Summary
Your breath is the only body rhythm you do both consciously and unconsciously. It is the bridge between your subconscious and conscious mind and body because it controls your nervous system. Every time you take a breath, you respirit, you breathe spirit life force energy back in to you so you can show up from that place right here, right now in the world. - Steven Jaggers

| 0:05.0 | It is the bridge between your subconscious and your conscious mind and body. |
| 0:11.0 | Because it controls your nervous system, we have to heal on a somatic level, on a body-centered level, |
| 0:17.0 | on a nervous system level to become clear mentally. |
| 0:20.0 | Because your body is an antenna |
| 0:21.4 | most of our wounds happen from another person whether or our mom or a dad and so most of our |
| 0:27.2 | healing happens in the presence of another person because when you're by yourself you probably |
| 0:31.9 | aren't getting triggered as soon as you get into a relationship all of your own shit comes up |
| 0:36.1 | no doubt because you look at |
| 0:38.5 | something like trauma, it's in the body, it's a response. It's not the thing that's happening to you. |
| 0:44.0 | It's what's happening inside of you based on what's happening to you. Trauma is not the event. |
| 0:49.9 | Stress isn't the event. And what's happening inside of you is based off that ancestral lineage, |
| 0:55.1 | both your nature and the instinctual and emotional memories that were passed on to you. |
| 1:02.2 | It's also your experiences and what you've been through, what you've overcome, |
| 1:05.8 | and how much resilience you've had. Because what's traumatic to me might not be traumatic to you. |
| 1:23.1 | Yeah. you've had because what's traumatic to me might not be traumatic to you. Stephen, we're here. We're here. We made it. Thank you for being on the show. It's been three |
| 1:26.8 | plus years. We have a mutual friend, Anah on the show. It's been three plus years. We |
| 1:28.0 | have a mutual friend, Anahata, and I got to drop in with you in Sedona. Now it's pretty cool timing. Three years later, we get to connect. And just so grateful you're here, man. We marinate on this for a minute. So I'm stoked to have you here. It's a perfect timing, brother. And it's an honor. Thank you. You're welcome. You were one of those people along my journey that just gave me a little nudge that was like, keep going, you know? You've been in the game for a while. Whoa, I just got a full chill. Yesterday, I recorded a podcast. I told my story about the Vision Quest where God told me to keep going. My guest, God had told him to keep going. |
| 2:03.5 | Now you're telling me, I mean, this is like a cool moment. |
| 2:05.7 | You're telling me that just me being in your life in some way was fuel to keep you going. |
| 2:10.7 | This is the coolest part about the fact that we're all one. |
