“Breathe To Feel”: Josh Pais Returns To Discuss His Book, “Lose Your Mind: The Path to Creative Invincibility”
Josh Pais returns to the podcast (first time was Ep. 77). Aside from being one of the most respected actors in the game, with over 150 credits in film and TV, Pais is the founder of Committed Impulse, a groundbreaking training born from his own acting process that has since become a “secret weapon” for thousands of top entrepreneurs, artists, doctors, lawyers, public speakers, and creators of all kinds. His work helps people break free from the tyranny of overthinking and drop into a state of embodied, spontaneous brilliance. And now—he has written a book! In Lose Your Mind: The Path to Creative Invincibility, he shows us how to stop letting fear and anxiety run the show, and start trusting the moment. On this episode, he takes us on a deep dive into many of the most helpful aspects of the book—the four-step system to activate “peak presence,” the hidden advantage of nervousness, the importance of “breathing to feel,” and much more—giving everyone (but especially actors) the tools to step out of the limiting paradigm of the mind and embrace a level of aliveness and spontaneity that we didn’t know was possible. Lose Your Mind is available on September 30th.
