11:00 You are stating completely that emotions are not valid. That is a dangerous and wrong statement. How does someone know LOVE if they ignore their emotions? It's not about turning off emotions. It's not about devaluing emotions. It's about learning with your emotions, and each person is different and so is their spectrum of emotions and you will never be able to write a book that "fixes" everyone's problems for them, nor will you ever be able to make a prescription medicine to "fix" their problems. I wish psychiatrists would understand this more. You're all looking creepy when you're trying to teach people to basically be mentally UNHEALTHY.

The idea is not to kick someone when they are down. Benzos are fucked up and Jordan should have massive amounts of empathy for addicts because their struggles mirror his but he doesn't. He still exists in his shame bound persona. He is shameless because he is shameful. He needs to feel his shame in order to recognize his ego/false persona. Call it a moral grey area but humanity needs to awaken to its shame in a big way so they can be human. Where does war come from?
@@HalfJapMarineare you implying and/or making the assertion that war comes as a result of (unrecognized / disowned) shame?

This has been a great eye opener of a podcast. My wife passed away at the height of the pandemic and seeking any help was really difficult. We were both 32 at the time and I had never really experienced loss or trauma before. I tried grief shares, therapy, and in the end the only thing that seemed to help was exercise. Grief is a very difficult reality. I wish I understood just how much It pulls mental, emotional, and physical resources from you. The term “Grief Brain” is a very real side effect. The tiredness you experience from the emotional rollercoaster. The constant effort to be present and not miles away in grief laden thoughts. The immediate burnout that sets in from the whirlwind of life events just experienced. Just hearing or reading this small paragraph would of helped me SO MUCH in understanding the monster that grief really is and the fallout it creates. I know men don't like to share or open up, trust me, as a young widower, its really really difficult to find anyone to relate too. If your going through something, people do care, your not alone, and love is really the only way out of your circumstances. Love for yourself, gratitude, and patience. Great work Chris and Healthy Gamer!
I’m so glad I deleted social media after high school, can’t even imagine how stuck some people are. Life so much simpler when you just live life and just do your best with what you got. No one can take that away from you
Real question: what do you do for your news? I won’t watch any MSM because they all have agendas and put crazy spin on everything, I just want facts. I have found independent journalists in the past that were decent sources for the most part, but it requires staying connected to social media and I really want to break away completely.
@@skadi6750apples and oranges. There's a difference between feeling embarrassment for your own behavior being called out, and feeling disgust and hatred for evil rhetoric.
This is one of the best mental health podcast I’ve ever listened to. Gonna have to listen again and again because there’s just so much gold I need to let sink in and apply
Dr. K's insights on the impact of technology on our brains are spot on. A lesser-known tactic to combat the negative effects is to schedule "tech-free zones" in your day, where you intentionally avoid screens and stimulate your mind with activities like reading or engaging in face-to-face conversations. This can significantly improve focus and mental well-being.
We did no tech Sunday for the whole family yesterday. It was tough but good for everyone. Going to continue it. I think it helps to figure out when you default to tech/screens and why.
As an Indian I feel proud and sad at the same time , why sad ? Because our heritage has so much practical knowledge and despite of that our education system is so colonised that we don't even hear of these things let alone studing about then And obviously i feel proud they my country has such rich heritage to solve modern issues. This is one of the best content pieces I have seen on RUclips .
I scrolled through the comment section for such a comment. Thank you for sharing! Even though I’m from Europe, I felt the same mixed feelings you are describing. So much conscious living has been lost due to the ego revolution in the west.
As an Indian, I want to say it is not just Indian culture that is being eroded(Frankly speaking Hindutva has helped retain some culture in India). But it is traditionalism throughout the world that is in decline. Be it Europe, US, even the middle East and of course ASEAN and East Asia. Nietzsche was right.
I think it's best to feel proud because there's someone now teaching about it, we can learn as well and apply to our lives and help out others as much we can
"Now I am dissolved Ego, the Taker of Shits." In all seriousness, it pleases both heart and mind to see two Chads of improvement and aiming upward, join together to have a sublime conversation. Looking forward to more collaboration and overlap in the future.
Litterally, just today, I had a conversation about children being taught meditation. As a 53 yr old with A.d.h.d. that has never had a quiet moment of thought. Both breathwork and meditation are giving me some peace . The sad part of a lot of keeping yourself healthy is free, and we have a healthcare system meant to keep you sick for profit.. I've told so many people about the show.. Thx Chris .
@@cwg9238 lol what? He's simply searchable by this name. Real name is Alok Kanojia, if that helps you, and his RUclips channel is @HealthyGamerGG, with the official licensed doctor thang under every video
I really needed to hear this. I went back to using Twitter in 2020 when the UK 🇬🇧 was in lockdown. It self-soothed me as I was also caring for my Mother who had Alzheimers. I realised I was getting addicted to my phone by 2021. It wasn't until Jan 2022 when I deleted my Twitter account, a month after my mother had died. I only watch certain RUclips channels nowadays that I consider informative like Chris's channel, Jordan Peterson and some Christian channels. You guys are great. Thank you.
I know you know this, but aren't missing anything, I was on Twitter yesterday and it's so depressing, people complaining, nothing's changed. You're so much better off. I need to find the courage to delete it.
I have a challenge for everyone reading this: Try a kind of trataka but the thing you are staring at is your turned of phone lying before you and hold it as long as you can. Watch your impulses go wild. (At least for me it was pretty crazy)
What a great episode! As someone who has had my first therapy session being a couples therapy session, with a female therapist, I can call myself lucky that she was extremely empathetic about how both my wife and I would be communicating and always making sure our points were mutually understood without giving any sort of judgement. What I especially liked was her ability to "translate" what we said and how we said it into what the other person needed to hear or even see. But to Dr K's point, we had spoken to 2 other couples therapists before that we had to pass on as it just didn't feel right. I only wish we had done it sooner (we are all good, but as Dr. K said, I was first against it as I thought we could handle it without the help of a therapist)... Fascinating stuff and I can only encourage more people to go into couples therapy!
Dissolving the ego is a herculean task. Start with knowing that the ego is your tether to this world/reality. You need it in order to continue existing. It is a symbiotic relationship that sometimes gets out of balance af.
40:08 Dr. K in Indian accent: "you can't focus? Don't worry, I'll teach you practice. Laugh, I teach you to focus. Don't feel the cancellation" 😂 a mind blowingly down to earth authentic bullseye conversation. So happy to see and hear this collision as of my favourite 2 channels on RUclips! Especially resonating with the "trauma" & "manta" analogy Dr. K alluded to on secrecy - keep what feels good inside, & speak on what does not feel good on the inside. Love you two to bits ever so much ❤
I've loved Dr. K for years and this is one of the best podcasts I can remember. Keep killing it Chris, Modern Wisdom is truly becoming one of the premiere podcasts on Earth.
“All you can do is action, you cannot achieve any result” That comes from the bhagavad gita - “You have the right to work only but never to its fruits. Let not the fruits of action be your motive, nor let your attachment be to inaction.”
Wow this is the best podcast I have ever watched about Psychology, Mental health and technology. Absolute master piece. Please do more collabs in the future like these!
Yesterday I was at the store and I got sad and pissed all in one because some POS put a rotisserie chicken on a regular shelf, letting it go bad. It upset me that a whole chicken was killed and some turd thought it ok to just waste this good food. I took it to the front and then later was mad at myself that I didn't just buy it and feed it to my dogs. I realize my emotions are too much, because they linger, at the same time, I don't want to be so detached that I don't give a damn about consideration and human kindnesses and most importantly GRATEFULNESS. I definitely needed this episode 😅😅
Would be a good idea to not feed that to your dogs those rotisserie chickens have a bunch of salt and other added ingredients that aren't good for dogs. If you do give your dogs chicken or meat it's best to cook it without any seasoning just trying to be helpful 👍
Conscientiousness is a blessing and a curse. You seem like a kind soul, hope you find a balance between caring enough to do something and being wise enough to know your own limitations
"It is never *THE ISSUE(the chicken)* that is your issue, *YOUR ISSUE(the anger)* is how you react and respond to the issue." - A course in Miracles Your issue is your anger, case in point; your usage of words like "some POS" , "some turd", "mad at myself" in the present tense illustrate that the anger is still with you and l bet it always has been before the chicken issue. I believe it was Jung who said our subconscious mind holds all our unresolved baggage which it tries to bring into our conscious mind to be resolved; and that one way it does this is through conflict (internal & external). The chicken scenario could very well be the conflict your subconscious self used to bring your anger issues to the surface of your conscious mind so that you could address them with a smaller conflict before/instead of a bigger conflict. Objectively nothing really gets wasted in this world because energy is never lost, it merely changes form. Thus, the chicken wasn't objectively a waste of "good food" because as biological organisms decompose, they become "good food" to other organisms and useful manure to the earth... When you look at the idea of "waste" in this way, you begin to see that your anger wasn't even rational in the grand scheme of reality/nature. If you address & resolve the internal anger directly, external situations won't trigger what is not there(in you). If you don't address it, it will colour ALL your experiences, big and small... Food for thought
@@andreaspapakanellou3804 Bare in mind that conscientiousness could very well be a dressed up form of Control. The human ego often dresses up its need for/coping mechanism of control in positive & palatable terminology... What's the litmus test for this? It's fear, for wherever the ego seeks to control, there is always fear (which can manifest/be expressed in the form of anger).
Shut off my emotions for years as a coping mechanism, and honestly it makes life so much worse later on. Early on its so useful and amazing, no more emotional pain? No more sadness? Sign me up! Problem is eventually they come back, and its not like flipping a switch on; its like the emotional Dam you built exploded and had a catastrophic failure. As a result the city of "good" emotions and things you enjoy or dont feel bothered by gets destroyed. Suddenly youre an adult now and the lack of shame and guilt has led you to a place where its very hard to get out, and now you ARE feeling the shame and guilt and things that make you feel that way are all around you.
What a great conversation. Can’t wait to read the book- I have a 15 year old gaming son and am thrilled to have something aimed for parenting young men with Dr K’s insights.
What an outstanding podcast. Every time I see Dr.K I learn so much about myself and I'm provided with new tools to better my life. Chris, thank you for being an excellent speaker and interviewer. Your conversational skills and honesty during the podcast makes it that much better.
Spirituality-framed- approaches blended with straightforward, empirically-driven, common-sensibilities aimed at objective truthfulness offers a strong foundation to build upon.
Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Australia. Really need!
Yes, dr.larks I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
Dr K is a brilliant person ! So loved that he recognized your brilliance as well, Chris ! I will listen to this again. The amount of information was huge ! Thankyou
Dr. K and the Platform of Chris ist just the perfekt match . the high lvl of his knowlege matches perfectly with chris high lvl of leading an conversation and asking the right stuff.. completing the thoughts.
the part about men being socialized to not be very “emotional” (except for anger) is so true. i assume that is because anger is seen as an emotion that portrays (on a surface level) strength, power, and aggressiveness, unlike the “female” emotions that many of us associate with vulnerability, weakness, and dependence. this made me realize that perhaps a lot of men turn their sadness, shame, insecurity, etc. into anger since it’s the only emotion that has been accepted and expected for men to express for so long. the other emotions get suppressed, but they have to be released somehow, so they’re released as anger.
100%. The part on the red pill stuff was so spot on. To me it's men with serious, unresolved trauma. Men need to be told it's okay to feel things and process them.
Just 10 minutes in and I had to pause the video to say this: Chris, this is a WORLD-CLASS production. Thank you for continually investing in mastering your craft. Your viewers appreciate it far beyond words can explain
Bro i normally watch or listen to your podcast on my phone, but for this i literally went and open my laptop and put headphones on just to appreciate your hard work Keep it up brother!!!!!!!!!!
For the first time in a long time, I felt that a podcast episode was truly insightful and helpful. Deepest gratitude to Dr. K for synthesizing his clinical experience with Indian philosophy. And sincere thanks to Modern Wisdom for hosting him!

@@myself2noone I'm not going to get into my personal stuff, but I know it's true. I'm in a program specifically for fixing it and I've recovered 90%. I'm not talking about ignoring my emotions a little bit. I'm talking about half my life.
We could solve so much human suffering and so many societal issues if we had more health professionals and supporing staff with the mindset and evidence-based experience as Dr. K. Chris did a fantastic job making the jumps and connections following along!
This podcast has actually changed my perspective on life. It’s very easy to say such things without visual and physical evidence of said change. But I cannot be anymore honest in my opinion. What Doc was saying about change in regards to technology cannot be anymore true to my experience in life. I have used RUclips as an outlet to express emotional trauma without the human experience of digesting these emotions. This past year I have recognized this and began to take steps to resolve some of these issues. I have stopped smoking cannabis (weed) and began to start to notice the clarity in my mind. I no longer act out irrationally but I have been quiet and understanding. I feel MORE human than I have before, now, I am still struggling to put down my phone. But it safe to say that in the midst of company I no longer care for outside attention or distractions. I have been more present, pleasant and understanding than I have been in the past 3 years. And as I write this I’m crying because I never thought I could write or speak so fluently because of my constant self medication. If there is anything to remember about us as a species, we are self healing and love vacillating beings with no boundaries or barriers. Que Dios te bendiga mi gente❤
55:00 This is fantastic. I have been through at least two therapists, and the work was always circular. I never got any kind of *solution*. No understanding of WHAT I was dealing with. I watched ONE Dr. K seminar on C-PTSD: *"This is your Brain on Trauma."* IT CLICKED. ALL OF IT. I've started digging into the depths of it. I'm still working on dealing with some things, but this is the farthest I have gotten in the last two years.
This conversation acted as 6 months of therapy. It came out at such a perfect time in my and I’m sure so many people’s lives. The Solar eclipse day. We’re bringing in more light 🫶 and mental fortitude
This was a great podcast. I know we’re not all doctors, but one time I read a Reddit post about a doctors being asked about how he handles the death of patients and he said “there are people who will live no matter what and there are people who will die no matter what and there’s nothing you can do to change that” so it was nice to see Dr. K break that downs in a way that we all can apply that to ourselves.
Thanks both, probably one of the best Podcasts I’ve ever watched. I love how CW talks about the blend of “East” and “Western” philosophies on the matter, since Dr K can resonate with both it’s a great position to be able to share from.
The production value on this podcast is on another level. Love the background visuals, lighting, audio quality and obviously the content itself - all AAA+ stuff. Keep it up, Chris!
Haha omg I had to laugh out loud so hard : "I will teach you practice" 🤣🤣🤣 amazing episode overal! So many great Insights, whilst also having a good laugh here and there
@@tonegooberno i don’t think so, if you pay close attention to the point he is making, the issue is the fact that your mind is drifted externally , towards a screen is the number 1 case nowadays , we have to actually get rid out of distractions from time to time to allow our mind to drift and evolve freely, even music is a distraction that prevent us from thinking
it raises an essential point about the dual-edged sword of technology. It's crucial to find a balance where technology serves as a tool to enhance productivity and connection, rather than a crutch that dulls our emotional intelligence and motivation. 🧠
So happy you had Dr. K on. He is not only amazingly insightful and smart, but one can tell he has thought deeply about these subjects. I love how he brings ancient wisdom in. One of your best guests ever!
My wish is that formal education would evolve to include topics and discussions such as the ones shared on this episode. It was the perfect balance of intellectual, emotional and spiritual wisdom to spark curiosity and give us hope that we are not broken as a species. Understanding ourselves is key to compassion…and we so desperately need it at the moment. Thank you gentlemen for your beautiful display of modern manhood.

Chris, your killing it. What a podcast. I remember starting a podcast at the same time as you and seeing you with like few thousand view. You continued , I didn’t, and now look where you are… I’ve taken this with me into my business now, and I’ll never stop, I’ll never quit, because I know I never tapped into my potential because I stopped. That’s changed my life, and I’m always routing for you and what you represent to me. Wishing you continued growth and abundance mate, and I’ll see you at the top.
It takes more than just genius to revolutionize the world; it takes a trait that only leaders possess to bring something new to life. I'm telling you with certainty that the entire podcast space will tap into this in the nearest future, all thanks to you for this contribution. See you soon my future friend.
Thank you for an amazing podcast. Chris you an incredible interviewer and truth seeker. Thank you for introducing me to Dr K. Your discussion about your emotional state and the pressure that RUclipsrs have encouraged me, a 76 year old man with lots of life scars, to say, "you are making for a better world". I benefit for the great guests you have on. 2 million deserves a celebration.
Dr. K and Sam Harris are the two Intellectuals in public sphere whom I respect immensly for they have arrived at the realization of a lifetime, the discovery of selflessness and thier efforts to spread the Truth.
Thanks, Chris for this profound episode. I am grateful for Dr. K sharing his wisdom and compassion with us. The less I focus on how other people perceive me and the more I focus on acting with integrity, doing the best I can and let the rest take care of itself, I feel free and content.

'' Whatever you want to cultivate within you, keep within yourself '' Dr. K, Amazing !
If there was only one takeaway, this is the one
I frankly dont get it. So like, dont share? Dont talk about yourself or what you want to do? I feel like this is casting too broad of a net.
Talking about doing something can sometimes feel like you've actually done it, but to truly cultivate that sense of accomplishment, just take action!

Real question: what do you do for your news? I won’t watch any MSM because they all have agendas and put crazy spin on everything, I just want facts. I have found independent journalists in the past that were decent sources for the most part, but it requires staying connected to social media and I really want to break away completely.
Exactly
I'm right there with you brother
RUclips is social media, look at us right now, being social, together online.. lol just FYI

Yes that was eye opening.
This is one of the best mental health podcast I’ve ever listened to. Gonna have to listen again and again because there’s just so much gold I need to let sink in and apply
“No no .. don’t feel the cancellations just breeaaath” Dr k always makes me ball out laughing man 😂
It was amazing and hilarious 😂
Don’t fear*
Timestamp?
Dr. K's insights on the impact of technology on our brains are spot on. A lesser-known tactic to combat the negative effects is to schedule "tech-free zones" in your day, where you intentionally avoid screens and stimulate your mind with activities like reading or engaging in face-to-face conversations. This can significantly improve focus and mental well-being.
We did no tech Sunday for the whole family yesterday. It was tough but good for everyone. Going to continue it. I think it helps to figure out when you default to tech/screens and why.
It got so bad for my husband that he started watching Ring videos bc he so needed to watch TV/youtube at night to wind down lol.

As an Indian I feel proud and sad at the same time , why sad ?
Because our heritage has so much practical knowledge and despite of that our education system is so colonised that we don't even hear of these things let alone studing about then
And obviously i feel proud they my country has such rich heritage to solve modern issues.
This is one of the best content pieces I have seen on RUclips .
I scrolled through the comment section for such a comment. Thank you for sharing! Even though I’m from Europe, I felt the same mixed feelings you are describing. So much conscious living has been lost due to the ego revolution in the west.
As an Indian, I want to say it is not just Indian culture that is being eroded(Frankly speaking Hindutva has helped retain some culture in India).
But it is traditionalism throughout the world that is in decline. Be it Europe, US, even the middle East and of course ASEAN and East Asia.
Nietzsche was right.
I think it's best to feel proud because there's someone now teaching about it, we can learn as well and apply to our lives and help out others as much we can
Plenty of sage advice in the Vedic sutras and Ayruveda.
This is something I feel sad about and definitely try to spend a small time every day to educate myself on my ancient roots
"Now I am dissolved Ego, the Taker of Shits."
In all seriousness, it pleases both heart and mind to see two Chads of improvement and aiming upward, join together to have a sublime conversation.
Looking forward to more collaboration and overlap in the future.

I really needed to hear this. I went back to using Twitter in 2020 when the UK 🇬🇧 was in lockdown. It self-soothed me as I was also caring for my Mother who had Alzheimers. I realised I was getting addicted to my phone by 2021. It wasn't until Jan 2022 when I deleted my Twitter account, a month after my mother had died. I only watch certain RUclips channels nowadays that I consider informative like Chris's channel, Jordan Peterson and some Christian channels. You guys are great. Thank you.
I know you know this, but aren't missing anything, I was on Twitter yesterday and it's so depressing, people complaining, nothing's changed. You're so much better off. I need to find the courage to delete it.

YES! I could listen to you talk to Dr K for weeks. Please have him on as many times as you can think of questions to ask him. This is wonderful.

What a great episode! As someone who has had my first therapy session being a couples therapy session, with a female therapist, I can call myself lucky that she was extremely empathetic about how both my wife and I would be communicating and always making sure our points were mutually understood without giving any sort of judgement. What I especially liked was her ability to "translate" what we said and how we said it into what the other person needed to hear or even see. But to Dr K's point, we had spoken to 2 other couples therapists before that we had to pass on as it just didn't feel right. I only wish we had done it sooner (we are all good, but as Dr. K said, I was first against it as I thought we could handle it without the help of a therapist)... Fascinating stuff and I can only encourage more people to go into couples therapy!
Dissolving the ego is a herculean task. Start with knowing that the ego is your tether to this world/reality. You need it in order to continue existing. It is a symbiotic relationship that sometimes gets out of balance af.
Love the BTS of the screen and the room and everything! And love Dr. K back on!! Amazing work, Chris. Amazing.
BTS?
@@shoutatthesky Behind the scenes
40:08 Dr. K in Indian accent: "you can't focus? Don't worry, I'll teach you practice. Laugh, I teach you to focus. Don't feel the cancellation" 😂 a mind blowingly down to earth authentic bullseye conversation. So happy to see and hear this collision as of my favourite 2 channels on RUclips! Especially resonating with the "trauma" & "manta" analogy Dr. K alluded to on secrecy - keep what feels good inside, & speak on what does not feel good on the inside. Love you two to bits ever so much ❤
I've loved Dr. K for years and this is one of the best podcasts I can remember. Keep killing it Chris, Modern Wisdom is truly becoming one of the premiere podcasts on Earth.
“All you can do is action, you cannot achieve any result”
That comes from the bhagavad gita -

Wow this is the best podcast I have ever watched about Psychology, Mental health and technology. Absolute master piece. Please do more collabs in the future like these!
Such a good episode! That part about hypotheticals activating negative emotions but not the dopaminergic system…🤯
Yesterday I was at the store and I got sad and pissed all in one because some POS put a rotisserie chicken on a regular shelf, letting it go bad. It upset me that a whole chicken was killed and some turd thought it ok to just waste this good food. I took it to the front and then later was mad at myself that I didn't just buy it and feed it to my dogs. I realize my emotions are too much, because they linger, at the same time, I don't want to be so detached that I don't give a damn about consideration and human kindnesses and most importantly GRATEFULNESS. I definitely needed this episode 😅😅
Would be a good idea to not feed that to your dogs those rotisserie chickens have a bunch of salt and other added ingredients that aren't good for dogs.
If you do give your dogs chicken or meat it's best to cook it without any seasoning just trying to be helpful 👍
Conscientiousness is a blessing and a curse. You seem like a kind soul, hope you find a balance between caring enough to do something and being wise enough to know your own limitations
"It is never *THE ISSUE(the chicken)* that is your issue, *YOUR ISSUE(the anger)* is how you react and respond to the issue." - A course in Miracles
Your issue is your anger, case in point; your usage of words like "some POS" , "some turd", "mad at myself" in the present tense illustrate that the anger is still with you and l bet it always has been before the chicken issue. I believe it was Jung who said our subconscious mind holds all our unresolved baggage which it tries to bring into our conscious mind to be resolved; and that one way it does this is through conflict (internal & external). The chicken scenario could very well be the conflict your subconscious self used to bring your anger issues to the surface of your conscious mind so that you could address them with a smaller conflict before/instead of a bigger conflict.
Objectively nothing really gets wasted in this world because energy is never lost, it merely changes form. Thus, the chicken wasn't objectively a waste of "good food" because as biological organisms decompose, they become "good food" to other organisms and useful manure to the earth... When you look at the idea of "waste" in this way, you begin to see that your anger wasn't even rational in the grand scheme of reality/nature. If you address & resolve the internal anger directly, external situations won't trigger what is not there(in you). If you don't address it, it will colour ALL your experiences, big and small... Food for thought
@@andreaspapakanellou3804 Bare in mind that conscientiousness could very well be a dressed up form of Control. The human ego often dresses up its need for/coping mechanism of control in positive & palatable terminology... What's the litmus test for this? It's fear, for wherever the ego seeks to control, there is always fear (which can manifest/be expressed in the form of anger).
@@MylezNevisonsheesh,so how do you directly face those emotions, those problems?. Do you go in a room, try to remember , what exactly do you do?
Shut off my emotions for years as a coping mechanism, and honestly it makes life so much worse later on. Early on its so useful and amazing, no more emotional pain? No more sadness? Sign me up!
Problem is eventually they come back, and its not like flipping a switch on; its like the emotional Dam you built exploded and had a catastrophic failure. As a result the city of "good" emotions and things you enjoy or dont feel bothered by gets destroyed. Suddenly youre an adult now and the lack of shame and guilt has led you to a place where its very hard to get out, and now you ARE feeling the shame and guilt and things that make you feel that way are all around you.
What a great conversation. Can’t wait to read the book- I have a 15 year old gaming son and am thrilled to have something aimed for parenting young men with Dr K’s insights.
What an outstanding podcast. Every time I see Dr.K I learn so much about myself and I'm provided with new tools to better my life. Chris, thank you for being an excellent speaker and interviewer. Your conversational skills and honesty during the podcast makes it that much better.
Spirituality-framed- approaches blended with straightforward, empirically-driven, common-sensibilities aimed at objective truthfulness offers a strong foundation to build upon.
Congrats for getting in early to interview Dr K. He's a rare diamond on social media. 100% valuable content from this legend
Never before have I felt so seen while at the same time given the knowledge and tools to free myself. Thank you for this infinitely valuable episode
This episode was wild. Properly one of the best ever, the ego death part that hit hard.
Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.

Yes, dr.larks I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.

Dr K is a brilliant person ! So loved that he recognized your brilliance as well, Chris ! I will listen to this again. The amount of information was huge ! Thankyou
This was one of the most impactful conversations I’ve ever heard. Thank you both.
Dr. K and the Platform of Chris ist just the perfekt match . the high lvl of his knowlege matches perfectly with chris high lvl of leading an conversation and asking the right stuff.. completing the thoughts.
the part about men being socialized to not be very “emotional” (except for anger) is so true. i assume that is because anger is seen as an emotion that portrays (on a surface level) strength, power, and aggressiveness, unlike the “female” emotions that many of us associate with vulnerability, weakness, and dependence. this made me realize that perhaps a lot of men turn their sadness, shame, insecurity, etc. into anger since it’s the only emotion that has been accepted and expected for men to express for so long. the other emotions get suppressed, but they have to be released somehow, so they’re released as anger.
100%. The part on the red pill stuff was so spot on. To me it's men with serious, unresolved trauma. Men need to be told it's okay to feel things and process them.
We can also let I out as aggression in a healthy way such as exercise.
Just 10 minutes in and I had to pause the video to say this: Chris, this is a WORLD-CLASS production. Thank you for continually investing in mastering your craft. Your viewers appreciate it far beyond words can explain
Bro i normally watch or listen to your podcast on my phone, but for this i literally went and open my laptop and put headphones on just to appreciate your hard work Keep it up brother!!!!!!!!!!
I was listening to this at work, but I want to relisten to take notes. This was a good discussion/interview.
40:00 ABSOLUTE GOLD. Dr. K is both serious AND knows when to be comedic
He is a master communicator. He has thousands of hours on his channel, check it out
@@morganseppy5180 I have already.
For the first time in a long time, I felt that a podcast episode was truly insightful and helpful. Deepest gratitude to Dr. K for synthesizing his clinical experience with Indian philosophy. And sincere thanks to Modern Wisdom for hosting him!

This might be my favorite episode you’ve ever done. And not because of the dope screen. Great conversation dude, thank you.
Two of my favourite role models having a conversation. Thank you for making this happen!
We could solve so much human suffering and so many societal issues if we had more health professionals and supporing staff with the mindset and evidence-based experience as Dr. K.
Chris did a fantastic job making the jumps and connections following along!
This podcast has actually changed my perspective on life. It’s very easy to say such things without visual and physical evidence of said change. But I cannot be anymore honest in my opinion. What Doc was saying about change in regards to technology cannot be anymore true to my experience in life. I have used RUclips as an outlet to express emotional trauma without the human experience of digesting these emotions. This past year I have recognized this and began to take steps to resolve some of these issues. I have stopped smoking cannabis (weed) and began to start to notice the clarity in my mind. I no longer act out irrationally but I have been quiet and understanding. I feel MORE human than I have before, now, I am still struggling to put down my phone. But it safe to say that in the midst of company I no longer care for outside attention or distractions. I have been more present, pleasant and understanding than I have been in the past 3 years. And as I write this I’m crying because I never thought I could write or speak so fluently because of my constant self medication. If there is anything to remember about us as a species, we are self healing and love vacillating beings with no boundaries or barriers.
Que Dios te bendiga mi gente❤
55:00 This is fantastic. I have been through at least two therapists, and the work was always circular. I never got any kind of *solution*. No understanding of WHAT I was dealing with.
I watched ONE Dr. K seminar on C-PTSD: *"This is your Brain on Trauma."* IT CLICKED. ALL OF IT. I've started digging into the depths of it. I'm still working on dealing with some things, but this is the farthest I have gotten in the last two years.
This conversation acted as 6 months of therapy. It came out at such a perfect time in my and I’m sure so many people’s lives. The Solar eclipse day. We’re bringing in more light 🫶 and mental fortitude
This was a great podcast. I know we’re not all doctors, but one time I read a Reddit post about a doctors being asked about how he handles the death of patients and he said “there are people who will live no matter what and there are people who will die no matter what and there’s nothing you can do to change that” so it was nice to see Dr. K break that downs in a way that we all can apply that to ourselves.
Dr K absolutely has one of the best perspectives & approaches when it comes to mental health & habits. He’s one of the best!

Bravo, what a great conversation and so needed in this day & age . Thank you Chris Williamson for bringing this guest. 🇫🇷🇺🇸
Thanks both, probably one of the best Podcasts I’ve ever watched.
I love how CW talks about the blend of “East” and “Western” philosophies on the matter, since Dr K can resonate with both it’s a great position to be able to share from.
Straight into the deep end with this episode. Loved the "No intro".
The production value on this podcast is on another level. Love the background visuals, lighting, audio quality and obviously the content itself - all AAA+ stuff. Keep it up, Chris!
Haha omg I had to laugh out loud so hard : "I will teach you practice" 🤣🤣🤣 amazing episode overal! So many great Insights, whilst also having a good laugh here and there
I've listened to hundreds of podcasts rarely do I smile as big as I was when Dr. K kept going with the accent. Loved so much in this, thank you both.
Love that the "slow down on the screens" guy is on the first episode with a giant screen as the background. 💪
Lol, but in seriousness I think it’s more about what’s on the screens 🧐
@@tonegooberno i don’t think so, if you pay close attention to the point he is making, the issue is the fact that your mind is drifted externally , towards a screen is the number 1 case nowadays , we have to actually get rid out of distractions from time to time to allow our mind to drift and evolve freely, even music is a distraction that prevent us from thinking
The last twenty minutes were exceptionally good. I’ve listened to the last portion 3x now
it raises an essential point about the dual-edged sword of technology. It's crucial to find a balance where technology serves as a tool to enhance productivity and connection, rather than a crutch that dulls our emotional intelligence and motivation. 🧠
Dr. K! He's back! All hail the light giver!
All hail K! All hail K!
Oh, Dr K can you see, by the dawn's early light....
ALL HAIL K!
So happy you had Dr. K on. He is not only amazingly insightful and smart, but one can tell he has thought deeply about these subjects. I love how he brings ancient wisdom in. One of your best guests ever!
My wish is that formal education would evolve to include topics and discussions such as the ones shared on this episode. It was the perfect balance of intellectual, emotional and spiritual wisdom to spark curiosity and give us hope that we are not broken as a species. Understanding ourselves is key to compassion…and we so desperately need it at the moment.
Thank you gentlemen for your beautiful display of modern manhood.
Thank you for this nuanced and thoughtful interview. We need more people to think at this level, who have these platforms.
Crazy. Absolutely mad. I love it so much. Keep it up, Chris.
This is gold. Thank you both for such a wonderful, insightful conversation.
This episode is absolute fire!
Thank you for going above and beyond for this episode Chris 🙏🏻

Is this the first? I've seen similar on another podcast at least two years ago.
Chris, your killing it. What a podcast. I remember starting a podcast at the same time as you and seeing you with like few thousand view. You continued , I didn’t, and now look where you are… I’ve taken this with me into my business now, and I’ll never stop, I’ll never quit, because I know I never tapped into my potential because I stopped.

Modern Wisdom Cinema is BEAUTIFUL! This production is so artfully crafted, I can't believe it. And Dr. K is a GREAT guest choice too.
It takes more than just genius to revolutionize the world; it takes a trait that only leaders possess to bring something new to life. I'm telling you with certainty that the entire podcast space will tap into this in the nearest future, all thanks to you for this contribution.
See you soon my future friend.
Thank you for an amazing podcast. Chris you an incredible interviewer and truth seeker. Thank you for introducing me to Dr K. Your discussion about your emotional state and the pressure that RUclipsrs have encouraged me, a 76 year old man with lots of life scars, to say, "you are making for a better world". I benefit for the great guests you have on. 2 million deserves a celebration.
Dr. K and Sam Harris are the two Intellectuals in public sphere whom I respect immensly for they have arrived at the realization of a lifetime, the discovery of selflessness and thier efforts to spread the Truth.
Thanks, Chris for this profound episode. I am grateful for Dr. K sharing his wisdom and compassion with us. The less I focus on how other people perceive me and the more I focus on acting with integrity, doing the best I can and let the rest take care of itself, I feel free and content.
The set/screens are visually GORGEOUS. Dr K is the perfect guest - and when coupled with your brilliant questions, unbeatable. Modern Wisdom indeed 💚
