Do you believe there is more to life than meets the eye? Are you fascinated by the mystery of life and are interested in finding answers to the biggest questions? Why are we here, is there something beyond this physical reality, what's the secret to living a magical life? How do we tap into our intuition, our higher self and the wonderous realm that surrounds us? Are you searching for tools on how to be in your light, be in your full potential, see the signs that are meant for you? Then you are in the right place, at the right time.
My name is Orly, I'm a psychic medium, and when my father passed away, he left me the most precious gift, the ability to understand, see, hear, and sense all that exists alongside our physical reality.
On the week of mourning, "Shiva," I started receiving messages from beyond through images and sound, and while I was in self-doubt, I knew in my heart this was real. In that moment, I felt like everything I always believed in and understood made sense & that I had finally come home to my soul's calling, connecting with loved ones in spirit.
We all have this ability to communicate & receive divine guidance, to see the wonders of this world, to live in joy & abundance. We just have to re-learn and remember how to tap into the magical mystical realm that surrounds us.
I know we are living in a dimension where not everything is seen. We are all here to expand & to grow and I'm excited to go on this journey of discovery with you.
Each week I'll have open hearted conversations with spiritual teachers and inspirational souls about
the magic of the world and practical insight and guidance on how to make it show up in ours every day.
Whether you want to learn how to tap into your full potential, live a meaningful life or get spiritual inspiration and guidance, this podcast is for you!
I hope this podcast inspires you on your personal journey towards living a meaningful life full of magic and inner peace.
I'm not a psychologist or a medical doctor and do not offer professional health or medical advice. I offer my own inner wisdom and those of others.
If you are suffering from a psychological or medical condition, please seek help from a qualified health professional.
Let's tap into some Magic!

"We wouldn't have been given that seed of a dream or a gift if we weren't meant to see it through and we weren't meant to share it." - Alana Gentry

"I feel like music carries a vibration. Everything does, but when you're actually singing and you're having a tone go through your body, whether you consider yourself a good singer or not, I think that tone, that vibrational tone of sound current moving through our body changes the energy and uplifts us." - Alana Gentry

Key Quotes:

"I'm always asking myself:  what am I excited about right now? What am I curious about right now? What feels like fun? What feels fun and easy? Like, these are the questions I ask myself when I'm feeling into the next thing, because it always has to be sourced from what's alive in me." - Andrea Scher

"I firmly believe that we have so much more access to the other side than maybe we want to believe or have been taught to believe.” - Andrea Scher

When we notice that we're not feeling well, we can shift it into the better feeling state - Orly Altaras
