EPISODE DETAILS:

In this episode Bryce chats with Reverend Lee Wolak
They speak about building self love through conscious living
Rev Wolak runs the Agape Center for spiritual living in Texas
This is a place that people can come to practice self discovery through meditation, affirmative prayer, affirmations, forgiveness, visualization and gratitude
Rev Wolak is thankful today because he’s getting to share the message of self love around the world
He spent 32 years as entrepreneur and business owner and then changed tack
Brought up by catholic parents and aged 15 went to seminary but didn’t get invited back
He aimed for and got the full American dream- job, kids, wife, country club etc - still felt something was missing.
At 54 left this world and got a masters in Consciousness Studies and became an assistant minister - after doing this for a while he decided that was too small and didn’t want to be a support person.
There is a big difference between being alone and lonely - when you’re lonely you’re trying to find things to fill the gap inside that cannot be filled
We all live and die alone - this can’t be changed so you need to realize that you’re enough - who are you judging yourself against?
Most people's beliefs are unconscious; they’re just bought into what parents/society etc also believe.
Everything is spiritual because this is the experience of oneness and connection through many different ways - meditation, walking in nature etc
Spirituality is the realization that we’re greater than the human body - something else there, a soul.
To accept yourself you need to come out of judgement; if you’re in judgement about anything then love can’t exist
Love languages; Lee’s are quality time, touch and acts of service and his wife’s are the same but in the reverse order
Lee starts each morning with meditation and then visualizing the day, followed by reading and walking the dog
Start to do visualization with 5 mins each day and then build up.
Start to practice meditation by sitting in a chair with your feet touching the ground, back straight, eyes closed, attention focused. Use the Sanskrit mantra word ‘Shreem’ to focus the mind.
Start with 5 mins and work up to 20 mins twice a day.
