    Episode 44: Does the Body Matter in Spiritual Awakening?

    Episode 44: Does the Body Matter in Spiritual Awakening?

    In this episode, Kavi invites Amoda Maa to discuss the role of the body in awakening. Together they explore how to reconcile the deepest realization of true nature (the formlessness of Being) with the unavoidable fact that we experience ourselves as form (body, sensations, perceptions).

    They also discuss whether the well-being of the body has an impact on the spiritual journey, and whether awakening has a direct impact on the body.

    How to Use Music to Boost Motivation, Mood & Improve Learning

    How to Use Music to Boost Motivation, Mood & Improve Learning
    In this episode, I describe how your brain and body are fundamentally wired to perceive and respond to music and how those responses can be leveraged to improve your mood, allow for processing sad emotions and enhance learning and performance. I explain the data showing how music can increase motivation for cognitive or physical work, what specific music has been shown to enhance cognitive performance, and whether silence or music is more effective in enhancing focus while studying. I also discuss how specific musical pieces can rapidly reduce anxiety, as well as certain prescription medications. I explain how listening to certain types of music can improve various health metrics (e.g., heart rate). Finally, I discuss how music helps to enhance neuroplasticity (rewiring of brain connections), thereby improving learning and memory. Whether you sing, play an instrument or enjoy listening to music, this episode provides numerous science-informed tools for using music to enhance productivity, mood, emotional states, and overall enjoyment of life.

    The Power of Your Thoughts with Dr. Dicken Bettinger

    The Power of Your Thoughts with Dr. Dicken Bettinger

    In this podcast, Dr. Dicken Bettinger, a licensed psychologist, discusses The 3 Principles as discovered by Sydney Banks. He explains how understanding these principles can be transformative, moving people from feeling like victims to having a deeper understanding of how their thinking creates their feelings. He emphasizes that even the most successful people can feel miserable because no external source can create lasting happiness. Instead, he explains that people can wake up to their own innate well-being by gaining insight and realization.

    The podcast also discusses the rising levels of anxiety and depression in young adults and teenagers. Dicken highlights how it is negative thinking that leads to tension, stress, and upset because people are looking to external sources to find well-being. In truth, well-being can only be found inside them. He shares a story of a young girl with anxiety who found relief by letting go of her anxious thinking and discovering her innate well-being.

    You will learn how being present in the moment can help you be a part of the solution to the world's problems, rather than feeling constantly overwhelmed by them. We also discuss the transformational power of embracing the truth that we are all connected on a universal level.

    This podcast provides valuable insights into the connection between psychological and spiritual dimensions in life, and how understanding The 3 Principles can lead to greater well-being and consciousness. 

    Dr. Dicken Bettinger Ed.D, is a licensed psychologist retired and currently works as a psychological educator. He specializes in the connection between the psychological and spiritual dimensions of life. He leads webinars, classes, and training in psychological well-being in countries around the world. He also develops practitioners in The Three Principles understanding as discovered by Sydney Banks. He has been married 53 years, has two amazing children, and has four adored grandchildren.
