    <description><![CDATA[<p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/862555/fan_mail/new">Send us Fan Mail</a></p><p>Something that i feel is universal in our world is the notion that we will all inevitably face challenges within our lives. This being said, what separates the individuals that see those challenges as opportunities from the individuals who allow those challenges to become blockades that prevent them from overcoming them? In my experience, this difference rests on not only our mindset, but the subsequent views &amp; perception we have upon the world around us. This is why I feel it is SO crucial to not only work on our mindset &amp; dive into why we believe what we believe about life, but to also make friends with the inner critic within us that tells us we can’t, couldn’t, wouldn’t or shouldn’t consciously choose to embark upon a new way of living &amp; see our inner critic as our best friend in disguise &amp; the only aspect of us willing to beat us down in hopes of us using those criticisms to fuel us into the most epic journey of life possible for us in our lives.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/862555/fan_mail/new">Send us Fan Mail</a></p><p>Something that i feel is universal in our world is the notion that we will all inevitably face challenges within our lives. This being said, what separates the individuals that see those challenges as opportunities from the individuals who allow those challenges to become blockades that prevent them from overcoming them? In my experience, this difference rests on not only our mindset, but the subsequent views &amp; perception we have upon the world around us. This is why I feel it is SO crucial to not only work on our mindset &amp; dive into why we believe what we believe about life, but to also make friends with the inner critic within us that tells us we can’t, couldn’t, wouldn’t or shouldn’t consciously choose to embark upon a new way of living &amp; see our inner critic as our best friend in disguise &amp; the only aspect of us willing to beat us down in hopes of us using those criticisms to fuel us into the most epic journey of life possible for us in our lives. Todays guest on the show is a man who is a prime example of someone who has made friends with not only his inner critic, but also his fear &amp; has allowed these positive reframes of these aspects of himself to propel him into living life on his own terms &amp; creating the life of his dreams.

The more that we are able to look at the idea of optimization as a journey, rather than a destination, the more we can actually enjoy that journey &amp; trust in the notion that so long as we put our best foot forward each day, we will ultimately end up exactly where we’re meant to be. The reason this is so powerful is that within our lives as individuals who are passionate about becoming the best versions of ourselves, things will inevitably take place that make us question everything in our lives &amp; to the degree that we can surrender into this, we will be able to see these things as happening for us, rather than to us. Todays guests on the show are individuals who are not only extremely passionate &amp; dedicated to optimizing their experience of life, but they are also individuals who know this cyclical process fore-mentioned well. Within their journey, they have been able to navigate a subject that many people become anxious just hearing about, which is the subject of divorce. Now this being said, not only did they fall in love, get married &amp; then move through divorce, but they actually were able to trust in this process, learn from it &amp; find an even deeper level of love for one another &amp; themselves as a result. Together, they are the hosts of “the medicin” podcast, which is a show that dives into real life relationship development with a splash of not only spirituality but also PG-13 humor &amp; in addition, they are passionate about helping those they serve achieve the highest quality life possible through the products they create, such as Immune Intel AHCC, which is a product created from the roots of Shiitake mushrooms &amp; aids in the process of educating &amp; regulating the immune system by increasing the number of immune cells in the body &amp; improving their communication overall, along with products created from companies they work with, such as the full line of incredible products offered by Organifi, which allow anyone to access high quality ingredients with no risk of glyphosate or pesticides. This episode is sure to ignite the spark of love within you &amp; allow you to use that love to tune into all the beautiful aspects in your process of life with a new set of eyes in realizing that no matter where you are currently in your life, you are exactly where you’re meant to be at this time in your process of life.<br/><br/><b>Show Notes: </b></p><p>(2:53) Welcome Chase &amp; Mimi!</p><p>(7:16) Stop taking yourself so seriously!</p><p>(10:21) Part 1 and 2 of their marriage.</p><p>(15:55) Everything in life is a projection. </p><p>(21:55) Check out Freedom Builderz! </p><p>(24:39) Thinking about discussion.</p><p>(30:52) Life is like Pokemon!</p><p>(36:17) Getting frustrated, trying to know.</p><p>(42:53) Join the Connect With Cannabis Program!</p><p>(50:28) What helped shift Chase’s relationship with health.  </p><p>(56:43) Where you can find Chase &amp; Mimi.</p><p>(1:01:39) One FINAL question.</p><p>This episode was produced by Mazel Tov Media in Quincy, Massachusetts.<br/><br/></p><p><a href="https://sacredsmokecollective.com/">Purchase Organic High Quality THCA Hemp Flower (use code HIGHLY at checkout for a discount):&nbsp;</a></p><p><a href="https://sacredsmokecollective.com/">https://sacredsmokecollective.com/</a></p>]]></description>

    <description><![CDATA[<p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/862555/fan_mail/new">Send us Fan Mail</a></p><p>For anyone who has been listening to this show long enough, you know my love &amp; affinity for the Cannabis plant. This plant is one which I have a deep relationship with &amp; one which has aided me in my never ending quest for physical, emotional, mental &amp; spiritual well being. This being said, one of the areas that is gaining a lot of popularity within the realm of Cannabis is that of Cannabis &amp; exercise, specifically within the area of running. When we run, we stimulate the release of endocannabinoids, such as Anadamide, which allow us to feel the “high” commonly associated with exercise.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/862555/fan_mail/new">Send us Fan Mail</a></p><p>For anyone who has been listening to this show long enough, you know my love &amp; affinity for the Cannabis plant. This plant is one which I have a deep relationship with &amp; one which has aided me in my never ending quest for physical, emotional, mental &amp; spiritual well being. This being said, one of the areas that is gaining a lot of popularity within the realm of Cannabis is that of Cannabis &amp; exercise, specifically within the area of running. When we run, we stimulate the release of endocannabinoids, such as Anadamide, which allow us to feel the “high” commonly associated with exercise. When we interact with Cannabis &amp; run, however, we not only stimulate these endocannabinoids, but we are also able to invoke a sense of “one-ness” with the nature around us, which ultimately brings forth the ability to be more present &amp; calm, even in the face of intense physical challenges. Todays guest on the show is an expert in the realm of Cannabis &amp; running &amp; is someone I am extremely excited to dive in with on the subject of Cannabis as a whole.

    <description><![CDATA[<p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/862555/fan_mail/new">Send us Fan Mail</a></p><p>If there is one thing I have noticed within the world at large &amp; more specifically, the realm of plant medicines, it is that we have many elders, but have lost much of the wise elders of the world. In ancient societies &amp; even today in small circles, these wise elders would help the rest of their tribe understand the process of life &amp; in the realm of plant medicines, act as guides that would protect those that were looking to traverse these worlds &amp; allow them to understand the ceremonial aspects that go along with them. The beauty of this is that, as the famous quote states, “how you do anything is how you do everything.” What these wise elders would allow the younger generations to understand &amp; embody is that every single aspect of our lives can be ceremonial in nature &amp; when life is engaged in in this way, life becomes a psychedelic experience in &amp; of itself. Today’s guest on the show is someone who has been doing his part as a wise elder to re-educate the countless coaches &amp; individuals he works with in how to make every aspect of their lives a ceremony &amp; has been a juggernaut in the world of making this process one which is enjoyable &amp; joyous in nature.

    <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/862555/fan_mail/new">Send us Fan Mail</a></p><p>If there is one thing I have noticed within the world at large &amp; more specifically, the realm of plant medicines, it is that we have many elders, but have lost much of the wise elders of the world. In ancient societies &amp; even today in small circles, these wise elders would help the rest of their tribe understand the process of life &amp; in the realm of plant medicines, act as guides that would protect those that were looking to traverse these worlds &amp; allow them to understand the ceremonial aspects that go along with them. The beauty of this is that, as the famous quote states, “how you do anything is how you do everything.” What these wise elders would allow the younger generations to understand &amp; embody is that every single aspect of our lives can be ceremonial in nature &amp; when life is engaged in in this way, life becomes a psychedelic experience in &amp; of itself. Today’s guest on the show is someone who has been doing his part as a wise elder to re-educate the countless coaches &amp; individuals he works with in how to make every aspect of their lives a ceremony &amp; has been a juggernaut in the world of making this process one which is enjoyable &amp; joyous in nature. Not only this, but he is also an extremely skilled shaman &amp; has been a proponent of the responsible, conscious use of plant medicines since far before the explosion of popularity in recent times regarding these medicines. In addition, he is the founder &amp; legendary voice &amp; soul behind the CHEK institute, which has been empowering coaches in the teachings of holistic health &amp; how to understand HOW to learn, rather than the typical approach in modern day educational establishments, which is primarily based on WHAT to learn, for the last 26 years, is the host of the Living 4d podcast, where he showcases in depth, powerful conversations with leading experts in the realms of health, fitness, spirituality, plant medicines &amp; more with the intention of bringing the uncensored truth of the world at large to the people &amp; is someone that I as well as countless others have looked up to as a massive inspiration in our never ending quest of curiosity, child like wonder of the world around us &amp; how to remember our divine nature as god embodied in the human form.<br/><br/><br/>Show Notes:<br/><br/><b>(3:40) Ryan Asks Paul about how he first got interested in the idea of plant medicines. </b></p><p>(7:20) Paul talks about being introduced to DMT</p><p>(14:00) Paul talks about growing up</p><p>(23:09) Paul asks about the setting and the dosage.</p><p>(24:07) Paul talks about his experiences with LSD</p><p>(26:57) Paul talks about carrying an “entity” with him</p><p>(37:07) Paul talks about what can go wrong in a ceremony</p><p>(39:37) Ryan talks about setting intentions </p><p>(40:57) Paul gives his answer as to what REALLY is going on here.</p><p>(50:27) Paul talks about WHY we’re here</p><p>(53:02) Paul talks about the evolving soul.</p><p>(56:37) Paul talks about entering different realms </p><p>(60:07) Paul talks about Love</p><p>(66:52) Paul talks about Kung FU</p><p>(68:07) Paul talks about compassion</p><p>(78:11) Ryan asks Paul what he thinks humanity needs in order to evolve.</p><p>(89:56) Paul talks about how he sees the world</p><p>(96:26) Paul talks about religious systems</p><p>(98:09) Paul speaks about the point of plant medicines</p><p>(104:56) Pauls advice for someone seeking to try psychedelics for the first time. </p><p><a href='http://ChekInstitute.com'>ChekInstitute.com</a> living4dwithPaulChek.  <a href='http://Chekiva.com'>Chekiva.com</a></p><p>Private workshops <a href='mailto:penny@paulchek.com'>penny@paulchek.com</a></p><p><br/></p><p><a href="https://sacredsmokecollective.com/">Purchase Organic High Quality THCA Hemp Flower (use code HIGHLY at checkout for a discount):&nbsp;</a></p><p><a href="https://sacredsmokecollective.com/">https://sacredsmokecollective.com/</a></p>]]></content:encoded>

Being a 30 year veteran of the fight for legalization, he has been an integral player in the process of destigmatizing cannabis by working to change laws, including assisting in Prop 215 &amp; Prop 64, which legalized cannabis in California, starting a variety of cannabis companies, as well as using his voice to share the amazing stories of individuals whose lives have been helped by cannabis. Not only this, but he is also a pioneer in the realm of expungement having co founded the Last Prisoner Project which seeks to bring restorative justice to the cannabis industry.
