Episode 16: You Are Not a Machine + Real Life Magic + Surrender Avenue
Listen to this episode
Summary
In this conversation, Jacob and Scott talk about choices, about the belief systems we build around the choices we make, and how we can stop limiting what is possible for ourselves and instead open ourselves up to the boundless imagination of life. Jacob shares a beautiful story reflecting on a profound moment of surrender in his life, and the friends discuss the power of surrender versus the paralysis of resistance. Scott shares his frustrations with social media and his (likely) upcoming, difficult decision to deactivate his Facebook author and personal page. They also talk about the earthing/grounding movement, and their experiences with their respective grounding mats, as well as the positive ways in which science can support the exploration of metaphysical (and generally unexplainable) realities.

Books mentioned: The Untethered Soul, and The Surrender Experiment – by Michael Singer The Alchemist, and Aleph – by Paulo Coelho Reading: Paulo Coelho, from Aleph Signs are an extremely personal language that we develop throughout our lives, by trial and error, until we begin to understand that God is guiding us.
