Jamming with Jason Mefford

"Dreamin', dreamin' is free"... and we can all use a little more dreaming about what we really, authentically want in this life. Often I find myself just going through the motions of life and this song has been in my head the last week, so it's a great topic for another Jamming with Jason episode, and a good reminder to turn on the dreaming again! I talk about the song lyrics...

Everyone has a father and a mother. How is your relationship with your parents? If you have children, what is your relationship with them?

We spend most of our day asleep and at work, so the culture and company we work for has a tremendous impact on our well-being. How has work changed in a hybrid environment? How can organizations, executives, and managers treat employee well-being as important as profits? How as an employee can you make choices to ensure your well-being is considered so you live a healthy and vibrant life? This and...

"True growth is not growing inside of someone else's system of values and beliefs... It is finding and discovering your own." In this episode we take Brad's first impression about the quote and discuss how our indoctrination from childhood leads to the values and beliefs we often have now... many of which we may no longer believe or may be questioning, and how living others value...

Do you eat bread, or are you gluten-free? Bread, one of the staples of life that people have been eating for millions of year, but it gets a bad rap in our culture. Maybe the problem isn't bread, maybe it's the bread you are eating. In this video I discuss bread, why?... you may not realize what is in bread these days, not all bread is created equal, and maybe you are believing some things...

Most of the "food" you are sold is not actually food. It's dead. By the time it reaches your table it's preserved, processed, modified, sugared, salted and chemically altered to where it no longer represents to good, life giving qualities of nutrition. Your body can't digest it properly and it makes one sick. We are getting fatter, and yet are much more malnourished than ever...

The topic of #money came up today while I was recording an upcoming #podcast episode, and it got me thinking... What if we can start perceiving money differently? What if we can focus on wealth instead of riches? What if money was no longer a driving force and often all-consuming focus in our lives? Can we change how we do business? Absolutely! Can we change how we consume? Absolutely! So since I...

In this episode we share some experiences we have both had with following signs, so you can start recognizing and following guidance. It doesn't always come the same way and different people receive differe...

Ayni is a funny sounding word that has a huge impact on your growth and evolvement. If you are struggling to manifest it could be that you are energetically out of alignment with the universe and it's probably time to learn about and start practicing ayni.

“If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.”― Nikola Tesla.

Did you know you can't make time? We say it all the time, but we can't make time... we can only take time for those things that really matter to us. And, time is not real and just an illusion anyway but we spend most of our lives being a slave to the clock. In this video I talk about time, which is not always on our side, and keeps slipping away. If we don't understand and use time to...

Many people on the spiritual path give up attachment to physical and monetary assets. Some sell or give away almost everything and move to a monastery in the mountains, but that isn't really necessary and isn't practical for most people. The Buddha is often quoted as saying "the root of suffering is attachment" and it's not just attachment to physical or monetary things. We d...
