infrared saunas - the healing benefit's of light & fever

January 02, 2023 23:01 - 36 minutes - 31.2 MB

Light is certainly an under-appreciated powerhouse for healing. No more so than the infrared spectrum. With varying wavelengths of Near, mid and far, each helping to support the body in various ways from detoxification (from both water-soluble and fat-soluble toxicity), increasing energy production (by the support of the mitochondria), a strong support for our immune system, support for blood flow and circulation (by the increase production of nitric oxide) and many many more. I ha...

what is Mild Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, or mHBOT?

December 15, 2022 22:31 - 23 minutes - 16.5 MB

In this week's episode of the Cura podcast, we are covering mild hyperbaric oxygen therapy. This form of therapy has been more and more in the headlines because it has allowed hyperbaric oxygen to become readily available with the creation of the 1.3 atm and the 1.5 atm chambers. With these mild hyperbaric oxygen chambers it removes a lot of the complications of the high pressured chambers as well as the expense. Making it possible for almost anyone to enjoy the benefits of the incr...

ozone therapy - a powerhouse for healing

December 07, 2022 02:08 - 25 minutes - 18 MB

In this episode of the Cura podcast, I speak with Gemma about ozone therapy, more specifically about the HOCATT, which is a very powerful ozone sauna. This particular sauna makes use of many different healing modalities within a single session. I have personally used one for close to 3 years and I have been amazed at the power it has for healing the body, but most importantly of just how non-invasive it is. I have been a big fan of ozone therapy and have used it in almost every way...

what is the re:focus program - deep dive into holistic healing

November 23, 2022 01:22 - 36 minutes - 31.1 MB

This week Gemma McDonnell and I go into a deep dive about what the refocus program (which is the collaboration between her work and Cura Romana) is all about. We speak in depth about the nature of healing. The role that patterns and traumas play in both the healing process and the physical symptoms that often express themselves through these unresolved conflicts we often carry within our body. This episode is well worth listening to even if you're not considering looking further at t...

Interview with Gemma Mc Donnell - overcoming Lyme disease through Cura Romana

September 25, 2022 04:09 - 41 minutes - 27.7 MB

Today I have for you an interview with Gemma McDonnell. Who has had a remarkable story of her Cura Romana program. She has been on the inner circle program twice. Once with myself and once with Leslie. Using the Cura Romana protocol she has been able to overcome her Lyme disease. Through the process of working with Gemma we have become close friends and collaborators in sharing knowledge about how to support people's health naturally. This has been a fascinating process for both of...

Sacred Truth Ep. 77: Truth About Fluoridation

November 09, 2016 09:14 - 8 minutes - 7.55 MB

The misrepresentations and ignorance surrounding arguments about fluoridation never cease to amaze me. Let me share with you a few of them: There is still a common belief that countries which fluoridate water have less tooth decay than non-fluoridated countries. This is completely untrue. Yes US with its fluoridated water did experience a big decline in tooth decay in the past 60 years. But the same decline in tooth decay took place in European countries and other in developed count...

Sacred Truth Ep. 76: Bio-identical Hormone Secrets

November 02, 2016 06:36 - 8 minutes - 8.23 MB

For those of you who have already seen our first five videos on bio-identical hormones I think it's time to deal with some frequently asked questions as well as help you refresh your memory about the nature of bio-identical hormones. They are so very different from synthetic drugs, which can damage your body. So let me explain by answering a few simple questions. Well-known examples of bio-identical hormones like estrogen, progesterone, pregnenolone, DHEA, melatonin, and testosterone...

Sacred Truth Ep. 75: End Hypothyroid

October 05, 2016 09:12 - 11 minutes - 10.3 MB

The number of people I work with on Cura Romana who report that they have long been suffering from a thyroid condition never ceases to amaze me. Almost none of them are aware that low thyroid function is treatable by using well-prescribed bio-available hormones. Your thyroid is responsible for so many functions in the body that are absolutely critical to wellbeing. Even a minor deficiency in the thyroid gland’s ability to produce adequate levels of thyroid hormone can not only disrup...

Sacred Truth Ep. 74: Your Hormone Questions Answered

September 28, 2016 06:44 - 10 minutes - 9.71 MB

How do we identify hormonal deficiencies and imbalances? It’s an important question. Many practitioners trained in the use of bio-identical hormones rely heavily on laboratory tests to guide them in establishing which hormones in a patient’s body are not functioning at optimal levels. These lab tests are most commonly carried out by an analysis of the blood, saliva, or 24-hour urine tests. The problem is that lab reports can be confusing. Hormones are by far and away the most powerfu...

Sacred Truth Ep. 73: Bio-identical Hormones Transformations

September 21, 2016 08:57 - 9 minutes - 9.11 MB

When I wrote my biggest book on menopause PASSAGE TO POWER...Natural Menopause Revolution, few women had ever heard of bio-identical hormones. Even fewer practitioners knew much about the important role bio-identicals could play in improving health and slowing the aging process. Instead, women all around the world had been taught to believe that synthetic drugs were the answer to female problems. Already, pharmaceutical corporations were busy flogging their wares to the media, to the...

Sacred Truth Ep. 72: Essential Hormonal Truths

September 14, 2016 08:52 - 11 minutes - 10.5 MB

What few people know is that the body's natural hormones are far more powerful than drugs. They can even alter the expression of our genes. When you have good hormonal control this leads to experiencing the very highest capacity for human health.   Your body contains more than 100 different kinds of hormones. These amazing powerhouses pour into your bloodstream and supply your body with literally thousands of billions of units each day. When they are in good balance they help control...

Sacred Truth Ep. 71: Synthetic Hormones Can Be Killers

September 07, 2016 10:12 - 9 minutes - 8.83 MB

I keep being asked about bio-identical hormones. How do they work? How early in life can we benefit from using them and how late in life? Are they safer and more effective than synthetic HRT or other pharmaceuticals drugs that go on being prescribed for depression, thyroid, cancer, and heart conditions? Since PASSAGE TO POWER, my biggest book on natural menopause, was first published, the suppression of truths about the value of natural hormones has been violently suppressed. This is...

Sacred Truth Ep. 70: Epsom Salts Reborn

August 31, 2016 09:42 - 8 minutes - 7.51 MB

Epsom salts baths are one of the world’s most potent yet underrated natural treatments. Don’t take them lightly. They can improve your health and they cost almost nothing. They can be useful if you have been having a stressful day because they deep cleanse the body, both physiologically and energetically. They are great for encouraging deep, restful sleep and relaxation. Epsom salts also carry a magic that goes way beyond this. Lying in an Epsom salts bath is a superb way to enter yo...

Sacred Truth Ep. 69: Olive Oil Corruption

August 24, 2016 09:26 - 7 minutes - 7.19 MB

Have you ever wondered why it's so hard to find a great tasting extra virgin olive oil? I did until quite recently when I discovered a confidence game that’s been going on for years. Let me tell you about it. A worldwide adulteration of olive oils has been taking place for years. Extra virgin oils are being diluted, contaminated, and filled with additives, which destroy their taste, texture, and health value to those of us who buy them. Between 75% and 80% of all extra virgins oils s...

Sacred Truth Ep. 68: End Depression

August 17, 2016 11:13 - 10 minutes - 9.84 MB

Most of what we've been taught about depression and its causes is not valid. Most so called anti-depressant pharmaceuticals don’t work. And, if taken long term they can seriously undermine your health and screw up your metabolism so that it can become very difficult to unwind the mess. A mounting mass of evidence shows that antidepressants are no better than placebos when it comes to the benefits they have long thought to bestow. An amazing 20% of Americans over the age of 12 are sti...

Sacred Truth Ep. 67: Magic Motherwort - calm and courage for your health

August 10, 2016 11:27 - 6 minutes - 6.42 MB

Let we share with you my very favorite plant for soothing, healing and helping when you need it most. It is Motherwort—Leonurus cardiaca. In the Chinese pharmacopeia it’s known as Yi Mu Cao, meaning “Lion's Tail.” A herb of the heart, this humble plant grows in waste lands. Motherwort is the most comforting herb I have ever found anywhere. It brings a sense of inner security and calm strength unequalled by anything, except perhaps a love affair of the deepest order—maybe not even tha...

Sacred Truth Ep. 66: Stop Hair Loss

August 03, 2016 09:50 - 9 minutes - 8.85 MB

Are you worried about hair loss? Let’s take a look at both causes and cures. And there can be many causes, from hormonal imbalances due to under active thyroid, drugs, pharmaceuticals, and poor diet, especially too few B complex vitamins, Vitamin C, zinc, sulfur, and iron. But if you find you’re losing hair at a rapid rate, don't panic. It’s normal to lose 50 to 100 hairs each day. There is a strong link between anxiety and hair loss, especially excess shedding of hair at the telogen...

Sacred Truth Ep. 65: Come Alive & Cook

July 27, 2016 10:58 - 7 minutes - 6.84 MB

In the realm of cooking a whole new ethos is being born. You don’t need to have every ingredient to make a recipe work. I no longer worry about coming into my kitchen and making a meal out of practically nothing—wilted spinach, whatever herbs I have in the garden, four eggs, an apple, half a carrot, and a piece of fresh ginger. Make up your own recipes. Don’t get hung up on measurements. Use them only as guidelines. Try a little more of something that intrigues you, a little less of ...

Sacred Truth Ep. 64: Smart Meters Are Insane - A Danger To Your Healthl

July 20, 2016 08:05 - 7 minutes - 7 MB

The bottom line is this: If you already have a smart meter installed in your home, I suggest you ring your electricity supplier and demand that they remove it. If you do not have one, never agree let them put one in. I also suggest that you watch a superb Canadian film on smart meters to find out the truth about these devices. Go online and search for the film “Take Back Your Power.” It is thorough, fascinating, and accurate. You will learn from it all you need to know. You can also ...

Sacred Truth Ep. 63: Secret Paths To Energy

July 13, 2016 10:44 - 8 minutes - 8.02 MB

“I’ve got no energy.” It’s the complaint I hear most often from men and women...an experience that carries endless consequences: feeling sluggish, unmotivated, and devoid of the sparkle that makes life enjoyable. In truth, energy potential is still there within you. It just needs to be rediscovered and set free. Begin by listening your soul’s whispers, and the rest comes naturally. Get into your body. Did you know that how you think and feel are inextricably linked to how well your...

Sacred Truth Ep. 62: Your Second Brain Is A Superpower For Your Health

July 06, 2016 06:12 - 7 minutes - 7.08 MB

What do you know about your second brain? Never heard of it? Few people have. But so important is it to your health, ability to deal with stress, emotional balance, and spiritual life that you need to learn about it as quickly as possible. Your digestive system is, in truth, a second brain. It boasts more nerve endings than the brain itself. Most people find this astounding. When we eat foods that antagonize these nerve endings, we experience all sorts of negative physical and emoti...

Sacred Truth Ep. 61: Unleash Creative Power

June 29, 2016 11:14 - 5 minutes - 4.95 MB

Every human being is brimming with creative power. Creativity lies at the core of what it is to be fully alive and vital, so each of us can express our unique visions as gifts to all life. I believe it’s time to set free our indestructible passion to create from the core of our being. I believe that we are all being called to do this, not only for our own sake but also for the sake of all beings and the Earth itself. I am excited about answering the call. Are you? Creativity is a mi...

Sacred Truth Ep. 60: Sleep Your Fat Away

June 22, 2016 06:31 - 4 minutes - 4.67 MB

Want to control your weight? The key to this may be simpler than you think: get more sleep. A brand new study of 1800 sets of twins reveals that the twins who slept nine plus hours a night had a drastically increased ability to combat genetically-predisposed weight gain compared to the twins who slept less than seven hours. What this means is that when you do get enough sleep, your genes become less critical in determining how much weight your body lays down. But you need no longer ...

Sacred Truth Ep. 59: Get High On Life

June 15, 2016 09:08 - 4 minutes - 4.46 MB

I once spent the night lying on a platform above an animal watering hole staring into the vastness of space while beholding the great, fathomless mystery of the African sky. Aaron, my youngest son, then three years old, lay curled up next to me like a kitten lost in his dreams. Dazzled by the inconceivable expanse of the sky whose darkness was so overcome with the light from billions of stars that lived in it, I lost myself in timelessness and infinity. That night I had come not to t...

Sacred Truth Ep. 58: White Powder Changes Lives - Baking Soda For Your Health

June 08, 2016 08:51 - 4 minutes - 4.62 MB

Sodium bicarbonate—commonly known as baking soda—is derived from naturally occurring mineral deposits. It’s something most of us keep around the house for cleaning or, as its name suggests, baking purposes. It’s been used in this way for more than 150 years. This humble powder has many more applications than you might imagine. It can be a common cure for simple maladies, ranging from removing nasty splinters to clearing a common cold. In this day and age, where drugs of questionable ...

Sacred Truth Ep. 57: Avoid Buying Farmed Fish

June 01, 2016 09:55 - 6 minutes - 6.14 MB

Did you realize that as of this moment, half of the seafood in the world no longer comes from wild oceans and rivers but from fish farm? This is not only salmon but hundreds of other fish, which are now farmed. And the number of fish farms continue to rise exponentially. So what? So lots of things! Fish farming corporations hide the inconvenient truths about how their fish are raised, what they are fed, and the dangers that aquaculture brings not only to wild fish who share the same...

Sacred Truth Ep. 56: Beware Of "The Pill"

May 25, 2016 11:15 - 8 minutes - 7.79 MB

For more than 50 years we women have been sold birth control pills. I first came upon it when I was 21 years old. Having given birth to a little girl my second child—and I was concerned about not becoming pregnant again. At that time birth control pills were dolled out for free to women. You just showed up at the Margaret Sanger Clinic, then housed in a building at 17 W. 16th St in New York not far from where I lived. I went there believing this new discovery—the birth control pill—w...

Sacred Truth Ep. 55: Vitamin B12 For Great Energy

May 18, 2016 08:21 - 8 minutes - 7.63 MB

The least understood of all nutrients, Vitamin B 12 is a huge molecule. It has long been known as “the energy vitamin.” And rightly so. You need to have lots of it in your body in order to thrive and protect yourself from fatigue and degenerative conditions. Vitamin B12 plays a major role in DNA synthesis, the formation of healthy blood cells, and the production of energy in your mitochondria. Yet Vitamin B12 deficiency is now rampant. At least one in four people in the Western world...

Sacred Truth Ep. 54: Live Your Truth

May 11, 2016 09:29 - 8 minutes - 7.5 MB

We are poised at a moment in history where one age is dying and the next is about to be born. Each of us is being faced with a choice. As we sense the foundations of our world shaking, do we withdraw in anxiety and try to hang on to what we once believed to be “the way things should be?” Do we become paralyzed, and attempt to cover our fear with apathy? Or do we embrace the courage being offered to us by a Universe in flux, and, step-by-step, commit ourselves to discovering who in es...

Sacred Truth Ep. 53: Fabulous New Omega-7

May 04, 2016 08:49 - 7 minutes - 7.08 MB

I want to share with you some exciting news about a still largely unrecognized fatty acid that confers significant health and longevity benefits. It’s great, thanks to its health enhancing properties. Fatty acids are vital to human life. They are our cells’ primary energy source. They also serve as a structural component for every one of our cells. They’ve found that Omega-7 brings about an increase in the breakdown of fat as well as an increase in the enzymes involved in fat burnin...

Sacred Truth Ep. 52: Genetically Engineered Salmon

April 27, 2016 10:39 - 5 minutes - 5.23 MB

I love wild salmon. I always have. It’s not only delicious, but full of the best quality natural Omega 3 oils in an ideal ratio of 6 to 9 parts of Omega 3 to 1 part of Omega 6. Because 95% of our cell membranes contain fat, without adequate Omega 3 fats cells cannot function properly. The terrible news is this: our beautiful wild salmon may already be on the way to becoming little more than an ancient memory. Let me explain. The US Food and Drug Administration is notorious, under p...

Sacred Truth Ep. 51: Ashwagandha and Female Sexuality

April 20, 2016 09:26 - 6 minutes - 6.01 MB

For many years I’ve worked with herbs. I love the purity of them and their effectiveness when used to treat everything from infections and fatigue to depression and clearing stress. High on the list of my favorite herbs is Ashwagandha. It is also one of the most powerful herbs in Ayurvedic healing. It's been used since ancient times to impart the vigor and strength of a stallion to the body. In fact, in Sanskrit, the name itself means "the smell of the horse." Ashwagandha has long be...

Sacred Truth Ep. 50: Thyroid Truths

April 13, 2016 10:25 - 8 minutes - 8.28 MB

50 VIDEO THYROID TRUTHS Everybody knows that if you can’t lose weight and keep it off, you need thyroid meds, right? Wrong! Thyroid drugs are most certainly not the answer. Common thyroid drugs like levothyroxine, but known by many other names too have long been used with little success in the treatment of underactive thyroid, Hashimoto's disease, enlarged thyroid gland, thyroid cancer, and myxedema. They are also prescribed on the false belief that they help weight loss in hypothyr...

Sacred Truth Ep. 49: Inflammation—Put Out the Fire

April 06, 2016 10:20 - 6 minutes - 5.65 MB

The most dangerous damage your body ever has to handle is inflammation. When your body becomes inflamed this can trigger serious degenerative illnesses, from early aging and heart disease to diabetes, arthritis, food intolerance, and mental disorders. Inflammation is your body’s natural response to infection, injury, and tissue damage. It comes in two forms: Acute inflammation and chronic/ systemic inflammation, which spreads throughout your body. Acute inflammation is temporary, the...

Sacred Truth Ep. 48: Kneipp's Water Power Works Wonders

March 30, 2016 09:20 - 7 minutes - 6.61 MB

One of the oldest systems of natural healing in the world uses hot and cold baths and showers to increase your vitality, balance hormones, beautify skin, tone muscles, clear your mind, and vitalize your nervous system, lymphatic system, and circulation. It quickly brings you a sense of wonderful aliveness, and all the while it is dissolving, transporting, and clearing rubbish from your body and psyche. The father of all water therapies was Father Sebastian Kneipp, the Bavarian prie...

Sacred Truth Ep. 47: Statins - Don't Believe All You're Told

March 23, 2016 10:34 - 8 minutes - 7.54 MB

I continue to be horrified by guidelines issued by the American Heart Association and American College of Cardiology, which speak of giving statin drugs to healthy people. Meanwhile, draft recommendations from the US Preventive Task Force have issued new directives claiming that healthy people should be taking statin drugs as a “preventative against possible future illness.” Their main plan is to see one third of all adults in the United States are put on statin drugs—44% of all men ...

Sacred Truth Ep. 46: Aromatherapy Heals Body & Soul

March 16, 2016 08:40 - 7 minutes - 7.41 MB

The power that floral essential oils can exert over mind and body has been known for centuries. For example, before Cleopatra sailed out to meet Marc Antony, she drenched the sails of her barge with the scent of jasmine—an aphrodisiac. He could not resist her. The faintest hint of a floral perfume can transport you back to a place in your memories, and evoke all the emotions that go with it. Why should something as ordinary as a scent have such a powerful effect upon you? It is b...

Sacred Truth Ep. 45: The Zen Of Stress-Free

March 09, 2016 10:43 - 13 minutes - 12.7 MB

Cats laze in the sun. The caterpillar dozes on a tomato plant. A bumblebee nestles between two blades of grass. Yet we humans seem to be continually on the run. It’s as though we have become programmed by the media, advertising, and personal growth gurus to do it better and faster, to be more efficient, to keep going no matter what. We have lost the art of stillness. As a result, we miss out on the gifts that come to us when for a time we put aside doing and let ourselves just enjoy ...

Sacred Truth Ep. 44: Herbs Slow Aging

March 01, 2016 21:26 - 8 minutes - 8.11 MB

Real age—your biological age—has little to do with how old you are in years. Most people age prematurely. This is avoidable. It is also reversible. Some of the reasons I have such a passion for herbs is: when you know what to use, they can slow biological aging, help restore balance, and improve how you look and feel, as well as how your body functions. Combined with regular detoxification and a natural diet low in carbohydrates and sugars but high in a wide variety of fresh vegetabl...

Sacred Truth Ep. 43: Celebrate Coffee

February 24, 2016 09:59 - 5 minutes - 5.59 MB

Despite the warnings in recent years about how dangerous coffee is to health—and there is truth in many of them—coffee has many benefits to mind and body. It’s been prescribed for generations in the treatment of asthma, vertigo, headache, jaundice, and even snakebite. A poultice of wet coffee grounds speeds up the healing of insect stings and bruises. Coffee enemas have long been used internally as a strong purgative stimulant to both the bowels and the liver in the natural treatment...

Sacred Truth Ep. 42: Are You Plagued By Hunger?

February 16, 2016 21:23 - 5 minutes - 5.44 MB

Have you ever wondered what triggers your hunger? Sometimes even after eating a good meal? Then let me share some interesting truths with you. Hunger signals come from your brain’s appetite control centers. These are meant to tell you when you need to eat. The problem is that these days, control centers in most people’s brains no longer function as they are meant to as a result of the way we’ve been taught to live and eat in the modern world—masses of packaged foods, grains, sugars, ...

Sacred Truth Ep. 41: Cool Hot Flashes

February 10, 2016 05:19 - 8 minutes - 7.84 MB

The most common herald of menopause is the appearance of hot flashes. These are virtually synonymous in the experience of many women. An adjunct to hot flashes are night sweats where you awaken drenched in sweat, so much so sometimes that you not only need to change your night clothes but the sheets on your bed as well. Both night sweats and hot flashes can be disconcerting if you are frightened of them. Don’t be. A lot can be said about hot flashes, but there are only two facts tha...

Sacred Truth Ep. 40: Eat Fat For Health

February 03, 2016 10:30 - 7 minutes - 7.41 MB

All over the world, people are getting sicker by the year, while food manufacturers, government bodies, and the mainstream medical profession keep telling us to eat more low-fat-high-carb foods and plenty of unsaturated golden oils. They warn us to stay away from all the “dangerous” saturated fats and oils. So we go on buying convenience foods riddled with carbs and sugars, believing that we are doing the right thing to protect from heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and mounting degen...

Sacred Truth Ep. 39: Animal Wisdom

January 27, 2016 08:08 - 8 minutes - 8.18 MB

Watch an animal move. The rhythmic lope of a wolf and the way its body becomes the motion. A horse in a field—tossing its mane, pounding its hooves, running for sheer pleasure. The dolphin as it leaps high in the air above the water, twisting its powerful body then disappears beneath the waves to emerge a minute later in another joyous leap. For many years, I wondered why most of us after childhood no longer experience this kind of rhythmical freedom, joy and vitality. Why, so ofte...

Sacred Truths Ep. 38: The Zen Of Infinite Reality

January 20, 2016 04:54 - 11 minutes - 10.7 MB

It's invited me to move beyond thought towards a place of unity with the rest of the universe. All this continues gnawing at me. I suspect it will never go away, just as the urge to breathe never goes away, no matter how long we try to hold our breath. What I did not know—and this took me scores of years to find out—is that the rabbit hole into which I had unexpectedly tumbled has for millennia, been, described by every culture and religion in the world in one form or another. No...

Sacred Truths Ep. 37: The Power Of Charisma

January 13, 2016 07:22 - 6 minutes - 6.33 MB

Charisma—the real McCoy—has unique qualities: Expansiveness, energy, joy, creativity. It is not only a way of being which calls forth all the powers at your disposal— from pragmatic to inspirational, from intellectual to intuitional. It's a natural way of relating to yourself, those you work with and play with—even to the planet itself. At its core, charisma is disarmingly simple yet immeasurably complex. Living your life with charisma is nothing more than living from a full and ho...

Sacred Truths Ep. 36: Cura Changes Lives - Safe Natural Weight Loss

January 06, 2016 05:59 - 3 minutes - 3.76 MB

Conventional diets for shedding unwanted depend on self-denial and willpower. They are full of complex methods for dealing with what is commonly known as cheating. Here's an example. Say you go off your diet by eating a piece of chocolate cake. Then you're supposed to tell yourself, "Never mind, tomorrow I'll skip dinner to make up for it." Except that by the time tomorrow arrives, you've developed even more cravings for even more chocolate, carby stuff and sugary drinks. Anybody tr...

Sacred Truths Ep. 35: CURA 2016 Health & Weight Loss

December 30, 2015 08:50 - 6 minutes - 5.95 MB

Seven years ago, Leslie and I launched our original Cura Romana. We started to work with men and women in countries all over the world. What we learned from these wonderful people went far beyond anything we anticipated. This was not only about how to experience lasting weight loss, but how we could help participants raise their health to levels that are life-changing. We came face to face with the fears, frustrations and addictions that some of you have long wrestled with, and we l...

Sacred Truths Ep. 34: Christmas Without Hangovers

December 23, 2015 05:14 - 6 minutes - 6.26 MB

Over the years, I’ve learned a lot about how to naturally handle unnatural mind and body states—even, god forbid, hangovers. The most obvious way to avoid a hangover is not to drink. If you do drink, then choose only the best—be it wine, whiskey, or whatever—but never overdo it. You don’t need alcohol to be able to dance on tables and celebrate! The best alcohols to drink are those with the fewest unpleasant chemicals—known as congeners—which upset your whole system. King of all the...

Sacred Truths Ep. 33: Bliss Brings Freedom

December 16, 2015 04:05 - 7 minutes - 7.29 MB

I’d like to share with you a life-changing story. Here’s how it begins: “Follow your bliss,” the gypsy said. “Connect with your inner light. Hear the sounds of birds. Taste the ocean’s spray. Listen to the whispers of your soul. Bliss is your key to freedom. Have you forgotten?” The gypsy’s words echoed in my heart. Like most women, I had never followed my bliss. I’d tried my best to do the “right thing”. I’d listened to the voices of others and valued their opinions above my own. A...
