10 Breaths Back to Love with Kamal Ravikant
Episode description
Kamal Ravikant was in a dark place. After four years of pouring his heart, soul, and money into his tech startup, it blew up. He lost everything - including himself. In a moment of desperation, a vow deep within came to the surface: to love himself. Though it was a bit of a foreign concept, he set out to undo the misery in his head through the lens of love.
The practice Kamal formed became the self-published book: Love Yourself Like Your Life Depends on It. It sold over a half a million copies and is now newly expanded. In our conversation Kamal shares his ruthlessly practical way he unwound the negative thoughts and more importantly, made it last.
In our conversation we explore:
- Mindset as a practice, including the 7 minute meditation Kamal uses to break old mental patterns
- Kamal shares his advice in getting unstuck, including giving yourself time to simply live
- Our brain is a monkey gone bananas. Pain, joy, loneliness, love are a universal part of the human condition such that no matter our individual circumstance we are all trying to tame it.
- and much more…
Enjoy!
