Love the suck, embrace the brutality, amor fati, welcome your negative emotions... great advice that I hope I will figure out how to take someday. This was one of my favorite episodes!
I spend most of my time with horses that might be trained but haven’t been tamed. My approach is to reward on the relaxation …a highly responsive horse who hasn’t been taught to let down can live its entire life in performance mode. This of course translates to the rest of us.😘
Regarding "effort" and the desire to control. I learned a principle in martial arts ages ago about how to use force when striking: "Hard to soft, Soft to hard." Which is the notion that if you strike with your fist against a hard bony target like the face, skull, or hard joints, you're very likely to break your knuckles. But if you strike those target points with an open hand strike, you can apply a similar level of force while protecting yourself from harm. Inversely, soft targets like the abdomen are better for striking with a closed hand to transfer more force with a concentrated point of attack and the closed fist allows you to strike a bit deeper for the additional reach. This isn't a lesson about fighting, I promise. I learned to apply this principle to my life for dealing with problems or situations. Hard to soft - change the problems I can change. Do the work. Don't sit idly by and allow a problem to remain a problem when I have the power to resolve it. Soft to hard- when the problem can't be changed or there IS no solution to it, I have to change the way *I* react to it. I change myself around the problem. And I think this philosophy strikes the balance between having agency over your life, and also finding acceptance in the aspects that you are merely subject to. I think that too much force or desire to control, or too much of a laissez-faire mentality BOTH take you out of balance and lead to problems in life and in your emotional well-being. But that's just something I pieced together for me. 🤷♂️
34:34 - 36:36 - Once you figure out you have agency and empowerment, then the move is love...What we call love without empowerment is called Codependence. "How do I make you happy so that I can feel safe? It's a fear-based action. Empowerment without love is just power and you'll never get enough of it and it can always be taken from you. Powerful and clarifying!

“When a parent is telling a child to stop being selfish it is because the child isn’t doing what they want them to do” absolutely blew my mind. My mom would often call me a “selfish witch” growing up- but many people in my like have told me I’m selfless and compassionate towards others, because I never want people to hurt like I did when I was a kid. I’m realising now that maybe I am not the selfish one :/
Been tuning into this podcast for years now. So many awesome episodes full of really valuable information. This episode is full of equally valuable information BUT it also really stood out that you both were having fun and thoroughly enjoying the time spent together. I smiled and laughed so much watching this! Definitely helps the information sink in deeper for longer. Thankyou both for your time and enthusiasm 😊
I don't know if you read your comments Chris, but I always want to hug you whenever you mention wanting to be liked. You've really helped me, and I really want to help you. One of my super powers is being liked. So, you may have figured this out, but I'll share with you the magic recipe just in case. It's equal parts being radically authentic, completely sincere, unquestioningly honest, truly interested in the other person, not being disrespectful, and just enjoying yourself. Mix it all together, drink it down, and you'll never have to worry about being liked again. You are completely lovable and probably the only one who doesn't see it. And no, I am sure if I really knew you I'd still be saying the same thing - don't even go there.
You mentioned "Enough", and I had to share a poem that I would recite to my daughter. “I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright no matter how gray the day may appear. I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun even more. I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive and everlasting. I wish you enough pain so that even the smallest of joys in life may appear bigger. I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting. I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess. I wish you enough hellos to get you through the final goodbye.” - Bob Perks I live a Pius life and only earn enough. Because others need the charity that I don't deserve.
The cyclist who died was Gino Mader at the Tour de Suisse, Stage 5 (not at the Giro). As always, it's not just death, it's serious injury - for instance recent winners of the Tour Chris Froome, Egan Bernal, Jonas Vingegaard have all been involved in very serious accidents which resulted in extended stays in hospital. Pro-cycling seems to be where F1 was in, say, the 1970s and 80s where safety of competitors is severely compromised, often by the organisations running the sport.
This was one of my ten favorite podcasts that you've done, Chris. You both gave me quite a bit to think about, and as always, your questions were really good. Thanks.
even yoga, therapy and mindfulness tools with practice cant shut the voices up when you're overly productive in a fast pace society. Fantastic episode.
I did this with loneliness. I hated being alone until I just started telling myself that I want to be alone. I convinced myself that I needed to be alone in order to feel better. Now I love my solitude!
Wow! This guy is phenomenal! Blown away by his insight + so cool to know that others think of who is seeing behind the eyes. Thank you Chris for bringing beautiful guests like this + your blessed curiosity. ❤
Hey yall. Loving this talk. Emotional work exists in other places! Hakomi, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, and John F Barnes Myofascial Release to name a few. I wanted to mention these as they might be more accessible for folks in their local communities (in North America/ Europe). Carry on 😊
The topic around people being able to say no resonates with me thinking back on growing up with my stepfather. I will never forget my brother making a comment that my relationship with him was more advantageous than his, understanding that saying no means you can trust a person connected the dots that that might be the reason it came across that he "preferred" my relationship with him. It might just be because my brother could never say no when he would disagree with our stepfather. I was never afraid to say no or speak up when I did not agree with what he said or did. So interesting
This conversation has, without a doubt, been orchestrated by the Creator of the heavens and the earth! ❤ From the bottom of my heart; thank you to every member of the teams for making this a reality! This knowledge set me free from so much self hatred, resentment, wrath, sadness and so much more. I welcome my emotions. Thank you all for being a part of the reasons as to how this episode was made manifest❤
When I finally feel acceptance, I feel free! I would love to hear that word more often! I would love to see you do a podcast on what happens when we accept things and the outcomes from doing so.
I like how relaxed you were for this interview, Chris. I love all your interviews and am a huge fan. I also typically see you as guarded and I felt I saw YOU this time as you facilitated this fantastic conversation. 🙏🏻❤️
This is such an insightful talk! Absolutely loved it, reoriented my entire worldview and general outlook on life about an hour in ❤❤❤ keep doing the great work you do, Chris!! I’ll be here to listen ❤
Those emotions we avoid becomes an addiction… self destructive since worthiness et al are the underlying need and that can only come from within taking responsibility for what one feels.
I don't know if you'll see this, but I hope you are able to do more podcasts on this topic of emotions and strategies that might help. Anything more in depth on nervous system dysregulation? Have you looked into that? I am not sure how well those episodes do clicks-wise, but it's just so damn interesting. Anyways, thanks as always
It's awesome to see that guys are finally prioritizing feeling their feelings, but the more I hear about how challenging it is for men to feel their feelings, the more I realize how unusual of a child I was. Lol. I was pretty self-aware by age 10 and learned how to manage my emotions by my early 20's. The strategy I used was two pronged: 1) What am I feeling? 2) Why am I feeling this emotioin? It took me out of the state of "feeling the emotion" to look at myself more objecttively, and understand the root of the emotion. I'd say understanding the root of the emotion continues to be the most important thing in mastering emotions. Since emotions are merely "signals" of an issue, it's pointless to just control the signals. Putting tape over the check engine light won't make the problem go away, nor will just getting excited about the light fix the issue. The real fun begins when one seeks to bring the subconscious to the conscious stage. When done successfully, it's an amazing tool. But it's not for the faint of heart.
Hi! Just wanna share my own quote: 1. " Why compete when you know who you are and you know your worth " . 2. I don't compete I motivate 😊. I want to inspire and motivate some people who came from poor family that they can change their circumstances. From the bottom to middle if not on the super top . I like this type of talk not too deep but practical and very informative and useful.
I really like modern wisdom series, and then I saw the title "escape the matrix" and thought "oh no he felt for the dude bro podcast shit, on the way to something something hard man. Oh dear." Then i saw the title. Dear Lord, that is some proper marketing, looking forward to the interview:D
Powerful episode! It's easy to tell that he walks the talk. His vibe and expression is so refreshing and grounding. Excited to dig further into Joe Hudson's work.
Hi Chris! I once was training into a gym in London, then a impressive guy came, we greet, afther that he told me that I look similar to an cool TH-camr Chris Williamson... Then I checked you channel, and from then I find myself enjoying you content
I've been to the Miraval Spa in Tucson. I went after my dad had died for some much needed self-care. I also did the equine therapy. At first I couldn't get the horse to lift it's leg but once I removed any expectations it did. I'm curious whether your horse did for you. One of the other things I did was a drum circle with Tony Redhouse. It was very cathartic. I highly recommend Miraval.
Emotions are rational. We use both thinking and feeling to inform decisions. It's like saying a bike or a horse is not rational. When both serve a purpose and you have to know what your doing for both. Dr. Caroline Leaf explains these things and other zen books on meditation. Same as the saying do you hit the horse or the cart with the whip. Or how many times do you hit the horse before it moves. All the same question
😊I once went side saddle when a horse I was riding called Shotgun took off into the desert…when I finally fell off and hit the ground I barely escaped landing on a huge cactus…I’ve never been horse riding since! Asking myself; Should I try to face that fear someday? Maybe I could work some things out in my life through Equine Therapy 💜 Just saying
It's been on the back on mind to go horseback riding sometime this year, but after watching this, Chris has really changed my mind to try horse meditation instead 😂
I think we see people who sacrifice other aspects of their lives to be great at something, we see something that is extraordinary in human being that they know most people are not capable of or willing to do. Be it musicians, athletes. These people spent their entire lives working on their crafts. Same with investment. If you dabble in it, you can never be as good as someone like Warren Buffett who think about this every minute of the day. This is the excellence that some people strive for and we view them with awe.
Regarding the transformation of "passion" in a relationship into "long-term bonding" It's like Game of Thrones when the Dragon Chick is SUPER good at conquering cities, and shitty at managing them. The skills that help you conquer a city will not help you rule it. Passion in the beginning of a relationship is cultivating attraction to eachother. It's discovering what you like, what you value, how you think, act, and live. It's learning to "like" them. But that tapers off because eventually you already KNOW all that stuff. It's just... there. Then the journey becomes the maintenance phase where it's more about cooperation towards common goals, small gestures to DEMONSTRATE continued affection. Growing in trust and mutual ambition. Which can feel.... weird. When you fall out of that "new love" phase and you no longer get super turned on just from the little touching or kissing and the things that thrilled you are now just your mutual "normal", it can feel like something has been lost or fallen off. But what it really is, is that the foundation of what you're building together has been fully formed, and now you're changing gears to build something even more on top of it. And the sense of comfort and fulfillment that takes the place of passion from being with your person will never make you feel like you've lost anything. As long as you both remember to have fun and not get complacent about eachother. Comfort is NOT the same as complacency. You should always feel safe and like you have someone who will always be your one. But don't take it for granted that you "have" them. Life changes. People change. Sometimes that peace is temporary. Moreso when you forget the value of it...
Regarding being "better, worse, or special". I have an analogy for the nature of existence and our experiences and individuality. An epiphany that struck me while watching my son playing with bubbles. What are bubbles? Just soapy water mixture filled with air. All the same soapy solution. All filled with the same air. Yet there ARE individual bubbles. Each one coming into existence through their own unique size, shape, and moment. All floating and interacting, drifting and bumping through the world. And when they pop, they don't cease to exist. The air returns to the air. The soapy solution that makes its shape changes form but does not cease to exist in the world. Every bubble is simultaneously "special" with its own individuality, occupying its own space in the world, and traveling on its own unique trajectory through its life affected by the wind, its movement against other bubbles, and interactions with the environment. And yet they are ALL bubbles made of the same things, inside and out... I believe that's what we are as well. And the desire to be any more or any less than anyone else is a denial that the very aspects that make you unique and special exist in every single person. When you deny them that, you subconsciously deny it to yourself as well.
My Mother when I was younger tried to stop me from doing something I knew that was good for me , she was even trying to choose who will be my friend and who will not . I always did what I thought was right thing to do . I am assuming . What kind of life is it if you do not live true to yourself ?
This was a refreshing episode. None of that finger pointing feminist crap that is usually part of this podcasts genre. And he didn't bring up the list!!
I normally dnt disagree with this podcast. Yet on this point that just being is not all you need to do to become, that is false. Just being itself, true there is no real duality between them, there is at the same time. They both exist together. You try to sit for an 1hr a day or even 15 minutes without doing anything, you will find just how difficult it can be to pay attention to yourself. Similarly, the answer to your question, how do we use this being and becoming in everything we do like being a boss or working out, the answer to that question is zen... When you can sit with you and realize for yourself what that means, you will become... And at the same time, there is nothing you need to do to become. At the same time your doing it, it is doing you... Just some things to add to the conversation
"Reverse charisma" is called "charm" 😂 Charm is the characteristics that make OTHER people feel good about themselves just by being around you. In the grand scheme of life, our actions, our presence, our influence. Even the details of our relationships fade. Most people couldn't pinpoint their FAVORITE moment about you. But they will remember how you make them feel. Be charming.
Look closely at his face, especially his forehead, one half is smooth, and the other half has wrinkles-you can really see the edges beetween, smooth and rought . I don't know if that's a webcam filter on his end, but something weird is happening anyway. :)
I must be an idiot savant. Some of things discussed are observations and revelations I've had on my own over the past (way too many) decades. As an example, paraphrasing Joe about the being artful in business and business like in art perfectly parallels my view of art and science, or any engineering skill. The masters of both of those realms approach the other. How many times have you heard someone comment about another's artistic skill as "down to a science" or complimenting an engineer's solution as being "artistic".
Well...if you change from algoritms ..to spirituality, lets say... Perhaps it's easier to fully understand... If you act with algoritms, you are NOT relating to feelings...or perhaps you are only allowing yourself those feelings towards children,animals, plants , Stones...but you won't want to share feelings with your peers nor your past lineage... Remember, feelings...are related to sex...addictions, restrictions, play,... So replacing your Desire because of challenges from your lineage...can be healied, if you decide to take the Risk and go towards a healthy relationship without abuse❤
What you resist persists? Not if you resist it appropriately. Lol. Well the guest has some pretty good points, it seems to be grossly simplified and thus inaccurate for many of us.
It's important to specify that "what you resist persists" refers to largely to emotions and interior experience, not outside factors. If you've ever met somebody who always represses their anger, you can see this in action. They're constantly tense and clamped down because they're actively resisting their anger!

I was pretty self-aware by age 10 and learned how to manage my emotions by my early 20's. The strategy I used was two pronged:
1) What am I feeling?
2) Why am I feeling this emotioin?
It took me out of the state of "feeling the emotion" to look at myself more objecttively, and understand the root of the emotion. I'd say understanding the root of the emotion continues to be the most important thing in mastering emotions.
Since emotions are merely "signals" of an issue, it's pointless to just control the signals. Putting tape over the check engine light won't make the problem go away, nor will just getting excited about the light fix the issue.
The real fun begins when one seeks to bring the subconscious to the conscious stage. When done successfully, it's an amazing tool. But it's not for the faint of heart.

Hi! Just wanna share my own quote:
1. " Why compete when you know who you are and you know your worth " .
2. I don't compete I motivate 😊.
I want to inspire and motivate some people who came from poor family that they can change their circumstances. From the bottom to middle if not on the super top .
I like this type of talk not too deep but practical and very informative and useful.
I really like modern wisdom series, and then I saw the title "escape the matrix" and thought "oh no he felt for the dude bro podcast shit, on the way to something something hard man. Oh dear." Then i saw the title. Dear Lord, that is some proper marketing, looking forward to the interview:D
Powerful episode! It's easy to tell that he walks the talk. His vibe and expression is so refreshing and grounding. Excited to dig further into Joe Hudson's work.
Right now I am FEELING allot of gratitude for hearing this conversation ☺️🤗
Really enjoy and grow with each of your podcasts. Thanks for putting other things aside and focusing on this process. It’s worth it!
My favorite coach. Great pick Chris!
Hi Chris!
I once was training into a gym in London, then a impressive guy came, we greet, afther that he told me that I look similar to an cool TH-camr Chris Williamson... Then I checked you channel, and from then I find myself enjoying you content
Thanks Chris & Joe. Amaizing conversation.
Brilliant-would love to practice these experiments
This was the most enjoyable since a long time
17:22 This made me think about Goggins like isn't his whole thing the contrary of this?
Extremely fascinated by this one especially, thank you thank you thank you!!
I've been to the Miraval Spa in Tucson. I went after my dad had died for some much needed self-care. I also did the equine therapy. At first I couldn't get the horse to lift it's leg but once I removed any expectations it did. I'm curious whether your horse did for you. One of the other things I did was a drum circle with Tony Redhouse. It was very cathartic. I highly recommend Miraval.
Chris you've been talking about feeling feelings a lot. You should get Teal Swan on your show.
I love Chris's therapy arch. This sort of stuff is beneficial to everyone, great job man!
This is the most over complicated conversation of hunting for peace, love and joy.
Heal the childhood trauma and the rest will fall into place.
dr joe dispenza preaches this
Perfect Timing. Thank you
This was fantastic!
As I try to feel feelings. The candor. Good for you.
love it when the bro science Chris kicks in :) awesome episode, thanks Chris and Joe
You can’t change your thoughts through changing your feelings, but you can change your feelings by changing your thoughts.
Emotions are rational. We use both thinking and feeling to inform decisions. It's like saying a bike or a horse is not rational. When both serve a purpose and you have to know what your doing for both. Dr. Caroline Leaf explains these things and other zen books on meditation. Same as the saying do you hit the horse or the cart with the whip. Or how many times do you hit the horse before it moves. All the same question
😊I once went side saddle when a horse I was riding called Shotgun took off into the desert…when I finally fell off and hit the ground I barely escaped landing on a huge cactus…I’ve never been horse riding since! Asking myself; Should I try to face that fear someday? Maybe I could work some things out in my life through Equine Therapy 💜 Just saying
Hey, everyone, let's master our emotions together. I promise I will work harder.
amazing episode, thank you
It's been on the back on mind to go horseback riding sometime this year, but after watching this, Chris has really changed my mind to try horse meditation instead 😂
I love learning ways to do things but I do wonder if the tips and techniques apply to people with Adhd!
I think we see people who sacrifice other aspects of their lives to be great at something, we see something that is extraordinary in human being that they know most people are not capable of or willing to do. Be it musicians, athletes. These people spent their entire lives working on their crafts. Same with investment. If you dabble in it, you can never be as good as someone like Warren Buffett who think about this every minute of the day. This is the excellence that some people strive for and we view them with awe.
Thank you! 🙌
Regarding the transformation of "passion" in a relationship into "long-term bonding"
It's like Game of Thrones when the Dragon Chick is SUPER good at conquering cities, and shitty at managing them.
The skills that help you conquer a city will not help you rule it.
Passion in the beginning of a relationship is cultivating attraction to eachother. It's discovering what you like, what you value, how you think, act, and live. It's learning to "like" them.
But that tapers off because eventually you already KNOW all that stuff. It's just... there.
Then the journey becomes the maintenance phase where it's more about cooperation towards common goals, small gestures to DEMONSTRATE continued affection. Growing in trust and mutual ambition.
Which can feel.... weird.
When you fall out of that "new love" phase and you no longer get super turned on just from the little touching or kissing and the things that thrilled you are now just your mutual "normal", it can feel like something has been lost or fallen off.
But what it really is, is that the foundation of what you're building together has been fully formed, and now you're changing gears to build something even more on top of it.
And the sense of comfort and fulfillment that takes the place of passion from being with your person will never make you feel like you've lost anything. As long as you both remember to have fun and not get complacent about eachother.
Comfort is NOT the same as complacency. You should always feel safe and like you have someone who will always be your one. But don't take it for granted that you "have" them. Life changes. People change.
Sometimes that peace is temporary. Moreso when you forget the value of it...
thank you ❤
🔥🔥🔥 episode
lets go!
Valuable conversation❤️
Very useful and practical.
Great interview and AMAZING idea for how to structure it 🥰
I'm super curiouse how interview with dr. Mindy Pelz would look like in your version 🤔
Regarding being "better, worse, or special".
I have an analogy for the nature of existence and our experiences and individuality.
An epiphany that struck me while watching my son playing with bubbles.
What are bubbles? Just soapy water mixture filled with air.
All the same soapy solution. All filled with the same air.
Yet there ARE individual bubbles. Each one coming into existence through their own unique size, shape, and moment. All floating and interacting, drifting and bumping through the world.
And when they pop, they don't cease to exist. The air returns to the air. The soapy solution that makes its shape changes form but does not cease to exist in the world.
Every bubble is simultaneously "special" with its own individuality, occupying its own space in the world, and traveling on its own unique trajectory through its life affected by the wind, its movement against other bubbles, and interactions with the environment.
And yet they are ALL bubbles made of the same things, inside and out...
I believe that's what we are as well. And the desire to be any more or any less than anyone else is a denial that the very aspects that make you unique and special exist in every single person.
When you deny them that, you subconsciously deny it to yourself as well.
I need help - what does the quote "whats looking out behind my eyes" really mean? I didn't get it and google is not helping
As a 26-year-old bipolar male, learning to control my emotions is by far one of the most difficult battles in my life.
>
Interesting concept of avoiding emotional loops by back loading parables though the subconscious to generate unclouded realization.
Very inspiring talk! Where can I find the shownotes with all the links to Joes material, exercises and courses?
My Mother when I was younger tried to stop me from doing something I knew that was good for me , she was even trying to choose who will be my friend and who will not .
I always did what I thought was right thing to do .
I am assuming .
What kind of life is it if you do
not live true to yourself ?
spirituality is for knowing God, Source and Knowing Self. Meditation is a way towards spirituality.
What is the difference between welcoming emotions and dwelling on them???
With a horse either your the boss or it's the boss be stern but it has to trust you at the same time idk if that makes any sense. But it works
This was a refreshing episode. None of that finger pointing feminist crap that is usually part of this podcasts genre. And he didn't bring up the list!!
“ He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city"
Bible
I normally dnt disagree with this podcast. Yet on this point that just being is not all you need to do to become, that is false. Just being itself, true there is no real duality between them, there is at the same time. They both exist together. You try to sit for an 1hr a day or even 15 minutes without doing anything, you will find just how difficult it can be to pay attention to yourself. Similarly, the answer to your question, how do we use this being and becoming in everything we do like being a boss or working out, the answer to that question is zen... When you can sit with you and realize for yourself what that means, you will become... And at the same time, there is nothing you need to do to become. At the same time your doing it, it is doing you... Just some things to add to the conversation
This dude an emotional physicists
"Reverse charisma" is called "charm" 😂
Charm is the characteristics that make OTHER people feel good about themselves just by being around you.
In the grand scheme of life, our actions, our presence, our influence. Even the details of our relationships fade. Most people couldn't pinpoint their FAVORITE moment about you.
But they will remember how you make them feel.
Be charming.
Did someone use content-aware-fill on Joe's background?
Look closely at his face, especially his forehead, one half is smooth, and the other half has wrinkles-you can really see the edges beetween, smooth and rought . I don't know if that's a webcam filter on his end, but something weird is happening anyway. :)
Escape the matrix? I'm tryna plug more Into the matrix. Seems more efficient there...
I must be an idiot savant. Some of things discussed are observations and revelations I've had on my own over the past (way too many) decades.
As an example, paraphrasing Joe about the being artful in business and business like in art perfectly parallels my view of art and science, or any engineering skill. The masters of both of those realms approach the other. How many times have you heard someone comment about another's artistic skill as "down to a science" or complimenting an engineer's solution as being "artistic".
this guy blows JBP out tha agua
Joe💕
He has a nice smile
Well...if you change from algoritms ..to spirituality, lets say...
Perhaps it's easier to fully understand...
If you act with algoritms, you are NOT relating to feelings...or perhaps you are only allowing yourself those feelings towards children,animals, plants , Stones...but you won't want to share feelings with your peers nor your past lineage...
Remember, feelings...are related to sex...addictions, restrictions, play,...
So replacing your Desire because of challenges from your lineage...can be healied, if you decide to take the Risk and go towards a healthy relationship without abuse❤
Doing nothing, is doing something
What’s with the weird crop/not crop background fill-in thing in Joe’s video..? :-S
What you resist persists? Not if you resist it appropriately. Lol. Well the guest has some pretty good points, it seems to be grossly simplified and thus inaccurate for many of us.
It's important to specify that "what you resist persists" refers to largely to emotions and interior experience, not outside factors. If you've ever met somebody who always represses their anger, you can see this in action. They're constantly tense and clamped down because they're actively resisting their anger!
cool video
