Are we in the midst of a great awakening of humanity? That's what my guest today, Dr Moshe Daniel Block, believes. But why does that matter? It is because this is a time of hope. As each individual dives deeper into exploring their “I AM”, the spirit that flows within them, and comes to the profound realization that their life can be wondrous and full of abundance and health the power of this collective awakening grows and more and more people will realize there is great power within them to overcome anything, even so called incurable illnesses.

In this episode, Dr. Moshe Daniel Block, a naturopathic doctor and innovator in holistic health, shares his journey from being a sick child to discovering the power of the mind-body connection in healing. He discusses his unique approach, the VIS Dialogue, which emphasises the importance of asking questions to uncover subconscious beliefs that contribute to illness. Dr. Block also explores the concept of electroculture in agriculture, the significance of flexibility in health, and the idea that chronic illness can serve as a catalyst for personal growth and spiritual evolution.TakeawaysDr. Block developed the VIS Dialogue, a counseling method that integrates mind-body medicine and psychology.Electroculture uses energy from the atmosphere to enhance agricultural growth.Personal experiences with illness can lead to a deeper understanding of health and healing.The mind and body are interconnected; mental beliefs can manifest as physical illness.Chronic illness often serves as a message for personal growth and self-reflection.Healing is not a linear process; individuals may experience ups and downs in their journey.Beliefs about perfection can hinder healing and contribute to illness.The VIS Dialogue focuses on asking questions to help clients uncover subconscious beliefs.Unconditional okayness is a key principle in achieving mental and emotional well-being.Daily practices like Kriya Yoga can help maintain a state of peace and acceptance.Time Stamps00:00 Introduction to Dr. Moshe Daniel Block03:00 Electroculture and Alchemy in Agriculture08:15 Personal Journey Overcoming Illness and Finding Purpose14:50 The Mind-Body Connection in Healing20:00 Chronic Illness as a Message for Growth28:00 The Role of Beliefs in Health and Healing33:00 Lessons from Personal Struggles and Compassion in Practice35:00 Navigating Parenthood and Personal Transformation40:00 The Power of Questions in Healing48:00 The Essence of Being Okay with What Is57:00 Daily Practices for Inner PeaceHow to contact Dr Moshe Daniel BlockVis Dialogue Training - Holistic Counseling Certification for Practitioners holistic-counseling.caSix month Health Program for anyone struggling with health issues, mental, emotional, and physical, chronic disease. https://dr-moshe.com/

"Joe", an inventor from down under, and innovator of the Joe Cell was/is a very special individual who was divinely inspired to build devices (cells) to experiment with water. Most noted was his "cell" integrated with the Internal Combustion Engine in which he introduced a new energy concept to generate power. Joe admonished that his inventions could not be understood within the context of conventional Atomic theory, and also required a knowledge of water as a conduit for informational fields. This, of course, challenged the sacred cows of "science", but also revealed God's elegant design that can be applied for the production of renewable energy, water purification systems, and even the healing of human biology. "We just haven't figured out how God works!" ~ Joe Moshe Daniel Block joins this Alfacast for an in-depth exploration of the science behind the Joe Cell, and to introduce our audience to his own technology as a further evolution of the original Joe Cell. Dr. Moshe Daniel Block, ND, VDP, HMC, VNMI, is a naturopathic doctor, author, and innovator in mind-body medicine who graduated from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine in 2000. He created andteaches the Vis Dialogue, a transformative mind-body healing technique that has helped thousands achieve life-changing results, and offers a full certification program in Holistic Counseling (holistic-counseling.ca). Having overcome myasthenia gravis with the medicine he practices, Dr. Moshe also provides personal healing programs for chronic illness and emotional suffering (dr-moshe.com). Our discussion on Joe Cell science will necessarily take us down a few esoteric rabbit holes including Russellian science, Steiner anthroposophical concepts with a bit of Alchemical perspective to round out the mix. These seemingly diverse topics will figure prominently into the reality of "free energy" and the cessation of archaic one-way explosion technologies.

This week's guest, Chris McDonald, is a breath of fresh air in a world beset by false dichotomies between "traditional" and "holistic" approaches to mental health. Chris is a holistic therapist, yogi, meditation teacher, author, and host of The Holistic Counseling Podcast. She owns a group online practice called Path to Hope Counseling. Chris is a 200 hour Registered Yoga Teacher, is certified in brainspotting and offers gentle yoga to clients in session, and offers private yoga sessions. She specializes in treatment of anxiety, depression, trauma and grief in young adults. As the author of Self-Care for the Counselor, she has helped many therapists prioritize their own mental health and wellness. She is a Meditation Teacher on the Aura app and Insight Timer. On this week's episode, host Nikhil Torsekar and Chris cover myriad areas, including: The state of mental health among mental health practitioners, especially after COVID. How self-service mindfulness techniques like three part breathing can help combat burnout and compassion fatigue. How holistic modalities like yoga, breathwork, and guided meditation can be beneficial in getting to the root of the issue vs. superficially addressing symptoms Brainspotting, a modality developed by Dr. David Grand as an offshoot of eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR). How therapists can leverage the basic, yet powerful adage that "where you look affects how you feel" to help their clients effectively process trauma - sometimes moreso than with traditional talk therapy Subtle yoga, which can help ground us, strengthen our connection with the present, find the "window of tolerance" and strike a balance between our sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. The importance of finding community - whether through Facebook groups, virtual / in person happy hours, hosting a podcast, or yoga circles - in navigating the sometimes overwhelming "rabbit hole" of holistic modalities The wisdom of Thich Nhat Hanh (known as the "father of mindfulness"), Kristine Weber (the founder of subtle yoga) and other figures who have influenced Chris in her holistic counseling journey Interested in learning more about subtle yoga, brainspotting, or the other modalities discussed on this episode?

How can you offer your healing gifts in a way that is both ethical and aligns with your values?MEET Midge MurphyAs an energy healing practitioner and the first attorney to receive a Ph.D. in energy medicine, Midge Murphy has a deep understanding of both the law and alternative healing arts. Her unique perspective sent her on a quest for knowledge that ultimately led her to create a guide for her fellow professionals. However, she also realized that the knowledge in the book was only the first step. The second step is for practitioners to take the exam based on the book and earn a Certificate of Completion in ethics, legal issues, and risk management strategies for practitioners of energy healing methods. By earning this certificate, practitioners receive a professional credential that demonstrates that they have an understanding of and competency in ethics and legal issues in the practice of energy healing methods. Having a Certificate of Completion not only raises the standards of the industry but also provides an extra layer of protection for practitioners because of the legal vulnerabilities that are inherent in offering energy healing services to the public. It also offers clients assurances of the level of professionalism and ethical standards of the practitioner. It becomes a means to ensure the trust that attracts more clients. Midge also has an affiliate program for energy healing training organizations. It offers a revenue opportunity for organizations that incorporate her book and exam as part of the required ethics/legal training for its students and practitioners.Find out more at Midge Murphy and connect with Midge on Facebook and LinkedIn Practice Energy Healing in Integrity: The Joy of Offering Your Gifts Legally & Ethically by Midge MurphyIN THIS PODCAST:What does integrity in energy healing mean? 5:25Why is it important for therapists to get more training in ethics and risk management? 17:35What Does Integrity In Energy Healing Mean?The importance of finding the right client for youWhat are the legal risks for licensed practitioners wanting to integrate energy healing into their practice?How to mitigate your risksThe importance of having a very clear and patient-informed consent processWhy Is It Important For Therapists To Get More Training In Ethics And Risk Management?The importance of finding the right training and certification for your fieldEthics in marketing your servicesCan you use testimonials on your website and advertising?Resources for energy-based modalities in...

Today, I have a truly special guest. An award-winning author, a captivating speaker, a dedicated teacher, and a sought-after consultant, Dr. Avrum Weiss has left an indelible mark on the world of psychotherapy. Nationally celebrated for his pioneering efforts in experiential psychotherapy and his revolutionary insights into the theory of change, Dr. Weiss has not only shaped the field but has also mentored hundreds, introducing them to a more personal, relational model of psychotherapy. In recent years, he's turned his attention to a topic that's both intriguing and essential: understanding the internal lives of men and the intricate dynamics between men and women. His latest book, 'Hidden in Plain Sight: How Men's Fears of Women Shape Their Intimate Relationships', offers profound insights into this very subject. And when he's not penning transformative works or guiding the next generation of therapists, you can find him enjoying the serene beauty of an island in the mid-coast of Maine, accompanied by his wife and their loyal canine companion.

In this episode we're diving into the intersection of technology and therapy, exploring the potential of Artificial Intelligence to augment our therapeutic work. In particular, we're focusing on ChatGPT, an AI developed by OpenAI, and how it can be utilized in private practice by generating prompts. Listen to the episode with Kym Tolson. Get ALL THE PODCOURSES for $30! First, ChatGPT can aid in understanding specific therapeutic techniques. For example, a therapist could ask: 'ChatGPT, can you help me understand how cognitive behavioral therapy techniques can be effectively utilized for a client struggling with anxiety and panic attacks? What are some possible exercises or strategies we can work through?' In response, ChatGPT might offer explanations of exposure therapy, cognitive restructuring, or relaxation techniques that could be useful for the client. Second, ChatGPT can assist in formulating questions to help explore a client's self-perception. A therapist could say, 'ChatGPT, I have a new client who is struggling with self-esteem issues. Can you generate some questions that I could use during our sessions?' ChatGPT could then suggest questions like 'What are three personal strengths you believe you possess?' or 'How do you react when you make a mistake?' to help the therapist gain insights into the client's self-perception. Third, ChatGPT can provide explanations of complex therapeutic modalities. For instance, 'ChatGPT, could you provide me with an explanation of the fundamentals of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy?' In response, it might offer a breakdown of the eight phases of EMDR or suggest practical examples of its use in trauma therapy. Fourth, ChatGPT can be useful for preparing group therapy sessions. A therapist could ask: 'ChatGPT, I'm seeing an increase in clients dealing with workplace stress. Can you provide an outline for a possible group therapy session that focuses on developing coping strategies and building resilience?' It might then outline a session incorporating stress management techniques, role-play exercises, and group discussions. Lastly, ChatGPT can support in developing a treatment plan. The prompt could be: 'ChatGPT, I need some help to create a treatment plan for a patient suffering from severe social anxiety. Can you provide some guidance?' From there, it could suggest steps including initial rapport building, psychoeducation, skills training, cognitive restructuring, exposure therapy, and maintenance. In all these ways, AI like ChatGPT can serve as an invaluable resource for therapists, supplementing our skills and knowledge. It's not about replacing the human connection, which is central to therapy, but about leveraging technology to enhance it. As always, any use of AI should prioritize confidentiality and ethical considerations. The Therapy Show with Lisa Mustard is sponsored by TherapyNotes!

Ready to dive into the world of podcourses? In this episode, I'm going to break it down for you. First things first, let's talk about the technical aspects. To create your own podcourse or self-study course, you'll need a learning management system. If you're just testing the waters and don't want to commit to a platform like Teachable or Kajabi right away, I recommend checking out FreshLearn (affiliate link).They have an all-in-one platform and offer a free trial for you to test it out and see if it suits your needs. Now, let's discuss recording your content. Do you prefer audio, video, or both? Personally, I like to keep it simple and use Zoom to record my podcourses. Once I have the content, I pass it on to my editor, who works her magic on it. If you're a busy therapist like me, I highly recommend outsourcing the editing process. If you need help finding an editor, I can connect you with mine, Chelsea. She's fantastic and very helpful. Connect with Chelsea Weaver Podcasting. Alright, let's move on to the content and the steps to get approved as a continuing education provider. I want to share a great resource with you—an episode by Dr. David Hall and James Marland called "Scaling Your Therapy Practice with Continuing Education Courses." They explain different ways to become an approved provider and provide valuable insights. I highly recommend giving it a listen after you finish here. Now, when it comes to content, I'll share what I did to get approved by NBCC (National Board for Certified Counselors). Head over to the NBCC website and explore their CE Provider information. It's all laid out there for you. It may take some time to read through it carefully and understand what you need to do, but it's not too difficult. Here's a quick overview of what you'll need to know if you're aiming for self-study approved provider status. You must create your self-study course before applying. NBCC wants to see your course as a customer would experience it. This includes your landing page, sales page, course materials, and more. Now, let's talk about choosing your topic. It's up to you, but I suggest starting with a topic that all therapists need. You'll also need to define your learning objectives, create a knowledge test, include a course evaluation, and offer a certificate of completion. Who will present the material? Will it be you or someone else? Regardless, make sure to follow the NBCC guidelines for presenters. You can find all the details in the provider policy. The amount of continuing education credit you offer depends on the length of your content. You'll need at least 60 minutes of content for 1 contact hour or 1 CE credit. Once your course is ready, upload the content to your learning management system and test everything to ensure it works smoothly. Then, submit the course along with the necessary paperwork to NBCC and wait for their response. You may need to make some changes or edits to meet their requirements, but they are usually very helpful throughout the process. If your course gets approved, they will provide instructions on how to proceed. Now it's time to market your course and hopefully start making sales. Remember, marketing is crucial, so be prepared to put in some effort to spread the word about your amazing courses. I'll cover marketing in another episode and share what I've done to successfully sell my podcourses. Stay tuned for that! I hope this episode has been helpful to you.

In this episode I'm sharing the 5 reasons you need to have an email list - seriously this is one of my favorite topics because without an email list, I wouldn't be where I am today. But before we dive in, I want to share a personal experience from last week. Last week we were in Orlando Florida for a volleyball tournament, and I rarely checked social media. It was so nice to disconnect from the noise and distractions of social media. So nice in fact, it's been hard for me to log back on now that we're back home. During this social media hiatus, I sold a few podcourses and connected with some potential guests. I only posted on social media one time. Whenever I step away from the constant scroll and swipe, it allows me to truly immerse myself in the world of email marketing, creating meaningful connections and nurturing relationships with my subscribers. This reminded me of the incredible potential we have to connect with our audience on a deeper level, beyond the surface-level engagement of social media algorithms. Email provides a serene and intimate space where we can share valuable content, insights, and offers that truly resonate with our subscribers. So, let's embrace the wisdom gained from my own vacation experience. Let's explore the fantastic reasons why having an email list is not just a marketing strategy, but a profound means of building authentic connections with our audience. Listen to the episode to hear the 5 reasons you need an email list. If you like this topic, then grab my list of 50 ideas for therapists to generate more income. In the email series I also cover ideas of how to grow your emal list, what types of lead magnets work to grow your list as well the mindset you need to cultivate when stepping outside of the therapy room and pivoting your skill set.

Teva Johnstone is a therapist and unschooling mom. She decided to homeschool her daughter because she wanted to preserve her beautiful spirit. Teva knew that could best be achieved outside of traditional school. She's been a social worker and therapist for almost a decade and has been featured on numerous panels and podcasts on the topics of parenting, homeschool, and autism and neurodiversity. She was inspired to focus her practice on differently wired kids when she became a mother to a spirited child. Professionally, she noticed a gap in knowledge and dignified treatment of autistic and highly sensitive kids, so she made it her mission to help turn things around within the field of mental health. When she opened her child therapy practice she learned there was a need for parental care, education and support. So she pivoted her approach to more broadly assist parents. She believes homeschool is a great way to foster children's mental health and development. She is passionate about freeing the youth from government school and watching them soar. Teva lives in Southern California and homeschools her daughter in a beautiful corner of the universe. And in this episode, Teva shares about pursuing a parenting path that is different from the norm, how to know if homeschool is right for your child, plus all about her course A Therapist's Guide To Homeschool that will help you give your child better than the status quo so they can have a rich education and be emotionally and socially well.

I can't believe we are rolling into summer and if you're concerned about the summer slump of low client referrals or a drop in client session hours, now may be the time to get started on creating an additional stream of income. Or perhaps you're feeling burnt out on clinical work and are dreaming of starting something new with your clinical skills…Either way I have you covered! In this episode I'm going to discuss 3 income generating options you might want to consider… Before I dive in, it's important to choose options that align with your values, strengths, and experiences plus with determination and creativity, you can thrive beyond clinical work and find fulfillment in their new business ventures. 1.Workshops, trainings and speaking engagements: Conduct sessions for other therapists or even the general public, covering topics such as stress management, self-care techniques, trauma-informed approaches, or specific therapeutic modalities. Or if you have another specialty that therapists can benefit from like social media and marketing, insurance paneling. etc.. Providing these trainings not only allows you to connect with like-minded professionals but also positions you as an authority in your field. Collaboration with local organizations, such as your state associations, agencies, hospitals, schools, or wellness centers can help reach a broader audience. You may have to provide free workshops or trainings to get started and that's ok because you're getting your name out there as well as the value you provide. Once you get your feet under you - you can start to charge for your workshops and services. A few years ago I did a free online workshop for my local AAMFT chapter and from that workshop I received paid opportunities..so don't count out doing things for free or a small fee. It can lead to more opportunities that will be paid. 2.Writing, Publishing, and blogging: You can utilize your expertise in mental health topics by writing and publishing books, articles, blog posts, or even starting a podcast. These avenues not only allow you to reach a wider audience but also build credibility and generate passive income through book sales or sponsored content. Additionally, therapists can monetize their blog or podcast through affiliate marketing. These are great options if you desire to create an income stream that allows you to work from home as well as in the pockets of your day. If you have small children at home and you aren't able to get out and about as much this is a great option. How do you get started with these? If you want to start writing, I'd suggest looking at upwork or other freelance sites. Experience isn't always necessary so you can probably find some opportunities. Blogging is still a thing! And the more niche your blog, the better. Now blogging takes time, patience and consistency of effort and action to grow but if you want to work from home and cut back on clinical work - growing a blog could be for you. Blog about things you enjoy and are passionate about and what people are searching for - research shows that people want to be healthier, happier and wealthier, so what niches can you write about that help people in one of these areas? Help them solve problems and give them value. Most bloggers monetize through affiliate marketing. Which means that when they recommend a product or service, they are paid a commission, at no extra cost to the purchaser. For example, one company I'm an affiliate for is the mindfulness app. When someone purchases the app through my link, I receive a commission. There are many affiliate marketing programs out there so get creative. 3.Podcasting: Similar to blogging. Pick your niche, create content, be consistent, add value to your audience. If you are curious about podcasting and want a free course, check out this training from John Lee Dumas of Entrepreneurs on Fire podcast. It's the same program I went through before starting my podcast. These are just 3 business ideas that I suggest for therapists seeking a change. If you'd like more ideas then be sure to grab my list that includes 50 ideas for creating an additional stream of income. Before I end today's episode it's important to know that while these ideas take time to grow - it's even more important that you take action on starting As a therapist who has experienced burnout from clinical work, I struggled for many months on how to move through it. I went to therapy, I talked to my life coach, I read a bunch of self-help books…and while each were helpful in their own way, nothing really changed for me until I decided to TAKE ACTION. I took messy, chaotic (at times), and imperfect action. And as I've mentioned before, the first few attempts at starting something new where flops. But I took what I learned from those ‘failures' and kept moving forward. I found I was moving through my burn out because I was taking responsibility for controlling what I could - which was figuring out a way to pivot my skills into something new. I actually found that with my new attitude and vision, I was a better therapist. And while I still experience burn out here and there, it's way more manageable because I am working on growing my business. Take home message? Pick something and start taking action on it. It may help you cope with your burn out. And that's a wrap for today's episode. I hope you found this discussion on business ideas for burnt-out therapists informative and inspiring. If you're a therapist experiencing burnout, remember that taking action and exploring new avenues can lead to a more fulfilling professional journey.

After narrowly avoiding becoming a doctor, Mira Katyal is now a Holistic Counseling and Lifestyle Coach. She has launched her own company MiraOm, offering education and consultation on nature-based healing. The best point to start according to her, is with Emotional Destress Lifestyle Therapy. Because the surest way to know you are in imbalance is through your feelings. Chronic agitated emotions are a sure sign of imbalance. The second-best place to start is with your Digestion. Chronic digestive aliments are another sign that imbalance is present in the body. It is time for humanity to re-embrace Mother Nature and her gentle, but strict wisdom. The outcomes are better sleep, more peace of mind, better digestive power, reduced illnesses, and a greater ability to size our moment within our circumstances. Her method is to align with Mother Nature's laws to regain mental-physical balance, with the help of Ayurveda, Yoga therapy, Reiki, lifestyle, diet and spirituality. In this episode we discuss how she was able to connect to plants spiritually and receive visual messages from them, the miraculous effects of Reiki and why it's so important to be connected to nature and each other.

IN THIS PODCAST:Stand in your confidence Stepping into your gifts Find your holistic community Stand in your confidenceI work with clients all the time who I help [to] stand in their confidence … if you are able to help people with the gifts and skill sets that you have, shout that from the rooftops, and you know what?

(Chris McDonald) Seek out colleagues, mentors, and advisors who either are in your current position or have been there who can help support you.
