CHANGE ALREADY!

Summer Sessions with Jillian Maas Backman Episode #4?

Our country is again experiencing another great divide with violence everywhere as the battle between good and evil continues to roar. While most media coverage is saturating the airwaves with redundant commentary from over- rehearsed pundits touting common solutions to combat evil. Jillian and Delilah suggest a more intimate way towards ataraxis by tapping into the power of personal intuition to promote change within each individual.  Using Jilian's methods can help bring about a peaceful, indivdual which will connect us to others in peace.   #intuition, #jillianmaasbackman #goodvsevil #leadershipdevelopment, #diversity #change #peace

One of the more popular trends in modern spirituality has been the introduction, or re-introduction, of crystals, stones, and gems that contain vibrational qualities meant for healing or balance of the mind, body, and spirit. But, for as much as we know about this practice, there is much to learn.  Kate King Jewellry is a Vibrational Gemstone Collection based on Quantum Physics. The company is dedicated to empowering people to understand their vibrational signature so they can make conscious decisions on the gemstones they choose to wear. When in balance, and our vibration is singing, we feel joy. Discovering the true energetic power of the gemstones helps create the harmony experienced within the mind, body, and soul. Kate King, and her stunning designs, were introduced to Jillian when she also won a 2012 COVR Award for Beyond the Pews: Breaking with Tradition and Letting Go of Religious Lockdown and they quickly became friends.      

Hilton/Asmus Contemporary, 716 N. Wells Street, Chicago Ill, will host a premier event Thursday, April 3, 2014. Triumvirate:Expression of Three will feature the combined works of three artists who express their creations through their indivdual element, Jillian Maas Backman, through the stroke of a pen; John Moulder, through the sound of a musical note: and Arica Hilton, through the color on a painter's palette. Joining the discussion as moderator is Elysabeth Alfano, creator, executive producer, and host of Fear No Art Chicago and The Dinner Party.   Evening includes personal accounts of how these artists transpose universal intuitives of thought, sound, and visual imagery into their own works of art.  This Triumvirate Expression uses the arts to link elemental diversity with creative expression, and share thoughts on how everyone can spin this unconcious, transparent awareness into their own work of art, no matter the meduim.

What does it take to become a spiritual activist, a warrior in world of chaos? Andrew Harvey is a leader at the forefront of a movement of action among those who identify with the teaching of a more mystical approach to traditional religion. Living within a culture that is seeking calm within disorder, Harvey espouses that although there are those who have become more tuned in and awakened consciously, they have not truly touched with the demanding issues facing our world. He calls upon these “awakened” souls to DARE to wake up, DARE to be courageous, and DARE to discover the divine energy for change, action, and life, instead of being “bliss bunnies,” meditating and seeking a divine discovery only on a personal level.

Throughout mankind’s existence there has been a search for a connection to “higher universal power.” History shows us over the ages through various prophets, messengers, and writings that the one true message that transcends above all is love, but how that translates into accepted practices has been the subject of wars and persecution through the ages. Perhaps even the splintering of historical mainstream religions was caused by man’s search for that connection and trends, or even new religious beliefs, began to emerge as civilization began to change. Through discussion and conversation with her guests, Jillian hopes to explore some of the specific trends that are in the recent forefront. Each week she will present information from those considered experts in their field to give listeners a better understanding about topics that are at times mystical, non secular, yet perhaps divine. For those in a spiritual quest, this series promises to be an enlightening journey. To find out more information on this and way in with your opinion in this matter, follow link: http://imaginepublicity.com/2014/02/09/dr-laurie-roth-on-a-national-story-the-church-of-wells/

Described in her book, Beyond the Pews: Breaking with Tradition and Letting Go of Religious Lockdown, there is a movement towards combining the spiritual aspects of east and west, ancient and new, and the pursuit of inner wellness. Readers of the book, which is not necessarily a how to or self-help book, are given specific lessons on how to best use their personal intuitive messages to discover the intentions of the soul, while respecting and connecting with their traditional religious teachings. What new practices have become acceptable in mainstream religious circles, and what has not?What spiritual trends are offering long lasting effects on the lives of those who practice them and seek more knowledge?How have recent spiritual trends caused harmony among those who practice?Have some spiritual trends actually been harmful, causing controversy in mainstream religions?Have spiritual trends become pop culture?

Where do messages come from and are they always an original thought? Most likely not, according to those who subscribe to the “Original Thought Theory” which suggests that anything anyone can ever think of has already been thought by someone else or will be done so by someone in the future, i.e. no thought is original. That being said, “messages” could be formed through experiences and ideas and the culmination of something that could be marketable, such as a book, a song, or a piece of art; an expression of one’s thoughts. Through these avenues the message travels, but how far can it possibly go? Some may sit on their thoughts and messages, keeping to themselves, others wish to share them with the world. There are all types of messengers, whether teachers in academia, religious leaders, or perhaps, a someone willing to break out of what’s been normal for them and seek another path to share their ideas. Many become famous because of the sharing process, but what sets them apart? The audience! People are educated and entertained in a variety of ways, and learning is not often something brought to the doorstep, but something that is sought after by the individual. Whether in a theater, book store, or college campus, the venues for learning are immense. Your message won’t change, but your audience will!

Overnight sensation, Joanna Rohrback galloped on the scene as the new exercise trend, Prancercise, and went viral with a blaze recieving over 9 million views on the internet in 2013, making the rounds of news and talk shows, and the subject of countless parodies. Jillian welcomes the opportunity to talk with the “Prancing Lady” and examine, not only the tenets of her exercise program and how she feels about her 2013 success, but what the future holds for Joanna Rohrback, and where she’s headed with all this steam in the Year of the Horse! 2014 couldn’t be more aptly named for Prancercise considering past shows where Jillian speaks about the Year of the Horse as being the year to expect more in the physical realm, not only embracing more physicality, but also embracing more playfulness. Prancercise is poised to do it all!

Brute Force in the Year of the Horse, 2014 Maybe it’s not fear that stops people from pushing through.  As the cliche says, always trying to put a round peg in a square hole. Don’t most people that change the world do this?  For most it’s an upset to the way things are suppose to be; the unfamilar, the usual, as a painter paints a painting that shocks the system into thinking about subjects in a new light. The “normal” in society tells us that we dont want to rock the boat, but to do what is expected of us, they may talk about us behind our back, call us names, or chastise us into getting back in line because we upset the natural rhythm of things.  Often we don’t try something new because we may be wrong, or aleast it seems wrong from the point of view of “those in charge.” Follow me on twitter @changealready and @jillianmaasbackman.

Addiction is a very big word, and in terms of self-sabatoge it can run the gamut of everything that we chatted about in the previous show, Part I of Thy Shall Remain Disciplined. (Listen to the podcast). From over-eating to severe drug abuse, one element in common is the threshold of danger, danger that can damage any parts of the mind, body and the spirit. During the holiday seasons, we have a tendency to minimize that danger for a few fleeting  moments of perceived holiday fun and sometimes get ahead of ourselves and our loose internal control over these destructive habits. We start by bargaining with that inner voice, “Hey it’s the holiday season, just for now, I will indulge and get myself back on track after the first of the year.” We let our guard down and that may have lasting consequences continuing way past the holiday season. The featured guest on Change Already! with Jillian is Dr. Dalal Akoury from AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center who is back to discuss the holiday season and addictions.

Holidays are a time of great celebrations, but for some it can be the most stressful time of the year, not because of what you may think; grumpy relatives and stressful conversations. It’s more complex than that. The inability to stay true to one’s higher self, that place within that wants inner peace and happiness all year round, and the ability to stay centered in the face of adversity. The next two shows are to help people get past this seasonal hump with a least amount of collateral health damage,with a love thy self attitude and the discipline to achieve it.

Jillian Maas Backman welcomes guest, Jill Angleo, author of Sacred Spaces, Transforming Houses Into Homes, to Change Already! for a compassionate discussion about creating harmonious vibration and energy within your most sacred space, your home.

Jillian’s last show sets the idea with a series of questions about the motivation behind dramaWe see it blatantly on the internet where anyone can “talk,” saying things they would never think of saying out loud in social circles. Hiding behind a screen and fingers on a keyboard, many create pain for others just for the thrill of it, never having to meet those on the other end face to face, crossing all boundaries of social etiquette. There are those who sit on the side lines and watch the drama unfold, never commenting or getting involved, but vicariously getting a thrill out of seeing others squirm. What measures can be taken to set some personal boundaries?

How do you handle drama in your life.  Do you love it or leave it alone?  Are you the one that creates it just to watch the rest of us squim? Listen and take the five intutive quiz to find out if you are Drama Diva, Drama Do-Gooders or a Drama Slayer?   Jillian discuss how we conciously or unconcioulsy react to the human drama of ego. What step we can take to understand and mantain a sense of freedom from drama and put it in it's proper perspective once and for all.

  Having fun in the faith can be found in various ways throughout our human and spiritual experience, we must give ourselves permission to not be so serious in our faith, but to also experience the fun in the spiritual life we have chosen. We, as faithful beings, should not fear that if we are having fun there will be penance due, but that fun and faith go hand in hand in the total human experience and connection to God.   Guy M.

How we can fuse the energies of our soul to assist in the healing process of our physical bodies is one of the untapped areas of traditional western medicine. Although there has been a surge of learning about other types of medical practices and protocols which some doctors are slowly introducing into their patient care, there is a long-standing attitude that only science based procedures have acceptance in the medical community. Not only is the care of our health in crisis, but the care of our souls is also in a chaotic state. How can we better take care of ourselves physically by tapping into the very core of our spiritual being?……our soul.

One Soul Tithes So Another Soul ThrivesNon-Profit and the Arts, Sam Bass Community Theatre is a Winner! The Sam Bass Community Theatre in Round Rock, Texas has been presenting their magic for over 35 years, a non-profit run strictly by volunteers, offering not only quality entertainment to the community, but many theatre education programs, many geared towards youth.

One Soul Tithes So Another Soul Thrives Child abuse and neglect affects over 3 million children each year, some survive and some do not. Studies have shown that childhood maltreatment leads to many chronic illnesses, diseases and mental conditions well into adulthood and if we don’t do something proactive to curb it we are producing adults that perpetuate the cycle. The second show in the series of the will shine the spotlight on a non-profit which is working across the nation to memorialize child abuse victims as they offer education and awareness of this country’s terrible epidemic. Change Already! is moving to the forefront by honoring organizations and individuals who are making positive changes for those around them by featuring the winners in four categories of non-profits.

One Soul Tithes So Another Soul Thrives We all know the popular saying “It is more blessed to give than to receive.”  Whether we want to admit it or not, we all hold a gift of soulful tithing in one capacity or another.  Through money or time given voluntarily we feel good about “paying it forward” to either those less fortunate, or those with a specific need.   The first show of the series featuring the winners of the non-profit contest will focus on the Dinella Foundation of Chicago whose mission is to provide prosthetics which are more realistic in look, c

One sure way of knowing Summer has officially arrived detecting a blurred vision from the corner of an eye, a multi-colored dragonfly quietly buzzing by.  A gentle reminder that change and transformation are soon to arrive.   Jillian Maas Backman‘s show this week takes a whimsical tone towards the unobvious.  What are these transparent and delicate Summer totem animals trying to tell us and we are not getting?  She takes a picture from her own natural surrounding to capture the essence on film and adds her intuitive flavor to create an interactive discussion on “What Color is Your Dragonfly?”

This is the UNEDITED version of the program with Author of BLOODSTAINS, Jeff Mudgett is the great-great-grandson of one of America’s most atrocious serial killer of all, H. H. Holmes.

Pastor Neil Schori brings the traditionally accepted religious perspective to the question of forgiveness. Are we in a position as human beings to show forgiveness to someone who claims to be redeemed? Does God allow these murderers to be forgiven and enter Heaven?  

True Crime author, Diane Fanning, had several communications with serial killer Tommy Lynn Sells. Through that correspondence Sells confessed to the murder of a little boy whose mother had been convicted and sentenced for his death. Through the evidence and statements collected, her testimony was instrumental in setting free an innocent woman. She writes about the case in her book Through the Window.  Fanning says Sells went through his religious “phase” in prison, but it didn’t last. Why?  

Salvation, Reclamation, Deliverance and Emancipation Adjectives used to describe an open-ended religious promise offered to any one who repents and faithfully follows the word of spirit. A unilateral commitment from above that one can be “saved” and forgiven for any sinful acts of deviance. Does this religious safety net genuinely apply to everyone?
