Conscious Convo

We're back folks!   It's been quite some time, but both Craig and I have been eager to get back to do doing what we love so much. The break has done us much good and in the coming podcasts we will go over what has been going on in our lives, both spiritually and physically.    In the 39th conversation of our podcast series, Craig and I sit down to discuss how focusing on self-care can lead to a sense of narcissism if the proper attention or awareness isn't given to our intention. We also discuss how to find balance in such platforms such as social media.    Enjoy!  Follow us:   Instagram - @chet_karsan @craig_seatono2  Facebook - @chet.karsan.3 @craig.seaton.3

In the 38th conversation of our podcast series, joining us is special guest from London. Riki Warren is a calisthenics coach and Guinness world record holder. He's also a spiritual seeker, studying the ancient/traditional methods of Yoga. In this podcast, we discuss the discrepancies between the Western style of Yoga and the Eastern one. We link this to the cultural appropriation and the destruction of the culture of India.  Enjoy!   Follow us:   Instagram - @chet_karsan @craig_seatono2 @rix.official   Facebook - @chet.karsan.3 @craig.seaton.3

In the 36th conversation of our podcast series, Craig and I sit down to discuss how our time has been during the break we took before Christmas. We relate this to topic of revelation and reinventing oneself through addressing past issues/trauma. We also discuss how finding the light or 'your path' can lead to a sense of superiority over people that haven't quite found out their individual path. We relate this topic the comparisons between the Jedi and the Sith, from Star Wars.  Enjoy!  Follow us:  Instagram - @chet_karsan @craig_seatono2  Facebook - @chet.karsan.3 @craig.seaton.3

In the 35th conversation of our podcast series, I sit down with  Lucas Aaron, a mobility/flexibility coach at Real Movement, to talk about the misconceptions about stretching and training for flexibility. We also delve into the lack of understanding of how to properly rehab an injury and how training for flexibility is basically end-range strength training.    Enjoy!  Follow us:  Instagram - @chet_karsan @craig_seatono2 @rangeofstrength  Facebook - @chet.karsan.3 @craig.seaton.3

In the 34th conversation of our podcast series, Craig and I sit down to discuss how our perception of reality is shaped by the conditioning that has been happening throughout our entire life, particularly in our childhood. We relate this to how we interact with the external world through what we deem as our boundaries. We also discuss how segregation occurs through setting a high value on our feelings and emotions, which ends up creating a bias, one-sided view. And how this is displayed through political anger.   Enjoy! Follow us:  Instagram - @chet_karsan @craig_seatono2 Facebook - @chet.karsan.3 @craig.seaton.3

In the 33rd conversation of our podcast series, Craig and I sit down with a special guest, Muz, who has been in contact with Craig over the last year or so. Muz is a firefighter and a property developer, and gives us an insight into his life in both fields. He talks about the need for spaces for men to talk about their experiences (especially when their job makes them see horrific sightings of death on a regular basis). He also talks about using anxiety as a tool to help with trusting the body at making split second decisions when lives are at stake, and how a near death stabbing at the age of nine helped shape his perspective in life.   Enjoy!  Follow us:   Instagram - @chet_karsan @craig_seatono2 @muz_creates  Facebook - @chet.karsan.3 @craig.seaton.3

In the 32nd conversation of our podcast series, Craig and I nerd out on our love for video games which ends up taking us down a deep path of contemplating the parallels between video games and real life. We also discuss Craig's latest breathwork/meditation workshop and how we may try to derive a meaning out of the experiences from dreams, breathwork or meditation.   Enjoy!  Follow us:  Instagram - @chet_karsan @craig_seatono2  Facebook - @chet.karsan.3 @craig.seaton.3

In the 31st conversation of our podcast series, I'm joined by a special guest Ambika Kumari, a school teacher that studied her degree at the University of Cambridge. She is the wife of Darshan Pindoria, who we had as a guest on episode 29. We talk about her relationship with her husband, and how to manage a relationship when the two individuals come from different faiths. We also talk about the underlying issues with the modern day schooling system and the psychological abuse Ambika faced growing up.    Enjoy!  Follow us:   Instagram - @chet_karsan @craig_seatono2  Facebook - @chet.karsan.3 @craig.seaton.3   Ambika's social media links:  Instagram - @ambikakumarii @deeppsyc

In the thirtieth conversation of our podcast series, Craig and I sit down to discuss the negative impact we are having on our planet, referring to the recent Sir David Attenborough documentary that was released on Netflix. We relate this to anthropocentrism, where we humans have the idea that the entire universe revolves around our thoughts and needs. We also discuss our very closed understanding of identity in relation to everything around us.    Enjoy!  Follow us:   Instagram - @chet_karsan @craig_seatono2  Facebook - @chet.karsan.3 @craig.seaton.3

In the twenty-ninth conversation of our podcast series, I'm joined by my good friend Darshan Pindoria, a psychologist that trained both in the western and eastern approach. We talk about his amazing experiences as he spent a number of years going back and forth to an ashram in India, to shadow the life of monk and spend time learning from them (including his time in the Himalayas). We also discuss the differences between western and eastern psychology.    Enjoy!   Follow us:   Instagram - @chet_karsan @craig_seatono2  Facebook - @chet.karsan.3 @craig.seaton.3   Darshan Pindoria's social media links:  Instagram - @djammboy @deeppsyc  Facebook - @djammboy  Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/user/dazan4
