Dr. Cristine Hull is an integrative mental health practitioner, author, and developer of the Zero Point Meridian technique. With a Master's in Psychology and a Ph.D. in Natural Medicine, she brings over two decades of experience as a substance abuse counselor, school psychologist, and private practitioner. Drawing from her own journey through depression, anxiety, addiction, and a profound spiritual awakening, Cristine works at the intersection of brain chemistry, energy medicine, and the quantum field. She is the creator of the Four Bodies model and trains practitioners in tools that address the physical, vital, mental, and quantum levels of healing. Based in northern Utah, she continues to teach, write, and guide people toward deeper wholeness through her work at Health, Healing & Wholeness.In this episode, Cristine and I cover a wide-ranging conversation that moves from brain chemistry and addiction into spiritual awakening, energy medicine, and what real healing actually requires.Cristine shares her personal journey through severe depression, anxiety, and substance use, and how those experiences led her into decades of work as a counselor and integrative practitioner. She introduces her Four Bodies model (physical, vital, mental, and quantum) and explains why most lasting change has to address more than just the physical level. The conversation explores sugar as part of the narcotic continuum, the difference between dopamine and endorphin addiction, the spiral of recovery she developed while teaching in a jail, and the powerful spiritual experience she had on Yom Kippur that shifted everything. We also dig into entities and generational energy, the development of her Zero Point Meridian technique, the “neutral game” for quieting the mental body, and why conventional mental health often falls short with personality disorders and chronic pain. Cristine closes by pointing back to the deeper truth underneath the endorphin chase: capital-L Love.Timestamps0:00 – Elevator pitch / “junkyard love” framing and four bodies intro1:30 – Four Bodies for Medicines ebook and physical vs. vital/mental/quantum3:00 – Wind analogy for spirit/effects on the physical body4:30 – Personal history: chemical imbalance, depression, anxiety, substances6:30 – First career in substance-abuse counseling; self-medication insight8:00 – Serotonin, carbs, Potatoes Not Prozac, wheat sensitivity discovery9:30 – Endorphins as “inner orphan” / morphine parallel; sugar as narcotic continuum11:00 – Dopamine vs. endorphins; cocaine, bipolar diagnosis, mastering the middle path13:00 – Love addiction, romantic craving, spiral model (abstinence → moderation → attainment)15:00 – Jail curriculum development; 20 years clean vs. relationship patterns still unresolved16:30 – Yom Kippur night/boyfriend breakup; Day of Atonement context18:00 – Light shaft experience through the crown/spine; “whole and complete through divine connection”19:30 – Kundalini as vital-body tool (chakras, meridians, aura)21:00 – Growing up Christian, leaving religion, seeking freedom from guilt and pain22:30 – Cocaine phase; friend returning from overdose funeral; entity/attachment theory24:30 – “Perverse energy” (Quantum University language); generational clearing26:00 – First Kundalini session clearing grandfather's heavy emotion27:30 – EFT training (2002–2003, Gary Craig); shift to private practice29:00 – Zero Point Meridian (ZPM) development; claimed superiority data vs. EMDR31:00 – Mental body chaos of positive/negative thinking; neutrality / “neutral game”34:00 – Yoga entry via client accountability + Baron Baptiste Journey into Power36:00 – Gap between stimulus and response; mind-body necessity of yoga37:30 – TM interest; Vipassana documentary (Doing Time, Doing Vipassana)39:00 – Mahasati movement meditation; fear that stillness = non-existence / black hole41:00 – Moving through zero; zero-point field → unified field; John Hagelin / Frank Kinslow52:00 – Limits of conventional mental health on personality disorders (narcissism, borderline, ego structures)54:00 – Spiritual/quantum solution as transformative where pills and talk therapy fall short56:00 – Quantum Solutions Masterclass / ego-structure component57:30 – Chronic pain and the pain body (Eckhart Tolle); noticing pain-free body parts as anchors59:00 – Endorphins at quantum level = capital-L Love; closing gratitudeKEYWORDS:Four bodies model, Zero Point Meridian, ZPM technique, quantum body, vital body, endorphin continuum, sugar addiction recovery, love addiction spiral, attainment model, perverse energy, generational clearing, Yom Kippur awakening, Kundalini vital body, neutral game mindfulness, Quantum Wholeness Meditation, Love Solve Method, Frequency Formulas, personality disorder spiritual solution, pain body Eckhart Tolle, brain chemistry natural balance, EFT to ZPM evolution, Cache Valley healer, integrative mental health Utah.Checkout more Cristine here! :Website: Cristine HullYoutube - Health, Healing, & Wholeness - YouTubeInstagram - Author Cristine Hull (@cristine.author)LinkedIn - Cristine Hull PhD LinkedinFaceBook - Author Cristine Hull • FacebookQuotes from Cristine in the episode:“Love is an answer. It's a solution for sure.”“The wind is actually the spirit. The effects are the physical body.”“Endorphins… stands for inner orphan, which like morphine… highly addictive… sugar.”“The trick was not to try to change it and stay up. The trick was to realize when I was down, there was some work to do…”“Really, all that matters is that you are whole and complete through a divine connection. And you bring your whole self to it.”“I believe the person who overdosed came with her and walked through the door… this entity… attached to me.”“If we try to use the mind to correct the mind, we can get just a lot of chaos… the solution… is neutrality.”“There's not a lot in mental health and psychology to solve personality disorders… the problem is because there's not really a spiritual solution in the mental health field.”“Notice where you're not in pain - tune into even if it's your hair… their hair doesn't hurt, the tip of their nose probably doesn't hurt…”“What people are looking for in the endorphin experience is love.

Members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints work in nearly every profession imaginable. Some, including the two guests on this episode of the Church News podcast are professional athletes. But Kaden Bowler and Bronson Balholm play in a unique league with equally unique rules in a spinoff of America’s pastime — Banana Ball.  Bowler grew up largely in northern Utah’s Cache Valley where he played high school baseball before serving a mission on the other side of the world in Cambodia. Balholm is from Southern California. He played baseball in college, including time at Arizona State University.  For Bowler, moving from the “darkest, loneliest time” of his life, to now being “super grateful for where I am,” was not an easy or predictable process. Balholm likewise had an unpredictable path that led to the two players meeting in Savannah, Georgia, where they attended the same young single adult branch.  “There are going to be ups and downs,” Balholm said. “But the Lord’s always going to be there. You always gotta keep coming up to the next at-bat.”  On this episode of the Church News podcast, Bowler and Balholm join Church News editor Jon Ryan Jensen to describe how playing baseball, serving a mission and studying the scriptures has helped them develop faith in Jesus Christ.

Bigfoot Caves Are A Bad Place to Set Up CampIn the mid-1990s, a Utah State University student, an outdoor enthusiast, discovered a hidden cave in Cache Valley's mountains while hiking. Skeptical of Sasquatch stories despite extensive wilderness experience, he found an artificially excavated chamber behind a boulder, containing signs of past use. After a rattlesnake encounter and a hailstorm, he returned to find the cave sealed by another boulder. Feeling watched, he spotted large footprints and encountered a tall, hairy, humanoid figure who silently gestured for him to leave. Unlike typical Bigfoot descriptions, this intelligent being lacked glowing eyes or a foul smell. The experience made him a believer, though he's unsure if he'll return to the cave.Join my Supporters Club for $4.99 per month for exclusive stories:https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/what-if-it-s-true-podcast--5445587/support
