Transcendence - Become Your Ultimate Self | Consciousness Expert, Dr. Tony Nader

So, the best thing one can do is to transcend, transcend. Go beyond the surface, go to the self, anchor your ship in the bottom of the ocean, and then no matter how big the waves are on the surface, you are solidly strong and established in stability and strength.

Thanks.

Okay, welcome back.

There is something about that music that I love. That intro music gets me. And if you're new here, welcome to the Finding Mastery podcast. I'm Michael Gervais, and by trade and training, I'm a sports and performance psychologist. I am flat out fortunate enough to work with some of the most extraordinary thinkers and doers across the planet. And the impetus of this podcast was to celebrate how they work, to celebrate their psychology. We wanted to pull back the curtain and explore how they've committed to mastering both their craft and their minds. Now, you recognize, all humans recognize that our minds can be one of our greatest assets. And if you want to learn more about how you can train your mind, this is just a quick little reminder here to check out the online psychological training course that we built where we pull together the best practices to meet that unique intersection of the psychology of high performance and the psychology of wellbeing. So we walk through 16 essential principles and skills for you to train your mind in the same way that we train world-class athletes. And you can find all of that at findingmastery.net forward slash course.

Finding Mastery is brought to you by Listening. This is exactly what their app does. It helps you listen to books and content that you might not be able to sit down and actually have the time to read. There was a time early in my career where I remember sitting in the back hallways of my university and being in the library for hours reading all of the sports psychology literature and research that I could get my hands on. I loved it, I cherished it. The field of sports psychology is just absolutely on a bender right now. It is growing so fast, it is nearly impossible to keep up with all of the research that's coming out. So that's why I love what Listening is doing. It's a game changer for me. So the Listening app, it lets me listen to anything that's in writing while I'm on the go. Everything from academic papers to books, PDFs, web pages, articles, anything that I put in their app, it reads it to me, it narrates to me. And plus their AI is great. The way that the interface sounds, like of course it's not a human that's reading, but it kind of, the AI is so good of what they're doing, it just works. And then there's also this note taking function. They know that people like us like to take notes. And so it's as simple as when I hear a key idea, I just, I instantly press a button and that section is saved. They've done a really nice job with this product and they've got a great offer for us. Usually they only give a two week trial, but because you are listening to Finding Mastery, you get a whole month for free. Check that out, a whole month for free. So I wanna encourage you to go check it out. listening.com/findingmastery or use the code Finding Mastery at checkout to get started. Again, it's listening.com/findingmastery or use the code Finding Mastery at checkout to get one month completely free. Finding Mastery is brought to you by Ritual. They are a supplement company. They just care about what they're doing. They are flat out committed.

And they've got this idea that Ritual has made traceable, which means that their products are made with a visible supply chain so that you can see exactly what they're doing, their key ingredients, the supply chain, the research, the whole thing. For companies that are showing you exactly what's on the inside, exactly how they're doing it so that you know and feel comfortable knowing what you're consuming, I think it's a really nice touch. I think it's required. I think they are setting the standard for supplement companies. The product that I'm using right now that I flat out love is their Synbiotic. It's a three-in-one gut health supplement that microbiome is really important. So, I need it, I think that you might benefit from it too, but of course I don't know. Go check out what they're doing. And it just gives me this piece of mind knowing that this is a company, this is a brand that doesn't cut corners. If you haven't had the chance to listen to our Finding Mastery episode with Rituals founder, Katarina Schneider, I really wanna encourage you to go check that out. It's episode 428, she's awesome. It's a fascinating conversation where Kat beautifully describes her story and Ritual's mission. They are investing in their company's quality so that you can invest in the quality of your life. So I wanna encourage you to head over to ritual.com/mastery to get 25% off your first month of Ritual. And that's where you can get started on their subscription model. Again, this one's just a little different. It's ritual.com/mastery for 25% off.
