Podcast Book: Corporate Dropouts Most Influential Person Vishen Lakhiani, CEO of Mindvalley Effect on Emotions When I was younger, and when I was really in survival mode, when emotions came up, I acted on impulse. Oftentimes, I acted out against myself, I would drink too much or I would just do something reckless. Over the years, I've learned that emotions are information. Emotions are literally energy in motion and when you allow that emotion to move through you, and you allow yourself to be aware of it, you can watch what happens without judgment without judging yourself for Why am I feeling angry? Or why am I feeling sad? Or why am I getting so upset about this, and you recognize it as a process that has to happen. You allow it to happen, which means the energy doesn't build up in your body as something harmful.

Thoughts on Breathing Breathing is one of those things that if we don't pay attention to, can really mess with. It can kind of be the catalyst for us to feel anxious.

That can actually be a biological signal to our bodies, that we're in anxiety mode, and that will trigger a panic attack. However, if you pay attention to your breathing, and you allow yourself to breathe fully into your chest into your belly and let the breath go throughout your body, you will actually subdue those biochemical processes that you don't want to happen. Like an anxiety attack. You Attract What You Are.

Because I was being bullied at my old school. You Attract What You Are. There's this daughter of a teacher there, for some reason, I just totally rubbed her the wrong way. So she came after me. And because her mom was a teacher, I ended up having to leave the school. You Attract What You Are. When I went to my new school, I became a bully. I was so angry and lonely. I didn't know anybody.  I've always been tall. So I was taller than a lot of the boys. And I guess I was strong. I was like a scrawny kid. But I guess I was physically strong. And so I would assert my strength. Looking back on it, I was trying to demonstrate, “don't mess with me”. But yeah, I can protect myself and I remember there was one boy in particular, who I would pick on, and we're actually really good friends until today. But I would grab his backpack and swing him around. I had a teacher who called me into the classroom one day, and she goes, You are a bully.  I got so angry at that because I don't like bullies. And I was like, I'm not a bully. And she pointed out what I was doing. Of course, I was in fourth grade. So I didn't fully have the cognitive capacity t
