The tables were turned again today as I was interviewed by my dear friend Kyle Lasota. In this episode, Kyle asks me how I got into breathwork and created my own breathwork modality for the world. We discuss everything from the science behind breathwork (and why hyper oxygenating the brain is so good for you), my vision for where I plan to take breathwork in the world and why you need to quiet down your mind to truly listen to your intuition. You’ll hear how to use play to be in a state of bliss, how you can use pain as a catalyst for growth and how I plan to reach people through the modality of comedy. 

 

Inside this episode, Samantha shares:

 

  • How Kyle learned to downregulate his nervous system after being introduced to breathwork as a way to overcome anxiety and panic attacks
  • The first breathwork modality that Sam was introduced to and how this led her to get certified in several modalities of breathwork
  • Creating her own breathwork modality and how she knew she had to share it with the world
  • Applying her results driven attitude to breathwork and using intentionality in her work
  • Manipulating the breath to be tailored toward certain experiences
  • Removing our protectors to get out of our mental brains and into intuition
  • Samantha’s vision for breathwork and for creating an app to help people with breathwork
  • How every state of being has its own breath pattern
  • How Samantha uses imagination and visualization to create things

A lot of us struggle with learning to live in the now. Some people are constantly living in the past and thinking about what’s happened in their lives while others are focused on the future and what will happen next. Today’s guest, Daniel Levin is the author of The Mosaic and one of my personal mentors. In this episode, we talk about what a gift it is to be able to truly live in the now and how life’s uncertainty makes him feel most alive. He shares how to be more kind to yourself, how the words we use shape the identity of who we become and the power of showing up as you are. 

 

About Daniel Levin:

 

Daniel Bruce Levin walked away from a huge opportunity (to work his way up from pushing a broom to running a billion-dollar business), to hitchhike around the world to find happiness and inner peace. His life has been dedicated to finding the peace and contentment that comes from truly knowing yourself. His mission has become holding the space for others to find that peace too.

 

He became the Director of Business Development at Hay House and played a big part in helping it grow from $3,000,000 to $100,000,000 over the next 10 years. He is the author of THE MOSAIC, a beautiful fable that touches the heart and soothes the soul, but to this day, he feels he is not the author. He knows it was the characters of the fable that actually wrote this story.

 

Inside this episode, Daniel shares:

 

  • Being compassionate with yourself about where you “should” be
  • How to practice being kind to yourself using the Mosaic process
  • Why people are scared to be vulnerable and be seen
  • The power in becoming the storyteller of your own identity
  • The gift of being at peace with who you are
  • Going deep within yourself to set that example for other people

Our bodies are capable of so much more than we often give them credit for. Today’s guest, Sanjay Rawal and I talked about how limiting our minds can be when we are exerting, whether that be physically or emotionally. We chatted about his new film and how spontaneity in life makes him feel most alive. He dives into how he realized he needed an inner purpose in life and what he did about it. We also chat about why you need self-discovery and how that’s often much different from self-love.

Sanjay spent 15 years working on human rights campaigns for acclaimed artists and philanthropists, one of whom encouraged him to start making films. Sanjayʼs first documentary, FOOD CHAINS (2014), was produced by Eva Longoria and Eric Schlosser with narration by Forest Whitaker.

Sanjayʼs second effort took a sharp turn. Applying narrative cinematic technique, Sanjay directed a sweeping expedition film. 3100: RUN AND BECOME was released theatrically in the US in 20 markets last fall.

  • How physical endurance helps with your spiritual progress
  • How our bodies capacity is far beyond our mind’s idea of our capacity
