When she began to meditate on a regular basis at 30 years old and also practice mindfulness many new experiences opened for her. She became aware of a deeper reality within her own being and she also had many higher dimensional experiences. She realized she was connected to many higher dimensional beings. She became aware of many resources from beyond this 3rd dimension world. She had personal experiences with some of the soul groups and her own light group from a high dimension. Those in that light group made many contacts with her over her life. Some of those beings came in groups and others made individual contacts. She was often aware when she saw them that she loved and missed them. Her first remembered experiences were at 7 years old when she and a younger sister saw and interacted with brilliant light beings from higher dimensions for a few nights. Later as an adult many of those beings made contact with her. The most contacts were made by the ancient mentor of that light group. She was given energy and healings by that ancient mentor and he also assisted her in creative activities by sometimes showing her scenes from higher dimensions that put her in new phrases of creativity. She often expressed some of those experiences in painting. She recorded many of those experiences over the decades and wrote about them in the book “Visions of a Star Traveler.” by J.M.Vessard available on Amazon and in many other places.

During our conversation, Vivian opens up about her life's pivotal moments, from leaving her husband while battling meningitis to overcoming a severe back injury and being diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer. She introduces us to the self-care techniques that have been game-changers for her, including Holosync, a meditation technology using binaural beats, and paraliminals, audio tools designed to address specific mental and emotional challenges. Tune in to hear Vivianne's compelling story and discover practical self-care strategies that can elevate your everyday life and help you navigate difficult times. This is not just another interview.

For individuals struggling with conventional meditation, Holosync offers an alternative path to achieving mental stillness and clarity. The key takeaway here is that different tools work for different people, and it's essential to find what resonates with you. - Exploring Paraliminals: Tailored Self-Care: Paraliminals are valuable because they can be tailored to address various personal challenges. Whether someone is dealing with career changes, emotional distress, or physical health issues, there's likely a paraliminal designed to help. The versatility and accessibility of paraliminals make them a powerful addition to anyone's self-care toolkit. - Experiencing Awe: The Transformative Power: This method, rooted in the book "The Power of Awe," involves a simple process: Attention, Wait, and Expand. Practicing awe regularly can reduce anxiety, improve mood, and even positively affect physical health. - The Self-Care Imperative: Vivianne's journey underscores the importance of having a reliable set of self-care tools. Whether it's viewing challenges as adventures, utilizing Holosync for instant meditation, exploring targeted paraliminals, or practicing the power of awe, these tools can make a significant difference in managing crises and enhancing everyday life.

16 Apr 2024 | Meditation Mastery: Unveiling Purpose And The Journey Beyond the Ego With Neill Elliott | 00:37:09 | |||||
"Mindful You" with Alan Carroll invites listeners on a journey of self-discovery and inner peace. In this episode, Alan sits down with meditation expert Neill Elliott to explore the transformative power of meditation. Together, they delve into the purpose of meditation, uncovering its profound benefits for both mind and body. From honing the skill of focused attention to unraveling the mysteries of the ego, Neill offers insights and practical tips for cultivating mindfulness in everyday life. Tune in as they unravel the layers of consciousness and embark on a quest for clarity and enlightenment. About The Guest: To any outsider, D. Neil Elliott was highly educated, owned a profitable consulting firm, and had a successful career and an amazing wife and family. But things were not all they seemed to be … Neil was facing a lot of challenges. In a phrase, he was in a dark place. Quite by accident, he discovered a Higher Road. As he traveled that road, he found the key to transforming his life. Over the course of the following year, Neil lifted himself to an inner state of love, peace, joy, and abundance. His perspectives on life changed entirely. His troubles and tribulations were his impetus to find the key that enabled him to revolutionize his life. He learned that the search for a better life does not entail positive thinking, saying affirmations, chanting mantras, or traveling to India to sit at the feet of a guru—or any other popularized method of “finding yourself.” …The key? To ascend in both spiritual perception and truth, you need to use the right process to break through your entrenched, human-ego barriers. For nearly three decades, Neil read hundreds of self-help and spiritual books and took self-development courses. All of them offered hope for change and improvement, but nothing fulfilled his needs or genuinely delivered on its promises. Neil’s desire—and his new mission in life—is to share the knowledge he gained and the process he used on his journey to self-awareness, together with the blueprint document he discovered that was instrumental in transforming his life. He wants to give you, regardless of your station in life, the tools and opportunity to empower yourself, transform your life, and draw peace, joy, love, and prosperity into your personal situation and environment. Neil believes that as more and more people follow this Higher Road to true spiritual perfection, a New Era of Love and Peace will dawn for everyone throughout the world.

30 Jul 2024 | Spiritual Growth and Love through a Buddhist Lens: A Conversation with Zach Beach | 00:22:25 | |||||
Welcome back to another enlightening episode of the Mindful You podcast. I’m your host, Alan Carroll, and today we have the honor of speaking with Zach Beach, a seasoned traveler on the mindfulness path. Zach holds a master’s degree from the California Institute of Integral Studies and has immersed himself in various advanced meditation and yoga practices throughout Asia. His journey centers around the profound exploration of love and the projection of loving energy. In this episode, Zach shares deep insights into love, projection, and the critical differences between judgment and discernment in our interactions. We delve into the teachings of Carl Jung, the Buddhist philosophy of impermanence and non-attachment, and how our perceptions shape our reality. Zach eloquently discusses how inner peace and self-love reflect outwardly, emphasizing the importance of compassion as a starting point for personal and collective healing. Join us as we navigate the intricate tapestry of mindfulness, spiritual practice, and the quest for a joyful reality. Prepare to be inspired by Zach’s wisdom and enlightened perspective. Sit back, relax, and let’s embark on this journey together. This episode is a deep dive into: 🌟 Understanding Projection: Zach elucidates how our own hidden qualities often get projected onto others, affecting our perceptions and interactions. Insightfully tying this concept to Carl Jung's idea of the shadow, it’s a reminder to look within and address our inner world to improve our outer interactions. 🌟 Defining Love and Space: Borrowing from Mortar Earhart, love is about giving people the space to be who they are, without imposing our expectations. This concept encourages active listening and acceptance, which are crucial for genuine relationships. 🌟 Discernment vs. Judgment: Zach takes us on a journey through Buddhist thought, highlighting the difference between discernment and judgment. He emphasizes the importance of meeting reality as it is, without the biases of attachment or aversion—a balanced middle path that leads to a more compassionate and understanding outlook on life. This episode was packed with gems of wisdom that can transform how we view and interact with the world around us. I highly recommend tuning in for a deep dive into mindfulness and compassion.

Together, Alan and Bob explore the profound insights gained from practices such as Daoism and Buddhism, discussing how these ancient traditions align seamlessly with Christian principles. Bob shares his spiritual journey, which included personal upheavals and a rediscovery of faith, culminating in his book, "I am the way," a blend of Daoist and Christian teachings. Listeners will be captivated by Bob's dedication to helping others through mindfulness, including his innovative meditation courses designed for at-risk youth and corporate CEOs. We also dive into the significance of observing thoughts and emotions, tapping into Carl Jung’s studies on the I Ching, and the wisdom imparted by meditation mentors like Master Ni. So, tune in for an episode filled with profound wisdom, practical mindfulness techniques, and heartwarming stories that showcase the transformative power of inner work. But rather than just sharing an intriguing story, Bob provided actionable insights that can transform our approach to mindfulness and spiritual wellbeing. Here are my top three takeaways: 🔹 Integration of Intuition and Logic: The I Ching, extensively studied by Carl Jung, engages both the intuitive and logical sides of the brain. It helps users connect with their intuition by keeping the logical brain occupied with calculations, paving the way for deeper self-awareness. 🔹 The Power of Observing Thoughts: By practicing stillness and observing our thoughts, we can experience "waking up" moments as described in Buddhist teachings. This conscious observation helps us separate our identity from our thoughts, leading to a more balanced and peaceful mind. 🔹 Blending Spiritual Traditions: Bob's unique journey inspired him to create "I am the way," a book that merges Daoist and Christian teachings, demonstrating the profound similarities between these philosophies. His work not only reconnects readers to the divine but also fosters an inclusive approach to spirituality. Resources Mentioned: I AM THE WAY: This book explores interfaith spiritual harmony creating a bridge between Eastern and Christian wisdom, expressing the chapters of the Tao Te Ching in Biblical language, forming a devotional.
