Alan Carroll: 00:00:03

Welcome back to another episode of the mindful

Alan Carroll: 00:00:08

you podcast. I'm Alan Carroll. And I have the privilege and the

Alan Carroll: 00:00:16

fun of being a host in the space of mindfulness. And we get to

Alan Carroll: 00:00:23

listen to various people who have chosen various paths in

Alan Carroll: 00:00:30

order to contribute the benefits of mindfulness to the world

Alan Carroll: 00:00:35

around them. And today, neuron. Tillman is our guest neuron.

Alan Carroll: 00:00:48

Interesting. He born and raised Queens, New York outside of

Alan Carroll: 00:00:54

Manhattan, tough environment, violent environment, crime and

Alan Carroll: 00:01:02

crime environment, drug environment, addiction

Alan Carroll: 00:01:06

environment, noise environment, always moving always loud, boom,

Alan Carroll: 00:01:10

boom, boom, boom, boom. And he transformed out of that

Alan Carroll: 00:01:18

environment, through the practice of meditation through

Alan Carroll: 00:01:23

the practice of yoga, practice of breathing, practice of

Alan Carroll: 00:01:28

mindfulness. And then he got connected with Deepak Chopra,

Alan Carroll: 00:01:34

his foundation of bringing this dimension of healing, the yoga,

Alan Carroll: 00:01:39

the meditation and the breathing into the inner city schools,

Alan Carroll: 00:01:44

where the agitation is extreme. And he shared a story in the

Alan Carroll: 00:01:49

beginning that he came to the principals of schools of nine

Alan Carroll: 00:01:52

and it won't work around here. They can't, they can't sit still

Alan Carroll: 00:01:58

for and do things like that they're always moving. And so

Alan Carroll: 00:02:02

what he did is he started the mindful exercises with body

Alan Carroll: 00:02:06

movement, and entered into that stillness, exercise. And he

Alan Carroll: 00:02:10

said, after a series of lessons, the group who was always

Alan Carroll: 00:02:17

agitated, was able to actually close her eyes and become still

Alan Carroll: 00:02:23

for 10 minutes. And that was a major breakthrough that

Alan Carroll: 00:02:27

disrupted the automaticity of their life. So they begin to

Alan Carroll: 00:02:32

wake up and begin to have more of a choice. And then he talks

Alan Carroll: 00:02:35

about how it affects the physical body, and the health of

Alan Carroll: 00:02:39

the physical body. So he's sharing and plot Plus, he's also

Alan Carroll: 00:02:43

a preacher, from the Pentecostal direction, and a lot of energy

Alan Carroll: 00:02:50

in that church. And so he's able to bring in flavors of

Alan Carroll: 00:02:54

Christianity, the wisdom of the Bible, the result of the

Alan Carroll: 00:02:57

Christianity point of view, and tied in with a mindfulness point

Alan Carroll: 00:03:01

of view. And he said, After practicing mindfulness and

Alan Carroll: 00:03:04

meditation for 11 years, his understanding of the Scriptures

Alan Carroll: 00:03:09

has totally changed. Totally changed. What he was looking at

Alan Carroll: 00:03:15

the scriptures 11 years ago, and now what he sees is different,

Alan Carroll: 00:03:19

as he has attained that state of mindfulness. So it was fun

Alan Carroll: 00:03:24

talking with neuron. And I'm sure that you will also enjoy

Alan Carroll: 00:03:27

his talking, and how he brings the healing Enos of mindfulness

Alan Carroll: 00:03:34

not only to the inner city schools, but to all over all

Alan Carroll: 00:03:38

over to corporations to foundations in order to bring

Alan Carroll: 00:03:42

that healing energy to those people who has a lot of

Alan Carroll: 00:03:46

agitation and need to become more still. So please welcome

Alan Carroll: 00:03:54

neuron, Tillman to the mindful you, podcast. And who am I

Alan Carroll: 00:04:02

clapping for? I'm clapping for neuron. Tillman. And why am I

Alan Carroll: 00:04:05

clapping today for the Ron Tillman, I'll tell you why. He

Alan Carroll: 00:04:09

has spent the last 11 years playing in a space that is not a

Alan Carroll: 00:04:15

comfortable space. And, and he's been able to bring mindfulness,

Alan Carroll: 00:04:20

the tools of mindfulness, the healing of mindfulness into a

Alan Carroll: 00:04:24

space, which is, as as he described to me is, I would say,

Alan Carroll: 00:04:30

a lot of agitation. And mindfulness is about stillness.

Alan Carroll: 00:04:34

So anybody who can bring stillness, into a space of

Alan Carroll: 00:04:38

agitation is a healer, healing that suffering that is caused by

Alan Carroll: 00:04:43

the agitation. So I have today ladies and gentlemen, a healer,

Alan Carroll: 00:04:47

a healer from New York City, and his name is neurone. Tillman, I

Alan Carroll: 00:04:52

want to welcome you and also thank you, neuron for the work

Alan Carroll: 00:04:55

that you're doing, and environments that are that are

Alan Carroll: 00:04:59

in need. he'd have work like that. So I'd like to pass the

Alan Carroll: 00:05:03

baton or pass the mic over to you. And have you described a

Alan Carroll: 00:05:07

little bit about who you are and how you got to do what you're

Alan Carroll: 00:05:11

doing. And really, I was just going to be fun to hear you

Alan Carroll: 00:05:14

talk, because to bring healing into that environment is a gift

Alan Carroll: 00:05:18

from God. So go ahead and introduce.

NaRon Tillman: 00:05:22

Thank you, Alan, for having me on. take delight

NaRon Tillman: 00:05:25

in being able to share with you and audience about mindfulness

NaRon Tillman: 00:05:30

in the work that we do. I'm a pastor have been pastoring for

NaRon Tillman: 00:05:36

2015 years. I've been preaching since I was 24. I just turned

NaRon Tillman: 00:05:40

48. So 24 years. And it's a it's a weird Road, me learning

NaRon Tillman: 00:05:49

mindfulness. I'm from a Pentecostal background. And

NaRon Tillman: 00:05:53

during Hurricane Sandy, I met my teacher, Eddie Stern, who

NaRon Tillman: 00:05:59

happens to be working in a community that I grew up in that

NaRon Tillman: 00:06:02

was hard hit by Sandy. And he brought me in as a mentor to

NaRon Tillman: 00:06:05

work with some new for young adults in another area of

NaRon Tillman: 00:06:08

Queens. And it would teach them yoga and mindfulness. And I said

NaRon Tillman: 00:06:13

to myself, that part of Queens, I got to see this. So I went,

NaRon Tillman: 00:06:20

and I kept coming back, and I kept coming back. And that was

NaRon Tillman: 00:06:23

about 11 or 12 years ago. And I started out as a mentor to them,

NaRon Tillman: 00:06:28

just bringing them basic mentorship. So they were

NaRon Tillman: 00:06:32

teaching the best of mindfulness practices to youth and young

NaRon Tillman: 00:06:36

adults through Deepak Chopra, his vision and Eric afford

NaRon Tillman: 00:06:41

revision. So

Alan Carroll: 00:06:42

let's, let's just slow down that because that's

Alan Carroll: 00:06:44

the I'm not too familiar with Erica, but I'm definitely

Alan Carroll: 00:06:47

familiar with Deepak. So so go ahead and share with our

Alan Carroll: 00:06:50

audience who may not know who Deepak Chopra is. So

Unknown: 00:06:54

Deepak Chopra is a world renowned mindset coach, I

Unknown: 00:06:58

call him but he's a scientist. And he, and he, and he's really

Unknown: 00:07:02

beneficial. And bringing all of this together. We went, we'd

Unknown: 00:07:07

have some certification and meditation through the Chopra

Unknown: 00:07:09

Foundation, and, and all of that, and this was his

Unknown: 00:07:12

brainchild. He met Erica and Erica was angry because of gun

Unknown: 00:07:16

violence. And she was saying nobody's doing anything. And

Unknown: 00:07:19

then he calls the question, did you try meditation. And she was

Unknown: 00:07:24

like, if you helped me get a program, I'll try meditation.

Unknown: 00:07:28

And he helped build the program. 11 years later, we have urban

Unknown: 00:07:32

Yogi's. And, and it was a beautiful thing. So we started

Unknown: 00:07:37

out in that area. And from that journey from that beginning,

Unknown: 00:07:41

from that seed being planted, me being a preacher just saying to

Unknown: 00:07:45

myself, that these guys are not going to do meditation in the

Unknown: 00:07:48

middle of the projects, because we were in a house with they

Unknown: 00:07:52

call it housing projects. And I'm watching them do it. And I'm

Unknown: 00:07:55

watching them come back weekend and week out. And I started to

Unknown: 00:07:59

practice,

Alan Carroll: 00:08:01

you started to practice the yoga and

Alan Carroll: 00:08:03

meditation. I

Unknown: 00:08:04

started to practice yoga and meditation, I was doing

Unknown: 00:08:07

meditation, I thought I was doing yoga. And when I started

Unknown: 00:08:11

practicing, I realized that I didn't know anything about

Unknown: 00:08:14

meditation, anything about you. And it got me deeper into the

Unknown: 00:08:18

practice. And they opened up my mindset, to the possibilities of

Unknown: 00:08:25

real using imagination and stuff. And what really helped me

Unknown: 00:08:30

to get deeper into the practice. And I didn't start teaching just

Unknown: 00:08:34

yet. I was mentoring them on lifestyle, stuff I had about

Unknown: 00:08:41

like high blood pressure. And I used to go into the schools and

Unknown: 00:08:46

sell the program to the schools. And I'm telling the schools

Unknown: 00:08:50

about all the wonderful benefits of this program, right? helps to

Unknown: 00:08:53

bring down hypertension, it helps to bring down helps to

Unknown: 00:08:57

broaden the focus, it helps to do this, it helps to do that.

Unknown: 00:08:59

And I got in my car and I was like, I'm here, I was taking

Unknown: 00:09:03

this medicine. And it was making me feel lethargic. And I was

Unknown: 00:09:07

like I'm telling them that all these benefits that mindfulness

Unknown: 00:09:10

meditation and yoga does, and I'm not even really living out

Unknown: 00:09:14

to benefits. Right, right. Yeah.

Alan Carroll: 00:09:18

Absolutely.

Unknown: 00:09:20

Four days a week, hour and a half day, sometimes five

Unknown: 00:09:23

days will be blood pressure change, everything's started.

Unknown: 00:09:30

Life started looking different from for me, my understanding of

Unknown: 00:09:35

Scripture, I will meditate on Scripture as my understanding

Unknown: 00:09:37

for scripture starting broader so now I can really I became

Unknown: 00:09:44

engrossed in the thing that I was saying that was going to

Unknown: 00:09:47

help you for young adult. I realized that it can help me to

Alan Carroll: 00:09:52

just not nice

Unknown: 00:09:55

as teaching and it's it's been a it's been a

Unknown: 00:09:58

wonderful journey. We've been We've been highlighted on Good

Unknown: 00:10:01

Morning America, local news. For the work that we do, we've

Unknown: 00:10:06

worked with Sonim Foundation, bring we were able to bring yoga

Unknown: 00:10:13

in schools we, because we had a foundation behind us. And so in

Unknown: 00:10:17

California, we were able to fight against the institution

Unknown: 00:10:22

that said yoga was a religion. And, and it wanted to ban yoga

Unknown: 00:10:27

and mindfulness work from schools. So we've been able to

Unknown: 00:10:29

be a product that's

Alan Carroll: 00:10:30

in California, they were talking about that.

Alan Carroll: 00:10:33

Yes, California is usually the people that are the leading edge

Alan Carroll: 00:10:37

of yoga and meditation, not the ones that are gay

Unknown: 00:10:41

in San Francisco, but Sao Paulo walks out, they

Unknown: 00:10:45

wonder, one of the mothers was, was a devout Christian and she

Unknown: 00:10:49

viewed yoga, like we were, we were trying to teach religion,

Unknown: 00:10:55

the religion of yoga, indoctrinate their child with

Unknown: 00:10:59

yoga practices. We work with NFL three play 60 in Kansas City and

Unknown: 00:11:05

the Kansas City Chiefs. We've done a lot with the Chicago

Unknown: 00:11:10

Bulls Foundation, Hilton foundation. So we've, we've been

Unknown: 00:11:13

able to move from just focusing in on in a city, and our slogan

Unknown: 00:11:21

was healthy, happy kids, to now yoga is for everybody. It

Unknown: 00:11:24

doesn't matter. If you're a kid, if you're in school, whatever

Unknown: 00:11:28

your yoga is for everybody, and mindfulness. And a mindful work

Unknown: 00:11:33

is for everyone.

Alan Carroll: 00:11:35

Boy, what a what a mission, that you're on what

Alan Carroll: 00:11:39

your being a preacher to being a preacher of wanting, wanting to

Alan Carroll: 00:11:43

preach, wanting to spread the word out. So you get to choose

Alan Carroll: 00:11:46

what words that you want to spread. And if you're spreading

Alan Carroll: 00:11:50

the words of mindfulness in the words of meditation and the

Alan Carroll: 00:11:53

words of yoga and the words of spirituality and Deepak Chopra,

Alan Carroll: 00:11:57

and, and this this, this space, represents a big, big, powerful

Alan Carroll: 00:12:05

energy of stillness. And boy, that's a good way of describing

Alan Carroll: 00:12:12

because people become in meditation, let's talk about

Alan Carroll: 00:12:16

Alright, so now we got 11 years of research. What? So yeah, so

Alan Carroll: 00:12:21

what what has changed? What what has changed in the statistics of

Alan Carroll: 00:12:26

my mathematician scientific Deepak Chopra? Okay, so how many

Alan Carroll: 00:12:29

students did this what Jade? Sure, show me some facts, you

Alan Carroll: 00:12:32

know, in Iran, and maybe I'll donate some money.

Unknown: 00:12:35

So when we go into a school, right? You have, you

Unknown: 00:12:40

have this different dynamic. We learned about in church, we call

Unknown: 00:12:47

it sin, sin, sin, inherited sin, but in science, they call it

Unknown: 00:12:51

negative bias, right? I grew up in New housing projects, but

Alan Carroll: 00:12:54

it's not in science. They call it what

Alan Carroll: 00:12:57

negative

Unknown: 00:12:58

bias negative bias and get we link, our thought process

Unknown: 00:13:03

leads to more negative influence more negative impressions, more

Unknown: 00:13:08

so than positive impressions.

Alan Carroll: 00:13:09

So sin would be towards the negative side. The

Alan Carroll: 00:13:14

other side all right, I got it. All right, negative thoughts and

Alan Carroll: 00:13:20

all right, sort

Unknown: 00:13:21

of negative thoughts. But imagine growing up in an

Unknown: 00:13:24

environment where it is a food desert. Violence, you become

Unknown: 00:13:29

numb to sex you become numb to addictions, whether is drug

Unknown: 00:13:36

addictions, alcohol addictions, that all this is all at your,

Unknown: 00:13:40

that you're inundated with all day. So your first impressions

Unknown: 00:13:43

that are in your mind are all of these compounding biases are

Unknown: 00:13:48

compounding things that tells you that these are okay, this is

Unknown: 00:13:51

okay to just punch somebody in the face to just take something

Unknown: 00:13:55

that don't belong to you to do because you're in survival mode.

Unknown: 00:13:59

And then what we ingest actually helps to trigger these these

Unknown: 00:14:06

biases or these things that now become our through our

Unknown: 00:14:10

subconscious thought process. This becomes our auto Matic

Unknown: 00:14:14

motion. This is what we do. So when I go into school, and I say

Unknown: 00:14:20

to principal, we do yoga, I'm going to bring up the first

Unknown: 00:14:23

thing that the principal said, our kids want to do that. So

Unknown: 00:14:27

when we when we're able to get a youth or young adult at a

Unknown: 00:14:32

certain age, we can start to slow down the process and you

Unknown: 00:14:35

start to see them come into life. I think you're frozen. On

Alan Carroll: 00:14:43

here I'm frozen. It's not frozen as Mesmer is

Alan Carroll: 00:14:47

mesmerized. You're so relevant.

Unknown: 00:14:54

So Alan, you start to see them coming to life, right?

Unknown: 00:14:56

You start to you start to see people doing moves Bringing back

Unknown: 00:15:00

the child like mindset, you start to see them passing

Unknown: 00:15:04

classes because they can sit down and focus, you start to get

Unknown: 00:15:09

them to keep quiet. So when I when I, when I go into a

Unknown: 00:15:12

classroom, and imagine now all of that now in the education

Unknown: 00:15:15

system, there's 35 to 40 kids in the class in these communities.

Unknown: 00:15:19

So I have to start with trying to get them to be quiet for one

Unknown: 00:15:23

minute. The reason why we use movement and and because I was a

Unknown: 00:15:27

kid who couldn't sit still. So I said, we have to have movement

Unknown: 00:15:31

we have to do, because I've worked with other organizations

Unknown: 00:15:34

that just wanted to do breathing and meditation, like you can't

Unknown: 00:15:37

go into a community of people that always move in and then

Unknown: 00:15:40

tell them to sit down. So the movement and the breath work

Unknown: 00:15:44

with the movement, gets them move, gets them up, gets them

Unknown: 00:15:48

going. Now if I can get them to be quiet for a minute to shut

Unknown: 00:15:51

down the computer, and I can start putting in some of these

Unknown: 00:15:55

positive affirmations. For one, every negative thought think of

Unknown: 00:15:59

three positive thoughts to reinforce that. Get them

Unknown: 00:16:02

breathing in the nostrils, touching the brain, given the

Unknown: 00:16:06

breadth of color, for when you breathe in, and light color, and

Unknown: 00:16:10

fill it like filling your body like a balloon when you breathe

Unknown: 00:16:13

out a dark color. And that darkness is the violence that

Unknown: 00:16:16

you think if I can get them to just start to listen to their

Unknown: 00:16:21

own subconscious thoughts. So a lot of times I get them to

Unknown: 00:16:24

listen to what is your most dominant thought and thinking

Unknown: 00:16:28

about food, I think, and you should hear some of the stuff

Unknown: 00:16:30

that people blurt out because they are so uncomfortable. We

Unknown: 00:16:33

are so uncomfortable being silent, because we grow up in

Unknown: 00:16:36

this environment where it's always noise. The gunshots the

Unknown: 00:16:42

music is loud. The TV is loud, we we talk to each other, we

Unknown: 00:16:46

play cards, we talk loud, we go to a party is noise noise noise.

Unknown: 00:16:50

Now I'm saying and even in church, everything is loud.

Unknown: 00:16:58

Someone are coming out, say everybody just be quiet.

Unknown: 00:17:05

Somebody's gotta make a fart sound or do something because

Unknown: 00:17:09

they can't sit in silence. But then six months in, it's moved

Unknown: 00:17:14

from a minute. And I put that time. And I'm like, wow, I got

Unknown: 00:17:19

them to sit for 10 minutes in silence. No fart silence. No

Unknown: 00:17:27

biting, wiggling, nobody touching the person next to

Unknown: 00:17:30

them. Nobody trying to whisper it's a powerful thing.

Alan Carroll: 00:17:36

You bet. You bet. The ability to become still, you

Alan Carroll: 00:17:47

point you make so many points about the environment that I

Alan Carroll: 00:17:51

don't live in the environment that you described. I tried to

Alan Carroll: 00:17:55

live in an environment where Superman lived on Antarctica

Alan Carroll: 00:17:59

called the Fortress of Solitude. I want to I want to close the

Alan Carroll: 00:18:03

door, I want to eliminate all noise. I want to get the most

Alan Carroll: 00:18:08

stillness environment that I can possibly get. And if you have

Alan Carroll: 00:18:11

any connections to the university, I think it's

Alan Carroll: 00:18:15

Berkeley has a room that is so quiet. That you know maybe it's

Alan Carroll: 00:18:21

Salt Lake City, you can hear your breath. And it's so loud

Alan Carroll: 00:18:24

because the room is so that stillness, the way you described

Alan Carroll: 00:18:29

it. What I loved about it was it's doable. It's doable. It's

Alan Carroll: 00:18:37

not. It's not woowoo. Maybe you can't No. Notice that every

Alan Carroll: 00:18:45

thought that you think there's no there's no space at all,

Alan Carroll: 00:18:49

between the thoughts that you speak. And there's no space

Alan Carroll: 00:18:52

between the thoughts that you think. So if we can disrupt

Alan Carroll: 00:18:55

that, if we can, if we can do a disruptive technology to the

Alan Carroll: 00:18:59

pattern of the speaking by inserting emptiness and silence

Alan Carroll: 00:19:07

between the sounds, to have the realization that there is an

Alan Carroll: 00:19:12

empty space between this sound and this sound, and that opens

Alan Carroll: 00:19:21

the portal that allows you to drop into that space of sea of

Alan Carroll: 00:19:27

emptiness. That is that that reduces the suffering that

Alan Carroll: 00:19:32

you're experiencing on the surface in the storm. And so you

Alan Carroll: 00:19:35

are calming the waters. And Jesus did that. I believe

Alan Carroll: 00:19:39

somewhere in the scriptures. You are leading us beside the still

Alan Carroll: 00:19:43

waters. You are guiding us you are demonstrating what what what

Alan Carroll: 00:19:48

in Christianity they've written all over the place, but you're

Alan Carroll: 00:19:51

able to bring that healing the Spirit of God into the schools

Alan Carroll: 00:19:56

now. Watch out with that one. Because people are gonna say no

Alan Carroll: 00:20:00

Religion in the schools will religion is. Religion is

Alan Carroll: 00:20:03

spiritual healing, the purpose of religion is to, to bring

Alan Carroll: 00:20:07

peace, stillness. So anyway, you got to do that. And boy,

Alan Carroll: 00:20:12

wonderful things you've been doing. This is great.

Alan Carroll: 00:20:15

Congratulations.

Unknown: 00:20:17

Thank you. So we started working. I work with a

Unknown: 00:20:21

few churches now. And they're seniors, and trying to bring

Unknown: 00:20:25

back motion and movement. But we use breathwork, silence and

Unknown: 00:20:29

meditation and visualization. I've learned over the last few

Unknown: 00:20:34

years, talking to some of my quantum physics buddies, about

Unknown: 00:20:39

the power of visualization, about the power of futuristic

Unknown: 00:20:43

thinking, and how that is actually helping with, with the

Unknown: 00:20:48

work that we've already been doing. The great thing about

Unknown: 00:20:51

energy. And the great thing about the laws of attraction is

Unknown: 00:20:53

if you start putting something in motion, gotta bring people in

Unknown: 00:20:57

your path that help you move forward and give you great ideas

Unknown: 00:21:02

to help you with the work that you're doing. So with our

Unknown: 00:21:06

seniors, we were talking about, again, and communities that we

Unknown: 00:21:16

eat, we may have bad diets, fried chicken, collard greens,

Unknown: 00:21:20

and all that stuff. Stuff that brings inflammation in the body,

Unknown: 00:21:24

stuff that causes disease to fester in the body, stuff that

Unknown: 00:21:27

causes our limbs to tighten up and there, there's no motion,

Unknown: 00:21:30

there's no proper breath work, there's no so I spit in our, in

Unknown: 00:21:35

some facilities, working with senior citizens. And we talk

Unknown: 00:21:40

about breathwork. And I can say to them, be mindful. Now how can

Unknown: 00:21:44

I say, these are in church context, because of me, being a

Unknown: 00:21:47

pastor, I know how the scriptures now look different to

Unknown: 00:21:52

me than I did when I first started pastoring.

Alan Carroll: 00:21:54

Give me an example. Show me that you have

Alan Carroll: 00:21:56

one in mind that has a new revelation to it.

Unknown: 00:21:59

Yes. So the Bible says Be anxious for nothing. But in

Unknown: 00:22:04

all things to prayer and supplication, let your requests

Unknown: 00:22:07

be made known to God thinks on those things. Don't think of the

Unknown: 00:22:13

thing that makes you anxious. So that Be anxious for nothing

Unknown: 00:22:16

means don't be don't don't have the thoughts of anxiety. But I

Unknown: 00:22:20

want you to shift your anxious bring your conscious thoughts,

Unknown: 00:22:25

to think on those things which are lovely. Think on those

Unknown: 00:22:28

things which are pure. Think on those things which have a good

Unknown: 00:22:31

report, sing songs that make you happy. Think on those things. So

Unknown: 00:22:38

the the thing is that what opened up to me is that before

Unknown: 00:22:45

we would look up to heaven, and tell God to bring down

Unknown: 00:22:48

blessings. The carpet sent down the blessing and we were crying

Unknown: 00:22:54

out Yeah. And we're waiting for blessings to come. But when I

Unknown: 00:22:57

saw that scripture revolutionized me, he didn't

Unknown: 00:23:00

say, wait for me to send down blessing. He said, I don't want

Unknown: 00:23:03

you to be anxious, I want you to think I want you to take the

Unknown: 00:23:09

actions. Think on those things which are pure. In other words,

Unknown: 00:23:12

I want you to transform, I want you to rewire the way that you

Unknown: 00:23:16

are thinking. So when I have you in a meditative stance, I can

Unknown: 00:23:21

use that scripture in meditation. This is what you're

Unknown: 00:23:24

doing. I want you to shift your thoughts from the things that's

Unknown: 00:23:28

making you anxious, and start thinking of some things that

Unknown: 00:23:31

make you smile, start thinking of some things. So what I do

Unknown: 00:23:35

with the singers visualization, I say think about something that

Unknown: 00:23:38

you used to love doing that you can't do no more. Whether it's

Unknown: 00:23:41

dancing, singing and visualize that visualize yourself doing

Unknown: 00:23:45

that thing. If he was playing sports, visualize yourself

Unknown: 00:23:48

playing sports. Now think of the you in the present time doing

Unknown: 00:23:53

those things. What does that look like? The present you doing

Unknown: 00:23:56

something that you used to love doing that you can't do no more.

Unknown: 00:23:59

That's why we're here. So we can get the mobility back. So when I

Unknown: 00:24:03

was coming up, grandma used to say, we thank God for the

Unknown: 00:24:06

activities of our lives. And then they're like, Yeah, all

Unknown: 00:24:09

right. So now let's get those limbs active again. Right?

Unknown: 00:24:12

Because we thinking on those things. So we remove the number

Unknown: 00:24:16

one, I can do all things and they finish to Christ extract

Unknown: 00:24:19

me. So I don't want you to come into my class telling me I can't

Unknown: 00:24:23

do it. I don't want you to come in and say Ha, the doctor said I

Unknown: 00:24:27

can't. Right. So we talked about micro movements. I may not be

Unknown: 00:24:33

able to do this today, but I want you to monitor

Unknown: 00:24:36

and do this. Yeah, yeah, I can do

Unknown: 00:24:38

this. Yeah, right. And if I keep doing this through repetition,

Unknown: 00:24:42

through coming back to sitting in that chair, to get on that

Unknown: 00:24:45

mat, if I keep doing this, eventually I'll be able to do

Unknown: 00:24:47

this. I have a class on Wednesday nights that were 90%

Unknown: 00:24:52

Chair bound. None of them have chairs no more. I call one of

Unknown: 00:24:56

the ladies Mama Mama through to walk away she comes in and she's

Unknown: 00:25:00

on a mat, she does downward upward dogs, she does some

Unknown: 00:25:05

citation, a modified citation beaks keeps those arms up she

Unknown: 00:25:10

can, she can do some things that some of the younger ladies can

Unknown: 00:25:15

do. Because she kept coming back, and wants to see it work

Unknown: 00:25:19

to see them get their lives back. I'm not I'm talking about

Unknown: 00:25:23

but I do want to share an experience that just happened to

Unknown: 00:25:25

me. I work in a homeless shelter. And I was teaching a

Unknown: 00:25:29

mother and daughter. And it's a six week program. And it's a

Unknown: 00:25:33

train to train and we train other people to do. So. We want

Unknown: 00:25:37

to go into the facility that was using this facility as a model.

Unknown: 00:25:41

So that we can build in a facility a mindfulness program

Unknown: 00:25:44

to urban Yogi's, and the mother has had a disease, I don't want

Unknown: 00:25:49

to say what it was because I can't remember whether it's

Unknown: 00:25:51

lupus or Ms. But it meant she wasn't she was chair about. And

Unknown: 00:25:56

she walk with a walker, but she she really was chair. And we,

Unknown: 00:26:02

during this practice, I play affirmations in the background.

Unknown: 00:26:07

So and I am I am healed, I am. And these things are playing

Unknown: 00:26:12

while we're doing a yoga. And that's becoming an is, you know,

Unknown: 00:26:17

I'm helping them to reimagine they don't know what he's doing.

Unknown: 00:26:21

But it's putting new impressions into the subconscious while we

Unknown: 00:26:24

do our practice. So I told him to think of something that you

Unknown: 00:26:28

want to do that you can't do now stain visualization, she said,

Unknown: 00:26:33

she's engaged, and she wants to be able to walk down the aisle.

Unknown: 00:26:37

So one day, she gets up out of a chair, and she starts walking

Unknown: 00:26:40

around the room. And her daughter's behind her. And she's

Unknown: 00:26:44

shaking, and she's walking her and I am is going and she's

Unknown: 00:26:47

saying it out loud. She goes to the doctor, she has a trauma, a

Unknown: 00:26:51

traumatic experience. This is the one Wednesday night that we

Unknown: 00:26:53

can a body goes through trauma, the resistance comes she tells

Unknown: 00:26:59

the director I can't do that no more is making me sick. She

Unknown: 00:27:05

didn't see the small movement, the micro movement and victory.

Unknown: 00:27:09

All she could do was lean. And I never got a chance to talk to

Unknown: 00:27:12

her again. Because I can't get into the facility. I don't I

Unknown: 00:27:15

don't have that. Because I can explain to her. What happens is

Unknown: 00:27:20

the negative bias is going to rise up because that's what it

Unknown: 00:27:24

says I own your body. She I'm hopefully I'm gonna do an event

Unknown: 00:27:30

this afternoon. We're doing it we do yoga pop ups. I pray that

Unknown: 00:27:35

she comes out

Alan Carroll: 00:27:36

yeah. Let's let's just say this, this the

Alan Carroll: 00:27:39

alignment on that we pray that she shows up today. And

Unknown: 00:27:44

that this is what happens. When you start to when

Unknown: 00:27:47

you start to think and transform, we start to see

Unknown: 00:27:50

transformation. It gets worse. And then it gets better to see

Unknown: 00:27:55

goes into the dark and then it harvests into reality.

Alan Carroll: 00:28:00

Very, very sweet. Very sweet. You you describe

Alan Carroll: 00:28:03

something about Eckhart Tolle, who's a good friend of Deepak

Alan Carroll: 00:28:08

Chopra. I've watched them on YouTube together, talks about

Alan Carroll: 00:28:12

the the thought that you're thinking most people you said

Alan Carroll: 00:28:19

65 80,000 thoughts a day, go go go through your mind. And, and

Alan Carroll: 00:28:25

Raja Yoga is about the management of the thoughts that

Alan Carroll: 00:28:28

that you think. And one of the basic things that you want to be

Alan Carroll: 00:28:31

able to do is to be aware that you're thinking, and once I'm

Alan Carroll: 00:28:35

aware that I'm thinking, then it can begin to choose about, is

Alan Carroll: 00:28:39

there beneficial? Is there benefits falling in this train

Alan Carroll: 00:28:42

of thought? Is it harming my physical body. And so

Alan Carroll: 00:28:46

immediately you realize those negative thoughts are physically

Alan Carroll: 00:28:49

harming your physical body. And now I have the power to shift my

Alan Carroll: 00:28:56

focus to things that are of a higher vibration. And I then

Alan Carroll: 00:29:02

begin to speak in a way in which the Course of Miracles talks

Alan Carroll: 00:29:07

about God cannot do for you. God cannot do for you, God help me,

Alan Carroll: 00:29:11

God for you, that God cannot do through you. And when you start

Alan Carroll: 00:29:16

to believe that you have the power to speak, to speak for the

Alan Carroll: 00:29:20

Word of God, what would you say? Why would you do it? What you

Alan Carroll: 00:29:24

would say would be love and compassion and joy and peace and

Alan Carroll: 00:29:27

stillness and mindfulness? These are the things that you would

Alan Carroll: 00:29:29

say if you're a god, no run. But you're saying this right now. So

Alan Carroll: 00:29:35

you you speak for you speak. You speak for the song of the Holy

Alan Carroll: 00:29:40

Spirit. I mean, it's it comes through mindfulness and the Holy

Alan Carroll: 00:29:44

Spirit are definitely connected. And I'm in your scripture. So

Alan Carroll: 00:29:48

I'd like to just just tap into that. What is the connection

Alan Carroll: 00:29:52

that you see? When we talk about the Holy Spirit, the Spirit

Alan Carroll: 00:29:56

beyond the physical and the mindfulness and the medicine

Alan Carroll: 00:30:00

nation as a bridge to build to get to that space of, of

Alan Carroll: 00:30:04

emptiness of spiritual where the Holy Spirit lives.

Unknown: 00:30:08

The question, there's blockers that that come from. So

Unknown: 00:30:12

we've talked about when when we talk about salvation, the

Unknown: 00:30:17

misnomer is that we're being redeemed from a dark place,

Unknown: 00:30:22

darkness and translated into light. So this translation

Unknown: 00:30:25

happens most in a religious context, everything happens

Unknown: 00:30:29

externally. But in its truest form, the pure response,

Unknown: 00:30:32

everything happens mentally, in the mind.

Alan Carroll: 00:30:36

Yeah, let's take say that again, because that's a

Alan Carroll: 00:30:39

big deal. So, Say that one again, and add a little more

Alan Carroll: 00:30:44

meat to it. Because the the idea that what you create in your

Alan Carroll: 00:30:47

mind comes first is like, pretty important stuff.

Unknown: 00:30:53

Yes. So in religious context, everything happens on

Unknown: 00:30:57

the outside, meaning I go to church, I put on a suit. I got

Unknown: 00:31:01

my Bible under my arm. I don't read it. But I have it. Yeah. I

Unknown: 00:31:05

sing in a choir, I started to acquire all these. Yeah. And

Unknown: 00:31:10

they say, I've been to church, all my life, all my life. But

Unknown: 00:31:13

But you've been in church, but have you been renewed in the

Unknown: 00:31:16

mind? Have you been transformed by the renewing of your mind?

Unknown: 00:31:23

Have you been translated from darkness into light? So when we

Unknown: 00:31:27

lose, use low vibration words, as believers, like I want? What

Unknown: 00:31:32

the Bible says, I shall not want. But where does that

Unknown: 00:31:34

happen? That happens first in the mind. Everything has to be

Unknown: 00:31:39

realized in their minds. So the illuminating process of the

Unknown: 00:31:42

Spirit, we talked about those words that play out and I had

Unknown: 00:31:45

all of those thoughts that come across, but in between each

Unknown: 00:31:48

thought were Deepak says is there there's a gap in between

Unknown: 00:31:51

thoughts. And that's where the Spirit rests. That's where we

Unknown: 00:31:53

found our sweet spot.

Alan Carroll: 00:31:57

There's a gap between the thoughts. So to say

Alan Carroll: 00:32:01

that, again,

Unknown: 00:32:02

the gap in between the thoughts, it may seem like we

Unknown: 00:32:05

have one long thought, but in between each start is it's a

Unknown: 00:32:11

movement, it's a movement, what meditation and what, when we

Unknown: 00:32:14

meditate, and I did a whole series on prayer and meditation,

Unknown: 00:32:18

and why combining the two was important. what prayer does is

Unknown: 00:32:23

prayer shapes, we use our words to help shape our thought. What

Unknown: 00:32:27

meditation does is help open the gap, so that we can rest in the

Unknown: 00:32:32

place of what we call discernment. That's where we get

Unknown: 00:32:36

our discernment from a spirit or open up, would someone say our

Unknown: 00:32:39

third eye, if we're not exercising, that we're going to

Unknown: 00:32:44

have religious thoughts without being able to operate within the

Unknown: 00:32:48

spirit of those doors. So we have people who say I love God,

Unknown: 00:32:53

but then they'll go bomb a building. Because they feel like

Unknown: 00:32:57

they're doing God a favor. But if they tap into that quiet

Unknown: 00:33:01

place where the Spirit dwells, the more we tap in, the wider

Unknown: 00:33:05

the longer the thoughts come, the more you start to see the

Unknown: 00:33:10

gap in between each of those thoughts, the more things begin

Unknown: 00:33:14

to slow down, it's like being a rookie playing football. And

Unknown: 00:33:17

they say, I see Go Sam Darnell, and being a veteran that says,

Unknown: 00:33:21

Oh, that guy moved to the left, I know that he's about to try to

Unknown: 00:33:24

blitz, right, because he's, he's spent time in the study room,

Unknown: 00:33:29

spent time with the Spirit, the Spirit, when we sing songs in

Unknown: 00:33:34

church, and this is something I had to really come across him.

Unknown: 00:33:36

When I sound like this, I sound anti church, and I'm not, we

Unknown: 00:33:39

say, I want the spirit to come down. And we're pointing people

Unknown: 00:33:44

to everything on a spiritual plane, from the outward. When

Unknown: 00:33:48

everything that the person need is already inside of them, what

Unknown: 00:33:51

we need to do is point them, redirect them to focus on what's

Unknown: 00:33:55

already built in side of us, and tap into that which we already

Unknown: 00:34:00

have. And then we start to see how everything slows down.

Unknown: 00:34:07

Everything starts to make sense. And God doesn't become this big

Unknown: 00:34:11

thing other than us, God dwells in us.

Alan Carroll: 00:34:18

Beautiful, beautiful, the, the the idea in

Alan Carroll: 00:34:22

Buddhism, of the distinction they make between a state of

Alan Carroll: 00:34:26

disembodied mind. And the way I would describe this embodiment

Alan Carroll: 00:34:30

is that you're lost in the thoughts. You're in the monkey

Alan Carroll: 00:34:32

mind of the thoughts, the thoughts and thoughts and

Alan Carroll: 00:34:35

thoughts. So 65,000 thoughts all day long, but thought thought

Alan Carroll: 00:34:38

thought. And then they say, well, there's another state of

Alan Carroll: 00:34:40

consciousness, called the embodied state of consciousness,

Alan Carroll: 00:34:44

and the embodied state of consciousness and you're saying

Alan Carroll: 00:34:47

goodbye to the disembodied state of consciousness and you're

Alan Carroll: 00:34:50

saying hello to the, to the to an embodied state. Well, where's

Alan Carroll: 00:34:55

this embodied state? Well, I wonder where the N body state

Alan Carroll: 00:34:58

is. And so Breathing is embody, the grounding of your feet is

Alan Carroll: 00:35:04

embodied. The visualization is a show that's going on, in bodied,

Alan Carroll: 00:35:09

it's not a movie theater outside, it's a movie theater on

Alan Carroll: 00:35:12

the inside. And so the more time that you're able to be embodied,

Alan Carroll: 00:35:18

the further away you get from the disembodied state, which is

Alan Carroll: 00:35:22

the thoughts. And the thoughts are like the gravity, the closer

Alan Carroll: 00:35:26

the thought, the stronger the gravity, the further the thought

Alan Carroll: 00:35:28

is away, the weaker the gravity. So the more you go in, the

Alan Carroll: 00:35:33

further the gravity becomes. And so the influence that that

Alan Carroll: 00:35:36

thought has on your actions becomes nothing. But in the

Alan Carroll: 00:35:42

beginning, it was everything. But there

Unknown: 00:35:44

was everything, nothing is nothing. And, you know, when

Unknown: 00:35:50

I when I began to meditate, and begin to do this practice, I saw

Unknown: 00:35:55

myself as a part of creation.

Alan Carroll: 00:36:00

Not what said again, a power

Unknown: 00:36:03

as a part of creation, oh,

Alan Carroll: 00:36:04

part of you are a part of creation

Unknown: 00:36:08

of all of creation. So yeah, I look at I look at all

Unknown: 00:36:12

Creation differently. So when we talk about grounding is what

Unknown: 00:36:15

triggered that thought. It was before he like, Oh, we're taught

Unknown: 00:36:19

like we're better than the trees were better than in that

Unknown: 00:36:22

context. Because we have a will, does it make us better, we are

Unknown: 00:36:28

part of creation. And then we if we respect, all that, all that

Unknown: 00:36:33

is embodied in creation, that all things were created for him

Unknown: 00:36:36

by his good pleasure, then we have a better understanding of

Unknown: 00:36:40

our place in creation. And not as a sovereign person or a

Unknown: 00:36:46

sovereign being in creation, but as a participant in creation to

Unknown: 00:36:51

bring forward love and harmony in the world. And

Alan Carroll: 00:36:57

as you park the waves, between the thoughts, you

Alan Carroll: 00:37:02

realized is a blank canvas there, and you then have the

Alan Carroll: 00:37:06

power to paint on that Canvas, what you want to see outside.

Alan Carroll: 00:37:11

And so obviously, I'll paint love, kindness and compassion.

Alan Carroll: 00:37:16

And all of a sudden, I speak love, kindness, compassion, I

Alan Carroll: 00:37:19

see love, kindness, compassion. And that's all I see. Because

Alan Carroll: 00:37:22

that's my that's my reality. But what do you have to give up?

Alan Carroll: 00:37:26

What do you have to give up? What hat? What do you got to

Alan Carroll: 00:37:28

give up to park them waves? You got to give up something big in

Alan Carroll: 00:37:32

order to do that. And most people, no way. Am I gonna give

Alan Carroll: 00:37:36

that up new way. Oh, hold on that to the day I die. Jesus

Alan Carroll: 00:37:41

told.

Unknown: 00:37:43

I was always I was on a train yesterday, on my way to

Unknown: 00:37:48

teach a class and I started thinking about the Scripture, we

Unknown: 00:37:51

die daily. And I was like, Wow, I'm wondering, I really want to

Unknown: 00:37:56

dive into what does that mean? We die daily. So we have to give

Unknown: 00:38:01

up some stuff. What did I have to give up? I had to give up

Unknown: 00:38:04

potato chips.

Alan Carroll: 00:38:09

No, no, no, we're not giving up potato chips. No,

Alan Carroll: 00:38:11

that's not. That's not

Unknown: 00:38:15

my daddy been eating. Right. I had to go in. I know

Unknown: 00:38:21

that sounds funny. But it was difficult because that was a

Unknown: 00:38:23

snack that I lived with all my life. I can't remember not

Unknown: 00:38:27

having potato chips. Right? Right. So but if I know that

Unknown: 00:38:31

it's harming me, I had to give up baking. I know that it's

Unknown: 00:38:39

home, because I'm aware now of what it's doing to me. So I keep

Unknown: 00:38:43

doing it. And I go to the doctor, he's like, you gotta get

Unknown: 00:38:46

your cholesterol down. And I go, Okay, I'm gonna get it down. But

Unknown: 00:38:50

then I go, we'll have a bacon sandwich. I'm just aware of the

Unknown: 00:38:54

ramifications of it. But I'm not actually giving anything up.

Unknown: 00:38:59

Right? The number three killer in the world, not in America in

Unknown: 00:39:04

the world. Number one and two fluctuates is heart disease and

Unknown: 00:39:11

cancer fluctuates. Number three is medicine,

Alan Carroll: 00:39:15

medicine, medicine, the medicine that we

Alan Carroll: 00:39:19

take medicine

Unknown: 00:39:20

that we think it's telling us.

Alan Carroll: 00:39:24

Let you talk to my wife, she's a big believer in

Alan Carroll: 00:39:27

not going to hospitals and watch those watch out for those

Alan Carroll: 00:39:30

Western doctors. They wanted they want to treat you with

Alan Carroll: 00:39:33

medicine. And whereas I like Deepak wants to treat me with

Alan Carroll: 00:39:36

yoga and meditation. And I'd rather be treated with the

Alan Carroll: 00:39:40

spiritual work of yoga and meditation and the breath work,

Alan Carroll: 00:39:44

and it's just wonderful. So we're gonna we're gonna complete

Alan Carroll: 00:39:48

our conversation but the conversation is not complete as

Alan Carroll: 00:39:51

far as I'm concerned around you. You are your ability to speak

Alan Carroll: 00:39:57

from the heart is real. rejuvenating, I think is a word

Alan Carroll: 00:40:02

I would use, read, rejuvenate, rejuvenate the the power, of

Alan Carroll: 00:40:10

stillness, as it is practically applied in situations and has a

Alan Carroll: 00:40:19

healing effect. They couldn't stop for 10 seconds. Now they

Alan Carroll: 00:40:25

can stop for 10 minutes. And my people might say, so what. But

Alan Carroll: 00:40:35

in the first one, you are on that automatic reaction to

Alan Carroll: 00:40:41

what's going on. But as you're able to shift over here, you now

Alan Carroll: 00:40:48

have that 10 minutes of silence, to ponder what seeds that you

Alan Carroll: 00:40:55

want to sow, in the garden of your reality. And you are you

Alan Carroll: 00:41:00

have the seeds, you you sow the seed, you sow those attacks,

Alan Carroll: 00:41:04

seeds, you live in attack reality, you sow the seeds of of

Alan Carroll: 00:41:10

love and compassion and joy. You live in that reality. And so

Alan Carroll: 00:41:14

you're sowing seeds of love and compassion and joy in a concrete

Alan Carroll: 00:41:20

garden. And you're seeing little flowers, little things happen in

Alan Carroll: 00:41:28

a concrete garden where they said, This is the lowest darkest

Alan Carroll: 00:41:32

place, can't get any worse than this. And the way you vividly

Alan Carroll: 00:41:36

described it of the daily bombardment of sound. Just you

Alan Carroll: 00:41:46

personally, I was watching the news, which I never watch at six

Alan Carroll: 00:41:53

o'clock. And I couldn't believe it actually physically affected

Alan Carroll: 00:41:57

my body to hear all the negativity of the world coming

Alan Carroll: 00:42:01

into my mind. Turn that sucker off right away. Because it has a

Alan Carroll: 00:42:06

strong influence, but we don't think it does. And that's why

Alan Carroll: 00:42:10

the power of meditation that you're bringing into the schools

Alan Carroll: 00:42:13

and around the world is, is wonderful. Wonderful. So thank

Alan Carroll: 00:42:17

you very, very, very much for being a wonderful guest. And I

Alan Carroll: 00:42:20

look forward to having future conversations, because you're a

Alan Carroll: 00:42:25

you're a cornucopia of love for people. So I like that very

Alan Carroll: 00:42:30

much.

Unknown: 00:42:31

Thank you. Thank you.

Alan Carroll: 00:42:35

And anything that you'd like to say to the

Alan Carroll: 00:42:37

audience if they wanted to reach out and how to contact you or

Alan Carroll: 00:42:40

reach out how they can make donations to the foundations.

Alan Carroll: 00:42:45

Now,

Unknown: 00:42:47

Unknown: 00:42:51

website and everything. So we don't have our website up and

Unknown: 00:42:54

Unknown: 00:42:59

Unknown: 00:43:17

websites and stuff yet. So as soon as we get that up, I would

Unknown: 00:43:20

love to get get back to you at that. But also, if anybody ever,

Unknown: 00:43:25

this is my first time guessing. My one of my goals is to go out

Unknown: 00:43:30

and start speaking and talk and like I sit down, I look at

Unknown: 00:43:35

Deepak and I'm like I could do that. You can do that. You can

Unknown: 00:43:39

do that really wonder, I really want to get involved. So if

Unknown: 00:43:42

Unknown: 00:43:54

Alan Carroll: 00:43:59

Well. Excellent. And so we will we will continue

Alan Carroll: 00:44:05

to speak be connected into the future because this sounds like

Alan Carroll: 00:44:09

an exciting, an exciting opportunity for us to go back

Alan Carroll: 00:44:11

and forth a few times. So I wish you by i wish you success. And I

Alan Carroll: 00:44:17

wish you to have a joyful stillness day full of bliss and

Alan Carroll: 00:44:22

joy.

Unknown: 00:44:23

Unknown: 00:44:27

event. About to go speech at the homeless shelter. Kids fresh out

Unknown: 00:44:34
