#130 - Hal Elrod - He Died For Six Minutes And Woke Up With A Better Way To Live

from Soulture · host Tim Doyle

Hal Elrod is the creator of The Miracle Morning and the SAVERS routine, a keynote speaker, and the subject of The Miracle Morning movie. At 20 he was hit head-on by a drunk driver, died for six minutes, broke eleven bones, and was told he would never walk again. Years later he survived a rare and aggressive cancer. He is still here, and he is at peace.Hal Elrod believes happiness is a fleeting emotional state, but peace is an ever-present one you can choose. In this conversation, we explore the five minute rule that let him accept the unimaginable, why he asked the judge for a shorter sentence for the drunk driver who nearly killed him, the Jim Rohn quote that turned a financial collapse into the first Miracle Morning, the seventh S that has to break before the other six can begin, how he gave his cancer a one hundred percent survival rate, and why the best moment of your life is always this one. It is a conversation about what radical acceptance actually costs, and what it gives back.How to Connect with Hal Elrod:Website: https://halelrod.comThe Miracle Morning: https://miraclemorning.comThe Miracle Morning Movie (free): https://miraclemorning.com/movie/Timestamps:00:00 Happiness vs. Peace07:23 A Mediocre Kid With One Exception08:43 Releasing Yourself From the Dream14:02 Radical Acceptance in the Body17:32 Forgiving the Drunk Driver19:55 Out of the Hospital, Back to Work27:13 The Healing Power of Work29:15 Leaving Cutco & Becoming an Entrepreneur33:19 The 2008 Crash37:48 The First Miracle Morning41:10 The 7th S: Breaking44:27 The Healing Power of Storytelling48:31 The Diagnosis and the 8-Year-Old's Superpower54:14 Healing Through Alignment55:34 SAVERS as a Healing Protocol1:02:59 What Chemo Does to the Brain1:08:35 The Best Moment of Your Life1:12:22 Where to Find HalSend us Fan MailThank you so much for listening.
