T.I. & Dr. Yahki on Morning Sex, Meditation, AI & the Future of Healing

Uh, I heard you speak a lot about meditation.

Uh-huh.

Um, could you talk about how meditation is connected to health and wellness? Yes.

Uh, meditation is basically when you, I call it silencing the noise.

Mm.

It's when you become in the present state of the now.

Uh, the best time to do that, so for, for w- for instance, you're doing diaphragmatic breathing.

Diaphragmatic breathing, when you breathe in, you're gonna breathe in through your nasal passage.

It's called box breathing, for four seconds.

So you breathe in, one, two, three, four.

You then hold that breath, one, two, three, four.

Then you release, one, two, three, four.

Then you hold the breath again, one, two, three, four.

While you doing that, when you breathe in, your diaphragmatic muscle expand and your belly go out.

So, [inhales] [exhales] if you do that the correct way, you moving something called the cisterna chyli of the diaphragm, and this is the biggest lymph node on your body, so it helps you detoxify.

So just off of that, breathing correctly or consciously breathing or meditating help you detoxify the body.

Now, in meditation, you actually get to separate thoughts.

Through your meditation and separating thoughts, this, this gives you the ability to compartmentalize your thoughts, and you can bring to the forefront of your mind what you really wanna manifest.

When you breathing correctly, it brings you into something called the present state of the eternal now.

This is how all manifestation works anyway.

If you can bring that thought or bring that vision to the forefront of your mind, and purely focus all of your consciousness and all of your breath and all of your energy on that particular vision, after the meditation, write it down, create a plan, and then work on it, you will eventually be in the whole business you was planning in the first place.

Mm.

I seen a school, I wanted to buy it.

I meditated, I seen what exactly what I was gonna do with the school.

Uh, me and IB went, we purchased the school.
