How does personal growth connect to the greater evolution of humanity?

In this fascinating episode, I welcome David Knox to explore the link between personal habits, somatic experiences, and collective evolution.

From Darwinian evolution to cosmological perspectives, David offers insights into how our individual evolution can contribute to the larger consciousness of humanity.

Join us as we uncover the power of intention, the impact of our emotional state on outcomes, and how physical release can lead to emotional freedom.

In this episode, David Knox and I discuss:

- The connection between habits, intuition, and somatic experiences in personal and collective evolution.

- Evolution from both a scientific (Darwinian) and cosmological perspective.

- David’s journey of realizing the importance of aligning personal goals with universal evolution.

- The interconnectedness of consciousness and the impact of individual growth on collective human development.

- The holistic view of what it means to be human and how it affects our life experiences.

- The idea that consciousness and intention are integral to the universe and personal evolution.

- The concept of a holographic fractal universe, where each part reflects the whole.

- The importance of individual evolution for the betterment of humanity and the planet.

- How the emotional and mental state behind our actions influences our outcomes.

- Challenges of becoming aware of misalignments in one's life and the courage required to make changes.

And so much more!

David Knox is the creator and host of The Evolutionary Podcast and LiveStream YouTube channel. For decades David studied and experimented with the relationship between spiritual practices and life circumstances. In 2019, looking at the state of the world, David decided it was time to walk away from his corporate career and start talking to people who care about things that matter.

Now David teaches others how to use their holographic, fractal relationship with our consciously evolutionary universe to create happiness, meaning, fulfillment and affluence in their lives, and in doing so, help to evolve the human species.
