Long before Shane Heath became the founder and CEO of MUD\WTR, he was already on a mission to create healthy minds through healthy habits. Battling depression and anxiety from a young age, Heath traveled both the world and his own interior landscape to shift and evolve his perspective continually. Heâs turned his personal journey into a company thatâs committed to curiosity, self-exploration and community engagement. Whether in his role as a father, jiu-jitsu practitioner or supporter of psychedelic research, Heath has fostered a âget toâ rather than âhave toâ mindset that uplifts the idea that if you change your mind, you can change anything.

Lao Tzu said, âWe make a vessel from a lump of clay, but it is the empty space within the vessel that makes it useful.â We often ignore the space in between, but Emmy Award-winning director, author, and experience designer Topaz Adizes knows thatâs where the magic is. He believes in asking each other the right questions to provoke and challenge us. In the space between what is said, the space between listening and reacting, lies the possibility of shifting the direction of our lives.

We canât control how others think, feel, or behave, but that doesnât stop us from trying. One of the ways we do this is through self-centric storytelling. We make assumptions about others that put us at the center of the action. But that leaves us organizing around fear and control instead of truth and love. Todayâs pod challenges you to upgrade the stories you tell about yourself and others to bring ease and accuracy to your worst-case scenarios.

Worried your relationships might have some codependent characteristics? They might. Weâre social creatures, and whether we like it or not, we need each other. But sometimes, how we give and receive support devolves into unhealthy patterns of relating. So how do we remain interdependent without crossing the line into compliance, control and denial?

Do you have a favorite mood? Our frame of mind influences our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. It also affects our relationships and our experiences. While so much of life is out of our control, one thing we can actively shape for the better is our mood. And we donât just mean âThink happy thoughtsâ (does that actually work for anyone?) However, some moods are more generative than others, like curiosity versus defensiveness. If youâre dissatisfied with your default disposition, it might be time to turn off emotional cruise control and consciously choose how to orient yourself to the world around you.

Feel resistant to meditation? Or maybe you want to meditate more, but a formal practice feels out of reach because you donât have the time or energy. Plus, it can be a little daunting to sit quietly with yourself after all the busyness of our distraction-filled lifestyles. Or maybe you just think meditation is boring. Meditation is a wonderful tool, but itâs not the only way to shape our perception of our experiences. So, if youâre struggling with meditation for any reason, Iâd like to offer you the stepping stone to mindfulness. This step is a kind of attention training but can happen anytime, anywhere, to help you be in the present moment.

Walking is a balm for our mental health, but something we neglect to do because, doesnât it just seem too easy to actually help? Sometimes, itâs hard to believe something so simple (not to mention free) can provide so much benefit. But walking can improve our overall mood, reduce stress and anxiety and even help us sleep better. Plus, unstructured meandering can boost creativity. Friedrich Nietzsche believed, âAll truly great thoughts are conceived while walking.â
