Episode Details

What if every emotion—yes, every one—could be used as fuel for presence?

In this episode, Orin and Mira explore the surprising idea that all emotions, not just the painful or difficult ones, can become gateways to awakening. Drawing from E.J. Gold’s The Human Biological Machine as a Transformational Apparatus and Invocation of Presence, they unpack the Work’s definition of “negative emotion,” the trap of identification, and the liberating practice of using energy—not suppressing it—to invoke presence.

Along the way, they discuss:

Why even joy can be mechanical

How to work with emotions without labeling them “good” or “bad”

A practice that turns emotional charge into conscious awareness

What shifts when we stop trying to manage our feelings—and start using them

Whether you're in the middle of a storm or basking in a moment of happiness, this episode is an invitation to go deeper, see more clearly, and wake up to the power already moving through you.
