In this live recording of a one-on-one session, you'll be able to join Jeff in looking deeper into the source of fear and unravelling it. Jeff has 2 months left until his life coaching and energy healing course is finished and was experiencing some fear about what will happen after this. It…

It's already OK with Chandler
In this episode, we are trying something new! Chandler was willing to have our session together recorded and shared here with everyone. What you are listening to is a live session where we unpack the internal challenges that Chandler has been experiencing. As you listen, you may find that we are...

Ep 94 - Is Effortless Living Possible?
Can life feel effortless and easy? Explore that in today's episode. As we discover all the expectations and resistance we carry within ourselves, we can start to recognise that effort doesn't exist "out there". Instead, when things feel hard and difficult - at least on an emotional level - we can...
-
Ep 92: Peace is here now
The mind - thought processes, logic, and ideation - is entirely based on what was or what might be. It cannot comprehend or recognise what is. In its preoccupation with what was and what might be, that which is now is missed. Yet that which is now is peace and calm itself. It is you. With the...
-
Ep 91: Recognising Awareness
Beyond ideas, concepts, memories, and imagination, there is just this pure presence of awareness. Thoughtless. Desireless. Free and Formless. This is what you already are - your pure essence. It sounds foreign to the degree we have come to believe that we are a limited individuals with thoughts,...
-
Ep 90: Everyday Surrender
Each moment we drop trying to push life to happen for us, we re-discover that life is here with us and for us. That what we are is inseparable from life. We can build up our surrender muscle with just small things every day. Missed the bus - could I allow that and let go into life as it is now?...
-
Ep 88: Releasing Pressure
In life, we carry around a lot of inner pressure unnecessarily. Thoughts tell us that we need it and it helps us to feel pressure. But in actuality, it simply weighs us down and makes it harder to take clear effective action. It becomes more difficult to enjoy life when we carry around all that...
-
Ep 87: Beyond Memory
Can there be problems without memory? We spend so much time bouncing around between what was and what might be. In this episode, allow yourself to drop into what is right here and now. The presence beyond memory. To explore this together visit https://nickshibanov.com/
-
Ep 86 - Freedom is what you are
Freedom is already what you are. It is not something that you have to get or earn or become. When awareness is noticed, then it is noticed that awareness is free. That freedom is awareness and that awareness is freedom itself. The word "freedom" and the word "awareness" appear different but…
more -
Ep 85 - Be what you are
Just in being what you are, noticing that you even are, cuts right through any sense of problems or worries. Right now, notice that there is a presence here that allows for reading to happen. This presence is witnessing reading happening but is itself undisturbed and uninfluenced by the reading....
-
Ep 84: Serenity
There is a calm presence behind the mental construct of memory and imagination. It is present now. The more it is noticed, the more obvious it becomes and the less can interfere with the inner sense of calm. This episode is here as a guided way to notice calm and deepen in presence. Like a warm…
more -
Ep 83: Inner Freedom Now
The mind tends to look to the future for freedom. It ties freedom to conditions, achievements, things. But right now in this exact moment, beyond the appearances of perception, the stories of conditioning, and the imagination of the mind, there is the calm and peaceful presence of freedom. In…
more -
Ep 82: The Embrace
When we embrace what is arising, then it is allowed to pass. When we resist or push back in any way, then we are holding it in place. This applies to feelings, thoughts, and life situations. Anytime we want to change something, we are resisting it. We are coming from a place of lack because we…

Ep 81: Kindness Now
Start experiencing kindness now. Sit back, relax, and enjoy these 30 minutes together as we delve deeper and dissolve criticalness and harshness in the warm embrace of kindness. This episode is designed to be easy and relaxing to listen to. You don't have to do anything. The more you relax into…
more -
Ep 80: Being Whole and Complete now
We tend to spend so much time and energy on wanting without realising that it's possible to have without wanting. Here's what I mean by that - wanting implies lack of. As an energy, wanting is a sense of lack. Whilst having is a sense of being whole and having it all. So, counter-intuitively, we...
-
Ep 79: Love them for it
"Could I love them for it?" is a powerful question I originally heard in the Sedona Method Living Love course. It really helped re-contextualise my options and help me see that it's always available to just love someone for being the way they are - regardless of what that is. Undoubtedly, this...
-
Ep 78: Truly Free Relationships
What does it mean to experience truly free relationships? What does that look like? In this episode, we will be exploring that question and unravelling what I have found to be some of the key obstacles to experiencing enjoyable and free relationships. One such obstacle being when we want to get...
-
Ep 77: Discomfort into Comfort
Let's transform discomfort into comfort. Just as we choose to let something bother us, we can also let go of being bothered by something and let it be ok. Normally though, what we do is try to push down the discomfort. Try to make it go away. Fight it. This just inflates it further and feeds its...
-
Ep 76: Awakening with Fiona
What am I? So much of our lives are lived on the surface. We focus on the specifics of the seeming problems. We focus on the stories that the mind generates. We focus on the drama. We focus on the upsets. We focus on what we want to change. Rarely do we stop and look deeper than appearances.…
more -
Ep 75: Self-loathing to Trust with Anne
In this episode, we've got an awesome conversation with Anne Murphy. Anne is one of those high-achieving folks very passionate about what she does however, that came at a price for most of her life. The high expectations also came with self-loathing until a turning point whilst back-country solo...
-
Ep 74: Exploring Awareness as Awareness
At the heart of every problem we have is "me". What tends to happen is a thought arises such as "I'm angry at Bob" and is believed in or bought into. It's sort of like believing a movie or show we are watching to be real and forgetting that it's just a show. Well, what we tend to do is forget…
more -
Ep 73: Dissolving Problems
If problems were forgotten, would they persist? A curious discovery is that problems exist only as memories of the past. At this exact moment, there is nothing to say or comment about. There is nothing to think about. Don't think about this statement too much, just pause deeply right now and…
more -
Ep 72: What do they mean?
What do people really mean by what they say to us? Is it really about us? Can it ever really be about "me"? To understand what someone means, we must contextualise what they are saying from their perception. We must see things from their state of mind. We must take into complete consideration…

Ep 71: What's it like to be you with Eric
We are back with Eric for the fourth time. Each time it's magical and some beautiful threads to pull on are revealed. Strap in for a fun playful convo and see what comes of it. Here is what I invite you to try: Let go of expecting anything from the episode, open yourself to deeply seeing the…

Ep 70: Joyfulness and playful workplaces with Johan
I met Johan in a funny way. I actually accidentally breached copyright laws, using the name "Joyfulness" for my business after forgetting to check international trademarks. Instead of telling me off, Johan found my website one day and suggested we work together. He didn't even mention that I was...
-
Ep 69: Why not be kind to you and let go?
I was watching about to watch Netflix when I noticed a feeling of pressure and discomfort. It had to do with thinking I should be doing something else. I also noticed a judgement about feeling pressured and not feeling free... I realised this was not very kind and followed the process highlighted...
-
Ep 68: Human Resilience with Andrea Stephenson
To me, Andrea embodies the resilience of the human spirit. Imagine being raised in a cult that was preparing you to be a human sacrifice. How does one recover from that? Yet for Andrea, none of her life challenges has stopped her or been seen as excuses to complain. What amazes me most about…
more -
Ep 67: Sacred Nature
A topic close to my heart. If we, collectively speaking, want to change the way we treat the earth, we must change the way we see it. Right now, it is very rare to see the earth as sacred. Few truly recognise the divinity of nature. When we are blind to the sacredness of nature and of life, we...
-
Ep 66: Life is a gift
Life is a gift. Where did it come from? Was it our own effort? Was it our achievement? Did we earn it? Or is it just a freely given gift? It's funny how surprised people are to receive a gift. We feel unworthy. We feel like we have to earn it. But if something is given to us, then it is done so…

Ep 65: Discontentment into Growth with Joseph
Let this episode speak to the truth that we don't have to settle for any excuses in our life... We can turn anything into a golden opportunity for growth if we are willing and ready...sometimes we aren't but let that not veil the truth that we always CAN. Joey is a life coach and from what I...
-
Ep 64: To Love is to Listen with Daniel Bruce Levin
Daniel lived as a monk for 10 years... He was the Director of Business Development at Hay House and played a big part in helping it grow from 3 million a year to 100 million a year... Daniel is also an author, recently publishing his book The Mosaic which looks to give the voiceless a voice and...
-
Ep 63: I exist
At this moment, what is blocking the overwhelming gratitude of realising "I am"? For most of us, our attention is restless and always fluctuating between thoughts of the past of future. Our attention rarely settles and notices that which is obvious... such as the fact that "I exist". In this...
-
Ep 62: Life re-orienting experiences with Jeff Peroutka
In this episode, we got Jeff Peroutka with us for a fun conversation about life. Jeff is 23 and runs two successful businesses, an impressive dude! But he is also a human just like all of us and that's what I really like about chatting with these awesome people. It shows us that they are just…

Ep 61: How to negate limiting beliefs
Negation has to do with an understanding that truth is independent of beliefs and that no beliefs are at all required to live in the light of truth. So then, negation says "I am satisfied only with the total and complete truth, nothing else is valuable". When only truth is valued, negation...
-
Ep 60: Anger
There is probably a lot more anger within us than we realise. If we take this to be true and it turns out to not be, then we don't really lose anything. If it turns out to be true, we are able to deal with it more gracefully and consciously. The way I deal with anger is the way I deal with...
-
Ep 59: Past Life Research
Past life research can be very helpful in re-framing feelings in the light of a deeper understanding. One can see how having this aha moment tends to be very releasing and automatically results in acceptance of a feeling as it becomes perfectly clear where it came from. In this episode, I'll just...
-
Ep 58: How I use dreams
Dreams. Memes. And time machines! What do they have in common? I don't know! But I do know that we spend a lot of time asleep in dreamland. Wouldn't it be cool if we could use that time to learn about ourselves and deepen in understanding of the human condition. Well, that's what I love to do...
-
Ep 57: Listening to Life
Listening has been something that I have had to re-learn and continue to deepen in. I've had to nurture it within myself. It's not something I was taught growing up. For me, it really took feeling like someone cared for me - that pure love of just listening with no agenda - to start caring about...
-
Ep 56: Nothing to fix
A popular perception is to view ourselves as incomplete, broken, faulty, and in need of fixing. I know this view well for that's how I saw the world for a while. It wasn't until I came across someone who loved and cared for me as I was that I saw a different way to see everything. Not as a…
more -
Ep 55: Mistakes and innocence
How many times have we chosen something that really seemed like a good idea at the time but later, turned out not to go the way we expected? We are limited to seeing things the way we see them. We choose what makes sense to us at the time and then punish ourselves for not seeing things…
more -
Ep 54: Chained by our own constructs
What blocks us from being in complete peace and happiness right now? If investigated, it is soon revealed that the only obstacle we have to deal with is our own mind; specifically all the conditioned beliefs and the associated heavy feelings that come with heavy conditioned beliefs. For example,...
-
Ep 53: What do feelings mean?
A feeling is a composition of sensations. The mind then comes in and attempts to label the experience. Stories are generated to rationalise or explain away the feeling. It's like the intellect will only allow it if it fits into the story it has about everything... So what does a feeling mean? Is...
-
Ep 52: Is it worth it?
Something happens. A feeling arises. A life situation occurs. Then the mind says "this should be different". It might say it directly. It might indirectly imply it by trying to move away from what is arising or by attempting to manipulate the feeling/situation. We tend to not question this…
more -
Ep 51: Bearing the Weight of our Choices
Every choice we make is something we have to bear the weight of. Every choice has a consequence. Some choices lead to a lot of heaviness. Other choices uplift and support us and those around us. The more inclusive the upliftment of the choices we make are, the more uplifted we all feel and the…
more -
Ep 50: Reliance on Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit uplifts me on the wings of grace. I float through life with increasing reliance on Divinity. The more I depend upon Divinity, the more ease and grace enters my life. This is an option for you as well. In this episode, I share a story that to me articulates key principles by which...
-
Ep 49: What am I getting out of it?
It's a powerful question to ask. We tend to hold onto and cling to things that we get something out of. By asking this question and being open and receptive to whatever might come-up, we empower ourselves to become aware of what it is we get, for example, out of our relationships. Often we seek…

Ep 48: The Power of Re-framing with Eric
Eric is back! This episode is golden with lots of snippets of wisdom to digest, take-in, and be with. One of the most powerful topics that interweaved the whole chat was that of re-framing. This is when we re-contextualise and re-perceive something so that we see it differently. What is…
more -
Ep 47: The pressure to do
We grow up and are taught to be someone and do something with our lives. In of itself there’s nothing wrong with this, however, in my experience it brings with it a pressure to be a productive member of society. But I like to live my life the lazy way and enjoy just sitting and watching nature or...
-
Ep 46: Structure and Spontaneity with Matt
What is the balance between structure and allowing room for spontaneity? Is there a balance? Are these two separate at all or does it just seem that way? Lot's of fun questions emerged from this conversation with Matt Rudnitsky. Vocationally Matt is a book coach that I got to know via his "write…

Ep 45: Letting go of "Getting-ness"
In this episode, I share this insight into the "getting-ness" on the ego and how after over a year of persistent prayer, contemplation, meditation, and listening to Hawkins, something that I was struggling to understand finally clicked! A great joyous moment indeed! Today, I noticed that I was...
