TRANSCRIPT

Dive deep with Dr. Madisen Harper as she blends cutting-edge insights from neuroscience, psychology, and quantum physics with practical wisdom.

[00:00:01]

Hey, everyone. Welcome back to the Reality Alchemist™ podcast. In this episode, we’re going to discover the secrets to achieving a more balanced professional and personal life. Everyone from Oprah to Google employees are doing it. In fact, Oprah claims it makes her 1000% better. Can you guess what it is? Welcome to Reality Alchemist™, where we smash life solutions and co-create an abundance of self, health, wealth, and vitality. We’ll explore practical solutions to renew your mind, unlock your potential, and level up your life. Hey, everyone.

 

[00:00:49]

It’s Madisen. So, did you guess what practices Oprah and Google employees have in common to overcome workplace stress? It’s mindfulness. And if you listen to the end, I’m going to give you a free mindfulness technique that will soothe your stress and reinvigorate your senses. What exactly is mindfulness? Mindfulness is actually a state of active attention on what you’re sensing and feeling right here, right now without interpretation and judgment. You may not be overly familiar with the concept of mindfulness, but I can guarantee you’re well acquainted with its flip side: distractedness, inattention, and lack of engagement. I’m sometimes wary of using the word mindfulness because I actually believe we have to surpass the mind because we can’t really solve the challenges with the same mechanism that created them, which is often our mind. Know that when we’re thinking mindfulness from my perspective, we want to go beyond the mind and enter into that more vast quantum energy.

 

[00:02:04]

What do I mean by that? That energy that is so expansive, full of potential, you’ve probably had glimpses into it. We want to live more in that state, and to me, that’s what this practice is all about. And that’s why I’m also committed to you to creating a practice of mindfulness at the end of each session that you can listen to whenever you want. In episode 1, I did mention I was going to share 2 tools that are in everybody’s toolbox when it comes to feeling fulfilled, happy, expanded, and successful in life, and this is tool number 1. I did mention also that these two practices were a little bit challenging to me. I’m one of these people that says, I don’t have time to meditate, but here’s what I’ve discovered, I don’t not have time to meditate. Because when I do, I set myself up for such a strong, profound foundation for the day as that everything flows. I don’t know about you, but when I used to get up in the morning, it was like Own your marks.

 

[00:03:11]

Get set. The starting gun goes off, and my heart would be racing, and I’d be literally getting to race through the day. That is no way to live. It affected my adrenals. It affected my energy levels. And you know what? I had no inspiration because when your mind is so full, there is no room for inspiration. I began to practice mindfulness and I practice what I preach. I’ve got an accountability partner.

 

[00:03:46]

Shout out to Nadia. She is my accountability partner for both these two success elements. And the other one I’ll be talking about next week, so I’ll keep you in suspense around that. But in terms of mindfulness, we actually committed that we would do a meditation of some sort a day. Could be 5 minutes, 10 minutes, whatever an hour, it doesn’t matter. It was just the commitment to ourselves. And here is what I discovered from doing this practice. When I allowed myself to stop, and it could be a guided meditation, or sometimes I would just sit and do what I call a quantum q and a, and I will give you a link in the show notes to that at Madisenharper.comforward/alchemist on how I do this quantum q and a.

 

[00:04:28]

It’s basically getting answers to what’s making me feel stuck right here and now, and I get all these profound answers that I know have not come from my head because, in reality, my brain is not that smart. That has been a huge benefit of just staying quiet and listening to my inner guidance system. I actually call it the inner guru. The other aspect is that, oh my gosh, it allows space for inspiration to come through. Imagine your mind is like a page, and it is chockablock full of all those thoughts. Remember, last episode, we said that we had 12,000 to 60000 thoughts a day. Imagine all those on the page. Where do you think you’re going to get additional inspiration or, flow or insight when there’s that much gunk on the page.

 

[00:05:14]

So even for 5, 10, 15 minutes, it’s worth it. Now, I’d like to link mindfulness practices to the 3 pillars that I spoke about in my framework, the clarity, the confidence, and the courage. Mindfulness is a really great tool at getting clear about our desires and who we are as human beings. I truly believe, we all have this magnificent inner guru within us that has the answer to all our questions, bypasses that strong firm conscious mind and gets down to the subconscious where we are omnipotent in many ways. In terms of clarity, you can always sit and ask yourself why something is bothering you, an answer to a question that you’re trying to seek the answer for, a new idea. And sometimes, it’s just as simple as sitting and saying, why do I feel like this? And just waiting for a response. Now, a lot of time people will say to me, oh, did I make that up? What I find is the responses, if you allow them to flow, are very poetic and you’re thinking, wow, that’s kind of magic. If, however, you get a response that feels negative or worrisome or fear, that’s your mind or ego getting in the way, so you cannot pay attention to that.

 

[00:06:37]

There are no major warnings. Usually, when we’re going through our intuition or inner guru, whatever we want to call it, our gut feel, it’s usually something that’s positive. It can help us with clarity about ourselves, who we are, who we want to be, what our purpose is, what our thing is, how we want to contribute, as well as answer some questions that we are seeking responses to and our mind has just confused us as opposed to help us: mindfulness and confidence. There is no mistake that elite athletes and performers do mental rehearsal before they actually step out into whatever game they’re playing. Our brain doesn’t know the difference between what we’ve done in reality and what we’ve done mentally. For decades, I’ve been super mind centric. And when you think of success, a lot of it’s been around the mind.

 

[00:07:43]

If you want to shift beyond your realm of existence into a domain of infinite potential, you have to shift beyond the mind. It’s been the master for too long, and it’s time to release some of its less appealing duties. In the past, society applauded the mind, and you were well rewarded for your intelligence, your brain power, your ability to work smarter. And in those respects, the mind is a wonderful thing, but it’s also what gets in the way of your potential with its limiting beliefs, fear, the lack of trust, ego, and its concrete reasoning. Sure, the mind can transport you to a higher intelligence level, but it’s only part of the equation. And why take the tough route when there is an easier way? I’d like to propose a new paradigm. The heart is the new mind. Speaking to clients, I actually call it a heartfulness practice.

 

[00:08:36]

But for ease, heartfulness, mindfulness, and meditation are all synonyms to me. Let’s look at this heart and mind paradigm by going back to the fundamentals of quantum physics, which states that “like attracts like.” Like energy, like thoughts, like emotion, like beliefs, like vibrations, like experiences, and you get the drift. If like attracts like, wouldn’t you rather come from a place of love and peace, trust, knowing, joy, and abundance rather than fear, worry, doubt, and ego? The former is a place of the heart, and it’s a far more empowered state, where your heart, or more specifically, love, is the connection to that universal energy, that omnipotent resource and the source of everything and nothing at the same time. But from a human point of view, it’s a utopia, not in the future, but in the day-to-day. And here’s where you leverage your Reality Alchemist™. When you’re happy now and grateful for what you currently have, it creates that quantum vibration that manifests more of the same. Not only does like attract like but by extending beyond the mind and expanding your faculties, I believe that “like attracts life.”

 

[00:10:00]

For those who are dubious and are thinking, I don’t believe in this heart-centered mumbo jumbo, I want results, then maybe science will convince you. The heart is the most powerful generator of electromagnetic energy in the human body. The heart’s electrical field is about 60 times greater in amplitude than the electrical activity generated by the brain, and it permeates every single cell. Research suggests that the heart’s magnetic component is 500 times stronger than the brain’s magnetic field and can be detected several feet away from the body. Further findings indicate that the heart influences the brain, and at the very least, it’s a two-way conversation, as opposed to the brain simply instructing a heart to perform. In fact, research implies that the human heart has its own brain called neural intelligence. Even the belief that conscious awareness originates in the brain is being overturned, with current research indicating consciousness actually emerges from the brain and body acting together. That means becoming a Reality Alchemist™ is all about actualizing your potential and fulfilling your desires so that you can enhance your thread in that universal tapestry of oneness and be a conscious citizen.

 

[00:11:25]

The heart is the key to creating this, with research stating that when an individual experiences heart coherence, a state in which the heart, mind, and emotions are harmoniously aligned, the heart radiates a clear electromagnetic energy field that benefits people, animals, and the environment. There are so many studies about the physical and mental benefits, and I’ll always just give you the overview of the research because this is about embodying, educating, and integrating. It’s not a university lecture. Some of the benefits of mindfulness can decrease symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome, fibromyalgia, psoriasis, anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder. There’s even research that says meditation can give you the brain of a 25 year old. Sarah Lazar is a neuroscientist at Harvard Medical School, and she was training for the Boston Marathon but she had a number of physical ailments. And her physical therapist suggested that she take up yoga. When she attended yoga classes, the teacher was saying how great yoga was; not only was it good for the body and the mind and the soul, and the spirit, but all these other benefits in terms of being more empathetic, connected, and happier in life.

 

[00:12:51]

Now, Sarah was a little bit dubious on these points. After a while, she noticed that she actually was more compassionate and open-hearted and was able to see things from other people’s points of view more often. She thought it was a placebo effect. She decided to take it a step further and did research using brain scans, and she’s known for two key studies. The first study is where she looked at the brain scans of meditators who had a decent amount of experience, say, 7 to 9 years, and the findings were hopeful. So, she did a second study where she took a group of people who had no meditation experience. She noticed that even after just 8 weeks of meditation, it changed their brains for the better. There was thickening in several regions of the brain, including the left hippocampus, which involves learning memory and emotional regulation; the TPJ, which is involved in empathy and the ability to take multiple perspectives; and a part of the brain stem called the pons, where regulatory neurotransmitters are generated.

 

[00:13:57]

Plus, the brains of the new meditators saw shrinkage of the amygdala, a region of the brain associated with fear, anxiety, depression, and aggression, which also reduced their levels of stress. Why is being present so overwhelming, and what’s with this monkey mind that we all have? I don’t know about you, but I’ve got many monkeys in there. According to neuroscience, the scientific study of the nervous system, our brain is not only in charge of managing our physicality, such as breathing, muscles, moving, you know, the little things in life. It also processes 400,000,000,000 bits of information per minute, of which we can only process 2,000 bits. It is no wonder I cannot remember what I ate for lunch yesterday. And we’re only consciously aware of about 0.0001%, less than 1 10 thousandth of what’s available to us. Otherwise, we’d be so overloaded that we literally could not compute. The benefit of mindfulness is that allows us to zone into that succulence of life and literally stop and smell the roses.

 

[00:15:18]

The practice isn’t just some chanting that should be relegated to Buddhist monks. We spend, on average, 9000 hours of our life at work. Incorporating this habit into our work life to reduce stress and heighten satisfaction offers amazing benefits, not just in the workplace but in your life in general. For those who know me, I am a huge data nerd, and so I really appreciated this research by Google. Google ran a search inside your mindfulness program with over 13,000 participants. When they finished, participants reported 34% less emotional drain after the program, 32% greater ability to focus and be more effective, 29% improvement in their ability to maintain calm and poise during challenges, and productivity increases of 62 minutes per week, adding up to 3,000 US dollars per employee per annum. That’s significant. Even if we’re not working for big organizations, imagine if your productivity increased by 62 minutes per week in life.

 

[00:16:31]

You could write a book, spend time with your children, and have a date night, whatever it be. Google’s experiences aren’t isolated. There’s a number of companies experiencing the same benefit when it comes to stress management, engagement, focus, and productivity. And if those Google stats weren’t exciting enough, here are a few more that relate to our personal well-being. They say that meditation can improve anxiety levels by 60%. It can reduce the risk of being hospitalized for coronary disease by 87%, and it can relieve the symptoms of insomnia 75% of the time. As you can imagine, a majority of people are practicing mindfulness or practicing mindfulness or meditation for their overall well-being, and that’s a motivator for over 75% of people. Before we go into the practicalities of how to integrate mindfulness, we have to discover any patterns within you that have and may sabotage your success in implementing this amazing process.

 

[00:17:43]

This is the nexus of being a Reality Alchemist™ and where I provide the most value to my clients, and it’s all about getting real with yourself. I’ve given you the research and the benefits of mindfulness and meditation. Basically, it’s a given if you want to experience fulfillment and success. But this inversion investigation is where we examine what’s going on within you because nothing changes until you do. Let’s look at reasons why you may not want to start or be consistent with your mindfulness practice. It’s time to look within. Busyness is your badge of honor. How many times do we hear people say, how are you? And we respond, oh, my gosh.

 

[00:18:28]

I’m so busy. Busyness makes us feel important or valuable, like, we deserve to exist because you’re contributing. When people ask me now, oh, hi Madisen, how are you going? Are you busy? I actually say, no, I’m inspired and in flow, which just makes them stop in their tracks because it’s not a common response. The most important thing here is to stop playing that game and just do you. I actually don’t believe in time. I believe in output. So I never commit to a time with clients. I just tell them that they’re going to get the optimum output.

 

[00:19:02]

It doesn’t matter how long it takes me or how little it takes me as long as we get to the most phenomenal result. They’re uncomfortable with their own company. If you sit with yourself without distractions, then you might discover something you don’t like, or you have to sit with those uncomfortable feelings, and we don’t want to do that. There was a phenomenal study in the journal called Science, and it was by psychologists Matthew Killingsworth and Timothy Wilson. And here’s what they did: they put the participants, one at a time, in a room for 15 minutes, and it was just alone in a lab room, and all they could really do was push a button to shock themselves if they wanted to. Fifteen minutes of alone time in a lab room with one button that would administer a mild shock. What do you think happened? The gentlemen obviously found it a little bit more uncomfortable because 67% of male participants in the study gave themselves at least one shock during the thinking period. The ladies, 25% of the time.

 

[00:20:12]

On average, the study participants gave themselves 1.47 shocks in a 15-minute interval, except for one overachiever who gave himself 190 shocks in 15 minutes. Killingsworth actually noted that when people are spending time inside their heads, they’re markedly less happy. And because people intentionally or unintentionally are so wrapped up in their thoughts, the research team suggested, no surprises here, meditation or other relaxation practices. I have to say when I was younger, I would be mortified if I spent time on the weekend alone. I thought I was a big loser and I was missing out, so a big case of FOMO. But now I love looking at my diary and seeing their space. And by creating that space, I feel I’m actually enhancing clarity, scanning for what’s needed in the world, and then creating content that serves instead of just racing around working to societies or other people’s priorities. That’s why I like to say it’s a “fullness practice,” so we can embody our whole energetic system and not just a “mindfulness practice,” which is just a minute part of our existence.

 

[00:21:28]

We want to bypass the mind so badly that it makes us uncomfortable that we’ll shock ourselves, or we’ll go into a meltdown if we leave our cell phones at home and have a minute to ourselves. It’s also why I’m so committed to providing these heartfulness practices to explore realities beyond the constructs of the mind in this podcast. Another reason why you may avoid sitting in silence is because you might have had a similar belief to me that if I stopped striving, I’d be stuck. And what I realized that stopping builds more success than racing through life unintentionally and unconsciously. Or maybe you weren’t aware of the benefits of mindfulness, but now you know. And once you know, you can’t unknow it, and ignoring it becomes uncomfortable. You’re welcome. Now if none of those feel right to you, this is all about your bespoke experience as being a Reality Alchemist™.

 

[00:22:34]

Ask yourself this question: “Why do I resist quietening my mind?” And don’t stop delving until you get a, “Wow, that’s an interesting insight,” and you’ll know you’ve hit it. This section is always documented in the show notes at Madisenharper.com/alchemist and scroll down to the show notes section. I invite you to go ahead and decode your behavior based on what we’ve just discussed. But for now, let’s dive in and immerse ourselves into the practice. I want you to get comfortable. You can sit up, lie down, whatever it may be. Some people don’t like to lie down because they actually fall asleep. That would be me, but I’m saying then that my subconscious knows what’s going on.

 

[00:23:18]

Sit up with your feet on the floor if you can; just relax your hands on your knees or wherever it’s comfortable, palm floating up or facing down, it doesn’t matter. I’m going to guide you and then you do your vibe. If you are lying down, just again, nice straight spine, uncross everything because when we cross our limbs, it cuts off flow and energy. So just get really chillaxed. I invite you now to take a nice deep breath in with me, and as you breathe out, close your eyes if you can safely do so. Once again, take a nice big deep breath in and breathe out. And the next deep breath in, I want you to see all your energy coming back into your body. It might be you’ve left some at work or you your children or anything.

 

[00:24:33]

Just bring all your energy collected back into your body, breathing in, collecting all the energy back into your body. Just feel yourself become really full of that vital energy. And as you just go now to your natural breathing state, just in and out, Focusing on my voice now. Any outside noises or distractions, acknowledge it, there’s a noise, and focus back on your breath and my voice. Now, focus on the top of your head, and as you breathe out, just feel your mind relaxing. And now, moving down to your forehead, just relaxing and releasing it, the back of your head. Feel your eyes relaxing, your eyelids, your eyeballs. Breathing in, next breath out, let your jaw relax, your neck, feeling more and more in flow, breathing and releasing any tension in your neck and shoulders.

 

[00:26:12]

Now, focus on your upper back and breathe that beautiful pure air into your back and your chest, feeling your body soften more and more. Taking that breath through your arms, your forearms. Feel it relaxing, letting go. And then feel every finger release Your palms are just open. Any tension is gone. Focusing on your stomach, letting go of any stuckness that may be there. Breathe and let it go. Focus on your lower back.

 

[00:27:26]

And again, just breathe and let the tension out. If there’s anywhere you feel any twitches or uncomfortable in your body or pain, just take a breath and see it being released. It’s allowing the breath just to blow away and disintegrate any stuckness. Breathing now and focusing on releasing your pelvis and your buttocks. The front of your legs, the back of your legs. Releasing your shins and your calves and down through your feet, feeling your left foot become flexible, releasing energy out of each toe, your big toe, the one next to that, the one next to that. The one to the left of that, and follow your pinky toe, seeing that breath go through your body and feet. And now, let’s let that energy release and expand your right foot.

 

[00:29:13]

Imagine sense or feel as you become more and more relaxed. Your right foot is relaxed, your right big toe going to the right of that, going to the right of that, and another, finally, your pinky toe. Just take one nice deep breath and totally relax from the top of your head to the tips of your toes. Now that you’ve come within yourself and released and let go, in this very moment, what are you sensing and feeling? What do you feel on your skin? What’s your mood like? Witness if your breathing is shallow and quick or relaxed. Are you feeling overwhelmed, peaceful, tired, happy? What can you hear nearby and outside? Take a deep breath in. Can you smell anything? Just witnessing what you imagine, sense, or feel. And just taking in a nice deep breath. And as you breathe out, just open your eyes and come back into the space in which you’re sitting or lying.

 

[00:31:42]

What you just experienced is conscious mindfulness, and it’s probably the opposite of what we experience each day. So how was it? Did you enjoy that? Did you find that there were some challenges with keeping in flow or not getting distracted, or did you just soften right into it? No matter what happened, it was perfect. It was perfect for what you needed to do right here and now. What I would love is for you to share your experiences with me. You can go to my social media pages. The links are on madisenharper.com, madisenharper.com/alchemist, or you can use the forms there to submit any questions or feedback. And then, I can get that insight and use them for an upcoming livestream to be of service to you. I encourage you to listen to this a few times this week.

 

[00:32:48]

There will be a separate audio that you can just listen to that relaxation component, and I’ll also be gifting you my relax and reconnect audio that has been downloaded thousands of time. People who have met me in person said they feel like they already know me because they’ve heard my voice every day for years on end. It’s just a 15-minute practice. And people have said they’ve done it 3 times a week have decreased their brain clutter by 80%. That’s pretty amazing. Mindfulness is going to be a big part of our practice because as I promised, every week, we will have a practice that will be in alignment with our topic. If you’d like to discover how to introduce a mindfulness practice to your team or company, reach out to me via my website or social media.
