The Michael Singer Podcast: Ceasing to Be Caught in the Waters of Mind
Michael Singer reveals the source of an agitated mind-and how spiritual surrender holds the keys to joy and freedom.
The natural state of the mind is like calm, still water, teaches Michael Singer. The practice of spiritual surrender-to "relax and release" our resistance to whatever arises in our experience-is the pathway to enjoying serenity of mind no matter what the universe throws your way.
In this podcast, Michael Singer uses the analogy of an aquatic bird maintaining its balance on rough water to illustrate what to do and what not to do if we want to stay poised and upright when life gets turbulent.

I am 63 years old and I've been miserable for the most part of those years. Two years ago I came to hear Eckhart Tolle and that was my beginning of realizing that this Spiritual Awakening ìdea is the way, somehow, to ĺive, and to live in Truth. Two years later I'm still searching for a way to do this. My life didn't even feel a little bit better. Oh no, if anything I'm feeling worse. Until I heard you speak on KZhead. Michael, I'm just starting to understand that maybe I can learn from your teachings I am hopeful and listening to anything I can hear you say. I do know now I am the consciousness, not the mind. But my mind is insane and I need and want to fix it. I want to find peace and love living. Thank you so much for this much. I'm still hoping. Blessings to you, blessings and love. 🙏❤🙏
Debra, how are you feeling now? Are you still benefiting from the application of Mike's philosophy?
I changed my mind by listening to Abraham-Hicks on UTube every day. Free & life changing. One can create a new reality.
Your post made me tear up - your honesty and insight will serve you well.
Did you heard about islam
Hi. How are you? I don’t want to be miserable for the rest of my life and want to leave the mental struggle. Similar to what you were sharing. Thank you.
Feeling so very grateful to Michael for his teachings and to Sounds True for making these available. My 13 year old daughter has be suffering debilitating symptoms relating to a Functional Neurology Disorder for more than 9 months, including paralysis, non-epileptic seizures, vision loss etc. We've had multiple hospital presentations and admissions. This morning I felt drawn to this recording and as I listened to it knew that my daughter would benefit from it. After some strong encouragement she reluctuantly agreed to listen to it and I'm thrilled to report that she was able to talk, walk, see with clarity and hasn't suffered any seizures since listening to it a few hours ago. The messages really resonated with her. This was the key to her recovery journey. I can't thank you enough!

Love this! Isn’t Life beautiful, how we grow and expand, learning how to navigate through our journey to be in the here and now, letting go of the roller coaster of our thoughts ~ and having complete trust in the natural unfoldings of Life ~ where we need not push ~ that we can truly open our hearts, noticing the beauty all around us, due to the time we now have, as we are no longer in our minds 24/7, trying to figure out this and that , the why’s and why me’s. When we let go, allowing Life to run it’s natural course, rather than trying so hard to not have this or that happen, or gripping in anxiety, so afraid of what will happen next, or trying to prevent this or that from happening,,, instead, we relax, take a full deep breath, totally letting go, releasing all train of thoughts that are trying to take residence within our minds and body’s, and just be still, look around , and enjoy the moment that is right in front of us. When we do this those moments of stillness begin to grow more and more, placing surprises and delights within those moments that we took control over our lives by letting go of control ♥️ Freedom 💝 Super proud of your 13 year old! What story will have! Imagine all the lives she will touch from her learning to take control of her life by letting go and letting life pass through, holding onto to her joy, her peace, and enjoying those moments of being present ♥️ One day she will look back at all this and be so thankful she went through what she went through (and even more, that she has a mom who loves her so deeply that she introduced to her how to obtain freedom at such a young age) Many blessing to you mom and your daughter and your entire family’ ♥️ Orlando Florida
@@divinebeginnings3741 thank you for your beautiful words packed with so much meaning and love.🙏🙏🙏❣️❣️❣️
@@divinebeginnings3741 ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🌿🌿😇 I have taken a snapshot of your, and I will re-read it multiple times throughout the day. It is so beautiful it is what I am suffering right now. And anxiety. Fear of every single thought every single thing. And what makes it worse is I know I create this state. And I know this is not who I truly am. But your post brought me such comfort❤️🙏
“Relax and release the moment you notice the disturbance”, this is sooo helpful! Thank you Michael A. Singer🙏🙏🙏
“I’m not okay. I should shut up.” Best advice EVER ❤️🙏🏻🤣
This so applies to me! I’ve made so many messes trying to articulate my position, feelings and thoughts.
Gosh this is very very profound. I’m really enjoying his podcasts. I don’t care one iota about this world. I only care about my state of mind and how I feel. Nondual teachings like Ramana Maharishi have taught that world is a projection of my mind and yet I have no control over it. All I need to do is become comfortable with observing the different mind states and stop freaking out about the mind’s reactions to the things of the world. It will all pass. I am scared of my own mind and the mind states- that’s why I’m constantly trying to placate other people and change the world so my mind can be quiet. But when I become more comfortable with these emotions passing through, I can become more familiar with the patterns of reactions in the mind and not freak out every time I have a reaction. I can just observe. I don’t need to be scared of the world because what I am really scared of is just my own mind and its emotional reactions. I just need to become more familiar with it and observe my mind as I go throughout the day.
Hello The Self, I can relate to your perspective. Have you found peace in your mind? The purified mind is no different than the self. Thank you for your words, we are all in this together and we are capable of calming the mind. It’s a practice, such is life. Today feels a little bit closer with Michael’s words and your reflection. Thank you 🙏
Hi . I bought his 8 week class online. I watch it again and again. Sounds true sells it. I love this video. I watch it a lot. He is so funny and sweet. I’m just a regular person. I don’t get paid for posting this.✌️
I've been on the spiritual path what seems like my whole life, have done so many lectures, retreats, workshops... you name it I likely have done it, most of them calm my mind for few months, at most, then have to go back and take another one again... Reading Michael first book the 'Untethered Soul' felt to me for the first time in my life I've been liberated: like metaphor... as though I have unraveled my stripes, thought all these time I was a zebra only to find I am a horse. Michael's teaching is teaching me truly what a mind is all about....so much wisdom and I am set free... just breathe and release... Thank you so kindly Michael for showing us the way back home.
Woke up in a very negative mindset. Listened to Michael's audios and l instantly felt lighter. Its amazing how our mind keeps us down with the neurotic thoughts. The moment you let go, you instantly feel lighter and free. That's how l always feel after listening to Michael's podcasts.
So grateful For Michael Singers teachings. I recently found out about this and hope it will help me to recover from many years of sad litigation abuse in a divorce where my ex did take my house; car; health insurance and all things he had promised when I did meet him when only 21.. his goal was to make me bankrupt and homeless for leaving him. I could not stand up and the it was so painful and disturbing I got very sick for years. His revenge was hard to survive. He did end up with all our community assets, only becuase I had no funds for legal representation in California: I am saved by friends from my home country but with nothing left while he lives early retired from my money too.. A very unfair trail where I almost lost my life prior; during and after . I am listening to this like a candle in the dark… hoping for release and freedom. Thank you 🙏❤️🌺
The longer you live with the knowledge Mr Singer is saying and apply to your daily life - the deeper you understand the same words he is saying. Just amazing!
This was very helpful.. Thanks alot🙏🏻. I have left my job 4 months ago and I have been searching for my passion ever since and now I realize it's not about passion, it's about me not living my life, searching for happiness by chasing dreams while happiness is infront of me.
Your comment It's just what I needed to hear thank you
Michael Singer for President please!
This one talk can heal the trillion ripples made by the mind ❤️❤️❤️
The Universe brought this video to me. I literally just completed a 3 hour river surfing course last Friday. I had this realization as I survived the river rapids and waves. I was the bird. 🙏🇨🇦❤️🌈🌎🏄♀️🦋
Your teachings have changed my life forever and gotten me through some really tough times.
same, I don’t know how I would have survived my husband’s cancer and passing + grief without being introduced to Michael Singer’s work a year prior 🙏
Michael Singer i have read your book "Untethered Soul Three times and learned something new every time. You books and talks have changed the way I think so that i am watching ripples in my lake and not drowning. Thank you from the depths of my being for sharing and teaching how to be happy.
If you like this, I highly recommend his audio book called "Living from a Place of surrender- the untethered soul in action". It's all about this topoc. He talks about what life can feel like when you are able to surrender and let the ripples happen. It's life changing.
Thank you for the recommendation! ❤️
Agreed!
Ooh
Michael the universe has blessed us with you, I am grateful
10:57 “The purified mind is no different than self” 👑
I love his energy and humor😊
MS is a blessing.
Mr. Singer, your skill to teach us constantly amazes me. I listen to your lectures practically every day and learn something deeper almost every time. Your presence among us is such a huge blessing. Heartfelt thank you for doing all this for us.
Micheal Singer teaches with such simplicity & clarity which makes it so easy to understand
Why would you want the right to be angry? Wow that line cracked me open 💕💕💕
Life changing, what a gift he is. These teaching are perfect
Amazing 🙏🏼. The entire spiritual teachings of the World in a nutshell. Thank you Michael 🙏🏼
Thank you Micky, you are a Master, yes you are a Master, you bring tears to my eyes !! I've been listening to you less than a year now and I'm so much more at peace and more happy with life itself as another teacher.
Gratitude and respect to Michael and his years of inner liberation and willingness to teach. Gratitude and respect to Sounds True for all the work you do to bring such powerful teachings and healings to our awareness. Blessings 💕
I’m slowly getting better at sitting with difficult ripples. Every time it gets a 1% easier. Fear is still here but it’s ok…it’s giving me an opportunity to relax through it ❤
This talk is absolutely life changing.
couldn’t agree more🙏🏻

Thank you Michael Singer and Sounds True...so so so very helpful. We are all here because somewhere in us we know this truth. Greetings to all who also listen. I am not alone
Micheal Singer’s lessons ARE life changing! Thank you!!
I am always led to learn and be exposed to these spiritual teachings just at the right moment. I am grateful for these moments because I know nothing happens by chance. Thank you Michael!
Agree on your comment
Things always work in divine timing and in a perfect way 😇
@@marisacastaneda2080 Yes, indeed. Thanks Marisa.
THANK YOU so much for bringing Mikey to us! My life is sooooooooo much better because of HIM! Please send us more, thank you!
MY life ;)
I love these ideas coming from a beautiful man. Been listening to him for the last two years to a point where I almost memorized his talks 🙏
I listen to them over and over because they put my mind at ease.
I am exactly the same! lol. I thought I was a cult of one. the beautiful part is as your soul evolves and you go back and listen again, you hear it differently. The audio is the same, but you are not. This is the truth.
Same here
Words of wisdom from the brilliant man who wrote the must-read book, The Untethered Soul.
Every single thing he says is SO true. I am that bird now,have been for a long long time,with many problems in my life can't calm the mind and becoming sucidal... homeless,jobless,alone and it goes on in my head on and on... I can't see anything outside that lake...
Finally I understood why the mind is a mirror
I cannot thank you enough for your wisdom Michael.
I really needed this right now. Thank you to my guides for leading me here, thank you Michael Singer, so grateful your teachings are freely accessible thanks to the Information Age and SoundsTrue. Much love and light 🙏👼💕
Thank you Michael for sharing this wisdom. Today I remembered how to fly & it brought me such peace thank you so much 🙏
Real talk mix in with spiritual talk, thank you so much Dr. Singer.
What an amazing talk! Micky and Sound True freely gave the answer to living. Thank you
Thank you for sharing this podcast. Very valuable. At the moment I am balancing on the line between a quiet mind and eager to learn. If my mind wants to create something and I also feel I want to do something, I rather focus on things that are helpful like listening to a podcast like this one, instead of over-analysing and get stuck. And I love being in nature for example, make music, or just sitting on the couch in silence, or lying down in the grass and looking at the clouds... A heart-mind coherence ❤🧠
Dee Gratitude ❤for you Mickey 🕊️
Your transmissions are a gift for all levels of consciousness. The silent message underneath the language based parables are being received and embodied with grace. Thank you beloved
This was one of the first talks i heard by Michael Singer..i keep hearing them again and again and each time, i thank Sounds True for giving us the access to the teachings of this modern day Master. I feel blessed. Thank you!
Rereading and reviewing Michael Singer’s book and podcast. What a blessing.❤️
Absolute gold!
The most remarkable info I've ever heard. Period...
Michaels audios and book Untethered Soul have made me really get it now. This is after trying to find peace and reading and journaling and doctors etc etc for years. The work I did beforehand helped me get more aware and open, no doubt.
we do everything to make the mind quiet never saw it this way thank you for the insight
I listen to this everyday 🙏🕉
Great great beautiful work, this man is a total eye opener and has made my life a bit easier. That’s powerful, thank you Michael. I’m so happy to have accidentally found you. Or as you would say it took 3 million years to get to this point! Thank you again
This is so simply powerful…
I have been listening to Michael singer everyday for the last month. Thank you so much. Been in a very low place the last year or so … and I was going deeper into that…. I am at a Ayurveda Panchakarma facility for detoxification for the last month. I feel such a great homecoming to myself. Recognizing the mind having its own mind and the consciousness so pure and I can almost touch it … but not quite as yet. That is the deepest longing to connect to be in union with that
Taoist philosophy is very much in keeping with Michael's metaphor of the water (striving) and stillness (wu-wei) Martin Heidegger (hermeneutics) coined the phrase abut pregnant possibility/preparedness without pushing. I love the word surrender.
Thanks from Argentina! So much wisdom
I was eagerly waiting for new videos of Michael A Singer. Thanks to Tami Simon madam and Sounds True
Thank you !! I love Michael 😊🙏
Just came across, gonna get up the park and sit and listen. thanks
Thank You very much! 🙏❤️
Thank you Michael and Sounds true channel for doing this. 🙏🙏 This is unfathomable life changing stuff.
Love the simplicity of this, thank you Micheal❤️🙏☘️
Love this analogy ......perfect timing
My recent ripple after feeling heavy for 3 full days for something that happened at work calm down after i just kept relaxing and did nothing more, it was difficult to do that because i could not see as a separate experience from me, but i kept going with the knowledge that it is not me and kept observing for three days and one morning I felt better, the incident became boring and puffed in the air
Thank you for all you do today and everyday sincerely appreciated by so many wishing to surrender 🙏
The many being me . Amen 🙏
Me too
Thank you to Sounds true also 🙏😊
