In this episode, I address exploration of true happiness, distinguishing it from temporary emotional states. True happiness is portrayed as a frequency, a state of consciousness within oneself, shifting focus from external sources. I delve into higher states associated with frequency, vibration, consciousness, and spirituality, contrasting them with lower states tied to ego personality. The pursuit of happiness through the ego is deemed transient, and the episode shares insights from a shaman exemplifying consistent happiness irrespective of external circumstances.

Reflecting on living dreams, I explore three types: the common "nightmare", the "daydream", and the "sacred dream". Many believe happiness comes with XYZ, a mindset I too once held.

I invite all seeking fulfillment to listen, absorb, and actively apply, embarking on a journey toward a purposeful life in the sacred dream.

Do you feel like you don't fully understand reality? Have you ever sensed there might be more to life than what you perceive with your five physical senses? In this very insightful episode, I am joined by spiritual teacher and bestselling author Gary Zukav. Along the way, we have an expansive conversation exploring topics like authentic power, emotional awareness, spiritual partnership, and moving beyond five sensory perception into multi-sensory living. Gary shares profound insights from his spiritual journey and decades of experience guiding others. Gary recounts his journey starting from writing about quantum physics in The Dancing Wu Li Masters to reach a deeper understanding of reality and human consciousness. He discusses key quantum physics experiments and how the contradictory results point to the existence of duality. This leads to a realization that we can only see reality based on how we choose to observe and measure it. Building on the physics concepts, he asserts that humanity is undergoing an epic transformation from five sensory perception to becoming multi-sensory. He sees this as the next phase of evolution to gain a deeper understanding of the meaning and purpose of life. It requires moving from external power based on manipulation and control to authentic power aligned with the soul. Gary touches on his prolific appearances on the Oprah Winfrey Show, which started organically from a shared sense of spiritual mission. He reflects on how much Oprah resonated with his message around intention and authenticity. He talks about reaching beyond language and labels to connect with universal truths that all traditions point to - light, compassion, inclusiveness, and love. Transformational Takeaway: We're awakening to deeper realities beyond the five senses. By distinguishing love from fear within ourselves, we can override fearful reactions and act from love instead. This alignment of our personality with our soul creates ""authentic power"" and profoundly transforms us. What steps can you take today to fulfill this within yourself?

Before you start, download the Burn Your Stories Workbook to follow along with this episode. In this milestone 300th episode, I guide you through a deep exploration of the stories you've been telling yourself and how they shape your life, circumstances, and outcomes. We delve into identifying a challenging situation from the past year and understanding how your internal narratives influenced it. This episode emphasizes a crucial truth: your stories construct your reality. To transform any area of your life, it's essential to change the underlying stories that define it. Here are some things to keep in mind and consider: Everything you tell yourself is a story that influences your experiences Your stories directly create your life circumstances Shift the narrative to reinvent outcomes During the episode, I examine limiting stories that impact relationships, money, health, and more. I stress noticing the repeated tales we accept as truth, though they hinder us. Past events or suggestions from authority figures often plant restrictive assumptions we carry for years. Here are a few more things to consider and evaluate: Relationships suffer when we refuse to confront our self-limiting narratives Health improves dramatically when dropping assumption-laden medical stories Money flourishes for those who edit scarcity-based internal dialogues So, how did we ‘Burn Our Stories’? I lead my listeners through a cathartic exercise - writing down their limiting stories and burning them. This act releases associated emotions while imagining a new reality unencumbered by past constraints. Fire's symbolic purification clears space for crafting empowering narratives. Here’s what’s KEY about this exercise: Writing down feelings around confining stories brings clarity The ritual burning cleanses energy to enable forward movement Mindfully focusing on releasing the past is profoundly liberating Transformational Takeaway: Our stories shape our worlds and realities. What limiting tales still live within, keeping you stuck? How would your life transform by reinventing these narratives?

Have you been feeling overwhelmed and wishing life was just easier? You're not alone. We all face challenges with money, health, relationships, and more. But what if there were some surprisingly simple mindset shifts that could lift the burden? In this episode, I share five powerful lessons and ways of thinking that can make your life much easier. These insights were gained over decades of apprenticing with a shaman and integrating ancient wisdom. Here are a few of the powerful insights I shared: Fear is the idleness of will. The world is this way or that way because you tell yourself it is this way or that way. Your inner assumptions become your reality. There are only two core human emotions: love and fear. The key is focusing on love rather than fear. Transformational Takeaway: These five powerful lessons can truly make your life easier if embraced fully. Let go of worry and fear, become master of your attention, use your will intentionally, change your self-talk, and choose love over fear. What shifts in perspective and habits could have the biggest positive impact on your life right now? VISIT THE SHOW NOTES HERE FOR MORE: https://www.jimfortin.com/299 LIKED THE EPISODE?
