  • How Do I Let Go of Anger And Resentment

    How Do I Let Go of Anger And Resentment
    Jan 9 2026
    Are you making choices in love or fear? Take this self-assessment today to find out: https://seatofthesoul.com/cultivating-love-optin/ Letting go of anger and resentment is one of the most challenging - and transformative - inner commitments a person can make. In this episode, Linda Francis shares a grounded, compassionate explanation of what it truly takes to release these painful emotions. Rather than offering a quick fix, she describes a lifelong practice: choosing, again and again, not to act on the anger that arises and instead learning to feel it with full awareness. Through this process, listeners discover that emotional healing comes not from suppression, but from conscious choice. As Linda deepens the teaching, she explains how the universe provides opportunities to challenge the angry and resentful parts of our personalities. These moments - often unexpected - are invitations to grow. When anger appears, we can learn to locate it in the body, observe its thoughts, and use our will to refrain from acting from it. Each time we do this, the frightened parts lose power, and the loving parts gain strength. This is the essence of creating authentic power. Ultimately, letting go of anger and resentment becomes possible when you choose not to feed these parts of your personality. By feeling the emotion without acting on it, you stop reinforcing it - and you begin cultivating the loving, constructive aspects of yourself that reshape your life. What You’ll Discover in This Episode: (00:20) — Why letting go begins with commitmentLinda explains why your first step is deciding - fully - that you will no longer allow anger and resentment to run your life. (01:06) — How the universe brings growth opportunitiesUnexpected situations arise specifically to help you challenge and heal the angry parts of your personality. (01:35) — The practice of feeling without actingYou learn how to notice anger’s physical sensations and intense thoughts while using your will to not act from them. (02:40) — Why stopping mid-reaction is a breakthroughEven if you catch yourself in the middle of anger, choosing to feel instead of act is a powerful moment of transformation. (03:20) — How loving parts grow stronger as anger loses powerEach time you refrain from acting on resentment, you stop feeding it - allowing the loving parts of your personality to take root. Embrace the Soul Step Challenge This week, notice the moments when anger or resentment arise within you. Instead of acting on them, pause. Feel the sensations in your body and witness the thoughts without suppressing or expressing them. Ask yourself: What part of me is feeling this? What would it look like to choose not to act from this place? Each time you commit to feeling rather than reacting, you loosen the grip of the frightened parts and strengthen your ability to create authentically with love.

  • Supporting with Love

    Supporting with Love
    Jan 2 2026
    Are you making choices in love or fear? Take this self-assessment today to find out: https://seatofthesoul.com/cultivating-love-optin/ A new consciousness is unfolding, and with it comes a deeper understanding of what it truly means to support another person from love. In this episode of The Gary Zukav Deepcast, Gary shares a powerful story from his time working with a circle of students. Through this experience, he illuminates how difficult it can be for individuals to express what they genuinely feel - whether their perceptions arise from love or from fear. His reflections reveal an essential truth: real support requires honesty, presence, and the willingness to see the frightened parts of our personalities at work. As the conversation deepens, Gary explains why withholding our truth out of fear of “hurting someone’s feelings” isn’t loving - it’s a reaction of the frightened parts, which avoid discomfort and vulnerability. True spiritual partnership, he emphasizes, is rooted in speaking from love with sensitivity and appropriateness. This allows both people to discover more about themselves, strengthen compassion, and cultivate authentic power together. Ultimately, the episode invites listeners to recognize when fear holds them back from honest connection - and to choose loving support instead. Speaking from love not only heals relationships; it also expands awareness and deepens our evolution. What You’ll Discover in This Episode: (00:45) — Why “supporting with love” requires honestyGary explains how avoiding the truth out of fear blocks authentic connection and prevents real support. (01:30) — How frightened parts silence our true perceptionsA participant’s hesitation reveals how fear keeps us from expressing what we notice about others - and what this teaches us about ourselves. (02:20) — The moment self-reflection becomes possibleGary shows how speaking honestly allows individuals to see their own unwillingness to feel what arises inside them. (03:22) — The difference between loving speech and fearful speechWhy statements rooted in fear sound harsh, while words spoken from love naturally become sensitive, appropriate, and supportive. (04:05) — How to recognize when the frightened parts are speakingGary describes the inner signals that reveal whether you're withholding the truth out of fear or choosing to support from love. Embrace the Soul Step Challenge This week, notice the moments when you hold back from telling the truth because you fear hurting someone’s feelings. Pause and feel what is happening inside you. Ask yourself: Which part of me is speaking - love or fear? Then gently explore what it would look like to respond from love, with sensitivity and clarity. Each time you choose loving honesty, you strengthen authentic power and deepen your capacity to support others in meaningful ways.

  • How Can I Change the World from the New Consciousness?

    How Can I Change the World from the New Consciousness?
    Dec 29 2025
    Are you ready to live Beyond the Five Sense? Learn How Here: www.seatofthesoul.com/beyondthefivesensescourse A profound shift is underway in humanity, and in this episode, Gary Zukav explores the question so many people hold today: How can I change the world from the new consciousness? He begins by illuminating the difference between the old five-sensory perception - rooted in control, manipulation, and external power - and the new multisensory consciousness emerging across the human species. This new awareness recognizes that we are more than bodies and minds, and that true transformation begins with the alignment of the personality with the soul. Rather than focusing on changing the outer world, Gary guides listeners toward the deeper, internal work that actually reshapes experience and expands perception. Gary then delves into the core misunderstanding of the old consciousness: the belief that painful emotional experiences come from the outside world. From the new consciousness, we see that the world only activates inner dynamics already within us. This creates a powerful opportunity - not to fix the world, but to identify the physical sensations of our emotions, cultivate emotional literacy, and choose to act from the loving parts of our personalities instead of the frightened parts. This is what creates authentic power, and this is how the world truly changes. Ultimately, Gary shares that the only way to change the world is to change yourself. When you become more loving, more kind, and less reactive, the world you live in shifts - because in the new consciousness, “in here” and “out there” are not separate. Transformation happens from the inside out, and every loving choice expands your awareness and the role you play in the unfolding evolution of humanity. What You’ll Discover in This Episode: (00:30) — The defining differences between the old five-sensory consciousness and the emerging multisensory consciousness (02:05) — Why external power - manipulation and control - once served human evolution but now creates only violence and destruction (05:10) — How the new consciousness shifts the focus from changing the world to transforming yourself from the inside (08:45) — Emotional literacy: how identifying physical sensations in the chest, throat, and solar plexus expands awareness (11:40) — How choosing to act from the loving parts of your personality creates authentic power (14:55) — Why fear and love form the fundamental duality of the Earth school and how recognizing this changes everything (18:20) — How dissolving the illusion of “in here” vs. “out there” reveals that changing yourself is changing the world (19:32) — A practical Soul Step for noticing where the “barrier” between inner and outer might be disappearing Embrace the Soul Step Challenge Take a few quiet moments with your notebook and write about your experience of the “barrier” between your inner world and the outer world. Have you always believed they were separate? Are you beginning to sense that the boundary is thinner - or perhaps not there at all? Reflect on whether this shift signals the emergence of the new consciousness within you. Throughout the week, notice moments when you feel this connection more clearly, and let these insights guide your choices toward love.

  • Will AI Change Human Evolution?

    Will AI Change Human Evolution?
    Dec 22 2025
    Discover how intentional choices can transform your life. Download this meditation on Responsible Choice today: https://seatofthesoul.com/responsible-choice/ Humanity stands in a rare moment of profound transformation, and in this episode, Gary explores a question many are asking: Will artificial intelligence alter human evolution? Instead of approaching the topic from an intellectual or technological angle, Gary guides listeners toward the deeper truth - evolution has never been driven by tools, inventions, or external advancements. True human evolution unfolds within consciousness, and the shift now underway is not about smarter machines but about humanity becoming multisensory, aware of itself as more than a physical body and a thinking mind. As Gary explains, AI - like gunpowder, agriculture, railroads, television, or the internet - can change what we experience, but not who we are. The real transformation comes from recognizing ourselves as souls learning in the Earth School, perceiving the difference between love and fear within our own personalities, and choosing love before we speak or act. This inner capability, now emerging across billions of people, marks the beginning of a new human evolution that no machine can replicate or direct. Ultimately, the episode reveals that AI will not change human evolution because human evolution requires the heart. Only emotional awareness, authentic power, and multisensory perception can alter the trajectory of our species. Technology cannot evolve us - but each individual can, through conscious choice. What You’ll Discover in This Episode: (00:30) — Why advances like gunpowder, railroads, telegraphs, television, and the internet changed human experience but not human evolution (02:05) — How five-sensory perception shaped human history - and why the shift to multisensory awareness is unprecedented (04:43) — Why tools, including AI, can magnify external power but cannot transform consciousness (06:10) — What the soul values (harmony, cooperation, sharing, reverence for life) and why technological speed or conquest cannot fulfill it (08:51) — What might happen when humanity gains the ability to travel to Mars with intentions rooted in fear vs. intentions rooted in love (12:37) — How new consciousness enables humans to experience non-physical reality and see life through the lens of the soul (16:31) — How choosing love over fear creates authentic power and is the real force that evolves humanity (20:00) — A practical Soul Step for tracking frightened and loving parts of your personality throughout the week Embrace the Soul Step Challenge Take out your notebook and, throughout the coming week, write down every moment you notice a frightened part of your personality - anger, judgment, resentment, withdrawal, superiority, or the need to please. Note what triggered it and how it felt in your body. Then record each moment when you chose not to act from that fear, and instead experimented with appreciation, understanding, or compassion for the other person involved. At the end of the week, read what you’ve written and ask: What can I learn about myself from this?

  • Evolution of Consciousness: Where to Look for It

    Evolution of Consciousness: Where to Look for It
    Dec 15 2025
    Are you ready to live Beyond the Five Sense? Learn How Here: www.seatofthesoul.com/beyondthefivesensescourse In this episode of The Gary Zukav Deepcast, Gary explores the monumental transformation occurring within human consciousness and explains why this shift is unprecedented. He describes how the old, five-sensory consciousness is rapidly giving way to a multi-sensory awareness - one that allows individuals to perceive beyond the physical world and understand themselves as more than minds and bodies. Through clear, grounded examples, Gary helps listeners recognize evolution unfolding both around them and within themselves, especially during moments of emotional challenge, conflict, and inner discomfort. Gary goes deeper into how this unprecedented transformation reveals itself in everyday life - through social structures breaking down, heightened discord, and the collapse of systems built on external power. At the same time, he explains how emotional awareness and inner examination help individuals witness evolution internally: in their physical sensations, their thoughts, and their movement between fear and love. This inside–outside perspective helps listeners see why the discomfort of the old world dissolving is part of the birth of a new, more conscious humanity. Ultimately, Gary shows that evolution is not something to wait for - it is something each person can actively observe and participate in. The new consciousness expresses itself through emotional awareness, authentic power, and the growing recognition that love - not fear - is the true source of strength and meaning. What You’ll Discover in This Episode: (01:12) — Why the shift from five-sensory to multisensory perception is happening at unprecedented speed (03:40) — How discord, division, and collapsing social structures are signs of evolution - not deterioration (06:45) — Why attempts to “fix” the old world with external power only create more conflict (08:12) — How emotional awareness reveals the inner landscape of evolution through physical sensation and thought (11:20) — The role of love and fear as the core dualities of Earth School (13:01) — What it means to recognize yourself as “your perceptions” and why observer and observed are inseparable (17:03) — A powerful soul step for experiencing the new consciousness directly Embrace the Soul Step Challenge Take out your Soul Notebook and reflect on the phrase Gary offers in this episode: “I am my perceptions.” Instead of asking what it makes you think, explore what it makes you experience. Write down any sensations, shifts, doubts, openings, or insights that arise as you sit with these words. Return to the question multiple times: What did this cause me to experience? Then observe where you notice evolution taking place both inside and outside yourself. Note how these moments feel in your body and how they shape your choices toward love or fear. Let this reflection help you participate consciously in your own transformation.
