Follow your heart, for it knows your truest path, not your head. Yet how can you follow the subtle guidance of your heart rather than being pulled by the loud, rational chatter of your mind?

[@moonbeanification]

a feeling of freedom coupled with a sense of fear... perfect description of how it feels when we follow our heart ♥

[@poisonivxy6594]

Your help me a lot and I am only 10 years old

[@singinglawnchair]

I wish I had access to this stuff when I was 10 years old. I wish you the best of luck in your future. 💖

[@jenniferbrat]

i think it's great that someone as young as you are interested in this sort of stuff; i would have imagined that he had an audience of at least 18-21... regardless, you're in a good place if you're still around and i hope you continue to grow and make use of knowledge like this. :)

[@AngelWithoutWings111]

Started off finding your humorous videos hysterical and very entertaining, but I absolutely love your serious advice pieces. This one, so far, in particular. I really feel this concept will aid in a few big decisions I am currently faced with. Much love to you JP!

[@TheCarrifaery]

i love you JP.

[@AwakenWithJP]

+TheCarrifaery Thanks for the love :-)

[@yogaunity4797]

TheCarrifaery 🙏 I feel the Same 💓

[@josiahgil]

The Bible says regarding the spirit doing God's will, "the spirit is more than willing". It is the flesh that challenges us, the heart can be evil. lucifer said in his heart "I will be like the most high" his heart was wicked because his mind gave in to pride and jealousy. following the heart is only good if you let God transform your heart. many people have followed there heart and done evil things. so much wisdom in the bible. Also you have said many things I agree with, I just hope you would experience the undeserved peace I have even though I have sinned against my loving creator. God is pleading with us to seek him, he sent jesus to die for us in our place. Please make this decision for the love of your soul and eternity, I would like to see you in the place he has prepared for those who endured through evil, and remained righteous, forgiving, patient, and had long suffering. we must be like Jesus when he lived among his enemies, do not deny him. He is too deserving of your rendering and of your obedience for you too escape the judgements without his forgiveness and mercy. I say this because I love you, not to be condemning

[@tracym9472]

The authenticity of the heart. The arrogance of the mind. ♡

[@AbikoJapan]

Follow your heart, then put your mind to work FOR your heart.

[@tuesdaytaylor5031]

Interesting. When I'm following my heart I feel freedom and a sense of peace or comfort. The fear that exists in that moment is usually coming from my mind, but can be easily quieted by the peace because I recognize the power in the process of following my heart and my intuition. Thanks for sharing:)

[@joprescott1980]

I am so enjoying your eloquent combination of humour and sage words. Buried alive now for so long in the detritus of a life spent trying to 'get it right' to please others. Your words are helping me 'be' and enjoy instead of fearing the past and future. Thank you :-)

[@vecinossaratoga6069]

You're a poet

[@catrinachristina]

How anyone can "dislike" amazing free knowledge I'll never know, but I am very grateful for this help and you taking the time to make these videos :)

[@jonnewman7843]

Christina P You should ask yourself why you care that people disliked it.

[@lisgnell]

Jon Newman Why do you care that she cares that ppl dislike it? You should ask yourself why

[@superfluityme]

@@lisgnell Why do you care that Jon cares that Chirstina cares. Now all we need is for Christina to ask me the same question and we will have completed the cycle of youtube commenting and we will be at one with the internet. Then we will be able to experience the internet with love and not have to think at all and we will finally be free. :)

[@monamessner1702]

I just realized that I deeply appreciate you, JP my heart tells me to binge watch your videos

[@starlilyoracle]

I just learned that the heart is actually a spiral vortex muscle that sucks and propells our blood back thru our veins. I find this fascinating. It takes alot of courage to live from a heart centered place. The struggle is real haha.. but totally worth it. I appreciate your vulnerability and humor. I don't think I've disagreed with anything I've head you say so far in any of your videos. When we are children, before we get herded into school systems and brainwashed, it seems we naturally live from this heart centered place. I still remember the happiness I found and felt in the simplest of things before I went to school. It seems if we can get into this place of feeling.. where the soul lives.. we find that there is a beautiful calmness that exists and all the ways our external world may have told us we are "supposed" to be melts away.. whats left seems to be the truth. Us. I have a friend who had a heart transplant and he's never quite been the same. I wonder often what things are like for him now. Does he have two oversouls instead of just his own? Have they been swapped? Hmm.. I wonder. ... ♡

[@wednesdaysnow]

Who would thumbs down this perfect description of what it means to follow your heart?!

[@taragillette2189]

I listen to a lot of podcasters...searching for someone real, someone in alignment with living in their heart. I'm so glad my friend shared your vids with me and I kept listening to find the serious ones. Feels good to find you. Thank you for your service!!

[@mikem6562]

Mind-blowing JP. Please forgive the modern cliches and foul language, but for me, listening to you while concentrating to comprehend the depth of the subject-matter; it’s like word-porn mixed with mindfuck. You are truly gifted and I loved it. Thank you.

[@anitaaustralia]

Best answer to this question I've ever heard. Thank you! I feel like you're my friend even though I've never met you :) x

[@DrSales-zl3kq]

That explains why some ideas I get bore me and I don't act on and others I'm excited.

[@heartspacerelaxations6924]

Thank you JP, This is wonderful. I have felt a quiet pull towards helping others, healing, and public speaking, supporting small groups of men for many years as well as being close to nature, connected with community. Who knows what could happen, but I want to move with that as a guide and see where life takes me.

[@HanaR]

Applicable to many of your videos that I have watched: Thank you JP for facilitating the insights. Thank you for being. Thank you for being you. And thank you for following your heart. You are a great inspiration and example to many of us. Love & hugs.

[@josefinasadhaka3554]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ You are such an inspiration!!! So much love to you JP!!!

[@juliejroth29]

no one person has articulated this better for me, my deepest gratitude and love

[@amandahayman6807]

Such incredible wisdom. If everyone followed this guidance it would change the world.

[@meforyou8600]

Always a lot of beautiful advice dear JP. And I LOVE your spiky, bright sense of humour! Thank you for sharing, Anouche.

[@HeartFeltGesture]

Yes JP, mind is ego, Heart is Truth.

[@saigenrose1032]

Very Beautiful insight, Thank you Jp ☺👍

[@CarolineAnandSiddiqui]

Your heart is deceitful above all!

[@toderox]

Thank you for this JP! Wish you the best !

[@tuesdaytaylor5031]

Also I know that I will sometimes reject the safe and familiar to embrace the unknown because of self realization, AND for the sake of self preservation. Because sometimes that new and scary unknown is safer than repeating past mistakes.

[@gomezaddams6470]

Tuesday Taylor I hope you're joking because he is. he's a humor artist period a satire artist this is a joke. he's making fun of people who do this. So there's some truth to it yet you noticed he talked endlessly in a circle like some people who do this for real. He might have used some terms that might have pointed in a certain direction to some people who talk this way. it really wasn't meant to live your life by it was meant as a joke. people are funnier than I thought they were. And he's really funny and I wish I could go see him but I think I already missed him I needed more warning I had to put money away. and when you go see him it's not at the Yoga Center it's at the comedy club LOL

[@chinookvalley]

@@gomezaddams6470 He's a great analyst and comedian. Comedians should be the psychiatrists of the world. He really does understand therapy and what works. If you only find sarcasm here, you're missing the boat. wokeaf

[@najatrealty3841]

Thank you. I'll be moving to New Orleans soon. I've been contemplating this move for 2 years now but because I owned a house, I thought I couldn't. I just sold it and I l'm excited and scared at the same time. It feels good to be free.

[@JaysonT1]

Najat Marden, Realtor How did it turn out?

[@suzettewilliams6369]

Thank you very much for posting this. I'm going to move across the country, alone. This helped me out.✌

[@ginatucci201]

Update?

[@lindaclark9925]

Well. This is excactly what I needed. I'm impressed...as an artist, I know I can ....it's the negativity that has stopped me ..negativity from myself, from my job....it's insane that I've wasted so much time. Do your best thing in life, they say. I was pushing against the waves of...my own life...

[@rusne.]

hope you found the strength to go with the waves🩵🙏

[@nakeeshatower3214]

Ide like to say thank you to your heartand give it a hug. And ide like to say to your head, I didn't even know about that institute and if it weren't for awaken with JP I wouldn't have gotten gotten to see your show and would possibly have no clue who you are. Listing to your heart helped you catch more people's attention and that helped me and I'm going to help others and ,it was just a great step I love you universe 🤗💞

[@jelenakodzo5837]

simply as that ,it is why my heart can hear and even for a moment stop my mind not conducts my present moment,you speak from your heart ,I'm grateful to your heart ,thanks

[@shirleycolee861]

It's a feeling of excitement, not fear, that accompanies following the heart. The gut is pretty important too.

[@harmony8327]

I could listen to you everyday that's rare for me on most youtube channels and people thanks for making these videos I enjoy listening to you. Lol not the best writer but I do enjoy listening to you're thoughts

[@dulcesirenitainspiraciones7489]

Some people that are so ignorant about following the heart think that I am crazy because I follow my heart. But I completely understand that because they do not know nothing about that even I explain them how important is to follow the heart to be free. Thank you and I am glad I found you on KZbin, friend. You are so nice!!!

[@IHACKER316]

Brilliant video

[@Kainzo]

Thanks for being an amazing person, I like your funny and satirical stuff too

[@lindaclark9925]

This is absolutely superb.

[@NnaemekaAmamasi]

JP DAMMIT YOU SHOULD BE A GURU...THANKS BRO!!!!

[@trentonericify]

thanks man

[@8dutchmen]

I just want to let you know I love you man.

[@ohlottie]

My heart sure did tell me to like and share! I really enjoyed your sarcastic sense of humour, in combination with sharing your heart’s wisdom. Thank you! ❤️

[@bradleyakers5710]

I started watching the more comedic videos of your first, and then happened to stumble upon one of your more "real talk" videos I guess I could say. I just wanted to say thank you JP bc I have learned so much about myself. I'll probably end up with a decent question or two myself one day. Thanks again man.

[@bridgettegallagher3372]

I love it when you are funny and I seriously love it when you're serious

[@johnpickle9684]

Okay, so I have had this belief as long as I remember from as young as 19 that I needed to prove myself and become great! But over the years I have met many wonderful people who were happy having less. I couldn't accept having less so I would strive for more. I would never be truly happy. Until one day I decided to drive to the beach (pretty random.) Anyway, I did it! I stood there on an empty beach with a few people and I felt super happy, no stress, no money worries, absolutely felt safe and free. I felt like I could swim into the sea and swim to another island, or just remain and admire the awe of the fresh ocean air, the beach sand, the emptiness of not having to worry about life problems, and I just felt this feeling of relaxation. Almost the anxiety disappeared, it only returned after I stepped back into my car and drove home back to the life I was once living. I realised everytime I feel sad to drive to the beach and I would feel free again. I can't explain what that means too well. You have to experience it for yourself. By the way, since lockdown in the UK, and I've been wanting to go to the beach for 6 months in the UK. I've been respectful to those communities and avoided them. I really "feel" that I need to return and clear my thoughts and feelings. And start a fresh, wouldn't you agree? *Edit: to correct some misspellings.*

[@ginatucci201]

When i know im ignoring my heart call, i can feel my heart "leave" in a way. Thats kinda where ive been for awhile... missing it. I noticed when i always went with my heart, my face was shiny, i was giddy and excited and felt free. "For news of the heart, ask the face " i have not looked like myself lately..

[@rusne.]

oh this is so relatable, haven’t looked like myself lately either haha. whenever i choose following my mind and shut down my heart I end up feeling numb and empty. like everything is stagnant and lifeless. i hope you found the strength to follow your heart🩵🙏

[@lindaclark9925]

Ps....the video about gluten was what got me to here. I saw it a year ago. Going thru a bad time, I remembered it and looked it up. Laughed hysterically. Started noticing more comedy ones and then laughed the same. Then subscribed. Now....who listens to serious stuff....it turns out....I just did! A good blend .....creativity is life annnnd ....kindness

[@hamzasalahuddin]

Hi JP, I searched some keywords on KZbin for what I was looking for & your video came 10th in the search results, but I must say this is the No. 1 video for when confused to follow your heart or your mind when making a decision. God Bless

[@georgechyz4766]

Great! You're right on! You may find it helpful to know that most people are disconnected from their heart and can't understand what your talking about. I follow my heart and have written a few books about it. Thank you for noticing the fear that comes with the feeling of expansion/freedom. I hadn't put that together, but once you said it I totally felt the truth of it. Thank you very much! I also love the humble way you share.

[@annanorris1646]

George Chyz that's because most people are not ultra spiritual enough to have written books about their heart following lives like you..you are clearly more heart centredly spiritual than they are.

[@sarahholic]

I love my experience of you. Thank you for teaching me your compelling language and expanding my consciousness. Endless gratitude.

[@CameraGirl011]

Thank you so much! This is so insightful & helpful!

[@dstill3434]

Thanks for posting, I'm glad it came up in my feed. It's one synchronicity among many lately which is a massive blessing. After years of living entirely in my head and suffering dearly for it I'm finally starting to understand what it means to listen to my heart and it's leading me to some undeniable but exciting realizations about life and what it could be...Now I'm just trying to work hard and keep as much space as possible for this seed to grow and blossom.

[@diptishah9320]

Perfectly explained, thank you 😊❤️

[@sandrasieber5157]

This has been soooo helpful !! Yes yes yes! I feel both freedom and fear when I think about a curious option in my life! But I am afraid to take action because of the fear. I now know I’m following my heart and when I follow my heart joy follows me! Thanks for the clarification. This is so helpful. It’s not thoughts-it’s a feeling and you don’t know the outcome of the adventure just that you are courageous enough to take the first step!

[@BackgroundSoundLounge]

JP ! your own authenticity & ability to be a catalyst for others is not only required in the world, it is also what keeps the balance and infuse richness to all. Thank you for finding your authentic self through comedy & coaching (and perhaps many more things you do). If it's ok, I wanted to know what is your personal meditation practice? (mindfulness, zen, Tibetan, other) Keep it rrrrreal like you're doing brother : )

[@MichelleAOrefice]

Very interesting and very timely !! Thank you !

man, I hate that I have to watch this just to figure out how to follow my heart. My life gotta do a complete 180, and that shit sucks 'cuz I basically gotta run away from my family.

[@LifeLongSummer]

Well, how are you now?

[@HeartFeltGesture]

Me too! Are they narcissists like mine? Are you the empathic scapegoat too?

[@thirstyspirit9567]

So true, even watching resonates with me, thank you so much for breaking it down a little more, I can feel what my mind and what my heart are saying simultaneously. The heart is always the riskier decision, i wonder why that is and you pin pointed it yes, because it's progress.

[@rolandbruegger4482]

[@astridpollheimer3121]

thank you so much! It is excactly how I would describe in, freedom and fear

[@saveourtummies]

Thanks JP - your insights are so true. :)

[@AwakenWithJP]

I appreciate you watching my friend :-)

[@JobBouwman]

@AwakenWithJP The strength of the electromagnetic field has to do with the fact that your heart is a muscle. Do you also believe that my ass (gluteus) is wiser than my brain? (In my case this might be true, though...)

[@shamarbrown569]

They tell me think with my head not that thing in my chest/I'ma follow my💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗

[@kwasiwilliams5014]

Strange, following my feelings seem to get me I trouble. But when I keep my intellect over my emotion I don't make rash emotional decisions. At the same time using my mind can lead me to do things I wouldn't normally do or don't want to do and it and that can be beneficial. Now that I'm older following my heart does cause me to fear myself because the spontaneousness of following my emotions is so risky when you have a lot to lose like your freedom. I really love how you broke this down, it helps me understand the struggle of heart and mind and get a better balance. Subscribed

[@kwasiwilliams5014]

tlascar I was under the impression that our feelings came from the heart.

[@noctunoctura2408]

I get it … I’ve thought a lot about this myself and came to the conclusion that you need both…it’s gets deep and I could get all scientiphilosophical… but it’s how we see things .. which then enters us … through every pore but mainly the eyeball ones… then the whole light and information thing chemicalelectric ( made that up ) signals or hormones then nervous system stuff then our heart n stuff and air , lungs n stuff then we exhale a signature of our intent each moment..and use our heart which gifts us something that allows us to focus our vision and intent …with our mind… it’s not about using the heart and not the mind … it’s about not using your head without your heart… or listening to our heart and using our mind to do that ..can’t fly a bird with only one wing…
