#68 - Beyond the Mind: How meditation can level up your life with Brian Tremblay

 What if the peace you’re chasing isn’t something to find, but something to remember?

This conversation unfolded through a series of voice notes exchanged inside our private men’s WhatsApp group. 

What emerged was too powerful not to share.

Gareth and Brian Tremblay had a conversation on meditation, the monkey mind, ego, impermanence, and the pursuit of a more present, peaceful life. From psychedelic sound baths to 10-day silent Vipassana retreats, we share personal stories that bring these ideas to life. If you’ve ever struggled to “just be,” this one’s for you.

Expect practical tools, personal transmissions, and reflections on how meditation can rewire your inner world and reshape your reality.

What you’ll learn:

• Why the mind resists stillness and how to work with it
• The real reason silence feels so loud at first 
• How ego throws everything it can to stay in control - and how to remain in the driver’s seat
• The beauty of dissolving old identities and how the disorientation creates your new reality
• A powerful 3-step framework for real transformation: Awareness, System, Support
• Why meditation isn’t about getting somewhere, but about becoming a new you.

Note: Since this wasn’t recorded in a studio, there’s some minor mic feedback in parts, but the message is well worth it.
