Path to Peace with Todd Perelmuter
Having seen so many around me suffering from stress, addiction, suicidal thoughts, anxiety and depression, I decided to embark upon a 9-year journey that would take me to over 35 countries living with and learning from shamans, gurus, monks and tribes. I studied 16 religions and spiritualities, ancient wisdom and modern science, and spent 50 days meditating in total solitude, all in an effort to discover the secrets to a peaceful mind.
If you’re ready to let go of your negative thoughts and the baggage that is weighing you down, if you’re ready for a life filled with joy, purpose and meaning, please join me on the Path to Peace with Todd Perelmuter.

Green Grass Syndrome: How to Break Free from Comparison
Our friends, family, neighbors, community, society and the media all tell us what makes a perfect life. It's inescapable. We're supposed to graduate at 18, go to college, get rich, get married, get a house and 2.5 kids all by the time we're 30. We're supposed to remain in the same profession until we retire at 60. And if we do it all just right, we'll be happy.
But human beings are not all the same. What if following the plans of someone else doesn't make us happy? What if our life doesn't line up with society's schedule? How can we follow our own path without letting down our parents and family? And how can we be sure we'll find happiness on an uncharted journey into the complete unknown?
In this podcast, I talk about these questions and more. I discuss what prevents us from being truly happy, why we feel the need to follow someone else's path, and how we can discover the bigger life that was meant for us. I share how to overcome the fear that stops us. And I talk about how to stop always comparing our life to other people's and to what could've been, so we can enjoy the one and only brief ride we have on this remarkable planet.
