January 24, 2020 21:03 - 16 minutes - 39.5 MB

Can the mind heal the body and can we prove it?  Do we possess hidden superpowers that can affect our physical, mental, and emotional health?  For the past fifty years, we've seen proof of that in the form of the 'placebo effect.'  And while this may prove challenging to the established medical model, it's great news for you and me.  We have within us an inner healer that we can use to promote a quantum leap in how we think about health and healing.

May 01, 2019 00:05 - 16 minutes - 37.7 MB

In part IV of the Hero's Journey, we learn to listen to the small clues that we receive in our life that something is out of balance.  If we hear the "soft signals" and course correct, we can, potentially, avoid the bumpier terrain.  The question is not if life is sending us signals, it's what are the signals?  In this discussion we see how moving away from the victim mentality and change our perspective, we can use the experience to move forward.

September 22, 2018 03:25 - 7 minutes - 17.1 MB

We are often very attached to the stories of who we've been told we are, what we've experienced, and what our circumstances and conditioning have made us believe we are capable of.  We wear labels and identities that aren't usually a true reflection of "who we are".  You are not your story.  You are so much more than that which you have allowed yourself to be identified as.  You are not the label you wear and you are more than the circumstances in your life.  How do we begin to find the trut...

August 20, 2018 16:25 - 8 minutes - 18.7 MB

How is it two people can have a completely different view of the exact same experience? Are we sure that what we "see" is true? How do our experiences create our reality?  These are big questions and deep subject matters, but understanding that each of us has a unique view of the world due to perceptions colored by lenses of past experiences, helps us to begin to clear our eyes.  If we are to try and understand how another person navigates their reality, we must begin to recognize that our v...
