In this episode, I help us pull this concept out of the self-help books and into a tangible understanding of when we are using the mind and when the mind is using us. Continuing our conversation from previous episodes, we learn this nuance so that we may be free from compulsive thinking, move into the space between thought and discover what communing with our own Divine Beingness feels like.

Send us a text Most of our society suffers from an addiction to compulsive thinking. The mind is always reevaluating the past or strategizing for the future -a constant loop of conflict/solution - but very seldom are we ever in the present moment. Identification with the mind is the single greatest obstruction to our enlightenment. So what is identification with the mind and how do we found our way out? I want you to know that you can be free from the enslavement of the mind. It is not some distant, woo woo goal that only a spiritual guru can attain. Let's start a conversation on how you can free yourself from compulsive thinking and discover the bliss of beingness. Support the show…

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedSend us a text There is one spiritual discipline that is often considered the gateway to lasting enlightenment. Through this, we can be free from the enslavement of the overactive mind and cultivate a life of Oneness. In the last episode, I started our conversation about spirituality by asking you what is it and why does it matter. I don't think it matters if it is not tangibly and measurably improving your life. I like talking about this first step towards enlightenment because it tangibly creates little moments of heaven throughout the day and if incorporated into your daily life, will inevitably shift your consciousness.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedSend us a text Recovering addicts here in San Francisco will tell you first hand there is a direct correlation between homelessness and substance abuse. Local ex-homeless/ex-addicts will attest that 8 out of every 10 people on the street are struggling with addiction. Over 75% of unsheltered have a drug or alcohol addiction and a similar number have a severe mental health disorder. So why are we constantly marketed the idea that this is primarily a poverty problem and housing is the solution? You can build all the housing in the world and get homeless off the street so you don’t have to look at us, but if we are struggling with drug addiction and mental illness, we're just housed dealing with drug addiction and mental illness. In 2020, the death rate among San Francisco homeless doubled. They condone this behavior and even help promote it with harm reduction policies that blur the line between harm reduction and drug promotion. Caroline Shores Thrush is back and we’re giving you a recovering addict’s perspective on the “compassionate” policies she witnessed while working in the non-profit sector with transitional housing here in San Francisco.
