Why is everyone at the whim of their environment when it comes to their mood? Our days are only good if this or that happens, yet we are the ones that mentally determine our mood. The issue is we don't know that. We think things have to happen in order for our lives to be "good" or "bad". So we pile on more things to make it better. But nothing changes. Jason explores this topic on this solo episode of The Painted Target.

Part 2: With so many links to what we eat and our mental health, many people could be fueling the fire of a bad mood by certain lifestyle choices. Jason and P.D.

We all live different lives; some are more or less philosophers always asking the big questions. Others have families, normal jobs, and no time at all. Plus we live in an environment thats full of toxins. Does this dictate someones path to what some would call mastery or does it even matter? Jason and Nick explore this topic.

Jason and Nick talk about how we fuel our problems even if we don't know it, and how breaking free from programmed psychological structures is the goal.

Jason and Nick explore the facts we can find in the unknown. While most people fear the unknown, there are many facts to be found in it. These facts lead to the true reality of the situation.

We search for tools in order to feel better and handle situations. We use concepts and all kinds of tricks to help ourselves. The only real tool out there, one that has always been available, is Mental Alchemy. Taking certain mental states and either "transmuting" them into something more optimal or denying them all together. Jason explores this topic in episode 25.
