“It’s good to be aware. If you need to do something that’s pulling you so much to where you couldn’t live without it, or you just can’t do it, then there’s a good chance, you’re probably addicted to it.” (02:43)

“So it’s good to connect to your soul and have an experience every day of removing yourself from you.” (3:55) 

“But when we start to observe our thoughts, 50 to 80,000 thoughts a day, we can start to see how it’s affecting our unconscious, which is 99% of thinking anyway. “ (4:44)

“Our thoughts are one thing that we can control. And what we put in our mouth is another thing.” (6:24)
