Truth

Uncovering truth is about removing layers of delusion that obscure our natural state. Cory and Aubrey discuss how love and other fundamental qualities are innate, and the key is to eliminate the barriers that prevent their expression. They argue that personal growth is more about subtraction than addition.

The answer is always to remove everything, and truth is revealed. Truth is waiting there. It's just covered in tons and tons of shit.

By hacking away at these layers, individuals can reveal their true selves and foster genuine connections with others 4.

   

Internal Space

Cultivating internal space is essential for personal growth and effective response to life's challenges. Cory emphasizes the importance of letting go and creating space within oneself to observe and respond thoughtfully. Aubrey adds that meditation practices help in unfolding deeper layers of consciousness.

It's all about releasing and letting go and cultivating that internal space so that in life, whenever shit comes at you, instead of being reflexive and just responsive, you have the space to be able to observe and think about what's happening in real time.

--- Cory Allen

This practice allows for a more patient and compassionate approach to life's situations, enhancing overall well-being 5.
