URLS mentioned: Marvin’s Store More Marvin Hug Nation at Flow Temple (Venice Beach) Steve Palvina’s Book Post “Practice Makes Present” INCLUDES: - NOW moment - Marvin Ong’s Bday Party - My past, I struggled to have the discipline to stick with something that I was not immediately good at. - For example, snowboarding. - If you read a book a week on your subject, in 5-7 years, you will be a world expert in that discipline. - The journey of 1000 miles begins with the first step. - But that can be daunting, to look towards that far goal - But practice is not just about getting to Mastery. thats a trap! - Yoga- the whole point is Practice. - Practice in the yoga sense is liberating. Whatever is happening in the Now IS the experience - the Journey is the Destination - Marvin Ong “when I first started, I practiced to be the best. Now, I practice to get present.” - “Practice makes Present” - It is in the NOW that life is experienced. - Hugnation is an example of “practice makes present.” We’re not trying to get anywhere. It is an exercise in becoming present. - Halcyon flows!

Amidst a perfect weekend, I got caught up in suffering thoughts. How? Why? And how did I shake myself loose. “Decide to make yourself Happy” is easier said than done. But what it really requires is learning how to change mental direction quickly and MANAGE MOMENTUM!

 “See The Puppy” Hug Nation Oct 30 2012 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0:18:22

Seeing people at their best… Seeing the divine in them… it is IMPORTANT. It affects your relationship and it changes who they are. As we start seeing one another as our best, our baseline actually starts to rise. INCLUDES: - Learn to see people “with their puppy.” at their best - People like to hang out with people who are visualizing them at their best. - We tend to meet people’s expectations. - Everybody wants to be their best. if others believe that they are, they step into the role. It snowballs. - Practice noticing the things that are going well. - Its tempting to remember the negative. For ourselves and others. Instead, remember the high points! - Allow ourselves our dips, but focus on the peaks. - forgiving the lows and accentuating the peaks raises the baseline. - puppy HUG __ post hug (actually pre-hug) - Finding evidence of what you are looking for - Private coaching - In college, I studied psychology and wanted to be a councillor. I wanted to help healthy people get even better. - Now there is a field of “Life Coaching”, for people who are healthy and want to get better! Thrilling! - I see a LIfe Coach, and its been very valuable. - I advise everyone to dedicate something, towards your pursuit of joy. - growth is about gaining tools. Which can snap you back into a joyful headspace. - How to tell your story. Be a better editor. You have tons of footage.. what do you use as part of your story?

 “Direction, Not Distance” Hug Nation Oct 9, 2012 | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 0:00:01

Today we discussed how we begin as clear straws, and then begin to get congested with the sediment of our socialization. And how it can be important to focus on being aligned with truth, and let the magnitude of your actions work themselves out. (Watch a previous full episode on “clear straws”) this video includes: - Focus first on the direction. On your alignment. - First Saturdays - If you are in alignment, you take the next step, the ripples, if they are true will be felt. - You don’t Make it happen, you Allow it to happen - Trying to be as clear as possible, walk with as much integrity and love as possible is the direction. keep correcting, keep realigning. And things will happen. - As we align ourselves to OUR truth, because we are all connected, we collectively, make all of humanity more in alignment with the divine. - not about the magnitude, about the integrity.
