Keith Norris | 7 Pillars to Optimizing Your Health, Expanding Your Mind, and Reclaiming Your Freedom KKP: 326

Oct 22, 2021

Today, I am blessed to have with me for the second time Keith Norris. He is the co-founder (along with his amazing wife, Michelle) of the world’s largest and most well-known Paleo event, Paleo f(x), in Austin, Texas.

This event boasts the Blue Bloods – the crème de la crème – of the Paleo world, as well as other super high level experts in the area of the health, fitness, supplements, training & exercise, functional exercise – a list of the who’s who so dense and full of important health information.

While Keith’s Paleo f(x) offers way more than the internationally known Paleo f(x) event, the Paleo f(x) event is his baby, a grass roots ground-up entrepreneurial effort that started as nothing more than a seedling idea several years ago, an idea that nearly failed, that Keith willed to survive that has grown into what is now an internationally known, highly respected and largest event of its kind anywhere.

In this episode, Keith opens the show by describing the inspiration behind his book, Primal Uprising. We jump into each pillar that Keith introduces in his book: physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, financial, relational, and tribal. Plus, Keith talks about the importance of affirmations and staying in the present moment. We also dive deep into the subconscious and how you can truly create lasting habits. Lastly, Keith gives us the scoop on his massive event, Paleo f(x); get your tickets here: https://www.paleofx.com/paleo-fx-event/.

[14:45] The Physical Pillar: Dial-In and Listen To Your Body

  • Eat right and exercise.
  • Listen to your body.
  • Your body is talking to you 24/7. It is the most intelligent aspect of ourselves.
  • The body and the subconscious mind know everything about us.
  • The subconscious mind is responsible for 95% of your day-to-day actions. The subconscious mind accepts everything as truth.
  • To have an effective habit change, you have to go into the subconscious mind and rewrite the story.
  • Actions steps:
    • Choose whatever workout you will do daily.
    • Pick a diet that is healthy for a human being.
    • Rewrite the stories that are in your head.

[27:00] The Mental Pillar: Embracing The Present Moment

  • You are the captain of your mental capacity.
  • The ego is a very important tool; it’s the CEO of your mind.
  • For the most part, people operate on the daily because of the actions of their ego.
  • You shouldn’t kill the ego; instead, you need to put your ego in check.
  • Also, being adaptive and being resilient are very important aspects of the mind.
  • If someone is suffering from depression or anxiety, then they need to find the present.
  • The only thing we have control over is the present.

[33:00] Affirmations Will Help You Be More Present

  • Affirmations help bring us into the present.
  • Keith’s favorite affirmation is “I am.”
  • Focusing on your breath will also be beneficial.
  • Once you’re in the present, there is no past, and there is no future.

[36:40] The Emotional Pillar: Learn How To Have Hard Discussions With People You Disagree With

  • People can’t have hard discussions anymore.
  • The littlest things will get people offended.
  • We should live in a society where we can have discussions with people we disagree with.
  • One way to improve your emotional pillar is by doing a deep dive into an argument that you believe. However, you should be researching the other side of that argument.

[41:30] The Spiritual Pillar: Find Your Relationship With Other

  • The spiritual pillar is your relationship with ‘other.’
  • Many people choose science as their relationship with other.
  • There needs to be an entity that is higher than you.
  • You can access the other through prayer or meditation.
  • Spirituality does not need to be religion.

[44:50] The Financial Pillar: Money Is Freedom

  • “Money is not the root of all evil; evil thought is the root of all evil.” -Keith
  • Money won’t bring you happiness. However, you might be happier if you had money to create freedom.
  • Money will be a magnifying to who you actually are.
  • If you are a good person, money will be a tool to let you help more people.

[51:00] The Relational Pillar and The Tribal Pillar:

  • The relational pillar is your personal relationship with somebody else.
  • You want to surround yourself with people that you aspire to be like.
  • If you're doing what you love, and you're providing a good service, the money is going to come. Those are the types of people that Keith likes to surround himself with.
  • Keith recommends reading the book, Tribe. You can find it here: http://www.sebastianjunger.com/tribe-by-sebastian-junger
