In the serene unfolding of today’s episode, we are honored to be joined by the enlightened Phillip Mountrose, a pioneer in the field of holistic healing and spiritual growth. Phillip's journey, intertwined with his wife and partner Jane, is a testament to the power of love, creativity, and resilience in navigating the spiritual and physical realms. His insights into connecting with the higher self, the power of visualization, and the art of holistic healing offer profound guidance for those seeking deeper understanding and transformation.Phillip Mountrose began his spiritual journey in his youth, feeling a sense of the bigger picture and a desire to connect with the world in a more profound way. He shared how early experiences of isolation and rejection during his adolescent years pushed him towards a deeper inquiry into life's purpose and the illusions of societal norms. This quest led him to explore various spiritual teachings, eventually guiding him to the works of mystics like Gurdjieff and Uspensky, and to practices like hypnotherapy and holistic healing.In this enlightening conversation, Phillip delves into the practice of tapping, a key aspect of Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT). By tapping on specific points on the body, one can balance the system and clear emotional and physical blockages. "Even though I have this irritation about my bill, anything is possible and miracles are happening now," he explains, highlighting how affirmations can enhance the healing process. This simple yet profound practice aligns the body and mind, facilitating deep transformations.SPIRITUAL TAKEAWAYSConnecting to Your Higher Self: Phillip emphasizes the importance of connecting to your higher self through practices like soul centering and visualization. By opening your heart and tuning into your inner guidance, you can access profound wisdom and clarity that transcend everyday challenges.Embracing Your Unique Genius: Discovering and embracing your unique gifts and talents is crucial for living a fulfilled life. Whether it’s through art, healing, or any other passion, your unique genius is a key to your life’s purpose and happiness.Healing Through Awareness: Awareness is the first step to healing. By recognizing and addressing emotional and physical traumas, often through practices like EFT and visualization, you can transform your life and align with your true self.Phillip shares a compelling story of how he and Jane used their understanding of holistic healing to navigate life's challenges. Moving from Sacramento to the Central Coast of California was a significant change that required patience and trust in the process. Despite a challenging real estate market, they remained open and ready for the right moment, which eventually came in the form of an unexpected buyer. This story illustrates the importance of being grounded and pragmatic while following your heart and intuition.In the realm of spiritual kinesiology, Phillip discusses how muscle testing can reveal hidden issues and guide the healing process. This technique, combined with connecting to the soul, provides a powerful tool for transformation. By addressing deeper issues, whether they are emotional, physical, or spiritual, one can achieve profound healing and alignment.Phillip’s approach to overcoming fear is particularly insightful. He suggests that fear is a doorway to discovering and mastering important life lessons. By facing and understanding our fears, we can transform them into opportunities for growth and empowerment. His analogy of the cave, where the treasures we seek lie within our deepest fears, resonates deeply and encourages us to embrace challenges as paths to enlightenment.In conclusion, Phillip Mountrose’s wisdom and practices offer a holistic approach to living a more conscious and fulfilling life. By connecting to our higher selves, embracing our unique genius, and using tools like EFT and spiritual kinesiology, we can navigate life’s challenges with grace and resilience. His journey and teachings remind us of the power of love, creativity, and self-awareness in achieving true happiness and spiritual fulfillment.Please enjoy my conversation with Phillip Mountrose.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

It's easy to take it all for granted and go through life feeling invincible-especially if you've spent your life successfully facing challenges, overcoming obstacles in the way, and working hard to improve yourself both mentally and physically. Yet for all of us, this feeling of invincibility is an illusion.From Sudden Death to Paradise shares one man's story of suddenly facing his mortality and coming to terms with what he experienced. After being exposed to toxic chemicals while in the military, and unknown to him, author T. S. Dismas developed an autoimmune disease that would kill him-one night, Dismas suffered sudden heart failure and died for ten minutes. Yet in that moment, he had a near-death experience and visited heaven, where he would learn a valuable lesson about himself, his life, his faith, and God.No amount of suffering could take away his joy and peace, and after his experience, life was now sweet and truly a gift. With a new heart-both literally and spiritually-he was able to realize his previous life was not part of God's plan, and that embracing God's love is the only way to sustain happiness and find meaning in this life.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

If you need some inspiration in your life this is the episode for you. We have on the show podcast, author and one of the fittest men in the world Rich Roll. At age 40, and after years of struggling with drugs, alcohol, and unhealthy living, Rich dedicated his diet to plants and his body to purposeful action. Just two years later, he began clocking top finishes at Ultraman World Championships and leading a community of others looking to transform their lives.A graduate of Stanford University and Cornell Law School, Rich is a 55-year old, accomplished vegan ultra-endurance athlete and former entertainment attorney turned full-time wellness & plant-based nutrition advocate, popular public speaker, husband, father of 4 and inspiration to people worldwide as a transformative example of courageous and healthy living.In 2012, Rich became a #1 bestselling author with the publication of his inspirational memoir Finding Ultra: Rejecting Middle Age, Becoming One of the World's Fittest Men, and Discovering Myself.Taking up where the book leaves off, in 2013 Rich launched the wildly popular Rich Roll Podcast, which persistently sits atop the iTunes top-10 lists. In 2014, Rich & his wife Julie Piatt published the bestselling cookbook and lifestyle primer, The Plantpower Way: Whole Food Plant-Based Recipes And Guidance For The Whole Family.In May 2010, Rich and his ultra-colleague Jason Lester accomplished an unprecedented feat of staggering endurance many said was not possible. Something they call the EPIC5 CHALLENGE– an odyssey that entailed completing 5 ironman-distance triathlons on 5 islands of Hawaii in under a week. Commencing on Kauai, they travelled to Oahu, Molokai and Maui before finishing on the Big Island, following the course of the Ironman World Championships on the Kona coast.In addition, Rich has been a top finisher at the 2008 and 2009 Ultraman World Championships in Hawaii. Considered by many to be one of world’s most daunting and grueling endurance races on the planet, Ultraman is a 3-day / 320 mile double-ironman distance triathlon that circumnavigates the entire Big Island. Limited to only 35 carefully selected invitation-only participants from all over the world, Day 1 involves a 6.2 mile ocean swim immediately followed by a 90 mile cross-country cycling race. Day 2 is a 170 mile cycling race. And the event culminates on Day 3 with a 52 mile double marathon run on the searing hot lava fields of the Kona coast.But what makes Rich truly remarkable is that less than two years prior to his first Ultraman, he didn’t even own a bike, let alone race one.Although he competed as a butterfly swimmer at Stanford University in the late 80’s, Rich’s career was cut short by struggles with drugs and alcohol — an addiction that led him astray for the next decade, alienating friends, colleagues and family, landing him in jails, institutions and ultimately rehab at age 31. Although sober, Rich soon found himself 50 pounds overweight; the furthest thing from fit. Everything came to head on the eve of his 40th birthday. Defeated by a mere flight of stairs that left him buckled over in pain, he foresaw the almost certain heart attack looming in his near future."It was time for a major life change." – RICH ROLLThe day immediately following his staircase epiphany, Rich overhauled his diet, became a dedicated vegan, put on his running shoes and jumped back into the pool. It wasn’t long before ambition took hold and his quest to participate in Ultraman slowly began. Two years later, 50 pounds lighter, and fueled by nothing but plants, he surprised the triathlon & ultra communities by not only becoming the first vegan to complete the 320-mile über-endurance event, but by finishing in the top 10 males (3rd fastest American) with the 2nd fastest swim split — all despite having never previously completed even a half-ironman distance triathlon.In 2009, Rich returned to Ultraman twice the athlete he was the year prior. Despite a stacked field, he took home first day honors with a blistering 2:21 swim victory (6th fastest of all time) and a third fastest bike leg to win the day with a 10 minute lead on the field. On Day 2 Rich suffered a serious bike crash but managed to salvage the day in 6th place overall. With an injured knee and shoulder Rich nonetheless went on to a 7:51 Day 3 double-marathon to hold onto 6th place overall.Rich’s plant-fueled feats of boundary-pushing athleticism have been featured on CNN and major publications including The New York Times, Los Angeles Times Sunday Magazine, The Huffington Post, Stanford Magazine, Men’s Health Living, VegNews, Triathlete, Outside, 3/GO Magazine and Men’s Fitness Magazine, which named Rich as one of the “25 Fittest Men in the World.”I can't think of a better guest for our 100th episode of Next Level Soul.
