Description

Expand your perception of experience and build more flow and joy into your daily life.


Many people hate time, it is a constant enemy we fight against. Yet it is simply a continuous element of the Universe that we can't change.

However, like illusions that can make a straight line seem bent in our minds, we can use our own mind to bend time for ourselves.


This episode expands on several psychological phenomena to help you build a better relationship with time:


  • Live a life that feels longer, richer and deeper

  • Reframe feelings of anxiety

  • Build your ability to focus, be productive, and do your best work


It's an absolute favourite topic of Sam's and an episode he is sure you'll love.
