Life Energy 101

What if the reason your life feels harder than it needs to… isn’t your schedule, your job, or even your mindset?

What if it’s your life energy?

In this episode, Justin Wenck, PhD, breaks down one of the most important concepts he’s ever shared on the show: the idea that your entire life runs on energy — not just physical energy, but emotional, mental, and the more subtle connections.

Drawing on his background in electrical engineering, Justin explains why the human system is far more advanced than any piece of technology we’ve built — and why learning to work with your own energy can change everything.

If you’ve been feeling disconnected, drained, overwhelmed, or just not quite like yourself, this episode gives you a new lens to understand what’s really going on… and what you can actually do about it.

Key Points and Takeaways

• Why life energy is more than just “feeling energized”
• How the human system works like a far more advanced version of a phone: power, signal, information, and connection all matter
• Why your body, emotions, intuition, and thoughts are all expressions of energy
• How disconnection drains you, just like a phone constantly searching for signal
• Why changing your energetic connection can shift your life faster than trying to force everything physically
• The difference between surviving on low battery and actually being connected to what fuels you
• How Justin’s Life Energy Activation Process (LEAP) helps create a reset in just 4 minutes
• Why a small, repeatable practice can create major compound results over time

Justin Wenck: 0:00

Today I'm talking about something that is incredibly important. In fact, it might be the most important thing that I've ever talked about, because really, your entire life is based on this, and many of you don't even know it yet. Once you start to understand what I'm about to explain today, you're going to see how your life is, how it is and how it can start to become what it is you would like it to be. So what is it I'm going to be talking about that is so mysterious, yet so incredibly important. Today I am talking about life energy. Are you ready to live a life with enough time, money and energy? Have relationships and connections that delight you. Are you ready for the extraordinary life you know you've been missing? If so, then this is the place for you. I'm a best selling author, coach, consultant and speaker who's worked in technology for over two decades. I'm a leader at transforming people and organizations from operating in fear, obligation and guilt to running off joy, ease and love, it's time for engineering emotions and energy with me. Justin Wenck, PhD, let's get started. What What exactly is life energy and why is this so important? What do I mean by that? So my background is in electrical engineering, and I'm bringing this episode to you from near San Francisco, so I'm here briefly in between trips to South America. So I hope you've enjoyed the episodes that were in Colombia and in Chile, and getting ready to head of off to Greece. So you'll likely get to see some some podcasts recorded in Greece. So make sure you know you're subscribed and following and all that stuff. And so what exactly is life energy? Well, I like to think of the human system very much like, like a cell phone, and so it's, you know, I'm recording this actually using a camera from my cell phone, because it's such a good camera, just like your eyes are so incredibly good, yet, if the phone could just see, but it can't do anything with what it sees or make sense of anything that It sees. It's not, it's not very useful, right? Similar to us, like we have to have connections, you know, internally and externally, and like a phone we need, we need energy that is going to, you know, power us. But then I'm going to get a little technical, but without getting technical, because many of you know, my background is in electrical engineering. My doctorate is as an electrical engineer, and I've worked, you know, in large tech companies in that field. And really one of my expertise was complex systems and their programming. And now I've just switched that focus to the most complex system in known existence, which is the human system, which is us. And so a lot of the principles, because I've talked on this podcast before about the principle of correspondence, the hermetic principle of as within, so without, as above, so below, and so which briefly summarizes that something that has, that happens in one realm, you know, is applicable in other realm. So a lot of these principles that I've I've learned as an electrical engineer, they apply to the human system. So as with a as with a phone, so with a human actually, but a human system is so much more elegant, amazing, beautiful power, and there's so much more that we don't even know about that it actually will make the phones that you use just seem like, almost like, you know, calculate a simple calculator, but like, there's, you know, energy that, you know, powers the phone. The powers are our human system. There's another concept of of information, you know, like, Well, what do you know? What do you remember? And you know, on a phone, you think of this as, like, you know, it's the stored picture, or it's the getting the message, you know. So it's like, there's ever but really, information is also just energy. It's takes energy to store, it takes energy to read, it takes energy to transmit. And so if we take this concept to the human system, anything that you know, anything that you've learned, anything that comes to you intuitively, is also energy. So that energy that it requires you to, you know, get up, to lift something that's a form of energy, but then also what you're inspired to do, what you're scared to do, your emotions, your energy in motion. That's also energy life. Energy is the all encompassing term for the energy that is basically you. And what could be you when what has been you? Because another thing you know, again, I'm you get a little technical, but not technically. You don't, you know, but we. Know, from from physics. You know, this is one of the things Einstein came up with. And in some ways, he maybe wasn't. There was a lot of things Einstein discovered that he's like, how this makes me uncomfortable. I don't like this. This wasn't one of them. But basically, that energy and our material world, mass, they're related. That's the famous E equals MC squared, that that mass that matter is is basically can be converted to energy. So the physical world, anything that you're touching, that you are physically, although we also know that there's not a whole lot of us here that the 99% plus whatever of all of the world that we think is so solid is actually just empty space. And so when we you're like, Okay, Justin, what's, what's the point of all this? That everything, that everything is, is energy. The point of this is, is that if you become aware and you start to be open to, well, what if I start working with the energy, which is basically all of you and all of your world in a different way. It allows your world to shift much more easily, much more elegantly, and allows you to have the experience, have the life, have the world, the relationships, the connections that you would like. Because effectively, those are all energetic, whether and a lot of this is like, you don't necessarily have to believe it, just kind of like, you know, electromagnetism. It's always existed as long as this planet has been here. Yet it's only a relatively short amount of time that humans have been able to work with it, to measure it, to harness it, to do things with it. And so it's very conceivable that there could be other things that are able to be known, measured, worked with, that we don't have human created tools to let us measure them right. Yet, the human system, the human body, is actually, it's a tool. It's a technology like, you know, it's able to impact the environment, and it's able to take measurements from the environment, and it's way more advanced than the phone that I began to talk with. Like, we are able to transmit information. We're able to receive information, and then we need energy to, you know, to fuel us to do the mechanisms, the processes, the things to go about our life, right? And so there's other ways. Just like your phone has multiple ways to power up, so does the human system, like we think that it's, oh, I just need to, you know, eat food, and that's, that's what's going to make me feel energized. Yet, there's so much more to that than just the food, wheat, it's, it's, can be a very big part. Yet, energy is coming from, you know, the sun, from our other aspects of our environment. And then there's the information aspect of, you know, so I've just been traveling in South America. I've take my phone with me yet, if I go somewhere different and I don't do something different with my phone, if I don't calibrate correctly, one of two things happens, either I have no signal where I go right, or maybe I have to pay a big price. So I'm on a company where if I go and I don't do anything. I just get charged $10 a day to use, to use my phone. But, you know, I could get another SIM card, or I could get, you know, different things. Yet when I'm somewhere different, and I have this amazing, you know, equipment of a phone, I take it somewhere that maybe is not the best. You know, in rural areas like the phone doesn't work as well, right? Because the the connection is is not as fast, it's not as vibrant, and so I'm not able to get the functionality that I want. And our human system is is very, very similar in that if you aren't consciously connecting to the service provider, if you will, that is designed for your hardware. You are going to be getting, you're not going to be getting as much information. It's going to take you a lot more energy, because it's one of those things that it's funny, you know, go on a hike where there's no service, and the phone, the phone continues to try to connect, to try to get it wants to connect just like we want to connect. Yet it has to work so hard, but there's nothing out there to connect to. And so the battery gets drained. And we can, we have that often too, where if we're trying to connect, trying to connect, but we don't have the method to connect with what we're wanting to connect with, it's a huge drain. And so how many of you out there feel is you're disconnected, you're drained, you're not feeling satisfied, you're not feeling like you're getting the information so that you can feel joyful, feel like you're in a state of ease and feeling like you're loving your life, because that's the natural state you're meant to be. That's what you are designed to experience. Yet it requires that you. Have the correct energetic connections to to your world. And so, a little bit more on, you know, what are these energetic connections, and how do they? Because it's one of these things, like, we still like to think that, well, it's just whatever is the physicality, that's what matters. But you know, if we look at, you know, the DNA of like it, of like an oak tree, of like an acorn, of a thriving tree and of a tree that's sick or dying, they contain the exact same, you know, DNA, you know potential, right? And it might even be two trees right next to each other, and one's thriving and the other is dying. And so it's like, even like, well, there's something with the environment. There could even be an acorn that's right there yet three very different forms, but the same, the same, you know, from the physical level, same DNA, same potential. What is what is changing? And that is the life energy that each of those instantiations is able to, is supported by, connected into, able to utilize, to become whatever it is or will be or has been. And so when you become conscious and aware and start to work on this level that like, Oh, I could refuel my human battery in different ways, and I can connect to different connections, like intuition, different emotional states on a much more conscious level of being aware that these matter, these are important, these are possibilities. And you might be going like, how the how do I do that? That's what I'm going to get to here in a little bit. It's just start to believe in the possibility. And it's one of these things. I'm not really asking you to believe. It's one of those. I'm asking you to think that it's possible, and then I'm going to tell you ways that it can actually be something that gives you very fast, very meaningful changes in your life, where you can go from feeling depleted, tired, frustrated, angry, scared, obligated, guilty, whatever it is, it's you're just like, you know, I have, I have these. I have these pillows here that have like emotions and things like this. And they, they have, you know, they call them good emotions and bad emotions. And we're just going to leave it at that for this, for this episode, but you want to be able to experience more of the good, the good emotions, and starting to be open to life energy and how that is working for you or not for you, and recognizing that you can shift it. You can you can tap into just like when you take your phone to another country, you can say, Oh, I'm going to tap into another cell network, or I'm going to tap into Wi Fi, and then all of a sudden it's like, oh my gosh, this is this phone's amazing. The battery life lasts forever. I'm able to, you know, get the information, do the tasks, all the things that I want. The human system is very, very similar, if not more, more powerful, because it's more complex and also has a lot more, lot more years of engineering by, you know, various various ways, evolutionary biology, whatever you want to go with. It doesn't matter how the system is, what how it is, it is how it is. And when you learn how to work the system by learning to work with life energy, it becomes whole lot more enjoyable to utilize it. It's kind of like some of some of you maybe know how to, you know, drive a car or ride a bike, but you know, if you don't know if you're learning or it, none of these things are fun. It's not fun to ride a bike if you don't know how to ride it's not fun to drive a car if you don't know how to drive a car. But if you learn these things and get proficient. They become immensely enjoyable, such as being a human in a human body with a human system. So you might be going like, Well, how do I start to work with this? And it's one of these things that I've basically, you know, my whole life has been sort of devoted to working with these principles indirectly. And then, more recently, in the last several years, way more directly. And so I've developed an incredibly powerful life changing tool that will allow you to basically get disconnected from any any energetic connections, any life energy connections that are not serving you, if only for a little bit so you can get some calm, clarity, comfort, to recharge, to repower and connect, so that you can have the intuition and the knowing of, okay, here's what I do next, and these little shifts, they compound just like interest in a bank account compounds, and you'll start to notice that you're connected to what fuels you much more often than not, you'll start to connect to people places that are much, much more enjoyable and beneficial to the life that you want to you want to have. And so I've talked about this a little bit, and. Done many programs, taught many people this, and I'm starting to teach more, but it's the life energy activation process is an incredible tool that I've developed. I use it multiple times a day, and it only takes four minutes to practice the life energy activation process, or LEAP, as I'm calling it, and so you just do a four minute practice of LEAP, and it's like complete complete reset. And it's you can do it anywhere, anytime, and it really does for you energetically, what kind of like a reset of your phone does for your phone? Because sometimes just you ever use your phone, and it's just like, why is it not connecting to the Bluetooth, or why is this app acting weird? And then you just, you just do a reset the phone, and two minutes later, everything just magically works. This is what leap does, will do for you. It's what it does does for me, it's what it does for the many, many people that have taught and if you're like, I'm I'm interested. I do have an upcoming live event that I'll be teaching this at, a workshop. I call it like the four level recharge, because it's really does work on the four key levels, which is your physical level, your emotional level, how you feel, your mental level, the thoughts, and then also the energy level, the life energy level, which is honestly whether you want to believe it or not, that's the most fundamental level, because all the other levels are actually built upon that. Yet, even if you don't believe about it, care about it, it works on these other levels. And so you feel great. You move your body, and you can do it anywhere, anytime. And the workshop to learn, it only takes one hour. And so it's the four level recharge. It's going to be happening in Pacifica at Ocean yoga on May 2 1pm and it's just one hour. So if you are in the Bay Area, highly, highly advise you to sign up for that. If you're not, I do do this virtually at times. So make sure that you're, like, on my mailing list, that you're following my posts, or even just, you know, send me an email, send me a message. Say, Justin, I want to know this life energy activation process I want. I want leap. I want this tool that does in four minutes I can, you know, get, like, a reset, a recharge, and really start to, you know, let things be easier and more impactful, because it's not just about zenning out and being blissed out. It's about knowing that you you can do what it is you're meant to do and to enjoy it along the way and with people that you you love and care about, because that's what the human system is really all about. It's what it's engineered to do. That's why my book is called engineered to love. And so I'm really, you know, excited to start sharing this, this tool, the sleep tool, with more and more people, because I'm telling you, I've, I've, I've tried so many things over, over the years. And, you know, being someone who's been incredibly busy, and, you know, from depression, anxiety, fearful, all these things. This is something that just works, and it works for somebody who's busy, because, again, it only just takes four minutes to do, and they can, you know, teach it to you in an hour. And so really would encourage you to, you know, make sure you're on my list. Sign up for that workshop. Make sure that we have the links and things like that available on my website, wherever you're seeing this. So, yeah, life energy, it's incredibly important. Yet it doesn't have to be a complicated you don't have to go, you know, study, you know, years in India or wherever. It's something that you can start to work with, you know, learn something and as little as an hour, and something you can practice in just four minutes, as often or as little, because it's incredibly powerful. So a little goes a long way. Yet the more you like anything like working out the body physically, the more you do it over time, the results compound. And I really want you to enjoy these beautiful, wonderful results. So with that, love to hear what you think and if you're interested. And again, my next stop is be at Athens, Greece for a while. So looking forward to doing a podcast or two from there, checking that out. Really, it was incredibly enjoyable to be in Colombia and Chile, and just see some really incredible different parts of this world. And yeah, and it's different places are very different. And it's one of the things I love, being able to go around the world and capture these experiences. And, you know, the energies, because the different locations have different energies, and I'm continuously making the life energy activation process more powerful, more beneficial. And you don't have to do anything just you, you just got to learn the process. And you get, you get the benefits as it continues to get better. It very is much like you know on your phone, you. You get a good phone, and you have a good connection, and you do a little maintenance, and you know, the phone provider provides updates for you, such as this. So I would really like to get you plugged into your ideal life energy with the my leap and, yeah, like to hear what you've been thinking about, the the travel so far. And if there's anything you know you'd like more of on the show, and definitely do remember to rate, subscribe, follow all that stuff, share with a friend or share with a colleague.
