You have to… journey inward.. And feel emotions of greater magnitude.. To recondition.. Those neuro associations..
There is a lot of things that we hold.. That are preventing us from connecting in the present moment.. That's related to now..
If you’re feeling anxious.. You’re living in the future.. And if you’re feeling sad.. Then you’re feeling in the past..
-------
Let's talk about Iowaska....
Yeah...so..well Iowaska is... amazing... Basically it's... I know you were sharing this story with me about how ancient tribes... these people.. were very spiritually enlightened from that group... they said that there would be a time when... you know consciousness... will really need help... so they decided to go into.... these plants.....
It's like the spirit of the plant....
Yeah...to become a spirit of the plant... to then, just help awaken... consciousness...
Wow...
Yeah...
So... you know.. I guess drinking… the.. plant medicine... people experience.. really high states of receiving for that reason... right?
Yes, exactly...because it can exude.. to this spiritual dimension... so it transcends the 3D to go into the 5D ...
Pretty much shortcuts the 4D...
Yeah.. so there is no time space reality anymore.... you've exited the Newtonian physics model... and you've entered the Quantum Field...
And what's crazy is... what might seem like stuff that's solid... this microphone is solid... and everything... you start to feel these things lose their solidity...and that's when you realize ... they truly are information...
It's all energy...
It's all energy....
It's all energy it's like... we're 99.999999999999% energy and everything is... so ... materials that...appear solid.... are actually not there still all energy... but the particles are just vibrating at a much... higher frequency... sorry.. that's like the gaseous state ... but these particles just become densified together... because they really slow down in motion... so that's like the ilusion... of you know... solid...
Yeah... it's quite.... solid.
Because it creates separation...
Yeah.. I guess it can go even deeper than that because... you may actually feel like... you know it's like why is this.. spirit teaching me... in ways that I am absolutely dispaising right now... You know.. sometimes you feel like.... oh my god... is this for real.....
Is this actually happening.... like seriously.... Yeah... I think that's where our lessons lie.... I mean... I think that... we just learned... through emotional ways as opposed to like... where we have to feel ... you know... I love this quote by Mike Angelo... its people will always forget what you said, people will always forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel... and the same goes with our neoassociation... our behaviour... self concept... all that was conditioned to feeling... and now in order to like... you know... eliminate the not so great stuff that you can really do away with.. you have to... journey inward and... fuel emotions of greater magnitude to recondition those neuro associations....
Yeah... and I guess I could describe... the journey is almost like... as a storytelling experience in a very cinematic way.... but... some of the things might be.... challenging for you to deal with like... it might actually hold its own challenges... cause you might have to come to grips with certain things... certain realities and you may have to jst.... because at the end of the day... your fear of certain realities can evoke something within you that basically... is like oh my goodness... I have to let go of this... I've been fearing this and now.... if I keep going this route I'm going to be going right into that path... you know....
Yeah...

If I were just kind of condition... to fear the unknown... but what if the unknown is where all the answers lie....
Uhmm.. and you know.. I think the unknown has a pretty good case.. cause we were just talking about... how you know... this ancient wisdom.... that dates back.. thousands and thousands of years ... shamans have seem to have a great connection. I mean of course, it's many shamans with many different personalities... and things like that... Human beings just like us.... but at the same time... you know... there is a sense of openness that came from the shamans that allow them to receive more... right? I guess...
Yeah, yeah..it is. It's like... ugh.. these shamans have such amazing personalities.... you know... they're full of sense of humor, they're full of this childlike explorative personality .. very humble .. very grounded... when you meet them.. you're in awe... wow... These shamans are amazing... it just gets you to... see spirituality in a whole new light... where its not scary anymore....
Yeah... it's quite remarkable actually.... because I think that you know... yeah.. the mind does put tricks... I mean.. you know... and when the mind does play tricks how do you handle them... how do you... in that moment... just... settle and bring yourself to a place where you can just...
Observe...
Observe.... it's like okay...
Exactly...
And then you might be able to laugh it off rather than feeling anxious....
You know.. that's the funny thing Bas.. it's like.... there's this whole misconception about.. like... oh my God... it's the ego.. oh my god.. it's so bad... it's like okay.. but creating that ego is a choice you know... so it's there for a reason and the more you try to like.... butt heads with it ... you know like... oh my gosh... negative thoughts... go away.. go away... you're like... trying to resist or fight that ego... but you have to let the guards down... I know it's so scary but... it's like... yes, okay... now you're in a state of observation.... as opposed to identification... and that's very important because... it's a huge... it just changes everything once you go from a state of identification... to a state of observation.... and now you just begin to observe... your feelings, your thoughts... without judgement... it's like... you're not labeling... this thought as good or this thought as bad... or this feeling as good, and this feeling as bad... but you're just observing..
And that I guess it can... it connects you with the present moment...
Exactly...
There is a lot of things... that we hold... that are preventing us from connecting to the present moment and that's really even now... it's the stillness that you feel... we tend to think in terms of future.... or the past.... and the past events are really like... these memories that we hold on to.... on our bodies....
I mean yeah... there is this amazing quote... that I read where... if you're feeling anxious... you're living in the future.... and if you're feeling sad... then you're living in the past... which is...
Makes a lot of sense...
Yeah..... it makes so much sense and those are.... two of the biggest mental challenges that we are going through... depression and anxiety... and that's because we've lost our connection... to our point of power.... the now...
It's like thinking you know... the anxious person might be like.... oh my god.... there could be spaceships... I might see some spaceships out there... but then you know... the person that might be more present... might be like... there could be spaceships.... it could.... thats cool.
Maybe there are.... maybe there aren't...
And...let it be.. let it be..
Yeah it's all there for a reason... it's all not there for a reason... I'm at acceptance.. complete surrender...
