In this episode, we explore how meditation—especially simple breath observation—not only helps reduce physical pain, but also leads us toward deeper self-realization and the discovery of the Higher Self.

You'll learn why even enlightened beings still experience physical illness, yet no longer suffer, and how your own mind might resist the simplicity of meditation by calling it “boring” or “unproductive.” We dive into the difference between physical pain and mental suffering, and how meditation can help dissolve the ego's constant struggle.

Whether you're new to meditation or have practiced for years, this episode bridges the gap between modern medical benefits and the profound spiritual potential of breath awareness.

💡 Topics include:

• How breath meditation can ease pain

• Why suffering is not the same as pain

• How the ego resists true stillness

• The deeper goal: freedom from suffering and connection to the Higher Self

🧘‍♂️ For seekers ready to go beyond surface-level practice.

Sometimes after the unconscious sleeping phases we suffer in the morning already from over-thinking. I suffered from that many years, still as meditator. Throughout the time I have developed 5 easy steps to focus the mind. In this episode, I'd like to share my experience :)

In ancient greek there were 2 words for time. The 1st one, chronos is the clock-time which is quantitative and measurable. The 2nd one, kairos is "qualitative" time and can meant as to good time which you spend with your friends or in your freetime in general. We also discuss the relative aspect here, which is explained from Albert Einstein.
