  This 5-Minute Happiness Hack Will Change Your Life 05.09.2026 19min

  Send me a message Five minutes a day of intentional positive thinking is enough to start changing how your mind works. Here's the practice — and why our thoughts run negative by default. Almost all of our thinking is unconscious. It's habit, conditioning, and repetition, and it leans negative because the mind is a survival system built to scan for danger. That worked in the forest. It doesn't work in a life with infinite things to worry about. The practice is simple. Set aside a few minutes...

  Why We Quit on Ourselves So Easily 29.08.2026 24min

  Send me a message We quit on ourselves because we tied our confidence to the finish line. When the goal gets delayed, the confidence goes with it. If achievement is the only thing that makes us feel good, then 99% of our lives will feel like failure. The answer isn't smaller goals. It's moving where the good feeling comes from. Getting back up is the achievement. Real confidence comes from being willing to look like a fool in front of people who are better than us — the person who loves the...

  Why You Feel Numb (And How to Feel Alive Again) 22.08.2026 20min

  Send me a message Most of us spend our lives replaying the painful parts and calling it realism. That habit is a large part of why so many of us feel numb — and this is how the feeling comes back. Four of my books, free — link below. A photographer can walk into a junkyard and come out with something people pay real money to hang on a wall. A photograph of a broken-down car. The beauty was already there. The eye was the thing that had to be trained. We can all train that eye. Most of us li...

  Easy Mindset Shift That Will Transform Your Life 15.08.2026 24min

  Send me a message It's easy to get stuck in a loop of negative thinking. Overthinking, complaining, replaying old pain. Some of us live there for years. This is the simplest gratitude practice I know for getting out. Think of one thing you love. A person, an object, anything at all. Then ask what made it. And then what made that. Keep going, and gratitude stops being something we have to search for. It becomes impossible to avoid. That one question opens into everything else here — presence...

  The Cost of Never Sitting with a Thought — The Power of Stillness 25.07.2026 20min

  Send me a message When was the last time you sat in a room or a park for an hour with zero distractions—no phone, no music, no podcasts, no food, and no substances? For most of us, the answer is "never." We live in an age of relentless mental bombardment, where every free second is filled with external input.

  No More Fear of Death — Die Before You Die 18.07.2026 13min

  Send me a message We are all going to die. While that sounds scary, it’s actually the most freeing realization you can ever have. In this podcast, I explore why the pressure we put on ourselves—to be perfect, to fulfill a grand scheme, or to live forever—is the root of all stress. When we finally accept our inevitable demise, we loosen the bonds of attachment and free ourselves to "live big," take risks, and cherish every single moment. What you’ll learn: - Why "dying before you die" is th...

  Feeling Trapped? Do This When You Want to Run Away from Everything 31.05.2026 17min

  Send me a message Have you ever felt the overwhelming urge to leave it all behind — your job, your marriage, your city? We often think happiness is just one move away, but what if the "prison" isn't the place you’re in, but the patterns of your own mind?

  Send me a message If you're dreading the day and relying on coffee just to function, your energy isn't the problem—it’s a mindset of hopelessness.

  Your Thoughts Are Lying to You 10.05.2026 22min

  Send me a message "Your mind is like a toddler with a chainsaw." Most of us are living in "Stockholm Syndrome" with our own thoughts.

In this talk, Todd Perelmuter breaks down the "slave driver" nature of the ego and shares his personal journey from being a stressed, addicted New York ad executive to finding total mental silence.

In this video, you’ll discover a deeper truth — one that goes beyond “handling criticism” or “staying positive.” A truth that changes how you experience every interaction. Because when you truly see what you are… there is nothing to defend, nothing to protect, and nothing that can be attacked. And from that place… peace is no longer something you try to maintain. It’s simply what remains. Plea...
