Walk the Talk Show with Waylon Lewis presents:

This week on our longrunning, ongoing “Walk the Talk Show” podcast and video series, with awards and millions of views over the years…

Waylon discusses what we can do when we’re overwhelmed with overwhelm. He also offers a reminder of where Dharma (or expertise) comes from.

(Hint: it’s not our ego)

“We all get overwhelmed. We get overwhelmed by the news. We get overwhelmed by relationships. We get overwhelmed by stress around food, or money, or how we look, whether we’re popular or not, depending on what age we are, and what’s going on. Overwhelm is really just a lack of oxygen.” ~ Waylon H. Lewis 

 ” Dharma teachings—life or truth teachings, even if they’re not Buddhism—come out of experience, not expertise. Expertise based on experience is great—but you’re not an expert unless you’re coming from a place of experience.” ~ Waylon H. Lewis 

Can’t watch? Why not listen:

“We have to be grounded in experience and in humility, as well as in our goofy, full, wonderful selves. And that is what Dharma comes from—that place of direct truth—not some sort of on high worshipy, culty thing. And if it is culty, it isn’t Dharma.” ~ Waylon H. Lewis
