United By Stoke - Chin up Chest out We Rise Above

We all have the same insecurities so let’s talk about it! None of us are that special that we are exempt from feeling human emotions. Guess what we all bleed red and we all use a bathroom and for the most part our minds are all wired somewhat similarly.   So do not get it twisted when someone says “I don’t care what you, they, he, she thinks” because as each one of us who has ever said that (yup I...

What if this Is the last time I am Able to?!!  Going back to the very first few years and months on my training way back I every now and again remember the amazing and beautiful lessons of the ancient Japanese Tea Ceremony. This beautiful event is handed down generation to generation and since then I personally applied it to my own tea time. Which is to just be mindful when I enjoy a cup of tea, t...

More kids should get weight loss surgery even some preteens is the headline from an AP article. And I love what my man Gerald Celente replied to this article via twitter saying ‘we sure have come a long sick way from an apple a day keeps the doctor away’.   I could not agree more. It seems that as an absolute last resort ok maybe I can agree there is an option for this. However when most children...

Feeling Massively Frustrated and out of place.   This is from the KP blog and he worded this so well that I had to jump in and give my 2 cents as well. I see and have been seeing this gain momentum for the last few months and I continue to say there are those who will go deeper into a sleep (maybe even have given up on life) and there are those who continue to wake up to all the beauty and joy lif...

Popeye’s chaos chicken sandwich rampage, it’s next level people. I have been saying this for the last 4-6 months now, there are going to many who go deeper into that mental sleep, that matrix, that lower vibrating energy. As well there are those who are going to wake the phuck up out of it all and finally start to live their life!   It is an amazing time to be alive.   There is and are so many rea...

How to be gentle with yourself in times of knowing we need to change or be better. Not an easy thing. For myself personally and how my training was taught to me was very old school very strict and very authentic.  So I took that same mentality into the changes I implemented into my lifestyle. Now something we talk about all the time here is our mental state. So for me being so rigid, so discipline...

Detox the body benefits and why all major religions and ancient cultures did it?  So as most of you who listen regularly know I have been cleansing 2 times a year for the last 12 plus years. I fully believe in it and I fully subscribe to all the benefits it has provided me along my journey. I feel it is my secret sauce, one of the things that separates good from great.  What it does internally to...

Vitamin b 12 and vegans and all other dietary intakes.    This was a question brought forth to me today as I sat in my most favourite, most comfortable, my go to spot for food 24/7. I had a green juice and a fruit bowl siting in front of me for my first meal of the day, and I was excited to get at it.    Now my man who is on the opposite side of the health train from me (rougher lifestyle, partyin...

Humans as Amabots is this the next phase? #IYP A student or a protege of mine came to me today with a slew of different news sound bites and he wanted to see where my head was at with them all. However in zen my goal is not to push any of my ideas, beliefs, or thoughts onto anyone.  So what I did was to allow him to speak to see where his mind set is at. I was reminded that we all start to wake up...

Militant activism how not to be in 2019 #IYP We are all fighting for dominance it’s seems these days. The right to be heard, the right to be seen, the freedom of speech, and the freedom of belief. How will it all play out when all any of us are really doing is trying to assert dominance over other's by yelling, and telling, even preaching that our way, our beliefs are the only ones that matter!? ...

Kids allowance in the 2020's #IYP   Boy how times have changed and boy how the world we live in has changed. These are just fact's and issue's each human has to deal with as the days pass us by.   So a study that was done and released today which is about kids and their allowances, and I found this paper very interesting. The average allowance now for most youths under 10 is 120 dollars a month.  ...

Riot Cop Shoots Hong Kong Protester with live round #IYP So my thoughts on this news which showed up today was one of being in the middle. I wonder if we all stand up and take a stand in what it is we believe in deeply could we all really and truly make a change?  Then on the flip side I wonder in 100 or 200 years will any of this even matter? Some of the great darmah talks I have witnessed, all t...

The Pyramid Sheme and Why We Fall For it #IYP   The Pyramid Scheme it must be as old as time itself. I as always in my talks witnessed today a talk or an indoctrination from a group of people trying to get the next group of people signed up under them so that these new recruits could go out and make the others rich! Rite we have all been there seen this and done that.   Yet what resonated with me...

Fat tax politically correct? #IYP  Well, that was not the point of the conversation I overheard but some of the facts that came out made me stand up and take a listen and do some checking of my own. So who pays for all this burden on the medical system?  We the people it is that simple. So when you find out that over 20% of the US Navy is obese and overweight, and as you dig deeper you find it cou...

Are you happy now and what does that mean? Happy or happiness have any one of us actually been taught to seek this or look for this or better yet the fact would be to be this. Have any of us been taught what it is or what it feels like to be happy.  Do we seek jobs that make us happy, I feel some do yes but I also feel in this day and age with numbers like 72% of North Americans not liking their j...

Women Stabs Child in the Face While Walking With His Family #IYP At Ignite Your Purpose we focus mainly on health and self care and being better. This clip that you can find all over the internet show exactly how we truly have no clue what is going on mentally in anyone's head. The what the why the reason but something we do feel is that diet, nutrition, and what we feed our soul daily is what sho...

Heart Stress Test And The Outcomes #IYP (Part 2) Heart stress test and the outcomes that come from them (I have never done one in a medical office) but I was asked to go for a chin wag today over a cup of tea and the conversation we had was about his heart stress test. I found the entire process very interesting (anyone can look up online what they do in a test like this) after he spoke about the...

Inspired To Action For Our Growth #IYP Inspired to action for our growth by the little things all around us if we pay attention to it and for it. As always I talk about the tales I experience in my day to day life which end up being learning lesson for growth. So I have been inspired to action by those whom are in long term care in the hospital which I have had to visit as of late with a little in...

How to Slow Down Life For The Better #IYP How to Slow down life for the better and enjoy the little things each and every one of us take for granted each second of the day. What I am talking about the little things like sight, smell, touch, sound, love, freedom, health, friends, family, sky, earth.... I could go on for days!  So why am I talking about this, well let me say this doing something and...

The Answer to Everything Is Within Us #IYP The answer to everything is Within Us, yet we (myself at least) tend to look for answers or maybe conformation or even maybe our worth or value based on an outside opinion.  Now because of this simple factor of giving our power away, we (well me personally) tend to freeze up with doubts about what others man think, or say, and then NOT end up doing that c...

Millennial Foods and Apps Where Is It Going? #IYP Millennial Foods and apps where is it going, and how is it going to effect the health of the nation and planet? It is something that needs just a little awareness shed onto it as with this instant get anything and do anything now world we live, which is also very involved around us being attached to a phone, computer or some type of device which th...

Following The Crowd, Where Does It Get Us? #IYP Following the crowd, where does that get us really? It is a human trait we all fall prey to, this is a fact. Myself included time and time again it happens to me...if I do not know what it is in the end that I want, or what my end goal is.  That is when I will fall prey to it, as well if I do zero research on the "thing" it is that the crowd is follo...

Not Giving Up On You #IYP Not Giving Up on You or better yet not giving up on yourself! It is that simple and the first thing I want to callout on today's show is the fact that if you are following people on social media that claim it's always perfect in life or it's always blue sky and rainbow's please unfollow them because that is not real life, remember we are all human and things both good and...

The Attention Span Of A Goldfish #IYP The attention span of a goldfish which is something like 7-12 seconds is that what we have succumb to? Is that not incredible, I think so, and sadly it is something we are seeing more and more as the days go by with all the gadgets, goodies and technology as it progresses and pushes forward. So have we become one with the goldfish? Or has all this screen time...
