We will learn: How experiencing trauma and tragedy can make you more receptive to new spiritual paths.  How meditation helps stay resilient in the face of challenges.  How to allow for the possibility of a spiritual awakening, even if you’re a complete skeptic. Have you ever gone through something that changed your entire life? I think we all have actually, whether we know it or not. But sometimes something happens and in that moment we know that nothing will ever be the same.   We don’t remember most of our lives. We remember key moments that, for whatever reason, had an impact on us. And we tend to remember where we were for big events, such as the events of September 11, 2001. Today’s guest remembers right where he was also, because he was actually on the bottom floor of the first tower that collapsed. A moment like this can make or break us. Either the pain is too much, so we use whatever we can to escape, like addiction, isolation, depression or even suicide. Or the pain is too much, so we use it as a catalyst to make positive changes that lead to a life even better than where we started. It’s always a choice. Whether or not it feels like it, it’s always a choice. But I also know that when you’re in the darkness, it’s hard to find your way to the light. So today we’re talking to someone who found his way. Our guest is Kushal Choksi who narrowly escaped the attacks of 9/11 and used his experience to find meaning and design his life around the quest for peace.  Links from the episode: Show Notes: https://mindlove.com/x66 Sign up for The Morning Mind Love for short daily notes from your highest self.  Get Mind Love Premium for exclusive ad-free episodes and monthly meditations.  Support Mind Love Sponsors  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We will learn: Why we are all so prone to addiction.  How we are losing the ability to tolerate even minor discomfort.  How to fix our pleasure pain balance. Have you ever struggled with an addiction? Or even just the urge to over-indulge?You’ve probably heard that some people are just born with the gene that makes them more susceptible to becoming addicted to things. Maybe you identify with that susceptibility, or maybe you think you’re immune to addiction. But the truth is really none of us are. The survival mechanisms in our brains make it a risk for anyone. Yes some people tend to fall deeper and harder into it, and this can be from a number of factors, including childhood trauma or other environmental factors... but still... addiction doesn’t really discriminate.And now, our technology is exploiting the very reward centers in our brain that tend to lead to addiction. So we’re all just a little bit closer to it than we’d like to admit to ourselves.So in a world of indulgence and over-consumption, how do we avoid or get ourselves out of the cycle of destruction that comes with addiction?That’s what we’re talking about today. Our guest is Anna Lembke, professor of psychiatry at Stanford University School of Medicine, chief of the Stanford Addiction Medicine Dual Diagnosis Clinic, and author of “Dopamine Nation: Finding Balance in the Age of Indulgence”. Links from the episode: Show Notes: https://mindlove.com/211 Sign up for The Morning Mind Love for short daily notes from your highest self.  Get Mind Love Premium for exclusive ad-free episodes and monthly meditations.  Support Mind Love Sponsors   Learn more about your ad choices.
