Hello Chickens. So I have a long list still of chicken questions and so I'm going to

answer a few more of them for this podcast and we're just going to keep doing this till

someday we get through them all or you know the world ends which everyone comes first.

Okay so let's see, is there anything I want to tell you guys beforehand? I think that the main thing I do want to tell all of you because I may not actually be able to get to everybody's questions because this could go on forever.

When you write me a question, if I don't answer it, here's what I want you to ask yourself.

What do I think Kara would say about this?

A lot of times what happens I think is that basically really what goes on in almost all

questions and I totally get this my brain does too, is we accept the concept that our thoughts cause

our feelings and that external circumstances are neutral, but we think it doesn't apply to a situation

where we really believe our thoughts.

That's basically the issue is that we have intellectual buy-in

and maybe we have applied it to situations where it wasn't as emotional for us or we didn't believe

the thought as deeply.

But then we get to a situation where we really believe our thoughts about it, and then we're like,

wait, how does it work here?

Right?

So and all of our brains do this, of course, but the real deep liberation of this work
