  • Ep 63: Zero Point - Yang Rising, Unlimited Energy, Wormholes, Sleeper Souls, and The Party of Tao
    Oct 19 2024

    As our world experiences dramatic shifts, a lot of us are finding ourselves caught up in a whirlwind of mental overload, and with excess mental energy comes a desperate to understand everything that’s going on and get to the bottom of it all; who’s right, who’s wrong, and who’s in control. Without a way to come back down, relax, and centre the mind, it becomes hard to get a grip on life and the urge to try and understand increases further. This downward spiral of attempting to solve mental problems in the mind doesn’t work, so what are the alternatives? The answer is energy. Instead of trying to think our way out, we need to feel our way forward.

    In this episode Jost and Leon get into all things energetic, from an internal experience of chi to the accessing the inexhaustible energy aether and what this means for humanity in the very near future. Jost gets into the need to have a foundational, concrete experience of chi to orient your day instead of starting in the mind, the symptoms associated with rising mental energy and the role of the Blood in traditional Chinese medicine. Jost also talks about the cost of living crisis, how to combat the overwhelmingly heavy energy of mundanity, and how to bring the mind back down to zero through practice. Of course the unavoidable subject of recent political insanity comes up, and Leon and Jost chat about crazy campaigns, censorship and the rise in debunkers. Leon talks about his recent rabbit hole with disappearing airliners, wormholes, plasma orbs, and the phenomenon of Zero Point Energy (ZPE). He also talks about facing the future instead of lamenting for the past, and Nikola Tesla’s dream of ‘annihilating distance’. Jost connects zero point energy to chi and talks about being on the cusp of major breakthroughs in understanding energy and human potential on a mass scale.

    Jost and Leon also talk about sleeper souls - those with dormant knowledge that upon activation will trigger a quantum leap in technology, and how quickly the world will change as a result. They also talk about leading physicist Nassim Haramein, how energy isn’t generated but accessed, and how understanding there is more to life than what we see in front of us is how we get creative and get busy building the new. Time to move forward by getting back to zero!

  • Ep 62: Harmony - Cymatics, Recovery, Un-Adapting, The Art of Relaxation, and Putting the ‘Chi’ in Chill
    Oct 2 2024

    There’s no mistaking it, stress, anger and frustration are on the rise as we experience an overabundance of yang and a decline in yin. But with so many different options out there to help us ‘relax’ how can this be the case? Having a drink, flopping down in front of the TV, or even hitting the gym are seen as ways to get us into a chill out mode. Without an active, mindful approach to relaxation, we can’t fully come down, combat stress and manage cortisol levels.

    In this episode Jost and Leon go into chill out mode as they talk about all aspects of recovery and relaxation, and how balance and harmony are crucial as we find ourselves increasingly on the up, and without an ability to return back down again. Jost gets into the recent ‘discovery’ by modern sports science of the importance of recovery, the connection between brainwaves and advanced recovery phases, how the lack of recovery after exercise damages the immune system, and how relaxation is not simply stopping and doing nothing but an active and engaged effort. He also discusses how increased performance expectations across all aspects of life, be it exercise, business, or creativity, require the same deep and multidimensional approaches to relaxation. Leon talks about his first experience with chi gong standing practices, the importance of relaxation in fighting, and how harmony is crucial in everything from food, to music, to film. He also talks about the need to un-adapt from dark influences, bad habits and the expectations of society.

    Jost and Leon also get into music's impact on us, from helping us to relax, to keeping us young, transporting us through time, and helping us recover from a few too many beers. They also talk about introducing musical instruments to sporting events, Leon’s aversion to ABBA, cymatics, and how to prevent wars and stock market crashes. Time to put the ‘chi’ in chill and make sure we enter the new age relaxed and ready for anything.
