Shocked Into Awakening
Do you feel trapped by your own mind? Imprisoned by your thoughts? Do you often find yourself wishing you were somewhere in the future, or reliving ’better’ memories from your past? We all do it. All day. I was ’lucky’ enough to have gone through living life with a stutter. It showed me the chaos that can reside inside our own minds, when we become fixated or obsessed on something. An idealised future. A better past. Here, I aim to show you a world outside your thinking. A world that exists in this moment Now. When we reconnect to what has always been there since we were kids. Our hearts. The playfulness, the joy, the truth. Join me, as we take the longest journey of our lives; one that most people don’t even start. The journey from head to heart. Much love, Sanjog PS The three episode types are: Head (🧠) - Episodes discussing getting OUT of the head. Heart (❤️) - Episodes discussing getting IN to the heart. Inspire (🗣️) - Interviews with inspirational people on the same journey as us.
Episodes
Do you ever feel isolated, like no matter what you do, you can't connect with certain people in your life?
Do you feel like there are walls up, for both you and the other person?
Does it feel like you're literally talking to, or hitting your head against, a brick wall?
In this episode I briefly go into 4 ways that we experience these 'brick walls of thought'.

Today's special guest is my personal coach and friend Viktor Saghy! Viktor coached me for 1.5 years 2023-2025. He is an amazing coach and mentor.
In this episode, we spend the first half discussing his coaching approach and the second half him live-coaching me! I was in a bad place with my speech and this was the support I needed.
I delayed putting this episode out for 15 MONTHS! I kept avoiding. What becomes obvious to me is I was...
Part 2 of the Ego Sabotage/Letting Go episode series!
We spoke about feeling triggered in the last episode, where the fight/flight centre of our brain gets activated.
We spoke about bringing awareness to these sabotaging thoughts. Dealing with them on a thought-level.
In this episode we speak about letting go of the feeling on a somatic body emotion-level.
This process has changed my life in numerous ways. Being able to regulate yo...
Do you feel like your mind hijacks you sometimes?
Your ego sabotages your growth?
You behave in ways you later regret?
When we feel triggered, we are activating the amygdala, the fight/flight centre of our brain. We are NOT being ourselves.
Find out why this happens, and the first step in changing your behaviours, in this episode.
Note that this is a 2-part episode. Please listen to"❤️006 - Letting Go" next week (Feb 25).

Today's episode is a very special one to me. You see, I met Alex Manzi on a personal development course back at the start of 2023. This was a course which launched me into embarking on my podcast journey. But whilst the inkling for the idea had formed on the course, it was Alex who massively encouraged and guided me on getting setup with my recording equipment and the "how to". He is a fantastic life coach and his podcast was rated...
Why do we never trust our hearts or our guts?
We used to when we were kids... we would laugh, love and cry. Create and play all day!
Then we developed thought.
The mind started trying to keep us small. Make us play it safe.
It wants everything to be CERTAIN.
Life is uncertain.
Enough.
Start building trust.

Do you feel trapped by your mind?
Does it feel like it's caging you in, with no way out?
Do you feel helpless, even after trying postitive affirmations, therapy and numerous ways to 'change' your thoughts?
What if there was another way?
A way that didn't involve changing any thinking.
A way that showed you who you truly are.
A way where you realise you aren't trapped inside the cage, but rather you are the one observing the cage.

I hope you enjoy this very special episode with my friend Essi Virtanen; a lovely inspiring heart leader! We met through a mutual friend of ours and instantly hit it off, with similar views on life and how the heart triumphs the mind in all facets of life. Why be thoughtful, when you can be heartful?
She has recently launched her FIRST book called Heartful, which can be found on her website below! I've read it and it's wonderful.

The start of the new Heart series.
What IS the heart?
The heart is the part of you that has remained unchanged since you were born.
The heart is the absence of problems.
The heart is the antithesis of the mind.
The heart is peace.
The heart is expansion.
The heart is infinite.

What IS the mind?
Do you often find yourself wondering what exactly is going on in your head?
Do you feel like your thoughts are frantic and chaotic?
Have you tried countless affirmations and positive thinking to try and change your mind, but nothing worked?
What if there was another way?

Wow wow wow! What an incredible episode this was. Meehir and I met at a personal development course in March 2023 and immediately hit it off because... well... let's just say he doesn't hold back with the jokes! He's an amazing heart-centred person, and when I say that, I don't mean "la-di-da-di-da, life is amazing all the time, sunshine and rainbows, peace love and unity". I mean he stands for the truth at all times. He has been t...
Today we have a very special episode to bring you in to your heart.
This is the Innocence (In No Sense) meditation.
I first heard a similar meditation during William Whitecloud's Create Your Destiny course.
Since then, I have used this meditation every single time I create something, whether that be a video, a podcast episode, a post, a speech.
I also use it when my mind is frantically trying to figure something out. It brings me i...
Are you always CERTAIN of things?
Do you always try to be RIGHT?
Is that getting in the way of you experiencing your natural flow state?
Could the one thing you think makes you so much smarter than everybody else (your mind) be the one thing that is stopping you from reaching the peaceful intuitive heart?

I hope you enjoy the episode. Much love.

This is an amazing episode I recorded with an incredible human being, Raj Gorsia. I met Raj during a personal development course at the beginning of 2023. The level of prescence and heart-centredness he brings when you speak to him is something to admire. You can tell he's deeply listening and from a very calm place. His voice alone brings a sense of ease and calmness; a fact that many people have told him! I hope you enjoy listeni...
Are you holding back in expressing yourself in life?
Do you worry constantly about other people's opinions of you?
Censoring your own opinion, for fear of standing out.
Why do we do this?
Why do we forsake our heart's truths moment to moment.
We betray ourselves. Betray our truth. Betray our souls.
Are you speaking your truth?
Start now.

I hope you enjoy the episode. Much love.
Do you really want to change?
Have you been working towards a goal, and not seeing results?
Or you keep sliding back and can't figure out why?
What if, consciously you want to change, but subconsciously you don't.
What if there's a certain comfort that resides in staying the same?
What if there's a benefit to you NOT achieving what you're trying to achieve?
What if there's comfort in staying small?

I have a very special guest on today's Inspire episode - Moritz Lambert. I met Moritz at a personal development course in March 2023. He is a remarkable young man with a lot to give in this world. Here's a description of who he is:
Moritz lembert is a Leadership and life coach, a teacher, and a writer who loves to dance.
After 12 years in the world of professional dance and bodywork, he transitioned into coaching and leadership tr...
Are you resisting what's happening in your life?
Desperately wishing things were different to how they are?
What if we stopped resisting our problems and, instead, tried the opposite?
What if we relaxed into the thoughts and feeling surrounding them and actually 'wanted' them?
How would that look?

I hope you enjoy the episode. Much love.

Are you spending all your time thinking about an idealised future? Where you have something you desperately need? Or you have finally gotten rid of something you hate?
We're always chasing that carrot on the stick. Running after it. Chasing that magical thing...
But we're missing life. We're missing the life that is happening right Now.
Don't forget to look around and enjoy what's going on.
Maybe the carrot is an illusion.

Welcome the podcast! Before we get fully stuck in with our journey, moving from the head to the heart, I thought I would share a little about my own journey and how I stumbled upon the concepts we'll be discussing during our months/years together.
