The Body Light

October 21, 2020 13:00 - 10 minutes - 9.97 MB

Color and light are deeply rooted in the early healing practices of ancient cultures. Light defines our universe, and sunlight is the primary source of energy for all life on Earth. Our bodies thrive on incoherent light from the Sun, and our cells emit light (biophotons). The DNA in our cells can produce coherent light, carrying the precise information required for the growth, functioning, and healing of our magnificent bodies. Yes, you and I are the body light! In today’s episode,...

Beyond detecting the presence of friendlies or foes, nature also has a synchronized symphony of frequency that the tiniest of species to massive humpback whales leverage to track their migration patterns. Not only that, but many animals are also thought to have an internal compass and are using other frequencies of Earth, even the universe, to tune into the length of day and night, the phases of the moon, and seasonal changes.  In today’s episode, ALICE asks, ‘What is nature’s vibe...

Thanks to wearable health trackers, we are getting to intimately and instantly know some of the electrical waves inside us. There’s electricity in our bodies, and our cells are conduits of electr...

Cities will be the future in rebuilding our economy. Benjamin Barber (1939 – 2017), an American political theorist spoke with us in 2004, that there is no way that we can deal with health in the setting of one independent nation.

Rollin McCraty, PhD, HeartMath, Our Emotions are Encoded in our Heart Field

September 14, 2020 14:19 - 1 minute - 2.19 MB

WE ARE STANDING WITHIN EACH OTHER’S HEART FIELD. Rollin McCraty, Ph.D., Director of Research at the HeartMath Institute explains that our hearts generate a magnetic field 3 feet from our body. The magnetic field produced by the heart is more than 100 times greater in strength than the field generated by the brain and can be measured up to 3 feet away from the body, in all directions. In studies by the HeartMath Institute, they have found that timing between pulses of the heart’s mag...

Dacher Keltner, Psychologist, On The Power of Emotions Like Gratitude

Dacher Keltner, Social Psychologist, UC Berkeley explains how emotions like gratitude and compassion can help you with stress. (And our gratitude to frontier thinkers reimagining our future.) So how do you create a society that is addicted to health? “When we are in emotions like gratitude or compassion, it is almost impossible, physically, to be stressed. They just are antithetical, anatomically.” These words have stayed with us since our 2011 interview with Social Psychologist, Da...

September 14, 2020 14:16 - 2 minutes - 4.89 MB

Philosopher Ervin Laszlo, Interview with Sputnik Futures, 2002: “Now I think it’s time to come back to this concept of belonging, to a larger community, the community of life on Earth. Which is itself a part of the community of the solar system, part of the galaxy, part of the universe. So this is a cultural change, a change in consciousness. I think it is the key to creating a future that’s livable and it's enduring. Well, Holos arrives if and when there is a real transformation of...
