| 14 Jul 2022 | The Worldview is that this is Impossible! with Dr. Helané Wahbeh | 00:55:04 | |
Today we are joined by Dr. Helané Wahbeh, ND, MCR, Director of Research at the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS). We discuss exactly what channeling is, where channeled information comes from, moving from a materialist to a post-materialist paradigm, and using the power of intention to heal and affect other people’s bodies and energy fields. Helané shares seminal experiences in youth which inspired her personal and professional journey and discusses some of the challenges one faces when doing professional research on psychic phenomena and consciousness in a broader scientific community that can sometimes be biased and dismissive. Helané is clinically trained as a naturopathic physician, and research-trained with a master’s of clinical research and two postdoctoral research fellowships. Her research domains include extended human capacities, complementary and alternative medicine, mind-body medicine, stress, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Dr. Wahbeh is especially known for her research around - and noetic approach to - channeling. She has most recently authored the book, The Science of Channeling: Why You Should Trust Your Intuition and the Force That Connects Us All, published by Reveal Press (2021). Liked what you heard?

| 26 Aug 2022 | Our Body is an Electroacoustic Instrument! with Eileen McKusick | 00:55:38 | |
Today we are joined by Eileen Day McKusick, a pioneering researcher, practitioner and educator in the fields of therapeutic sound, the human biofield and electric health. As founder of the sound therapy method Biofield Tuning, we discuss the “biofield” - the body’s electrical system, what happens to this biofield in instances of disease and disorder, and how sound healing uses physics-based principles of resonance and entrainment to help the body shift into a more coherent expression. Eileen describes what happens when our bodies go "out of tune" due to avoidance, injuries, unskillful thoughts or trauma and how these distortions in the biofield become part of the lens through which we experience life. Eileen shares how the Biofield Tuning Map she has devised suggests that memories are stored as standing-waves in the field, how every emotion has a tonal equivalent like a kind of "sonic braille" and how the field organizes the chronology of memory. Eileen also explains bold concepts such as the relationship between voltage, pH and health and how "the body is in the mind". Eileen is author of the award winning, bestselling book Tuning the Human Biofield: Healing with Vibrational Sound Therapy, 2014, as well as Electric Body, Electric Health published by St. Martin’s Press in 2021.

| 29 Jul 2022 | There's no real Buddhism in there anymore... with Richard Shankman | 00:59:42 | |
Today we are joined by Richard Shankman, an accomplished meditation teacher, cofounder of the Sati Center for Buddhist Studies and author of The Experience of Samadhi; An In-depth Exploration of Buddhist Meditation (Shambhala, 2008). Richard discusses the importance for each individual to find their path to freedom, and how systems or philosophies remain mere techniques to assist us with our direct experience and knowledge of liberation. An expert in meditation, Richard shares his profound understanding of the samadhi or jhana states - advanced stages of practice often misunderstood, shedding light on ways to understand the role of samadhi in enlightenment. We also discuss more recent developments in Richard’s practice, working with a healing group comprised of advanced meditators, and the parallels between notions of healing and purification. He shares with us an idea that form or manifestation may have a kind of essence, which we are familiar with as love. In closing, Richard shares the beauty and simplicity of his current practice, "open the heart and let go". Liked what you heard? Help us reach more people!

| 12 Aug 2022 | Our Inherent Divinity with Bruce Burger | 00:58:04 | |
Today we commune with guest Bruce Burger, author of the exceptional Esoteric Anatomy: The Body as Consciousness, published by North Atlantic Books in 1998, teacher and practitioner of Polarity Therapy, and founder of the Heartwood Institute in 1978. At Heartwood, Bruce has said he participated in “a revolution in the understanding and practice of holistic healing, and the emergence of Energy Medicine”. Bruce discusses his great passion for the ancient wisdom traditions and how they have informed his understanding of the nature of consciousness. We hear of his travels to India as a young seeker after finding disenchantment with the western, materialistic worldview, and tales of renowned teachers and adepts such as Osho, S.N. Goenka, Papaji, Satya Sai Baba and Vanamali Mataji. Bruce shares the philosophy of Samkhya, where the cause of suffering is ignorance of our own inherent divinity, and how knowledge or realization of the self is the balm for this suffering. He emphasizes the essential role of therapeutic presence in healing work, and how trauma can be resolved when sacred space is held for us to be safe and present in our body. He explains how everything that exists is a self-organising and self-correcting field of polarities, and reminds us of the ecstasy of embodiment, the inherent joy that comes with this human experience if we can only tap into it.

| 16 Sep 2022 | Hindered by Fear and Helped by Love with Jim Gilkeson | 00:48:34 | |
Our guest today is Jim Gilkeson, teacher, craniosacral therapist and author of both A Pilgrim in Your Body: Energy Healing and Spiritual Process (2009) and Energy Healing: A Pathway to Inner Growth (1999). Jim shares with us the first time he laid hands on someone with healing intent, and the life circumstances that led him to subtle energy work. We discuss how energy work moves us towards more than just symptom management, and engages our psycho-spiritual process. We hear how Jim teaches people to shift from a physical paradigm to an energetic one and his strategy for locating energy blocks through awareness, tracking and allowing. As a practitioner, he highlights the importance of deep listening, and his great passion for one-one-one mentoring and supporting those in transition to energy healing from bodywork backgrounds. Sharing details of his own self-practice, we also learn how healing at its best, and most elegant, takes place with the tiniest of nudges. Liked what you heard? Help us reach more people!

| 07 Oct 2022 | Connecting to Who You Are with Michael Oruch | 00:51:40 | |
Joining us today is President Emeritus of the Zero Balancing Board of Directors, Michael Oruch, an established Zero Balancing teacher and practitioner based in New York City. Michael views Zero Balancing as a vehicle for health, wellness and positive change both personally and collectively, and was inspired to teach Zero Balancing (or ZB) following years of study and tutelage with the modality Founder, Dr. Fritz Smith. We discuss how Zero Balancing uses fulcrums to clear vibration held in the bone, joints and the energy field of clients, how working with bone connects to our ancestors and why releasing held tension in the body catalyzes self-reorganisation. We address the key ZB concept of "interface" - how the practitioner navigates the boundary between structure and energy through touch. Michael shares his insights regarding how healing is about accessing that which is hidden, as we free ourselves from suffering and resolve trauma in the body and the mind. Key aspects of Zero Balancing are discussed including expanded states of consciousness and what it means to “hurt good’. Interestingly, we explore how a touch-based modality can be used for remote healing through the use of surrogates. Michael has taught Zero Balancing extensively in both the US and internationally, and has additionally spent many years studying Qigong, Tai Chi and related forms, which he has taught at New York University. He has made significant contributions to the ZB community as a Mentor Faculty Advisor, through teacher trainings, and serving on various committees. He has also personally developed three Zero Balancing classes and two Zero Balancing training DVD's. Michael believes Zero Balancing can help a practitioner to be more present and clear in the world, with themselves, and each person they contact. Liked what you heard? Help us reach more people!

| 28 Oct 2022 | You Open Your Heart and You Honor Your Parents with Susan Ulfelder | 00:46:03 | |
Today we are joined by Susan Ulfelder, Director of the Hellinger Institute of DC and both graduate and former Dean at the Barbara Brennan School of Healing. We discuss Susan's current work in Family Constellations, a powerful approach to individual and family healing developed by German psychotherapist Bert Hellinger, her experience as a hands-on healer through modalities such as Polarity Therapy and Brennan Healing Science and her personal development of high sense perception (ESP). We consider the powerful process of "representation" in family constellations, and what it is to expand our focus from the perception of the individual field through to the systemic or family field. We discuss some of the more fascinating energetic dynamics of the family field such as how energetic cords or entanglements between people function, and how issues and themes travel across generations. We also cover the power of healing words and phrases in Constellation work, and Susan shares her experience with founder Bert Hellinger, who emphasised the honouring of our parents for giving us life, which restores the flow of love through generations past.

| 18 Nov 2022 | Electrical Engineering for the Body with Dr. Dan Keown | 00:55:31 | |
Today we are joined by Dr. Daniel Keown, author of the ground-breaking book "The Spark in the Machine: How the Science of Acupuncture Explains the Mysteries of Western Medicine" (2014) and more recently “The Uncharted Body” (2019). Dan has been a practicing doctor for over twenty years, and an acupuncturist for more than a decade. In 2010 he studied alongside the renowned Dr. Wang Ju-Yi at the Institute of Channel Diagnosis in Beijing. We discuss the importance of electricity in the health and function of the body, and how the meridian channels correspond to fascial pathways that surgeons routinely use. Dan suggests that dis-ease is fundamentally about dysfunctional qi flow, likening acupuncture to electrical engineering for the body. He explains how channel palpation works in relation to diagnostics and how fascia is the primary tissue allowing electrical movement throughout the body. We discuss how shen - or spirit - is an integral component to the health and happiness of an individual, and perhaps the most important indicator of health. We explore the fascinating connection between embryology and acupuncture, morphogenetic fields, the mystery of how a single cell becomes an entire body and how the six divisions in acupuncture theory serve as embryological planes. Furthermore, we discuss the extraordinary channels and how he views chakras as nerve ganglions, or mini-brains. Dan shares his frustration with the western medical model's reductionism, where he feels it does and doesn't work, and highlights how it excels with emergency medicine. He also shares a controversial viewpoint in which he feels that western medicine is a broken system. Dan envisions a future in which acupuncture is the first line of therapy in healthcare and hospitals worldwide - providing an inexpensive, intelligent, and effective way of supporting people's health and well-being. Dan received a degree in medicine from Manchester University in 1998, and 2008 he completed a degree in Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture from the College of Integrated Medicine affiliated with Kingston University, and has been a member of the British Acupuncture Council since. He practices in Tunbridge Wells, UK and runs an online teaching institute The School of Scientific Oriental Medicine and Acupuncture which he founded in 2015. Liked what you heard?

| 05 Jan 2023 | The Layers & Levels of the Cosmos! with Steven Forrest | 00:58:06 | |
Our special guest for today’s New Year episode is world-renowned astrologer Steven Forrest. Steven is the author of a dozen astrological bestsellers including the classic, The Inner Sky. Over the course of his stellar career Steven has travelled world-wide teaching his brand of choice-centered Evolutionary Astrology, which integrates free will, grounded humanistic psychology and ancient metaphysics. We discuss how a person’s astrological imprint might be mapped onto their aura or energy field, how astrology is a method of understanding the hermetic adage "as above, so below" and how astrology can provide a useful roadmap to a soul's journey. Steven describes the approach of Evolutionary Astrology and how it incorporates the conditioning of past-lives to understand our karmic patterns in the current one. We discuss ways of considering how astrology works and why the moment of birth is so integral to our astrological mapping. Steven shares some of his personal journey, and how he views astrology as a path to self-knowledge. We discuss the role of the planet pluto, known as the lord of the underworld - the shamanic planet, the journey of the soul or mindstream (citta-santāna), the relationship of astrology to co-creating the evolution of consciousness and how collective or mundane astrology is performed. In this inspiring and informative conversation Steven shares how knowledge of his own astrological chart has informed and contextualized his life journey and the potential that astrology holds in empowering individuals to understand themselves and navigate life in a deeper, more meaningful way.

| 19 Jan 2023 | The Internal Causes of Disease with Peter Mole | 00:55:02 | |
Peter Mole is one of the UK's leading practitioners of acupuncture, the Dean at the College of Integrated Chinese Medicine, Reading and a founding member of the Executive Committee of the British Acupuncture Council. Peter’s particular interest lies in how Chinese medicine understands how people’s internal worlds - especially their emotions - affect their physical and psychological health. He states that “Western medicine is a great system yet it lacks an understanding of how stress and distress affect people’s health. However, this is one of Chinese medicine’s greatest strengths". We discuss the role of constitution in TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine), the difference between prana & qi, diagnostic methods in acupuncture and how Peter connects to and tracks the flow of qi through the needle. We cover the vital role of the emotions in health, and his experience of physical versus psycho-emotional orientations to treatment. Peter shares his thoughts on the value of finding meaningful work and loving relationships and the importance of building resilience in mind, body and emotions. He contextualizes the term Spirit in Chinese, shares a little of his personal travels in India and the importance of living in harmony with nature and the Tao. Peter is the author of "Acupuncture for Body, Mind and Spirit", directed at patients and prospective students, and co-author of the major textbook "Five Element Constitutional Acupuncture". He has lectured extensively in Europe, Israel, and the USA. Peter received an M.A. in Modern History from Oxford University. He has been practising acupuncture since 1978. Liked what you heard?

| 10 Feb 2023 | Exploring Magical Consciousness with Dr. Susan Greenwood | 00:49:43 | |
Dr. Susan Greenwood is a renowned author, lecturer and shamanic practitioner in the fields of magic, anthropology and consciousness. She specializes in magic as an altered mode of awareness, well-known for her fieldwork with British witches, druids, and shamanic practitioners. A past lecturer and Visiting Fellow at Goldsmiths, University of London, she completed her PhD on British magic in 1997. We discuss how she defines magical consciousness, the importance of the experiential in relation to the theoretical, and academia’s response to subjectivity. Susan talks with us about working with altered states of consciousness, shamanic extraction versus journeying, the imagination as a doorway to other realities and the art of walking the dimensions. We talk about shamanism as humanity's first type of spiritual experience and the importance of the concept of a 'whole soul' to our health, healing and well-being. She discusses the danger of Western arrogance and the limitations of what is currently seen as knowledge. She places emphasis on the wisdom of indigenous cultures and how critical it is for us to integrate this knowledge in order to re-envision our world. Susan is perhaps best known for her writing on consciousness and magic, The Anthropology of Magic (Berg, 2009; Routledge, 2020) and her collaborative work with neuroscientist Erik Goodwyn, Magical Consciousness: An Anthropological and Neurobiological Approach (Routledge, 2017), and Developing Magical Consciousness: A Theoretical and Practical Guide for the Expansion of Perception (Routledge, 2020). She was previously a lecturer and Senior Research Fellow at the University of Sussex, where she taught courses and workshops on shamanic consciousness and altered states of consciousness for many years. Susan’s research focus is now on exploring alternative modes of knowledge through storytelling, and in particular the work of William Blake. Liked what you heard? Help us reach more people!

| 10 Mar 2023 | Pre & Perinatal Trauma Healing with Kate White | 00:51:54 | |
Kate White is a somatic trauma resolution therapist, Biodynamic craniosacral and advanced bodyworker specializing in prenatal and perinatal therapies. She specializes in healing early trauma by helping people work through and resolve the adaptive strategies initiated in their earliest years of life. Throughout her career Kate has helped to "educate professionals and the public, worldwide, that a baby’s experience of conception, pregnancy, and birth creates lifelong consequences for individuals, families, and society." In this episode Kate gives us an overview of pre and perinatal care, her skillset in presence and reading the space between people, and the influence of pioneers in the field Ray Castellino and William Emerson. We discuss the body as memory, and the layers and imprints of pre-conception, pre-natal and birthing trauma. She shares the commonality of the "double bind" and a "stuck place" in life as a result of inherited or birth trauma. We consider the regularity of ancestral imprints and their effect on the family system. Kate addresses the importance of our self-healing, and how treating a baby is in fact treating the whole family. She also shares her insights with regards to best birthing practices such as midwifery, the role of a birth doula, and extended support of the broader family. Since 1999, Kate has studied alongside many of the pioneers in prenatal and perinatal trauma healing, with extensive education in anatomy, physiology, neuroscience, embryology, interpersonal neurobiology, craniosacral biodynamics and somatic experiencing. She is Founder and former Director of the Department of Education for Prenatal and Perinatal Psychology and Health, and offers online training in both Prenatal and Perinatal Dynamics. Her work combines somatic therapy with brain development to help give families with babies and small children the best possible start. Liked what you heard? Help us reach more people!

| 30 Mar 2023 | Deep Loyalty to the Family System with Marina Toledo | 00:56:03 | |
Marina Toledo is Founder of the Hellinger Institute, Canada and a leading facilitator and trainer in Family Constellations, offering workshops and trainings internationally both in-person and online. She founded the Hellinger Institute in 2011, based on a vision to open hearts and facilitate reconciliation and transgenerational healing worldwide. We discuss the philosophy of Family Constellations and how unprocessed ancestral trauma continues on in the subsequent generations. Marina shares insights into the relevance of exclusion in the family system, the concept of the “orders of love”, and how this healing method uses the phenomenological approach. We talk about the various levels of conscience - individual, family & spiritual, working with what Hellinger called the knowing field of individuals and groups, and the connection to Rupert Sheldrake and morphogenic fields. Marina shares her first experience with Constellations, and how we can in fact constellate any issue relevant to us, which may have no apparent connection to the family. She also covers the importance of working with interrupted movements towards our mother, why we sometimes need to say "no" as a practitioner, and challenging circumstances that may arise during a constellation. She also describes the skills needed to do this complex and deeply moving work well. Liked what you heard? Help us reach more people!

| 14 Apr 2023 | Conscious Dreaming - Learn to Talk and Walk Your Dreams with Robert Moss | 00:56:38 | |
Robert Moss is a dream teacher and the creator of Active Dreaming, an original synthesis of dreamwork and shamanic methods of journeying and healing. A former lecturer in ancient history at the Australian National University, he is a best-selling novelist, journalist, and independent scholar. A central premise of Robert’s approach is that dreaming isn’t just what happens during sleep; dreaming is waking up to sources of guidance, healing and creativity beyond the reach of the everyday mind. We discuss dreaming as a form of travelling, how there are different types of dreams, and his initiation into other realities. We consider dream etiquette, the transformational power of symbolism and imagery, and the potential diagnostic function of dreams. Robert shares the idea of dreams as a form of soul communication, and how we can learn to “talk and walk our dreams”. We consider what aspect of ourselves might survive physical death, the subtle or astral body as the vehicle of dreaming, and the importance of psychic protection. He shares the great importance of dreaming in many cultures, and how in indigenous North America the dominant word for shaman (and also for healer or spiritual elder) means dreamer. Robert has published twelve books on dreaming, shamanism and imagination, including Conscious Dreaming: A Spiritual Path for Everyday Life (Harmony, 1996) - his first and foundational book introducing his marriage of shamanism and dreamwork. Born in Australia, Robert survived three near-death experiences in childhood. He has led seminars at the Esalen Institute, Kripalu, the Omega Institute, the New York Open Center and many others, and offers a three-year training for teachers of Active Dreaming. He has appeared on many TV and radio shows, including the Today Show and Coast to Coast. His books have been published in more than twenty foreign languages. Liked what you heard?

| 27 Apr 2023 | Awakening to the Truth of Who You Are with Laurie Keene | 01:01:14 | |
Laurie Keene is an author, international teacher and speaker of spirituality, personal transformation and the evolution of human consciousness. She has spent three decades as a leader in the mindfulness movement. We discuss Laurie's personal journey of healing, the importance of discovering one’s passion in life and the meaning and process of awakening. We consider what multidimensionality means, how the aura is structured and how this factors into developing high sense perception (HSP) or extrasensory perception (ESP). Laurie explains how all energetic blockage shows up in the body, that trauma and suffering are doorways to freedom, and what obstacles stand between us and finding our divine purpose. She shares her story of awakening, the role of grace in enlightenment and what she calls "learning to follow the soul". She describes how we can all remember that we are all that is. Laurie is a Brennan Healing Science Practitioner and teacher, a Living Practice Mentor, Core Energetic therapist and Continuum teacher. Working side-by-side with Barbara Brennan for over 25 years, she was Dean of the Barbara Brennan School of Healing from 1993-2016.

| 04 May 2023 | Resonance & Craniosacral Therapy with Scott Zamurut | 01:06:13 | |
Scott Zamurut is a practitioner and teacher of somatic and energetic healing arts with over thirty-three years of experience in the field. His training background includes massage therapy, Polarity Therapy, private mentoring in structural integration, group leadership and dynamics, and ontological coaching, all of which support his current work in Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy, and Pre and Perinatal education and healing. Scott shares his journey into the healing arts and what distinguishes the biodynamic approach amongst other approaches to craniosacral work. We discuss how energy is the “agency of healing”, the experience of sensing the body and the energy field in an integrated way and even integrating chakras within the craniosacral paradigm. We cover the importance of being present with the body, the earth and the energetic midline. We also investigate a core concept called primary respiration: how the body not only breathes physically but also energetically. Scott talks about developing palpation and perceptual skills, trauma healing, how to integrate classical psychic perception in touch therapy and the importance of maintaining healthy boundaries as a practitioner. He shares how working energetically gets us beyond the narrative and how the body resets and self-heals after energetic resolution. Scott entered his teaching path in 1990 with Polarity Therapy. As a student and teacher trainee in the first BCST training with Franklyn Sills, he is among the longest tenured Biodynamics teachers in North America. Scott was also fortunate to work extensively in the Pre and Perinatal field with Karlton Terry, who mentored directly with William Emerson, Ph.D. These two streams of healing work are alive as the core focus of Scott’s healing and teaching practice. He served as a founding board member of the Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy Association of North America, and is a past Vice President of the American Polarity Therapy Association. He is based in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Liked what you heard? Help us reach more people!

| 25 May 2023 | The Colon Tells a Story: Colon Hydrotherapy with Bill Haggard | 00:51:33 | |
Bill Haggard is a highly experienced colon hydrotherapy practitioner with a knowledge and wisdom for the therapy born of great passion and experience. Twenty-two years ago, Bill found himself suffering from a life-time exposure to toxic environments including Agent Orange used in Vietnam and chemicals from his family’s farming amongst others. Diagnosed with several inconclusive conditions, including liver ailments and chronic fatigue, Bill began researching alternative therapies and discovered colonics. Bill shares how the colon and our colon health tells a story, the various systems for colonic irrigation and his personal journey of recovery. We discuss how stress, refined food, dehydration, chemical exposure, and unprocessed trauma and emotions can impede your colon’s ability to eliminate efficiently. We discuss why gut health and maintenance is often under the radar in health and wellness, the benefits of colonics and enemas, and how colonic irrigation is an ancient practice. We consider the controversies and contraindications regarding colonics. Bill shares what he feels are the best complimentary practices, the value of using filtered water for hydrotherapy, the role of constipation and diarrhea, the popularity of coffee enemas, and the use of additives to enhance detoxification. We discuss the connection of the gut, nervous and immune system and the importance of getting back to the basics of health. Bill shares how a healthy colon can lead to greater vitality and clear thinking, what a healthy digestive system looks like, how a person can start on the journey of greater colon health, and what to look for in a colonic practitioner. Bill now lives a life free of the 'ailments' previously diagnosed, and has been offering colonics as a practitioner for more than twenty years to a thriving clientele. Liked what you heard?

| 08 Jun 2023 | Conversations with a Death Doula - Walking with our Mortality with Wilka Roig | 00:52:23 | |
Wilka Roig brings a broad perspective to her work in end-of-life wellness as a transpersonal psychologist, death doula, grief counsellor, dream worker, ordained minister, educator and facilitator. She holds a MA in Transpersonal Psychology and has trained with Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estés in Archetypal and Cross-Cultural Psychology, and with Dr. Gabor Maté in Compassionate Inquiry. We discuss the emerging role of the death doula and the overarching attitude towards death in Western culture. We consider how people come to work with a death doula, what may happen during the death transition and how preparing well for death actually enriches life. We also discuss how a person's beliefs might inform their relationship to death and the knowing that guides the facilitation of transition. Wilka invites us to broaden our relationship to transitions, and emphasises living fully and dying gracefully. She explains how death is happening at many levels, much of the time, and how grief can be dealt with wisely. We also discuss death denial, how dreams inform life, altered states, and the possibilities for integrating Curanderismo, Tibetan Buddhism and other approaches to the death process. Ultimately, Wilka provides us with an expansive and integrative view of what a death doula is and can be. Liked what you heard? Help us reach more people!

| 22 Jun 2023 | I'm Not Coming Back: Experiencing Enlightenment with Ananda Abinou | 00:52:29 | |
Ananda Abinou achieved his enlightenment in 1973. Since that time he has travelled extensively, giving freely to whomever sought his knowledge. In 2001 he released his teachings to the public in the book I'm Not Coming Back; Talks With Ananda Abinou (Epinoc Publishing). Ananda muses on all things consciousness related, from esoteric teachings to the nature of reality. He has been called a Black Buddha and the Sage of the West. In this meditative episode Ananda shares his awakening process, the act of letting go at a radical level, and how he didn’t come to awakening through any spiritual system. We discuss what enlightenment is in relation to what he calls "the moment", how psychological tension effects the body and the physical adjustments he experienced after his spiritual awakening. Ananda shares how reality is a “vibrational frequency”, and the importance of the power of choice, focus and responsibility. He highlights how we limit ourselves through our investment in beliefs and how an individual contributes to the collective. He discusses moving beyond duality and coming to wholeness, the singularity of consciousness and our responsibility to truthfulness. Finally, Ananda exemplifies the importance of laughter, joy and why it's important not to take things so seriously! Liked what you heard? Help us reach more people!

| 06 Jul 2023 | Exploring Kambo; Shamanic Frog Medicine with Andrew Mulquin | 00:52:13 | |
Andrew Mulquin is a Master Kambo practitioner and teacher, and was the first practitioner world-wide trained to Master Kambo Practitioner level by the International Association of Kambo Practitioners (IAKP). Andrew holds group Kambo ceremonies, private treatments and trainings in both the UK and abroad. We discuss the history of Kambo, its indigenous origins, and how Kambo has been used for community building, negative energy (panema) and detoxification. We discuss how unlike many other Shamanic medicines, Kambo is neither psychoactive or psychedelic. We cover the chemistry of Kambo, especially the unique peptides contained within it. Andrew shares his introduction to the medicine and subsequent journey as a practitioner and teacher. He shares client healing stories highlighting Kambo's assistance with fertility issues, depression, pain relief and gaining greater clarity in life. We discuss how a Kambo ceremony is facilitated and what to expect. Crucially, we chat about how Kambo is best harvested, and the importance of sustainable and ethical practices regarding the beautiful Amazonian monkey frog. We cover some of the controversies about Kambo, and contraindications such as heart-related issues, strokes, certain mental health conditions, electrolyte balance and much more. Andrew shares his knowledge of the current scientific studies into Kambo pharmacology and how aspects of Kambo are currently being isolated for multiple patents in the USA. As a Kambo practitioner, Andrew sees his role as a guide to help his clients through an intense, personal journey with the medicine. During a circle or treatment he is careful to allow space for each person’s process, and to make the experience as easy and as comfortable as it can be. Andrew sees Kambo not as a cure in itself, but rather as a means of allowing a person’s mind and body to function as they should. He feels blessed to have witnessed Kambo affect positive changes in the lives of the many people he has treated. He acknowledges that Kambo is not a medicine for everyone, but for those who it is, it can be a powerful catalyst for healing and transformation. Liked what you heard? Help us reach more people!

| 17 Aug 2023 | How to Have Conscious Sex; Exploring Tantra and Intimacy with Diana Richardson | 00:55:45 | |
Diana Richardson, author of The Heart of Tantric Sex; A Unique Guide to Love and Sexual Fulfilment (2003), is known as the pioneer of the Slow Sex movement. In 1979, she became a disciple of the Indian mystic Osho and her interest in meditation, touch and healing initiated an exploration into Tantra, an ancient body of knowledge originating in India. In this eye-opening episode we discuss Diana's personal journey and how she navigated tantric sex traditions, including the influences of teachers Osho and Barry Long. Diana shares the fundamentals of conscious sex, emphasizing the importance of awareness, non-doing and presence. She discusses how tantric sex creates an expansion of energy and consciousness, in contrast to traditional sex which is goal-oriented and orgasm-led. We consider the burdens of sexual conditioning carried by both men and women, such as performance anxiety and the desire to please. Demystifying the strategies of tantric sex and revealing the importance of receptivity, Diana shares how tantra is a practice of moving inward which naturally brings about healing and self-realization. She discusses how an erection is not a necessary part of conscious sex, and how tantric practice isn’t limited to heterosexual couples, but is available to all sexual orientations and partners. We cover the theory of the positive and negative poles of the body which circulate the magnetic energies, and how tantric sex is grounded “in the basement” of the body, the genitals and pelvis - thus creating change in the rest of the system above. Diana joyfully shares how becoming conscious of and broadening our relationship with sex can lead to all types of greater enjoyment and fulfilment in life. Other titles authored by Diana include Tantric Orgasm for Women, Slow Sex, and the co-authored Tantric Sex for Men with her partner Michael Richardson. Together, they are based in Switzerland, where they guide couples in the art of conscious sex in their highly successful Making Love retreats. Diana has been a speaker on TEDx, sharing her insights about how sex can be much more than our mainstream culture relates to it. Ultimately, Diana shows us how sex can be a genuine method for self-exploration and spiritual development. Liked what you heard? Help us reach more people!

In this episode Matthew shares with us early insights regarding the natural world and his realization that "nature is alive". An expert herbalist, he walks us through how he works with clients from intake through diagnostic approach and herbal remedy. Matthew shares how as his practice has matured over the decades he has learned to simply “follow the energy”. We discuss the homeopathic principle of treating like with like and what the extracellular matrix is and its role in whole organism communication. He describes the role of constitution in holistic health and gives examples from Ayurveda’s dosha system, Native American animal likenesses, and the modern “body types” idea of endomorph, ectomorph and mesomorph. We examine the healing mechanism of adaptogenic mushrooms like Reishi and Chaga and how they fit into a herbalist framework. He also recommends certain sustainable tonic herbs that can have long term benefits and explains the concept of “the green power” of Viriditas, espoused by the middle-age mystic Saint Hildegard. Matthew discusses the growing challenges in people’s wellness in a complex era of experimentation, sharing his vision of our relationship with the planet and Mother Nature in which our hearts are aligned with the love of the Earth. Matthew has helped tens of thousands of clients over the years, many with difficult health problems, and has maintained a practice of traditional Western herbalism during a period when many others have turned to the exotic traditions of India or China.

He is a registered member of the American Herbalists Guild and teaches online through the Matthew Wood Institute of Herbalism. Liked what you heard? Help us reach more people!

Tara Judelle has taught yoga around the world for over 20 years. With asana as a gateway, Tara steeped herself in the non-dual philosophy of Kashmir Shaivism or Tantra. In 2014 she co-created the school of Embodied Flow with Dr. Scott Lyons; an integrative blend of hatha yoga, somatics, meditation, and transpersonal psychology that elicits the experience of meditation in action. In this reflective episode we discuss how asana can be used skilfully to support our awakening process. Tara shares the philosophy of tantra and how it informs her practice as well as the influence of her own teachers Sally Kempton and Bonnie Bainbridge-Cohen. She explains the concept of 'embodied anatomy' and what it really means to have freedom. Tara shares how in order to fully inhabit the body, healing must first take place, and how tapping into healing energy happens naturally when coming into a place of stillness within or by touching the "ground of being". We discuss the importance of getting in touch with the memory and resonance of early embryological aspects of our bodies, and how macrocosmic, universal energy flows are reflected in the movements of our physical body. Tara's classes focus on the discovery of embodied anatomy, bringing to the yogic tradition a scientific yet playful study of the movement vocabulary of the body and the ever-expanding perceptual awareness of the human mind. Following an initial move from Los Angeles to direct a yoga program and retreat center in Bali for several years, Tara now teaches workshops, retreats and teacher trainings worldwide; her dynamic style bringing ease and authenticity into a new yoga culture.

What is the connection between molecular biology, gene regulation and consciousness? In today's episode with Garret Yount, PhD we discuss his great passion for using the scientific method to explore consciousness and extended human capacities. We invite you to step into the intriguing realms of how a scientist approaches energy healing, the human biofield and psychokinesis. We consider a lucid dreaming study that altered gene expression, dream work that helped individuals with PTSD, and a new experiment on telepathy focusing on the gut brain. Author of "Why Vibes Matter and How to Use Our Energy Wisely", Garret also explores the concept of the science of vibrations through three types of vibes - conscious, subconscious and superconscious, and how they shape our daily lives. We delve into the phenomenon of neural coupling, emotional residue and conditioned spaces - including a compelling experiment with random number generators reacting to a conditioned space. Ultimately, we consider the limitations of the current scientific paradigm of materialism and ask what the implications would be for us to have an inaccurate model of reality.

| 04 Jan 2024 | The Keys to Emotional Healing for Healthy Relationships with Diana Richardson | 00:59:08 | |
Today’s episode with Diana Richardson is dedicated to a theme that often dominates and steers our lives in many ways, particularly during the holiday season - emotions! Ever wondered how emotions shape our relationships, how they can hinder or nurture our connections, and how we can harness them for a fulfilling love life? Emotions can obstruct our outlook on love and impede the very thing that we most long for - intimate connection with others. We consider the difference between emotions and feelings, what to do when you find yourself in a toxic emotional state, and how we can learn to free ourselves from these unconscious forces. Diana describes how we can identify 'low-grade' emotions or moods in which imbalance starts to express - in states such as negativity, irritability and impatience. She provides powerful insights about how allowing feelings in relationships enables openness and greater intimacy, strategies for resolving emotional struggles and why taking responsibility is central to enabling conflict resolution. This conversation heightens our understanding of how to transform emotional dynamics, urging us towards greater self-awareness. We draw attention to how addressing our emotions can contribute to a more harmonious world and how freeing up the past to serve the present and make space for love in relationships makes all the difference. We conclude this deep exploration by looking at the connection between emotions and their expression during sexual intimacy. Diana helps us understand the principle of love as a state of being and the importance of healing emotions as a means of returning to the love we have within ourselves and with others. This talk offers invaluable advice for us all to maintain robust, gratifying relationships, guiding us towards a more harmonious and loving life.

Presenting the history of flower essences and their progenitor, Dr. Edward Bach, Patricia explains how to understand and articulate the characteristics of a flower in relation to their healing characteristics. She shares how a materialist worldview limits our ability to understand how nature is working at subtler levels, and how making a remedy is about the critical synergy of the four elements in tandem with the flower’s unique essence. Patricia discusses her favourite combination remedies for foundational healing, and describes how flower essences create a resonant effect at the energetic and soul level of a person to catalyze healing. Sharing insightful case studies, she brings us practical advice on integrating flower remedies into our daily lives and the transformative power of using words and affirmations alongside them.

| 15 Feb 2024 | The Implications of Global Consciousness: Measuring the Collective Mind with Dr. Roger Nelson | 00:59:38 | |
Do the emotions and intentions we collectively experience shape our physical reality? Dr. Roger Nelson, the scientist behind the Global Consciousness Project, joins us to share his insights into the unseen connections that bind us. Our discussion illuminates how the GCP's network of random number generators (RNG) across the globe is able to measure the collective mind of humanity. A revolutionary initiative, the experiments have shown intriguing results, where significant global events - moments of profound tragedy or celebration - seem to correspond with statistical deviations in the data produced by RNGs. These findings suggest that the collective human consciousness might be more intertwined with the physical world than previously thought; emotions and consciousness are not just byproducts but potent forces that could be shaping the very fabric of reality. We discuss why high levels of emotion, either consonant or dissonant, affect the coherency of the field of consciousness. He shares with us the idea that mind is non-local and explains how the substrate of mind can be whittled down to information and patterns. Dr. Nelson guides us through the scientific principles and the inspiring implications of these findings, opening our eyes to the profound potential locked within our collective intentions. We consider what it would mean to integrate this paradigm in which we are far more connected and what challenges we would face to become truly responsible at individual and collective levels. As we close this episode, the call to action seems clear; a need to nurture our awareness and actively contribute to the conscious evolution of our global community. Join us in this thought-provoking discussion that challenges the boundaries of what we consider possible and invites us to step into a more connected and conscious future. Liked what you heard?

Joining us is Patricia Walsh, a certified Deep Memory Process (DMP) regression practitioner and Chief Trainer for Dr. Roger Woolger’s Institute of Deep Memory Process. After several years of research and several thousand case studies she authored Understanding Karmic Complexes: Evolutionary Astrology and Regression Therapy (2009).

She presents a model of the soul's journey in which it carries the weight of unresolved issues in the energy of the subtle bodies, shaping our present experiences and potentially manifesting as chronic ailments or unexplained fears. Our conversation navigates the intriguing parallels between Western psychology and Eastern philosophy, exploring a compelling narrative that bridges the gap between Freud's repetition compulsion and the Vedantic concept of samskaras. We investigate how the Tibetan Bardo states can be used as a therapeutic framework to navigate the afterlife - where just like birth, death is also viewed as a pivotal moment whose imprints can be revisited and resolved. We discuss ancestral spirits and the value of healing ancestral trauma. We also touch upon the intriguing subject of what Patricia calls earthbound spirits, and how they can become attached to people energetically. Whether it's confronting the concept of karma or the power of accessing subconscious memory through associative imagery this episode is a testament to the untapped potential within our own psyche. Join us as we share Patricia's heartfelt experiences and practical insights on how past life regression therapy can facilitate profound healing and personal transformation.

| 14 Mar 2024 | A Guide to Authentic Spiritual Practice or Sadhana with Mother Maya Tiwari | 01:02:09 | |
Join us and absorb the wisdom of modern sage Maya Tiwari as she shares insightful perspectives on how to connect to an authentic approach to spiritual practice or sadhana. Fondly called Mother Maya, spiritual pioneer Maya Tiwari is an international teacher of Ayurveda and the founder of the Wise Earth School of Ayurveda, the first of its kind in North America. Author of several bestselling books in Ayurveda and self-healing, she has been trained in the Vedas, Vedanta, Ayurveda, Sanskrit and Vedic Chants by Sri Swami Dayananda Sarasvati, and in Ashtanga Yoga and The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali by Dr. Narasimha Rao. Maya served for two decades as a Vedic monk, belonging to India’s prestigious Veda Vyasa lineage. In 2010, she made the radical decision to renounce her monastic title. This decision was made, as she puts it, to “walk a simpler and more accessible life in service of the populations in need” which she continues to do to this day. Maya shares the journey from her early years in Guyana, abruptly contrasted with her arrival in the hustle of New York's fashion scene. We discuss her battle with ovarian cancer, which served as a catalyst for a monumental shift in her life's direction; an exploration of Vedic wisdom, the deeper connections between our health and our lineage, and the power of ancestral memories, which she believes carry both the weight of past traumas and the potential for holistic healing. Maya fondly recalls her disciplined studies in Rishikesh, India with Vedic scholar Sri Swami Dayananda Sarasvati, sharing the transformative effect of Sanskrit chanting and the purifying rituals that have been integral to her path of self-realization. Maya speaks of how we never teach what we don’t need to learn ourselves. The complexities of healing from trauma, she insists, require a compassionate approach that honors the wisdom of our ancestors while discerning which aspects to carry forward on our unique path. Finally, we converge on the simple yet profound practices of self-love and ahimsa. Maya illuminates the path to tranquility, emphasizing the significance of pausing in our frenetic existence, the powerful simplicity of conscious breathing, creating an inner sanctuary amidst life's tumult, and the perennial wisdom of letting go. Maya established the Wise Earth School of Ayurveda in 1981, with the vision of restoring the long-lost Inner Medicine principles and practices of Ayurveda. Her global conferences and workshops have touched the life of more than 1 million participants. For thirty years, she has inspired and created change in human behaviour, through education, outreach, and service to humankind. Liked what you heard? Help us reach more people!

Join Tom Kenyon, one of the most respected sound healers in the world today, as he reveals the profound ways in which sound intertwines with our consciousness for healing and spiritual growth. A researcher, composer, author, psychotherapist, and teacher, he is regarded as a pioneer in the field of psychoacoustic research. Tom shares his evolution from a young boy enchanted by using sound to alter his feelings and mood, to a masterful sound healer informed by both scientific insight and various spiritual traditions. He shares a mystical kundalini awakening experience that forever altered his path, activated forms of extrasensory perception and inspired him to study neuroscience to understand his spiritual insights. He has since studied multiple ancient wisdoms including Tibetan Buddhism, Taoism, Shamanism and Hinduism. Tom describes how he employs his nearly four-octave range voice in tandem with other acoustic instruments to induce altered, expanded states of consciousness that help access heightened creativity and spiritual insight. He explains the importance of conscious vs unconscious intentionality and how the brain's marvellous capacity for neuroplasticity shapes our perception of reality. We also discuss his encounters with etheric beings the Hathors, and how he maintained open-minded skepticism to navigate the experience, revealing an otherworldly source of knowledge that he continues to collaborate with. As we contemplate the future of sound healing, Tom emphasizes how we are at the edge of great potential for a constructive or destructive future as a civilization, the delicate balance necessary for integrating timeless spiritual practices with modern scientific approaches and the importance of fostering heart-centered authenticity. This episode invites listeners to reflect on the profound ways sound can affect our minds, bodies, and spirit, contemplating the 'field effects' of our presence and language and how they contribute to the collective consciousness. Tom holds a Bachelor of Arts in communications, drama, and speech from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro where he also received the Raymond Taylor Award for Excellence in the Performing Arts. Additionally, Tom has completed coursework in humanistic and psychological counseling, breathwork and medical hypnosis through Columbia Pacific University and the Southeast Institute for Group and Family Therapy.

| 25 Apr 2024 | Taking Responsibility & Finding Freedom: The Embodied Life with Russell Delman | 00:59:53 | |
This inspirational episode promises insights into living a more present, aware, and connected life. Russell Delman, co-developer of The Embodied Life - a transformative approach to human potential, joins us to reveal how to reclaim your personal power by taking responsibility for your internal state, rather than blaming emotional imbalances on other people and the world at large. Russell presents the critical role of embodiment in informing both our healing process and spiritual development, proposing a seismic shift from Western psychology's focus on individuality to recognizing our profound interconnectedness with everything around us. We examine the evolution of spiritual practices as vehicles for genuine healing and Russell's personal story, highlighting his integration of Zen meditation, Gestalt therapy, yoga and the Feldenkrais method. Russell shares a fascinating overview of Moshé Feldenkrais’s life with highlights including engineering, unarmed combat, Judo, the genius of the brain and even nuclear secrets during World War II. He also explains how we are subtly informed by a culture of dissatisfaction, and how certain methods of learning lead to implicit self-acceptance for who we are. We discuss how emotions have both a story and a sensation and how crucial it is to become aware of the various layers of our emotional experiences in healing. Finally, we tackle the art of mastering authentic communication - a necessity for meaningful interactions in our increasingly complex world. Russell offers insights on how to navigate challenging conversations with grace, using presence and self-awareness as tools for understanding. This episode isn't just a conversation; it's an invitation to a more intentional and connected way of being. Russell’s exploration of body/mind perspectives and human potential began while studying psychology at university, sparking a lifelong commitment to awareness. He deepened his understanding through workshops at the Esalen Institute, traveling in the jungles of South America and trainings in Zen meditation and yoga. He has extensively studied Gestalt therapy under Dr. Robert Hall and trained in the Feldenkrais Method with founder Moshé Feldenkrais. His relationship and study with Eugene Gendlin, the founder of the Focusing technique, was also of great significance. Russell was one of the first teachers chosen to lead Feldenkrais Professional Training Programs - he has taught in over 50 international programs, helping to train over 2500 Feldenkrais teachers internationally. Central to Russell’s life are his nearly 50 years of marriage with Linda, co-developer of The Embodied Life, and their journey as parents to their daughter, Liliana. Liked what you heard?

| 09 May 2024 | A Taoist Master Explains Energetic Cultivation & Bioelectric Science with Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming | 00:52:03 | |
Uncover the mysteries of your body's energy systems with Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming, as we traverse the convergence of Eastern spiritual traditions and Western science. One of the most prolific authors in the world on martial arts and qigong, Dr. Yang is known for using his scientific background to introduce ancient qigong theories and practices to western audiences, with a martial arts background in White Crane Kung Fu, Long Fist Kung Fu, and Yang-style Taijiquan (Tai Chi). Dr. Yang joins us to reveal how the four categories of Qigong can escalate one's journey from healing to higher consciousness. He compares the Western understanding of the central nervous system and the Chinese concept of the central qi system, both attempting to elucidate the electrical dynamics inherent within the human body. He shares how women tend to have strong natural qi, which often makes them energetically sensitive and naturally suited for healing work. As Buddhism mingled with ancient Chinese beliefs, Dr. Yang guides us through the resulting religious Taoism and the influence of Indian yoga on Chinese Qigong. We delve into the anatomy of energy according to these traditions, exploring meridians, chakras and dantians. Dr. Yang enlightens us on how disciplines such as physics and mathematics parallel the spiritual practice of meditation, and how mastering the art of stillness can lead to profound personal transformation. He discusses the Taoist principle of Wu Wei, the effortless action of "doing non-doing" that emerges from a profound level of practice. Our conversation culminates in the exploration of the human potential for enlightenment and the untapped capabilities of our minds: considering the body as a bioelectric system or a bio-battery, we contemplate the notion of enlightenment as the result of increasing and balancing energy flow through its circuitry, awakening dormant brain cells and unlocking new frontiers of human consciousness. In 1982, Dr Yang established Yang’s Martial Arts Association (YMAA) in Boston, MA. Since then the YMAA has grown into a network of 30 schools in over 15 countries with Dr. Yang travelling the world training students and giving seminars. Since 2005, Dr. Yang has resided in northern California where he trained a group of disciples in a multi-year comprehensive program from 2008-2018. Today, he continues to author books and teach seminars online and around the world. Liked what you heard? Help us reach more people!

| 12 Sep 2024 | Embodied Healing: Somatics & TRE Trauma Therapy with Dr David Berceli | 00:49:04 | |
Have you ever wondered how your body holds onto stress and trauma - and more importantly, how you can release it? On this episode we welcome Dr. David Berceli, expert in trauma intervention and creator of Tension & Trauma Releasing Exercises (TRE) and author of Shake It Off Naturally. Dr. Berceli introduces us to TRE - an innovative technique that harnesses the body's natural shaking mechanism (neurogenic tremors) to alleviate deep-seated tension and stress. He explains the biological foundation of the practice, highlighting how our bodies are genetically encoded to respond to trauma through specific muscle patterns and reflexes, and how by reversing these patterns individuals can activate the body's natural recovery process. We learn how to contextualize TRE in relation to other trauma healing modalities and somatic therapies such as Somatic Experiencing and Polyvagal Theory. We explore the mechanics of TRE in fostering better energetic flow, encouraging grounding through the energy and physical system. David explains how TRE exemplifies a body intelligence approach, allowing the body to heal itself by sidestepping cognition and the benefits of a non-narrative trauma healing technique. The ability for TRE to work without a narrative is particularly relevant for soldiers and those in war-torn regions who may find recounting traumatic events distressing. We also considered how the vibrations and pulsations elicited in TRE might relate to the spontaneous kriya and kundalini movements from yogic traditions. Our discussion also delves into societal misconceptions around tremoring, emphasizing its importance as a natural and healthy response. Dr. Berceli holds both an academic and experiential grounding in psychotherapy and therapeutic body-work. He has spent two decades living and working in nine countries providing trauma relief workshops and designing recovery programs for international organizations around the world. He has lived and worked extensively in Israel/Palestine, Sudan, Uganda, Kenya, Yemen, Egypt, and Lebanon. His keen understanding of the dynamics of religion and ethnic customs has allowed him to develop unique and specific processes that enable people from all parts of the world manage and move beyond personal trauma as well as bring healing and reconciliation between diverse groups.

Listen to your heart first and foremost. That's where God resides, that's where decision-making should always come from." Prior to Pyramids of Chi, Peter had a dynamic career in marketing and business development. He now continues to expand the global conversation on sound healing and consciousness.

He shares how this visual validation helps bridge the gap between belief and knowledge, allowing people to fully own their healing experiences rather than doubting what they can't see. He describes chakras not as mystical concepts but as actual "lenses of consciousness" that allow us to operate in different dimensions - a perspective that merges ancient wisdom with modern scientific understanding. He expresses his frustration with the current approach to medicine and sees the future transition from chemical to physics based medicine, utilizing the information gleaned from the aura as the next paradigm of guidance for health. Thornton Streeter DSc. is an innovative biofield research scientist and founder of the Centre for Biofield Sciences in India, where he has pioneered the integration of subtle energy fields with modern health diagnostics.

| 10 Apr 2025 | The Sacred Cell - What Cell Membranes Teach Us About Healing Relationships with Diane Tegtmeier | 00:56:00 | |
Our cells have been masterfully navigating relationships for billions of years, what if their wisdom holds the solutions to our deepest relational wounds? Diane Tegtmeier bridges biochemistry, social work, environmental activism and energy healing to reveal how nature's ancient wisdom can transform our most challenging relationships. Drawing from her inspiring work with cell membrane principles, she offers a revolutionary framework that transcends conventional boundaries and polarization. Diane shares her journey from traditional scientist to energy healer after a personal crisis led to a profound perceptual awakening. This transformation allowed her to witness healing in ways her scientific background couldn't have predicted, setting the stage for her unique integration of cellular biology with human connection. At the heart of Diane's approach are six fundamental principles derived from cell membranes, offering practical alternatives to rigid boundaries and providing tools for evolving in relationships. The discussion extends to intergenerational healing, showing how unresolved patterns transmit through family systems and how cell membrane principles can help transform these inherited dynamics. Diane shares personal examples of working with grief and caretaking patterns in her own lineage. As we navigate politically polarized landscapes and environmental crises, Diane suggests these principles offer pathways toward co-creative problem-solving rather than opposition. Her vision for the future of wellness involves communities and governance systems that honor both oneness and uniqueness - much like ecosystems where diverse organisms serve distinct functions while maintaining balance. For anyone seeking to heal relationships, transform collective patterns, or simply understand nature's blueprint for connection, this conversation offers insights and practical tools for personal and societal evolution. Diane Tegtmeier, MSW is a seasoned practitioner with a multifaceted background in biochemistry research, environmental activism, clinical social work and energy healing. She has maintained a private practice since 1994, supporting individuals through trauma, chronic illness and challenging life transitions. She is author of Relationships that Heal, and more recently The Sacred Cell, which explores how principles of nature shape human relationships. Liked what you heard? Help us reach more people!
