Fighting Depression, from depressed to a happier self !! - Resonance Infinite - Duration: 21:52.

infinite peace resonate with you and your family we are here once again in our Sanctuary.

depression depressed people I remember I was depressed once and twice

and thrice and nobody was there to pick me up but I mentored myself out of it

and I'll tell you the secret rather list of secrets and if you're the

kind of person who has ever been depressed please watch this video and

you may just stumble upon something amazing and this is just it all my

videos that I share every Wednesdays and Saturdays is only about amazing things

that I have come across that touched my soul and this is the basic bottom line

of this channel resonance and tonight wherein I share my heart out to you guys

and this particular video is only about depression and depressed state of being

so I remember when I was depressed I used to see the four walls around me and

that was the entire world for me I would not want to get out of bed would not

have the courage to even go out and do something more than courage I would like

the energy and the enthusiasm towards anything in life and I would say to

myself gosh what am i doing and is there any future for me and somebody down the

road used to shout out and know you're finished that's just a joke you are less

depressed if you just

if you just breathe in the oxygen the life you are less depressed if you

realize the word depressed means I want you to repeat after me just repeat after

me phonetically speaking let's say the word

phonetically right and let's say together em 3 2 1 deep rest depressed

means deep rest which is you need deep rest see we all are working in this

fast-paced world we are running we are running from point A to point Z another

middle are a to Z and once we have reached said we want to reach a so

everybody surrounding you including yourself including me I was in a point

of time in life when I was in a hurry to reach nowhere pointless running towards

something we don't even know where we are going

so in the process of reaching places in the process of running to places our

body tells us don't slow down but we don't listen we keep on running and when

we keep on running our body says finally okay if you are going to run that way

I'm going to go this way and I'm going to shut down I need sleep

you are in need of deep rest and you feel depressed so in the course of life

I am busy you are busy everybody is busy can

everybody please just stop for a second and take a break oh my god is it that

difficult to pause for a second where is the time to take a break to simply pause

do nothing just chill out and simply be listen to your body to slow down

your body will give you sufficient signals the work activity of life will

keep on going it is fine to take a pause and a break every once in a while just

stop and pause and then proceed we need to understand depression is normal

depression is okay so when I was depressed I found the solution of

slowing down in the sunset being close to nature made my depression disappear

I just realized one thing when I was depressed is I have to make an

emotionally healthy choice when I made the emos the most emotionally stable and

healthy choice was to get out just simply get out and be someplace even in

solitude but someplace other than my bedroom someplace where I'm close to

myself and closer to myself and nature brings out your inner child your inner

self closer to you wherein you can dissolve the negative

blockages within you the emotional baggage that has been pent up inside you

it all dissolves in nature and that is when I started seeing sunrise and it

helped me a lot it helped me a lot to get out of depression as when you are in

nature when you are close to the Sun where you are close to the moon where

you are close to the birds hearing the chirping sounds hearing the flowers

hearing the wind you slow down you don't need to sleep too much you

don't need to stay in between the pillows too much you just need to get

out in nature that could be your Terrace that could be a garden closeby that

could be a lake or a pond it just has to be you out in the nature and when that

happens everything slows down even one are spent in park that is just what it

takes to get out of depression that is step one

are you bottling up your emotions and simply putting a cork on it and throwing

that bottle away far far away but actually what we are doing is we are not

bottling up the emotions and throwing it away

it is penetrating and bottling deep inside you once it's jam-packed the

bottle will burst and that is when things take a turn for the worse

you are less depressed if you admit that you are depressed now I see many people

who try to be tough and they are wearing this fake smile where the exterior

facade that they carry they want to show that they are very tough and they're

very happy inside of them the opposite is happening they're not very happy they

are broken down from inside something is bothering them and sometimes it is very

eminent that something is wrong with people but they still pretend to be

tough they have been these walls around them which they don't want anybody to

enter which they do not want to be broken down these people with tough

exterior are in deep trouble because that is just

going to get them into more and more depression so expressing your emotions

to the fullest is a step to be less depressed you are less depressed if you

realize depression is suppression if you suppress your feelings your emotions how

you feel you're just going to be more depressed and those energy blockages

those negative energy blockages will be very hard to unwind and let go of people

who admit they have depression are not weak taking a break taking a pause is

not the sign of weakness you have to know when to be active and when to be

passive in life and some people keep on throughout the month because in everyday

life they have added these breaks and pauses in the right time and their

lifestyle which gives them a permanent vacation which gives them the much rest

the deep rest which is needed by the body and the mind mostly the mind is

achieved daily basis and they cope up with life very well because they come

from a very stable emotionally stable base and that base is created when you

spend and indulge in dedicated time in doing something which fills your soul

emotion is energy in motion it's okay to cry it's where that was a laughter it's

okay let's try one more time it's okay to cry it's okay really okay to cry so

you see these people who are always carrying tissues and handkerchief around

them they are more likely to be less

depressed when you spend enough of these negative energies expressing them your

negative blockages will release itself and you will be a happier person you are

less depressed if you have enough of tryptophan if you have sufficient

tryptophan every day you'll be more happy tryptophan has been known for its

qualities to pull a person out of depression now what are we talking about

what is tryptophan I believe most of us have not even heard about it yet

tryptophan is an amino acid which is responsible for synthesizing serotonin

serotonin is the happy chemical in your brain which is responsible for your

happy mood the feel-good factor is the serotonin chemical which again gives

further raise to melatonin which is this chemical which induces perfect sleep if

you have an imbalance sleep cycle if you have an imbalance in your sleep cycle

that is a warning sign you need to raise your melatonin now tryptophan is an

amino acid but I say take up the vegan challenge eat healthy eat vegetarian

food now I am NOT opposing non-veg food but tryptophan is something which is

found them huge quantities in vegetarian food like chia seeds flax seeds sunlight

a lot of a lot of serotonin and melatonin boost is going to happen if

you see sunrise or sunset or if you are out in the Sun enough just feel the

wrong light of Sun at your face that would do enough and that would do

wonders to pull you out of depression being in nature eating healthy food

introducing a lot of tryptophan in your diet I'm a fan of chocolate I eat a lot

of dark chocolate and raw cacao now raw cacao you can search the web is filled

with it they deliver it at your doorstep it can be found in any grocery store

around and just YouTube is filled with recipes of cacao these are few

ingredients if you introduce in your lifestyle not only will they help you

boost your immunity boost your metabolism boost your happy chemicals

they will pull you out of depression you are what you eat when you introduce

these elements in your diet what happens is you are getting a boost of energy

this sun boost of energy within you eliminates eliminates that dark sunken

place where you usually find yourself when you are depressed and you may be

needing deep rest but not anymore when you've introduced enough of

tryptophan in your diet and your body is making sufficient serotonin and

melatonin you're having happy chemicals working out for you you are having deep

restful sleep and mind you deep restful sleep does not mean long hours of nap it

could be 6 hours of sleep and you could still be very restful and be very

energetic the next morning it's simply a matter of choosing the most emotionally

stable choice at the moment now I as I would like to repeat I have found

getting out of my confined four walls was the right choice to make and

escaping into the nature I would be as on my Terrace and just lying down

and viewing the vastness of the sky and that would make my problems seem so

small and after some time vanish and I was mesmerised by the vastness of the

nature the vastness of the sky and that is just me discovering something which

each of us can fast you escape into nature you truly see time stop

everything slowing down the noise going on in your

brain and your mind and body slowing down you will find solution to all your

questions once you relax once you pause once you take a break you can prioritize

what is important because being depressed impacts your body impacts your

well-being if you're not mentally stable emotionally stable you're not going to

be able to execute the difficult things and we feel staying under pressure might

help but on the contrary staying relaxed helps you execute the most difficult of

activities in life and every once in a while in the entire 24 hour journey that

you make every day take a propos have a break and come to

yourself find the switch off button and just dedicate that time to yourself you

have to build your own sanctuary wherein you are the most natural and wherein you

don't have to be pretending to be something else rather than yourself we

are chasing paychecks in places we are not meant to be with people we are not

meant to be we are in relationships with this person

who we are not even supposed to be who does not gel with us who's draining the

life energy inside us every day every waking moment you feel insecure you feel

fearful but still you're somehow trying to make that work it's not going to work

out don't try to make your life so perfect on the outside that you fail to

make things correct inside you cannot lie to yourself the emotions inside you

do not lie on your face your heart will tell you that it's not happy and when

that happens that is a call for action take action when you're inside is

dreaming do not put on a fake smile outside I tell you to cancel the plans

where your heart does not tell you to go there is a party your friend has called

and you can't say no because they might not be friends anymore with you if you

cancel that is not your real friend my friend and you have to be your authentic

self if you agree with yourself if you accept yourself 100% love yourself 100%

listen to yourself 100% and do as your heart commands you will be out of

depression in no time so delete all the trash from your life and make space for

yourself I have always respected such people who have spoken the harder mind

without caring what anybody else would think if you accept yourself 100% and

love yourself 100% you come in the divine alignment your body's well rested

you make choices in life that you are comfortable with and you do not push

yourself or force yourself or pretend to be somebody who you are not you not try

to fit into system which is not built for you you're

less depressed and you're out of depression in no time

I believe energy is contagious would you believe the same energy is contagious

and I try to surround myself with people who are uplifting in nature one fine

morning you wake up with all the negative people around you you march

into the day with more negative people around you then sometimes you feel like

covering your ears and passing by when that happens run

do not stay there fill your life with positive people try and find these

people who lift you what happens is the positive energy of the person and with

lifts me up my positive energy lifts them up now when we collide and interact

with each other when we hit each other a massive positive energy generates and

what happens now is we are lifting each other up and when we start laughing

there is no stopping us and when you surround yourself with people

who fill your brain and soul with positive thoughts positive vibes at

least give you peace you are likely to be less depressed there is a lot of

awakening happening in this world currently a lot of people are reaching

higher levels of consciousness and a lot of these are awakened people they feel

alienated because you're surrounded with fake negative people and you ask

yourself oh my god where is everybody when I click on and then you meet

someone and then you meet someone and you thought where and you start thinking

where were they the entire time and it's not about how you look it's not about

what you wear it's not about how your body is is not about what other people

think about you it's not about the judgement of other people about you it's

how you feel inside that matters the most in life and that is what determines

the quality of life accept yourself 100% love yourself 100% and you will be less

depressed eventually life will start to feel like life again when you've done

these things come back scream it's so good to be alive

A Conversation With My Future Self? One Month Anniversary Edition - Duration: 4:37.

You're going to be seeing a lot more of me.

Possibly even too much of me if that's possible.

Hello, it's me from New Year's Eve.

You're all a month deep into 2019 but I have some unfinished business.

To give myself some peace of mind and ensure that I won't die in the first month of the

year, I am going to attempt to summon my future self – same way I did all those years ago

when I was 12.

12 year old me: Yessss?

Jeremiah 1: I'm not talking to you…this time.

12 year old me: Eh.

Jeremiah 1: Okay, so it's been a while since I've done this so I'm a little rusty.

But, it's what people expect of me, so I should be doing more of it anyway.

Okay.

Hello Jeremiah?

I think that's all I need to do.

Come in, Jeremiah.

Hello.

Jeremiah, are you there?

Over.

Jeremiah 2: Hello?

Jeremiah 1: Yes!

Are you there, Jeremiah?

Jeremiah 2: Yes, I'm here.

Jeremiah 1: Great, it worked!

Jeremiah 2: Yes, seems it did.

Jeremiah 1: Which Jeremiah are you then?

Jeremiah 2: What?

Jeremiah 1: What's today's date?

Jeremiah 2: Take a guess.

Jeremiah 1: Oh.

Well, you can't be too much further along from me.

Could it…

Is it New Year's Eve?

Jeremiah 2: It's New Year's Eve.

Jeremiah 1: Oh.

Are you before or after me?

Jeremiah 2: No idea.

Jeremiah 1: Well, what time do you have?

Jeremiah 2: Ah, it's 11:58pm.

Jeremiah 1: Same here.

Jeremiah 2: Ah, that explains it then.

You created a time rift.

Jeremiah 1: A what?

Jeremiah 2: A time rift.

You split us into two streams and we're running independently now.

Jeremiah 1: What does that mean?

Jeremiah 2: You should understand this just as well as I do.

Jeremiah 1: Well, why don't I?

Jeremiah 2: I dunno, maybe it divided our brain up as well, which would be a bummer.

Jeremiah 1: What's a bummer?

Jeremiah 2: Right, we need to fix this.

Jeremiah 1: Okay.

How?

Jeremiah 2: Well, you did it.

You should figure it out.

Jeremiah 1: All I did was say "Hello Jeremiah, are you there?"

Jeremiah 2: Then try saying "Goodbye Jeremiah, go away."

Jeremiah 1: Alright.

Goodbye Jeremiah, go away.

Jeremiah 2: I'm still here.

Jeremiah 1: Shit.

Jeremiah 2: I guess I have no choice but to go live my life independently.

In a fully populated separate world.

Look, word of friendly advice.

Don't ever do this again.

Jeremiah 1: But it's what people expect of us.

Jeremiah 2: It's dangerous.

Jeremiah 1: Well, nothing bad happened last time we did it.

Jeremiah 2: Really?

Nothing bad happened?

Jeremiah 1: Lots of bad things happened but not because of our video.

Jeremiah 2: We don't know that.

The point is it's not worth the risk.

Jeremiah 1: You think…we broke the world?

Jeremiah 2: I'm saying, judging from this, that we can't rule anything out.

Look, I gotta go.

Jeremiah 1: Wait! 12 year old me: Don't you realize you're

kinda messing up time?

Trump: BUILD THAT WALL!

BUILD THAT WALL!

Well, it's been a very productive day for me, and I'm happy about that, but I may

have inadvertently created a pocket universe and caused untold damage, so in light of today's

eventsmaybe it's best if I end this.

It's almost midnight, it's probably too late to join the celebrations.

Anyway, I'm sure you'll hear from me again.

An older, hopefully wiser me.

One that'll treat his audience right.

Until then, I bid you a very fond adieu.

Self-guided Moose & Caribou Hunting in Alaska: Episode 11 - The Final Reflections - Duration: 18:36.

Morning. It's day 11 and here we are in the cook tent

There's Ian looking marvelous and happy. We're done. Cole came in last night

He fetched the meat out. We've got the rack out, the moose is completely boned out on

top of the ridge. We've done it all. We've self packed, self-guided

Beaten ourselves to death in the Alaskan wilderness. But we've done it and it's

been the hell of an experience, it's been absolutely fantastic

We're just chilling today, just gonna get everything packed up ready to go in the morning

Coles gonna pull us out so there we go. We'll speak to you in the morning just for

plane goes but pretty much lazy day today

Catch you in a bit.

And so it's the penultimate day before we finally leave

camp and fly into town. So we're planning a little rest and relaxation which I

think we deserve after two pretty epic days up in the mountains. Of course

yesterday we will full-on packing out the moose and rack, returning pretty late

to camp and enjoying a restful night. But my bones are weary and my joints are

still aching. I can certainly feel that we put in a monumental effort over the

past couple of days. But now it's done and we're just putting our feet up and

enjoying this beautiful landscape.

In all honesty, we're both a bit emotional that we're leaving tomorrow

It's our last night in paradise

but after this incredible adventure we're also looking forward to heading

home to see our loved ones and share our stories

Steve's already started packing

and we believe Cole is planning on collecting us pretty early tomorrow

morning at around 8:30 a.m. and we should be back in civilization by mid-afternoon.

The scenery here is fantastic, it's just a great place to be

even if you're not hunting. But we're not quite finished yet. I still have the

Air Arms s510 TDR and my small game license

I'm going to head out again this afternoon and see if we can bag some

ptarmigan and have some fresh meat ready

for dinner tonight, rather than the diet of sausage and mountain house that's been

keeping us alive the past couple of weeks

These pesky ptarmigan have been getting the better of me all trip and it doesn't

look like that's gonna change anytime soon

They love the patches of willow in these sheltered valleys close to the creeks

and I can hear them chattering to one another as I approach

But alas, nothing sits long enough for me to make a clean shot

I take the opportunity to glass for a few moments more to see if I can spot

that monster bull we saw a few days ago. I'd like to tip my cap to him one more

time before I leave. He was a worthy adversary and I'm confident we'll be

reunited in the future

And so, it's mountain house once more, but as usual there's no complaint from the wild man

So, it's day 12 of our epic hunting adventure to Alaska and it's been a

pretty epic hunt. It's been absolutely fantastic hasn't it. From start to finish.

With the weather everything that's been really good

You can't expect this consistent good weather here in Alaska. Last year, you

know, we were rained in four or five days at a time and then once an animal was

down it rained again and it kind of sucked the soul out of you. But when you

finished, it was a huge accomplishment. Now here's been slightly different

because the weather hasn't really worked in our favor has it

Well, as we both know

a bit of rain does bring the animals out they want to move they want to get dry

This time it's been completely different. It's really cold at night and then

really warm in the day. The temperature swing has been quite vast from night to

a day. So the animals have been coming out in the morning for about half past

ten as soon as the Sun cleared the mountain then the feeling well I'm a bit

too warm with a big heavy coats on and bump, back in the willow again. So, it's been it's

been quite hard work that in that respect hasn't it?

Yeah, but in some ways you've got to get the measure of both types of weather

because we've actually been able to hunt

all 10 days that we've been here which is unusual. Normally we're

sat in the tent telling jokes and stories and making fun of each other

We still have done a bit of that but mainly in the evenings. But I have to say this

has been magnificent scenery that the places that Cole has put us to hunt have

been fantastic we've seen animals every day wherever we've been. Sometimes it's

not animals were hunting. We've seen a lot of grizzly bear about at the last place

Three caribou, two of which we took. And here the valley is alive with moose you

know, it's just about everywhere. Now when we came last year we were

being guided. Some of the decisions are made for you. But this year, everything

we've decided - what equipment were gonna bring, the pilot we're going to use, of

course, he's chosen spots for us as he should do because he knows what the

animals are. But we planned our own stalks, we've got into our own animals

Steve's butchered, I packed out or we packed out together and every step of this

journey has been our own adventure which has been quite exciting

Everything from the to the time that you go to bed, it's your

decisions where you go, which direction we hunt in, which valley we look at

today. It's been a revelation hasn't it?

Yeah and it just goes to show that all

of the skills that you know back home from deer hunting in the UK or from

the other adventures we've been on around the world

everything's applicable to this sort of environment. You just got to plan well in

advance. Don't take anything for granted, don't be complacent. Get yourself in

shape, make sure the equipment's right and make sure that you're taking

every precaution when you're going out into the world this is a dangerous place

not only the conditions can they change but there are animals out here that bite

as well. Particularly late in the evenings when you're going out for your ablutions

don't leave anything to chance and if you respect Alaska it will repay

you and it has done for us on this trip.

Well it has done on two trips I think, both trips

Especially this one, with being ourselves on our own. It's been

changing really you know?

Life changing, I'd agree with that. We've also picked out a few

bits of equipment here. Now, last time we came up we went through all of the

equipment were going to take with us and that was pretty much the same you'll see

very similar clothing but there's been a few additions this year they've kind of

changed things for us. I'm just gonna run through those with you to let you know

some of the things you might consider if you're planning your ownself guide a

trip to Alaska. So Steve what you got there?

First of all, my knives. These are

knives that I work with back at home, so I bought one boning knife, two siding

knives which have been absolutely fantastic for me. They've made my job so

much easier as butchering the animals, skinning it, preparing it. The next big

thing has been frame pack from Barney Sports Chalet. Frontier Gear of Alaska

Last year I had a Mystery Ranch Pack, we both did. It's really good packs for what we

did but when we've been packing out a way to pack you know these have been

brilliant they fit them for you in the Sports Chalet there. The guy takes your

measurements and he makes sure it fits properly around your hips and your

shoulders and the bag comes off as you have seen in the films so you can strap

the meat to the frame you're not carrying the extra weight of

the bag and it's just more secure and solidly robust for when you're walking

those miles from that heavy heavy weight. It has made a big difference to me

especially. And the third thing is disco cube. This has been a lifesaver. When we've

been in the tent at night and Ian has been telling the same stories with

different twists as long as we go. We can put some music on and just sit there and

drown out the noise. It's been absolutely brilliant

The pack I totally agree with

you know I've taken my pack off and I've used it to get racks out, so it gives you

the best of both worlds. The carrying capacity of the pack itself particularly

gear in there, but also, when you kill an animal and bringing out meat on the bone

having that pack to be able to tie things to is great. Steve, obviously, you work your

magic with your knives anyways. I probably wouldn't bring such a

sophisticated selection of knives. They allowed you to work so quickly on the

beast that I could just keep packing so for me it was what really useful to be

able to get up the mountain put another load back on and get

straight back down again. And yeah, I totally agree. That disco cube, it just

lifts the atmosphere, particularly when you've had a tough day a bit of music

going on in the background, I'd agree with all the Steve's. Now, for me

it's been a little bit different. So I've done all the cooking here. We invested in

this Jetboil Genesis space camp system. Which is got a pot and a frying pan

dual burner and rather than just eating mountain house or using those Coleman's

Stoves, which are quite heavy, this has been amazing. We've only used just towards the

end of the two gas bottles since we've been here which is coming on for two

weeks. Now last year was, with the old Coleman stove that Tony was using, I think we've

got through something like twelve gas bottles which was horrendous.

So it's really efficient, it boils really quickly. Just kept mixing things

up which was pretty good. This also folds into one compact carrying case

so highly recommend that from Jetboil. It also means you can take substantially

less gas which is also quite a lot of weight. Which we'll know for next time.

It's of course in addition to the Jetboil Sumo. We've only used one and

a half tins of gas on that too so very very efficient stuff.

The second is this Hawke Endurance ED

20-60x85 spotting scope. Without this I don't

think we'd have been out of plan for any of our stalks this has got such a pin

sharp sight picture we've got some great footage for the digi-scoping adaptor

It really has been a game changer for me in terms of us being able to see the

landscape, being able to pick out the animals. Do they have two brow tines, three

brow tines? Looking at changes in body size and type, particularly the two big bulls

we saw crossing the valley there. Also looking into valleys and seeing the

difference between this Ridge and that Ridge so you can see how deep the valley

is beyond you could plan your stalk. And this Vanguard lightweight tripod once

again really stable and it perfectly complements that Hawke spotting scope so

this has been a game changer for me and you've seen me

over the course of the two weeks looking through that quite a lot

And then this Garmin InReach Explorer

Now this is basically our safety device. It's a

satellite communication device but more than that it allows you to plot points

on the map so you can track your journey so when you've been out stalking it

shows you exactly where you've gone. It tracks waypoints every two minutes so

people back home can see where you are on the mountain. It's allowed us to plot

camp observation points where we've taken animals and then we can track our

way back following our path. Of course, as you've seen, we have tags with

a little colored tape the trails as we've gone out. Also it's very handy

having this so you know exactly where the animals are particularly the dark

you can get back to camp you can't see it a long way a very useful bit of kit

and it's allowed me to stay in touch at home so I could send a couple of

text messages every day, let my wife know where I am and then just stay in touch

The weather forecasts on this has also been absolutely spot-on. Refresh it

every day it gives you every two to three hours a new weather forecast and

it's been pretty much accurate if you're looking for some forward communication

we are out in the wilderness, Garmin Inreach, I can highly recommend that

Last but not least, I have to say a big shout out to this. Which is my

Sauer 404 Synchro XT C. It's the carbon stock version and the Hawke Endurance 6-24x50 scope

Now, this combination has been amazing

I like the long-range centerfire reticle. It allows you different aim points and

you just need to tweak it on the magnification to make sure it suits your

ammunition. It's been lightweight, it's been compact, it's been dropped a few

times. Steve actually used my rifle to break his fall and we're coming down

packing out the other day and it still shoots straight. When you are

packing a heavy load of meat you've got to take your rifle to protect yourself

from grizzly bears. It only weighs in about 6 pounds in total so it's the

perfect mountain hunting rifle, combined with a long range hunting scope that's

got really good crisp optics. We've got lots of equipment here

But the most important thing mate has been your company.

It really has been a pleasure hunting with you

And you yet again! We make a great team. I know you can come on your own

but it's great to share it with somebody. It's a sense of shared

achievement. Things get tough and things get tired and I've had times this week

where I found it rough. Steve picks me up and vice versa and this is an

opportunity that you have to share with somebody to really truly pass on just

how magnificent it is. So I can highly recommend to anybody who's looking at

planning your own hunt. If you are from outside America, you'll need to register with a guide

Once again, thanks ever so much Steve. It's been amazing spending the week with you

It has been a good one. Do take the opportunity to get yourself up here and

experience and Alaska's wilderness hunting at its very best

Cole arrives on time and we start packing our little kingdom into the plane

It's imperative that we recognize the importance of choosing the right bush pilot

No matter how good a hunter you are, if you're dropped too far from the game or in

areas that make it impossible to reach your quarry, you won't be successful

Cole spends months scouting for the very best hunting areas to ensure his clients have

the very best chance of success

It's with a heavy heart that we leave this magnificent place for another year

Whilst it might sound a little melodramatic, this extraordinary

landscape has provided what can only be described as life-changing experiences

for two ordinary boys from Derbyshire. In a little over 12 months we've harvested

no fewer than 10 big-game animals. Including four caribou, two black bear

two grizzly bear and two spectacular trophy bull moose. It's an achievement

that few will have a match, if at all.

As we finally approach civilization, I take

a few moments to close my eyes and remember some of the highlights of our

adventure and the special moments that made this our greatest ever hunt

Souvenirs

And he says Wildy's already offered.

Offered what?

He said to rub your feet

I said 'Do you know how I know that's a lie?'

Ans he said 'Cause it's Wildy'

You've got another one here- Oh no, it's just a dirty mark

It's okay, I'll sweat it out

Have a wash mate, have a wash.

Onward Guys! Onward!

That seemed like that could have gone wrong

I thought about it twice and then I thought 'I gotta go'

How's my hair looking?

Beautiful

I struggled a bit this morning

Hard work

Those drugs are kicking in though

Have you ever tried talking to you?

Well, you don't talk to me, you talk at me and over me.

There is a difference

Is that a bear? [Steve Laughs]

Binoculars!

You're not filming are you?

Yeah

Oh No!

So give us a clap

[Laughs] And whenever you're ready

On the optics, which help having increased light- [clears throat]

But it does have dielectric coating

[JAMES] When you're ready

So it's been a pretty busy day

Wildy and Blades here have been busy on the knives

So well done James on spotting your first moose

We're gonna bring you more often I think

[IAN] Maybe

[STEVE] Perhaps

[JAMES] Okay, give us a clap

[laughs] and away you go

[IAN] Did you see how fast that was? Are you sure that wasn't a mosquito?

[STEVE] Anticipation now mate

[STEVE sighs]

Okay then, SausageFest!

Afro Cheese!

Well, I think we go down there because I don't think it's as far as you think it is

When we get onto that nole over there, we're gonna be halfway to it

[Steve] Really?

[IAN] Yeah

[Ian] I'm sick of all these moose, Wildy. I'm sick of them.

I love moose hunting

I love moose hunting

[COLE] You can just put it in a bag, Mark. If you've got a Ziploc or something

[Steve] Put it down your trousers!

[COLE using an English accent] Put it down your trousers!

[Steve] There you go! You got it!

[IAN] Tell you what, you can go straight to Australia

[EVERYONE LAUGHS]

[IAN] Well, I fit in Steve and James fits in me so it's like a tri-way spoon

[Ian] It's nice

[IAN] You should try it, you know, if your kind of bored

I hope you enjoyed our adventure as much as we enjoyed sharing it with you

but don't worry this is not the end for we'll be back again soon

And one of you may be joining us

[Steve] Aww, are we hugging? Oh look!

you

The Fusion of Neuroscience and Self-Cultivation, with Gabriel Axel Montes | EDB 157 - Duration: 26:15.

Hi, I'm Dr Hackie Reitmann, welcome to another episode of exploring different brains, we

have with us today Gabriel Axel Montez and he's going to introduce himself because what

he's doing is very very interesting stuff with neural axis and all the other things

he's doing. Welcome Gabriel, thanks for coming, why don't you introduce yourself to our

different brains audience properly.

Thank you hackie it's a pleasure to be here, thanks for the warm introduction. So, yep

my name is Gabriel Axel Montes and I'm a neuroscientist and educator, and I work with people helping

them to understand their brains and how they function and how that influences their life

in various ways and how it can effectuate change in various ways; so right now I'm

completing my PhD which is based at the University of Newcastle in Australia and before that

I did a masters degree in neurobiology. Before I did that I did my bachelor degree in Neurobiology

and Anthropology, and along the way I became interested in the mind, not only from the

perspective of the third person objective, meaning like what can you figure out about

the brain in the laboratory. I also became interested in the brain from the perspective

of introspection and the first person perspective; the eye, the experience of consciousness as

the ocean of experience. So I decided to go into that for basically the purposes of exploration,

well-being, Health etcetera, and I turned my experience into a lab, an experiment and

that's how… I am where I am today which is weaving the first person experience of

the brain and the third person experience of the brain.

Now is that we're calling the fusion of Neuroscience and self-cultivation practices?

Correct, yes. I refer to the general spectrum of mind/body practices that involve going

inward and working with your mind and your body in a certain way, I refer to those generally

speaking as self-cultivation practices, because you're cultivating like a gardener, the

self.

Tell us about Neural Axis.

Sure. So Neural Axis is basically the the umbrella term for everything that I I do;

from research to education, to working with people to consulting on various things including

how to incorporate neuroscience and neuro-scientific inspired thinking into a workflow, a process,

a company's kind of culture Etc. to consulting an artificial intelligence based projects

and how that can evolve with a fusion of self-cultivation and neuroscience. Neural Axis was named that

way because basically it's a reference to the neural axis, the spinal axis of the body

that connects the organs and the brain etcetera, so it's kind of a catch-all term for everything

I'm involved in it's an evolving beast.

(chuckles) it's a little overwhelming to someone like myself even though I have an

MD, I'm completely ignorant of this stuff. I like to think I'm not stupid but I'm pretty

ignorant of… because it actually, conceptually, can actually get into the fusion if you will,

or the merger of artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and what's going on in our

brain.

Yeah, absolutely. it's… I view my body and self cultivation practices as the sort

of internally generated technology if you will it's like an ancient or perennial technology

is better said. Were constantly editing our experience, that said there have been people

that have formally gone through systematic processes of editing and facilitating, enhancing

their experience manipulating it in various ways. So I view that as sort of a perennial

technology, that it goes back as long as humans have been around at least. And then I see

things like virtual reality, AI as external technology in the way that we typically think

of technology today. So, there's different ways of actually going in there and Shifting

the way we think whether it's introspectively through first person experience, or through

the technological means; by going in there either having a girl in her face and her neural

implants whatever that actually edits the brain or experience, or having virtual reality

which basically Works through manipulating the… some corium of experience such that

the mind is affected in this very synchronized way, it's like having a puppeteer pulling

the different puppet strings: smell, sight, taste, etcetera virtual realities mostly starting

now with Sight but eventually things will get more and more advanced where we have…

close to full immersion and in something where feels like you're really there. and the Brain

as a tricky way of doing that to you can an amplify one or two senses just enough to really

convince your whole brain that you're actually somewhere, even if you really think about

one sense in particular you can tell that you're not, so the brain has very tricky multi-sensory

mechanisms and by the way it integrates some that make things that virtual reality possible

today even though the technology is quite franklin. Still in it's infancy.

If our viewers in our different brains audience or people like myself say, "boy, this is

great stuff. I want to become his client." Who are your clients and what do they sign

up for, and how do they know to contact you?

sure so one of the things that I do is I work with people individually. Depending on the

nature and the need and the…. I wouldn't say the urgency but you know the nature of

the problem in general or concern so I- because of the self-cultivation work I've done, I've

become quiet perceptive of kind of subtle flows of the mind and there are certain ways

to work with people that can catch some ways of thinking earlier before they become full-blown

problems. Or sometimes if there is a full-blown issue in the person's life, that they can

work backwards to kind of like the common denominators at the root of their emotional

brain, that can be shifted and they can therefore sort of change the way a person thinks. a

lot of this work can be done just from a very secular point of view, just thinking about

emotions, psychology, cognition, drives subconscious messages that we've received and we interact

with. the radius of that sort of approach to also something that many people would consider

more spiritual, it just depends on the languaging that a person likes to use. It's not entirely

necessary talking so-called spiritual terms, it's just about what works for a person.

So, to answer your question I work with a lot of clients individually, the easiest way

to contact me is through my website the contact form, and I also work with larger clients

so one example is a recent one that I've been working with called singularitynet and that

which is a- basically a blockchain artificial intelligence platform, so this was part of

the wave of the whole cryptocurrency boom and I work with them to develop the… integration

of how non what I call non-ordinary consciousness interfaces with artificial intelligence and

Neuroscience kind forecasting the future of artificial general intelligence and start

creating some road maps to how to possibly get to building a better artificial intelligence

based upon insights into the human mind which are based in scientific literature of Psychology

and Neuroscience and also things that are ahead of data so to speak which is basically…

ways of- ways of the mind Works that have not necessarily received a whole lot of scientific

funding in the pipe in the in the academic institutional pipelines to basically know

we know this for sure we don't know this for sure but something more in the realm of observations

based upon practice that I've had with myself with client to students over the years that

give me some insight as to how the mind works that I feel fairly confident in making recommendation

and suggestion while also being fully aware that this is ahead of the data, meaning the

science hasn't really caught up with it yet. But from what I've seen both we have

seen this looks like a likely way to go so I work with smaller clients, bigger clients,

coaching whether it's Executive coaching life coaching, to kind of more organizational flows

that align with how the brain works, so part of my thesis…

Can you talk about some of the anatomical correlates that you've become aware of in

the studies that have been going on? If there are any.

First of all I want to say that there is a-some interesting philosophical implications that

I've been brought forth by scientists and philosophers about the location ISM in the

brain so the way we view brain is very highly conditioned upon the technology we use to

investigate it and probe it. So we've already kind of in more in the frothy leading edge

of the discipline of Neuroscience, we've already kind of seen that yes there are certain areas

of the brain that we want to say do this and this area does that but we've already seen

over the past decade or two that there are neuro-circuitries that transcend, if you will,

the discrete brain regions on a three-dimensional you know volumetric level, and it's a lot

more complex and yet we still like to talk about brain regions, and then there's- because

it's useful you know and then there's also the ways that different brain regions connect

and how they influence each other so functional connectivity and there's different ways of

describing that, the way they give feedback to each other, and the the kind bi-directional

street, and then or where they take a detour through another part of the brain before going

there and what that part of the brain does to that signal, Etc. So I only give you this

as a precondition because a lot of these brain region localizationalist views, what they

mostly serve to do is to to verify "oh, there is something going on with that phenomenon

that that's why we study it." It also gives us a sense that we can grasp some thing that

is that is actually meteorically far more complex than we can even imagine as the brain

is as a complex system is often compared to the level of complexity of the physical universe.

So it's almost like having a microcosm in the brain of the macrocosm that we are apart

of. So I always like to say that in general because the studies are shifting all the time.

someone says "the amygdala's responsible for fear" and then we know that I'm- we

learned that we could still say that even today, but we've also learned there are

different parts of the amygdala, that respond to negative emotional stimuli in one way or

maybe it's not always about fear, but it's also about just… emotional valence the kind

of emotional profile we give to something before it becomes out right fear so things

like that are- so for example one of the things that mindfulness meditation it was just the

most common study because it's been able to be systematized in the form of MBSR mindfulness-based

stress reduction. So it's been very clinically studied and we can see that my voice meditation

changes the structure of a meditator. first we saw that meditators and non-meditators

had the different brain structural differences we saw that people going over course of mindfulness-based

stress reduction program over the course of 8 weeks could actually change their brain

and then- now we've seen that or short bit of meditation or talking just like hours to

even- 4- 48 hours a few different studies here can change your brain through meditation

so a lot of these studies are our have been done Sarah Lazar at Harbor University is one

of the most popular- Britain wholesale who is also who is part of her lab as well now

living in Europe, also a famous researcher in this area; so we have structural changes

in the brain. Now, what kind of structural changes? Different societies various have

shown that the amygdala the way it responds to emotional stimuli changes as a result of

these awareness techniques like a mindfulness-based stress reduction Etc. There's also different

forms of meditation affect different parts of the brain differently. For example. you

have non-dual meditation, so non-dual contemplation is considered one of the simplest and most

challenging forms of- of… cultivation you can say or attainment, achievement, states,

it's not really a state, its just awareness of reality, the non dual nature of reality,

so it's a practice in different traditions in tibetan tradition is called dzogchen and

this particular tradition affects an area of the brain called precuneus, so different

types of meditation affect different parts of the brain. Also the coda putamen areas

of the which are functionally part of the limbic system are also linked to intuitive

perception abilities. so if you like talking about simple mindfulness, non dual meditation,

intuitive capabilities, and then you have things like Mantra meditation where you're

repeating a sound over and over like 'Om', and letting that resonate in your body and

your mind and your emotional systems. All these things have varied effects. No one has

even begun to study the body and physiology. Now… different types of meditations, different

types of brain regions, different types of brain circuits, then you have the process

of basically meditating, so when you start doing a practice such as meditation or whatever

where you have to focus- there's initial attempt to focus noticing what's going on, the attempt

to focus focusing, getting distracted and then realizing your distracted and then shifting

back into awareness. That has it's own little sort of roulette wheel of of brain signals

that brain regions that are activated so normally deciding to focus involves your prefrontal

regions and your maintenance of focus involves prefrontal activation. excuse me activation

of focus then maintaining it brings online not mutually exclusively but brings Online

the striatum which is apart of the limbic system which helps to sustain the attention

on what is what you've the state you've gotten into. and then at some point you'll get

distracted, and then you'll use your prefrontal cortex again to pull you back into where you

want to go. So for example meditation for the breath is off off and use of pointer Focus

you can also use a visual aid or certain sounds as points of focus and the effects will all

be very slightly different so I'll pause there that there's there's much much more to talk

about and explicate with regards to examples of how the brain is affected but the brain

regions are important to anchor people's understanding in neuroscience and from there you have to

go into "Okay so what are we going to do about it" and that gets more into psychology.

And people's intuition and emotions etc. so..

That was a fantastic journey you just took us on, that was wonderful!

I hope it was a specific enough

No it was, it was fabulous. What is the website that our audience can go to, what is your

website to learn more because I'm sure everyone's going to want to know more about what you're

doing here.

Yeah sure, no problem. so my website is gabrielaxel.com, I also have another domain which is currently

linked to that one neuralaxis.org but gabrielaxel.com is fine. and yeah, the website is something

that's a work-in-progress I've been mostly focused on finishing my doctorate for the

past few years so what you'll see most maintained on my website is my academic page which describes

my academic interests directions, goals, grants, Publications Etc. that's kind of the most

up to date stuff and part of what I'm going to do with my PhD work is deliver this framework

that I mentioned earlier kind of explicate that in the form of something formal like

a course, and an online course. I also teach other things in the realm of purely self cultivation,

neurophysiological integration processes that deal with people subjected experience but

that have effects on their neurophysiology and neuroendocrine systems for basically to

use a metaphor, rewiring the nervous system in a way that more expensive states of being

and makes a lot of aspects of life and further self cultivation much more easy much easier

more integrative and fruitful. So that's based on a few different systems at the syncretic

system what is a general neurophysiological integration process so that's kind of what

I do on the one hand and then there's my PhD work on the other hand that's the framework

I had mentioned earlier, so I have these two things that I feel are the- the first tools

that empower… people the most I have found. I really like to see people get off to a start

in their life that makes sense for where they are for their Walk of Life and something that's

quite broad enough or it can apply to different people. So you can go to my website, you can

contact me, you can refer to self cultivation, or the neuroscience framework and ask me a

question, and that's that's how we can begin and from there, I basically maintain contact

with people until the course is ready to come out. So I expect to see that in the near future,

the very near future.

Talk for a bit about strong social relationships and the lack thereof.

Yes. The way I see it a lot of the mental illness crisis that are present in our modern

world are in part caused by the separation of people into various real property allotments.

humans involved in Village settings with a relatively small number of people, you growing

up as a kid, exposed to similar faces all the time and you form deeper relationships,

people help each other, with people it doesn't work in the same way our current Society Works

in terms of exchange economically. I'm not saying we should go back to village at all.

What I'm saying is the human mind evolved in that context to a far larger degree, than

it evolved in the fast-changing context that we have today. So the separation of people

leaves people feeling alone and isolated there is a big overlap between the neural pathways

are responsible for social connection and interaction and the pathways for introspective

faculties such as meditation reflecting upon ourselves is very much related to the way

we can reflect about other people so if we are missing social interaction a large scale,

what is that doing to our ability to understand ourselves? and then it's like a loop it

keeps going and spiraling. social connections to Me… I want to say something personal

is social connections to me I always enjoyed social connection but I leaned much more into

being introverted at some point I realized that part of my personal fulfillment in this

life is about relating to other people, helping other people and feeling connected that's

just part of how the brain works it's not even like a yes of course for me there's something

about it that feels like a- like a- just a fuzzy or a feeling that I just have to do

it you know? Not logical, but if you want to look at it logically the human brain is

wired for social connection we are social animals and that is a part of healthy brain

function. If don't have enough that, you are risking something happening to you I've seen

a lot of loneliness coinciding with dementia and alzheimer's sorry I don't know the

statistics, I think it's something to watch out for and I think we need to be careful

that we don't spend too much time within four walls whatever that is at work or at home

and either with the same people over and over small number of people just our spouse. Some

of us may have enough where with all that to just be fine with that because we're healthy

and another levels and emotionally, but in such a- in the world where we are bombarded

constantly with experiments of information, chemicals, media, etcetera, we have so many

variants, variables, that you want to maximize your chances of success, you know? Valued

social interaction is a pillar of your life that's mine my response in-

what is the biggest single thing you can tell our audience of advice to get from you what's

the biggest single thing you can tell our audience?

You have the power to direct your experience. With the proper tools, you can direct your

life in the way that aligns with your deeper desires. It will involve some reflection and

awareness of what is adjacently possible to you, but with the right set of tools and the

right intention and belief in yourself, you can accomplish things that you would never

dream are possible of accomplishing.

Very well said, Axel Montes from all the way in Australia it's been such an honor and a

pleasure to have you here at different brains.org on another episode of exploring different

brains! Thank you so much!

Thank you Hackie, and thank you to everyone who who listened and I'm happy to be in touch

as needed thank you so much.

Joanie's Agile Self-Development Program Intro - Duration: 1:42.

Hi, I'm Joanie Connell. You're probably nerd looking to expand your people skills.

Well, you've come to the right place because I help nerds expand their people's skills so they can get to the next level of leadership.

I used to be electrical engineer and now I'm a psychologist. And so I am a nerd myself.

Let me tell you how I do it. I have developed what I call

Joanie's Agile Self-development process.

It's very similar to agile tech development, but you're working on your own skills.

So, how does that work?

Well, first of all, we start with an assessment to figure out where you're at: what strengths you have,

where you want to go, what value you want to bring to your customers--in other words people you work with--

and then we look at what tools you need to get there.

So we put together a plan for a sprint, kind of like the tech development.

But it might be more of a 12-week rather than a 6-week because it's sort of a background process in the self- development area.

You may not have time to meet every day,

like you do normally with your teams. So we work on a 90-day process, meeting every other week, probably.

So you try it out

You practice your tool with me and then you would try it out with your customers, like the people you work with.

Get some feedback from some select people you trust. Find out what went well, what didn't, and then we iterate.

So, it's very straightforward, just like you do at work.

I'd love to work with you and your Agile Self-development process. So give me a call or

Send me an email to see how you can get started. We'll get you those people skills you need to be an effective leader.

Discover what Mindful Self-Compassion Is In Simple & Accessible Terms - Duration: 16:33.

Kathryn Lovewell: Hello and welcome, to Kind Mind Academy, it's Kathryn Lovewell here again,

and we've got another opportunity for a quarter of an hour gentle dive into understanding

Mindful Self-compassion.

So today it's I'm going to use a very, very simple analogy and before I dive into that

exercise which I think encapsulates beautifully what MSC is all about, I would like to first

honor and acknowledge doctors Kristin Neff and Christopher Germer.

So everything that I'm talking about is based from their research, from their clinical expertise.

They are the ones that have created the course that I teach; it's an eight-week course or

a five-day intensive.

And I just wanted to honor them because this is not my brainchild and the exercises and

some of the meditations and the ways in to being and living a more Self-Compassionate

life are all from this magical work.

It has significantly changed my internal landscape from quite a -- well quite an understatement,

a very critical, perfectionist approach to life maybe not on the outside but definitely

on the inside.

So even though I have a best-selling book even though I have a very good degree, even

though I have and this can go on and on lots of external achievements inside there was

still a boy staying.

So what?

You're still not good enough, and the striving energy, which the nuances of MSC start to

address over time, starts to lessen and it's really softened in my life.

So no matter where you are with how you are with yourself, I do believe Mindful Self-compassion

can make profound difference in your life -- whether you're perceived to be successful

on the outside or not; whether you're perceived to be excelling or not it really doesn't matter,

what's important is this internal life and they've entered it a little bit today.

So thank you very much for joining it's lovely to see some of you online already.

Before we go into that exercise, I would like to just have a gentle soft landing the experienced

one last week I'll make this one a little bit shorter maybe just from one minute.

As we have precious time together, and I know time is precious and the beauty of MSC is

that we can learn to savor the time that we have in our day and if you care to join me

you're very welcome to enjoy this brief moment, it's pressing pause in all of this busyness,

this hectic life that we need.

So if it feels comfortable for you simply close your eyes or you can just gently bow

your head or soften your gaze.

You may like to take a few slow breaths in and out.

Just noticing the breath, you may notice some sounds in the room that you're eating or maybe

outside of the room and just let those sounds gently land on your ears; you don't need to

go searching for anything.

Literally giving yourself a moment and if the mind is busy let that be totally okay.

Heal yourself softly, cooling down on the day.

You can allow yourself to let's gently return back to this moment with me with the sound

of a bell.

Lovely.

So this is hopefully a feeling more refreshed now or at least a little softer around the

edges, and I have a simple question for you -- how do you treat a friend?

Now let me narrow this down to a particular challenge.

Just think about various times that maybe you've had a friend who was struggling in

some way; maybe they failed at something, maybe they feeling inadequate about something

so they're really having a bit of a tough time.

Just consider how do you treat them they come to you and they're feeling rotten.

What do you say to them and what term do you use just have a looking reflection you may

like to write it down, if you're watching this is a recording you can press pause and

really empty out we would ordinarily spend a lot longer on this exercise.

Now what do you treat a friend?

They found feeling it out of course something's gone wrong, very good.

Okay.

And now I'd like you to imagine you're turning the page fresh into paper, return to neutral

maybe take a nice deep breath and I'd like you to consider this.

How do you treat yourself when something's gone wrong?

Maybe you've struggled with something, maybe you failed it something, maybe you're feeling

inadequate.

How do you speak it to yourself and what tone do you use?

So again, if you're listening to this as a recording press pause really contemplate.

What does that sound like inside your head?

What's the tone like what words do you use?

Really, get curious and know that when we are exploring this there is no judgment Mindful

Self-compassion is not about judgment it's about compassion, acceptance, opening and

warming to water showing up.

So we're getting some answers coming through thank you for sharing yes much harsher when

speaking to myself typically not kindly telling off.

So absolutely when I did this exercise I was genuinely shocked I could have written pages

and pages for the letter, the judgments, the criticisms.

Yes, thank you.

Paul is saying I would be gentle and understanding and passionate that's a real sense of kindness

to others, but me critical.

So if you have discovered the same and you'll have different nuances add to that criticism,

please know that you are not alone and this is a very, very important aspect of Mindful

Self-compassion, the common humanity element.

That we are not alone in our suffering and these statistics, which are very interesting,

Kristin Ness preliminary data, suggests that 78% of people are significantly more compassionate

towards others than they are themselves.

That's nearly three-quarters of the population that also struggle with that in critic, that

also struggle with being kind to yourself when something goes wrong.

So if you had quite a different quite a contrast in that internal voice, please know you're

not alone; and what's exciting and this is why I chosen to start sharing on Facebook

about MSC is that it can change.

I never imagined it would be possible and it can change.

So three years on that in a critical voice just is not there in the same way maybe protective,

maybe it'll pull me up occasionally but if there is a kindness a softness, a gentleness,

a compassionate voice inside my head to know no matter how much I failed although difficult

time finding something.

I treat myself with friendliness.

So the simplest definition I want to leave you with and this is why I wanted to start.

You know it's early days, it's only our second MSC Facebook live with a really tangible accessible

simple definition of MSC because there's lots of science behind it.

There's lots of research and there's lots of conceptual information that I could share

with you in the early days, but actually I feel it's so, so much more helpful to have

a tangible experience of it; and to have that clear defined difference that contrast.

But of course I'd look after my friend, of course I would be patient with them, of course

I would be tender and kind and gentle and reassuring and so on and so forth.

Oh but me well pull myself pull my socks up you know give myself a talking-to whatever

it is.

So having that tangible contrast I feel it's much more helpful in the early days to really

recognize how and why you might benefit from Mindful Self-Compassion either with an intensive

retreat there's one coming up in June or during an eight-week course that I do making certain

with.

So the simplest definition is treating ourselves with the same kindness as we would treat a

friend when things go wrong.

So hopefully that's been really, really helpful.

I have just a couple more moments, thank you for the thumbs up.

Just to share a beautiful poem I found today, and this it's just a light working its simplicity

and it's beautiful and hopefully will encourage you to consider being kinder and remembering

that you are enough just as you are.

This is called Enough by David White.

Enough, these few words are enough.

If not these words, this breath, if not this breath is sitting here.

This opening to life we have refused again and again until now, until now.

You may like to listen to that again and again.

The more I listen to it, there --- the more deeper it takes me.

So I would just like to say thank you so much to everyone who's joined me: Thank You Cara,

thanks Sara, Paula, Carol anyone else that I can't see on this now, thank you for your

lovely comments, love hearts and your thumbs up.

It's really interesting to step out of one's comfort zone and share something that's so,

so deep deeply important to my heart, in a public arena like this.

So I appreciate your support thank you.

If you would like to learn more, please just drop me a line on Kind Mind Academy or private

message me whatever you want to do, I always love to talk about this.

So until next week our Compassionate Wednesdays.

Our Self-compassionate Wednesdays will continue 6:15 on the dot.

So my times up.

I hope that this quarter of an hour will warm your heart and bring you a little bit of clarity

and lightness as to how to live more Self-Compassionate life.

So until next time, take great care of yourself.

Thanks now goodbye.

Liverpool's self-fulfilling prophecy and the West Ham paradox - Duration: 3:16.

 The Blood Red podcast is back, a little earlier than usual, to discuss the draw with Leicester City that extended Liverpool's lead at the top of the Premier League to five points, but left fans wondering whether their side had just wasted a golden opportunity

  Our Liverpool FC correspondent James Pearce admits it was a frustrating night , but adds that it could have been worse, which leads host Ian Doyle to question whether it was actually a good result

Joe Rimmer and Paul Gorst disagree.   So often Anfield inspires the Reds to glory but did the nerves and tension that undoubtedly existed in the crowd on Wednesday night have a negative effect on the players?   The panel discuss that before talks turn to the performance of referee Martin Atkinson , whether Liverpool are getting a raw deal when it comes to penalties , and how Naby Keita got on after he was handed a starting place in his preferred position

  Kyle Walker's deleted tweet , Manchester City's desire and even Brexit get a mention before James gives us an insight into Lazar Markovic's existence at Liverpool

It's worth listening for that story alone.  At the time of recording, there was little in the way of activity in or out of Anfield on transfer deadline day, and Ian asks whether Jurgen Klopp has made a mistake by not dipping into the market, before the podcast rounds off by previewing the trip to West Ham on Monday and predicting the Liverpool line-up at the London Stadium

Violence and self-harm in prisons 'unacceptably high' Justice Secretary admits - News Live - Duration: 4:43.

Violence and self-harm in prisons are "unacceptably high", the Justice Secretary has admitted, after official figures revealed both have surged again to reach new record levels.

David Gauke acknowledged the latest official safety in custody statistics for England and Wales were "disturbing" after they showed increases across all of the key categories.

In the year to September, there were 33,803 assault incidents, up 20% on the previous 12 months.

Of those, nearly 4,000 were recorded as "serious" - such as those which require medical treatment or result in fractures, burns, or extensive bruising.

Assaults on staff also continue to rise, reaching record highs.

They increased by 29% year on year, to 10,085, including 997 which were serious, although the Ministry of Justice said a change in the way these figures are recorded may have contributed to the jump.

There were 52,814 self-harm incidents, a 23% increase, and a new record high, according to the MoJ's report.

It also revealed there were 325 deaths in prison custody in the 12 months to December 2018, up 10% from the previous year. Of these, four were homicides.

Mr Gauke said: "Violence and self-harm in our prisons is unacceptably high and these figures underline why we are spending an extra £70m to fight the drugs plaguing prisons and boost security, while also training over 4,000 new prison officers in handling the complex offender population.

"Clearly there is a huge amount yet to be done but I am determined to cut the violence so prisons can focus on rehabilitating the offenders who will be back out at some point.

"And while these figures are disturbing, I am optimistic that the measures we have been putting in place will help us to reduce violence and ultimately better protect the public."

Shadow justice secretary Richard Burgon claimed cuts to staff and budgets were "directly to blame for violence spiralling out of control in our prisons".

He said: "Our prisons have become a danger to officers, inmates and wider society."

The Government has come under sustained pressure in recent years over the state of jails after a safety crisis swept through much of the estate.

The new statistics show the overall number of assaults has more than doubled in the last four years.

Ministers say drugs, and psychoactive substances - formerly known as legal highs - have been a "game changer" in destabilising prisons.

Ahead of the latest findings, the Government announced that new scanning equipment that can detect invisible traces of illicit substances soaked into clothing and paper is up and running in 10 of the most challenging jails.

Prisons Minister Rory Stewart declared in August that he would quit if there was no improvement in safety standards at the 10 establishments within a year.

Mr Stewart has also suggested that jail sentences of six months or less for most crimes could be scrapped to alleviate pressure on the system.

The Press Association revealed on Thursday that prisons have been issued with detailed guidance on handling incoming mail following a surge in attempts to smuggle in drug-laced paper and other contraband via post.

An official security briefing says correspondence is being exploited to convey illicit substances and items into establishments, with instances reported in all prison regions.

Mark Day, of the Prison Reform Trust, said: "These disturbing figures show every indicator of prison safety to be pointing the wrong way, with a rise in numbers of natural and self-inflicted deaths and record levels of self-harm and assaults.

"The measures the Government have put in place to improve prison safety, including increasing staff numbers and the roll-out of a new key worker model, have not yet succeeded in reversing this rising trend."

Andrew Neilson, of the Howard League for Penal Reform, said: "Ministers have announced their intention to reform sentencing, and the harrowing statistics published today show why action is needed so urgently."

The Cobo Vault Hack-Proof Series: Side Channel Attack and the Self-Destruct Mechanism - Duration: 3:06.

Hey everyone! I'm Lixin, the Head of Hardware at Cobo,

a leading cryptocurrency wallet company.

We all know that security is a very serious topic,

and we're going to have a bunch of videos on that.

Today, the topic is about a very powerful hack -

The side channel attack.

If you search on Google, you'll see a lot of interesting information!

Even what you think is unhackable, can be hacked…..

like instant messaging apps,

GPUs and much more……

The hackers must be really, really busy!

Ok, so..what is a side channel attack?

Side channel attacks are based on information gained from the implementation of any electronic device.

For example, a hacker can monitor power consumption

and extract information from the circuit board.

Back in 2015, Professor Jochen Hoenicke hacked a hardware wallet

with just a $70 oscilloscope!

Click the link to know more!

We can prevent these kind of hacks with the Cobo Vault.

It's the most secure hardware wallet in the market today.

It has no wifi, NFC, bluetooth, or USB ports.

There's no point of entry,

but if hackers want to extract information,

they need access to the circuit board.

And there are two options left here,

one is cutting the Vault,

the second is using a heat gun to melt the glue holding the screen in place…

Cutting through metal will damage the circuit board,

so most likely they will go through the screen.

Let's see what happens if I do that…

You can see the Cobo Vault is working fine.

Let's turn it off and remove the screen.

For this demo, we have melted the glue of the screen…..

to make it easier to show you.....

As you can see, the screen is removed!

Let's put it back and turn it on.

Ok, it's booting up….

Can you see this sentence here. This device is no longer safe to use...

The self-destruct mechanism is triggered.

The encryption chip is erased when the screen is removed.

There's nothing left to hack now…

But how do you get back your crypto?

Don't worry, you have this - the Cobo Tablet.

It's a much better solution than a piece of paper to store your recovery seeds.

Stay tuned for more information on this.

Mindful Self-Compassion at The Museum of Happiness! - Duration: 26:19.

(Kathryn Lovewell) Good evening, everybody.

Welcome to Kind Mind Academy MSC

Bite-Size, Mindful Self-Compassion

Bite-Size; and guess where we are we're

at the Museum of Happiness reading

happiness!

Loving it here, we are halfway through

our Mindful Self-Compassion Five-Day

Intensive Training. I know it's so good

and it's been the most wonderful

experience here in this glorious,

glorious place -- The Museum of Happiness.

At present is based in Camden and soon

to be on the move,

so we are blessed to be the completion

of this chapter of Museum of Happiness.

So the wonderful Michelle Edina and

Vicky Johnson invited us here to share

the magic of one her self compassion

with its members; and it's being glorious

really really magical. So I'm full of

gratitude and feeling blessed and joy

such a delight to be here; it's such a

privilege to share MSC in the basement

of love and kindness and joy and

happiness really spreading happiness.

Because we know a Mindful

Self-compassion increases social

connectedness and brings this beautiful

sense of love and kindness and

compassion; decreases all those deficit

feelings that anxiety depression as

negativity thoughts and feelings that

can swamp our lives when please get up --

so truly blend. We're surrounded by love

and kindness and mindfulness kindfulness

everything. An MSC teacher could post

you want and I'm joined today by the

amazing Liz Walker, who's at the other

side of the Museum at the moment working

her technical magic before she'll come

and join us in a while. And we will have

a soft landing for them. So I just wanted

to share with you just how fabulous it's

been it's just and Shamash and Victoria

we will continue working their magic in

42 acres when they move; and wherever

they go they're sharing the love at an

event tonight and tomorrow and continue

to deepen their practice. They've been

with us all week and they will be

continuing to spread the word of Michael

Self-compassion because they are living

embodiment of it which is yes such a

privilege to be with them and teach them.

Hello Carol, hello Paula wonderful for

you to join us. Thank you so much for

coming and those of you that are

watching the recording, I know it will be

a different venue but you know find out

about Museum of Happiness. Liz will no doubt

pop some details about losing happiness

online may be a bit tricky today, because

we've got just the one laptop. Well we're

away from the office and the room but I

wanted to let you know it's the most

magical day. If you've not connected with

the museum companies, before please do so

it's such a gear playing on amazing

events -- we wonderful heart-centered

events that just fill you up; and we're

reminded regularly aren't we with MSC?

Cannot hear from an empty cart and

Museum of Happiness really helps you

fill up your own cup and that's what

it's all about. So let's dive in I'm a

bit sideways because I've got another

chair waiting for the lovely Lizzy and

we can just have a soft landing; and

you've never done this before a soft

landing is quite simply. The invitation

to settle -- settle down settle into the

body, settle into this moment, just be

with this moment -- be how you are notice,

how you're feeling it, hot sweaty it's , 86 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:55,800 quite warm in here and close of the

windows and it's such a lovely warm

evening isn't it what a glorious day.

We've had at the end of September in the

UK so real treat in the sunshine at

lunchtime, so wherever you're at and this

means if you've had a tough day; if

you've had a delightful day; if you've

had a dull day' if you're just tired from

a big day this little soft landing will

hopefully nurture and nourish, you just

bringing kindness to this one, yeah.

Just giving a little bit of a tenderness,

paying attention to yourself, cherishing

yourself as you would a loved one

cherishing; yourself as you would a dear

friend cherishing yourself as you would

a newborn. Baby, you're a little puppy,

let's just come into the world with

real-time kindness and we're going to be

talking today about -- oh well if I do that

when I lose my motivation to get up and

go change the world and make a

difference and strike, create and be a

success so that's the little nuggets

that we'll start to look at a little bit

later; and we're also going to have our

prize prove tonight. I know an action

pack so I better get on with it. Yes

there will be a very lucky winner

tonight. Hopefully there'll be some

watching [ph] commit to this tonight; we will

be making a phone call to say

congratulations, you have won a free

place to the entire MSC program.

How does give me the love.

Alrighty, so I know exciting thank you.

So let's turn to our way to a really

nice. Hey Julie, welcome welcome.

Let's settle down, we talked about this

sound Mindful Self-Compassion first down

but in is emitted from the body;

And if there's more gentleness and

kindness it might be Oh real tenderness.

So just allowing whatever's here to be --

here you may like to close your eyes for

a moment

and a soft landing is just that we're

landing wherever we are very gently and

kindly no expectations, no projections,

leaving the past for give and no need to

go searching to the future. Just resting

here as Hakeem Shamash always say put

down those shopping bags that might be

full to the brim with the past in one

hand and full to the brim with concerns

and worries of future put them all down.

You can pick them up again in a while

but right now rest. They like to take it

slow smooth deep breath connecting with

yourself and with your body and that

beautiful breath softening and releasing

any holding intentional body

saying hello to yourself, welcoming

yourself to this space are magical MSC

Bitesize;

[Music]

inclining toward yourself as she would a

dear dear friend with kindness and

compassion maybe feeling that in a smile;

spreading across your heart as she

welcome yourself. Not

letting any thoughts that arise just

come and go a train of thought traveling

along the platform, along the train

tracks and you can just down with that --

[Music]

no need to jump with any thoughts don't

need to ride that train tonight; being a

warmth of your own heart lets you rest

in this good intention;

and when you're ready you may like you

gently open your eyes, come back to this

back oh I do love that gorgeous. Oh it --

different from my bells and it right

well. Let us begin -- Lizzie you're ready to

join me? I am so welcome the amazing Liz

Walker. Nobody from the museum and this

has been her teaching with me this

amazing Five-Day Intensive training so

it's the whole eight-week program

squished into five beautiful days. So

it's been amazing. So let's address one

thing that I'd like to address my

onliest have a groovy question that's

come up as well so many things, so many

issues covered and [indiscernible] intensively so

if I'll strapped ourselves there's lots

of things bubbling up in the Museum of

Happiness at the moment and all the

amazing participants really working with

all these tools; and sometimes wrestling

grappling with them and that's magical

because we know that there's really good

intention to bring kindness to their

hearts. So here's one that came up today

that was really really is a big

misconception, a big myth, a big problem

and maybe a big barrier for people to

move toward Mindful Self-Compassion and

that is if we're kind to ourselves MSC.

what will happen to our motivation, yeah

I'm just going to be well give myself a

little one of our participants called it

a Hall Pass.

Sort of like a get out of jail free card

oh you don't do you exercise go on you

go and rest.

Oh you don't have to do your

like oh I need to anyhow I go; oh you

don't need to do that email tonight; oh

you don't mean to well. No you don't need

to clean your teeth don't worry about it.

Alright so this is a genuine fear, and

it's a really big concern of a lot of

people with interpreters and Kristen Neff,

one of the co-founders of Mindful

Self-Compassion. She's got some great

footage, she's discussed these myths of

Mindful Self-compassion and really

wonderfully that you can find them on

YouTube; and again later on maybe you can

find those links and stick them in

superstar texts because there are other

things of our own - it won't be tonight.

Everybody, alright so that will pop them

up at some point but it's a really great

point; and I know what's exciting is that

Kristen being your awesome researcher

that she is has demonstrated and proven

categorically that it's the absolute

antithesis of what we'd expect -- it's the

opposite of what we expect. Oh if I'm

really kind and soft and fluffy to

myself which is what people say no it's

not not bluffing;

you need a courageous heart to do this

work a very courageous heart and the

people in this room are realizing just

how courageous thing we need to be

sometimes with the material that we're

working through; but to reassure those of

you that are concerned well I just have

a get-together [ph] the bed again if I'm kind.

Oh I'm too tired let's just [ph] standard.

Actually, the research demonstrates that

it's the complete opposite; we are more

likely to take care of our well-being. We

are more likely to behave differently in

so much that we would eat better, make

sure we sleep get some rest,

take good care of ourselves, lots of

common curious, isn't it? We are more

likely to address difficult situations;

we are more likely to more compassionate;

we are more likely to address conflict;

and say sorry sorry sorry when there's

been

relational difficulty. And so the list

goes on and on and on so it's really

important to know that actually when we

start to bring kindness into our lives

because we put the stick down they come

on now or Mr. Motivator or whoever

you've got yelling in your ear. It

doesn't mean that we're not able to

motivate but with motivated I would say

inspired by a kind of voice we learn to

cultivate a compassionate voice rather

than a critical voice; but without this

credible voice casting I'm never going

to do anything. I'm never going to

succeed and get stuff done it's not true

and our experience is I think you'd

agree the more we cultivate our ability

to be kind we recognize that actually my

body's way to try to do that now will

likely we are to give ourselves some

rest; maybe get some nourishing sleep; and

with twice as productive the next day.

It's quite curious and sometimes it may

be actually my own time to do that. I'm

going to take care of myself --

Kristen talks about the yin and the yang

and will maybe dive into that a bit more

in another one that would be really good;

but to recognize that there can be a

real yang energy you know to say no I'm

not going to work to 3:00 in the morning

to mark my papers which is definitely

what a lot of teachers do in my

experience or I would be let's get up at

5:00 in the morning to make sure I do it

really right and correct that is not kind

what's my quality of teaching like --

what's my quality of life like when I

push and push and push myself and use

that stick or the angry motivator in my

head. So we learn to cultivate a kind

voice and that kind voice actually will

take care of all of you, so there was it

might be a really good debate. You've got

any thoughts on this what sort of things

you do. Hi Misty.

Yes, you can relate Misty. I hear you so

just start to your my invitation would

be to explore. What can you do to

motivate with a kind voice, a

compassionate approach. We know there's

been studies done about you know those

sports coaches, the ones that yell and

the ones that inspire and say good job,

keep going, don't give up you're doing

great.

Yes, school wasn't as great as it could

be and I know you can do it. So that

kindness first is the fully stocked

rubbish why didn't you do better. You

know that doesn't work and it can lead

to really destructive behaviors within

mind and body destructive behaviors. So

that's probably enough of these in the

photo today. What do you think? (Liz Walker) I think so

in fact you know when you were saying

before it's linked then I think what

would be good because that's come up

again and again and on our Youtube

channel or Crime Line cabinets, a

vertical encounter YouTube channel. We

have got quite a few videos which

actually talk on some of Kristen's

videos when she's sharing about Mindful Self

Compassion versus or Self-Compassion

Business Self esteem. Yes as in it's not

that's a really good one to watch. I'm

quite know watching it personally at

double-time because I let see the

bidding for can I dare and collected put

up one regarding the motivating. (Kathryn Lovewell) Yes, we

haven't got that already. (Liz Walker) I don't know if

they do so I won't have a look at that

on the weekend and maybe. (Kathryn Lovewell) So we have a

YouTube

channel everybody. So if you haven't had a

look where do we go live YouTube - Kind Mind. (Liz Walker) Exactly.

(Kathryn Lovewell) Beautiful to have a little search. So

(Liz Walker) I've made a note to do that. Now I know

Kathryn mentioned earlier that we have

got a fresh straw going on tonight. So

let me tell you a little bit about it.

Over the last couple of weeks,

Kathryn and I have been privileged

enough to go to a couple of well-being

events in the Surrey area and down here

in the Southeast England and we spoke to

lots and lots of people and they all

want to be part of a prize draw for and

the Eight-week MSC program; and so what I

have done rather crudely is actually I

have it already saying down it's just oh..

(Kathryn Lovewell) Thank you for these senders, love hearts

true. (Liz Walker) We do like and everybody's name and

has been put randomly and this on these

post-it notes with a number next to them

so and just to Mary Jane stop I know

very typical to really ask someone (Kathryn Lovewell) If

you know love to you in (Liz Walker) Just a moment

(Kathryn Lovewell) Sorry. (Liz Walker) Just a moment. So most what came

up out of these weekends or the you know

these weekend events was not only did we

able to offer some meditation

experiences which were very very well

received actually and it was really nice

to see just so many people joining in. We

also were asked quite a lot about

getting to know a little bit more about

Mindful Self-Compassion and over the next

couple of weeks we actually have to

intro evenings offered in any casual

two [indiscernible] and the time lining had any

therapy room and you're able to go and

book your place onto that. So if you're

in the Southeast and you would like to

come along actually even if you're

further afield will be very very welcome.

One lady who there's coming tonight we

program all the way from Cheshire so

she's going to come down each women week

because she's already been on our Five-day

intensive with us and she's now going to

come and

Eight-week program with us and really

enjoy in theatre. (Kathryn Lovewell) She loved it that much

she wanted to do it again. Oh sorry. (Liz Walker) So

delicious and will she let she take it

to a much much deeper level and going

just another layer down. Anyway - two intro

evenings 1 on the 2nd of October which

is a Tuesday night and one of Monday the

8th of October. So they run 90 minutes or

so and three up.. (Kathryn Lovewell) Did you

hear that three... so crazy (Liz Walker) Kindmindacademy.com

forward-slash courses and you'll be able

to find and registered [indiscernible]. So

we have a few paces linked... So what I

would like to do is because we've got a

few people on line

I've got line here, so what I would like

to do I would like whoever I don't want

to you know appreciate but whoever is on

line who would like to put a number in

between one and forty six one.. (Kathryn Lovewell) Oh.. forty six,possible winner

so who's it going to be, who's going

to press that button and give us a

number

sort of a drum roll moment shall we?

[Music]

We've got Gary and Paula, Misty, Carol

Paula. [indiscernible] (Liz Walker) So let's see if someone will and

it's a lady called Rachel and I actually

don't have her last name I have almost

everybody else's last night on there

that's one to seven on that one and it's

a lady called Rachel. (Kathryn Lovewell) So right we have

your phone number Rachel. (Liz Walker) and Rachel (Kathryn Lovewell) see

if you don't fill the forms in pop. (Liz Walker) We

will get in touch with you and let you

know the next courses we've got a

Tuesday evening course that on 16th of

October running eight weeks.

(Kathryn Lovewell) Oh sorry you missed it Paula. You

were close and if we cannot get hold of

it I'll be Rachel and no I'm sure we will

we will use number 33. So we'll see. Thank

you for doing that. (Liz Walker) So two programs is

the Tuesday evening program which at

some 116 and then we've got the winds

day morning program which that's a 70. So

that's it.

it's only going overnight. (Kathryn Lovewell) I think so

coming up to 8:30.

Let me just check my notes just to say

that we are deeply grateful once again

to the Museum to those beautiful to

Getting Reviews For Your Self Published Book — BookConnect [Book Review Software] - Duration: 23:36.

Hello, hello, welcome.

This is Debbie Drum, and welcome to this Friday's workshop mini where we talk about all ways

that you can grow your business, make money with your business, and it's mostly in the

form of making passive income with content because that's what this channel is about,

okay?

So, you guys are here live and watching the replay because you want to make more book

sales, and as I promised I'm going to show something that will make you more book sales

and get you more reviews, okay?

Because these are things that as authors, as publishers, we want to do because sales

make us money and reviews also make us money because they make us sales.

So everything works together.

I want to rewind, I think about like a year and a half ago, for those of you who don't

know, a lot of you here probably use the software book review Targeter.

We've been running that tool since I think 2014, and there's been a lot of changes in

the industry, and updates with the tool and everything like that.

But one of the main questions that I always got was how do I deliver my book to potential

people who are looking to maybe read a chapter, or I haven't published the book yet and I

want to go ahead and give them the book so that they can read it before I publish it

and then write me a review when I click that Publish button.

Because when you actually publish a book, especially on Amazon, your first duty is to

get reviews.

That's like your first form of marketing because it is a component that a person uses when

they're making their buying decision of should I buy this book or not?

So imagine like you shopping for something, especially online and specifically in the

realm of, you know, content that you're looking to consume, don't you look at the reviews

when you're buying something, and don't the reviews either kind of make or break the sale

for you?

Yes.

So you have to imagine yourself in the shoes of your potential customers, your potential

readers, and understand that this is a part of the process.

So if you're walking around trying to sell a book with zero reviews or one review, then

that's not going to cut it, okay?

So I started to think about some solutions on book delivery, and we built this tool,

it's called Book Connect, and you're seeing it right here on the screen right now.

And over the past year and a half, I really got excited about this tool and thought it

was, that every author should own this tool, but I wanted to expand on some of the features

and give authors even more benefits on what they can do and the power of how they can

do it to share their book, share their content.

That's the first thing.

Then also grow your list because that's something that you should be working on as well, growing

a list.

And three, getting reviews, right?

And then four, showcasing your work.

So that is exactly what Book Connect does today.

So I want to give you a little bit of a demo here because it's a new tool.

It has new features.

It's been around and we have users, but kind of a nice big relaunch that we're doing to

share a lot of the new features that authors can benefit from.

I wanted to make this as easy as possible for authors to use, and automatic as possible

for authors to use, and I think that we've done that, all right?

Every time I'm kind of working with the programmers and going through all the steps and saying

how can we make this easier, and how could we make it that authors aren't starting from

scratch especially in the area of selling your book, okay?

So, what do I mean by that?

Well, I'll get to that, but pretty much the idea of having templates for you, built in

for you, so you don't have to start from scratch when you're thinking of how do I write a book

description especially in that area because that is going to get somebody to entice somebody

to actually download your book to even go ahead and write a review.

So we have a template for that.

So, let me just go ahead, if it's okay with you, to walk through what Book Connect does.

So, not in love with this dashboard.

That's a work in progress, but let's go to add an author.

So what we want to do is first step is to add an author, and that's easy, so I'm just

going to do, let's do Friday, yay.

Let's just put my email.

It might not let me add my email in there.

That doesn't matter.

Friday@gmail.com, and happyfriday@gmail.com.

Kind of the boring stuff.

So it creates the author name, and then the next step which makes a lot of sense, and

it brings us to the page where we actually add our book in here.

Because as you'll see, readers will be able to go ahead and download your book in any

file format that they want.

So here's my Friday profile that I just created.

This is the list name.

We won't get too much into that right now, but Book Connect also lets you communicate

with the people who have downloaded your book, and you can send them messages.

So you can either, with this planning structure right now, you can either communicate with

the users right from the tool, or you can go ahead and export them into your own favorite

auto-responder.

So now we have our book label for internal use, so I'm just going to use my book because

just as a demo.

Now here's the real book title, Read Better Faster.

This is all dummy information, well this is the real book, but I just want to get through

this quickly.

You can put a series in there.

You can put a volume in there, if you want, to give it more information.

Next, what you do is you select an image, a file, right here, and this will pretty much

be the cover of your book right here.

Now, what I want to show you here is you can either add just the PDF or you can add a PDF,

an ePub or a MOBI file, and this will allow people to go ahead and download your book

in like an eReader or a Kindle or an iPhone or an Android, whatever device they want to

read it on.

So I'm just going to go ahead, I won't bore you with adding all these files, and I'm going

to go ahead and edit one that's already in there, all right?

So, here's all the files.

Here's the cover that I added, and we'll go to the next step.

This feature I absolutely love because many reasons.

So basically what you're going to do, I'm going to show you how to get a clean URL for

your book if it's listed on Amazon, right?

And, actually I just thought of a new idea for this page, and this is always happening,

and all I need to do is pretty much set up a [inaudible 00:09:00] task for my programmers

every time I have an idea and they implement it.

It's a great thing.

I have a great team behind this tool as well.

So, review links.

I'm just writing myself a reminder for a feature.

Okay, so you get the clean URL.

You go through the two-minute training, I show you how to get it.

And then the review URL automatically gets generated after you put this in.

So what happens is is that after you share this book and somebody downloads your book,

which I'll show you how in a minute, the system automatically sends two gentle friendly reminders

to that person to remind them to review your book.

So, you don't have to do that.

The system automatically does it, and it sends them this special link.

And what this special link does is it takes the person right to where they write the review.

It doesn't take them to the book listing.

It takes them to where they pick the stars and they write the review, so it makes it

very easy and user-friendly for people to write you a review, which is something that

you definitely want, right?

So we don't want to pester people, so we send them two nice gentle friendly reminders, and

then you can follow up after that.

Then we ask you if your book is on Kindle Unlimited, and that comes into play a little

bit later too.

So you have now your author set up, you have your book set up, and it's all ready.

Now you need what we call a download page, and the download page looks like this right

here.

So, it grabs that image, and it grabs also the book description.

We have in here, as you can see, a templated book description that you just literally just

fill in the blanks.

This was made, then this was part of the bonus actually, this was made by two people that

are highly respected in our industry.

Steve Scott helped me with this book description, and Steve has amazing credentials.

He's a multi-time best seller, and he makes a ton of passive income on Amazon each month.

He knows what he's doing.

He knows how to sell books, and he even got to number one in Amazon of all books, one

or two days last year, which is incredible.

So, I highly recommend Steve, and he helped me with this, so that's that.

So all you need to do is pretty much follow this structure, and then you have your beautiful

book description.

And what we also do have is we have this training section here, and I also did an interview

with my good friend Brian Cohen, and he goes through how to sell your book with book description

and the actual formula to use, right?

So once you generate this download page, you send this download page to your readers, and

all they need to do is click Get My Book to get your book.

They put in their email, right, Get Book, and then they choose the format that they

want the book in.

Let's just say they want to read it on their computer, and let's say they want to download

the MOBI file, download [inaudible 00:13:13] file, download PDF, or just email the book.

And all these people who just went through this process now automatically get on your

list, and they automatically get sent a nice message from you, welcome message, and then

they go ahead and get those two reminders, one after seven days, another after another

seven days, okay?

So, what's cool about this, so remember we asked about the Kindle Unlimited, what they

can do right here is they can click right here, and this actually might need to be a

little bit bigger and bold.

They click right here, and they can download the book right from Amazon, and then they'll

be a verified reviewer if they go through Kindle Unlimited.

Actually, that might not be the case.

Scratch that.

I did find out a while ago it should be the case.

I don't know why it's not the case.

Amazon is so dumb that they, I believe, they don't give Kindle Unlimited readers a verified

review, and that is just so wrong, and what can we do, right?

But anyway we give them another option to download the book right through Amazon and

go through that process, so they have either way they can do it, right?

And they have multiple ways that they can do it as well.

So, those are the main four steps once you set up your book, and you can make different

download pages perhaps for different audiences, right?

So maybe you have a book that caters to, you know, all different people, and you maybe

want to write different messages or languages that are dedicated for different audiences,

and that's why you can do like other download pages and share different download pages for

different people, okay?

So that's that.

Now, one more thing I want to show you, and that's author pages.

So, this is an idea that I got a couple weeks ago, and we implemented it pretty quickly.

The reason why I got this idea is because I visited somebody's author page, and I was

just like, they had so many great books, but the selling page to, you know, to showcase

their work was awful.

And I was like, wow, maybe there's a way that I can help there, okay?

So what the idea of author pages is is that once you go through the process to make an

author page, it automatically populates your books so you don't have to do much.

So let me just show you.

We made one for Steve Scott, and so all author pages look like this.

They have an about section, a picture, and then here we go with all of the books that

are associated with Steve.

Now what's also really cool too, what this does, let's see if we can edit one of these.

Here's where we, let me see, here we go, here we go, sorry about that.

Things have changed a little bit, so here's where we put all the information in.

And then okay, so let's say we want to edit this one.

Click Edit.

So here we have the book link number one, right?

So it says buy The Morning Miracle for Writers, and then here's the Amazon link.

Now you can have an optional two additional buttons underneath that book.

Let's say you want to go, say, Buy on iTunes, and you click the link in there.

It'll bring them, just get go to link in there.

I'm just going to put Google right out.

So you can buy it on iTunes, and then now maybe you have Get My Free whatever, right?

And then the link, you can take them wherever you want, so let's just take them to my website.

So this is the Morning Miracle, and then we save the page.

Hopefully this works.

I didn't test it out yet, but it should.

If it doesn't, we'll fix it.

This is a live demo here, so here we go.

So there it is.

So we have the link to buy it on iTunes, which goes to Google as we set it to, and then we

have the link to Get My Free whatever, and that I believe I set to my web page.

So let's see, that might be an error there.

But yeah, so you could have up to three buttons, or you can just have one, you know, whatever

you want, but it's up to you, right?

This is yet another way.

You could even link this to another download page for another one of your books.

You see how everything kind of works together to get you more sales, to get you more fans,

and to get you more reviews, and it happens automatically.

Beautiful thing.

We're on our 22-minute mark, so I just finished the demo.

I'm going to go ahead and I'm going to paste this, the link in here to go check out Book

Connect, and right now we're having a special relaunch special price.

So right now it's in the chat box right now.

This is the least expensive this tool will ever be, okay?

So we are going to be raising the price.

We're going to make it higher, a higher entry price, and we're also going to make it either

a monthly fee later on, or a higher yearly fee.

So getting in right now is a really, really great idea.

We're highly dedicated to this tool, and we're excited to put in more templates for you,

more ways that you can just sell more books and learn how to sell more books, and creating

a system that all works together for you pretty much on autopilot after you set it up, which

is pretty standard on how to set up any book really, right?

And you can keep, you know, changing it and updating it as you wish, and then I'm not

going to go into showing this too much, but we have this way now that you can actually

send messages to people who downloaded you book.

So maybe you're launching a book down the road, and now you have a way to communicate

with the people who've downloaded your book previously.

And that's what you want to do as an author, which is so important.

You want to grow your list.

You want to make sales.

You want to get reviews, and you want to keep doing this and building it and building it,

okay?

So, we got some questions here.

Okay, good question, Gary.

If they just got the book, how they can already do a review?

Yeah, so, if your book, obviously if your book isn't published yet, they're going to

have to wait for, you know, to write a review because you can't write a review berore your

book is published, but you can always remind people when your book will be published, okay?

You get the book for free, right?

This whole system is, you know, creating the download page and creating the book link.

That is all to pretty much give your book away and grow your list.

So nobody's buying at this point unless they're visiting your author page, and then they can

buy your book that way.

All right, thanks, Barb.

All right, cool.

So, hopefully that was a good rundown for you.

Go check out Book Connect, especially this week at the best price, at debdrum.com/bcreopen.

That link is in the chat right now.

We went a little bit over today, but that's just because I'm a little bit excited, over

excited about the new tool and all the things that we're bringing to the author community

just to, again, give you more support, and get you more sales for your book and reviews.

So hopefully you enjoyed this as much as I did, and I will see you next week on the live

workshop mini.

Have a great rest of your day, and a good week.

Bye-bye.
