Living in Joy

Did you know sickness is a decision you make? Most people don't. On today's show, Lisa talks about the one decision you must make to live a life of joy, truth, and freedom. 

Are you ready for unconscious fear to come to the surface to be seen, healed, and released? On today's show, you will identify what you want and be encouraged to write down the old habits and distractions that have been holding you back. 

Healing is an ability that can and must be developed if you are to heal. Come join Lisa Natoli—the creator of The 40-Day Program for Transformation—as she shares from Chapter 7 of A Course in Miracles about developing your ability to heal.

Do you find fault in others? If you are like most people, finding fault is an unconscious everyday (hourly!) occurrence. Finding fault in others puts your focus, attention, and energy outside of the truth of what you are. In this one hour with Lisa Natoli, you will learn how easy it is to stop your thoughts from faultfinding and redirect the energy to move in a new direction: within.   

Does your body seem real to you? Do you identify it as yourself? Do you think your body is you? Join Lisa Natoli as she defines the body and continues discussing the practice of "going beyond the body." In this one hour, Lisa shares how her life changed with a decision to start liking herself. If you are ready to experience freedom and return to sanity, you can choose the see your body with a new purpose. Your body can be used as a way to know yourself, as a way to reach out beyond yourself.   

There is a practice of going "beyond the body" that will first dissolve all emotional states of disharmony and then will begin to heal the physical. This is not an out-of-body experience but a natural occurrence. There is a way to train yourself to actively and deliberately go beyond the body where the love of you rushes to join with something or someone else. On today's show, spiritual teacher and minister Lisa Natoli teaches from Chapter 18 of A Course in Miracles, describing the practice of going "beyond the body" that results in joy, healing, and inner peace.   

Join Lisa Natoli and Max Just as they talk about the importance of practicing, especially as it relates to A Course in Miracles. What does practicing mean when it comes to awakening and transformation? If you keep doing the same thing that has not been working for you, you keep falling into the same hole. Having consistent daily habits in your thinking, emotions, and the way you use language will cause dramatic changes in your life. No matter what difficulty you face, you can stop it right now because you are a divine being. 

Who would you be without your story? What would it be like to live without a past or a future? Come join Lisa Natoli as she reads and discusses Byron Katie's new book, A Mind at Home With Itself. In this book, Byron Katie doesn't merely describe the awakened mind; she allows us to see it and feel it in action. The book is for everyone who wants to discover how to live in harmony with the way things are. It is a book about effortless generosity, questioning the thoughts that keep you from love, and the radiant simplicity of the mind that abides nowhere. 

Become more conscious and aware of joy. Joy equals love, and healing equals wholeness. Healing means wholeness. The only whole state (to be wholehearted) is the wholly joyous. How do you get there? How do you move from pain and conflict to a state of happiness, peace, and joy? Come join Lisa Natoli, teacher of A Course in Miracles, as she lists her own five steps to freedom: Listening to your inner voice, always be yourself (come out of hiding), authenticity, be present, relax each day. There are two camps of people: those who sit on the sideline making commentary and those in the game. Which are you? Do you sit on the sideline of your life, making comments about those in the game? Or are you in the game, actively alive, vibrant, fully engaged, not knowing what will happen next? If you are ready to experience joy, tune in! 

Does your body seem frail and weak to you? Do you often feel like a prisoner in it, bound to aging, aches, pains, sickness, and limitation? If so, this show is for you. A Course in Miracles is very clear that you are not a body—you are  free. Yet there is an interesting sentence in Workbook Lesson 135 that says, "The body will be strong and healthy if ... " Come join Lisa Natoli as she talks about this idea, along with how defenses and planning are attacks against yourself. The body needs no complicated structures of defense, no health-inducing medicine, no care, and no concern at all. As you perceive the body as being apart from you, in service to the Holy Spirit, it becomes a healthy, serviceable instrument through which the mind can operate until its usefulness is finished. If you are ready to experience yourself in a whole new way, tune in! 

All problems, difficulties, pain, and sickness come from one thing: the belief in separation. If you experience pain and problems, you are living off-centered, alone in a world of seeming separate bodies that you think have nothing to do with you. Come join spiritual teacher Lisa Natoli, cofounder of the Teachers of God Foundation, as she talks about trust. Trust is the recognition of everything as perfect, exactly as it is. When you don't have trust, you want to control other people's behavior and attempt to change circumstances. Without trust, you have to always be alert and on guard so things go your way. With trust, you see everything as perfect. On today's show, Lisa gives a visual description of "being in the center" (where you have no problems) and "being in the outer circle" (where all problems and difficulties occur). You don't have to suffer, at all, ever again. 

Thought and belief combine into a power surge that moves mountains. Jesus gives a four-step remedy for healing in A Course in Miracles, and it's so simple anyone can do it. It requires you to forgive, love, and let go of fear. If you are willing to do that, you can heal anything. It requires a total commitment and constant mind-watching, which most people are not used to. We are used to complaining, criticizing, blaming, feeling guilty, attacking, gossiping, judging, comparing, and looking outside ourselves for healing and solutions. Jesus says, "You are much too tolerant of mind-wandering." Come join Lisa Natoli, spiritual director of the Teachers of God Foundation, as she shares the four steps for the correction of fear that lead to healing. 

Are you ready for the best job ever? What would it be like to be taught and trained by the greatest teacher who ever lived, Jesus Christ? He is here, available to you and to everyone who is ready for a radically new way of living in the world. Come join Lisa Natoli as she shares her personal experience of working with Jesus on a day-to-day, moment-by-moment basis. The mind that was in Christ Jesus is in you, as you, and he needs your hands, your feet, your ears, your eyes, and your voice that his mind and message be brought into the world to lead people home to God. The instruction manual is in A Course in Miracles, a step-by-step way of opening up the path to light so you come to know your Self. You have an Inner Teacher, Guide, Instructor, Counselor, and Advisor with you, as you, who speaks to you all through the day. Your part is to be happy, listen, learn, and do. Jesus will tell you what to do, but he needs you to do it.   

Come join Lisa Natoli and Jesus for a review of the laws of healing from A Course in Miracles! Lisa has devoted her life to teaching, training, and transformation. In this episode, she shares her experience of making a decision to let go of the idea of separation, to forgive everyone and everything, and to love everyone and everything. This choice to be a clear channel of communication for the love of God on earth is available to anyone who is ready. Healing is a decision you make, and our host will discuss the importance of letting the belief in separation go if you want to experience peace and joy. When the belief in separation is gone, sickness goes with it. There is no need to suffer. 

The happiest and most successful people know how to control their emotions and train their thoughts. Do you realize that every single thing that happens in your life is for your good? It doesn't always feel this way when things are breaking, shifting, falling apart, and people are doing and saying things against you. However, what if you knew that everything happening to you is for you? The key to happiness is through disciplining your mind to have all-inclusive faith, to know that every single person is playing their part perfectly for your awakening, transformation, and for your good. In this episode, Lisa Natoli teaches from A Course in Miracles about the practical and simple rules for "setting the goal" in advance for what you want in any situation.

Come join Lisa Natoli as she shares the most powerful practice she knows about how to change the way you feel: prayer and relaxation. In the first half hour, Lisa shares from the booklet The Song of Prayer from the Foundation for Inner Peace about true prayer. In the second half hour, join in a relaxation practice from A Course in Miracles' Workbook Lesson 109: "I rest in God." Discover how simple it is to go past the dark cloud of your grievances and reach the light within you. This light knows what to do—it can heal all problems and end all suffering, dissolve all pain. Here is the thing: You have to work with the light. It's there now, just waiting for you to acknowledge it. Be still and not block it with your grievances and fear. Come find out how easy it is to live in joy. 

You have the power and ability to create the reality you choose. You are not hardwired to be a certain way for the rest of your life. You are not destined for pain, problems, difficulties, anger, and struggling. Join Lisa Natoli as she talks about teacher, author, and scientist Dr. Joe Dispenza and concepts from his book Breaking the Habit of Being Yourself: How to Lose Your Mind and Create a New One. Lisa shares her experience attending a Progressive Weekend Workshop with Dr. Joe Dispenza and how it changed her life. Learn how a strong meditation practice can help you overcome your environment and the importance of staying present.      

Do you have fear around money? Want to get out of debt? Can you imagine feeling excited to pay your bills on time? Are you ready to rock your world inside out and upside down with a new way of living that results in abundance? Are you ready to stop thinking and wishing that your life would start and actually start living? Join Lisa Natoli, minister, best-selling author, and spiritual teacher, as she shares her personal rags-to-riches story and how you don't have to wait for the material things to show up to begin living in a whole new way that results in everything you have ever wanted.   For more information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit teachersofgod.org. 

If you have done A Course in Miracles, done the workbook lessons, read all 31 chapters, and you are still in judgment, conflict suffering, still experiencing guilt or doubt, this show is for you! Lisa Natoli will read from her handwritten notes taken from the seven-day Rupert Spira Retreat that she attended at the Garrison Institute in New York. Rupert Spira, author of several books including his latest, The Nature of Consciousness: Essays on the Unity of Mind and Matter, is a brilliant teacher of nonduality who teaches what he calls “the direct path” to knowing your self, your essential self, your true nature. Find out why even after you have the realization of your true identity, you still see/experience residual effects from your old thought system. Also, Rupert talks about how mantra meditation is an indirect path (it will eventually lead you there), but it still keeps your attention on the objective world (on a word, on the breath), so it’s not still focusing on Source.  For more information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, visit teachersofgod.org.

Bring a piece of paper and pen to this show with Lisa Natoli! Is there an area in your life where you've felt stuck in the same holding pattern for years? Do you have a behavior you've tried to change, but it keeps returning? Are your relationships feeling unhealthy? Are you experiencing recurring lack in some area of your life? Joy? Money? Love? Confidence? Self-care?  Here's why: You have a blind spot, a hidden belief that's keeping you stuck. Until you look at these beliefs, you cannot get unstuck by changing your circumstances or behavior. The problem will keep showing up, over and over again. Join Lisa Natoli to learn how to stop resisting, how to get (and stay) unstuck. Learn a new approach to life that will give you confidence, clarity, and enthusiasm to live your ideal life (you need a sheet of paper for this exercise). Find out the importance of recognizing that the change comes from you. If you are ready to move forward boldly and identify, what's holding you back, tune in!    For more information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, visit teachersofgod.org.    

If you have ever wondered why you say you want peace (and joy and happiness), but your experience is conflict, depression, anger, guilt, and doubt, tune in to today's show with Max Just and Lisa Natoli! If you don't have peace consistently, the reason is simple: You don't want it. A Course in Miracles gives us four obstacles to peace, and the No. 1 obstacle is your desire to get rid of it. Do you throw love away when it shows up? Do you look for things to criticize, judge, and fight with when things start to get peaceful? Do you feel stress and anxiety when things start going good? This is a normal, habitual pattern for most people because we have trained ourselves for conflict and struggling in life. Peace makes most people nervous. They think a peaceful life will be boring, so the mind does things unconsciously to stay in drama. If you feel that you really do want peace and you are ready for a life of joy and happiness, where you feel centered, clear, and grateful, this show is for you!    For more information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit teachersofgod.org.

Have you had a glimpse of joy, peace, and happiness and then wondered why you fell back into old habits? Why doesn't happiness and peace stay as a constant state? What can you do to have a more consistent experience of awareness and your self as Presence? Join Lisa Natoli as she talks with Rupert Spira, author and teacher of nonduality, about the importance of practicing. Also in this one hour, a great description of the ego from a nondual perspective and how to relate to the body regarding health, healing, and sickness. Rupert describes how we get "a first glimpse" into our True Nature, but that first glimpse is not enough to dismantle the belief of separation, which you may have been practicing for 30, 40, 50 years. It's like playing the piano. You may have played the piano alone for 10 years, the way you thought you were supposed to play, and may not be aware of some of the habits that keep you from being great. Same with the belief in separation. When you live a certain way for so long (believing in separation, believing in sadness, depression, guilt), it takes a moment for new habits to become your new way of being: The Light of Pure Knowing.    For more information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, visit teachersofgod.org.

Are you ready to permit life to use you in a very intense and authentic way? You can either wait to die or you can be alive. The choice is yours. Join Lisa Natoli as she talks about one of her top role models and inspirations in her own life: American dancer and choreographer Martha Graham (1894–1991). If you feel that you are "too old" to do things you love, this show is for you! Martha Graham was 76 when she felt her life was over, after a lifetime of great success. When she stopped dancing, she lost her will to live, began drinking, and ended up in the hospital for a long time, much of it in a coma. Graham not only survived her hospital stay, but thrived. In 1972, she quit drinking, returned to her studio, reorganized her company, and went on to choreograph 10 new ballets and many revivals. Graham choreographed until her death in New York City from pneumonia in 1991, at age 96. Also in this one-hour show is Louise Hay's story. She started her life in her 50s after making a decision to stop being a victim and begin sharing her light with others. Now is a great time to connect with the light you are and start doing the things you really love to do.    For more information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit teachersofgod.org.

Want your kids and teenagers to calm down, feel happy, and be at peace? Would you love your child to be more focused and joyful? If the answer is "yes," join Lisa Natoli in this inspiring talk with Dr. Roxanne Daleo, founder of MindWorks for Children, and a renowned clinician, leader, and pioneer in health psychology. Roxanne uses spiritual principles—including A Course in Miracles—to help stressed, anxious children calm down and reduce their anxiety, do better in school, and be happier. Dr. Roxie will describe her simple methods that allow children to access their own internal source of strength, love, creativity, and innate gifts. She teaches children to meditate, relax, and take care of themselves through audio programs and guided imagery. She also guides parents with four energy portals as a way to connect and communicate in a way that creates a bond: The Send Off, Welcome Back, Dinnertime, and Getting to Sleep at Night. Dr. Roxanne also gives three steps to be more mindful and aware. Her work, which combines evidence-based mind-body techniques with expressive arts, has been recognized as one of the most powerful methods for awakening natural healing within.    For information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit teachersofgod.org.    

Happiness is an inside job and has nothing to do with outside circumstances. True happiness comes from knowing your true nature as Love. It is different than false happiness, which is what most people do: a "Ra-ra!" cheerleader happiness, pretending to be happy, and "putting on a happy face" when really you feel sad, afraid, judgmental, or angry. Join Lisa Natoli as she talks with Maria Felipe (teacher of A Course in Miracles and ordained minister) about Maria's new book, Live Your Happy: Get out of Your Own Way and Find the Love Within. They will discuss overcoming fear and insecurity, being willing to look at guilt, and remove it with forgiveness. Lisa and Maria will also talk about facing your "Big Deals" and a seven-day fearless practice you can use. To learn more about Maria Felipe and upcoming events, visit her website at mariafelipe.org.   For information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit teachersofgod.org.    

True success is joy, enthusiasm, passion, love for what you are doing, and giving it your all. Success is an attitude, the power of God and having your heart in something 100 percent. No one can take true power and joy away from you. True happiness comes from within. Listen in as Lisa Natoli, teacher of A Course in Miracles, shares her personal experience of connecting to enthusiasm, excitement, and joy. She talks about the importance of standing in the discomfort and unknowing of life's unexpected curveballs, and watching the mind's thoughts, feelings, and emotions without trying to change the external picture. Lisa describes true success as combined in two parts that are one part of the whole: How do you feel? How do you make others feel? When you feel excited, alive, and grateful, and you are making other people feel excited, alive, and grateful ... that's true success.    For more information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit teachersofgod.org.  

Based on the popularity of Lisa Natoli's recent show on David Hawkins' book Healing and Recovery, she's back with more! Join Lisa as she reads from Chapter 4, titled "Health," and talks about her own experimentation with healing autoimmune diseases through canceling and deleting the guilt thought, noticing the false belief "sugar makes me sick," recognizing patterns, and program. Then remembering the truth, "I am an innocent being. I am not subject to that thought." David Hawkins' healing from 20 chronic illnesses came from his dedication to practice and apply the workbook lessons of A Course in Miracles. The approaches in David Hawkins' book discussed in this episode are radical and should not be undertaken until you have read his book completely and made a decision to take 100 percent responsibility for your actions and the outcome. David Hawkins and Lisa Natoli do not dispense medical advice or prescribe the use of any technique as a form of treatment for physical, emotional, or medical problems without the advice of a physician. The intent of this information is to help you in your quest for emotional and spiritual well-being.    For more information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit teachersofgod.org.    

Are you ready for enlightenment? Are you ready to make a decision for your life to change? Are you willing to see yourself and the world differently? "Gorgeous for God" is Lisa Natoli's story of spiritual awakening, a personal account of her journey to enlightenment. It is a very ordinary story. Things happened slowly—there were no bells or whistles. No going into the light. No near-death experience. No angels. No chants, affirmations, or complicated formulas. It was a decision to undergo the mind-training of A Course in Miracles and do exactly as it instructed, to dedicate one year to practicing all 365 workbook lessons. This show is the kickoff party to a free one-month book study of Gorgeous for God in May 2017. In this one-hour show, Lisa reads from the preface and introduction and talks about the necessity for trust and stillness in a spiritual path.    For more information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit teachersofgod.org.

If you are struggling with stress, disease, sickness, anxiety, fear, pain, suffering, depression, alcoholism, addiction, obesity, self-hatred, guilt, cancer, tumors, or migraines, this show is for you! Join Max Just and Lisa Natoli as they discuss David Hawkins' book Healing and Recovery, the eighth book in a progressive series based on the revelations of consciousness research. It comes from a group of lectures given by the author at the request of the original publisher of A Course in Miracles, the Foundation for Inner Peace. Learn practical, simple methods for healing anything—without resorting to drugs, surgery, or counseling. You will learn why the body may not respond to traditional medical approaches. In this book are specific instructions and guidelines that can result in complete healing from any disease. Also, in this episode we'll mention Joe Dispenza's healing of a crushed spine and how he went from paralyzed to totally healed and walking in just a few weeks. For more information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit teachersofgod.org.

Join spiritual teacher and healer Lisa Natoli as she discusses and reads from the new version (CE) of A Course in Miracles on the topics of Easter, Palm Sunday, Good Friday, Crucifixion, and Resurrection. What do the events from 2,000 years ago have to do with you? Everything! Jesus has led the way in his demonstration of total surrender and acceptance of truth of his Identity as One with God. This is your Easter time. Give yourself the gift of taking the nails out of your own hands and the crown of thorns off yourself and off others. Offer everyone and yourself the gift of lilies and forgiveness, starting now.    For more information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit teachersofgod.org.   

No matter what your experience is in any moment, there is always light available to you. There is always peace and joy no matter how dark your situation seems to be. It's only a matter of uncovering your eyes. Join us in this one-hour discussion with Max and Lisa as they talk about "the availability of light" and how to access it. Healing is not mystery, it is simple. A Course in Miracles says: "When God said, 'Let there be light,' there was light. Can you find light by analyzing darkness, as the psychotherapist does, or like the theologian, by acknowledging darkness in yourself and looking for a distant light to remove it, while emphasizing the distance?" Also during the program, Max gives an inspired reading from Shakespeare with a beautiful explanation of unconditional love.    For more information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit teachersofgod.org.

Tune in as Lisa Natoli talks about her new commitment (on March 22) to complete the Circle of Atonement's version of A Course in Miracles from start to finish. Lisa describes how "major chunks" of her thought system (which showed up as addiction, no money, depression, sadness, and feeling sorry for herself) fell away one by one throughout the years. As you set an intention for more structure in your life to listening to Jesus and God's Voice, you will see miracles. If you are ready to dedicate your life to healing and love, and to knowing who you really are as limitless, eternal, and free, then doing A Course in Miracles from start to finish is a fast-track. If you would like to do this yourself, join Lisa for this show and for this great undertaking to read, practice, and apply every single word and lesson.    For more information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit teachersofgod.org.

Live with more grace. Are you seeking to live and lead with more holistic presence and joy? Are you ready to be more influential? Have you wondered how you can bring your spiritual life into the workplace? Join Lisa Natoli for this inspired, one-hour interview with Emily Bennington, best-selling author of several books including the newly released Miracles at Work: Turning Inner Guidance Into Outer Influence. Emily talks about the importance of "standing up for the alternative" as an ambassador of love in all that you do. Who you are matters. How you show up matters. Emily is a teacher of A Course in Miracles and has led mindfulness leadership training programs to Fortune 500 companies.

How do successful people think? Success is an attitude and mind-set. Success is knowing who you are and knowing who walks with you. When you know who you are and you know who walks with you, you have everything! All problems and sickness disappear. How did Jesus heal the sick and multiply the fishes and loaves of bread? He knew who he was and he knew who walked with him. He was listening to God's voice, trusting in inner guidance, making no decisions by himself. He was joined in God's will—and when you line up your will with God's will, miracles occur. In today's episode, Lisa Natoli gives two simple (but radical!) procedures to use every morning—every day!—from A Course in Miracles to have a happy day.    For more information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit: teachersofgod.org

What is addiction? How do you break the shame cycle? How do you recover? What does gratitude have to do with it? Come join Paul Gaudreau, who is 36 years' sober and almost a lifetime of living the ideas A Course in Miracles, in this show as he describes his definition of addiction as self-imaging, being self-contained, self-seeking, and self-defense. Recovery occurs in service, gratitude, and looking at your thought system. Addiction is an idea of yourself separate from God, stuck in an illusion of your own making, acting out in shame, guilt, blame, and fear. Many people are addicted to the word addicted—addicted to being a recovered alcoholic, addicted to figuring it out, addicted to relying on themselves instead of relying on God. Paul describes how he had to "buckle up and trust" and take an honest look at what was going on around him. He had to look at the shame cycle, how he had acted out, and how he was willing to go to his darkest spots and be willing to see what was there. Are you tired of being angry, sick, and tired? Are you willing to see things differently? Listen in. This interview with Paul contains many brilliant actions you can take in your own life to see change and get out of your own self-containment.

Within you is a light that will heal every aspect of your life. It knows exactly what to do, and will do its mighty healing work when you cooperate with this Intelligence and work with it by removing the blocks of fear in your conscious mind. You do not need to search to find what is buried in you as childhood hurts or old patterning from the past. All that needs to be healed is available to you to see in your conscious mind today. When you have a willingness to pay attention to what is going on in your conscious awareness by noticing your thoughts, feelings, and words, you can change your life. Come join minister and teacher of A Course in Miracles Lisa Natoli as she gives a fresh and insightful perspective on healing in practical, simple, direct terms that you can begin to use and apply today. When you stop the internal battle within and allow the "two (thoughts) to become one," everything you ask on earth is given to you by our Father, which is in heaven.    For more information on A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit teachersofgod.org. 

What are you parking spots for the ego to hide in your life? Do you know? Are you ready to find out what you are afraid of, and do something about it? Come do the work, discover Who You Are, and join this inspiring interview with Katja Maria Strandgaard, one of Lisa Natoli's teachers who she turns to for guidance. Katja is a healer, therapist, and teacher of A Course in Miracles who receives messages from Mary Magdalene. In this talk, Katja says one of the ways you can notice if you are hiding is if you are blaming someone. Blame is one of the ways the ego hides, hoping you will never notice and never look at your own unconscious fear. Come figure out how you are attacking yourself. How do you keep yourself small and limited? Do you speak up when you are afraid and correct it in your own mind, or do you hide behind a spiritual idea such as "I'm not a body" and "I need do nothing"? Once you know the ways you hide, you can do something about it. You can confront the fear, allowing the light of God to shine it away.    For more information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit teachersofgod.org.

There is a new Course in Miracles book in town and it's a masterpiece! Come join Lisa Natoli as she talks with Robert Perry, internationally well-known author, lecturer and teacher. He is also the editor of the New and Complete Annotated Edition of A Course in Miracles based on the original handwritten notes of Helen Schucman. Robert Perry, founder of the Circle of Atonement has spent the past 10 years working with a dedicated group of individuals to carefully restore A Course in Miracles to a version that is as close to the original as one can possibly get. As many people know, there has been extensive editing over the 50 years since ACIM first appeared on the scene in the early 1970's and over 45,000 words were left out, mostly from the first seven chapters of the Text, and the wording of the first four chapters had been edited to the point where only about a fifth of the sentences has retained their original wording. In this one-hour talk, Lisa tells the story of how she was initially turned off by this new edition, having already read every version every published of A Course in Miracles including all the original manuscripts. She describes how she couldn't possibly believe this version was different, and she didn't even want to read it. Her husband Bill Free was the one who finally got her to read it, to at least look at it, and how once began to look at it, she found it to be extremely different in the best way possible from other versions. The way the material in this new version is presented makes it easy to read and understand, and apply to situations in your  life. Here is a life-changing message from Jesus giving a clear, direct practical and simple approach (with specific detailed instructions!) about how to ask for guidance, how to hear God's Voice and how to give miracles to experience miracles. It also includes 33 essays (called Cameos) which are original message from Jesus to Helen Schucman and Bill Thetford with clear commentary from Robert Perry, which Lisa Natoli believes will be helpful to many in their own practice of having a direct relationship with their own inner Teacher. If you have felt that A Course in Miracles is "difficult to understand" and "doesn't make any sense" (which are often heard statements), then get ready to be inspired by tuning into this one-hour talk and then head over to Amazon or to the Circle of Atonement to order a copy of this brilliant and beautiful new version of Course in Miracles. 

Judy Morton is back! Listen to this dialogue in which Judy describes the way she stays inspired on a daily basis, using the practices from A Course in Miracles. Judy shares how her life has changed through doing the workbook lessons along with Lisa Natoli's online audio program ACIM 365. Judy says it's a great way to "wake up" every morning—doing things differently and seeing things differently woke her up! If you are ready to wake up to all the gifts of God that surround you, tune in and experience the miraculous. Judy Morton is an inspiring spiritual teacher. Her message is: "You are an amazing light in this world, and I'm here to remind you of that whenever you forget."    For more information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit teachersofgod.org. 

If you feel disturbed by recent events with Donald Trump becoming president of the United States of America, tune in! Max Just and Lisa Natoli discuss their "point of viewing" of what they see and hear. Learn how to see with perfect perception. Also, Max talks about the importance of "admitting your inauthenticity about your authenticity." Many people say they want peace but cannot find peace, and wonder why. The first step is to be honest and admit that you don't really want it. Don't try to find peace. Don't try to make it happen. Simply come to a place of authenticity and see what is really going on in your mind. A Course in Miracles states: "When you have seen your brother as yourself you will be released to knowledge, having learned to free yourself through Him Who knows of freedom."    For more about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit teachersofgod.org.

Are you seeking relief from the bondage of negation? This show is lovingly for you. Join Lisa Natoli as she reads from and discusses the 1931 book In the Hands of the Father by Evelyn Whittel, published by Unity School of Christianity. Lisa received this book anonymously from an angel in the mail (the sender is still unknown to her), and she feels moved and inspired to share the stories contained within with as many people as possible. Evelyn Whitell was an English mystic, writer, and philosopher from London, born about 1880, and who resided in Kansas City as a journalist and teacher around 1910–1912. By 1916 she had moved to the San Francisco area and had become a writer. She traveled to Hawaii several times in the 1920s and was also a traveling speaker in the 1920s and 1930s. An internet search shows she had published four books.    To find out more about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit teachersofgod.org.    

Are you enlightened? How do you know? How can you tell if you (or someone else) is enlightened? Come be enlightened! Join Max and Lisa for this talk about what enlightenment looks like, what it feels like. A Course in Miracles tells us: "Enlightenment is but a recognition, not a change at all." The peace of God is shining in you now. Those who seek the light are merely covering their eyes. Max and Lisa will also talk about addiction, how old and unwanted behaviors fall away easily with no effort. Finally, and most important: They discuss their love of the Green Bay Packers and their admiration for Aaron Rodgers.    For more information about A Course in Miracles and the Teachers of God Foundation, please visit teachersofgod.org.
