This episode of Aubrey Marcus Podcast Books features one of my favorite books--Island by Aldous Huxley. It is a masterpiece of utopian fiction that can completely shatter your paradigm. The section I read focuses in on the character Will and his first experience with Moksha, a fictional psychedelic sacrament. One central tenet of this book and the scene specifically is the importance of cultivating awareness of your destructive mental patterns.   Island by Aldous Huxley | https://amzn.to/350VxTG   Connect with Aubrey Website | https://www.aubreymarcus.com/ Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/aubreymarcus/ Twitter | https://twitter.com/aubreymarcus Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/AubreyMarcus/   Check out  Own The Day Own Your Life by Aubrey Marcus|  https://bit.ly/2t6x4hu   Get 10% off Onnit products |  https://www.onnit.com/Aubrey/   Subscribe to the Aubrey Marcus Newsletter:  https://www.aubreymarcus.com/pages/email   Subscribe to the Aubrey Marcus Podcast: iTunes | https://apple.co/2lMZRCn Spotify | https://spoti.fi/2EaELZO Stitcher | https://bit.ly/2G8ccJt IHeartRadio | https://ihr.fm/2UVVV0M Google Play Music | https://bit.ly/2t72QIp Android | https://bit.ly/2OQeBQg

As many of you know I tend to find myself in difficult positions, perhaps so I can find a pathway out of these mental, emotional, and physical challenges. It’s like I’m playing a giant game of Escape Room with my own mind. One brutal, but incredibly helpful tactic I leverage when I find myself in a tight internal spot is the writing of Anthony de Mello. Anthony de Mello is an author whose wisdom is only matched by the brutality in which he delivers it. This section from his book The Way To Love is no different. Anthony de Mello cuts straight to the path to the Kingdom of Joy and flips the entire value system that we have been taught on its head. If Anthony de Mello is a bit much for your taste, I have added my own pragmatism to help you apply the wisdom of his philosophy in this episode of Aubrey Marcus Podcast Books.   Check Out Clearlight Saunas at Healwithheat.com  and mention Aubrey Marcus to get $500 off!

When Colin Guinn and Christie Lee Woods went on The Amazing Race in 2004 they were a competitive team enroute to disaster. Not only did they not win in 2004 the producers decided to make them the villains of the season and it worked. Colin went viral and was quickly one of the most hated men in America, it took a toll on their lives and their relationship. 15 years later, Colin and Christie stand before you happier and healthier spiritually, mentally, and emotionally as well as the 2019 winners of the amazing race. Colin and Christie have grown individually and as a couple an unreal amount. We talk about the importance of the energy you bring to your problems, harnessing your capacity to listen to the whispers that the universe mutters to you, and of course...Sex Magic.   Connect with Christie Woods: Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/christiewoods1/   Connect with Colin Guinn Instagram| https://www.instagram.com/colinguinn/   Connect with Aubrey: Website | https://www.aubreymarcus.com/ Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/aubreymarcus/ Twitter | https://twitter.com/aubreymarcus Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/AubreyMarcus/     Get %15 off Kettle & Fire products | KettleAndFire.com/Aubrey    Check out Vital Farms Ghee | VitalFarms.com/Ghee   Get 10% off Onnit products |  https://www.onnit.com/Aubrey/   Subscribe to the Aubrey Marcus Newsletter:  https://www.aubreymarcus.com/pages/email   Check out Own The Day Own Your Life by Aubrey Marcus|  https://bit.ly/2t6x4hu   Subscribe to the Aubrey Marcus Podcast: iTunes | https://apple.co/2lMZRCn Spotify | https://spoti.fi/2EaELZO Stitcher | https://bit.ly/2G8ccJt IHeartRadio | https://ihr.fm/2UVVV0M Google Play Music | https://bit.ly/2t72QIp Android | https://bit.ly/2OQeBQg   Show Notes Abraham Hicks | https://www.abraham-hicks.com/ Joe Dispenza | http://bit.ly/2kPhp2U Think and Grow Rich | https://amzn.to/2lSDoGv Dr. Emoto | https://whatthebleep.com/water-crystals/ Ayahuasca | http://bit.ly/2mnwfyd Soltara | https://soltara.co Vibe-0-Meter | http://bit.ly/2kQ2zcu Christie’s Instagram Post | http://bit.ly/2m0GVlO Anahata | http://bit.ly/2mezgk2 Sex Magic | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_magic  

Don Miguel Ruiz Jr is the son of one of my favorite spiritual mentors. I haven’t spent a lot of time with his books, but I grabbed this book from my bookshelf, drawn to the Miguel Ruiz name. I opened to a random page that I had dog-eared many years ago and was blown away with the truth that was being bestowed upon me. Perhaps it is the classic case that the teaching appears when the student is ready. It has taken me a long time to realize that one of the great human freedoms is our own ability to recognize that we are worthy of existence, simply because we are. In his book The Five Levels Of Attachment Don Miguel Ruiz jr really brings this truth home.   The Five Levels of Attachment by Don Miguel Ruiz Jr | https://amzn.to/34tgN4k   Connect with Don Miguel Ruiz Jr | https://www.miguelruizjr.com/   Connect with Aubrey: Website | https://www.aubreymarcus.com/ Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/aubreymarcus/ Twitter | https://twitter.com/aubreymarcus Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/AubreyMarcus/   Check out Own The Day Own Your Life by Aubrey Marcus|  https://bit.ly/2t6x4hu   Get 10% off Onnit products |  https://www.onnit.com/Aubrey/   Subscribe to the Aubrey Marcus Newsletter:  https://www.aubreymarcus.com/pages/email   Subscribe to the Aubrey Marcus Podcast: iTunes | https://apple.co/2lMZRCn Spotify | https://spoti.fi/2EaELZO Stitcher | https://bit.ly/2G8ccJt IHeartRadio | https://ihr.fm/2UVVV0M Google Play Music | https://bit.ly/2t72QIp Android | https://bit.ly/2OQeBQg  

Alex Banayan came on for a marathon of a podcast officially breaking the AMP record for the longest podcast. It was beautiful to sit and have the opportunity to go incredibly deep with one of the most interesting and inspiring people I’ve ever come across. We tell some intimate stories of love and loss, and dive into the core teachings of our lives--Fear, death, and the true measure of success.

Today I am reading an excerpt from Jordan B Peterson’s 12 Rules For Life: An Antidote To Chaos.  The section I am reading is at the end of the book, and I believe its significance is often overlooked. In this section Jordan asks some of the most pragmatic questions: What shall I do today? Tomorrow? With my life? Instead of thinking about the answer, he just taps into his own inner knowing and writes it down--A skill that all of us have the ability to utilize.     12 Rules For Life | https://www.jordanbpeterson.com/12-rules-for-life/   Connect with Jordan Peterson: Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/jordan.b.peterson/ Twitter | https://twitter.com/jordanbpeterson   Connect with Aubrey: Website | https://www.aubreymarcus.com/ Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/aubreymarcus/ Twitter | https://twitter.com/aubreymarcus Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/AubreyMarcus/   Pure Spectrum is committed to revolutionizing the phytocannabinoid industry.

I had such a great time on this podcast. Miki Agrawal is an author and serial entrepreneur who is the founder and Chief Creative Officer of TUSHY--Not the porn site, but the bidet company. Miki has built her empire speaking honestly about the human body and disrupting the shame surrounding the topics that have been deemed taboo. We talk a lot about the fuel that sustains an entrepreneur, the value of competition, and of course a little bit of toilet humor.   Connect with Miki Agrawal: Tushy | https://hellotushy.com/ Website | https://www.mikiagrawal.com/ Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/mikiagrawal/ Twitter | https://twitter.com/twinmiki Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/twinmiki/ Youtube | https://www.youtube.com/user/mikiagrawal/ Check out Miki Agrawal’s books | https://www.mikiagrawal.com/books Connect with Aubrey: Website | https://www.aubreymarcus.com/ Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/aubreymarcus/ Twitter | https://twitter.com/aubreymarcus Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/AubreyMarcus/   Check out Own The Day Own Your Life by Aubrey Marcus|  https://bit.ly/2t6x4hu   Get 10% off Onnit products |  https://www.onnit.com/Aubrey/   Subscribe to the Aubrey Marcus Newsletter:  https://www.aubreymarcus.com/pages/email   Subscribe to the Aubrey Marcus Podcast: iTunes | https://apple.co/2lMZRCn Spotify | https://spoti.fi/2EaELZO Stitcher | https://bit.ly/2G8ccJt IHeartRadio | https://ihr.fm/2UVVV0M Google Play Music | https://bit.ly/2t72QIp Android | https://bit.ly/2OQeBQg Show Notes Tushy Videos | https://hellotushy.com/pages/tushy-tv I Know What You Did Last Summer | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EcWK0M4VMjA Tribe by Sebastian Junger | http://www.sebastianjunger.com/tribe-by-sebastian-junger Everything is F*cked by Mark Manson | https://markmanson.net/books/everything-is-fucked Scene from Bruno | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ELZjnIWo9OU God of Chaos Asteroid | https://bit.ly/2zcRLZC

Mark Manson is not only one of the great authors of our time, but also one of the most important modern philosophers. I know we are afraid to call our thought leaders today “philosophers” because a philosopher should be old, probably dead, and give no functional wisdom. Mark is young, alive, practical AF and yes, a philosopher. In this AMP Books I go over Manson’s 1st Law of Emotion: For Every Action, There Is An Equal And Opposite Emotional Reaction. The reading is from Mark’s latest best seller Everything Is F’d: A Book About Hope.

My man Humble The Poet dropped by to share some witty wisdom in his own poetic way. Word by word, Humble is laying down the bricks on the pathway to a life of growth and satisfaction. We talk about the dichotomy of being a “success” in the eyes of social media, where the more connected we are, the more lonely we become. This podcast is full of the “tools” that both Humble and I have used to help us navigate the waters of life. In a more classic AMP fashion we also share my most recent psychedelic experience, Humble’s first ayahuasca experience, and his new book Things No One Else Can Teach Us.
