complex
• 7:02
  emotions
• 7:02
  can
• 7:02
  come
• 7:02
  across
• 7:03
  and
• 7:03
  you
• 7:04
  can
• 7:04
  see
• 7:04
  them
• 7:04
  without
• 7:05
  feeling
• 7:05
  very
• 7:05
  attached
• 7:06
  to
• 7:06
  them.
• 7:07
  You
• 7:07
  can.
• 7:07
  If
• 7:07
  you
• 7:08
  see
• 7:08
  the
• 7:08
  emotion
• 7:08
  of
• 7:09
  sadness
• 7:09
  come
• 7:09
  by,
• 7:10
  you
• 7:10
  can
• 7:10
  feel
• 7:11
  very
• 7:11
  comfortable,
• 7:11
  say,
• 7:12
  okay,
• 7:12
  should
• 7:13
  I
• 7:13
  be
• 7:13
  sad?
• 7:13
  Is
• 7:14
  this
• 7:14
  appropriate?
• 7:15
  And
• 7:15
  you
• 7:15
  go,
• 7:16
  excuse
• 7:16
  me.
• 7:16
  You
• 7:17
  could
• 7:17
  either
• 7:17
  watch
• 7:18
  it
• 7:18
  pass
• 7:18
  by
• 7:20
  and
• 7:20
  not.
• 7:20
  Not
• 7:20
  worry
• 7:21
  about
• 7:21
  it
• 7:21
  or
• 7:21
  fit
• 7:22
  state,
• 7:22
  okay,
• 7:23
  I
• 7:23
  should
• 7:23
  really
• 7:23
  feel
• 7:24
  sad.
• 7:24
  I'll
• 7:24
  lean
• 7:25
  into
• 7:25
  this,
• 7:25
  I'll
• 7:26
  cry,
• 7:26
  I'll
• 7:27
  mourn.
• 7:28
  And
• 7:28
  then.
• 7:28
  And
• 7:28
  then
• 7:29
  you
• 7:29
  feel
• 7:29
  like
• 7:29
  you
• 7:29
  really
• 7:29
  lived
• 7:30
  it,
• 7:30
  right?
• 7:31
  But
• 7:31
  when
• 7:32
  you're.
• 7:32
  When
• 7:32
  you're
• 7:33
  seeing
• 7:33
  an
• 7:33
  emotion
• 7:33
  pass
• 7:34
  by
• 7:34
  and
• 7:34
  you
• 7:34
  let
• 7:35
  it
• 7:35
  take
• 7:35
  over
• 7:35
  you,
• 7:36
  right?
• 7:37
  And
• 7:37
  you
• 7:37
  don't
• 7:37
  have
• 7:38
  any
• 7:38
  space
• 7:38
  or
• 7:38
  time
• 7:39
  or
• 7:39
  mental
• 7:39
  awareness
• 7:40
  or
• 7:40
  mindfulness
• 7:41
  as
• 7:41
  the
• 7:41
  emotion
• 7:42
  is
• 7:42
  coming,
• 7:42
  then
• 7:43
  you
• 7:43
  can
• 7:43
  get
• 7:44
  dragged
• 7:44
  into
• 7:45
  all
• 7:45
  sorts
• 7:45
  of
• 7:45
  things
• 7:45
  you
• 7:45
  didn't
• 7:46
  even
• 7:46
  choose
• 7:46
  to
• 7:46
  get
• 7:46
  dragged
• 7:47
  into.
• 7:48
  So
• 7:48
  talking
• 7:48
  about
• 7:49
  Daoist
• 7:49
  perspective,
• 7:50
  Zen,
• 7:50
  Buddhist
• 7:51
  perspective,
• 7:51
  then
• 7:52
  you
• 7:52
  cultivate
• 7:53
  your
• 7:53
  mind,
• 7:53
  you
• 7:54
  understand
• 7:54
  your
• 7:54
  deepest
• 7:55
  self
• 7:55
  to
• 7:55
  allow
• 7:56
  things
• 7:56
  like
• 7:56
  emotion
• 7:57
  to
• 7:57
  pass
• 7:57
  by.
• 7:58
  So
• 7:58
  that
• 7:59
  was
• 7:59
  very
• 7:59
  interesting
• 7:59
  to
• 7:59
  me.
• 7:59
  And.
• 8:00
  And
• 8:00
  I
• 8:01
  have
• 8:01
  more
• 8:01
  thoughts,
• 8:01
  but
• 8:02
  I
• 8:02
  don't
• 8:02
  want
• 8:02
  to
• 8:02
  bogart
• 8:03
  the
• 8:03
  whole
• 8:03
  conversation.
• 8:04
  Do
• 8:04
  you
• 8:05
  guys
• 8:05
  touch
• 8:05
  on
• 8:05
  anything
• 8:05
  like
• 8:06
  that
• 8:06
  when
• 8:06
  you're
• 8:06
  discussing?
• 8:07
  We
• 8:08
  did
• 8:08
  not
• 8:08
  really
• 8:09
  talk
• 8:09
  about
• 8:09
  that
• 8:10
  type
• 8:10
  of
• 8:10
  thing
• 8:11
  this
• 8:11
  time,
• 8:11
  but
• 8:11
  definitely
• 8:12
  last
• 8:13
  year
• 8:13
  when
• 8:13
  we
• 8:13
  had
• 8:13
  a
• 8:14
  similar
• 8:14
  conversation,
• 8:16
  I
• 8:16
  brought
• 8:16
  up
• 8:16
  the
• 8:17
  whole
• 8:17
  theory
• 8:18
  of,
• 8:18
  like,
• 8:19
  you
• 8:19
  should
• 8:20
  be
• 8:20
  attuned
• 8:21
  with
• 8:21
  your
• 8:21
  own
• 8:21
  emotions
• 8:22
  before
• 8:22
  engaging
• 8:22
  in
• 8:23
  relationships
• 8:23
  with
• 8:23
  other
• 8:24
  people.
• 8:24
  But
• 8:24
  be
• 8:25
  that
• 8:25
  friendships,
• 8:26
  romantic
• 8:27
  relationships,
• 8:27
  anything,
• 8:28
  pretty
• 8:28
  much,
• 8:29
  because
• 8:29
  it's
• 8:29
  not
• 8:29
  really
• 8:29
  going
• 8:30
  to
• 8:30
  be
• 8:30
  very
• 8:31
  successful.
• 8:31
  You
• 8:31
  might
• 8:32
  run
• 8:32
  it
• 8:32
  into
• 8:32
  the
• 8:33
  ground
• 8:33
  if
• 8:33
  you're
• 8:34
  not
• 8:35
  very
• 8:35
  sound
• 8:35
  yourself.
• 8:37
  Once
• 8:38
  you
• 8:38
  can
• 8:40
  Figure
• 8:40
  out
• 8:41
  how
• 8:41
  to
• 8:41
  best
• 8:42
  cultivate
• 8:43
  and
• 8:43
  manage
• 8:44
  your
• 8:44
  own
• 8:44
  emotions.
• 8:45
  Then
• 8:45
  you'll
• 8:45
  be
• 8:45
  able
• 8:45
  to
• 8:47
  work
• 8:47
  well
• 8:47
  with
• 8:48
  other
• 8:48
  people,
• 8:48
  and
• 8:49
  then
• 8:49
  you
• 8:49
  won't
• 8:50
  rely
• 8:50
  on
• 8:50
  them
• 8:51
  for
• 8:51
  as
• 8:51
  many
• 8:51
  things.
• 8:53
  Yeah,
• 8:55
  just
• 8:55
  that
• 8:55
  whole
• 8:55
  kind
• 8:56
  of
• 8:56
  deal.
• 8:56
  That's
• 8:56
  very
• 8:57
  good.
• 8:57
  Yeah.
• 8:57
  Have
• 8:58
  you
• 8:58
  found.
• 8:58
  That
• 8:58
  reminds
• 8:59
  me
• 8:59
  when
• 8:59
  you.
• 9:00
  So
• 9:00
  in
• 9:00
  Confucian
• 9:01
  philosophy,
• 9:01
  when
• 9:01
  you
• 9:02
  cultivate
• 9:02
  this.
• 9:02
  This
• 9:03
  mind,
• 9:03
  it's
• 9:04
  actually
• 9:04
  your
• 9:04
  humanity,
• 9:05
  but
• 9:05
  your
• 9:05
  humanity
• 9:06
  is
• 9:06
  your
• 9:06
  highest
• 9:07
  self.
• 9:08
  Your
• 9:08
  humanity
• 9:09
  from
• 9:09
  Confucian
• 9:10
  perspective
• 9:10
  is
• 9:10
  from
• 9:10
  heaven.
• 9:11
  Has
• 9:11
  all
• 9:11
  time
• 9:12
  and
• 9:12
  space,
• 9:12
  the
• 9:12
  whole
• 9:13
  entire
• 9:13
  cosmos
• 9:14
  come
• 9:14
  into
• 9:14
  yourself
• 9:15
  as
• 9:15
  a
• 9:15
  human
• 9:15
  being
• 9:15
  is
• 9:16
  your
• 9:16
  humanity.
• 9:17
  So
• 9:17
  when
• 9:17
  you
• 9:17
  have
• 9:17
  this
• 9:18
  humanity,
• 9:18
  you
• 9:18
  can
• 9:18
  understand
• 9:19
  yourself.
• 9:20
  Then
• 9:20
  you
• 9:20
  can
• 9:20
  be
• 9:21
  loyal
• 9:21
  to
• 9:21
  your
• 9:22
  highest
• 9:22
  self.
• 9:23
  You
• 9:23
  understand
• 9:23
  your
• 9:23
  deepest
• 9:24
  self,
• 9:24
  you
• 9:25
  understand
• 9:25
  your
• 9:25
  original
• 9:26
  self,
• 9:26
  your
• 9:26
  heavenly
• 9:27
  self
• 9:27
  from
• 9:27
  all
• 9:27
  time
• 9:28
  and
• 9:28
  space.
• 9:28
  Then
• 9:28
  you
• 9:29
  can
• 9:29
  deeply
• 9:29
  empathize
• 9:30
  with
• 9:30
  other
• 9:30
  people.
• 9:31
  So
• 9:31
  when
• 9:32
  you're
• 9:32
  describing,
• 9:32
  it
• 9:33
  feels
• 9:33
  like,
• 9:33
  okay,
• 9:34
  I
• 9:35
  should
• 9:35
  really
• 9:35
  focus
• 9:36
  on
• 9:36
  myself,
• 9:37
  become
• 9:37
  my
• 9:37
  best
• 9:37
  self.
• 9:38
  Then
• 9:38
  I
• 9:38
  could
• 9:38
  be
• 9:39
  my
• 9:39
  best
• 9:39
  self
• 9:39
  for
• 9:39
  other
• 9:39
  people.
• 9:40
  I
• 9:40
  could
• 9:40
  understand
• 9:41
  their
• 9:41
  best
• 9:41
  self
• 9:42
  too.
• 9:43
  And
• 9:43
  does
• 9:43
  that
• 9:44
  makes.
• 9:44
  That
• 9:44
  makes
• 9:44
  space
• 9:45
  for
• 9:45
  other
• 9:45
  people's
• 9:45
  best
• 9:46
  self
• 9:47
  by
• 9:48
  doing
• 9:48
  that?
• 9:48
  And
• 9:49
  I
• 9:49
  guess
• 9:49
  one
• 9:49
  of
• 9:49
  the
• 9:49
  things
• 9:51
  that
• 9:51
  I
• 9:51
  had
• 9:52
  learned
• 9:52
  in,
• 9:53
  with
• 9:54
  Zen
• 9:54
  Buddhism,
• 9:55
  in
• 9:55
  sitting
• 9:55
  Zazen,
• 9:56
  is
• 9:57
  in
• 9:57
  the
• 9:57
  meditative
• 9:58
  state
• 9:58
  just
• 9:59
  to
• 9:59
  kind
• 9:59
  of
• 9:59
  watch
• 9:59
  stuff
• 10:00
  go
• 10:00
  by.
• 10:01
  Oh,
• 10:01
  there's
• 10:02
  an
• 10:02
  emotion.
• 10:02
  Oh,
• 10:03
  And
• 10:03
  I
• 10:03
  often
• 10:03
  wondered,
• 10:04
  you
• 10:04
  know,
• 10:04
  sometimes,
• 10:06
  oh,
• 10:06
  wait,
• 10:06
  and
• 10:08
  a
• 10:08
  thought
• 10:09
  would
• 10:09
  come
• 10:09
  into
• 10:09
  my
• 10:09
  head
• 10:10
  or
• 10:10
  an
• 10:10
  emotion.
• 10:10
  And
• 10:11
  I
• 10:11
  said,
• 10:11
  well,
• 10:12
  whose
• 10:12
  emotions
• 10:12
  are
• 10:13
  those?
• 10:14
  Are
• 10:14
  they
• 10:14
  mine?
• 10:16
  And
• 10:17
  it's.
• 10:18
  It's
• 10:18
  part
• 10:18
  of
• 10:18
  the
• 10:18
  idea
• 10:19
  of
• 10:21
  cultivating
• 10:21
  a
• 10:21
  bit
• 10:22
  more
• 10:22
  choice,
• 10:22
  I
• 10:22
  guess
• 10:23
  I
• 10:23
  would
• 10:23
  say.
• 10:24
  Does
• 10:24
  that
• 10:24
  make
• 10:24
  sense?
• 10:24
  I
• 10:25
  may
• 10:25
  have
• 10:25
  seen
• 10:25
  it.
• 10:25
  Go
• 10:26
  ahead
• 10:26
  and.
• 10:26
  Yeah,
• 10:27
  so
• 10:27
  that
• 10:27
  if
• 10:27
  we
• 10:27
  can
• 10:28
  choose,
• 10:29
  then
• 10:29
  then
• 10:29
  we're
• 10:29
  not
• 10:31
  grabbed
• 10:32
  by
• 10:32
  them.
• 10:32
  And
• 10:32
  I
• 10:33
  think
• 10:33
  that's
• 10:33
  one
• 10:33
  of
• 10:33
  the
• 10:34
  things
• 10:34
  that's
• 10:36
  happening
• 10:36
  pretty
• 10:37
  prevalently
• 10:38
  in
• 10:38
  our
• 10:39
  social
• 10:39
  fabric
• 10:40
  right
• 10:40
  now
• 10:40
  about
• 10:41
  this
• 10:41
  idea
• 10:42
  about.
• 10:46
  I.
• 10:46
  I
• 10:46
  know
• 10:46
  I.
• 10:47
  Colette,
• 10:47
  you
• 10:48
  may
• 10:48
  remember
• 10:48
  this.
• 10:48
  This
• 10:49
  example
• 10:49
  that
• 10:49
  I
• 10:50
  offered
• 10:50
  in
• 10:51
  my
• 10:51
  classes
• 10:51
  with
• 10:51
  you
• 10:51
  guys
• 10:52
  where
• 10:52
  I
• 10:53
  would
• 10:53
  hand.
• 10:54
  Hand
• 10:54
  somebody
• 10:54
  a
• 10:55
  cup,
• 10:56
  right?
• 10:56
  Or
• 10:56
  hand
• 10:56
  somebody
• 10:57
  something.
• 10:57
  And
• 10:58
  I.
• 10:58
  And
• 10:59
  reach
• 10:59
  out
• 10:59
  to
• 11:00
  grab
• 11:00
  it.
• 11:00
  And
• 11:00
  I
• 11:00
  said,
• 11:01
  well,
• 11:01
  wait,
• 11:01
  did.
• 11:01
  Do
• 11:02
  you
• 11:02
  know
• 11:02
  what's
• 11:02
  in
• 11:02
  there?
• 11:04
  How
• 11:04
  do
• 11:04
  you
• 11:05
  don't
• 11:05
  know
• 11:05
  what's
• 11:05
  in
• 11:05
  there?
• 11:06
  Because
• 11:06
  people
• 11:06
  were,
• 11:07
  you
• 11:07
  know,
• 11:07
  on
• 11:08
  your
• 11:08
  phone,
• 11:08
  you're
• 11:08
  getting
• 11:08
  handed
• 11:09
  stuff
• 11:09
  all
• 11:09
  the
• 11:09
  time,
• 11:10
  and
• 11:11
  people
• 11:11
  naturally
• 11:13
  reach
• 11:13
  to
• 11:13
  take
• 11:14
  something
• 11:15
  that's
• 11:15
  being
• 11:15
  handed
• 11:15
  to
• 11:16
  them
• 11:16
  and
• 11:17
  you
• 11:17
  don't
• 11:17
  know
• 11:18
  what's
• 11:18
  in
• 11:18
  there.
• 11:18
  There
• 11:18
  might
• 11:19
  be
• 11:19
  some
• 11:19
  hooks
• 11:19
  in
• 11:19
  there.
• 11:20
  And
• 11:20
  part
• 11:20
  of
• 11:20
  it
• 11:21
  is
• 11:21
  that
• 11:21
  I've
• 11:21
  been
• 11:21
  seeing
• 11:22
  is
• 11:22
  a
• 11:23
  lot
• 11:23
  of
• 11:23
  people
• 11:23
  are
• 11:23
  being
• 11:23
  offered
• 11:24
  fear.
• 11:26
  Don't
• 11:26
  you
• 11:26
  want
• 11:26
  to
• 11:26
  be
• 11:26
  afraid?
• 11:27
  So
• 11:27
  you
• 11:27
  can
• 11:27
  belong
• 11:28
  with
• 11:28
  us.
• 11:28
  And
• 11:29
  I'm
• 11:29
  thinking
• 11:29
  to
• 11:29
  myself,
• 11:30
  geez,
• 11:31
  I
• 11:31
  think
• 11:31
  I'm
• 11:31
  gonna
• 11:32
  maybe
• 11:32
  take
• 11:32
  a
• 11:32
  pass
• 11:32
  on
• 11:33
  that,
• 11:34
  because
• 11:36
  with
• 11:36
  some
• 11:36
  of
• 11:36
  these
• 11:37
  limbic
• 11:37
  emotions
• 11:38
  like
• 11:38
  fear
• 11:38
  and,
• 11:39
  and,
• 11:39
  and
• 11:40
  loneliness,
• 11:40
  and
• 11:41
  they've
• 11:42
  shut
• 11:42
  down
• 11:42
  the
• 11:43
  cognitive
• 11:43
  faculty.
• 11:44
  So
• 11:44
  you
• 11:44
  can't
• 11:45
  think
• 11:45
  if
• 11:46
  you're
• 11:46
  afraid.
• 11:46
  You
• 11:46
  know,
• 11:47
  let's
• 11:47
  fight
• 11:47
  or
• 11:47
  flight.
• 11:48
  Right.
• 11:48
  But
• 11:49
  if
• 11:49
  I
• 11:49
  go,
• 11:49
  oh,
• 11:50
  I
• 11:50
  think
• 11:50
  I'm
• 11:50
  just
• 11:51
  gonna
• 11:51
  let
• 11:51
  that
• 11:51
  one
• 11:52
  go
• 11:52
  by,
• 11:52
  what
• 11:53
  an
• 11:53
  interesting
• 11:53
  thing
• 11:54
  that
• 11:54
  that
• 11:54
  was
• 11:55
  being
• 11:55
  offered.
• 11:56
  And
• 11:57
  why
• 11:58
  would
• 11:58
  they
• 11:58
  want
• 11:58
  me
• 11:58
  to
• 11:58
  be
• 11:59
  afraid?
• 12:00
  And
• 12:02
  are
• 12:02
  they
• 12:02
  feeling
• 12:03
  sort
• 12:03
  of
• 12:03
  insecure
• 12:03
  if
• 12:04
  they're
• 12:04
  trying
• 12:04
  to.
• 12:04
  To
• 12:05
  be
• 12:05
  arrogant
• 12:06
  or
• 12:06
  try
• 12:06
  to
• 12:07
  be
• 12:08
  in
• 12:08
  control
• 12:09
  or,
• 12:09
  you
• 12:10
  know,
• 12:10
  something
• 12:10
  like
• 12:10
  that?
• 12:11
  Yes.
• 12:11
  Colette,
• 12:12
  I
• 12:13
  think
• 12:13
  the
• 12:13
  most
• 12:13
  useful
• 12:14
  thing
• 12:14
  that
• 12:14
  you
• 12:15
  taught
• 12:15
  me
• 12:15
  when
• 12:15
  I
• 12:16
  was
• 12:16
  in

  your

  class
• 12:16
  was
• 12:16
  the,
• 12:17
  the
• 12:17
  grounding
• 12:18
  story
• 12:18
  with
• 12:18
  the
• 12:19
  tree.
• 12:19
  You
• 12:19
  know,
• 12:20
  you
• 12:20
  root
• 12:20
  yourself
• 12:20
  to
• 12:20
  the
• 12:21
  ground
• 12:21
  and
• 12:21
  then
• 12:21
  put
• 12:21
  it
• 12:21
  below,
• 12:22
  like,
• 12:22
  oh,
• 12:22
  that
• 12:23
  was
• 12:23
  just
• 12:23
  wonderful.
• 12:23
  I
• 12:23
  use
• 12:24
  that
• 12:24
  all
• 12:24
  the
• 12:24
  time.
• 12:24
  Oh,
• 12:25
  I'm
• 12:25
  so
• 12:25
  delighted.
• 12:26
  I've
• 12:26
  been
• 12:27
  teaching
• 12:27
  other
• 12:27
  people.
• 12:28
  Oh,
• 12:28
  yeah.
• 12:29
  Anthony,
• 12:30
  can
• 12:30
  you,
• 12:30
  can
• 12:30
  you
• 12:30
  introduce
• 12:31
  our
• 12:31
  listener
• 12:31
  to
• 12:31
  that
• 12:31
  concept?
• 12:33
  Yeah,
• 12:34
  it's
• 12:34
  one
• 12:35
  of
• 12:35
  the
• 12:35
  first
• 12:35
  things
• 12:36
  that
• 12:36
  I
• 12:36
  get
• 12:37
  people
• 12:37
  involved
• 12:37
  with
• 12:38
  is
• 12:38
  there's
• 12:39
  two
• 12:39
  different
• 12:39
  kinds
• 12:40
  of
• 12:40
  grounding.
• 12:41
  Because
• 12:42
  a
• 12:42
  lot
• 12:42
  of
• 12:42
  times
• 12:43
  when
• 12:44
  we're
• 12:44
  not
• 12:45
  grounded,
• 12:45
  we
• 12:46
  are
• 12:47
  subject
• 12:47
  to
• 12:47
  that
• 12:48
  illusion
• 12:48
  that
• 12:49
  we're
• 12:49
  this
• 12:50
  independent
• 12:50
  body.
• 12:51
  And
• 12:51
  then
• 12:51
  it
• 12:51
  just,
• 12:52
  you
• 12:52
  know,
• 12:52
  an
• 12:52
  emotional
• 12:53
  come
• 12:53
  through,
• 12:53
  or
• 12:54
  you
• 12:54
  go
• 12:54
  into
• 12:54
  a
• 12:54
  room
• 12:55
  that's
• 12:55
  really
• 12:56
  highly
• 12:56
  charged
• 12:57
  and,
• 12:57
  you
• 12:57
  know,
• 12:57
  whoa,
• 12:58

• 12:59

• 12:59
  handle
• 12:59
  it,
• 12:59
  you
• 13:00
  know.
• 13:01

  I'm
• 13:04
  going
• 13:04
  to

  do

  Adam

  Dietz.
• 14:33
  Welcome.
• 14:34
  We
• 14:34
  are
• 14:34
  joined
• 14:34
  today
• 14:35
  by
• 14:36
  the
• 14:36
  Sonoma
• 14:36
  State
• 14:37
  University
• 14:37
  Philosophy
• 14:38
  Club
• 14:38
  with
• 14:39
  Colette,
• 14:40
  who
• 14:40
  is
• 14:40
  the
• 14:40
  president
• 14:41
  and
• 14:41
  members
• 14:41
  Haley
• 14:42
  and
• 14:42
  Andrew.
• 14:43
  And
• 14:43
  before
• 14:43
  the
• 14:44
  break,
• 14:44
  I
• 14:44
  was
• 14:45
  talking
• 14:46
  about
• 14:46
  and
• 14:46
  Colette
• 14:47
  had
• 14:47
  mentioned
• 14:47
  before
• 14:47
  the
• 14:48
  break
• 14:48
  about
• 14:48
  the
• 14:48
  grounding
• 14:49
  exercise.
• 14:49
  And
• 14:50
  it's
• 14:50
  one
• 14:50
  of
• 14:50
  the
• 14:50
  things
• 14:50
  that
• 14:51
  I
• 14:51
  offer
• 14:51
  to
• 14:51
  all
• 14:51
  of
• 14:52
  my
• 14:52
  students
• 14:53
  about
• 14:55
  when
• 14:56
  you're
• 14:57
  and
• 14:57
  this
• 14:58
  really
• 14:58
  assists,
• 14:59
  particularly
• 14:59
  when
• 14:59
  you're
• 15:00
  in
• 15:00
  a
• 15:00
  situation
• 15:01
  where
• 15:01
  there's
• 15:02
  a
• 15:02
  power
• 15:02
  differential
• 15:03
  or
• 15:04
  somebody
• 15:04
  that's
• 15:04
  more
• 15:04
  powerful
• 15:05
  than
• 15:05
  you,
• 15:06
  either
• 15:06
  older
• 15:07
  or
• 15:07
  they,
• 15:07
  they
• 15:08
  are
• 15:09
  have
• 15:09
  more
• 15:11
  social
• 15:11
  power
• 15:11
  or
• 15:12
  more
• 15:12
  academic
• 15:13
  power
• 15:13
  or
• 15:13
  legal
• 15:13
  power
• 15:15
  to
• 15:15
  get
• 15:15
  grounded.
• 15:16
  And
• 15:16
  then
• 15:17
  you're
• 15:17
  not
• 15:17
  kind
• 15:17
  of
• 15:18
  being
• 15:18
  swept
• 15:18
  around
• 15:19
  by
• 15:21
  emotions
• 15:21
  that
• 15:21
  people
• 15:22
  would
• 15:22
  try
• 15:22
  to
• 15:23
  offer
• 15:23
  you.
• 15:24
  So
• 15:24
  one
• 15:24
  of
• 15:24
  the
• 15:24
  things
• 15:25
  is
• 15:25
  I
• 15:25
  have
• 15:25
  people
• 15:25
  sit
• 15:26
  quietly
• 15:26
  and
• 15:27
  then
• 15:27
  imagine
• 15:28
  this
• 15:28
  is
• 15:29
  the
• 15:29
  first
• 15:29
  one
• 15:29
  to
• 15:30
  grow
• 15:30
  roots
• 15:31
  out
• 15:31
  of
• 15:31
  the
• 15:32
  soles
• 15:32
  of
• 15:32
  your
• 15:33
  feet
• 15:33
  down
• 15:34
  into
• 15:34
  the
• 15:34
  ground,
• 15:35
  like
• 15:35
  maybe
• 15:35
  10ft.
• 15:36
  And
• 15:36
  then
• 15:37
  you're
• 15:37
  for
• 15:37
  you're
• 15:37
  up
• 15:37
  on
• 15:37
  a
• 15:38
  second
• 15:38
  floor
• 15:38
  just
• 15:39
  to
• 15:39
  have
• 15:39
  that
• 15:39
  imaginary
• 15:40
  root
• 15:41
  that
• 15:41
  comes
• 15:41
  out
• 15:42
  of
• 15:42
  the
• 15:42
  soles
• 15:42
  of
• 15:43
  your
• 15:43
  feet
• 15:43
  that
• 15:44
  goes
• 15:44
  down
• 15:44
  into
• 15:44
  the
• 15:44
  earth
• 15:45
  about
• 15:46
  10ft
• 15:47
  and
• 15:47
  then
• 15:48
  just
• 15:48
  to
• 15:48
  notice
• 15:49
  how
• 15:50
  quiet
• 15:50
  it
• 15:50
  is
• 15:51
  there
• 15:52
  down,
• 15:52
  up
• 15:53
  in,
• 15:53
  in
• 15:53
  the,
• 15:53
  in
• 15:54
  the
• 15:54
  earth.
• 15:54
  And
• 15:54
  then
• 15:55
  it's,
• 15:55
  you
• 15:55
  can
• 15:55
  be
• 15:56
  rooted
• 15:56
  into
• 15:56
  the
• 15:56
  earth.
• 15:59
  So,
• 16:00
  and
• 16:00
  let
• 16:00
  me
• 16:01
  how
• 16:01
  have
• 16:01
  you
• 16:01
  found
• 16:02
  that
• 16:02
  useful?
• 16:02
  Colette.
• 16:04
  Well,
• 16:05
  I
• 16:05
  am
• 16:06
  a
• 16:06
  person
• 16:06
  with
• 16:06
  lots
• 16:07
  of
• 16:07
  anxiety.
• 16:08
  And.
• 16:11
  So
• 16:11
  even
• 16:12
  when
• 16:12
  the
• 16:12
  outside
• 16:13
  world
• 16:13
  isn't
• 16:14
  loud,
• 16:14
  it's
• 16:15
  sometimes
• 16:15
  still
• 16:15
  loud
• 16:16
  in
• 16:16
  here
• 16:17
  in
• 16:17
  my
• 16:17
  head.
• 16:17
  And
• 16:18
  so
• 16:19
  I'll
• 16:20
  use
• 16:20
  the
• 16:20
  grounding
• 16:21
  method
• 16:21
  to
• 16:21
  make
• 16:22
  it
• 16:22
  a
• 16:22
  little
• 16:22
  quieter
• 16:23
  so
• 16:23
  I
• 16:23
  can
• 16:23
  think
• 16:24
  clearer
• 16:24
  about
• 16:24
  what
• 16:24
  I'm
• 16:25
  doing.
• 16:25
  Oh,
• 16:25
  that's
• 16:25
  great.
• 16:26
  And
• 16:27
  it's
• 16:27
  always
• 16:28
  and
• 16:29
  I,
• 16:29
  I've,
• 16:29
  I
• 16:29
  think
• 16:29
  I've
• 16:30
  asked
• 16:30
  you
• 16:30
  of
• 16:30
  this
• 16:30
  before.
• 16:31
  Are
• 16:31
  you,
• 16:32
  are
• 16:32
  you
• 16:32
  anxious
• 16:32
  about
• 16:33
  stuff
• 16:33
  that
• 16:33
  happened
• 16:34
  yesterday?
• 16:37
  I,
• 16:37
  I'm
• 16:37
  usually
• 16:38
  anxious
• 16:38
  about
• 16:38
  like
• 16:38
  all
• 16:39
  the
• 16:39
  things.
• 16:39
  So
• 16:39
  probably,
• 16:40
  yeah.
• 16:40
  Anxiety
• 16:41
  is
• 16:41
  really
• 16:42
  a
• 16:42
  function
• 16:42
  of
• 16:43
  stuff
• 16:43
  that
• 16:43
  happened
• 16:44
  in
• 16:44
  the
• 16:44
  past.
• 16:45
  So
• 16:45
  for
• 16:45
  example,
• 16:46
  you've
• 16:46
  taken
• 16:46
  a
• 16:46
  test
• 16:47
  already
• 16:47
  last
• 16:47
  semester.
• 16:48
  Sure.
• 16:49
  Yeah.
• 16:49
  Are
• 16:50
  you
• 16:50
  anxious
• 16:50
  about
• 16:50
  that?
• 16:51
  No.
• 16:52
  To
• 16:52
  the
• 16:53
  past.
• 16:53
  Right.
• 16:54
  Yeah.
• 16:54
  So
• 16:55
  the
• 16:55
  other
• 16:55
  grounding
• 16:56
  exercise
• 16:57
  that
• 16:57
  I
• 16:57
  do
• 16:57
  is
• 16:58
  what
• 16:58
  I'm
• 16:58
  calling
• 16:58
  Gaian
• 16:59
  grounding.
• 17:00
  And
• 17:00
  it
• 17:01
  is
• 17:01
  actually,
• 17:02
  I
• 17:02
  don't
• 17:02
  know
• 17:02
  if
• 17:02
  we
• 17:03
  want
• 17:03
  to
• 17:03
  take
• 17:03
  the
• 17:03
  time
• 17:03
  to
• 17:04
  do
• 17:04
  it
• 17:04
  on
• 17:04
  the
• 17:04
  air
• 17:05
  here,
• 17:06
  but
• 17:07
  it's
• 17:07
  locating
• 17:07
  that
• 17:08
  that
• 17:08
  part
• 17:09
  of
• 17:09
  you
• 17:09
  that
• 17:09
  is
• 17:10
  your
• 17:10
  awareness.
• 17:11
  And
• 17:12
  sometimes
• 17:12
  people.
• 17:13
  Aware.
• 17:13
  People's
• 17:14
  awareness
• 17:14
  is
• 17:14
  between
• 17:14
  their
• 17:15
  eyes,
• 17:15
  and
• 17:15
  sometimes
• 17:16
  people's
• 17:16
  awareness
• 17:17
  is
• 17:17
  in
• 17:18
  their
• 17:18
  chest
• 17:18
  at
• 17:18
  the
• 17:18
  level
• 17:19
  of
• 17:19
  the
• 17:19
  heart.
• 17:20
  But
• 17:20
  it's
• 17:20
  always
• 17:21
  to
• 17:21
  be
• 17:21
  able
• 17:22
  to
• 17:22
  move
• 17:22
  that
• 17:22
  awareness
• 17:23
  around
• 17:23
  in
• 17:24
  the
• 17:24
  body.
• 17:25
  And
• 17:25
  what
• 17:25
  we
• 17:26
  do,
• 17:26
  and
• 17:26
  I
• 17:26
  won't
• 17:27
  have
• 17:27
  you
• 17:27
  do
• 17:27
  it
• 17:27
  now,
• 17:27
  but
• 17:29
  what
• 17:29
  we
• 17:29
  do
• 17:30
  is
• 17:30
  to
• 17:30
  take
• 17:31
  that
• 17:31
  awareness
• 17:31
  and
• 17:31
  make
• 17:32
  it
• 17:32
  kind
• 17:32
  of
• 17:32
  like
• 17:32
  a
• 17:33
  ball,
• 17:33
  like
• 17:34
  the
• 17:34
  size
• 17:34
  of
• 17:34
  a
• 17:34
  softball
• 17:35
  or
• 17:35
  whatever,
• 17:36
  and
• 17:36
  then
• 17:36
  connect
• 17:37
  that
• 17:37
  awareness
• 17:38
  with
• 17:39
  the
• 17:39
  heart
• 17:39
  with
• 17:39
  a
• 17:40
  little
• 17:40
  imaginary
• 17:40
  silver
• 17:41
  thread.
• 17:42
  And
• 17:42
  then
• 17:42
  imagine
• 17:43
  that
• 17:44
  you
• 17:44
  can
• 17:44
  move
• 17:45
  your
• 17:45
  awareness
• 17:45
  around,
• 17:46
  like,
• 17:46
  to
• 17:46
  the
• 17:46
  top
• 17:47
  of
• 17:47
  your
• 17:47
  head
• 17:48
  or
• 17:48
  to
• 17:48
  your
• 17:48
  belly
• 17:49
  or
• 17:50
  to
• 17:51
  your
• 17:51
  feet
• 17:52
  or
• 17:53
  even
• 17:53
  outside
• 17:54
  the
• 17:54
  body.
• 17:54
  But
• 17:55
  it's
• 17:55
  always
• 17:55
  connected
• 17:56
  to
• 17:56
  the
• 17:56
  heart
• 17:56
  with
• 17:56
  a
• 17:57
  little
• 17:57
  silver
• 17:57
  thread.
• 17:57
  So
• 17:58
  you
• 17:58
  can
• 17:58
  always
• 17:58
  find
• 17:58
  your
• 17:58
  way
• 17:59
  back.
• 18:00
  And
• 18:00
  what
• 18:00
  we
• 18:00
  do
• 18:01
  is
• 18:01
  then
• 18:02
  we'll
• 18:03
  take
• 18:03
  that
• 18:04
  awareness
• 18:05
  that
• 18:05
  is
• 18:07
  connected
• 18:08
  to
• 18:08
  this,
• 18:08
  the
• 18:08
  silver,
• 18:09
  with
• 18:09
  a
• 18:09
  silver
• 18:10
  thread
• 18:10
  to
• 18:10
  the
• 18:10
  heart,
• 18:10
  and
• 18:11
  let
• 18:11
  it
• 18:11
  go
• 18:11
  down
• 18:12
  through
• 18:12
  the
• 18:12
  soles
• 18:12
  of
• 18:12
  the
• 18:13
  feet,
• 18:13
  down
• 18:13
  into
• 18:14
  the
• 18:14
  ground,
• 18:15
  and
• 18:16
  continue
• 18:16
  to
• 18:16
  go
• 18:16
  deeply
• 18:17
  into
• 18:17
  the
• 18:17
  ground
• 18:18
  for
• 18:19
  like,
• 18:20
  100
• 18:21
  miles,
• 18:21
  a
• 18:21
  thousand
• 18:22
  miles,
• 18:22
  2,000
• 18:22
  miles,
• 18:24
  right
• 18:24
  to
• 18:24
  the
• 18:24
  center
• 18:24
  of
• 18:25
  the
• 18:25
  earth.
• 18:25
  And
• 18:27
  once
• 18:27
  people
• 18:27
  get
• 18:28
  to
• 18:28
  that,
• 18:28
  I
• 18:28
  ask
• 18:28
  people
• 18:29
  to
• 18:29
  notice
• 18:29
  a
• 18:29
  greenish
• 18:30
  light,
• 18:30
  and
• 18:31
  they
• 18:31
  go
• 18:31
  right
• 18:31
  for
• 18:31
  the
• 18:32
  center
• 18:32
  of
• 18:32
  that.
• 18:32
  And
• 18:32
  in
• 18:33
  terms
• 18:33
  of
• 18:33
  archetypal
• 18:34
  psychology,
• 18:34
  this
• 18:34
  is
• 18:35
  known
• 18:35
  as
• 18:36
  Gaia,
• 18:37
  who
• 18:37
  is
• 18:37
  the
• 18:37
  feminine
• 18:39
  Greek
• 18:40
  goddess.
• 18:40
  It
• 18:40
  gives
• 18:41
  life
• 18:41
  to
• 18:41
  everything
• 18:42
  on
• 18:42
  Earth.
• 18:43
  And
• 18:43
  to
• 18:43
  connect
• 18:44
  that
• 18:44
  silver
• 18:44
  thread
• 18:45
  into
• 18:45
  Gaia
• 18:46
  and
• 18:46
  to
• 18:47
  allow
• 18:48
  that
• 18:48
  thread
• 18:49
  to
• 18:49
  remain
• 18:50
  attached
• 18:51
  so
• 18:51
  that
• 18:51
  ever
• 18:52
  after.
• 18:53
  And
• 18:53
  we
• 18:54
  run
• 18:54
  up
• 18:54
  and
• 18:54
  down
• 18:54
  the
• 18:54
  thread
• 18:55
  a
• 18:55
  few
• 18:55
  times,
• 18:56
  but
• 18:56
  ever
• 18:56
  after,
• 18:57
  then
• 18:57
  that
• 18:58
  connection
• 18:58
  is
• 18:59
  maintained.
• 19:00
  I've
• 19:00
  been
• 19:00
  doing
• 19:01
  this
• 19:01
  since,
• 19:01
  like,
• 19:02
  the
• 19:02
  first
• 19:02
  time
• 19:03
  I
• 19:03
  was
• 19:03
  introduced
• 19:03
  to
• 19:03
  it
• 19:03
  was
• 19:04
  1989.
• 19:05
  And
• 19:05
  it's
• 19:05
  been
• 19:06
  so
• 19:06
  useful
• 19:07
  because
• 19:07
  when
• 19:07
  I
• 19:07
  come
• 19:08
  into
• 19:08
  a
• 19:08
  situation
• 19:09
  that
• 19:09
  is
• 19:12
  uncertain,
• 19:13
  I'll
• 19:13
  do
• 19:13
  a
• 19:13
  guy
• 19:13
  in
• 19:14
  grounding.
• 19:14
  I
• 19:14
  actually
• 19:14
  do
• 19:15
  it
• 19:15
  every
• 19:15
  morning.
• 19:16
  And,
• 19:16
  like,
• 19:17
  Adam
• 19:17
  does
• 19:17
  Tai
• 19:17
  chi.
• 19:18
  And
• 19:18
  I'd
• 19:18
  be
• 19:18
  interested
• 19:18
  in
• 19:19
  hearing
• 19:19
  your
• 19:19
  experience
• 19:20
  about
• 19:21
  grounding
• 19:21
  with
• 19:21
  Tai
• 19:22
  Chi,
• 19:22
  Adam.
• 19:22
  But
• 19:23
  it
• 19:23
  really
• 19:23
  assists
• 19:24
  because
• 19:25
  I'm
• 19:25
  no
• 19:26
  longer
• 19:26
  this,
• 19:27
  you
• 19:27
  know,
• 19:28
  independent
• 19:29
  body
• 19:29
  that
• 19:29
  can
• 19:29
  be
• 19:29
  bowled
• 19:30
  over
• 19:30
  by
• 19:30
  a.
• 19:31
  A
• 19:31
  huge
• 19:31
  blast
• 19:32
  of
• 19:32
  emotion
• 19:32
  or
• 19:32
  something.
• 19:33
  Is
• 19:33
  that
• 19:33
  making
• 19:33
  sense,
• 19:34
  you
• 19:34
  guys?
• 19:35
  Yeah.
• 19:35
  Yeah.
• 19:38
  All
• 19:38
  right.
• 19:38
  It's
• 19:38
  coming
• 19:38
  through
• 19:39
  okay.
• 19:40
  Yeah.
• 19:40
  So
• 19:41
  in
• 19:42
  many
• 19:42
  senses,
• 19:42
  I
• 19:42
  understand
• 19:42
  what
• 19:43
  you
• 19:43
  mean.
• 19:44
  I
• 19:44
  mean,
• 19:44
  I'm.
• 19:44
  I
• 19:45
  have
• 19:45
  a
• 19:45
  very
• 19:45
  physicalist,
• 19:46
  materialist
• 19:47
  sort
• 19:47
  of
• 19:47
  worldview.
• 19:48
  So,
• 19:48
  like,
• 19:49
  most
• 19:49
  people's
• 19:50
  definition
• 19:50
  of
• 19:50
  spirituality
• 19:51
  or
• 19:51
  whatever,
• 19:51
  I
• 19:51
  don't
• 19:52
  believe
• 19:52
  in
• 19:52
  and
• 19:52
  stuff.
• 19:53
  However,
• 19:54
  that
• 19:54
  whole
• 19:55
  feeling,
• 19:55
  at
• 19:55
  least
• 19:55
  down
• 19:56
  to
• 19:56
  moving
• 19:56
  it
• 19:57
  around
• 19:57
  within
• 19:57
  the
• 19:57
  body,
• 19:57
  I
• 19:58
  do
• 19:58
  that
• 19:58
  for
• 19:58
  myself.
• 19:58
  Like,
• 19:59
  that
• 19:59
  is
• 19:59
  a
• 19:59
  real
• 19:59
  thing.
• 20:00
  And
• 20:00
  of
• 20:00
  course,
• 20:00
  like,
• 20:00
  I'm
• 20:01
  not,
• 20:01
  like,
• 20:02
  here
• 20:02
  to
• 20:02
  attack
• 20:02
  anything
• 20:03
  on,
• 20:03
  like,
• 20:03
  oh,
• 20:03
  it's
• 20:03
  not
• 20:03
  super.
• 20:04
  Because,
• 20:04
  like,
• 20:04
  as
• 20:04
  human
• 20:05
  beings,
• 20:05
  like,
• 20:05
  we're
• 20:05
  animals,
• 20:06
  you
• 20:06
  know,
• 20:06
  we
• 20:06
  evolved.
• 20:07
  So,
• 20:07
  like,
• 20:07
  we
• 20:08
  have
• 20:08
  certain
• 20:09
  things
• 20:09
  that
• 20:10
  have
• 20:10
  semantic
• 20:10
  meaning,
• 20:11
  that

  have
• 20:11
  emotional
• 20:11
  meaning
• 20:12
  that

  were

  useful.
• 20:12
  And,
• 20:13
  like,
• 20:13
  a
• 20:13
  lot
• 20:13
  of
• 20:13
  these
• 20:13
  things

  Actually,

  they're

  genuine,
• 20:21
  like,
• 20:21
  emotional
• 20:22
  things,
• 20:22
  and
• 20:22
  they're
• 20:23
  actually
• 20:23
  useful
• 20:23
  tools.
• 20:23
  And
• 20:24
  so,
• 20:24
  like,
• 20:24
  that
• 20:24
  specifically
• 20:25
  is
• 20:25
  a

  very

  I.
• 20:28
  I
• 20:28
  actually.
• 20:29
  I
• 20:29
  completely
• 20:29
  agree.
• 20:29
  Doesn't
• 20:30
  get
• 20:30
  talked
• 20:30
  enough
• 20:30
  about
• 20:31
  how
• 20:31
  you
• 20:31
  can,
• 20:31
  like,
• 20:33
  trust
• 20:33
  certain
• 20:33
  parts
• 20:33
  of
• 20:34
  your

  bodies,
• 20:34
  have.
• 20:35
  Has
• 20:35
  different
• 20:35
  instincts
• 20:36
  and
• 20:36
  stuff.
• 20:36
  Like,
• 20:37
  I'll
• 20:37
  trust
• 20:37
  my
• 20:38
  stomach
• 20:38
  or
• 20:38
  my
• 20:38
  heart
• 20:38
  or

  something.
• 20:39
  And,

  like,

  can.

  I

• 20:41
  like,

  something.
• 20:43
  And
• 20:43
  that's
• 20:44
  a
• 20:44
  very
• 20:44
  important
• 20:45
  skill,
• 20:46
  I
• 20:46
  would
• 20:46
  say
• 20:47
  that.
• 20:47
  That
• 20:47
  a

  lot

  people

  should

  is,

  being

  parts
• 20:50
  of
• 20:50
  your
• 20:50
  body

  you
• 20:52
  should

  And

  you

  Exactly.

  So,

  Talk

  bit
• 21:07
  about.
• 21:10
  How
• 21:10
  that's
• 21:10
  useful.
• 21:11
  Yeah,
• 21:13
  well,
• 21:15
  as
• 21:15
  far
• 21:15
  as,
• 21:16
  on
• 21:16
  one
• 21:16
  hand,
• 21:16
  you
• 21:17
  have
• 21:17
  the
• 21:17
  experience
• 21:17
  of
• 21:17
  meditation.
• 21:18
  And.
• 21:21
  Meditation
• 21:22
  can
• 21:22
  help
• 21:22
  you
• 21:23
  settle
• 21:24
  your
• 21:24
  mind,
• 21:25
  can
• 21:25
  help
• 21:25
  you
• 21:25
  settle
• 21:25
  your
• 21:26
  mind,
• 21:28
  help
• 21:28
  you
• 21:28
  have
• 21:29
  more
• 21:29
  space
• 21:29
  from
• 21:29
  emotions,
• 21:30
  help
• 21:30
  everything
• 21:30
  be
• 21:31
  a
• 21:31
  little
• 21:31
  more
• 21:31
  clear.
• 21:32
  Now,
• 21:33
  Tai
• 21:33
  Chi
• 21:33
  allows
• 21:34
  you
• 21:34
  to
• 21:34
  do
• 21:34
  that
• 21:34
  in
• 21:34
  a
• 21:34
  very
• 21:35
  embodied
• 21:35
  way.
• 21:36
  You
• 21:37
  still
• 21:37
  do
• 21:38
  one
• 21:38
  breath
• 21:38
  in,
• 21:38
  one
• 21:39
  breath
• 21:39
  out,
• 21:39
  but
• 21:40
  you
• 21:40
  are
• 21:40
  moving.
• 21:41
  You're
• 21:41
  moving
• 21:42
  your
• 21:42
  body.
• 21:43
  You're
• 21:43
  using
• 21:43
  your
• 21:43
  muscles.
• 21:44
  You're
• 21:46
  also
• 21:47
  practicing
• 21:47
  what
• 21:48
  is
• 21:48
  in
• 21:49
  Taoist
• 21:49
  philosophy,
• 21:50
  the
• 21:50
  movement
• 21:51
  of
• 21:51
  the
• 21:52
  way,
• 21:52
  the
• 21:52
  movement
• 21:52
  of
• 21:53
  dao.
• 21:53
  So
• 21:53
  the
• 21:54
  movement
• 21:54
  of
• 21:54
  the
• 21:54
  principle
• 21:55
  of
• 21:55
  the
• 21:55
  universe.
• 21:56
  The.
• 21:57
  The.
• 21:57
  The
• 21:57
  universe
• 21:58
  has
• 21:58
  scientific
• 21:59
  laws.
• 22:03
  Matter
• 22:03
  is
• 22:03
  neither
• 22:03
  created
• 22:04
  nor
• 22:04
  destroyed,
• 22:04
  just
• 22:04
  changes
• 22:05
  shape.
• 22:05
  Every
• 22:06
  action
• 22:06
  has
• 22:06
  an
• 22:06
  equal
• 22:07
  and
• 22:07
  opposite
• 22:07
  reaction.
• 22:08
  So
• 22:09
  every
• 22:09
  action
• 22:09
  has
• 22:10
  equal
• 22:10
  and
• 22:10
  opposite
• 22:11
  reaction.
• 22:11
  Is
• 22:11
  actually
• 22:12
  describing
• 22:13
  the
• 22:13
  movement
• 22:14
  of
• 22:14
  the
• 22:14
  way,
• 22:14
  the
• 22:15
  movement
• 22:15
  of
• 22:15
  the
• 22:15
  dao.
• 22:15
  Because
• 22:16
  the
• 22:16
  movement
• 22:16
  of
• 22:16
  the
• 22:17
  way,
• 22:17
  the
• 22:17
  movement
• 22:17
  of
• 22:17
  doubt
• 22:17
  is
• 22:18
  reverse
• 22:18
  and
• 22:18
  return.
• 22:19
  So
• 22:20
  when
• 22:20
  you
• 22:20
  practice
• 22:20
  Tai
• 22:20
  Chi,
• 22:21
  you
• 22:21
  practice
• 22:22
  one
• 22:22
  breath
• 22:22
  in,
• 22:23
  one
• 22:23
  breath
• 22:23
  out.
• 22:24
  This
• 22:25
  syncs
• 22:25
  with
• 22:25
  the
• 22:26
  universe.
• 22:26
  The
• 22:26
  universe
• 22:27
  has
• 22:28
  morning
• 22:28
  comes
• 22:29
  up
• 22:29
  to
• 22:30
  noon,
• 22:30
  back
• 22:30
  down
• 22:31
  to
• 22:31
  night.
• 22:32
  Winter
• 22:33
  comes
• 22:33
  up
• 22:34
  to
• 22:34
  summer,
• 22:34
  back
• 22:35
  down
• 22:35
  to
• 22:35
  winter.
• 22:36
  Tides
• 22:36
  go
• 22:37
  in,
• 22:37
  tides
• 22:38
  go
• 22:38
  out,
• 22:38
  waves
• 22:39
  come
• 22:39
  in,
• 22:39
  waves
• 22:40
  come
• 22:40
  out.
• 22:40
  Breath
• 22:41
  goes
• 22:41
  in,
• 22:41
  breath
• 22:41
  goes
• 22:42
  out.
• 22:42
  So
• 22:42
  you
• 22:42
  practice
• 22:42
  Tai
• 22:43
  Chi,
• 22:43
  you
• 22:43
  go
• 22:43
  a
• 22:43
  little
• 22:44
  bit
• 22:44
  forward
• 22:44
  this
• 22:44
  way,
• 22:45
  then
• 22:45
  you
• 22:45
  come
• 22:45
  back
• 22:45
  this
• 22:46
  way,
• 22:46
  reverse,
• 22:47
  and
• 22:47
  return
• 22:47
  is
• 22:47
  a
• 22:47
  movement
• 22:48
  of
• 22:48
  the
• 22:48
  way.
• 22:48
  So
• 22:48
  you
• 22:49
  seeing
• 22:49
  your
• 22:49
  body
• 22:50
  to
• 22:50
  this
• 22:52
  phenomenon
• 22:52
  that's
• 22:52
  in
• 22:53
  the
• 22:53
  universe,
• 22:53
  and
• 22:53
  you
• 22:55
  and
• 22:55
  the
• 22:55
  goal
• 22:55
  of
• 22:56
  human
• 22:56
  being
• 22:56
  is
• 22:57
  to
• 22:57
  experience
• 22:57
  this
• 22:58
  and
• 22:58
  then
• 22:59
  to
• 22:59
  integrate
• 22:59
  it.
• 23:00
  That's
• 23:00
  integrated.
• 23:01
  So
• 23:02
  Tai
• 23:02
  Chi
• 23:02
  every
• 23:03
  morning
• 23:04
  allows
• 23:04
  me
• 23:04
  to
• 23:04
  feel
• 23:05
  more
• 23:06
  free
• 23:06
  before
• 23:06
  I
• 23:07
  practice
• 23:07
  Tai
• 23:07
  Chi.
• 23:07
  I
• 23:08
  thought
• 23:08
  my
• 23:09
  philosophy,
• 23:09
  my
• 23:10
  life
• 23:10
  was
• 23:10
  very
• 23:10
  ethics.
• 23:11
  I
• 23:11
  needed
• 23:11
  to
• 23:11
  do
• 23:11
  everything
• 23:12
  just
• 23:12
  right.
• 23:13
  If
• 23:13
  I
• 23:13
  did
• 23:13
  everything
• 23:13
  just
• 23:13
  right,
• 23:14
  I
• 23:14
  feel
• 23:14
  very
• 23:14
  good.
• 23:14
  Perfect.
• 23:15
  Yeah,
• 23:15
  I
• 23:15
  feel
• 23:16
  very
• 23:16
  good.
• 23:16
  If
• 23:17
  I
• 23:17
  made
• 23:17
  a
• 23:17
  mistake,
• 23:17
  maybe
• 23:18
  I
• 23:18
  wouldn't
• 23:18
  feel
• 23:18
  so
• 23:18
  good.
• 23:19
  Mentions
• 23:20
  in
• 23:20
  Confucian
• 23:20
  philosophy
• 23:21
  calls
• 23:21
  this
• 23:21
  righteousness
• 23:21
  chi,
• 23:22
  that
• 23:22
  you
• 23:22
  do
• 23:23
  the
• 23:23
  good
• 23:23
  things,
• 23:23
  you
• 23:23
  feel
• 23:24
  better,
• 23:24
  you
• 23:24
  have
• 23:25
  good
• 23:25
  cheat.
• 23:25
  But
• 23:26
  now
• 23:26
  Tai
• 23:26
  Chi
• 23:27
  allowed
• 23:27
  me
• 23:27
  to
• 23:28
  sync
• 23:28
  with
• 23:29
  this
• 23:29
  type
• 23:29
  of
• 23:29
  principle
• 23:30
  every
• 23:30
  morning.
• 23:31
  So
• 23:31
  now
• 23:31
  I
• 23:31
  feel
• 23:32
  more
• 23:32
  free
• 23:32
  with
• 23:32
  myself.
• 23:33
  Okay,
• 23:33
  I
• 23:33
  made
• 23:33
  a
• 23:33
  little
• 23:34
  mistake
• 23:34
  here.
• 23:34
  Okay.
• 23:35
  I
• 23:35
  have
• 23:35
  some
• 23:35
  bad
• 23:35
  habits
• 23:36
  here.
• 23:36
  Okay.
• 23:36
  It's
• 23:37
  okay.
• 23:37
  I'll
• 23:37
  be
• 23:37
  gentle
• 23:38
  with
• 23:38
  myself.
• 23:38
  I
• 23:38
  have
• 23:38
  some
• 23:38
  old
• 23:39
  karma
• 23:39
  I'm
• 23:39
  working
• 23:39
  through.
• 23:40
  Okay.
• 23:41
  And.
• 23:41
  But
• 23:41
  now
• 23:41
  I'm
• 23:42
  okay.
• 23:42
  I
• 23:42
  still
• 23:42
  have
• 23:42
  the
• 23:42
  principle
• 23:43
  in
• 23:43
  it.
• 23:43
  The
• 23:44
  principle
• 23:44
  is
• 23:44
  still
• 23:44
  in
• 23:44
  it.
• 23:47
  What's
• 23:47
  so
• 23:47
  interesting
• 23:48
  you're
• 23:48
  talking
• 23:48
  about
• 23:48
  that
• 23:48
  I
• 23:49
  do
• 23:49
  something
• 23:49
  very
• 23:49
  similar
• 23:50
  called
• 23:51
  qigong.
• 23:53
  Yeah.
• 23:54
  And
• 23:55
  honestly,
• 23:55
  it
• 23:55
  totally
• 23:56
  changed
• 23:56
  my
• 23:57
  life.
• 23:58
  I
• 23:59
  have
• 24:00
  a
• 24:00
  lot
• 24:00
  of
• 24:00
  anxiety,
• 24:00
  but,
• 24:02
  like,
• 24:02
  why
• 24:03
  I
• 24:03
  started
• 24:04
  was
• 24:05
  I
• 24:05
  was
• 24:06
  really
• 24:06
  getting
• 24:06
  over
• 24:07
  a
• 24:07
  difficult
• 24:08
  time
• 24:08
  I
• 24:08
  had
• 24:09
  in
• 24:09
  high
• 24:10
  school
• 24:10
  with
• 24:11
  a
• 24:11
  bully,
• 24:11
  actually.
• 24:12
  And
• 24:13
  so,
• 24:14
  like,
• 24:14
  I
• 24:15
  just
• 24:15
  could
• 24:15
  not
• 24:15
  get
• 24:16
  the.
• 24:16
  The
• 24:16
  words
• 24:17
  that
• 24:17
  they
• 24:17
  had
• 24:17
  said
• 24:17
  to.
• 24:17
  Me
• 24:18
  out
• 24:18
  of
• 24:18
  my
• 24:18
  head.
• 24:19
  And
• 24:20
  when
• 24:20
  I
• 24:20
  started
• 24:21
  to
• 24:21
  practice
• 24:21
  qigong,
• 24:22
  it
• 24:22
  was
• 24:23
  like.
• 24:24
  Like
• 24:24
  suddenly
• 24:25
  I
• 24:25
  could
• 24:25
  control
• 24:26
  the
• 24:26
  thoughts
• 24:26
  in
• 24:27
  my
• 24:27
  head
• 24:27
  and,
• 24:27
  like,
• 24:28
  my
• 24:28
  hands
• 24:28
  weren't
• 24:28
  shaking
• 24:29
  and
• 24:29
  I.
• 24:30
  I
• 24:30
  felt
• 24:30
  very
• 24:31
  whole.
• 24:31
  It
• 24:31
  was
• 24:31
  very
• 24:32
  nice.
• 24:32
  So
• 24:33
  very
• 24:33
  good.
• 24:33
  Yeah,
• 24:34
  I
• 24:34
  practiced
• 24:34
  qigong
• 24:34
  before
• 24:35
  Tai
• 24:35
  chi,
• 24:35
  but
• 24:36
  go
• 24:36
  ahead.
• 24:36
  Healing.
• 24:37
  Oh,
• 24:37
  yeah.
• 24:37
  Just
• 24:37
  to
• 24:37
  piggyback
• 24:38
  off
• 24:38
  of
• 24:38
  what
• 24:39
  both
• 24:39
  of
• 24:39
  you
• 24:39
  guys
• 24:39
  are
• 24:40
  saying,
• 24:40
  while
• 24:41
  I
• 24:41
  haven't
• 24:41
  practiced
• 24:42
  either
• 24:42
  of
• 24:42
  those,
• 24:42
  I
• 24:44
  meditation.
• 24:44
  Because
• 24:45
  I
• 24:45
  do
• 24:45
  also,
• 24:45
  like,
• 24:46
  collect
• 24:46
  a
• 24:46
  lot
• 24:47
  of
• 24:47
  anxiety,
• 24:47
  a
• 24:47
  lot
• 24:48
  of
• 24:48
  rumination,
• 24:49
  stuff
• 24:49
  like
• 24:50
  that.
• 24:50
  And
• 24:51
  always
• 24:51
  in
• 24:51
  my
• 24:53
  meditation
• 24:54
  practice,
• 24:54
  it's
• 24:54
  always
• 24:55
  about
• 24:55
  noting.
• 24:56
  And
• 24:57
  we
• 24:57
  talk
• 24:57
  noting
• 24:57
  emotions,
• 24:58
  and
• 24:58
  you're
• 24:58
  never
• 24:59
  trying
• 24:59
  to
• 24:59
  suppress
• 25:00
  them
• 25:00
  as
• 25:01
  much
• 25:01
  as
• 25:01
  we
• 25:01
  ideally
• 25:02
  think,
• 25:03
  oh,
• 25:03
  these
• 25:03
  are
• 25:03
  bad
• 25:04
  thoughts,
• 25:04
  these
• 25:04
  are
• 25:05
  bad,
• 25:05
  you
• 25:06
  know,
• 25:06
  emotions.
• 25:06
  We
• 25:07
  want
• 25:07
  to
• 25:07
  get
• 25:07
  rid
• 25:07
  of
• 25:07
  them
• 25:07
  or
• 25:08
  expel
• 25:08
  them.
• 25:09
  Just
• 25:09
  the
• 25:09
  noting
• 25:10
  and
• 25:10
  the
• 25:11
  like,
• 25:11
  we
• 25:11
  talked
• 25:12
  about,
• 25:12
  like,
• 25:12
  what
• 25:12
  is
• 25:13
  making
• 25:13
  me
• 25:13
  feel
• 25:13
  that
• 25:13
  way?
• 25:14
  Is
• 25:14
  it
• 25:14
  something
• 25:14
  outside
• 25:15
  of
• 25:15
  me
• 25:15
  that
• 25:16
  is
• 25:16
  happening
• 25:17
  and,
• 25:17
  you
• 25:17
  know,
• 25:18
  causing
• 25:18
  chaos,
• 25:18
  or
• 25:19
  is
• 25:19
  it
• 25:19
  something
• 25:19
  internal
• 25:21
  and
• 25:21
  being
• 25:22
  able
• 25:22
  to
• 25:22
  relate
• 25:22
  that
• 25:22
  to
• 25:23
  how
• 25:23
  it's
• 25:24
  making
• 25:24
  my
• 25:24
  body,
• 25:25
  how
• 25:26
  it
• 25:26
  shows
• 25:26
  up
• 25:26
  in
• 25:26
  my
• 25:26
  body,
• 25:27
  because
• 25:27
  I
• 25:27
  can
• 25:28
  definitely
• 25:28
  tell,
• 25:28
  like,
• 25:29
  I
• 25:29
  get
• 25:29
  really
• 25:29
  tense
• 25:30
  or.
• 25:31
  Oh,
• 25:32
  yeah.
• 25:32
  And
• 25:32
  you
• 25:33
  can
• 25:33
  definitely
• 25:33
  feel
• 25:33
  after
• 25:34
  long
• 25:36
  bouts
• 25:36
  of
• 25:37
  stress
• 25:38
  or
• 25:38
  anxiety
• 25:39
  that
• 25:40
  you
• 25:40
  just
• 25:41
  feel
• 25:41
  that
• 25:41
  tension.
• 25:42
  Like,
• 25:42
  you
• 25:42
  might
• 25:42
  get
• 25:43
  used
• 25:43
  to
• 25:43
  it
• 25:43
  because
• 25:44
  it's
• 25:44
  just
• 25:44
  happening
• 25:45
  for
• 25:45
  a
• 25:45
  while
• 25:46
  and
• 25:46
  but
• 25:46
  once
• 25:47
  you
• 25:47
  maybe
• 25:47
  take
• 25:47
  a
• 25:48
  second
• 25:48
  to
• 25:48
  meditate
• 25:49
  or
• 25:49
  to
• 25:49
  do
• 25:50
  I
• 25:51
  practice
• 25:51
  more
• 25:51
  yoga.
• 25:53
  But
• 25:53
  I
• 25:54
  that
• 25:54
  physical
• 25:55
  like
• 25:55
  once
• 25:55
  I'm
• 25:56
  actually
• 25:56
  getting
• 25:56
  like
• 25:57
  in
• 25:57
  touch
• 25:57
  with
• 25:57
  my
• 25:57
  physical
• 25:58
  body
• 25:58
  being
• 25:58
  like,
• 25:59
  oh,
• 26:00
  I
• 26:00
  didn't
• 26:00
  let
• 26:00
  myself
• 26:01
  just
• 26:01
  breathe.
• 26:02
  I'm
• 26:02
  not
• 26:02
  letting
• 26:02
  myself
• 26:03
  just
• 26:03
  exist
• 26:04
  as
• 26:04
  a
• 26:04
  person
• 26:05
  because
• 26:05
  I'm
• 26:05
  so
• 26:06
  wound
• 26:06
  up.
• 26:07
  And
• 26:08
  realizing
• 26:09
  that
• 26:09
  those
• 26:09
  thoughts
• 26:10
  and
• 26:10
  those
• 26:11
  physical
• 26:13
  sensations
• 26:14
  are
• 26:14
  connected
• 26:15
  has
• 26:15
  really
• 26:16
  helped
• 26:16
  me.
• 26:16
  I
• 26:16
  know
• 26:16
  I
• 26:17
  probably
• 26:18
  don't
• 26:18
  do
• 26:19
  as
• 26:20
  much
• 26:20
  of
• 26:20
  the
• 26:21
  meditation
• 26:21
  or
• 26:21
  as
• 26:22
  much
• 26:22
  as
• 26:22
  the
• 26:22
  yoga
• 26:23
  that
• 26:23
  would
• 26:23
  be
• 26:23
  beneficial
• 26:24
  to
• 26:24
  me.
• 26:24
  But
• 26:24
  I
• 26:24
  also
• 26:25
  know
• 26:26
  because
• 26:26
  I
• 26:26
  think
• 26:26
  for
• 26:26
  a
• 26:26
  while
• 26:27
  I
• 26:27
  was
• 26:27
  like,
• 26:27
  oh,
• 26:28
  meditation,
• 26:28
  that's
• 26:29
  hard.
• 26:29
  That's
• 26:30
  not
• 26:30
  going
• 26:30
  to
• 26:30
  work
• 26:30
  for
• 26:31
  me.
• 26:31
  You
• 26:31
  try
• 26:31
  for
• 26:31
  two
• 26:32
  minutes
• 26:32
  and
• 26:32
  you
• 26:32
  know
• 26:33
  it
• 26:33
  doesn't
• 26:33
  work
• 26:33
  and
• 26:33
  you're
• 26:34
  like,
• 26:34
  ah,
• 26:34
  forget
• 26:35
  it.
• 26:35
  But
• 26:36
  I
• 26:36
  think
• 26:37
  the
• 26:38
  real
• 26:38
  like
• 26:39
  struggle
• 26:39
  is
• 26:40
  actually
• 26:40
  forcing
• 26:40
  yourself
• 26:41
  to
• 26:41
  go
• 26:41
  through
• 26:41
  with
• 26:42
  it
• 26:42
  and
• 26:42
  make
• 26:42
  it
• 26:43
  a
• 26:43
  daily
• 26:43
  practice
• 26:44
  this
• 26:44
  and
• 26:44
  realize
• 26:45
  how
• 26:45
  connected
• 26:46
  the,
• 26:47
  you
• 26:48
  know,
• 26:48
  our
• 26:48
  brain
• 26:49
  and
• 26:49
  our

  are
• 26:50
  to
• 26:50
  our
