I am opening up FREE 30-Minute calls for people who are feeling stuck, unsure how to proceed, and looking for guidance on how move forward in life.
After 8 years in the monastery and working with thousands of people, I’ve found some of the core reasons people struggle to change.

Let’s hop on a call, I’d love to help:

When people learn that I used to be a Buddhist monk, they generally respond with a mixture of surprise and fascination.
And yet no matter where in the world I am or who I talk to, I always get the same questions:

1. What was that like?
2. Why’d you do that?
3. Why’d you leave?
4. What was one takeaway from your time there?

The first question I’ve always found rather vague and a bit confronting. Mainly brxuse it’s difficult to put 8 years of my life into a neatly summarized answer. Sometimes I just smile and say, “It was good.”

Questions two and three actually have the same answer for me. I went to the monastery and also left the monastery because at the time it felt like the next right thing to do for my life. (Which is pretty much the same reason why I’ve done anything).

The last question is the most interesting and also by far the most challenging to answer. That’s mostly because there are so many different answers to give that are all equally true. But if I had to create some sort of shortlist of takeaways off the top of my head, they would be this:

- Be responsible for yourself. You are an incredibly powerful being once you own your own actions and reactions.

- Create happiness in the world around you, and you will experience more happiness in your life.

- You don’t need to believe everything you think (in fact, be very discerning about which thoughts, beliefs, stories, and narratives you are making real).

- Focus on the space around things and they will lose their power.

-Healing is possible, don’t be afraid of your feeling, embrace them and they will dissolve

-Karma is real. The universe has an inbuilt reciprocation of energy, if you act in virtuous alignment with it you will receive benefit back, if you act against it then it will act against you.

-Meditation reveals deep levels of reality. Your mind is the center of your experiential world, so if you are working to calm and focus your mind you see the world more clearly and will be better at literally everything you do.

Feel free to reach out and chat more about this and maybe I’ll explain how I went from wearing robes to working with Ai. 🙏🤖❤️ by @sethmonk

Well… I guess I should be the first to tell you that I make a short appearance alongside my friends in the @hbodocs documentary of @burningman called @themanwillburn.
Myself, @majyk.art and @damianalovesyou made a last minute call to drive out the ‘cancelled’ 2021 event and take part in what is now called the “Renegade Burn”.
This year was noteworthy because the organization cancelled the event officially due to Covid concerns and the community decided to go and do it anyway.
It was a truly magical experience and I do remember this interview although I was never told it would be on HBO. (I wonder if I get @imdb credits for this 😜)
