(Keep It Simple Superhuman). Did you know visualization has become so popular that it is used across various fields like military, neuroscience, cognitive science, and professional sports? Scientific research has proven that it supports neuroplasticity and overall health when executed regularly with clear intentions. I have practiced visualization for forty years and trust in its power. SHARE THIS ON TWITTER THE MARK DIVINE SHOW Honoring Indigenous Culture Episode #426 Psychedelics and Religion (with Mathew Weintraub)   This passionate author and activist, Matthew Weintraub (@heytrub), is about healing Mother Earth and the human family. As a natural medicine activist and author of The Psychedelic Origin of Religion, he is a driving force in the modern psychedelic movement. Matthew has helped many people find healing and transformation. He continues to inspire others through his writing, collaborations, and presence.  Key Takeaways: Domination Government: We have reached a point where our US government is no longer honoring the right to practice religion freely. We, the people, need to uphold the US Constitution for all people. Citizens need to wake up and see that they are being distracted and misinformed. And each day, freedoms are being stripped away. It is easy to take away a right/freedom but harder to get it back.  Imagine: “Imagine all the people living for today.” A prolific writer and artist John Lennon offered one of the best prayers for the world. This song is an excellent meditation on the possibility of everyone coming together to heal and unite. Imagine: By John Lennon Appropriation of Plant Medicine: As psychedelics become more mainstream in the Western world, it is crucial to be aware of the colonialistic mind and how it commandeers things as its own when indigenous cultures have been practicing and using the medicines for years. It is important to build alliances with chiefs from indigenous nations to respect the lineages. The Herd of One: In many indigenous cultures, there is the mentality of what someone does to their neighbor, they do to themself. This way of life applies to healing oneself as well. The perspective is that in a healing circle, or ceremony, the individual (the herd of one) is everyone (the herd of all). Indigenous cultures believe that we heal together and make the whole world better by healing ourselves.  LISTEN HERE WATCH ON YOUTUBE Use coupon code BRUTEFORCE20to save 20% on a BONEFROG Event WHAT I'M READING Focus: The Hidden Driver of Excellence by Daniel Goleman. Goleman’s book Emotional Intelligence was a #1 International best seller and a great read. In this book, he shares his insights on how attention works. He found it works much like a muscle: use it poorly, and it can wither; work it well, and it grows. In the age of unstoppable distractions, Goleman argues that now more than ever, we must learn to sharpen our focus to thrive in a complex world.  WHAT'S INSPIRING ME Positive.News is a news source devoted to bringing good news to the masses. It focuses on what is going right in the world versus all the gloom and doom. Did you know that statistics show the masses are addicted to receiving bad news? That's right, most news networks' ratings plummet when they report positive news and increase when there is some catastrophe. This knowledge inspires me to look for good news.  QUOTE OF THE WEEK PRACTICE OR HABIT TO TRY Card Puzzles for Communication Development: This exercise helps show others' perspectives, and it builds communication. Get a deck of cards and cut four cards per person for a dyad 1. (Cut each playing card into half diagonally, then in half diagonally again, so you have four triangular pieces.) Place the cut-up cards into an envelope. Set a timer for 3 minutes and begin with your teammates putting together the cards. When time is up, see how many you put together and ask the participants to think about their strategies: negotiation techniques, active listening, or empathy.
