You're listening to the Human Upgrade with
0:03
Dave Aspirate. Formerly.
0:08
Bulletproof radio. You're.
0:17
Listening to The Human Upgrade with
0:20
Dave Asprey, I
0:22
guess today is Laura Co.
0:24
She's an author, a blogger,
0:26
a certified life coach, Was
0:30
not these days. But.
0:34
She helps in what I
0:36
was going to call the
0:38
the soft intuitive areas of
0:40
coaching. I've worked with coaches
0:42
in in my life who
0:44
are very. The
0:46
tail end goals and metric or
0:49
he that and are some that
0:51
are like you can Do it.
0:53
I cannot really need the i
0:56
can do it most of the
0:58
time but sometimes you'll find someone
1:00
who just has a unique ability
1:03
to see as you be unseen.
1:05
And I heard about Laura and
1:07
said this is really interesting because
1:10
you're she's been a real educational
1:12
stuff, sold, sold her company as
1:14
a healthcare tech. Entrepreneur and
1:16
then went back into hear
1:19
her club philosophical roots. She's
1:21
read about emotional obesity, but
1:23
the reason I'm interviewing her
1:25
today isn't around that it's
1:27
actually about some called the
1:30
Akashi Record. Your
1:32
long time listener and you're attuned
1:34
to metaphysics and spirituality. You might
1:37
have heard me mention this maybe
1:39
four or five times on past
1:41
episodes, just in passing, usually when
1:44
it surrounds a neuroscience. Or psychedelic
1:46
or something like that. I haven't
1:48
really spoken about that too much
1:51
publicly, but it's an an area
1:53
of oh Gotcha Money training and
1:55
other as which are practices that
1:58
I'm familiar. So
2:00
when Laura learned how to tap into the Akashic record, she's
2:02
gonna tell us what they are in a minute, she
2:05
wrote something called the Nature
2:07
of Series and actually
2:09
started something called the Little Soul School.
2:11
That's why she's been in Forbes helping
2:13
to post New York Observer and
2:15
a bunch of other magazines. So we're gonna
2:17
talk about weird psychology,
2:20
dreamland, metaphysical
2:22
stuff on the show today. And am
2:25
I saying all this is real? No. Am
2:28
I saying it's not real? No, because I'm
2:30
not a douchebag. And the
2:32
people who say that can't be, because
2:37
it can't be our circular logic,
2:40
kind of religious dogmatic people. What
2:42
I'm going to ask you to do here is suspend your disbelief
2:44
if you have it and see if there might be something to
2:46
this. In my experience there is, but
2:49
it is not always a two
2:51
plus two equals four kind of a thing.
2:53
So if it happens more than 30% of the time, it's
2:57
probably not placebo. With that
2:59
notice, let's go. Laura, welcome. Thank
3:02
you. Thank you. I love
3:04
your intro. So fun to be here today. It's
3:09
fun to be able to go deep on neuroscience
3:12
and then go deep into esoteric stuff. And
3:14
one of the things I like is
3:17
that you've actually gone out
3:19
and done something sizable and successful in
3:21
the real world. So your credibility when
3:23
you talk about spiritual stuff is different.
3:25
And you're saying, okay, I was raised
3:27
in a commune. The first
3:29
six years of my life, I was in darkness in a
3:32
cave raised by nuns. I'm very
3:34
intrigued by that, but you also could just be
3:36
bad shit crazy. So what you
3:38
do, you've shown an ability to execute in the
3:40
real world and to
3:43
execute in other parts of
3:45
the world as well, which is really cool.
3:47
So people who have a foot on both sides are
3:49
more intriguing to me. So
3:52
walk me through the acoustic
3:54
records. What is that? What's
3:56
going on with this? Yeah, yeah,
3:59
I appreciate the. perspective of your audience and
4:01
what you're sharing, it's mine. I mean, I
4:03
grew up close to atheist. You know, I
4:05
built and sold a healthcare tech company and
4:07
I would have said I was like a
4:09
healthy skeptic, you know, I sort of believed
4:12
in maybe something but but that
4:14
was kind of it. But I bumped into
4:16
this one day, I didn't
4:19
know what it was, never heard of it, went
4:21
in and did a reading and
4:23
I was like, what was that?
4:25
So the Akashic record, simply put,
4:28
it's the energetic space. of
4:30
your soul's history. Everything
4:32
you've ever done in all of your
4:34
lifetimes. So this system is
4:37
based on a multiple lifetime
4:39
incarnation belief system, whether you believe that or not.
4:42
It's just what what the belief is and
4:44
it's like a Google Cloud,
4:46
if you will. So
4:49
imagine a massive cloud where everything
4:51
you're doing is stored there and you're
4:54
able to then pull down and
4:56
access this information in an
4:59
organized Google search. So imagine
5:01
there's a Google search and...
5:03
If it's a Google search, is there
5:05
a lot of censorship and manipulation from Big Pharma
5:08
in the Akashic records? I'm just wondering. No,
5:11
no, not that kind of Google
5:13
search. But just to make it more tangible for
5:16
people, because it's so odd sounding,
5:18
it took me years to try to explain
5:20
this to people because of the the
5:23
nature of the topic and how little it's been studied. So
5:25
I just think of it this way. Like
5:27
you go to Google, you type in a ski resorts
5:30
and you get back tons of
5:32
ski jackets. What if you could type
5:35
in, I want to go skiing and
5:37
you get back one result with the
5:39
perfect place for you, the
5:41
boots you need, the jacket you need,
5:44
everything's hyperlinked in one result. And so
5:46
the Akashic records are
5:48
everything. And then an Akashic record
5:50
reading is an ability to
5:52
pull down just the right information for you
5:54
in this moment in time to help you
5:57
with the specific thing you're asking about. It's
6:00
not about skiing, it's about you learning
6:02
about yourself in a deeper way to
6:04
kind of break through. I sort
6:06
of think if you had like a bunch of friends and
6:08
a team of therapists and a guru and
6:11
they were like, how do we help Laura out in
6:14
this moment, right? In the best way,
6:16
it feels like that you get this exceptional
6:18
advice that speaks to somewhere really
6:20
deep inside of you that even a team of therapists
6:22
wouldn't have gotten out of me. And
6:24
it just breaks you open to a deeper
6:28
understanding of yourself so you can move forward
6:30
and honestly experience
6:34
a bigger life, right? Which is what I think most of
6:36
us want. We want to be happier, we want to experience
6:40
more, right? Have those two things
6:42
in tandem. And so that's
6:44
my quick answer. What
6:47
makes you qualified to access the Akashic Records?
6:51
Like an encryption key, is the right URL? Like...
6:55
Yeah, no, it's a great question, right?
6:57
Like I went and did it and I would have said I
6:59
was like not a mystical person, even 1%. When
7:02
you say you did it, was this you going into a state
7:04
or you worked with someone who knew how to do it?
7:06
Yeah, I walked in a room, I met with a woman
7:08
who did it. She was awesome.
7:10
She told me things about myself that my
7:12
best friends wouldn't have articulated. It
7:14
was extremely helpful. So I like to
7:16
explore things that are useful. I did
7:18
a ton of them and every single
7:20
time it was helpful. And
7:23
at one point I heard
7:25
that I could learn to do this and I
7:27
thought that's absolutely not an option for me. I
7:29
can't even imagine it. But I did
7:31
it just because I'm that kind of person. I like to
7:33
explore things. I don't know. I don't
7:35
really live in a
7:38
life where I judge things before I experience
7:40
them for myself. So I thought,
7:42
well, you know, why not? I did it
7:44
and I realized
7:47
me, who doesn't think of themselves as somebody
7:49
who is mystical or could, was able to.
7:52
And not only was I able to, but I was offering
7:54
my friends and the people around me. I would
7:57
read anybody I could for free just because I
7:59
was like so excited. and they were freaking
8:01
out. They were crying, they were like, how do you know that? And
8:03
I could tell them about their kids and their family. And
8:05
then one day I just taught my friend on a whim. I
8:08
mean, I was just like, I don't know, we were at my
8:10
summer house and we were a little bored and I was
8:12
like, let me try this on you. And
8:14
so I did, and then I started
8:16
teaching more people and
8:19
I realized, oh my God,
8:21
like I can kind of teach anybody. And
8:23
then honestly, Dave, there was
8:25
this men's group. I
8:27
have a dear friend and he was running this men's
8:30
group and he likes the stuff,
8:33
but the men's group was kind of around productivity
8:35
and exercise and it was a bunch of guys
8:37
and goal oriented. And he's a trader on Wall
8:39
Street and he's like, we're gonna blow their minds
8:41
and bring you into, we're not gonna tell them.
8:44
We're just gonna surprise them. And I
8:46
thought, oh God, this is gonna be awful. I
8:48
mean, it's sort of non-spiritual guys, like
8:50
they're investment bankers and accountants and lawyers
8:52
and business guys, like nothing wrong with
8:54
it. But I started getting nervous that maybe
8:57
I was over my skis a bit and
9:00
it wasn't gonna happen. But it
9:02
was 40 guys and all 40 accessed the
9:04
Akashic records. Wow,
9:06
these were like thinker types, like not
9:09
spiritual guys. No, dude,
9:11
these were dudes. Like they were dude crying,
9:13
they were dude freaking out, they were sweating,
9:15
they're like, there's no way I'm gonna do
9:17
this. And all 40 of them did it
9:20
and not only did it, but they, most
9:22
of them wrote me and said it was
9:24
one of the most exceptional experiences. And
9:26
what that did for me is that I had this moment of
9:29
like, oh shit, we're
9:31
all able to do this. Listen,
9:34
you walk up to a piano, you can
9:36
touch the keys. Are you
9:38
gonna be good? I don't know, put
9:40
the time in. Not everybody
9:42
has the talent, so I think talent and
9:44
time are important with anything we do. But
9:47
I want people to
9:50
know that it's accessible, right?
9:52
It's not some mystical, wooey,
9:54
weird thing. I
9:56
know it sounds like it is, but I have now
9:58
taught thousands and thousands and thousands. thousands and thousands
10:00
of people. And I mean, I have not
10:02
failed yet. And
10:05
again, it's like saying I got
10:07
a tennis ball. Can I hit a ball? Sure,
10:09
are you going to Wimbledon? Probably not. Probably
10:12
not, not everybody's great. I happen to
10:14
be pretty talented and I'm extremely tenacious.
10:16
I put in thousands of hours. So
10:20
what makes somebody qualified? Anybody can
10:23
do it. But like piano, you gotta
10:25
practice and probably there's talent,
10:27
right? Like with everything. Yeah.
10:30
It's funny, many, many years ago,
10:34
there probably was no juggling. And
10:37
then someone figured out that you could juggle
10:39
and it looked like a total miracle. And
10:43
they probably got burned at the stake for a while for doing
10:45
it. And then eventually, you
10:47
know, another 10 generations later juggling
10:50
was allowed and someone taught someone else how to do it and
10:52
it spread. So you can say it was a mystical power or
10:54
just something people could do that we didn't know we could do. Right,
10:57
like cell phones, right? Nobody would have thought
10:59
30 years ago we'd be
11:01
interconnected like this. And so. Some
11:04
people would have. Like
11:08
a lot of people don't know. Some of my
11:10
favorite stories, this is also more metaphysical stuff. We've
11:13
all heard that in the old, like
11:16
the Western part of the US, that
11:19
the Native Americans would use smoke
11:21
signals to communicate.
11:25
But as a network engineering guy from Silicon
11:27
Valley, there is not enough bandwidth to communicate
11:29
anything in puffs of smoke. You couldn't even
11:31
do like Morse code in an effective way.
11:34
So we just sort of accepted
11:36
it without thinking. But when you
11:39
ask them, they're like, oh yeah, we
11:41
would light the fires to tell the other
11:43
guys down the road, whatever, to tune in.
11:46
So then they would pay attention and then
11:48
they would connect to the other person's
11:50
consciousness and know whatever the message was. And
11:53
it was just a reminder basically to go into
11:55
a mild meditative state so you can receive information.
11:58
Nice. So there
12:01
are these built-in abilities. And when you
12:03
say you've taught people to do this, and it's just
12:05
a skill, I believe that because I learned
12:08
an ancient Chinese method once from
12:11
a guy who's like, I'm the 20th generation of this.
12:13
And it's something anyone can do, just my family hid
12:15
it from everyone because they gave us a unique advantage
12:17
and I decided to put it out into the world.
12:20
So it was something that's
12:22
spookily useful. And
12:25
then we've had what, Lisa Williams has
12:27
been on the show. She's taught 40,000 people on the
12:29
channel. Some of them are better than
12:31
others. So bottom line is maybe you're listening to
12:33
the show, maybe you've listened for
12:35
10 years and you've turned on your mitochondria
12:37
all the way. They have more powers. They're
12:40
called the Yogic cities, S-I-D-H-I.
12:43
These are documented abilities of our
12:46
human hardware that can happen,
12:48
they're just rare. So
12:51
this is one of those things where I've
12:53
run across it in different lineages that I've
12:56
studied and I've worked
12:58
with the Akashic Records directly, especially
13:00
in very altered states without
13:03
plant medicines just at 40 years then with neurofeedback.
13:06
I've gone really, really deep and had communication. So
13:08
this is like a, maybe
13:10
Carl Jung's collective consciousness. Do you think the
13:12
Akashic Records are tied into that? Are they
13:15
the same thing? Yeah,
13:17
I mean, in fact, I've been going in the
13:20
Akashic Records to ask questions. You can find
13:22
out about you or
13:24
you can ask these really beautiful metaphysical
13:26
philosophical questions. My first love
13:28
was philosophy. I went
13:31
to undergrad and graduate school. I
13:33
thought I was gonna be a professor. I was
13:35
at Tufts and I hated academia, but I
13:37
love the topic. So I'd be going
13:39
in the Akashic Records and asking, just
13:42
these philosophical questions and I asked, what
13:44
are the Akashic Records? And
13:47
I wanna hear from them. It's not a very
13:49
documented space. Edgar
13:51
Cayce went in and he asked all
13:53
these questions about medical stuff, but not too many
13:56
people have done this sort of
13:58
broader conversation. And
14:00
that's what I'm excited by and it's
14:02
it's a grid. It's a grid of
14:04
information that We
14:07
are all interconnected within right so
14:10
the Akashic Records is In
14:13
again, everything is like something because I really
14:15
don't think we have the vocabulary At
14:18
this point in history to fully understand
14:21
what this is I
14:23
think we may at some point quantum physics
14:25
and all that seems to be I'm not
14:28
great with quantum physics But it seems to be picking
14:31
up on some of the same language But
14:33
it's an it's an energetic space It's a
14:35
set in a vibration and it's it's
14:37
an endless grid that we're all interconnected
14:40
in Where that exists
14:42
and and all that is still to
14:44
be I think figured out by some
14:46
brilliant scientists at some point Because
14:49
I'm really lazy and brilliant scientists are expensive.
14:51
I just asked Okay
14:57
Just right now what what do you think
14:59
it said? God, I
15:01
don't know why there's so much out there
15:03
about this Topic
15:05
that I find not so great.
15:07
So I'm curious tell me so
15:09
number one. I'm pretty good at prompt engineering
15:12
I I'm running something called the Apollo group
15:15
with fish and lackey on E and With
15:18
the vene Jane, so it's a very small
15:20
mastermind $100,000 mastermind
15:22
for for entrepreneurs who want to work with us directly
15:25
So we've done some AI training based
15:28
on vision's platform and so I've kind of gone
15:30
deep on prompt engineering so I wrote the
15:32
right one, but I'm
15:34
like, I don't care if you think it's not real. Tell
15:36
me the science anyway, and Here's
15:38
what it says and these are actually answers I probably would have
15:40
thought of and you would have thought of as well and for
15:42
our listeners I'm gonna run through some of these I want you
15:45
to to say these are good or bad and Can
15:47
you go into the Akashic records and ask if these are right
15:49
or not? As
15:52
we speak now, yeah, why not? It's
15:55
a slow process. I know people want
15:57
me to do that
16:00
but channeling is
16:03
like an easy sort of
16:05
flow. This is an
16:08
hour to get a real good question answered.
16:10
Yeah, we did a session ahead
16:13
of time because I basically want
16:15
to see if you're a full crap because I've
16:17
had a Kajuk readings from people who are 80% ego and 20% of
16:19
Kajuk and I've had some
16:21
from people who are really just tuning in and
16:23
new stuff they shouldn't know. And
16:27
it probably varies by day but I was like,
16:29
okay, you're the real deal and I have enough
16:31
of an experience to know the real deal versus
16:34
not. So what it says
16:36
is quantum entanglement and information
16:38
theory is one example,
16:41
which is the quantum mechanics thing and I would have
16:43
called out information theory and certainly quantum and you did.
16:46
The second one is the holographic principle,
16:49
the universe is information. Stan Groff
16:51
has been on the show who
16:53
wrote a book called the holographic
16:56
universe, I think or holotropic universe
16:58
maybe. Yeah, holographic I think. Yeah
17:00
and he's I've actually done breathing
17:02
up a breath work workshop, co-led
17:05
it with him and his team for
17:07
a group of my coaches. So the
17:09
idea there is that the universe is a hologram which means you
17:11
can have a tiny piece of it that contains the entire thing
17:14
if you just not look at it.
17:16
Then funny enough, Chachi B.D.
17:18
says collective unconsciousness and archetypes and Carl
17:20
called out Carl Jung, which we don't
17:23
talk about. It's quite listening. And
17:26
then it says theoretical physics and multiverse theory,
17:29
which a lot of people have heard of at least if you see
17:31
Dr. Strange. And then simulation hypothesis,
17:33
which Elon has talked about, I've talked
17:35
about it, Zuckerberg has talked about it,
17:37
you know, are we living in a
17:40
simulation? Have you ever asked the
17:42
Akashic masters and teachers whether
17:45
we're living in a simulation? Yeah,
17:47
I mean, I've asked all of these
17:49
things and it's tough because the
17:51
answer is pretty much that we're our
17:53
brains are just not quite there to
17:55
really understand the depths of it. If I'm
17:57
being honest, it's not a non judgmental space. ever
18:00
experience critique or judgment, and
18:03
there's no right or wrong kind of energy to it, but
18:06
they're definitely not impressed with the human
18:08
mind. And so they try to
18:11
give it to us in a way that at
18:13
this point in history we can comprehend it. For
18:15
sure, I've heard the holographic universe, for sure it's
18:17
been sort of a quantum experience,
18:20
but it's like that, it's always, it's like this,
18:22
it's like that, it's like this, and it's not
18:24
100% what it is that
18:26
we're saying to date. It's sort of like that.
18:29
So I'm working really hard to get it out
18:31
of the Akashic Records. I've been channeling it for
18:33
the last few months bit by bit
18:35
so I can get each part as clean as
18:37
I can, but it's taking
18:39
a lot of time. I mean
18:41
a lot of time. It's really
18:43
complicated, but yes, I have heard
18:46
those things. It's
18:49
interesting to put science behind it, and one thing
18:51
that impressed me with your work is you
18:54
went out and you got readings from different people to see if
18:56
they agreed, which is very
18:59
scientific. And I do the same thing. I
19:01
honestly think you shouldn't trust any psychic or
19:04
fortune teller or Akashic Records
19:06
reader unless you've validated them
19:08
and the way you validate is three
19:11
people all say the same thing and they don't know each
19:13
other. There's a great likelihood that it's
19:15
probably real. And the skeptics are going, yeah,
19:17
but they keep you like reading your pulse rate
19:19
and the dilation of your left eye and
19:21
yes, there are mentalists who do that stuff, but
19:23
those are the kind of questions you ask.
19:26
No, and Dave, honestly, I was telling some
19:28
friends, I want to move in a modern
19:30
minimalist department on the lake. That's
19:33
super random, right? And I don't even know why I
19:35
was saying it. I went into my first reading. This
19:37
lady looks at me, never seen her before. I told
19:40
like three friends that she asked me
19:42
my name. She reads some sentences. She goes in
19:44
my Akashic field and she goes, I see a
19:46
modern minimalist department on the lake. And
19:48
I mean, I was like, wait, what? And
19:51
it was like, come on, totally
19:53
random, totally random, right? And then I
19:55
the second thing I did, I was in New York
19:57
City and I bought this Tibetan bowl on the street.
20:00
in New York City. In the second reading, I
20:02
was in Manhattan. I bought it with my
20:04
partner. We were sitting there in a
20:07
hotel, just purchased the day
20:09
before. And the first thing she says is,
20:11
I see a Tibetan bowl. And I'm like,
20:13
what the fuck? And she starts talking about
20:15
this bowl and explains it in detail. So
20:17
it's like that all the time, all
20:19
the time. There's just, I told
20:21
this lady once in a reading, I was trying
20:23
to compare her mind to a tape
20:26
recorder. And I said, you know those tape
20:28
recorders, the ones that you got
20:31
in the basement in a desk in
20:33
a corner where you pull it out
20:35
and you push
20:37
the button and the tape is like that old school
20:39
tape and the reel is really worn down. I'm like,
20:41
the story you're telling yourself is like that. It's a
20:43
worn down. You got to just take that thing, put
20:45
it back in the basement, put it in a desk.
20:47
And she looks at me and says, you have no idea what
20:50
you just said. And I'm like, I don't, I've never met her.
20:52
And she said, yesterday, I found a tape recorder
20:55
in a desk in the corner in the basement.
20:57
I took it out. I showed my son that
20:59
I had this old eight track tape thing. And
21:01
then I put it back in the corner in
21:03
the basement in the cabinet. And I
21:05
mean, I don't think there's a reading that
21:08
happens where people aren't in this sort of
21:10
shock and awe around it. And
21:12
so it's definitely, listen, I have a lot
21:14
of things to do with my life. I
21:17
don't have an interest in Google searching. People
21:19
are looking for their eye twitches. I mean, that's a
21:21
waste of my time too. I'm
21:23
only doing this because it's really freaking cool.
21:25
And people are getting all this value and
21:27
I got value. And not only did I
21:29
go around the country and just call random
21:32
people, because that was such a pain in
21:34
the ass, I would literally try it
21:36
over and over and over. But then when I
21:38
started training people, I used the same question on
21:40
the first 200 people I trained
21:43
at asking the exact same question, random
21:45
people. And I got the same, I
21:47
mean, different metaphor, slightly different languaging, but
21:49
the same answer would come through over
21:51
and over because I
21:53
was skeptical. My dad's a world
21:56
famous physician. I didn't grow up
21:58
with a religion. This stuff was
22:01
not accessible
22:03
to me in a like, this makes
22:06
sense for me, or, or, I
22:08
don't know, I felt very fraudulent a lot thinking
22:10
about it. But it just has
22:12
proven to be so true so
22:14
many times that I was like,
22:16
you know what, it's really helpful to
22:18
my life. And it's
22:21
like this accelerator to
22:23
personal growth. So why would I not use
22:25
this? I mean, I don't get it. I
22:28
don't think anybody does. But who cares? Like,
22:30
I don't understand love exactly. Like, we don't
22:32
know why we fall in love. It's
22:35
a strange thing. I still think it's
22:37
worth participating in. And art, I mean, art's
22:39
sort of odd. Why do we care about
22:41
it? But I love it.
22:44
So it's worthy, right? I mean, not
22:46
everything has to be perfectly
22:48
logical to me all the time. So if
22:50
it if it has value, right, and this
22:52
does for me. Love
22:55
that perspective. You kind
22:57
of remind me of Julie Ryan, who has
23:00
been on the show as well. She's a
23:03
professional psychic, has a big radio show,
23:05
and we've been friends for
23:07
many years. And she has some
23:10
like seven or eight big patents in med tech
23:12
and was a very successful entrepreneur. Like, look, I
23:14
can do this. And I've been
23:16
to all kinds of people have these
23:18
things. A lot of them wouldn't talk
23:21
about it because well, throughout
23:23
most of most of recorded history, if you could do stuff
23:25
like this, they would burn you at the stake. Right.
23:29
So all the people around today,
23:31
who have these abilities, we've
23:33
kind of multi generationally learned to be a
23:35
little cautious about it. But
23:39
they honestly like I
23:42
was a healthcare tech entrepreneur, I built this
23:45
incredible system for chronic illness, I sat
23:47
with some of the best people on
23:49
the planet on different disease states. And
23:52
we came together from Stanford and Harvard and all
23:54
the to get the guidelines out
23:56
of these guys on diseases. It was not
23:59
black and white. It was not so
24:01
scientific. It was definitely a bit of an
24:03
art form to it all. It
24:05
was an awakening for me that science
24:07
is not as exacting as everybody would
24:09
like to think. It's true for
24:11
a period of time. Some of it is
24:14
very consistent. Sometimes it's a bit of a like,
24:18
and so I hear you on it
24:20
and it's not that
24:22
popular. When I started to do
24:25
this, I'm gay and
24:27
I came out in the 90s which was pretty
24:29
brutal. But honestly, coming out
24:31
as spiritual was way more uncomfortable.
24:34
I would go to my friends and I'm like, I
24:37
think I found this thing that I'm going
24:39
to start doing. Because if
24:41
it's not so proven, people seem
24:43
to have such an
24:45
emotional reaction. To be honest,
24:47
when I really shared this, I
24:50
found a lot of people were really
24:52
excited that I was willing to. Because
24:55
science doesn't always work for all
24:57
answers in life. Organized religion, people
25:00
are struggling within certain ways. I think if
25:02
you're not a die-hard of
25:04
those two things, there's this middle
25:07
ground world where I love science and
25:09
I like parts of religion, but I also like
25:11
to explore everything else. I think
25:13
a lot more people are like that, but
25:15
there's this strange feeling that you're not allowed
25:17
to just dabble around and have fun. Yeah.
25:22
The playfulness sometimes is missing. I'll
25:26
just say there's a lot of people that figure out
25:28
they can do some stuff. Then there's a lot of
25:30
different flavors of it and there's still a lot of,
25:33
I'm just going to call it skepticism and
25:35
doubt. You see people who
25:37
have a substantial amount of career attainment,
25:39
then they come out, even
25:41
come out as having
25:43
psychic powers, not the other coming out that you're
25:46
well familiar with. Even
25:48
what's his name? The
25:51
guy who did Waldorf schools, Rudolf
25:54
Steiner. He also invented
25:56
a major form of
25:58
regenerative ag called- biodynamic.
26:02
And he didn't talk about this stuff when he was
26:04
young. But he could see, he could
26:06
always see patterns of life and all. And he ended
26:08
up writing a lot of this stuff in his 40s.
26:10
He said, all right, fine, I'm ready. And just started
26:12
pouring out a major school of agriculture
26:14
based on seasonal cycles that no one else could
26:16
see in a way of raising kids to be
26:19
emotionally intact and all this stuff. And so if
26:21
you're listening to this going, what the heck Dave,
26:23
why are you talking about all this? I thought
26:25
you were a biohacker. I am. You turn
26:27
your mitochondria on all the way. You
26:30
edit the settings in your
26:32
operating system so you're not tweaked all the
26:35
time by dumb environmental variables. And
26:38
then you have all this energy left and
26:40
you focus it on stuff, you might be
26:42
surprised at what you can do. So I
26:44
like finding people who stumble onto this one
26:46
way or another, which is why I'm having
26:48
this interview. All right.
26:51
How long does it take to teach someone
26:53
to do this? Yeah,
26:56
I started this class. Well, I started teaching
26:58
people and then I couldn't
27:00
keep up anymore. So I started teaching it at the
27:02
little soul school and I have this class once a
27:04
month. It's 90 minutes. I
27:07
get everybody in the Akashic records in
27:09
90 minutes. Are you good at it? No.
27:13
Again, you're going to walk up to that piano.
27:15
You could touch those keys. It's
27:17
not music, right? It takes time. You've got
27:19
to practice the chords. You've got to put
27:21
the energy into it. And like I said,
27:24
there's some talent, but to actually just access
27:26
the space, I do
27:28
this monthly class for 90 minutes.
27:30
It's 20 bucks. I have a free one as well.
27:33
If you're super skeptical and you don't want to drop
27:35
the 20 bucks, you can come. For 20 bucks,
27:37
you learn to tap into the Akashic
27:39
records. Yeah. It's like one month of
27:42
chat GPT and you get lifetime access. Yeah.
27:45
Yeah. And if you want to try to... You
27:47
ever think of hiring someone from Google to help you
27:49
with the business model? It's 20 bucks
27:51
upfront and five bucks a month forever. Just because
27:53
it's me. Yeah.
28:02
I am laughing, but it wouldn't surprise me if someone out there
28:04
already thought of that, and I don't think you should do that.
28:07
No. No, I
28:09
mean, listen, I'm like a big fan of
28:11
entrepreneurship. I love it. But I
28:14
think the space has been there for thousands of years, and
28:16
it's not mine, right? And
28:18
I just want everybody to check it out. And
28:20
I know you're joking around. That would be a
28:22
joke. Totally. Totally. Like telling people,
28:24
hey, I'll let you keep breathing for only $5 a month.
28:26
That's right. I'm not going to be there, at least for
28:29
now, unless maybe one of the large
28:31
pharma companies has their way about it.
28:34
So for listeners,
28:36
it's Laura Ko, l-a-u-r-a-c-o-e.com. I have
28:39
not done her Akashic Records training,
28:41
so I cannot vouch or not
28:43
vouch for it. But
28:45
I have other ways I do it when I go
28:48
to 40 years' end. So I know of what she
28:50
speaks, but I have my own ways of getting there.
28:54
And I don't rely on them that frequently. In
28:57
fact, what I found is that I'm
29:00
capable of doing some
29:02
accounting tasks. I have a
29:04
degree in that stuff from Wharton. I just hate it. And
29:09
I don't hate doing Akashic Records, but I'm
29:11
not particularly skilled. I can build shelves. They
29:13
just might be a little crooked. So
29:17
I would rather have expert help in
29:19
building shelves. So I want to go
29:21
really deep on something. I'm happy to
29:23
call you or one of the other handfuls of people
29:25
that I know have a really tight beam access to
29:27
these things. And they're just more efficient because if you
29:30
go there all the time, you're going to be good
29:32
at it. It's like hiring
29:34
a backwoods tracker who lives in the backwoods versus
29:36
the guy who goes hunting three times a year.
29:38
Like, which one's going to know the terrain? I
29:41
feel like someone who does all the time is
29:43
good. Yeah. Yeah. What's
29:45
the craziest request you've ever received
29:47
to ask for the Akashic Records?
29:50
Or ask of the Akashic Records? I
29:55
mean, people
29:57
mostly ask the same question. questions, right?
29:59
What's my purpose? Why am I here?
30:02
How do I find love? Like most
30:04
people want to and what do I
30:06
heal, right? Like those are the things most people
30:08
are interested in. But my friend called me one
30:10
day and she's like, I lost my wallet. And
30:13
I was like, well, I'm so sorry to hear that.
30:15
And she said, well, can you open up my Akashic
30:17
records? I was like, I don't think
30:19
that's what this is for. I think this is really
30:21
about like growth and learning and I and I have
30:23
some reverence to it. So
30:26
anyways, she was desperate and
30:28
she's a good friend. So I was like, all right,
30:30
whatever. My friends for a
30:32
while were like, can you pop the records open every five
30:35
minutes once they got a taste, I could do this,
30:37
they wanted to ask me thousands of things. I was
30:39
like, we got to stop this. But at that point,
30:41
I was willing, I went in, I saw
30:44
this pile of clothing and I saw her
30:46
her wallet was stuffed in there and she grabbed the
30:48
clothing, put it in her hamper. And I was like,
30:50
I think it's in your hamper. But maybe I'm making
30:52
this up. I don't know. I don't think the
30:55
records store wallets. So anyways, um,
30:57
I said, you got to you got to really empty
30:59
out the hamper because it's stuffed in there. So
31:02
she doesn't call me back. And I think it
31:05
didn't work. Makes sense. Three hours
31:07
later, she calls me she's like, found my wallet. I'm like,
31:09
where was it? She said it was in my hamper exactly
31:11
where you said and I'm like, why did it take you
31:13
three hours? She's like, well, I didn't listen to
31:15
you. I didn't. I just
31:17
looked superficially and I emptied it out in frustration.
31:20
It was really stuffed in there. And then
31:22
my partner at the time heard of it.
31:25
She had lost her wallet, her credit card
31:27
and like a few days later and I'm
31:29
like, oh, come on. I'm not a party
31:31
trick. This is crazy. But I checked again
31:33
and her credit card was between the seat
31:35
and the glove compartment. And I'm
31:38
like, you got to move your chair forward. And she took
31:40
a photo, sent it to me, pushed her
31:42
chair forward and it was it was right
31:44
there. But that really got me thinking, Dave,
31:46
because that meant to me that
31:49
this space is not just some kind of
31:51
like list
31:54
of things that I'm aware of. Maybe some
31:56
way that like I'm tapping into people's
31:58
minds, their memories. They
32:00
didn't know it was there, right? Your
32:03
credit card falls out of your pocket in your car
32:05
You're not you're not aware of that
32:07
right this idea that every thought feeling
32:10
in action is stored Sort
32:12
of really settled in for me in
32:14
that moment, you know, you've got credit
32:16
cards. You got wallets You got everything
32:18
they talk about the book of life
32:20
in the Old Testament New Testament, right?
32:23
Like that there's this book of your
32:25
soul's life so it's
32:27
not a new idea, but It's
32:30
pretty mind-boggling to me to think
32:33
that there's Somewhere that all
32:35
this information can be can reside
32:37
and we can open that up
32:39
and find it It
32:41
it is mind-boggling and and certainly
32:44
just intuitively knowing where something is
32:46
is Called
32:48
a parlor trick, but it's something that people
32:50
with a just knowing this I
32:53
can have and and I've come to
32:55
believe over the years that a lot
32:59
of what gets us in trouble as human beings
33:01
is just that Our
33:03
biology our bodies we already know it but
33:06
then our brain convinces us that we don't
33:08
know it so we do it the hard
33:10
way because we learn to do it the hard way a long time
33:12
ago and So
33:15
there are times when you just know something and then you go nah
33:17
and Then ten hours later go Scott.
33:19
I didn't have to do that ten hours I have
33:22
to do that. So one of my my work in
33:24
last few years has been Around
33:26
overcoming my internal resistance to just getting it
33:28
done fast Yeah,
33:31
I mean right like what for a lot
33:33
of creative entrepreneurial people all that stuff It's
33:35
like we have these moments where it just
33:37
comes to you, right? You're like taking
33:39
a walk or you're trying to resolve
33:42
a problem and then you take some space or something
33:44
and then all of a sudden It hits you. What
33:46
are we saying? What does that even mean? There's it
33:48
all of a sudden just hit me It just came
33:50
to me. Well, it's usually when I'm in the shower
33:52
or going for a walk or something where I'm not
33:54
thinking as hard so if I'm using
33:56
my brain and I'm
33:58
I'm trying to get there and I'm
34:00
not getting there and then I relax and all of
34:03
a sudden it just shows up. Where
34:05
did it come from? Right? So it's
34:07
a definite conversation I have with
34:09
myself all the time about
34:12
trusting the intangible
34:16
experiences of life a little bit more. And
34:19
as I've learned to let go of my brain
34:21
being the only place that I consult for
34:23
information, I have definitely
34:25
quadrupled my productivity, my happiness,
34:28
the outcomes are better. There's
34:31
an incredible serendipitous quality to
34:33
my life when I let
34:35
that be true. Right? That
34:38
sort of, oh my God, I was just thinking about
34:40
you end to end, like has gone up and up
34:43
because I pay attention to it. I trust it a
34:45
little more and I let
34:47
myself follow it instead of like, you know,
34:49
I used to be a white knuckling, thinking
34:51
pro and con spreadsheet,
34:53
ask 50 friends, consult everybody
34:56
kind of person and it's just exhausting. Right?
34:59
Because how do you get to the
35:01
decision and the decision comes from somewhere else,
35:03
right? A deep within knowing or something like
35:05
that. Time to leave a relationship, time to
35:08
make a change, time to leave my job,
35:10
time to explore something new. We
35:13
have this knowing, right? That's how
35:15
we make decisions eventually. I mean,
35:17
some people always stressfully
35:20
use hyper,
35:24
tax the mind, but
35:26
it's an exhaustive process
35:28
because, you know, when
35:30
you weigh things, you think, well, there's this many on
35:33
this side and this many on this side, but it's
35:35
not really like that. I mean, some something
35:37
is a much more important thing
35:40
than the other 20 things. Sitting
35:43
around analyzing endlessly, it's
35:46
not clear like where to go and as
35:48
an entrepreneur, you have to trust your instincts,
35:50
you know? What does that mean? Trusting
35:53
my instincts is something again,
35:56
intangible. I
35:58
think this stuff has been there forever. forever.
36:01
Your intuition, your trusting
36:03
your gut, right? We have this. We
36:05
even say, oh my God, the party
36:07
was so fun until so and so
36:09
walked in the room. That person's energy
36:11
sucks. Or this building, I was like
36:13
at this party and the energy was
36:15
amazing until this and then, you
36:18
know, this happened and the energy was
36:20
terrible. We already have this experience, right?
36:22
Like we all know that guy or
36:24
that woman who walks in a space
36:26
and we can just feel how they
36:30
suck, right? They like bring the room
36:32
quote down. We say that stuff. So
36:35
what do we mean when we talk
36:37
in these ways? We have an intangible
36:39
understanding of it and it's okay
36:41
to me. I don't really know how to
36:43
language it because we don't have the science for
36:45
it, but I do believe in that
36:48
a lot more. I think the brain's great. I still
36:50
use it once I've come up with this intuitive
36:53
understanding or have that
36:56
gut feeling. I studied
36:58
authenticity for a decade before I got into the
37:00
Akashic realm. It's what I studied in grad school.
37:03
What does it mean to be authentic?
37:05
That's the weirdest idea ever. I check
37:07
in with myself to what is true
37:09
within me. Where? I mean, point to
37:11
it. We say mean,
37:13
we point to our chest. I'm not
37:16
in my chest. That makes no sense,
37:18
right? So all over our life, we
37:20
talk in these ways and this
37:22
is just a more organized
37:25
expression of that that
37:27
is consistent, reliable. You
37:30
don't have to meditate. You don't have
37:32
to go for a walk. I just
37:34
read some sentences and bam, I get
37:36
this megaphone
37:42
of authentic instinctual
37:45
advice that hits me
37:48
as absolutely true for
37:50
me every time. Why wouldn't you try
37:52
it at least just to see? If
37:55
it doesn't work for you, great. I'm
37:57
not here to sell my own stuff. Try it anywhere. I
38:01
find it extremely intriguing, yeah. What
38:04
are the things you can't ask? The things that don't work?
38:07
Yeah, it's easier
38:09
to say what doesn't
38:11
work because there's so much
38:13
you can ask. So you cannot ask about
38:16
right or wrong. People say, am I my
38:18
right path? That implies
38:20
there's a wrong path to life. Or is
38:22
this the right time to leave my partner?
38:25
The Akashic realm does not work off
38:27
of judgment. Right or wrong, shoulds. And
38:30
it's a little predictive of time, but
38:33
it's more the highest probability towards a
38:35
future outcome. It's not like 100% this
38:39
will happen at this time. So
38:41
those are really the only things you can't
38:43
ask. You
38:45
can even ask about people in your life.
38:47
Somebody once hired me. She
38:50
coaches people, and she wanted a deeper
38:52
insight into her clients. She just gave
38:54
me the first name of each client,
38:56
and I explained them down to the
38:58
last detail and what works for them,
39:00
what doesn't, what they're struggling with. She's
39:02
like, oh my God, you're on point
39:04
with each person. So you can go
39:07
almost anywhere except those areas. That
39:10
does not work at all. And it's for your
39:12
highest good in this moment. So I do wanna say it's a
39:16
lot of content in this Akashic
39:18
realm. So you are receiving
39:20
what it is that, you
39:22
know we think we need something, but in fact, we
39:26
need something else. Like you have a friend who's
39:29
always dating the same person or leaves a job
39:31
and takes the same job. They're just repeating themselves.
39:33
And they have this idea in their mind, like
39:35
you know that they just want the answer in
39:38
a certain way. The Akashic realm gives you what
39:40
is most valuable for you to move forward. Sometimes
39:42
it's not what you want to hear, right? You're
39:44
like, come on, just tell me what are
39:47
the next steps to opening my flower shop? Or
39:49
I just wanna like leave my partner,
39:51
just tell me this person sucks in these ways or
39:54
something. You can't push
39:56
into the Akashic realm. It gives you what is
39:59
true. truly most
40:01
valuable if you're willing to listen in
40:04
this moment in time. So there's some
40:06
nuance and interpretation, but you can't say,
40:08
when am I gonna die? What's the
40:10
best for this? What's the worst for that? But
40:13
you could frame it in a different way. Yeah,
40:17
yeah, you can say what's for my
40:19
highest good in this moment, what's not, yeah,
40:22
that kind of thing. Or if you're trying
40:24
to look at two employees to hire, you
40:27
could see, you could
40:30
say, well, which of these two employees,
40:34
if I hire them, it's gonna create the
40:37
best results for the company, or maybe best be a
40:39
problem. Say the highest and best, or you could say
40:41
the most money. And then it's likely
40:44
to give you the answer, right? You
40:46
know, they don't really specifically reply to money like
40:48
10,000 to 20,000, but they will say, how
40:53
is this most beneficial? Is this going to
40:55
help us grow? How could we accelerate, stuff
40:58
like that. So you can reframe the questions
41:00
pretty easily to get to, you
41:02
know, mostly the point you're looking for. What
41:05
about things like muscle testing? Couldn't you just
41:07
do a muscle testing thing so people use
41:09
finger strength or arm strength to
41:11
ask the same questions? Are we tapping into the same
41:13
field or is that different knowledge? There's
41:16
a lot of ways to access this field. I
41:19
have this one system, there's other systems out
41:21
there. I find this one really simple because
41:23
you just read a few sentences and it's
41:25
like good to go. You
41:28
don't need to do much, you don't have to touch people. But
41:30
yeah, absolutely. It's done
41:33
in many, many ways. Some people do it
41:35
through deep meditations, people do it through psychedelic
41:38
experiences. You know, it's been around a
41:40
long time. Hypnosis
41:43
has been a very popular way to
41:45
access this area. So
41:49
yeah, I mean, I don't know a lot about
41:51
muscle testing in terms of the Akashic
41:53
realm. So I'm not sure
41:55
how to answer on that specific one, but there's
41:57
other ways to get that. What are the few
41:59
sentences? Can you tell us just on the show? Sure.
42:03
Like, log in and do your free course.
42:05
But you guys should donate. loraco.com. Is
42:07
that something you can just show listeners right
42:09
now? Yeah. You want me to
42:11
just read it? Yeah. So what
42:13
do we do? Close our eyes, mumble
42:16
or something, and then we say this? You
42:18
don't even have to be that disciplined. Some
42:20
people say it in 20 seconds, super fast,
42:23
eyes open. Some people sit with it. No
42:25
trade. You have to jump on
42:27
one foot, spin around, open the four directions. None of
42:29
that? Nothing. It's
42:31
super easy. It's
42:33
just more of when you read
42:36
it, you have to know where the
42:38
subtle energy starts to show up. It's
42:40
a little bit new. It's a little
42:42
bit subtle. And so that's
42:44
more challenging than reading this. But
42:46
yeah, the sentence is we open ourselves to the light.
42:49
And with this light, we open ourselves to our truth. And
42:52
with this light, we open ourselves to our soul's
42:54
purpose. And with this light,
42:56
we open ourselves to be guided towards
42:58
our highest good and the highest
43:01
good of those we love. And
43:03
then like a cell phone, you have the
43:05
same cell phone, just different cell phone numbers.
43:08
With this, you just swap out the person's legal
43:10
name. And so I'd say, and
43:12
so Laura is given the truth to best
43:14
serve her on her healing journey into
43:16
the love and acceptance that is most beneficial
43:19
for her in this moment. I
43:21
say it two more times with my full legal
43:23
name silently to myself. So I won't do that.
43:26
And then after I say it silently with the full
43:28
legal name, I finish
43:30
with and with this light
43:32
and guidance, we unlock the energy field
43:34
of Laura to receive the record
43:36
of her soul. That's it. You're
43:39
done. You're in. And then when you're
43:41
finished asking questions, it helps
43:43
to get quiet. It helps to close your
43:45
eyes, to move the energy. It's
43:48
subtle. But then you read a
43:50
closing at the end, a couple of sentences
43:52
and you're done. Wow,
43:56
it seems pretty simple. So if you're listening to the
43:58
show, you can... You can
44:00
give it a try. Is listening
44:02
to some kind of good music going to help
44:04
like Metallica or something? Um
44:09
I again, um The
44:11
practice of getting good is you focus
44:13
on more of the top of your head your forehead
44:16
It's in this free key plan if you want to
44:18
check it out But once you find it, you
44:20
know when you're falling asleep at night Right
44:23
and and you lay down in your bed Let's
44:25
just say you were trying to talk to somebody
44:27
who's never fallen asleep Never
44:30
ever and you have to say what is
44:32
falling asleep quickly? What is I knocked out?
44:35
What is I was in and out of
44:37
sleep all night? I was in
44:39
a light sleep. I was in a heavy sleep I
44:42
woke up and then I went back to I
44:44
mean all of these things are things we understand
44:46
about the process of falling asleep The
44:48
akashic realm is a bit of a muscle.
44:50
It's like an experience that I can't Explain
44:53
you have to try it, but it's like
44:55
a heaviness And you find it
44:57
and once you find it you start
44:59
to learn how to speak using this This
45:04
energy this this feeling
45:06
and and it's pretty easy
45:08
after you kind of get comfortable knowing
45:12
That's where it is. And that's how I locate it
45:14
But that's the part that takes the time to be honest
45:16
because your ego gets in the way you say oh my
45:19
god Is it me? Oh my god. Is that me? Oh,
45:21
how do I know it's not me right like people will
45:23
get all stressed out about it So
45:25
the quicker you drop your ego and stop worrying
45:27
about it Like imagine going to sleep and every time
45:30
you start falling asleep, you're like am I asleep? Did
45:32
I really fall asleep with I am I sure I
45:34
fell asleep, right? I mean you just
45:36
go to sleep like you you lay in a little
45:38
ball and this weird thing happens where
45:40
you drift somewhere, right? It's
45:43
a pretty bizarre experience It's
45:47
so funny At 40
45:49
years has end when i'm teaching these these
45:51
altered states things The the
45:53
biggest thing of all if you pop into any
45:55
one of the new states Including
45:58
if you're seeing it past life you're doing a records
46:00
work or just go into the reset mode and to
46:02
go in kind of into your own operating system to
46:04
be less triggered by stuff. The
46:06
first time you get there, you're like, I did it. I did
46:08
it. And as soon as you say that you're out and like,
46:10
damn it. So it's really a big
46:13
challenge to learn how to be non-reactive to a
46:15
new state, to just be like, just
46:18
curiosity. And that was about
46:20
two weeks of 10 to 12 hours a
46:22
day of meditating with electrodes on my head
46:25
to figure that one out. And
46:27
now I can teach it much faster because we can even
46:29
tweak the system to do that. But it's
46:31
hard. And, but that just
46:33
deeply held curiosity about anything all the
46:35
time keeps from being afraid all the
46:37
time or overly excited because excitement and
46:39
fear, both will take you out
46:41
of the Akashic records and most of the
46:43
other exalted states that are possible for humans. Right.
46:47
That's right. And people say to me all the time,
46:49
like, Laura, I just want to learn to do it for myself.
46:52
I'm like, ah, cause it's a lot easier
46:54
to practice on somebody else. Cause the minute
46:56
I go in my own records, I get
46:58
excited that I see something
47:00
or I get fearful because my brain can't
47:03
help but react to some degree when it
47:05
sees something and then I pop out and
47:07
it's no longer a pure
47:09
experience. So it just takes some
47:12
time to learn how to
47:14
manage the brain to like,
47:16
just be non-reactive, not analyze,
47:19
to let the information flow and later
47:21
think about it. Yeah.
47:25
It's really funny when you're doing
47:27
deep healing work, like a qigong
47:30
or hands-on healing kind of stuff
47:33
or I mean, Joe Dispenza teaches this, some
47:35
of the traditional Chinese medicine things. If
47:38
you're working on healing another person, you usually get
47:40
healed too. Right. But just working
47:42
on healing yourself doesn't work as well. And
47:46
there's also how many
47:48
doctors do you know who have doctors? Right.
47:51
And we have this kind of egotistical physician
47:54
heal thyself. Well, it's
47:56
actually hard to do that. It's one of the reasons that
47:58
I mean, I, 25. years ago, I bought
48:00
a an EEG machine. So if there's
48:02
something going on, I can read my brainwaves, I'm gonna,
48:04
I'm gonna do this. And after a year
48:07
or two of playing around with that, like maybe
48:09
doing brain surgery on yourself is dumb. And sometimes
48:12
it takes more than one person to enter a
48:14
state, especially learn how to do it. And
48:16
service to others puts you in a flow state,
48:18
like it actually matters, it changes things. So I
48:20
would say, yeah, practice on someone else for almost
48:22
any of this stuff. And
48:25
there's also a bunch of data, like real proven data
48:27
from Lynn McTaggart, who's been a friend for years has
48:29
been on the show, talking
48:31
about what happens when there's a field with
48:33
two people in it, or ideally eight, you
48:36
can do stuff. So I look
48:38
at all those. And when people say it doesn't
48:41
work, I didn't get results. Well, there's a lot
48:43
of variables. But those are some variables that are
48:45
pretty well understood make a difference. Yeah, if you're
48:47
going to practice this practice, and on someone else.
48:50
Can you practice it on your dog? Yep.
48:54
Yes, we can do dog have its own Akashic
48:56
record as well. Dogs,
48:59
buildings, you want to hear a cool
49:01
story about my house? I didn't realize Akashic records
49:03
applied to fit because I know how to clear energies
49:05
and places and stuff. But okay, tell me about this.
49:07
This is new to me. Yeah,
49:10
so my brother and I built this
49:12
healthcare tech company. And part of it was we
49:14
built a 12,000 square foot building. When
49:16
we sold the company, the building was
49:19
still ours. And we were renting
49:21
it to LabCorp America. And their
49:24
lease was coming to an end. And we
49:26
had this building was on the Illinois Medical
49:28
District. Okay, so it was on this land
49:32
of this bureaucratic Illinois Medical District.
49:35
And so we had still a big chunk of
49:37
cash every month to cover for the mortgage. And
49:39
it was a bit stressful, we needed to sell
49:41
it. So the Illinois Medical District was
49:44
interested, and then they just weren't. And we
49:46
were freaking out. It's
49:48
a lab in the middle of Chicago, it's not an easy
49:50
thing to sell. So
49:54
I in desperation went in the records of
49:56
the building. And the
49:58
building energy
50:02
said I need to say goodbye to the building
50:04
because I built it and I was like, oh,
50:06
come on, right? Like this is seems silly. Anyways,
50:09
total desperation. I was like,
50:11
whatever, drove across the city,
50:13
did a little like moment. It was actually kind
50:15
of nice, right? Like we had a whole history and
50:17
experience with building it. And, you know, I was 24
50:20
when I started it. So
50:22
I tell my brother who is not interested
50:24
in this stuff, he got his MBA from
50:26
University of Chicago. He went on to like
50:29
build another company that went public. And I'm
50:31
like, dude, you got to go say goodbye
50:33
to the building. He's like, I'm absolutely not
50:35
doing that. So weeks are
50:37
going by. We're getting desperate.
50:40
And he's like, you know what, fine, forget it. So
50:43
he apparently on a Tuesday drove
50:46
over there. I didn't know that. I
50:49
look at my email and, you know,
50:51
the Illinois Medical District's bureaucratic system, they
50:53
have to get a whole team together
50:55
to start the process. We hadn't heard from them
50:57
in months. I get an email and
50:59
it says, hey, we were we met
51:01
today. We're ready to go. And
51:04
my brother sends me a note and says, I went
51:07
and said goodbye to the building a few hours ago. And
51:10
it happened on the same day. And
51:13
I said, dude, check your check your email. Right.
51:16
So I don't know. Again, you know,
51:18
I get it. I get the skeptics. I
51:20
get one story like that. It's like, maybe
51:23
it's true. Maybe it's not. I
51:25
just have thousands of these thousands and
51:27
thousands. People call me from all over
51:29
the planet and just give me
51:31
their name. And I can do
51:33
this anytime, any day of the week. So
51:36
so, yeah, the buildings have
51:38
energy. I needed to sell my house. And
51:41
so I got some insight into how to sell my
51:43
house. A friend of mine
51:45
was trying to buy a house and I helped
51:47
him think about the the deal, whether
51:51
it was a good deal, whether or not the the
51:55
investors he was going in on it with had
51:57
motivations that were aligned with him. So
52:01
you can ask a lot of really cool things. What's
52:04
the type of advice that you could get from the Akashic
52:06
Records on how to sell your house? They're
52:10
not giving you pricing, right? What
52:12
kind of stuff would you get? Yeah,
52:15
it was much more along
52:17
the lines of things like the
52:21
energy of the house and the kind of
52:23
buyer that would be most interested in it
52:27
because the Akashic runs about energy,
52:29
right? And
52:32
so it was around like, this
52:34
is houses energy. This is where I raised my
52:36
kid. It had good energy for a family. And
52:39
in the end of the day, a
52:41
family ended up purchasing it, right?
52:43
And also the price, it felt
52:47
a little bit high or that kind of thing.
52:50
You can ask about... Again,
52:52
they don't care if you make more money, but you
52:54
can ask in different ways to
52:56
sort of set the pricing the way
52:59
you need to and set
53:01
up the house in the way you need to or what have
53:03
you. Okay. So
53:05
they're going to be more color
53:07
it this way and move the couch and you'll sell
53:10
it kind of stuff, like very specific.
53:13
You know, Dave, people try to get black
53:16
and white answers. The challenge with the Akashic realm
53:18
is I don't think I've ever done two of
53:20
the exact same readings. Everything is
53:22
really unique. It's unique to that person,
53:24
that situation. I marvel
53:27
at how different
53:31
each experience really is. So
53:34
people want me to create a flow
53:36
chart of questions, but somebody's working on
53:38
forgiveness with their mother and it's a
53:41
whole subset of things going on that
53:43
it's just not for somebody who's learning
53:45
forgiveness with their brother. And
53:48
there's not like this sort of science
53:50
to moving through the Akashic field
53:52
or what you'll get. Every
53:55
time I go in, it's kind of
53:57
exciting because you see an experience different.
54:00
lessons or I see
54:03
new things, I learn new things.
54:05
But generally speaking, buildings, it's
54:07
not a lot. It's not like
54:10
a human. It's a smaller set
54:12
of information. It's more about the feeling of the
54:14
house, what you can do
54:16
to make it feel better, the kinds of people you can
54:18
attract to it. If it feels
54:20
like time to sell or not, why are
54:23
you selling, setting your intention so
54:25
that it will sell, stuff like that. Mm-hmm,
54:28
okay. It's
54:31
a fascinating area to explore.
54:34
And if you've
54:36
liked this episode, Laura has
54:38
a free training for you, loraco.com. And
54:41
she has a low cost training. We don't have any
54:43
financial deal or something. I did
54:46
ask her for a reading a couple
54:49
weeks ago just to see what she had to say. I
54:52
asked about some of the biohacks or some
54:54
things that could be holding me back. You've
54:58
probably heard me cough a time or two over
55:00
the years. I've had a cough for like
55:02
a decade that I know is tied
55:04
to mast cells and histamines. It gets worse than that.
55:06
But I'm trying to narrow in on all
55:08
the normal stuff. And it's like 90% gone, but
55:10
there's just a little bit that I can still
55:12
find. So Laura
55:14
was able to point me in some directions
55:16
that are very much along the, the
55:19
body keeps the score kind of answers. Where
55:22
would you look at doing the kind of stuff
55:24
that you go to when the normal stuff stops
55:26
working and just doesn't work? And
55:28
I find whenever I'm working with someone who's
55:30
doing really deep healing work, okay? We've got
55:32
lasers and lidocaine. And there's ways
55:35
to make it stop hurting. We can reduce toxins
55:37
and we can reduce nervous system inflammation. But at
55:39
the end of the day, you're gonna have to
55:41
deal with the trauma that caused you
55:43
to tense up there in the first place. So
55:47
just knowing some directional
55:49
things can be really helpful when you're going
55:51
after the little esoteric things
55:53
that you're working on. I
55:55
think you got something cool. And because you're
55:58
so credible, like I've done all this stuff and I don't have.
56:00
to do this. You know, guys, maybe
56:02
she's crazy, but there's a lot of people like her.
56:04
And I don't think they're all crazy.
56:06
And when a bunch of them will
56:08
say the same thing, and they don't know each other, maybe
56:11
the crazy person is the one who's not paying attention
56:14
to that. Yeah.
56:16
And listen, call me crazy. I'm comfortable with
56:18
that. I don't really care. Try it. You
56:21
know, if it sucks, it's not
56:23
for you. It's like meditation, right? Like
56:25
it's not for everybody. I think it's
56:27
amazing. Does it completely transform my life?
56:29
No. But does meditation make a substantial
56:31
difference in my health and well-being for
56:33
me? It does. Like I do yoga.
56:35
Yoga was teased like crazy. I mean,
56:38
I find the benefits are incredible. 30
56:40
years ago, it was
56:43
a kind of weird thing to be doing.
56:45
You know, and I'm trying to take the
56:47
woo woo out of the Akashic records. It's
56:49
not weird. It's not some mystical, strange thing.
56:51
You just read some sentences, try
56:53
it, you know, and if it's not your thing,
56:56
it's, it's, that's cool, you know, but I think
56:58
it's a fun experience. I think like two for
57:00
people who are like interested
57:03
in an authentic life, a life
57:05
where they have a knowing of
57:08
themselves, where they're curious about themselves,
57:10
they want to experience
57:12
a deeper relationship to themselves.
57:14
They want to heal, grow,
57:17
have an ability
57:19
for more happiness, more
57:21
joy, more peace, which
57:23
leads to more prosperity. This,
57:26
in my opinion, is one of the
57:28
fastest ways to get the information that
57:32
can really help you along
57:34
that path, right? It's not going to
57:36
stand alone, fix everything. You might have
57:38
to implement some things. You might work
57:40
with a therapist or coach with this
57:42
information, but it's, it's pretty deep
57:45
in the answers you receive.
57:49
It's funny when you say, well, just
57:51
try it and see if it works. You sound
57:53
like this other crazy person I know who was
57:56
saying, you should try putting some butter in that old
57:58
free coffee. The amount
58:00
of outrage from just try it and
58:03
see if it works. I
58:05
don't know why people get outraged by that because man, nothing
58:07
works. But the resistance, the
58:09
skepticism and all that, it's
58:11
just built into our human operating system. But because
58:14
seriously, you give it
58:16
a try. Or maybe if you're lazy, schedule a session
58:18
with an Akashic Records reader. I'm guessing you don't do
58:20
a lot of sessions. Do you do a lot of
58:22
sessions? You know what, Dave?
58:25
I was, but I did a podcast and I
58:27
got a 4,000 person wait list
58:29
going, it's like 10 years. So I
58:31
do train people. All the really talented
58:33
people aren't available. I'm with you there.
58:37
I have some trained people on my site.
58:40
And I didn't know try it,
58:42
brought up more skepticism. But yeah,
58:45
I mean, don't try it. I'm not a pusher. It's
58:48
just really like, I think it's awesome.
58:50
So I like to share it with other people who
58:52
are excited. Yeah. Well,
58:54
thank you for coming on the show. And
58:57
if you're listening to the show and you like this, let me
58:59
know in the comments. I'll put this up on Instagram, both on
59:01
the page for the show itself, which
59:03
is the Human Upgrade Podcast, or just on my
59:05
page. If you're not following me, let's cross a
59:07
million followers. By the time you see this, I
59:10
might already have crossed it. I always appreciate a
59:12
couple extra as we're pushing to go past a
59:14
million. And just
59:17
let me know if you want more of this kind of stuff. I'm
59:20
intrigued. I've been studying it for decades.
59:22
I just don't talk about it that much, because
59:24
frankly, in the early days of biohacking, if
59:27
I talked about more than I did,
59:30
earthing, red light therapy, whole body
59:32
vibration, and
59:34
the red light therapy pisses people off. And I
59:36
talked about ayahuasca and shamanism, just kind of as
59:39
little crumbs. And
59:41
I talk about discovering Bulletproof Coffee on the
59:43
side of Mount Kailash. It actually wasn't Bulletproof
59:45
Coffee. It was yak butter tea, but you
59:47
get the point. So like, guys,
59:49
I've been doing this for a long time. It's
59:51
just not that mainstream. And over
59:53
the next few years, I'm
59:56
taking the biohacking world into
59:59
more consciousness, enough of us now
1:00:01
that have working mitochondria, working nervous systems
1:00:03
who have the power and energy to
1:00:05
pay attention even when there's
1:00:07
distractions around and that lets you go deep. That's
1:00:10
why there's 40 years is then and you'll
1:00:13
see me talk more at the biohacking
1:00:16
conference coming up here, biohackingconference.com at
1:00:19
the end of May in Dallas. So
1:00:21
we'll talk about some of the more esoteric
1:00:23
masculine and feminine dynamics and
1:00:26
I'm just bringing in the spiritual teachers and
1:00:29
strangely when you talk to a health person who's
1:00:31
done it for 40 or 50 years, they're always
1:00:33
also a spiritual person because they come together as
1:00:35
you attain wisdom. So keep
1:00:37
attaining wisdom here and if you like it
1:00:39
along the way and you'd like to support
1:00:41
the show, pick up your danger copy. You'll
1:00:43
feel amazing at danger copy.com. It
1:00:46
truly hits you different than any other coffee you've
1:00:48
tried. This is the minerals because it's ultra clean
1:00:51
and well, I have
1:00:53
to say it, just try it. It might work. All
1:00:57
right. Laura,
1:01:00
thanks. That was super fun.
