As a rule follower and a goal-oriented individual Tyler discovers how Dhamma allows him to relax and enjoy experience rather than compare and judge it to "the set of standards".

Dhammarato and Joni talk about Right Livelihood as a part of the method for freedom. They discuss how it is in your power to make a job noble by changing your own attitude. Dhammarato states that a more wholesome job is to make friends with everyone within your work environment, including janitors and clerks. In the end, Joni dials in on a concept of Mudita, or Sympathetic Joy, which is an antidote to jealousy as well as a way to "make the medicine go down".

Dhammarato answers Peter's questions about how the practice of Anapanasati plays into the 8 Fold Noble Path. In breaking down the building blocks of the Path, Dhammarato pays an acute attention to the Right Effort of "bending the limb" by intentionally getting rid of the "big gray booger" aka junk thoughts. Another metaphor Dhammarato uses as a result of the practice is "sea legs" of Upekkha - the dynamic balance that allows one to handle the high seas of life.
