Every year, I get asked, so here it is in podcast form: My Advice on preparing for and enjoying Burning Man. I offer this as gentle advice and encouragement for those people headed to playa this year. I am just one man with one opinion and I have no delusions that I am an expert of all things Burning Man. I recorded this with idea that people might listen to it while packing for the Burn, or driving to it, or flying into Reno. If you have never attended BM, you may enjoy listening, anyway, because I try to explain the event and it's vibe. If you want to support me, share this, like this, follow this, or whatever.

(Warning: This is an emotional and deeply personal message. It contains issues concerning grief and the loss of loved ones.) While I intended to make a "Meditation" recording today, my preparation led me to my own profound experience and prompted me to speak about two very significant moments in my life. This is my heartfelt attempt to share and, perhaps, deliver two messages I have received over the last 12 years.

How do we handle people that disagree with us? In this live talk from Calgary, Baxter discusses how we deals with an American politician. He also finishes the story of how he fell in love. I am on tour right now! We will resume our normal episodes soon!

Baxter delivered this talk at HP: Calgary. Baxter is speaking to a group of 40+ hoop dancers, sitting in a circle. Unfortunately, some of the comments from the group are hard to hear. This will be corrected in the future. Baxter begins every class and workshop with an opening improvised talk. In this talk, he discusses how one can find and gain confidence through the use of their imaginations.

You're not stupid. You may be fixated, though. In this episode, I explain how becoming and being fixated can lead us to make bad decisions. The music is upbeat and meant to get you through your movement session, while I attempt to help us break the pull of our current fixations and be free up a "sticky Awareness." The music is by Desert Dwellers.

Tranquility by way of humility. This weeks' meditation focuses on surrendering to the Universe, rather than fighting against it. While it is true that we make our own way in this world, it is also true that things happen to us that are beyond our control. Embracing the intended and the unintended creates space for Understanding and Compassion for ourselves, and for others. Music by AmmonEP: "Encounter" https://soundcloud.com/ammonep Words: Jonathan Livingston Baxter www.futureheropodcast.com Available across all platforms: iTunes, Stitcher, Soundcould.

This week's episode is all about freeing up the flow of who you really are by letting go of the one thing we sometimes hold to the tightest: our identity. Baxter explains his take on making our way out of being stuck, by freeing ourselves from the shells of who we used to be.

In this meditation, we are seeking to align our selves with peacefulness. The world can be such an angry place, and it is easy to become swept up in hostility for those with whom we do not agree. Yet, agreement with all peoples, is not prerequisite to Love for all peoples. Listening can cultivate understanding, and understanding can bridge great divides between hearts without detriment to either party. To be in peace, is to be more open to life and its many lessons.
