Description

In this episode of "Into the Magic Shop," Dr. Jim Doty hosts a conversation with Chip Comins, CEO of the American Renewable Energy Institute (AREI) and the Founder of American Renewable Energy Day (AREDAY). Chip traces his interest in these areas back to his childhood and his work with the Lakota tribe. He and Dr. Doty discuss the creation of AREDAY, which recently celebrated its 20th Anniversary, and its mission of addressing climate change. The conversation also covers the problems with capitalism, the impact of colonization on indigenous cultures, and the potential of hydrogen as a clean energy carrier. They highlight the need for developed countries to assist developing nations and criticize the inaction of the wealthy in addressing environmental crises.

Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, many were overwhelmed with stress, anxiety and depression. While this epidemic of stress has been growing over the past decade, it has been exacerbated by the pandemic and the divisive nature of political discourse. As a result, many people feel disconnected, inauthentic, and unhappy, while questioning the source of their unhappiness when they presumably have “everything”—an absence of compassion, for oneself and others, is often the source of the problem. Many of us don’t understand the nature of self-compassion nor the power of compassion to improve our lives and alleviate our suffering. By entering the “Magic Shop”, Jim will share his wisdom and introduce a variety of techniques to change the course of one’s life and share his own lessons learned through the exchange of untold stories of his guests. He will interview authors and experts in the fields of philosophy, psychology, neuroscience, spirituality and religion, as well as individuals with unique points of view. He will also engage his listeners by answering their questions and also at times interview listeners who are willing to share their own stories of challenge and hardship.
