Podcasts about do you believe

Graeme Smith is joined by writer and Queer I Am podcast host Andrew Flewitt for a deeply personal conversation about queer grief — the kind that isn't always spoken about, but lives quietly inside so many of us.Andrew's new book, Do You Believe in Life After Loss?, explores the grief queer people carry: the loss of lovers, of friends taken too soon — and the quieter griefs too. The ones tied to shame, family estrangement, and the delayed onset of emotional adulthood many LGBTQ+ people experience because the world won't let us.This is a raw, open-hearted episode about making space for grief, telling the truth about loss, and finding meaning on the other side of it.---THIS IS OUTCAST WORLD ---Like and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts and please leave a review.

Wellness + Wisdom | Episode 744 How does astrology reveal your cosmic blueprint? Astrologer Debra Silverman joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 744, to reveal how the patterns of sacred geometry and planetary cycles can act as a shortcut to self-awareness, why astrology was silenced by religion, how the four elements unlock your highest potential, what it really means to be an “old soul,” and why true authenticity blooms when you align with your Sun, Moon, and Rising signs. "You come with an assignment to learn or to do something, and you have to remember it. And that's what astrology's for. You can have a personality type that has problems. You can have a psychology that's really difficult but that's the contract that you signed at the beginning. And the minute you accept what you were handed, it becomes magic." - Debra Silverman Applied Astrology Course Applied Astrology is your gateway to profound self-discovery, unveiling powerful tools that transform how you see yourself through the cosmic lens of unconditional love.

Leave Wellness + Wisdom a Review on Apple Podcasts Power Quotes From The Show Astrology Is About Pattern Recognition "Pattern recognition is what astrology is about. The whole system is based on geometry, and sacred geometry is pattern recognition. There are these repetitive patterns that come on and on and on." - Debra Silverman Relationships Are The Hardest Lesson "The hardest lesson on planet Earth according to astrology is relationships: marriage, partnership, friendships, business partners, and commitments. Can we stay loyal? Can we listen to the other? Can we step over our egos? Can we really care about the other? That's 101 why we're here." - Debra Silverman We're Entering The Golden Age "We're at the very end right now of the Age of Forgetting. And we're just entering the Golden Age. But we're in this very thin threshold between worlds where we're going to be done with this old system. You and your children are heralding in an entirely new way of being. In the meantime, the transition is painful because we're so confused." - Debra Silverman Links From Today's Show  Debra Silverman I Don't Believe in Astrology by Debra Silverman J.P.

Two women, two continents, two stories whispered in the shadows of history. One, a mystic in war-torn Europe, said to channel voices from the stars—secrets that could have changed the fate of nations. The other, a siren of the Amazon, her voice enchanting the elite until rumors of blood and immortality stained her legacy. Maria Orsic, vanished without a trace in 1945. Camille Montfort, buried in 1896—or so they say. But what if the truth isn't that simple? What if the past still echoes with their footsteps, or something darker?

Do You Believe that “He {God} gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life”? MESSAGE SUMMARY:  You have got to believe; but until you get your thinking right, your life will not change – you have got to believe! It is hard for some people, today, to believe in the miraculous birth of Jesus celebrated on Christmas day. Ok, just start where you are in what you believe. Can you believe that you are a sinner? Can you believe that you are not perfect? Can you believe that you have violated God's laws? Despite this life background, can you believe that God loves you just as you now are? Can you believe that God sent His Only Son, Jesus, to save all that believe in Him so that you would not perish but have eternal life? Maybe this is where you start in believing in the miraculous birth of Jesus; you need to start where you are. Jesus' life was defined by His death on the cross and by His resurrection, thereby, living up to the translation of His name, Jesus – “Salvation”. The Apostle John succinctly summarized the purpose of Jesus birth in John3:16-17: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.".   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, fill me with the simple trust that even out of the most awful evil around me, you are able to bring great good — for me, for others, and for your great glory. In Jesus' name, amen.     Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 91). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because I am in Jesus Christ, I will seek God's perspective on my situation. For I know that in all things God works together for good to those of us who love Him and are called according to His purpose. From Romans 8:28 SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): John 1:1-18; Luke 1:27-38; Luke 2:1-22; John 20:27-29; Psalms 69b:13-24. A WORD FROM THE LORD WEBSITE: www.AWFTL.org.

Jest pewien typ osobowości, który jest SUPERtypem!Radzi sobie doskonale w każdych warunkach.Świetnie się komunikuje. Dogaduje się z każdą osobą, bo z każdym potrafi sobie poradzić...Cher właśnie krzyczy "Do You Believe?" A ty pewnie teraz myślisz, że to jakiś bullshit, bujdy na resorach.Daj mi chwilę... Dosłownie chwilę...Wszyscy mamy wady. Wszystkim wywalają korki (albo bezpieczniki). Tak jest, taka jest prawda. Supertyp (typiara) - o którym piszę, to wynik dokładnego poznania siebie – dowiedzenia się „jak działam”, „dlaczego tak działam” i „na jakie paliwo chodzi ta bryka”... Czyli wynik świadomości, co Cię napędza, a co rozładowuje. Wiesz to? Znasz siebie na tyle? Nie spotkałem klienta, który by do mnie przyszedł z taką wiedzą na swój temat :) Także sorry... Gdy znasz siebie, znasz swój typ osobowości, swoje mocne i słabe strony, to wiesz dokładnie gdzie i kiedy pojawia się eustres (pozytywna siła napędowa), a gdzie i kiedy zabija Cię dystres, przez który lądujesz na dnie, czyli w czarnej d…ziurze. W 70 odcinku podcastu Toga bez wroga rozmawiamy – w gruncie rzeczy - o typie idealnym. Przy czym typem idealnym, może być każdy typ, o ile poznał siebie. Również TY

Bob Kinney is a recovered alcoholic after an 18-year battle of severe alcoholism. He is a father of six children and has 12 grandchildren. He is a veteran with a heart for homeless veterans. He is a Christian, retired carpenter, and devoted father and grandpa, residing in New Hope, MN. He is the author of Kill Me or Cure Me, a memoir published in 2024 which relives the story of his addiction and eventual recovery: Kill Me or Cure Me: A Message of True Recovery from Addiction.  This is a true story about addiction, recovery, and the destructive effects on family and loved ones. Treatment after treatment, meeting after meeting, and medications of every kind could not cure the craving or satisfy the emptiness brought on by my addiction. And none of which eased the quilt or shame he felt from the pain he had caused others. So, into the perpetual relapse he went, struggling for sobriety and attempting to conquer the craving, the great force feeding the addiction.  But this story does not end in defeat, a story sadly too common in this world. Rather this is a story to find an answer, to see ourselves for what we are and what we can become, being set free of this nightmare, and the ability to have true recovery and restoration of life. In this interview, Bob shares a story or two of his experience of being at the lowest point of life from alcohol addiction where he lost everything and became homeless - his point of no return. Then, how he turned it around finding recovery and re-establishing relationships with his children and grandchildren. He wants to share how much he appreciates sobriety and life as a father/grandfather thanks to our loving and gracious God. His daughter, Colleen Schaeffel, who wrote her own memoir (Do You Believe in Me) is also present in the interview to talk about her dad: the dad she helped see his way to recovery. In her book Colleen tells the true story of the perfect family torn apart by addiction. She rallied her siblings to stand together through adversity, loss and whatever it took to find hope in their lives and recovery for their father. Her book is a must read for anyone who has lived through family dysfunction and a family member's addiction. Colleen is so blessed to have him back in her life.

In hour 2, Spadoni and Shasky play DO YOU BELIEVE!! With fans and answer the question if they believe the Warriors can go the distance and win the NBA Title once again.

Ask David My friend won't say thank you! Dating Anxiety Religion vs. Psychotherapy We want to remind you about an awesome virtual workshop on habits and addictions that Dr. Jill Levitt and David will be presenting on March 28, 2025 We will feature powerful new paradoxical techniques that will blow your socks off. It will be from 8:30 to 4:30 and you will earn 7 CE credits while having fun and learning how to heal yourself AND you patients. Check it out! It's less than two weeks away, some check it out while you still have time! You'' LOVE it and LEARN a LOT! Registration and More Information Here! As is so often the case, the answers to these questions that appear in the show notes were email replies to the person before the show. To get the full discussion, make sure you listen to the actual podcast, as the answers often evolve in unexpected ways when the “experts” hash it out! Today's episode is chock full of personal stories (some racy), expert Five Secrets advice and demonstration,  philosophical / spiritual discussion, and secrets of successful (and racy) dating. 1. Brittany asks: What can I do say to a friend who does not say “thank you” when I pay for our meal or drive a long distance just to see them? 2. Jaydipe asks: How can I get over my anxiety around attractive women? 3. Ali asks: Can religious beliefs cause or intensify feelings of anxiety? (David will talk about the synergies between TEAM CBT and spirituality in all religions. He will also mention the potential antagonisms.)   1. Brittany asks: What can I do say to a friend who does not say “thank you” when I pay for our meal or drive a long distance just to see them. Hello David and Rhonda, I have a friend who typically does not say thank you to me when I pay for a meal out or drive us a long distance. I am someone who always says thank you even if the other person just bought us $10 worth of fast food or gave a short ride. I find myself feeling resentful towards my friend for not saying anything when I pay and drive us around all day. It makes me feel like they don't appreciate it. At the same time, talking about it and sharing my feelings would then feel like I'm asking them to say it, and then it would not feel authentic. I have said something about it in the past, and they were like I'm sorry, thank you. But it didn't mean much at that point. Is this one of those annoying traits I just learn to accept? Thank you, Brittany David's reply Well, you could just use a gentle I Feel statement, which might be paradoxically stronger, but combined with Stroking. Like this, "Jennie, you know I think the world of you, and greatly enjoy our times together, but when I pay for lunch, or drive a distance to hang out with you, you rarely ever say "thank you," and then I feel hurt and unappreciated." Something like that combines Stroking with I Feel and might be effective. But I always rate myself on what I do, or say, and not so much on how the other person reacts. You could, perhaps, also ask if they are upset with you about something that they've had trouble expressing to you. Best, david 2. Jaydipe asks: How can I get over my anxiety around attractive women? Hi David Many thanks for the podcast I'm struggling with social anxiety and talking to attractive women and I've watched all the podcasts relating to it. I think deep down I have a shame around finding women attractive, so I find it difficult to express interest in them. I find that I can talk to them easily during activities like climbing or co workers, but even on dates with women I can't seem to take things forwards playfully like you'd expect on a date. I'm too serious and I think that turns people off. I feel like I'm under the spotlight and I have to impress them otherwise they won't like me. I know this isn't true and I've been trying to get myself to do exposure therapy by asking girls for their numbers and being rejected so it helps with that. Also, I struggle with societal expectations, I hear women say that they don't want to be approached or talked to or anything so I just end up avoiding them because I don't want to annoy them, but it holds me back from getting the sex and relationships I want Any help much appreciated Thanks, Jaydipe David's Reply I have included your excellent question on an upcoming Ask David. In the meantime, have you read my book on dating, Intimate Connections? Best, david PS Should I use your first name, or a fake first name? 3. Ali asks: Can religious beliefs cause or intensify feelings of anxiety? Dear Dr. Burns, After reading your books, I've started to recognize that many of my anxious beliefs seem to have a religious background. For example, in the Bible, there's a verse from John 5:14: “Later Jesus found him at the temple and said to him, ‘See, you are well again. Stop sinning or something worse may happen to you.'” Here's where I struggle: I want to live my life freely, which includes things like being with different girls before marriage (something I already do). But according to religion, this is considered adultery and a sin. Another verse that weighs heavily on me is from Matthew 5:27-29: “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery.' But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to stumble, gouge it out and throw it away. It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be thrown into hell.” I often find myself looking at beautiful women on the street, which Christianity teaches is sinful, and this sometimes leads to feelings of guilt. I wonder: do I need to leave religion altogether to break free from these negative, self-critical thoughts? I also have other related thoughts that seem to link my faith with the good things happening in my life. For instance: My life is going well right now. My parents are alive, my brother is getting married, I'm healthy, and I've been fortunate in many ways. I've had incredible experiences, like participating in two Erasmus+ exchange programs in Poland and Lithuania during university, volunteering in Latvia for a year, and even having my New Zealand visa approved in a highly competitive process (only 100 spots for 85 million people, and the application closed in 5 minutes!). I often think that these blessings are because I believe in Jesus, follow the Bible, and try to live as a good person who avoids sin and doesn't deceive others. But then these anxious thoughts arise: I should always be thankful or pray, or else my life will fall apart. If I leave religion, something bad might happen—my parents could fall ill or pass away, and it would all feel like my fault for turning away from Jesus. Without faith, I'd lose my good fortune(luck), my appearance, and my opportunities. Wherever I apply to would be rejected, then I would understand that it was Jesus in the first place doing all of these things in my life, not me or vice versa! I'd find a terrible job, terrible working environment, terrible mutual relationships. Then everything would be my fault and I'd tell myself I should have believed in him in the first place but now I deserve everything that happens to me! These thoughts are overwhelming, and I'd love to hear your perspective on how to approach and challenge them. Thank you so much for your time and the invaluable insights you share in your work. Warm regards, Ali David's reply Hi Ali, Sorry you are struggling with so many restrictions, judgments, and inhibitions! I can imagine it triggers anxiety, guilt, inadequacy, resentment, discouragement, and more. You can let me know! If you want, I can include this as an Ask David question on a podcast, with your first name, or a fake first name. Let me know if this works for you. Also, what religion are you? I know that many religions around the world can be very fundamentalistic and super strict in their teachings. My own religious upbringing had a touch of rigidity, too. Best, david Ali's response to David Hello again, Actually, my family comes from the Christian (Orthodox-Armenian) minority in Turkey, where I was born and raised. So, I am an Orthodox Christian. You're absolutely right that I struggle with many restrictions and judgments. I'd love for you to include this as an "Ask David" question on a podcast since I haven't seen any episode (and I've listened to most of your recent podcasts, including number 408: Do You Believe in God? Does God Exist?) that addresses this topic. By the way, I already use an alias, so "Ali" is a fake name, but you're welcome to use it in your podcast! Here's a quick DML (Daily Mood Log) to clarify what I'm dealing with: The Upsetting Event: Doing my daily half-hour Bible reading before bed and coming across certain verses. Emotions: Sad: 60% Anxious/Worried: 70% Inadequate: 60% Guilty/Bad: 90% Abandoned: 70% Pessimistic/Discouraged: 80% Stuck: 75% Angry/Resentful: 75% Tricked/Duped: 80% Although I don't consider myself a devout Christian, over the past few years, I've started reading the Bible—the Old and New Testaments. Initially, I read them in my native language, but now I read in English to fully understand the content. Growing up in the church, I believed everything the priest taught. However, encountering some events and stories that seem illogical to me has made me question my beliefs. I often feel tricked and wonder if I've truly believed in all this. At the same time, I feel anxious and worried, as if questioning or criticizing my religion is a betrayal of God. Please let me know if you need any additional information. Ali David's reply Thanks, Ali, this is super. I was also raised in a somewhat strict Christian (Lutheran) home, and as a child had plans to become a minister, like my dad. In college, I learned critical thinking, and began to question some of what I was taught when I was growing up. For example, there seemed to be a bit of a bias against Jews, and my dad said they had to convert to Christianity to be  ”saved” and, I guess, avoid going to hell after they died. That didn't sound right at all, not loving, as Christ taught, who was himself a Jew, but hostile and judgmental. And I had good friends who were Jewish, so it felt offensive. Same with people who were gay. A strong bias that this was somehow “bad” and sinful, or something like that. Christianity, in the sense of the Catholic church, was really created by people a couple hundred years after Christ died, and they were reflecting their own human biases when they wrote the new testament and translated the old testaments. For better or worse, I am personally not afraid to disagree with much of what is in the Bible, and interpret it, not literally, but as a series of stories trying to communicate important spiritual truths, but these truths get quite distorted when people began focusing on literal truths, rather than “seeing” the message. Literal translations of religion risk missing the spiritual meaning and truth. This is especially true of the orthodox movement within any religion. This tendency toward being literal, rigid, and judgmental may be a partially inherited, genetic trait. Regardless, to me, it is offensive and ugly, and definitely not religious, but quite the opposite. In the early days, lots of religious cults emerged, and they all had their own special leaders. If your leader couldn't walk on water, that guru was considered inferior. So, it was fashionable to say that your spiritual guru could “walk on water.” What does that really mean? To me, it means that this person is pretty special, and much kinder and more loving than most others, and can perhaps convey some spiritual truths to us. But actual walking on water is a magic trick best left to television and stage magicians. This is my thinking only, and I do not wish to impose my thinking and beliefs on you or on anybody! I had tremendous respect and admiration for a Catholic nun, Sister Shela Flynn, who worked at my clinic in Philadelphia because she wanted to learn how to do CBT. She was humble and wonderful, and once shared with me that she also thought the stories in the bible were primarily metaphors, just stories trying to convey this or that idea about love, humility, and so forth. Not literally true stories you “had to” believe to be a “good Christian.” An, in addition, using my philosophy and CBT training, there is really no such “thing” as a “good Christian.” Positive and negative labels can be useful but can also be hurtful and destructive. Will stop babbling, and feel free to reject or ignore some or everything I am saying! But on an emotional level, I feel hurt, and angry about the literal “rules-based” versions of religion. Because I see, all over the world, atrocities being committed to a massive degree in the name of this or that “religion.” I am most comfortable with Buddhism, but even then, many people take it literally, make up rules, and so forth, just like other religions or spiritual “paths.” For some reason, people love to make up rules and then try to force others to conform to their beliefs and rules. This is due, in large part, to arrogance, and the desire to feel “special” and “superior” to others. These are not, to my way of thinking, spiritual qualities, but quite the opposite. Finally, I do not mention religion in my therapy, which is 100% secular, and based on research and on scientific research on how people actually change. But at the moment of recovery, which often happens in a flash, rather suddenly, the patient often “sees” something of a spiritual nature which they had not seen or grasped before. I have never seen anyone lose their religious beliefs because of effective therapy, but quite the opposite. In fact, what we might call “recovery from depression” (or some other problem) sometimes looks an awful lot like what the religious mystics from all religions have called “enlightenment.” So, that's the sermon my dad would have perhaps wanted me to preach from a pulpit! I guess this is my pulpit, and you are in my congregation! And this Sunday morning here in Los Altos, so that's the end of today's sermon!

"Do You Believe the Lies?"In his wilderness temptation, Jesus confronted three lies that we must face. :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Today's episode featured work from these artists: Music: "Big Bear" by Jonny Easton (www.youtube.com/jonnyeaston) "Growing Up" by Scott Buckley (www.youtube.com/scottbuckley) Video: Adrian Hoparda (www.pexels.com/@adrian-hoparda-1684220) ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Today is a significant day it's the day after Mardi Gras and it is more than that. And so you will see some rather strange things or people doing what appears to be some strange things today. But they are very important things and you could use taking time to answer the big question of the day, because the answer could truly change your life and if you don't answer things might not go well for you! I'm Stan the radio man and let me tell you the story!... Now let my robot tell you the rest of the story. Do You Believe? The Question That Can Change Your Life By Stan the Radio Man Mardi Gras is the party before the penance, the indulgence before the introspection. Yesterday, the world celebrated with music, dance, and revelry. Today, Ash Wednesday, is the moment of reflection, the time to turn inward. This morning, I participated in the ritual—the marking of the cross on my forehead with ashes. Later tonight, at a friend's request, I will do it again. And it begs the question: does this act really mean anything? Does it change anything? Or is it simply a tradition, a cultural marker, a habit repeated year after year? That is the question. Do you believe? A Story That Stuck With Me Years ago, a man I once worked with—a skilled but flawed salesman—told me a story. He wasn't a saint, but his story had power. He was in Dallas for an important business deal and had arrived early, staying through the weekend to save money on airfare. On Sunday morning, he decided to take a walk. As he strolled past a church, he heard the sounds of fervent worship spilling into the street. Then, out of nowhere, a man came rushing toward him with a bright, eager face and asked, "Brother, do you believe?" Caught off guard, he hesitated. The question came again, louder, more insistent. "Brother, do you believe?" A third time. "Brother, do you believe?" Finally, realizing he needed an answer to end the encounter, he leaned forward and said, "Yes, I believe." With that, the man beamed, shook his hand, and ran back up the church steps. "I'm not of that religious persuasion," the salesman told me later, "but they got the question right." And so I ask you—do you believe? And if so, what do you believe? The Power of Belief Belief shapes behavior. It informs how we act, how we treat others, and how we move through the world. And belief isn't just about religion—it extends into business, relationships, and personal growth. In my work, I often teach "belief-based marketing"—the idea that successful business connections happen when values align. Before you sell anything, you must first ask: what do I believe, and do my customers believe the same? But beyond business, the real question is personal. Do you believe in yourself? In your ability to change? To heal? To be useful? The Mystery of Rituals My friend Ted, a brilliant man, once gave me a small brown bottle. Inside was an oil he made himself, following an ancient recipe from the book of Exodus. It wasn't just a bottle of oil—it was something sacred, something meant for healing. He told me to anoint my forehead, my doorway, even my microphone, as a way of inviting healing into my life. Do I understand how it works? No. Can I prove that it does anything? No. But I believe something happens. And belief has power. There are those who scoff at rituals, who dismiss them as superstition. But rituals matter. They remind us of deeper truths. They connect us to something greater than ourselves. They center us. Whether it's the ashes on my forehead or the oil from Ted's bottle, I believe that these small acts of faith have meaning. The Great Mystery Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent, a season of reflection, sacrifice, and preparation. It is the prelude to the ultimate mystery of faith—that evil can be conquered, that death can be overcome, that suffering can be transformed into healing. It is the audacious belief that, in the midst of darkness, there is light. And so I leave you with these questions: What do you believe in? How does that belief shape your behavior? Are your actions aligned with what you say you believe? Are you embracing the mystery, or are you ignoring the questions? Rituals, traditions, and faith—these are not just relics of the past. They are tools for understanding, for connection, for transformation. So today, on this Ash Wednesday, I encourage you to pause, to reflect, and to ask yourself the question that can change everything. Do you believe? And if so—what are you going to do about it?

Do You Believe that “He {God} gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life”? MESSAGE SUMMARY:  You have got to believe; but until you get your thinking right, your life will not change – you have got to believe! It is hard for some people, today, to believe in the miraculous birth of Jesus celebrated on Christmas day. Ok, just start where you are in what you believe. Can you believe that you are a sinner? Can you believe that you are not perfect? Can you believe that you have violated God's laws? Despite this life background, can you believe that God loves you just as you now are? Can you believe that God sent His Only Son, Jesus, to save all that believe in Him so that you would not perish but have eternal life? Maybe this is where you start in believing in the miraculous birth of Jesus; you need to start where you are. Jesus' life was defined by His death on the cross and by His resurrection, thereby, living up to the translation of His name, Jesus – “Salvation”. The Apostle John succinctly summarized the purpose of Jesus birth in John3:16-17: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.".   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, fill me with the simple trust that even out of the most awful evil around me, you are able to bring great good — for me, for others, and for your great glory. In Jesus' name, amen.     Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 91). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because I am in Jesus Christ, I will trust in the Lord with all my heart. I will trust in the Lord with all of my heart and lean not on my own understanding.  In all my ways I will seek to know Him, and He will make my pathways straight.   From Proverbs 3:5f SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): John 1:1-18; Luke 1:27-38; Luke 2:1-22; John 20:27-29; Psalms 69b:13-24.

Wellness + Wisdom | Episode 692 What does it mean to experience God and how to embrace pain as a teacher to deepen your spiritual growth? Paul Chek, Founder of the CHEK Institute, joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 692, to dive deep into the true nature of GOD and the difference between believing in God and experiencing God, how love acts as the essence and expression of divinity, why generational healing, plant medicine, and lucid dreams can unlock deeper understanding of the soul, and the importance of purpose-driven action in aligning with divine consciousness and leading a life of purpose.

Leave Wellness + Wisdom a Review on Apple Podcasts Power Quotes From The Show The Unfinished Business of Your Parents "Whatever you have not resolved in this lifetime will go with you and your children will have to work on it. This is why Jung said, all children are tasked with the unfinished business of their parents' lives. Even if your kids didn't know about it, they're going to have to carry it out because your soul is still in resonance with their genes. So everything that's unresolved in you actually is like a flow of desire that's coming through the psychic energy that the DNA of their bodies is picking up because they're in resonance with you as their parent." - Paul Chek Should You Take Plant Medicine? "People should not do psychedelic journeys either when they're psychologically not ready, they're doing it for the wrong reasons, they're being pressured into it, or they're doing it with the wrong people that have the wrong motives because you can use a psychedelic just as effectively to enter the dark arts as you can the light arts or the healing arts." - Paul Chek Where Are You Living Untrue to Reality? "Your soul only opens the door to the transcendent experiences that are needed for you to awaken to the truth of yourself at the level of our spiritual development that you're at. So you have a God experience when you're ready for it. And until then you have an awareness of all the parts of you that you've put energy into that are blocking you from realizing the truth of yourself. And that's what real spiritual development is, is becoming aware of where you are living untrue to reality." - Paul Chek Links From Today's Show  Paul Chek Paul Chek | All Is God - 3 Part Series Be Here Now by Ram Dass The Religious Case Against Belief by James Carse IG reel @paul.chek Spirit Gym - 15% off with code "JOSH15" Salicrow and Angie Chek: Death and Beyond  How to Eat, Move and Be Healthy! by Paul Chek 668 Evolve Your Consciousness: The True Healing Work To BE An Adult, Learn How To Love + Live A Thriving Life | Margo Running It Didn't Start With You by Mark Wolynn Josh's Trusted Products | Up To 40% Off Shop All Products
