Commune is a podcast where we explore the ideas and practices that bring us together and help us live healthy, purpose-filled lives. We believe personal and societal health are two sides of the same coin, and that cultivating personal wellness is the first step toward making the world well. We connect with experts, scientists, and storytellers around food, health, social impact, mindfulness and movement practices, personal growth, and environmental action. In addition to being a podcast, Commune is also an online course platform where thousands of participants take each course together, day-by-day, for free.

Commusings: Of Love and Light

Wu-wei is the Taoist way of life. It means not forcing. But it doesn’t entail complete passivity. Being alive inherently involves interfering. We cannot observe an electron without changing its behavior. We cannot exhale without altering the chemical composition of the atmosphere. The master is a student of nature. Knowing her, he harnesses her course. He jiggles the key in the lock. He applies the rudder to leverage her current. Commusings is our format where we take a moment to think deeply on the topics of spirituality, philosophy, and culture. For more musings and quotes, connect with us on Instagram at @onecommune or @jeffkrasno or sign up for the Commusings newsletter at onecommune.com. This podcast is supported by: Apollo Neuro The Apollo™ wearable uses scientifically-backed touch therapy to rebalance your nervous system and support your circadian rhythm.

Meditation: Dealing with Doubt and Imposter Syndrome with Murray Hidary

Self-doubt is not always an unhealthy thing. It’s what compels you to reflect inward, to challenge yourself to be better. But unhealthy amounts of doubt can be all-consuming, and even paralyzing, which leads you to believe that your dreams are not achievable (or worse, that you don’t deserve them). In this exploration, you'll learn how to turn self-doubt on itself, using its own mechanism to unwind it.

How Soil Speaks to Your Cells with Zach Bush, MD

Why were Zach’s patients getting sicker and more inflamed even when eating kale and brussel sprouts and other foods he knew should be loaded with medicinal compounds? This question would lead him to realize that we have created a food system, a medical system, and a culture that is fundamentally divorced from nature — and particularly, from healthy, fertile soil. Ultimately, soil health is human health. This conversation with Commune co-founder Jeff Krasno serves as a foundation for Commune's newest course, A Path to Healing People and Planet, hosted by Zach Bush, MD and Farmer's Footprint.

The Keys to Longevity with Dr. Mark Hyman

We think of aging as a normal consequence of getting older, but looked at a different way, aging can be seen as a disease — driven by upstream factors such as what we eat and think, the quality of our relationships and microbiome, exposure to toxins and allergens, and so on. The takeaway that Dr. Mark Hyman and Jeff discuss today: You don’t have to age the way you see so prevalent in modern society. As new research emerges, the field of human longevity is entering an exciting phase of development.

Today’s musing explores one of Jeff's lifelong passions: tennis. You may or may not share his enthusiasm for hitting fuzzy yellow balls.

Why Metabolic Dysfunction Kills with Dr. Sara Gottfried

In her thirties, Dr. Sara Gottfried’s metabolic function was closer to that of a woman in her fifties.

Commusings: Abortion Stories in Greyscale by Schuyler Grant

Stories about abortion are filed in the library of most families — legal, illegal, secret, tinged with relief or with regret. In this episode, Schuyler's mother shares the story of her two abortions, and Schuyler shares her experience of an appointment that came... and went. In a society that has made pro-choice or pro-life a black and white decision, this episode embraces the reality that abortion is non-binary – “not composed of or involving just two things.” In the greyscale, degrees of truth emerge, and maybe (just maybe) a middle path reveals itself. Commusings is where we take a moment to think deeply about spirituality, philosophy, and culture.

How Genes Listen to Your Beliefs with Dr. Bruce Lipton

Contrary to an outdated understanding of genetics, your genes aren’t actually “on” or “off.” Different chemicals cause different responses in your genes, and since it is your brain that decides what chemical signals to send to the cells, your consciousness is actually your chief architect.

Commusings: The Will of the People

Today’s musings comes after the haze of the fireworks has cleared, but the same can not be said for the social and political tensions that characterize the time. This month, the U.S. celebrated its Independence Day, a holiday that, for many, has come to symbolize the tenet of freedom. Sounds simple, right? What could be more straightforward than the concept of freedom? For better or worse, social contracts rarely are, and this look at the almost 250-year-old Declaration proves just as nuanced.

Commusings: Moving On

In Japanese aesthetics, there is a concept known as yūgen, which has no real translation even though we have all felt it. In the Chinese philosophical texts from which the term was taken, yūgen meant "deep" or "mysterious." But really it points to a sensation of sadness. Not grief per se, but, rather, a delightful kind of wistfulness akin to the feeling that arises when listening to Satie or Debussy. It is strongly related to the acceptance of transience that is associated with wabi-sabi. Today’s musing attempts to poke at this feeling. Commusings is our format where we take a moment to think deeply on the topics of spirituality, philosophy, and culture.

Today's episode is an excerpt from the Commune course, The Work of Byron Katie. In this session, Laurie is recalling a situation in which she felt her partner was trying to control her. Katie then walks Laurie through the essential process of The Work: Is it true? Can you absolutely know that it's true? How do you react, what happens, when you believe that thought? And, who would you be without the thought? These four questions are followed by turning around the thought to experience the opposites of the thought.

Commusings: To Meat or Not to Meat?

You don’t exactly “get protein from eating protein.” Some two hundred thousand proteins are synthesized by your cells using 21 amino acids — nine of which are not made endogenously in your body. So, you need to consume these nine essential amino acids. But do they have to come from meat? And what are the physiological impacts of eating meat? This spontaneous, bonus Commusings was published on Instagram by @jeffkrasno. You can also follow Commune @onecommune.

Charles Eisenstein: The Origin of the Wrongness in the World

This audio workshop is an extended excerpt of Charles Eisenstein's Commune course, Political Hope. Our politics run on a mentality of war, and war mentality rests on the story of separation. The problem, as the saying goes, is that if you have a hammer, everything looks like a nail. If our go-to solution is to find the enemy and defeat them by force, we become blind to any other way of solving problems.

Commusings: The Technology of Community by Jake Laub

Justin Michael Williams: Don't Call Out, Call Forward

Today's episode is an excerpt from the Commune course, Healing Conversations with Justin Michael Williams. If you are looking to improve the quality of your conversations – particularly difficult conversations – you can try this Commune course free for 5 days at onecommune.com/healing. This particular lesson really gets at the heart of the program: Calling people out doesn’t work. No matter what has occurred, shaming or blaming someone else shuts down the centers of their brain that activate learning and growth. So of course they get defensive — it’s built into human biology. That’s why it’s critical to learn how to call people forward. Calling forward is an INVITATION. We are calling them toward something new. And in the process, we must also be willing to be called forward ourselves. You can learn more about Commune at onecommune.com. And connect with us on Instagram at @onecommune.

Healing Our Collective Addictions with Russell Brand

Very few of us are free from some form of addiction — alcohol, sugar, sleeping pills, sex, Instagram, co-dependent relationships, the list goes on. Russell points out that all our addictions stem from a common problem: spiritual disconnection. But when we admit we have a problem, believe in real change, accept help from others, and hand over our will and control to a higher power, we can begin to find freedom from our addictions. Furthermore, can the 12-step recovery model be applied to the addictions of our society? Can we collectively recognize a problem, commit to change, undertake a thorough inventory, recognize patterns, and create a culture of service? Today we examine 12-steps from the personal to the communal. Visit onecommune.com/join to watch Russell's online course on Recovery and try Commune Membership free for 14 days.

The myth of the separate self underlies our entire civilization, says philosopher and author Charles Eisenstein.

By doing so we become able to solve “impossible” problems, from political polarization to global warming.

Vaccine Skepticism and Free Speech with Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is best known as a distinguished environmental lawyer and advocate for environmental justice. In recent years, he has been an outspoken critic of Big Pharma, specifically as it pertains to vaccines. Many have dubbed him an “anti-vaxxer,” but he claims to be pro-safe vaccines and contends that vaccines do not undergo sufficient testing. Jeff invited Robert on the podcast to provide a platform for Robert to raise legitimate concerns about vaccination, as the lack of thoughtful discussion on this issue has, in some cases, radicalized the movement. While Jeff may not agree with some of the assertions in this episode, he ultimately decided that the value of sharing another’s opinion in a considered and non-social media context was more valuable than silencing those views.

EVRYMAN with Ashanti Branch, Touré, and Sascha Lewis

We have to change the paradigm of what it means to be a man in our society. For so long, the ideal man was someone who suppressed his emotions, never showing that side of him to the world. But what has internalizing these values led to? A loneliness epidemic, addiction, grief, and suffering. Today, we explore the archetypal characteristics of maleness, mass incarceration, how the BLM movement is different from past civil rights movements, and what one group is doing to bring men together to be vulnerable with each other and cultivate other aspects of humanity.

Now dubbed the “Lady Gaga of Meditation,” her approach to spirituality is pragmatic and practical: You will find enlightenment within your life's circumstances, and nowhere else. It's not about changing the facts of your life, but working with and within them.

You Are a Coral Reef with Ara Katz

Like a reef or rainforest, what we call a human is actually a multispecies superorganism — technically a "holobiont." We evolved to exist with our microbes and the microbiomes of others. Breast milk co-evolved to feed the growing garden in an infant's gut. We exchange microbes when we hug and kiss or have a pet in the house. Today, Ara Katz, co-founder of Seed, talks about the importance of microbes and how they can impact the health of our bodies, our children, and our planet.

What Drug Companies Don't Disclose with Allison Behringer

Happiness Right Here with Danielle LaPorte

This dualistic view of the world pits people against each other and turns nature into something we want to control. But we can choose another story — one of interdependence and connection. By doing so we become able to solve “impossible” problems, from political polarization to global warming.

Thoughts on Happiness

Your Health is in Your Hands with Kelly Noonan Gores

Modern allopathic medicine is brilliant at treating acute trauma, but it’s a big problem when we try to treat chronic health issues with the same approach. Today on the show Jeff speaks to Kelly Noonan Gores, writer, producer and director of the documentary Heal. She explains how our medical system throws drugs at symptoms instead of understanding and treating the root cause of the disease. This is no small matter, as over half the American population is now afflicted by chronic issues such as diabetes, arthritis, asthma, and cardiovascular disease. Yet Kelly’s message is one of empowerment: We are not destined by our DNA. We have agency over our own well-being. Learn more about Commune courses and events at onecommune.com.

How can we remember those who have died with more than just love and pain? David Kessler’s insights in this podcast are both professional and intensely personal.

The Hidden Meaning in Hardship with Michael B. Beckwith

Hardship, loss, loneliness. These aspects of the human experience can be doorways for finding meaning in life. According to Michael B. Beckwith, founder of the Agape International Spiritual Center, the key is asking yourself the right questions. Don't ask, "What is the meaning of this suffering?” Instead explore, "Based on this obstacle, how can I imbue my life with greater meaning?” Today, Jeff and Michael discuss that imaginary hole we sometimes feel in our lives, and how what that feeling is really asking for is a spiritual awakening.

Your Hormones Are a Superpower with Dr. Jolene Brighten

Dr. Jolene Brighten is a women's health naturopathic medical doctor and author of Beyond the Pill. She believes every woman (and the men in her life) should get to know her hormones, because only by understanding how her body works can a woman make informed, healthy choices about interventions such as birth control. Hand-in-hand with education, Dr. Brighten also believes we need to flip the script in women's medicine – where everything is diagnosed is a “dysfunction” – and instead embrace that the cyclical nature of female hormones is actually a superpower. Dr. Brighten’s new course, Balance Your Hormones, will be launching on Commune in early 2020. Go to onecommune.com and sign up for our newsletter to get our latest course releases!

Question Your Thoughts with Byron Katie

Byron Katie became severely depressed while in her thirties. Over a ten-year period, her depression deepened, and for the last two years, Katie was seldom able to leave her bedroom. Then one morning, in the depths of despair, she experienced a life-changing realization. Katie saw that when she believed her thoughts, she suffered; when she didn’t believe her thoughts, she didn’t suffer. What had been causing her depression was not the world around her, but what she believed about the world around her. In a flash of insight, The Work was born.   In this episode, Jeff does The Work with Byron Katie, recalling and reliving a difficult moment in his childhood and turning what was a painful memory into an opportunity for growth.

Kiss the Ground with Finian Makepeace

We often consider the fight for global warming as simply the elimination of greenhouse gasses. We need more fuel efficient or electric cars, more solar, and more wind power... But that only slows the dive toward catastrophe. Regenerative agriculture actually sequesters carbon and restores the earth to balance.

Birth Stories: Rewriting the Narrative

"Think for a moment about the stories you tell yourself about childbirth… None of us remember our own births, and many of us don’t even know our mother’s (or father’s) story of how we were born. And the births we hear about are usually the dramatic or traumatic, because a smooth, easy birth doesn’t make much of a story.      What’s more, the way babies are born in movies and on TV certainly doesn’t help paint a picture of diversity and nuance in labor… you don’t see many women in a birth tub or crawling around on all fours on Grey’s Anatomy. In fact the power of the imagery most of us have – a woman on her back, screaming bloody murder – is more than pernicious… it is a recipe for stalled labor.    In today’s episode, guest host Schuyler Grant attempts to change that imagery, starting with the story of her birth day.    If you are pregnant or thinking about getting pregnant, check out Schuyler's new Commune course, Empowered Birth! onecommune.com/birth" Learn more about Commune courses and events at onecommune.com.
