“When you love something, it tells you all (of) it’s secrets “ Love That!!!

[@siobhancoates2043]

Such a calm and wise man. I love that he never worries. And his beliefs about the Universe. He really resonated with me

[@lyndahndiwa703]

It an honor to be listen to this podcast loved the interview. Take home" worry belongs to tomorrow regret belong s to yesterday happiness is here now "

[@MsMyaki]

This CD has three separate relaxation/meditation sessions on it kzbin.infoUgkxzpa8CIfZcihW4Z0F_ja0QF3W9KIatrsq guided by a very pleasant and direct male voice. Unlike so many other products of its type, this CD does not have bad synthesizer music, does not feature a phony or affected style of narration, and does not make any bogus claims to be subliminal or to re-train the brain or any of that balderdash. What you get is 1. a guided meditation for getting into a pleasantly relaxed state of body awareness while taking a stroll (superb for those easing back into a fitness routine slowly after an illness or injury) 2. A nice long breath-awareness relaxation session that if followed diligently can put you into very deep states of full-body relaxation and mental calmness, and 3. a buddhist-inspired meditation session designed to help you develop and maintain feelings of loving kindness toward not just yourself and your friends, but toward people you don't even like. The CD makes no claims to be designed for advanced meditators or for buddhists or hindus/yoga practitioners looking for very deep and esoteric stuff. It is geared more toward the average person who just wants to develop the habit of relaxation and stress relief through natural, healthy means. him, if you happen to be reading this, keep up the good work fella, and I love your accent. I would also like to note that I have never fallen asleep while listening to this product. I would like to kindly suggest to the reviewer who said this CD makes him fall asleep, that he might want to get checked to see if he has a sleep disorder, or if he is simply not setting aside ample time for restful sleep at night. A healthy person getting adequate rest at night should be able to go into deep states of mental relaxation without dozing off, if not all the time, then most of the time.

I didn't want this interview to end. Thank you Jay 🙏

[@eugeneotieno5873]

Me too

[@GillianChangaBudhram]

What a fantastic story about the driver who loved his job. So simple, but true.

[@se7890]

When he says he doesn't worry, he's truly speaking to the fact that he's achieved a higher consciousness. He just doesn't know that's what it is. It's not dissociative, it's just higher consciousness, which is what I've been studying and why I'm here. Great videos Jay!

[@svijetmeditacije1133]

This podcast episode is the best episode in the world!!! 🔝🔝🔝👌👏👏👏 Thank you so so much!!! 🙌🙏❤️❤️🫶

[@charliemays7631]

[@eashwarmurthy]

Worry belongs to tomorrow. Regret belongs to yesterday. Happiness is here and now.

30:50 Best Answer I've ever heard about why we tend to not believe in ourselves🌸🌸🌸🌸...

[@michael_busby]

Such an inspirational video, Jay! This may just be your best one yet!! It really hit me when he said take it one day at a time, he's absolutely right. I needed this video today!🙏🏼

[@amalaugustine3266]

This is a amazing episode with Bob Parson accidently noticed worth every second, Not sure about the medical reasoning and its further consequences but the real life insights will be always close to my heart.

[@acajudi100]

Thank you for your service. I am 80, and I live in Queretaro now since age 79. I invest in non begging and respectful people, so they can pay it forward. I am not greedy, nor do i love scammers, dry beggars, cruel and deadly demons. I am blessed, if I can take care of my needs first, and with my excess, I love to help non beggars help themselves. I will never be a millionaire share my excess, billionaire or zillionaires, because I share my excess, but I am not a fool..

[@AnalieBee]

[@alihecker7487]

Definitely could've watched 4 more hours of this interview. Thank you so much!🙏

[@BellaVlogsLife]

Thanks 🙏 this is genuinely my favourite of all of your podcast uploads. I can relate so very much, as somebody with complex ptsd. It has dominated my life for 30+ years and I’ve always said “I’ll never heal, the wounds are too deep” but for the first time ever I believe I can heal. And so I’m deciding to go and do that!!! Thank you! It means a lot 🙏

[@heavenlywarning]

*Thank you for this video. Really helped me a lot. Keep up the great work! 💪*

[@inbeenergy]

Excellent insight. Even this billionaire went on a journey to heal his trauma. We are all human, and we all deserve grace. I listened on Google podcasts and came to show appreciation here.

[@siyandankundla-mgudlwa1888]

Very wise, it is so sad that politics and absurd wars happens and afterwards people get trashed like disposables, I am fighting my own pstd and will like to know where or who treated him with the ayahuasca and psicodelics this will be a very valuable information, thanks and keep up the good work ❤

[@QueenNajwa]

This was a really beautiful conversation. I’m glad that he came home and was able to get two other men to that place is well! Thank you to everyone who signs up and risk their lives and time away to fight for our country. I hope you’re able to find healing like this man was!!! ❤

[@AnnTsungMD]

Rather than dwelling on past mistakes or worrying about what may happen in the future, we can focus on making the most of the present moment. This can help us feel more content and fulfilled in our daily lives. When we let go of worry and live in the present, we may find that our worries gradually fade away. Instead, we can focus on taking positive steps towards our goals and enjoying the journey along the way.

[@ishapatel2751]

I think it is one of the best interviews I came across.....😍❤️

[@gracejasinthpriyadarsini2489]

It ended too soon! Loved it!!! ❤

[@Danielbucks944]

I'm so happy I made productive decisions about my finances that changed my life forever,hoping to retire next year... Investment should always be on any creative man's heart for success in life.

[@martinmomu9141]

the best decision I ever made in my life was investing in financial market. Trust me guys, it pays a lot. I have come to realize that trading bitcoin is more profitable than holding it and waiting for it to skyrocket. If you trade without a expert then you are gambling and have no business in trading..

[@roberternest4641]

I have loss severally trying to trade on my own. Can someone tell me the best way to win instead of losing more?

[@arktom7335]

trading with an expert is the best strategy and also profitable, Newbies who are not aware of how crypto truly works and wish to make profits from it, I would advise to invest with a professional like Fergus waylen, It helps secure and minimize the possibilities of losses.

[@charles2395]

Well, you are saying the fact. I invested $4,000 with fergus Waylen. and earned $12,000 in 7 working days.

[@lea5898]

If i have not experienced this I would say it's a lie but I've made withdrawals few days ago and that's one thing I find difficult and impossible with other brokers but manager fergus Waylen makes it possible.

[@cynthiac735]

Love it......no worry! When you've been through so many challenges and have made it through and know that there's a Greater Power/Source involved, you are learning to find peace in the midst of storms or lose your sanity. It's a choice and I'm glad that I found it! My only child/son was in Hawaii, during my divorce process with his father in 2008, and tampered with the magic mushrooms. Not sure who and what was totally involved and honestly happened to him, but he returned home in a psychosis. I learned that he was emotionally out of balance and whatever was ingested, heightened his emotions x 10 and was a bad trip. Not just anyone can take the psychedelics....just sharing. Thank you, Jay and Bob!!

[@Maxhindle]

Amazing video !! we all deserve to live an authentic and purposeful life, what ever that may mean to you

[@22kelseydillabaugh]

Thanks for your service to you and your friends Bob. Your heart in wanting to protect your country or carry honor in your name is not unseen here. I’m glad you and your friends have been able to heal in ways you brought the war home within. You deserve peace just as you fought for us to have on American soil. Thank you again to you and your friends Bob. Thank you to all veterans.

[@jenniferjason193]

His amazing to listen and learn from and his amazing wife 😊

[@JabbaBlue]

So wonderful to learn about this person who is behind Godaddy. I’m so glad he’s able to find what helped him with his PTSD and Congratulations on his success and the now the joy he has around his kids at his healthiest and wealthiest state:)

[@Sirnewtzz]

He said congratulations at 6:03 😅. You don’t congratulate someone on something that happened in the past. Sometimes silence is enough. Just listen with your eyes and stop trying to be a nice guy. Stop fake smiling too, keep a straight face.A straight face brings out the fire in you.

Not worrying about anything would help in living an easier life that's for sure

[@AnnTsungMD]

While it's true that not worrying about anything can make life easier in some ways, it's also important to remember that a certain amount of concern and awareness is necessary for our well-being and success. Avoiding all worries can lead to a lack of motivation or action, and may cause problems to go unaddressed. It's all about finding a balance - acknowledging and addressing concerns when necessary, while also not allowing worry to consume us.

[@FinnBarr-lg8rr]

Live a life Make occurrences Make it meaningful In itself it already is For there is always something so special about And then keep going for what else but to keep going!!

Bob Parsons is not "just a billionaire"....so now I'm listening...

[@mayahmorgenstern6063]

Dear Mister Parson,. I'm a doctor in France and totally believe having an experience of conscious opening as you did with psychodelics is life changing when suffering of PTSD of any origin. I think that, very interestingly we are now able to induce in minutes with a specific musical procedure for instance a state of transe that has the same effects as psychodelics and has no use of chemicals. Do you know about it? Is also synchronizes the two lobes of the brain and inhibits the activity of the frontal cortex. As an influençable man, would you look into it to help also développe this tool if it seems worthwhile to you? Sincerely yours

[@tessawilsonart]

Love

[@SustainableSolutions4185]

I made a choice today to try the things he has. I have feared them and they could easily be the last key to the release.

[@surya_vy]

Have you ever considered doing an episode with Jordan Peterson? I'd look most forward if this was a possibility!
