Flex. Nice 13 00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:53,400 Speaker 1: to have you on the podcast. 14 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 2: Welcome, I'm so stoked to be here. I love a chat. 15 00:00:56,680 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 1: Oh me too, and especially about this time. I've never 16 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 1: gone down this path before. Before we get to the 17 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:07,399 Speaker 1: whole AI decoding dreams, tell us about your deep connection 18 00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: with your dreams. 19 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 2: I wish we had forty five minutes because I'm resistingly 20 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:16,280 Speaker 2: urged to ramble, but from the beginning of time, but 21 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 2: if you kick on, I've been a quintessential dreamer, not 22 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,560 Speaker 2: just in the big goals kind of sense, in the 23 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:24,680 Speaker 2: I have a dream every night, and I'd be running 24 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 2: to tell somebody, anybody about it. Granted I only had 25 00:01:28,640 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 2: I would say, ninety eight percent nightmares until I was 26 00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,959 Speaker 2: about twenty seven. Won't get into that, But for that reason, 27 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 2: I had really vizied, imaginative, reoccurring and also symbolically rich dreams, 28 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 2: and I couldn't talk to anybody else about it because 29 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 2: they were like, I don't really dream that off theen 30 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 2: or don't even worry about that. There's no reason to 31 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:52,280 Speaker 2: decode that. They don't mean anything. Your brain goes to 32 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 2: sleep when you're asleep, and studies have shown that that's 33 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 2: not the case. We're still trying to uncover what is 34 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 2: it the brain's actually doing when we're asleep. It's categorizing, 35 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,760 Speaker 2: it's decoding, it's putting things into their nice little neat 36 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 2: pockets so you don't have to think about storing them 37 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,520 Speaker 2: and processing them. But because we clog our brains all 38 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,600 Speaker 2: day with stuffs and then we go to bed and 39 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 2: we're fighting demons, it feels as though we're missing the 40 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:21,119 Speaker 2: secret sauce, Like, Okay, you had the dream. It was strange, 41 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 2: it was freaky, but what actually happened and how did 42 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 2: it make you feel? And what are these reoccurring themes? 43 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 2: I know you think it's just about teeth and snakes 44 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 2: and water, but your subconscious talks to you and symbols. 45 00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:39,000 Speaker 2: It doesn't know English, okay, it predates language. All it 46 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 2: knows is how to show you pictures and emotions, because 47 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 2: that's what we're programmed to know and feel. 48 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:46,960 Speaker 1: Do you have you always? I mean, what do you do? 49 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:48,600 Speaker 1: You know how when you dream and you wake up 50 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:50,639 Speaker 1: and then you think, what just happened? Am I going 51 00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 1: to remember this? Have you been diligent in writing them down? 52 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: Or how do you kind of process them after the fact. 53 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 2: I've got a whole price. So right now, at my 54 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 2: advance point in time, I'll do a couple of things. 55 00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 2: I got my whole journal. I'll carry literal listeners. 56 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:13,920 Speaker 1: She's showing me this on the screen, on the screen. 57 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:18,960 Speaker 2: And if on like a day when I'm really into it, 58 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 2: i'd say five days out of the week, I'll grab 59 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:24,040 Speaker 2: my voice note voice memo on my phone. I'll talk 60 00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:27,399 Speaker 2: into my phone. I don't try and you know, articulate. 61 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 2: And then my mother Liz said this, No, I just 62 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 2: speak and ramble and ramble and ramble. Then I take 63 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 2: that voice file, transcribe it, put it into an AI software. 64 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 2: I'm using Microsoft Copilot plus PC at the moment, and 65 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 2: I'll give it a prompt and I'll say, can you 66 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:46,760 Speaker 2: explain to me what are these recurring symbols that keep 67 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 2: coming up and how that could relate to me right now? 68 00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 2: And it might say what's going on in your life? 69 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 2: I might say, I don't want to express that, just 70 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 2: let me know what's coming through. And then it will say, oh, well, 71 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 2: we're seeing there's a lot happening here in terms of transformation. 72 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,119 Speaker 2: You said you had a dream a couple of days 73 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 2: ago that incorporated water and shells, that things coming back 74 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 2: up again. Have you considered that in your research? You 75 00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 2: did about this and this, but that keeps coming up, 76 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 2: And I'll say, oh, I forgot about that dream I 77 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 2: had before. Thank you for recalling that. And so it's 78 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 2: been really awesome because very few people have the ability 79 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 2: to recall the super saucy, nourishing details of the dream. 80 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 2: And most often we like to imbue these symbols with 81 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 2: our own meanings, so we think the people we see 82 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 2: are literally the people that are in our lives or 83 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 2: the place you went to is the literal place, but no, 84 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 2: we're talking about the archetype of what you're experiencing. Are 85 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 2: you in a safer unsafe environment? Is it dark outside 86 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 2: or light outside? Did you feel good or bad when 87 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:47,919 Speaker 2: this happened to you? And that's when you really start 88 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,239 Speaker 2: to get to the good bit. But the thing about 89 00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 2: me is I'm a fanatic. I've been studying astrology, terror 90 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 2: and mysticism, esotericism for the greater part of twelve years 91 00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 2: thirteen years. In the first book I wrote the six 92 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,599 Speaker 2: Sex Experiment, I was squeezing in things by manifestation, just 93 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 2: something light so they knew so then you but not 94 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 2: everybody wants to learn a decade's worth of information to 95 00:05:11,279 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 2: get the goods back in return, And so I really 96 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,919 Speaker 2: advocate for taking shortcuts. Your shortcut could be your spooky friend, 97 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 2: your witchy friend, or your shortcut becomes AI. And in 98 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 2: this instance, I feel like you do yourself a disservice 99 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 2: when you think you can't access these tools because you 100 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 2: yourself are not an expert. You're not going to be 101 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 2: an expert in most things, but you are bound to 102 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 2: get some kind of benefit if you allow yourself some little, 103 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:41,000 Speaker 2: small micro steps to at least try do a search 104 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 2: term as something. So this is what you're gonna do. 105 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: Okay, whether or not you'll need a. 106 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 2: Whole new PC, that's besides me. But if you do 107 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:54,239 Speaker 2: Microsoft Copilot plus PC, it's for you. All the AI 108 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:56,840 Speaker 2: is encoded into the hardware and the software, so you're 109 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 2: not going to go into a separate browser, type in 110 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,359 Speaker 2: what you need and then view the information. So you 111 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 2: can do that with Copilot. The distinction between having the 112 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 2: software in the hardware is that as you're typing on 113 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 2: your computer, everything on the computer is available for the 114 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,479 Speaker 2: AI to scrub through to get more inside and inspiration. 115 00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 2: If you've been googling about mermaid and menstrual cycles and 116 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:25,160 Speaker 2: traveling to Peru, it can recall that information for you. However, 117 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 2: if you're just wanting some entry level I just want 118 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 2: to know how I can do this today, what you're 119 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,279 Speaker 2: going to do is the moment you wake up, you're 120 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 2: going to type or voice to text into Copilot and 121 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 2: you're going to say, I had a dream last night. 122 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 2: I'm not sure what it means. I'm trying to understand it. 123 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 2: Please give me simple, actionable, detailed summaries of what this 124 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 2: dream could mean. And I want you to give me 125 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 2: two versions, one that's really really spiritual and one that 126 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,320 Speaker 2: is practical. And if you can even do it, back 127 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:00,240 Speaker 2: it up with some side. 128 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:02,920 Speaker 1: And are you have you been happy with the outcome, 129 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 1: Like is it ever coughed up something where you're like, Okay, 130 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: that's a bit disturbing or yeah. 131 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 2: I had a dream a couple of months ago that 132 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 2: I rocked up to like an Olympic sized pool and 133 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:17,800 Speaker 2: they were like, it's you. You're going to swim for Australia. 134 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 2: And I was like, look, you go a strong swimmer. 135 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:21,960 Speaker 2: I'm not a strong swimmer. And they were like you're 136 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 2: the only one here that can do it. And I 137 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:25,960 Speaker 2: was freaking out because I was like, I can't do it. 138 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 2: So I'm going up to the registration desk and I'm 139 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 2: letting them know that, like, hey, I don't know who 140 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 2: told you that I'm going to be the swimmer, but 141 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 2: I can't do it. And this woman at the desk 142 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 2: is like, if you keep counting yourself out before you've tried, 143 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 2: you'll never get gold. Now granted I'm not trying to 144 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 2: be an Olympic swimmer, but there was something there that 145 00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:45,920 Speaker 2: message that had I just left it and been like 146 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 2: that was a wacky GM back swimming, I would have 147 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 2: never understood it was trying to say, but there are 148 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:54,360 Speaker 2: tons of situations where I'm like, probably not the right person. 149 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: What do you mean? 150 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 2: Well, it not me? 151 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: So that is so how would you take that and 152 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 1: apply to your life? Like have you taken the outcome 153 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: whether it be that one or another outcome and gone okay, yes, 154 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: I can use this to you know, steer my decisions 155 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:10,720 Speaker 1: in life. 156 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:14,119 Speaker 2: Absolutely, So I always say try not to go straight 157 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 2: from interpretation to action because there's this whole bit in 158 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 2: between where you don't necessarily understand the information you've been bestowed. 159 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 2: That's where you get side swept. So I do what 160 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 2: I call shadow work. But essentially it's a process in 161 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 2: which you're trying to decode, interpret what your subconscious is 162 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,679 Speaker 2: really wanting you to know. So I'll take this idea 163 00:08:33,120 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 2: stop counting yourself out. And I can even use AI 164 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,559 Speaker 2: for this and say, can you please give me five 165 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,160 Speaker 2: journal prompts in and around this topic that I can 166 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 2: start to write about. And as I write about it, 167 00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 2: I'll see similar themes coming up, like okay, it does 168 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 2: count as counting yourself out when you don't want to 169 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,400 Speaker 2: go for that walk because you only have thirty minutes 170 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 2: instead of an hour, you are counting yourself out. And 171 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,880 Speaker 2: what I also try to do is like I'm all 172 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 2: about grounding all of these concepts information for information sake. 173 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 2: I've been there, I've done that. I'm a mercurial person. 174 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 2: I love a little chit chat and I love a 175 00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 2: little Google. But it gets to a point where you're 176 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 2: just taking up space in your brain and you need 177 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 2: to you need to let somebody else help you. And 178 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 2: if you don't have community, I guess for now you 179 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:14,679 Speaker 2: do have AI. 180 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 1: It's a community. For now you can rely on that flex. 181 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:20,239 Speaker 1: Thank you for coming on healthy. 182 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 2: Ish my pleasure.
