Garret Kramer: Non-Duality, Why Mainstream Approaches to Self-Improvement Fall Short, Who Am I?
Description
Garret Kramer is the author of True Self, The Path of No Resistance, and Stillpower. For nearly three decades, he has provided consulting services for athletes, coaches, actors, and business leaders as well as conducted workshops, daylong symposiums, and retreats for teams, organizations, and schools. Having introduced the direct path of self-exploration to the high-performance community, Garret is now sharing with global audiences his unique take on the Consciousness-only model and its implications for a more harmonious world. He lives in New Jersey with his family.
In this conversation, we explore how the understanding of non-duality shifts the approach to performance, success, and overall well-being. Diving deep into the fundamental question of "Who are you?", they discuss the limitations of traditional coaching and therapy, which often focus on feelings rather than helping individuals uncover their true selves.
I share a bit of my personal journey of shedding labels and societal expectations, opening up about how 2020 forced me to let go of external definitions and confront my core identity. Together, we question why mainstream approaches often fall short in addressing the root causes of suffering and explore the nature of emotional triggers and personal responsibility.
Garret emphasizes the distinction between feelings and identity, challenging the common belief that emotions like anxiety define who we are. They also touch on physical health, with Garret urging people to trust their intuition and resist outsourcing their well-being to so-called experts.
In a world obsessed with individual achievement, Garret and I discuss how the illusion of separateness keeps people stuck in the cycle of self-betterment and external validation. Through the lens of non-duality, we explore the path to inner peace and moral behavior, highlighting the importance of thinking for oneself in a society that often follows the herd.
Whether you’re seeking to understand yourself on a deeper level or looking to break free from societal conditioning, this episode offers powerful insights into the nature of the self, healing, and the pursuit of happiness.
