There's an issue on the website where you can't go to "services" "contact" or "about unless you're on the main home page. It looks like it's because the buttons are linked to elements on that specific page but not links by themselves and can therefore not be found on any other page even though the buttons are there in the top right corner. I hope you can let Natalie know asap :) Beautiful website anyway and I wish her all the success in the world! -Greetings from Iceland

pandabutter bingo 💡 that’s a problem with self help, you don’t feel like you are inherently are enough, you are lacking, so you seek out confidence, how to speak without doubt, the build a better me game, but in actuality you have always been enough to begin with, just from conception you were lied to, and were brainwashed to believe you aren’t enough, and so it’s this grand chase, which isn’t your fault, and the pursuit of being the best version of yourself is noble, admirable, and possibly the best one you could strive for, but every time you think I’m not confident, I’m going to become it, you are reinforcing that you aren’t enough, so instead, you have to assimilate the understanding you are perfect, whole, and complete, as yourself, but you want to contribute, add value, so you learn different skills, so skill acquisition, think of them as enhancements, you are not only making progress in whatever skill you want to learn, speaking a new language, communicate effectively, learn how to play guitar, whatever it is, you are becoming even greater then that which you are, it’s really crazy, you think you aren’t enough, so you spend countless hours reading, listening to podcast, attending seminars, only to realize you’ve always been enough, and it’s just the thought you aren’t enough which is deeply engrained in your subconscious is the reason why, it’s trippy

I think the proper state of being is contentment, where the individual isn't happy - but they aren't suffering either (which is what I've come to realise trough reflecting on my past and gaining further knowledge in this region). Ensuing a state where you're not suffering is the desirable state of Being, I believe, for all humans but society disguises not suffering as happiness. They are NOT the same...

6:38. The Prophet Muhammed taught something similar. He said: “How wonderful is the affair of the believer, for his affairs are all good. If something good happens to him, he is thankful for it and that is good for him. If something bad happens to him, he bears it with patience and that is good for him.” Point is to be grateful and patient for good and bad in your life.

Happiness is invited into our lives when we embrace the moment instead of insisting it should be a different way. It’s important to have goals and dreams, but we need to be flexible and understand that if the universe decides differently for us, it does not have to mean it’s a downgrade. The only moment in time we ever have any control over is the present moment. If we are mindful and live in the now, happiness can be found. It’s never a destination, it’s simply a path. Incredibly beautiful video, Matt. ♥️

Thank you Matt, I really needed this. This past year had me feeling lost and angry as a post-grad who can't seem to gain traction in any aspect of my life. After an interview for a dream job didn't pan out, I've been struggling with depression. Just hearing that I am enough, even from a relative stranger, almost made me cry. Thank you 🙏.

I’ve been listening to Alan Watts lectures as I go to sleep for the last five years and I think it’s made a big difference. It’s so relaxing to just release yourself from those distracting and false paths to happiness and realise you have everything you need right now.

God has been calling you and you haven't been answering, he's trying to get your attention before it's too late. Call on Jesus and know that he will heal you in every way if you choose to seek him. He won't fail to show himself to you. If you're unsure, and openminded to an answer, ask that he may open you up to find him and expect it and it will happen. If you subconsciously don't want God to be the answer tho, He will not bother showing himself to you; it's about a relationship, not a religion, He won't force himself into your life and save you if you don't want Him

You have no idea how much I needed this and how much it resonates with me. A post-grad only months out of college has led me to be the most pensive and reflective that I've ever been. Questioning my current situation and all my options to live a life that I'm satisfied with. Doing my internet searching and I came across this video and it has been an unbelievable help. What's unbelievable but also emerging I think now in the modern era with mental health discussions is the whole idea that we live and see life by the way our minds dictate it.That's why such unrelated things to us personally bother us or why one single compliment from a stranger may change our whole attitude about ourselves or the current moment. I have struggled with this in the past, but just telling yourself that the mind itself is both the origin to our happiness and and our negativity is helping. Once you change that pessimism to optimism then life can be so different. IT SOUNDS SO CLICHE BUT IT NEEDS TO BE DONE!
