But even more empowering, perhaps, is to wake up to your worth that is inherent to your being beyond any story of it being
comparing to something externally you know whether it being i am not worthy or i am worthy and part of getting to that that point is i feel so much of creating distance from us in any story whether it's nice or not nice depending on what we think it is and that that requires practice to create distance between us and any narrative or story that are that's happening neurologically like
the reality is we're so close to our own bullshit. If we don't brush our teeth, as the saying goes, for a couple weeks, we won't really notice it because the change is so gradual and it's so close to us, we become accustomed to it, but other people can tell, right?
And so that's, I think, where it becomes really easy when you're at Thanksgiving dinner and you see all the neuroses in your family members or you're in school and you can see things and patterns that play out in other people way more easily than you can yourself. Mm-hmm. Of course, you have them too, right? As much as we don't like to admit it.
But it's in creating distance between us and those stories and those patterns that we begin to see them. And so... Can I... Yeah, I just wanted you to jump in here too because you talked about the jump from awareness to story. And obviously, we're practicing cultivating the awareness between the two. Yeah.
Mic drop.
hey fam sometimes i get asked what kind of tea my guests and i are drinking on the show or what i just like to drink in general and i just wanted to give you guys a quick share because not all tea is created equally many companies are not organic leak microplastics into your tea or are just low quality sourced ingredients in general one tea brand that i have been drinking almost every day is from peak life
they have this puer tea which sounds very fancy and bougie and it is it's not like normal tea it's fermented which means that it's loaded with living probiotics and prebiotics that support your gut health it's like a reset button for your microbiome that supports with digestion energy metabolism and your skin peaks puer green tea and black tea which are right here
It's wild harvested from 250 year old trees. The purity is of next level. They are triple toxin screen, meaning there's no junk, no pesticides, no additives. It's just the good stuff, the stuff that you want. It dissolves instantly in hot or cold water. There's no tea bags or steeping. So the form factor I love, it's very convenient.
And now because you're an awesome human and you listen to this podcast, Peak is hooking you up with 20% off for life. Yes for Life. And they'll give you a free rechargeable frother and glass speaker when you grab their Pu-erh bundle, which is the black and green tea. This is an exclusive offer just for everybody who listens to this show. Peak hooks it up with a 90-day money-back guarantee.
So that means it's risk-free. You can go to peaklife.com slash knowthyself to grab yours now. That's peaklife.com slash knowthyself. Link in bio. As always, I hope you enjoy. Man, there's so many touch points there that we can dive further into.
That last note about transcendence being, again, not something that we're in the continual acquisition of, but is the realization, which is why it's called self-realization.
as the letting go and the undoing of those parts of us that aren't actually us, but yet we subtly or sometimes grossly believe to be ourselves, then realizes and makes space for that experience of our true nature and true self. A great book on the synthesizing of what you're talking to that people want to check out is Already Free by Bruce Tift. Oh, yeah.
It's a great framework for seeing how you could do years and decades of shadow work and make great progress in terms of your ability to be with your inner child and take full custody of it and do those parts works and all of it and still live so much heavily identified in your mind and story and trying to improve it. And that can be a never-ending journey.
On the flip side, you can go deep into the contemplative practices and waking up beyond the story and still be an asshole. You can have a lot of those character things that are not resolved because no matter how much you become aware and separate yourself from a story, you still have a personality structure in there that you'll go back to, especially if you have a family and you live in society.
And so they're both needed. And like you spoke to earlier, We've seen so many examples of both, of the spiritual teacher who dies of alcoholism, of the enlightened guru that sexually abuses, right? What is that? Why does that happen? It's because there's all this other characterological stuff that's not addressed and can't be addressed from just the waking up perspective.
and we've we know obviously and you can experience a lot of of individuals who continue to do shadow work and continue to do the inner excavation uh which is amazing it's noble and um and it's a never-ending path unless you start to wake up beyond the the illusion of any story right um and so This, I think, ties nicely in also with your face model.
And so if you'd like to share kind of your process of how you orient yourself towards this, because what's really been useful and not just sharing your story, because that's amazing as well, but all these
practical examples you've given of how whoever's listening to this right now can engage in their next challenging moment that happens in their life or when they go home and something happens, pleasant or unpleasant, they have more tools, like an internal capacity and capability to be with anything. Like that's a truly powerful individual. And I think some frameworks like that would support.
So yeah, yeah.
