Nancy Rynes, author of Awakenings from the Light, Walking in the Light, and Messages from Heaven, joins Dr. Tara Perry to share what happened when a distracted driver ran her over on a Colorado bike path, dragged her 50 feet, and left her with over 100 bone fractures — and what she experienced on the other side. A former scientist and committed atheist, Nancy returned from her near-death experience with a radically transformed understanding of consciousness, the soul, and what she now calls "home."In this episode, Nancy walks through her life review, her spirit guide's beyond-telepathic communication, why she refuses to call it the "afterlife," and the daily practices that keep her connected to source energy a decade after her recovery.KEY TAKEAWAYS00:10 Consciousness can split during trauma — Nancy experienced the accident from two simultaneous vantage points.16:33 A mysterious trauma nurse held Nancy down at the scene, almost certainly preventing her death from a broken neck.27:00 During her NDE, Nancy began remembering that Earth is the simulation, not home.31:42 The life review was the most transformative part — she experienced every event from the perspective of everyone involved.34:06 Thoughts carry energy that extends beyond the skull and affect the people and situations around you.37:11 Communication in the NDE was beyond telepathic — feelings, history, and meaning transmitted in an instant.41:10 We plan our lives at a high level before arriving, including a pre-agreed willingness to experience difficulty.45:11 Nancy's father appeared at the foot of her bed at the exact moment of his death, 250 miles away.54:55 Nancy's bones healed in four weeks despite over 100 fractures — her doctors were stunned.58:07 The heart is the direct channel to source, and 15 minutes of genuine gratitude or love can shift your entire state.If you're ready to take your healing to the next level, schedule your free consultation with Dr. Tara at: https://ConsultTara.com/book

Urban fantasy tales are built around magic being real, whether hidden behind a veil or out in the open, but where did it come from? Has it always been there? Was there an event or a catalyst? Maybe a god or a figure from history (recent or ancient) who unlocked the magic of the world.Arcane Awakenings is about the emergence of magic, about the start of the supernatural story, the blindfolds dropping from the eyes of those with the talent or skill to see it. It might be the story of how magic came to a city, or maybe the origin story of a new urban fantasy heroine. We seek to share the sense of wonder, terror, or pure chaotic confusion across cities where characters are experiencing magic for the first time.

For generations, Americans have been taught that foods labeled “enriched” and “fortified” are healthier options because vitamins and minerals have been added to the food. Yet few people stop to ask what those added nutrients are, how they are manufactured, or how they interact with the body. Thomas Levy, MD, JD, has spent decades researching nutrition, oxidative stress, cardiovascular health, and the impact of synthetic compounds on human physiology. In fact, many years ago Dr. Levy created a video about Iron in Cereals. Recently, Dr. Levy met with the 26th United States Secretary of Health and Human Services, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., to discuss concerns about enriched and fortified foods and the need for greater awareness surrounding what is being added to the modern food supply. Dr. Levy will share the science behind enrichment and fortification, the potential unintended consequences of synthetic additives, and why returning to nutrient-dense whole foods may be one of the most important steps we can take toward protecting our health.

Many of us spend years believing we are not enough. We focus on our mistakes, replay our failures, and hold ourselves to standards we would never impose on those we love or even on strangers. Yet God does not define us by our worst moments, our shortcomings, or the labels we have accepted along the way. His love is patient, compassionate, forgiving, and unconditional. When we begin to see ourselves through God’s eyes, we can release self-judgment and embrace the truth of who we were created to be.

Do you have to be religious to live a good life? In this thoughtful and wide-ranging conversation, Shannon McAdam and Jack Hindle explore what it really means to be a "good person" through the lenses of honesty, self-reflection, compassion, grace, and community. Together they wrestle with questions about spirituality, accountability, human nature, and the challenge of choosing what is right over what is comfortable. Along the way, they discover that a good life may be less about having all the answers and more about continually learning how to see ourselves and others with greater empathy and hope. Listen to other episodes in the Brewed Awakenings series. Download the transcript. Thanks for listening to Faith Unfiltered!Follow us on Facebook and Instagram!Intro and Outro music used with permission: “For Everyone Born,” Community of Christ Sings #285.

So many of us spend years frustrated with our minds. We criticize ourselves for being distracted, anxious, overwhelmed, forgetful, or emotionally reactive. Over time, it may cost us relationships and/or career opportunities. We may begin to see the brain as the problem instead of recognizing that it is constantly adapting and responding to the stress, experiences, and patterns we live with every day. John Silva, DC's goal is to encourage us to see the brain through a more compassionate and holistic lens. This may help us shift from self-judgment to self-awareness.

The Practice of Unconditional Trust

Many of us say we trust God. Yet when life becomes uncertain, we often find ourselves bargaining and grasping for control, telling God what to do and how to do it. We want reassurance and guarantees that everything will work out exactly as we hope. And when things do not go our way, we may pout, grow angry with God, or even feel abandoned. I talk often about unconditional love, but what about unconditional trust? The practice of unconditional trust invites us to remain open, grounded, and faithful, even when we cannot see the full picture. I have learned that trust is not about pretending life will always be easy. It is about believing that even our challenges can lead us toward growth, wisdom, deeper peace, and ultimately, to God's perfect plan. I will share how practicing unconditional trust can help us move beyond fear and into a life guided by faith, surrender, and the inner calm that comes from knowing everything will ultimately be alright.

Story Transcript:Nl: Op een zonnige lentedag in mei, toen de zon stralend aan de hemel stond en de lucht gevuld was met de zoete geur van bloemen, besloten Hanna en Lars de Keukenhof tuinen te bezoeken.En: On a sunny spring day in May, when the sun was shining brightly in the sky and the air was filled with the sweet scent of flowers, Hanna and Lars decided to visit the Keukenhof gardens.Nl: Het was Hemelvaartsdag, en de tuinen waren vol met mensen die net als zij wilden genieten van de kleurrijke pracht van de tulpen.En: It was Ascension Day, and the gardens were full of people who, like them, wanted to enjoy the colorful splendor of the tulips.Nl: Hanna, een jonge kunstenares, voelde zich altijd geïnspireerd door de natuur.En: Hanna, a young artist, always felt inspired by nature.Nl: Ze hoopte dat dit bezoek haar creatieve geest zou hervullen.En: She hoped that this visit would recharge her creative spirit.Nl: Lars, haar trouwe vriend, was enthousiast om met haar mee te gaan.En: Lars, her loyal friend, was excited to join her.Nl: Hoewel Hanna het niet wist, koesterde Lars een stille liefde voor haar.En: Although Hanna didn't know it, Lars harbored a quiet love for her.Nl: De tulpen strekte zich als een regenboog over het landschap.En: The tulips stretched like a rainbow across the landscape.Nl: De kleuren dansten voor hun ogen, en Hanna's vingers tintelden om haar schetsboek te pakken.En: The colors danced before their eyes, and Hanna's fingers tingled to grab her sketchbook.Nl: Ze en Lars dwaalden langs de bloemen, hun zintuigen volledig opgeslokt door de natuurpracht.En: She and Lars wandered along the flowers, their senses completely absorbed by the beauty of nature.Nl: Plotseling begon Hanna te niezen.En: Suddenly, Hanna started sneezing.Nl: Al snel veranderde het niezen in hoesten.En: Soon the sneezing turned into coughing.Nl: Haar ogen waren tranerig, en ze kreeg het benauwd.En: Her eyes were watery, and she was having trouble breathing.Nl: "Lars," piepte ze, terwijl ze probeerde adem te halen.En: "Lars," she squeaked, as she struggled to breathe.Nl: "Ik.En: "I...Nl: ik kan niet goed ademen.En: I can't breathe well."Nl: "Lars voelde paniek opkomen, maar hij hield zijn kalmte.En: Lars felt panic rising, but he kept his calm.Nl: Hij moest een oplossing vinden.En: He had to find a solution.Nl: De tuinen waren groot, maar hij herinnerde zich iets.En: The gardens were large, but he remembered something.Nl: Er moest een EHBO-post in de buurt zijn.En: There had to be a first aid post nearby.Nl: Hij greep Hanna's hand en leidde haar snel door de mensenmassa.En: He grabbed Hanna's hand and quickly led her through the crowd.Nl: Zijn hart bonkte terwijl ze slalomden door de bloementuinen.En: His heart pounded as they zigzagged through the flower gardens.Nl: Na wat een eeuwigheid leek, zagen ze eindelijk de witte tent die ze zochten.En: After what seemed like an eternity, they finally saw the white tent they were looking for.Nl: Bij de medische post kregen ze snelle hulp.En: At the medical post, they received quick help.Nl: De verpleegkundige gaf Hanna een inhalator en rustig begon haar ademhaling weer normaal te worden.En: The nurse gave Hanna an inhaler, and gradually her breathing returned to normal.Nl: Toen Hanna voldoende hersteld was, leidde Lars haar naar een rustig hoekje van de tuin.En: Once Hanna had sufficiently recovered, Lars led her to a quiet corner of the garden.Nl: Daar vonden ze een bankje onder de schaduw van een oude boom.En: There, they found a bench under the shade of an old tree.Nl: Terwijl ze daar zaten, haalde Hanna haar schetsboek tevoorschijn.En: While sitting there, Hanna took out her sketchbook.Nl: Haar handen waren nog onrustig, maar vastberaden begon ze de bloemen om hen heen te tekenen, met Lars die naast haar zat, zijn hart vol opluchting en iets nieuws — hoop.En: Her hands were still restless, but determined, she began to draw the flowers around them, with Lars beside her, his heart full of relief and something new — hope.Nl: Hanna keek op van haar schetsen en zag de zorg in zijn ogen.En: Hanna looked up from her sketches and saw the concern in his eyes.Nl: "Dank je, Lars," zei ze zacht.En: "Thank you, Lars," she said softly.Nl: "Je bent er altijd voor me.En: "You are always there for me."Nl: "Lars glimlachte, vervuld van een blijde verwachting.En: Lars smiled, filled with joyful anticipation.Nl: Misschien, alleen misschien, zou deze dag niet alleen het begin van nieuwe inspiratie voor Hanna zijn, maar ook het begin van iets anders moois tussen hen.En: Maybe, just maybe, this day would not only be the start of new inspiration for Hanna but also the start of something else beautiful between them.Nl: En zo, in die bloeiende tuin, vonden Hanna en Lars nieuwe hoop.En: And so, in that blooming garden, Hanna and Lars found new hope.Nl: De lucht was helder, de bloemen stonden in volle bloei, en de vriendschap die altijd tussen hen was geweest, begon te groeien naar iets meer.En: The sky was clear, the flowers were in full bloom, and the friendship that had always existed between them began to grow into something more.

It's like trying to solve a puzzle without all the pieces or the box cover. But what if clarity isn't something we have to chase but something we can gently uncover? When we begin to understand the signals our brain is sending, we move from fear to awareness, from confusion to empowerment.

There are moments in life when we say “YES” to something without fully knowing how far it will reach. Fifteen years ago, I said yes to doing a 1-hour weekly radio show. The theme I chose was all about “being a friend.” What I visualized at the time was being a friend to each other, while sharing the latest in pharmaceuticals and more. The first live show, coincidentally, was on my birthday. Being a friend and creating a space where learning, healing, and truth come together are still my main focus. I never imagined that “YES” would become The Classroom. Along the way, there have been lessons, challenges, breakthroughs, and countless reminders that when we choose to grow, we also give others permission to do the same. This journey has never been about perfection, but about showing up, staying curious, and choosing love and forgiveness over fear again and again. I will not only share what these 15 years of living with purpose have taught me, I will give away a bunch of gifts. So, you may want to listen in to win a special prize!

Neurodegenerative conditions often develop over time. They are influenced by a combination of lifestyle, environmental, and biological factors. World-renowned integrative physician Lee Cowden, MD, guided us toward better health during the M3 Detox Experience, showing us the impact of mold, metals, and microbes toxicity on the body. Dr. Cowden is back to update us on how supporting the body holistically may help address underlying imbalances that affect brain health. By exploring approaches that focus on reducing inflammation, supporting detoxification pathways, and nourishing the nervous system, we can begin to see new possibilities for improving cognitive function and overall well-being.

Thirty-five years ago, Steven Spielberg released his updated take on the classic children's story Peter Pan by J. M. Barrie. Arriving in theaters in 1991 with enormous expectations, the film was toplined by four actors at the height of their fame: Robin Williams stars as an aged-up Peter, fresh off Dead Poets Society and Awakenings - and just a year away from Aladdin and Mrs. Doubtfire; Dustin Hoffman, riding high after his Oscar win for Rain Man, as the titular Captain Hook; Julia Roberts, newly-minted as America's sweetheart after Pretty Woman, donning the wings as Tinkerbell; and Bob Hoskins as Mister Smee, following up his breakout blockbuster Who Framed Roger Rabbit. With a prime Christmas release date and a sweeping John Williams score, the film looked destined to become an instant Spielberg swashbuckling classic. Instead, a famously troubled production - marked by massive (and expensive) sets, shooting that ran 40 days over schedule, and a strained relationship between director Spielberg and ingénue Roberts - resulted in a film that critics were quick to call indulgent and uneven. Spielberg himself later admitted frustration with the project, and despite solid box‑office returns, the film was seen as a disappointment during a peak period of Spielberg's career. And yet the pixie dust of nostalgia has quietly rewritten the narrative: the film has become something of a cult favorite, embraced by fans who grew up with VHS rewatches. Now we're dropping anchor in Pirates Bay to see if Hook conjures up any happy thoughts, or if it is better off getting lost, boy!   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com    You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

Political Awakenings and the Universal Silent HeroDuring a 1931 world tour, Chaplin was appalled by the hopelessness of the global depression, which inspired the social commentary in Modern Times. This period marked the beginning of his troubles with the FBI, who surveilled him despite his conservative financial habits and immense wealth. Chaplin famously resisted the transition to sound to protect the Tramp's universality, fearing an English accent would limit the character's global appeal. He finally spoke on screen in The Great Dictator, playing both a Jewish barber and a parody of Hitler, whose mustache Chaplin believed may have been an imitation of his own famous screen persona.

Comparing Ourselves to Others

It's so easy to look around and measure our lives against what we see in others, their success, their happiness, their progress. Then we quietly wonder why we're not there yet. But comparisons often pull us away from our own story and into a narrative that was never meant for us. When we pause and turn inward, we begin to see that our path, with all its twists and turns, holds meaning that cannot be replicated or replaced. True peace comes not from keeping up, but from showing up as we are, fully and authentically. I will share what will shift in our lives if we stop comparing and start embracing our own journey?

Hormones influence nearly every aspect of how we feel, from energy levels and mood to metabolism and overall well-being. World-renowned New York Times bestselling author, professor, researcher, activist, and musician, Neal Barnard, MD, of Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, has spent decades studying how nutrition and lifestyle choices can support the body's natural hormonal balance. It's important to understand how food, stress, and daily habits interact with the endocrine system. When we do, we can begin to see that many hormone-related struggles may be more responsive to change in those areas than we once believed. Dr. Barnard will share how the body naturally regulates hormones and empowers us to make choices that support balance, vitality, and long-term health.

There are seasons in life when we find ourselves moving through the days on autopilot, checking the boxes, meeting expectations, and yet feeling a quiet longing for something more. Not more things, but more meaning, more alignment, more action, more truth. Creating a vision for your life isn't about control or perfection; it's about pausing long enough to listen within and asking yourself, “How do I accomplish my more?” I will share how when we give ourselves permission to dream with intention, we will act with clarity. It is time to feel like we are consciously creating our life. What would change if you allowed yourself to envision a life that truly reflects your heart?

She takes a step back to reconnect with why she started the podcast while getting honest about how it all began to feel like too much. All from rigid guest scheduling to saying yes too often and losing alignment through the process.

In late 1916, while treating a group of patients at his psychiatric clinic at the University of Vienna, Dr. Constantin von Economo began noticing the appearance of strange symptoms that he could not account for. At the same time, in France, Rene Cruchet began noticing similarly strange and unexpected symptoms in his patients. Though the two men had never met and knew nothing of one another's patients, they would come to learn they were both witnessing the emergence of a new mysterious disease that would soon affect millions of people around the world.The illnesses documented by von Economo and Cruchet would eventually come to be know as encephalitis lethargica, or sleeping sickness, a strange condition that caused profound lethargy, hypersomnia, and a wide range of other frightening symptoms. Between 1919 and the early 1930s, millions of people all around the world contracted the illness, with nearly half of all cases resulting in death, and many more suffering long-term effects; yet a cause of the illness has never been established and the terrifying epidemic appears to have faded from memory not long after the disease itself ostensibly disappeared. ReferencesBrook, Harry Ellington. 1921.
