Your channel is a gold mine!
Good morning my Great Mentor Much Love ♥️😀🎶
one of my favorites:)
What are those few more powerful ways than meditation?
Meditation is not about controlling the mind. You can't control it. Control is ego. What you want to do is not let the thoughts affect you and instead find the source of stillness that you are at your core. True meditation is about relinquishing all control, accepting / watching everything as it is, and to just be.
Love your channel!
thanks for the insights (:
I am feeling very blessed to have found your channel Brian. I appreciate you and all your hard work. I am forever grateful (written after meditating!)
Your channel is great! All my current interests are covered in your topics of talk)
100% commitment. Wild concept.
Great video
The range of what we see and do
Is limited by what we fail to notice.
And because we fail to notice
That we fail to notice,
There is little we can do
To change
Until we notice
How failing to notice
Shapes our thoughts and deeds.

Hi Brian! Your commitment to bring 10 ideas in a digestible form has been a great blessing to me . It helps me on various dimensions : brings clarity, helps review, and motivates the budding author.. Thanks once again.
Brian, where can i find your philosophers notes . I want to learn how you go about composing them . Thanks in advance-

Hi Brian, great video and thanks for putting time to enlighten the world. I really liked the water bucket illustration. Could you make a video on Mastery by Robert Greene, I am currently reading this book but it seems to contain a lot. It would be of great help if I could get a summary video on it.
Thanks again.
I meditate for many years now but consistently the last 2 years (never missed a day). And I have to say that I experience all of the benefits you mentioned today!!! Pure delight!
Thanks for sharing all these great videos! New subscriber here!
Love this video Brian! thank you for the work you do. The way you tell your stories makes it easier to percolate the information!
I do 2x 20 minutes a day, results are incredible, stress and worries disappear, notice things normally not noticed because your mind was elsewhere, appreciation of taste, clear uncluttered view of everything, living in the moment…
To truly appreciate this channel, one shouldn't watch more than one video per week.
Posting this one on FB. Thanks for all you do.
awesome
Love that Identity – action – feeling thingy! It Makes so much sense 🙂
I want to learn to meditation..my new job….actually made our unit relaxed and meditate yesterday and they got all of us 30 minute massage. I have never been cared for by an employer this way before. I feel so blessed. They even had us watch a movie called butterfly circus. To teach us how to turn things around from neg to positive. I am loving my life rite now.
30 burpees a day and you'll never get sick again. That is quite a claim.
Hey man. I love your videos. so clear, interesting and inspiring to watch. have a great day!
Ah, you have enriched my life tremendously, Brian. Every video you post, every book you share. I wish you as much success and happiness as what you have done for us
