1000000% 🤭
Well said 😂
My will be done.
This video confirms my suspicions. I officially dont trust nor do i like this arrogant prick. Meditation is one of the best things ive done in my life.
Exactly. You can’t believe people full of ego how to free the ego, it’s just ridiculous
Meditation works. I'm been doing it for years. It works!
I’ve also been doing it for years, it doesn’t work
What type of meditation have you been doing?
Can you stop your thoughts at will and for how long? That’s the beginning of meditation.
@@Alem_Mehari I think you got the concept of meditation wrong .
In meditation you don't stop your thoughts , you just dont attach to them .
Thought keep coming, or should I rephrase.... THOUGHTS KEEP GOING from your mind, just like bubbles escaping the aerated drink when you open the bottle. Thoughts dont come, thoughts are going away from your mind ( just like the bubbles) . You are the one who is holding on to it, let go ... dont cling to it, dont attach to it, watch them arise and watch them go
Wether you believe it works or it doesn't work, it's true. Or something like that.
A neuroscientist and psychologist here with over 29 years of experience at university, sorry to this spy fellow, but he needs revision. Meditation absolutely helps those with anxiety and stress. It's more of a coping mechanism and yes, it can distract people, but this enables them to realign the nervous system Fight-or-Flight sympathetic response so that they can think rationally through the situation. It also bolsters resilience for future episodes of anxious thoughts. Wim Hoff breathing, cold therapy, and breathe work also help to bolster resilience and reduce anxious thoughts. The three breath vagal releasing procedure alone reduces anxiety and nervous system responding. Geeze, I don't like this guy becoming the guru for all things. Folks, he's agency and and never left.
That guy is driving people right into overthinking.
This guy is confusing meditation techniques. He doesn't have much idea of meditation. There are several different meditation techniques. But two major ones are: 1. Mindfulness(vipassana)/Zen meditation and 2. Breathing meditation(anapanasatti).
He is talking about "Breathing meditation" in which one sees the event/distration and then, get back to the breathing. But Mindfulness meditation is NOT just avoiding 'event/distraction'. It is about being 'aware' of the distration and stay with it as long as it lasts without being judgmental about it.
It means, mindfulness meditation or Zen meditation teaches one to not react to the event; rather stay with it, and learn and grow from the event. This is a seriously powerful technique to reduce anxiety, fear and gain new insight as well as peace of mind.
Please, don't claim something if you don't understand it in depth....
It is difficult to find a consistent definition of what mindful practice is. Your explanation is the best one I have heard regarding the distinction between mindfulness practice and watching your breath which are usually explained as the same thing. Also, mindfulness is usually described as being mindful of what you are doing, like washing the dishes etc. and returning to the activity if thoughts or feelings arise which is the same as watching the breath. Also, we need to make a distinction between the state of mindfulness and the practice of mindfulness. Most of the practices out there are a form of thought/emotional bypassing as Andrew asserts here.
@@sanekabc you are right. A part of Mindfulness practice actually is about being 'aware'(of the present moment/activities).....
Another imporatant practice of "mindfulness" meditation is(and even breathing/focus meditaion) is being aware of both 'focused' attention and diffused attention. We have two different attention types working at any moment. One is focused(conscious) another is like the peripheral one(unconscious).....Practicing both is important...
One important thing is, there are 10 different stages of Meditation. And breathing meditation is in stage 2,3....then, the meditator, after successfully completing those stages, get to Mindfulness practice...Stage 4,5 and so on...and then, to the more deeper ones.....
Buddha actually started his meditation practice with 'breathing'/focus meditation under the supervision of his teachers/gurus. But then, he realized breathing meditation is not gonna take him to liberation, and therefore, he abandoned breathing meditation. He then discovered Mindfulness meditation.....and adopted it. Mindfulness meditation is Buddha's greate discovery. Breathing meditation was in practice in India long before Buddha started meditation practice.
Usually, meditation techniques can be classified as either insight (vipassana) or concentration (samadhi). Mindfulness can be applied to either type of practice. Full absorption into a concentration practice lacks mindfulness because the mind is absorbed into the object of meditation. Andrew Bustamante is correct that a lot of the apps and practices in the mainstream are useless for overcoming strong emotions or rewriting the thinking process. Concentration practices are good for bypassing other experiences or negative thoughts. They are not a long term solution for change but they can be helpful for creating more calm in one’s life.
Well he does say he’s a CIA spy, sooo I don’t know why we’d be listening to a CIA spy about meditating. WTF would he know about it anyway?
@@isisaphrodite3585 They need to learn how to overcome fear. I would say he knows a lot about the mind.
So, the CIA just lets former CIA operatives explain how things actually work in the “real world “ I’ll have to meditate on this….
I'm not LGBTQ!++ whatever but the dude's hair has probably had too much hairspray over the years I think. It's likened to chroming or HuffnPost 😂😂😂
Meditation does work! I've been doing it for 6 years, even on a bad day it helps! The Buddha new this 2,500 years ago!
This guy dismisses mindfulness but then at the end of the video describes exactly what mindfulness is. Thankyou for show8ng who to never take seriously.
Yeah, this guy is a joke.
I caught that too 😆
No, for me he’s right, when I meditate in the morning, when I have a lot of anxiety, I just can’t focus on my respiration… but when I create or journaling, my anxiety disappears.
@sentient_part try focusing on the anxiety itself, the sensation Without the story you associated with it. Sit with that sensation and ask yourself, can I sit here and be with it and accept it without trying to change it?
And if you have anxiety in the morning, try to spend energy, instead of meditating first, try physical exercise, then breathwork then meditate.
I’ve been saying there are a couple of grifters who are trying to enter the podcast wellness space and he’s definitely one of them. This video just proves my point “medication doesn’t work” get this fool outta here man
I never buy what he says. Not sure why I even clicked. Lol
In meditation, I'm NOT distracted from a problem. Instead my mind goes into a flow state of creative solutions. Its awesome.
Youre wrong on this one Andrew.
Reference Chris Bledsoe, Sedhguru, etc.
It did not start well with speading the misunderstanding that the two halves of the brain is the logical and emotional parts. This is an old misconception.
Also meditation is one of the most effective ways of reducing fear.
Yes it does! You know what works even better. Praying! I don't think people realize the incredible power of literally letting God handle your problems. It works! 🙏🏾
You are proof of the fact that religious people are by far the most gullible.
There are several types of prayer: petitionary, non-petitionary discursive, non-discursive. What did you use?
Is part of this deciding you don't care about the outcome? That seems difficult and unwise, but I agree it would remove fear and anxiety.
Amen🙏🏾☺️👍🏾
@@tim57243 I use the format of the Lord's Prayer as Yahuah Christ taught. Go directly to God. Worship our creator, acknowledge that the words we bind on earth are bound in heaven. Forgive and repent to make my heart right then I petition for the holy spirt to come. Then.... I go to town! Jesus we can do all the miracles that he did. So ! Declare and decree blessings over my life , claiming the prophecies and the promises of God over my life. Then I start killing demons! I come against demonic forces , curses , monitoring spirits ... basically I don't know the Theological term , But I pray on OFFENSE against Satan using scripture and Psalms just like Jesus did on the mount and Buffy the Vampire slayer! From financial delay , to depression , relationships there are promiss from God on every subject. When we speak these promise we activate power and our desires manifest as we become connected with God's divine will. It's easy !!!
@@tim57243I'm not sure the theology term for being a demon slayer, but praying OFFENSIVELY against negative things in the spirit realm works! I use the format that Yahuah Christ teaches.
I first acknowledge the creator of the universe then I ask for forgiveness and forgive others & release them. Then I petition for holy Spirit to come in. That's when I go to town! Praying OFFENSIVELY using words in scripture, promises of God and Psalms to slay the demons! I pray against spiritual attacks like depression, financial delay or obstacles. God says we humans have the power to bless and perform miracles just like Christ. So I do that.
As proof I posted this response earlier but is was deleted. Why delete a comment that teaches others how to pray? What's the harm in that?
It's because it works!!
They know what we can do when we consider the spirit realm in our circumstances.
Hope it works for you brother!! ❤️
Meditation works to bring things up from the unconscious to the conscious. That's why meditation is painful. So it relaxes you but indirectly.
“10 minutes of meditation a day never hurt anybody”
- Transcendental meditation works.
- Also somatic tracking is an incredible mindset tool for anxiety and any discomfort.
- Silent prayer (not religious) which is just relaxing without thought works.
They all give the brain and system the ability to think clearly in stressful situations.
Sometimes you benefit from clearing out all stress before taking any action, to better know what triggers you.
What song prayer are you talking about,?? Silent prayer
Want to kick anxietys ass? Stop caring about it. Whatever your scared of, tell yourself "bring it". Meet it head on mentally and in that moment dismiss it as boring. Arent you tired of it constantly beating up your nerves? Unless its chemical you have the power to perceive it differently. Perception is a powerful tool. Change the chip in your brain and you can change your life.
You solved it.. people go to years of therapy for anxiety and coping skills but they should just read your post and their problems will go away. Not hosts advice to slowly expose and educate yourself. You're a genius!
I'll try your advice.
From personal experience, meditation works for me. When I don't meditate, I realize how much meditation helps me. I’ve made decisions in the past out of fear when I wasn't meditating. Meditation puts the files in order in my mind. It calms my entire energy system, making me more tolerant and unbothered by the things that normally irritate me. It does much more.

My anxioty comes from my left brain, analytical side. Not my emotional side.
Haha exactly. This guys advice will drive you right into overthinking. Do you also feel uncomfortable watching that video. Logic is done when you have real anxiety or compulsory disorder. Trying to find some hold in logic explanations makes it worse. If your logic says everything is good but you don't feel like that, you try to find another logic. This game will never end. This is only solvable on the emotional side. Where is love fear will go away. And focus on body sensations.
Use the mind to control the body (like slow breathing) and then the mind will be controled by the body. Relax your body and surrender that there is no logic solution, only love can help.
I get anxiety but not like i used to because Ive learned to self soothe
Nice word salad to disingenuously discredit how awesome and useful meditation is. The true purpose of this dishonest man is to mislead.
Great information. Thank you
What a great peace of advice, thank you so much 🎉❤
Thus is truly helpful. Thank you.
Meditation in it self doesn’t help you improve but it can get you in a good mindset to be more productive to make change that he is talking about
Merci à vous !
As a fellow entrepreneur the other thing I journal are contingency plans if “it” is the worst possible scenario (which it rarely is). Once I know what my possible responses are, I can let the anxiety go.
This is a great video
What I like about your approach is that you are able to take methods and ideas and simplify them succinctly.
I just watching Beyond Skinwalker Ranch on the TV & this guy was on that program at same time as I watching this interview..I didn't even realize at first..What a coincidence
I have always been and will always be onto you G-man
Meditation is really effective against fear and anxiety, but I think I know what he is trying to say - as most of his other advice seems pretty sound.
Regular meditation, and in particular mindfulness practices, is precisely the thing that increases your ability to do the "traffic cop"-thing and all the other things he's talking about. I suspect that many people will not be able to practice any of the solutions he's offering without a regular meditation practice in place first.
However, in the moment when you are triggered by something, there is absolutely the possibility of "bypassing" - which would be to not use your mindfulness to meet, observe and hold space for the uncomfortable emotions as they come up in order to do the things you need to do - but to sit down and simply do a meditation on visualizing waves or something in order to suppress the emotions and feel calm in your body to escape them.
Now in principle even this doesn't necessarily need to be harmful, if you from that calm place manage to take the next step of actually meeting the emotions and go into the "exposure therapy" part (then it can be a helpful way to avoid panicking), but if you never do that second part you will of course never be free of the patterns as they will simply wait for the next time to arise.
I suspect this guy has seen a lot of people getting stuck in step 1 so he is very eager to push them into step 2, and perhaps forgetting that for many people step 1 is necessary in order to get to step 2.
For my ref->
---------------------------
Summary and Breakdown of Key Points:
Understanding Fear and Anxiety:
Fear and anxiety are whole-brain responses involving both the left (logical) and right (emotional) hemispheres of the brain. Both hemispheres receive sensory inputs simultaneously, but the right hemisphere, which processes information through biases and assumptions, reacts faster than the logical left hemisphere.
Left vs. Right Brain Processing:
The right brain processes information quickly based on emotions and biases, while the left brain takes longer as it relies on rational thought and systematic problem-solving. This difference in processing speed often leads to immediate feelings of fear or anxiety before the logical brain can provide a rational perspective.
Physiological Response:
The right brain’s quicker response results in immediate physical symptoms of fear or anxiety (e.g., increased heart rate, sweating). The left brain eventually provides a rational explanation, which can lead to a sense of relief once it catches up.
Coping Strategies:
Delay Conclusion: Allow a few seconds of discomfort before reaching a conclusion to give the logical brain time to process the information and provide a rational counter to the emotional response.
Stress Inoculation and Exposure Therapy: Practice taking small risks regularly to increase risk tolerance and improve the ability to process anxiety and fear rationally.
Avoid Meditation as a Crutch: Mainstream meditation techniques can serve as distractions rather than solutions, preventing genuine improvement in handling anxiety.
Journaling:
Journaling helps by engaging both hemispheres of the brain. Recording moments of anxiety and the logical counterarguments can provide insights and reduce irrational fears over time. This practice helps identify patterns and provides evidence to counteract future anxiety.
Decision-Making Under Stress:
Recognize that most decisions do not require immediate action. Allowing time for the logical brain to process information can lead to better decision-making. Understand that the sense of urgency is often false, and taking a moment to breathe and think can reduce stress.
Key Takeaways:
Fear and anxiety stem from the brain's simultaneous processing of sensory inputs, with the emotional brain reacting faster than the logical brain.
Giving yourself time to let the logical brain catch up can help mitigate irrational fears.
Practicing stress inoculation and exposure therapy, rather than relying on meditation, can build resilience against anxiety.
Journaling can document and rationalize anxious moments, providing a record that helps manage future anxiety.
Most decisions can wait, allowing time for a balanced, less stressful response.
Great advice! Something I’d like to add is that meditation practices like do nothing meditation and Vipashyana are actually bringing you closer to experience. In order to do these practices it’s easier if you have a good concentration. To get better concentration you can use a visualization as an object. So even the visualization could be helpful with bringing you closer to experience eventually.
Learn a panic attack breathing method. Breathing in fully in 2 quick breaths (filling the solar plexus area) and breathing out slowly (purse lips) for longer than the you breathed in. 2 in 7 out. Activates the parasympathetic and eliminates fear/ anxiety instantly. Also lowers blood pressure if used for 3 minutes or more.
Meditation can be used to find out who you truly are and this eliminates fear / anxiety in your life. It can slow down your negative reactions naturally until they don’t even happen anymore. Leads to a loving non-judgmental peaceful perspective.
Anxiety takes way longer than a few seconds to switch.
Meditation rewired my entire nervous system. I use it in therapy practice in a 30 day rehab. I have clients who are unresponsive to their daily therapy, become addicted to meditation. They won't go to groups but ask for sage and ten minute guided meditation. So..... Maybe the ancient wise ones know what's up.
Could please send me tutorials on how to particularly you meditate? would be much grateful
i meditate and i'm not going to stop because I've been doing it for 8 years everyday and it has become my way of life its now a habit. i do believe Andrew that its not going to make a big difference because i learned that actions change your brain much more effectively. when you meet someone who has social anxiety its because the practiced avoiding people and there brain is trying to keep them safe so they don't take action and then that becomes there habit. exposure therapy will help but you have to practice often. feel it to heal it get used to doing things uncomfortable and don't over do it take small steps so you don't burn out and turn back to what is comfortable.
Andrew, you forgot the sense of balance. It happens in the vestibular system. We have way more than 5 senses.
What if you use meditation to put yourself into those experiences that make you feel fear or anxiety as a first step before taking the physical risk? I have learned to face some fears but I also meditate and I'm curious to know your thoughts on this.
Eye enjoy listening to you speak about how the CIA trained you it's extremely practical and intelligent
And yet what you said about meditation is not a fact or true as one that lives in a meditative flow state and knows from direct experience the power of meditation also known as the art listening in silence for maintaining mental clarity free of all belief programming
I am not exactly an expert but mindfulness is not a distraction, I believe it is exactly to be aware of whats going on and get highly involved. Although he is right, exposure will make you more “tolerant” to stress. But what about people that suffer from chronic anxiety? Body can only take an amount of stress and waiting is not exactly an option to some or many people
Thanks, Doug, good guest and good session. I like to phrase what Andrew says as "press the pause button". It helps in many ways. -- Also, see my note about why Andrew did NOT insult meditation as a reply under kevthepoet's post.
I think “why” and “how it works” is more helpful than anything.
@Doodlefisher I'm not sure the theology term for being a demon slayer, but praying OFFENSIVELY against negative things in the spirit realm works! I use the format that Yahuah Christ teaches.

Hope it works for you brother!! ❤️
@@ministryofhealingfarm thanks! That’s very important to keep a spiritual mindset because I believe and not only because I believe but humans throughout history have have sought meaning in spiritual terms because I believe and not only I believe but because we think eternally as humans that praying will address God or whatever there is out there that people believe in and he will help us. It’s a fact that prayer does work and when praying or in meditation that we reset and find the answers. I really do believe there is some spiritual force and multiple forces battling over our minds. I see it every day and even have a lot of unusual things like a premonition or prophecy happen and it’s increasing in intensity as we live in the time period Jesus talked about with the two world wars and people being afraid of the rising of the sea etc. government doesn’t understand this because government role is to take Gods place as what happened after the Garden of Eden story. So it will work because the force that wants us to succeed is allowing us to be tested so that not we worked for it but that we fought for righteousness within ourselves. God Bless and I hope to see your prayers answered and continue fighting the fine fight!
Don't know what he's saying about meditation, I tthink it's one of the best things you can do in life, however he's right about writing stuff down. The healing capacity of writing is still very underrated imo.
I disagree with the title of the video but the explanation resonates. Knowing the how and why can be helpful. And it ACTUALLY supports a particular How/Why explanation on effective meditating. It think the title was meant to pull us in. Klickbait?
I was wondering if left-handed people have a more developed left side of the brain than the right and if they can rationalize reality more quickly, and if therefore they are less emotional and suffer less from anxiety
Actually the left hand is run by the right brain.
Meditation is essential
Meditation has many uses. I use meditation and yoga before an exercise session, it helps me focus and mitigates injury and ending up too sore. Before I used to do some basic stretching and then right into the exercises, I ended up in a lot of pain as a result.
Any tips on how to erase echoes of emotional feelings ( reliving what someone could of experienced) caused by witnessing a traumatic event? My logical brain knows I am safe, but my body keeps reacting.This has given rise to depression and feelings of anxiety.Thank you
I saw a podcast with a neurologist that said the brain and body experiences traumatic memories the same as when they happen. In the book The Body Keeps Score the author says that antidepressants like Prozac (SSRIs) didn’t work with war veterans who had PTSD. I would look into psychedelic treatments. Watch videos on veterans discussing Ibogaine for addiction or ayahuasca for purging trauma. Maybe even ketamine treatment or a hero dose of psilocybin. But I wouldn’t recommend doing any of these things on your own without the help of a specialist or professional. Set, setting & mindset are vitally important for these entheogens. I hope you find the help you need and heal. 🙏🏼
Try Andrew Huberman's Journaling Protocol to work with past traumatic eotions....
Somatic experience!! It is not the brain it is the body. Trauma is in the body.
‘Panic Attack Breathing Technique’. See my earlier comment.
Meditation stabilizes the right brain and emotion by postponing reactive thoughts. Thank you for providing brain science on that fact.
People laying on their death bed may need crutches before running a marathon.
Many types of meditation have been working for millions of people for at least 4 thousand years in the east and for many thousands in the west for at least 60 years
U can meditate and journal. Dont sweat it, and if you do, know that it will soon pass. And pay attention to your breath ❤
Meditation is not something you do, Meditation is an experience
Totally agree but I wouldn't disregard meditation as that's how you get present with your decision making so you don't make irrational ones
My first thought: meditation works like a charm. How good can the upcoming content be now?
It appears that Andrew is only familiar with the visualization method and a diluted mindfulness method of meditation, which - when practiced correctly - are both highly beneficial for going beyond emotion and the executive mind up to the brain wave frequencies of gamma, high gamma and lambda. As a matter of fact, stress inoculation and exposure therapy are beginner-levels of meditation in the Shaolin Zen and Dzogchen traditions, with the qualifier that the mentioned traditions must be learnt from someone properly trained in them. Meditation is not about escape. It is about becoming more present, yet grounded, alert and functional.
Andrew's explanation of Journaling, however, is spot on. Well-said in that regard.
Meditation works, and is scientifically proven to work. 💯
Are you Chris Bopst family from Va? Used to have a radio show called The Boost Show on WRIR?
Someone please send this guy to a Vipassana retreat. He actually thinks all meditation is distraction…
I think he's confusing meditating with the thinking brain (which can make things worse), with transcendental meditation which has transformational benefits and can rewire and overcome monkey mind habits of fear, anxiety and reactionary emotions.
Enlightenment comes as deep breathing is slowed and the clutter of the mind subsides, without force; just calm awareness and void of thought.
The last person I trust is someone from.the CIA
Nearly everyone in comments thinking they must defend meditation.
Obvious they missed the point/s in the interview.
I'd suggest reply video. Stop the "spiritual bypass"
9:05 that makes sense as to why the meditation never worked
Regular meditation practice develops the skills he describing, namely witnessing ability, ie to remain calm and just observe but not react to the thoughts and feelings that arise in you so that you can use the best parts of the left and right brain To more consciously choose your course of action.
I’m not sure if he’s saying meditation doesn’t work or wouldn’t be practical in the heat of the moment but the skills he’s describing meditation helps develop I find this an inconsistent point of view.
Mmmm. I get it, but I don't like it. Can you use mindfulness to stay in the stressful thought and work through it?
Yes ..after a while of doing mindfulness meditation you can watch thoughts and feelings arise..and not attach to them too much..that's the point..not to kill or control your thoughts
I disagree about meditation, which teaches you to pause and be able to handle emotions while the left brain catches up. It helps me greatly with emotions, including anxiety.
One needs the mediation techniques to slow down enough to recognize you're using the right brain or emotion mind. DBT 101
I think it depends on the person... it depends on the meditation.
Connecting with your true self is a crutch? The more you phone home, the more it becomes your default, not a crutch. Try Anchor the Light and make your own conclusion.
Distracting ourselves from anxiety doesn’t mean we’ve learned to cope with anxiety. Wish he could share more information about how tp cope with logical brain
Journal and slowly expose yourself to what makes you anxious.
I trust scientific papers which states meditation works.
He's has an interesting perspective about "meditation" but the title "meditation doesn't work" is really misleading and I don't think it aligns with what he has to say.
Meditation is the technique to achieve the state of solving problems.. you don elude them, you just confront them..
And with Neville Goddard tecniwue, you can even change them.
❤
start watching at min 10
Great information. Robert Greene has a great book that explains this. "The Laws of Human Nature" and LTC Grossman also has a great book that goes deep called "On Combat". In response 😂to those saying that he is against meditation. Words are important. If you are listening to what he is saying. You will understand that he is saying meditation works for a different purpose. He is trying to explain how to overcome fear, anxiety & stress quickly. I understand meditation from a Buddhist perspective and I meditate for a different purpose. Mingure Rinpoche talks about controlling the monkey mind through meditation etc. I do agree that meditation practitioners do use meditation as a crutch. Believing they must clear the mind or that they will find bliss and happiness through meditation. Agreed you can improve your life through meditation. He then explains that what would be better would be journaling. I'd say if you are trying to process and understand your fears, anxiety & stress so that you can overcome them. Therapists will tell you that he is correct,and that it is a very great method to do this. I think many can read the title and immediately jump to agreement or defense of a position and will miss the what he is saying.
Meditation does work iv been doing it on and off for years and notice the benefits don’t let these people fool you! but I will say there not quick fix to anything start small 1-2 minutes and build if that
Andrew has painfully little knowledge about meditation. Zen meditation is about detaching from your thoughts and feelings and observe them without judgement. Exactly what is required to take the mind back from emotions.
The ultimate zen makes you a homeless, penniless monk free of belongings.. not very effective or powerful in the world, I think this is for people wanting to take action, not those looking to be effectless.
Yeah I agree with the rest of y'all. this guy, I like his idea on things when it comes to CIA but other than that, in reference to meditation, it's like come on guy...meditation is super powerful and it does not take you away. Vipassana style, literally gets you closer to reality in a peaceful way..by way of observing the reality as it is Not as I would like it to be 🙏
Meditation on a basic or "lateral level"? Left side of the brain is faster for chess players once rhe Comprehensive learning complete. Chess is a 2 brain academic sport that is still under-rated on a cognitive level. Men primarily use the logical side while controlling their emotions like a poker player. Thus the "poker-fsce" phrase in order to distract your opponent from "reading your hand by your "comfort face" or excited winning look.
I'm not just a Uniform
I use meditation and also creative visualization and also affirmations. I combine them all and it works. I’ve been an absolute fearmonger my entire life. I know what works and I’m always looking for the best newest thing for the spirit and mostly my connection with God by the way, anything coming out of the CIA is highly suspect.🤣. We are all energetic beings who are connected to higher dimensions that is to say our source, which is God our angels our guides all help.❤

If it works so well, why are you watching these videos?
Meditation only works with soundwaves.
That's not actually correct about the left and right brain. It's just what they used to think.
His definition of "ALL" of the meditation systems is inaccurate, there are many different types of mediation, active exercises where you use your right brain in imagination but also passive exercise that allow yu to just witness your thoughts and let both or either side of your brain flow naturally.
He's not wrong though for most of it.
I am a freestyle musician who plays the energy Surrounding me....

Don't think! Obey and act!
The mentality of cannon fodder.
Interesting. But rappers continue to make more rap music because that is their genre and what they are good at. Harp players make more harp music because that is the instrument they play. I don't think it's because of how their brains work
I "journal" immediatly after I meditate. I keep 3×5 notecards nearby. Good stuff. Otherwise my left (analytical) brain distracts me.from creative genius.
Fact is Broca area that generate speech is on the left, so that supports his claims of left side is logical. And race conditions between left and right is very plausible for two entities or even for one to dominate the other. Also Wernicke area is on the left so left is heavy logical side.
It works , just not practiced and has a stigma
He doesn't know what Meditation Is.
Click bait?
When you read the project gateway cia released papers from 2017 and shows you how scientifically it works with 100% proof. A little contradicting by this guy and who clearly meditates himself.
Hard to keep the left side and right side straight in this conversation. :)
😂 True!
Thats absolute BS what he said about meditation and mindfulness. Yes there are meditation techniques that distract the mind but mindfulness is all about being present without impulsive reactivity. Its about training the mind to react from a place of presence and clarity.
I bet he's not who he says he is
