Technology has made it easier than ever before to opt-out of taking responsibility for ourselves, and far too many of us have jumped at the opportunity. The problem is, by outsourcing authority we’ve opened ourselves up to abuse.   When we start letting perceived authority figures make decisions on our behalf, we place ourselves at their mercy. When did we become a society of children, and how can we regain the power we’ve relinquished?   How are the elites keeping us under their control, and what can we do to break the cycle? What are their motivations for dominating us in the first place?   In this episode, world-renowned holistic wellness expert and founder of the CHEK Institute, Paul Chek joins me to discuss how to recover sovereignty by building consciousness.    Three Takeaways   Why the presence of dark forces helps us build consciousness: It’s easy to get caught up in “good versus evil” and “wrong versus right”, but to become conscious beings we have to have both. Negative polarity forces us to keep growing, which ultimately helps us maintain our consciousness. What’s stopping us from accessing the truth: We’re constantly bombarded with images of danger, but they’re only illusions being fed to us as a distraction from what’s really going on. We have to stop giving all our energy to news and social media and start looking for answers on our own. How to get in touch with reality in a world that thrives on smoke and mirrors:Stop paying attention to illusions, and focus instead on reality. The real world and its natural resources are the only things that can guarantee our survival, so we need to channel all our efforts into protecting it from those who threaten it.   Guest Bio-  Paul Chek is the founder of the CHEK (Corrective Holistic Exercise Kinesiologist) Institute.
