BOO: Finding Your Competing Commitments and Endless Possibilities with NeuroHacking (with James Schmachtenberger.)

WHAT I'M WRITING ABOUT THIS WEEK

In this week's blog, we look at your BOO (Background of Obviousness) and the competing commitments you have in your unconscious mind. Did you know that your default mode network keeps bad memories on hand and ready to save you from the saber-toothed tigers and a nasty neighbor? Sensations are associated with these painful memories (i.e., events, attitudes, or ways of being from your past). Your judgmental, fear-based thinking mind has attached disempowering meaning to these sensations, and these are the competing commitments that hold you back from making the changes you know will improve your life.

Episode #397 Endless Possibilities with NeuroHacking (with James Schmachtenberger)

On today's podcast, Commander Divine speaks with James Schmachtenberger, CEO and co-founder of the NeuroHacker Collective.

James has been an entrepreneur since the age of 17, with businesses that were diverse yet always focused on being in service to the health and well being of humanity.

Key Takeaways:

Longevity: There are cells in our body called senescence cells. These cells are healthy cells that continue to divide and reproduce until they start to die, which is called apoptosis.These cells then affect other cells to begin to die in the body. Research is starting to show that we can stop this from happening, and therefore increase quality and length of life.
Successful Path for Meditation: Because our bodies are in a hyper-aroused state due to modern living. Inoreder to have a more beneficial and enjoyable meditation practice it is important to prime yourself through journaling, exercise, and breathwork before sitting to meditate.
Corruption in Politics: Large Companies invest in having highly intelligent and well trained professionals to surround congress people in order to make sure that the policies passed favor their needs. The system is corrupt and needs to change so people going into politics with the best intentions are not corrupted.
Rethinking Education: Traditional ways of educating are good for some learning. However, as more research is being done there is proof that there is a better way. This way is educating children through their interests and teaching them how to think and explore to gain knowledge and information.

WHAT I'M READING

The End of Your World

by Adyashanti
The End of Your World is Adyashanti’s response to a growing need for direction on the spiritual path. More and more people are waking up spiritually. And for most of them, the question becomes: Now what? Adyashanti begins by describing the phenomenon that perplexes so many seekers as they fluctuate in experiences of bliss, ego, nothingness, and enlightenment.

With straight talk and penetrating insight, Adyashanti points out the pitfalls and cul-de-sacs that “un-enlighten” us along the spiritual/life journey, including the trap of meaninglessness, how the ego can “co-opt” realization for its own purposes, the illusion of superiority that may accompany intense spiritual breakthroughs, and the danger of becoming “drunk on emptiness.”

WHAT'S INSPIRING ME

Spanish Town Powered By Waves Innovation and application of efficient power resources is cool. This Basque (Northern Spain) town of Mutriku owes its soul to the sea. It sits wedged into a bay carved out of the rugged, steep cliffs.In 2011, the town installed the Mutriku Wave Energy Plant, the first commercial wave power plant in Europe. Harnessing the force of the waves, the plant's 16 turbines generate up to 296 kilowatts of electricity, enough to power around 250 homes and cut 600 tonnes of carbon emissions each year. In 2020, the plant hit a major milestone, producing two gigawatts of cumulative electricity, a record for any wave plant and an example of the role marine power could play in the global transition towards clean energy!

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

PRACTICE OR HABIT TO TRY

Be honest and unearth your BOO (Background of Obviousness). Sit down with a pen and paper and write down one goal you want to accomplish. Now write out all the things that you are currently doing or not doing to reach this goal. Ask yourself, what stories do I hold about myself or this goal that are competing with me actualizing it? Pause and breathe into any discomfort you may feel and then write out thoughts, feelings and emotions. What are any assumptions you make if you see yourself achieving this goal (good and bad)? Write it out. Then make a SMART-P plan to take your goal into action.
