Checked Out, By Master Zi and Radheya

This week Master Zi and Radheya are considering checking out of the 24-hour news stream and checking in to life.  We discuss why the news is no longer beneficial, and why too much information is leading us down a path of poor health.  The time we dedicate to keeping up with the latest politics, trends, and events is taking over the time we are present for our life.  What if we could take a pause on watching that half hour show, and instead do a work out?  When is enough...enough? We explore how the mainstream manipulates our perspectives and not necessarily for the best.

Opinions and Facts, By Master Zi and Radheya

Well, that's what we explore today and how to navigate this concerning trend.

Alive But Not Living, By Master Zi and Radheya

When we're walking around the state of anxiety, we are not present.  This is the topic this week as we explore what it means to truly be alive and living.  Anxiety takes us out of the present.  One of Radheya's favorite quote of Zi's is "if you're not present, then you're not living."  Living in a 24/7 society with phones has drastically changed changed our human experience.  While we must face fates and stressful circumstances, to be in this state chronically leads to disease.  This week the guys explore ways to overcome this way of being and restore our vibrant life.
