Send me a message Feeling like everything is falling apart? It might not be a crisis — it might be your soul waking up. In this podcast, I explore why a midlife crisis is often the first step toward a profound spiritual awakening. We’ll discuss the signs of this transition, how to navigate the existential dread, and how to find lasting peace through meditation and self-discovery. If you’re questioning your…
It’s important to understand that we are all people, and there is no “them versus me.” Bad people think they’re good people, and good people can think they’re bad people. It depends on what day you see someone. People are both. We’re human beings, and there is no me versus them. That separation is part of the creation of conflict, an illusion of duality that makes us feel superior and…
From Path to Peace With Todd Perelmuter Newsletter Hello my friend, What did you do this morning? Before your real day began? When it was just you, your choices, your time? Was it enriching? Life fulfilling? Energizing? Healthy? Productive? Peaceful? I have not always been great at mornings. I would start the day scrolling negative things on my phone, like the news or social media. Or check emails and see…

From Path to Peace With Todd Perelmuter Newsletter Hello my friend, Often in life, our desire for happiness makes us even more unhappy. When I first went off on my spiritual adventures around the world, I was traveling alone. After a few months of being on my own, seeing a group of friends talking and laughing would make me jealous and sad. Being alone didn’t make me sad. Wanting happiness…
Human beings are remarkably good at thinking. We are so good at it that we do it whether we want to or not. We do it practically 24/7. At least every second of our waking life is practically 100% consumed by thinking. Unless we’re doing some activity that forces us into the present moment, we are pretty much always lost in thought. Those activities that take us out of our…
From Path to Peace With Todd Perelmuter Newsletter Hello my friend, Life is action. We live in a dimension of action. Every atom in this physical universe vibrates trillions of times per second. Taking action, working hard, making choices, repairing relationships and physical structures, and taking care of ourselves and others, are required of us constantly. The more we resist action, the more we suffer. Why resist a natural part…
Send me a message Have you ever felt the overwhelming urge to leave it all behind — your job, your marriage, your city? We often think happiness is just one move away, but what if the "prison" isn't the place you’re in, but the patterns of your own mind? In this deep reflection, Todd Perelmuter explores the "sadness illusion": the belief that changing our external circumstances will fix our internal…
What Should You Do When You Feel Hopeless?Hope is a funny thing. We like it, we crave it, and we feel we need it. But when things don’t go as we hoped, we suffer. Getting our hopes up and to have them crushed, over and over again, can be agonizing. So, what are we to do?The problem with hope is that wanting it causes our feelings of hopelessness. When we…
From Path to Peace With Todd Perelmuter Newsletter Hello my friend, What came first, the chicken or the egg? In this case, the chicken is an experience in our life. The egg is the mindset we have about the experience. When I was a young writer in advertising and we had to pull all-nighters, like it would for most anybody, it stressed me out. On the Fridays that we’d find…
