THE PITWALKER PODCAST

Within every human being is the desire to BECOME MORE - the desire to become who God created us to be. Within each of us is also a PIT - a dark place of past experiences where fear, anger, blame, guilt, and shame live. As we strive to become, eventually we encounter the edge of our pit and we experience a feeling of bondage, of being held back, of being STUCK. At this point we have a choice to either retreat and accept an ordinary, cyclical existence, or to face our pit, walk into it, break the

So now we come to the conclusion of the pitwalking process as we wrap up Season 1 of this podcast. In this episode I review the entire process of walking through the pit - the PITWALKER formula. In the final step of the process we come to understand that the VISION we saw in our pit in conjunction with the new REVELATION of TRUTH that set us free to see new POSSIBILITIES and choose a new PATH… that this vision is in fact the PURPOSE we are called to live at this stage of our journey.

The Voice of TRUTH from the DIVINITY IN OUR HEART has delivered to us a MESSAGE inside the prison in our pit, and that message SETS US FREE because it changes the lens that has driven the thoughts that have kept us in a cycle of bondage. This message shatters our prison bars by giving us a NEW LENS, and with this new lens we survey the landscape of our pit and find that an entirely NEW POSSIBILITY has opened up to us. A NEW POSSIBILITY… with NEW POWER… to walk a NEW PATH… out of our PIT.

The AWAKENING has begun. The Voice has in our heart has spoken something NEW into us that has set us FREE. The problem is that we are not used to listening to this Voice, or even hearing it in the first place. The voices in our head and the noise in the environment around us mostly drown it out. So how do we know that we are actually hearing The Voice and not the voices? In this podcast I lay out the litmus tests I use to distinguish the Voice from the voices: Freedom vs bondage

Now we have come to the APEX of the pitwalking process. All the work up to this point has been to prepare the way for us to hear a NEW voice - the VOICE IN OUR HEART. To hear this Voice, the Voice of the divinity within us, we had to face our PAIN, expose it like a raw nerve, and release it. In doing so, we encountered our PRISON - the LIE about ourself that we have held onto; the lie that has kept us in BONDAGE. But a NEW TRUTH is awaiting. The LIGHT in our heart shines forth in our

Have you ever gone back to a place you remember from when you were a kid? Did you notice that it wasn’t the same as you remember it? It’s the same with the painful memories of the past in our pit. After we experienced the initial trauma or drama, a thought entered our minds - a thought often related to not being enough or being alone - and we chose to believe that thought. Our belief in that thought gave it the power to become the reality that we have lived in ever since - the self

Most of us have suppressed our feelings for so long that we have the emotional equivalent of an impacted colon - a colon that is full of shit. If we don’t poop physically for a few weeks it becomes a serious medical condition. Much longer than that and we would die of toxicity. It is the same when we don’t move emotions through and out of us. After not just weeks or months, but years and even decades of suppression, we become emotionally and psychologically toxic.

For most of our lives we have been taught that it is not ok to feel and to express our feelings, and we have conformed and complied, choosing to suppress our emotions for years and even decades. The end result is that we become emotionally CONSTIPATED. In this constipated state, when we get triggered, we either try to stuff the triggered feelings, adding more shit to an already overflowing shitbag inside of us, or, if we just can't handle it anymore, we EXPLODE our suppressed shit all over

Once we use the feelings to connect us to the root memory behind our current trigger, it's time to open our eyes to SEE the SCENE in our pit. You may think it is scary to actually look at what happened - in fact, your mind may have been blocking out the memory for a long time - but you are already feeling the feelings in your pit, so it can't get any worse. Once you are in the scene, take out your journal and write out every detail, as if you are writing it for a movie. Seeing is

Feelings are the access point to the prison in our pit. Without feeling we're not even in the game of life, let alone the game of growth. Every emotion creates sensations in particular areas of our body, and these sensations store memories from our past. As we go through the process of pitwalking, the feelings we need to pay special attention to are the (recurring) triggers in our lives that have us stuck in patterns of behaviors that are no longer serving us.

We live in a culture that tells us it's not ok to feel, and this culture of SUPPRESSION and SEDATION has resulted in a society where most people have never even set foot on the pathway of liberation. Being stuck in our lives starts with INTERNALIZING and TRAPPING our feelings. Those feelings are tied to BELIEFS that we have created about ourselves, and those EMOTIONALLY CHARGED BELIEFS are the PRISON that we live in. The access point to our belief prison is through our feelings, and the

We have been taught throughout our lives - men especially - that it's not ok to feel…that feeling in somehow bad or weak. So we SUPPRESS our feelings and seek out ways to numb the internalized pain, to SEDATE. Our culture has become a CULTURE OF SEDATION, with the internet and social media giving us access to mechanisms of sedation on a level never before seen in human history. Whether it's drinking, drugs, porn, Facebook, Instagram, Netflix, the news, working out, work etc. if you are a

Facing the things of the past that we have pushed down inside us, identifying and itemizing the experiences and feelings, and then telling the truth to someone about what happened - this is the hardest part of walking into our pit. Why? Because we fear the unknown. Because for years or even decades our mind has convinced us that it is safer to hide these things away in the dark. Because we just weren't ready to or didn't have the tools to deal with them. But at some point we realize that

You've heard the famous verse "You shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free." Well, knowing the truth and telling the truth are two very different things. The pitwalking process involves both, but at this stage of the journey we are going to begin telling the truth. And TELLING THE TRUTH doesn't set you free, it SENDS YOU DOWN INTO THE PIT. Remember, there is no way around the pit. The only way to become the person you are created to be is to walk through the pit. So

The final room, the one I avoided until the last possible minute, was the dreaded tool room and the 20 years of tools and miscellaneous shit that I'd accumulated. It was overwhelming until I rolled up my sleeves and started unpacking and itemizing what was really there. You've looked at your life and what is currently holding you back, you've named some of the shit festering inside you, and you've identified some of the rooms in your "pit house." Now it's time to start unpacking to find out

It's been a hell of a week. From an auction to a broken leg to a death in the family, a perfect storm has set in around me. In preparing to sell all our possessions for a one year RV trip, I went through every room in my house assessing what to keep and put in storage, what to take with us, and what to sell. It was a painstaking process - one that that took over 20 years to get me to the point where I was ready to do it. Our pit is much the same. Like a house full of rooms where we've

What's eating at you inside? What's causing you to sedate - to numb out drinking, watching, binging, working etc.? The answers to these questions are the entrance to your pit. Some of the things that trouble us are more recent. Others go way back and have been FESTERING inside of us for decades. And others are so deeply buried within us that our conscious mind has all but forgotten them, yet they lurk in the dark recesses of our subconscious. These unnamed things within us either lead

I recently had an experience that triggered my worst fear - being buried alive. As my nightmare unfolded, every fiber of my being wanted to run away, but my heart told me to stay. In that moment I chose to submit to my heart, and what I found was light in the darkness that liberated me from a particular bondage that went all the way back to my birth experience. The pit is not a one time experience or a giant crater in our soul. The pit is something we experience over and over again and it has

What is the PIT? As we begin this journey it's important to define what I mean when I use this term. I remember one night about 12 years ago lying in my bed staring at the ceiling and feeling the acid of my anger burning in my stomach. In that moment I knew that if I did not fix what was eating me up inside, I would have cancer in 5-10 years. As I began the descent into my darkness to try to find some healing and relief, I started to see that all my CURRENT TRIGGERS were TIED to my PAST

If so, you are encountering what I call the "PIT" - the dark place of our past experiences that holds us back. As I encountered my pit in my early 30's, filled with anger and resentment from the past that led to deep depression and darkness, I eventually found that my pit was rooted in my
