In this episode, Andreas Bjørndal, an experienced homeopath with more than 45 years in practice, shares his reflections on healing, teaching, and the evolving landscape of homeopathy. He talks about how homeopathy found him through his early fascination with nature and healing, and how this path led him to found multidisciplinary clinics and guide future practitioners in Norway. Andreas explains key ideas such as the concept of polarity in remedies and the importance of understanding the dynamics of healing rather than focusing solely on individual remedies.   Episode Highlights: 06:17 - Journey into Homeopathy 09:14 - Significant Cases and Learnings 13:47 - Reflections on 45 Years of Practice 17:00 - Evolution of Homeopathy Over the Years 21:31 - Understanding Wholeness and Unity 27:03 - Polarity and Healing Processes 31:36 - The Healing Process Begins with Intention 35:12 - Developing a System of Archetypes 39:09 - Understanding Center and Periphery in Remedies 47:35 - Exploring the Depth of Provings 56:13 - Homeopathy and Consciousness 01:09:56 - The Concept of Oneness 01:27:32 - Case Study: Hashimoto's and Hearing Loss 01:38:13 - Visualizing Archetypes and Polarities   About my Guests: Curriculum Vitae Andreas N. Bjørndal   It is difficult to imagine a role in homeopathy, natural medicine, and integrative health that ANB has not held. For more than four decades, he has been at the very center of the profession—locally, nationally, and internationally.   He founded and led two of the most respected multidisciplinary clinics in Oslo, bringing together more than 20 practitioners across traditional, alternative, and integrative medicine. At the same time, he was a pioneer in education, serving for nearly two decades as Educational Director at the Norwegian Academy of Natural Medicine (NAN), where he shaped curriculum, developed innovative approaches to learning, and guided the majority of homeopaths, naturopaths, and veteropaths in Norway. He has been a teacher of virtually every aspect of homeopathy and naturopathy—ranging from materia medica and clinical practice to philosophy of science, rhetoric, and therapist development—for more than 40 years.   Internationally, he has been a tireless ambassador of the field. As Chairperson of the Norwegian Association of Homeopaths, the European Council of Classical Homeopathy, and the International Council of Classical Homeopathy, he has not only led but also initiated many of the most important organizational and professional structures we take for granted today. He helped establish the first European guidelines for homeopathic education, guidelines that are now recognized globally as the standard. His honorary membership in the Norwegian Association of Homeopaths reflects a lifetime of service to the professional community.   As a lecturer and course instructor, he has been invited around the world for more than four decades, holding seminars on homeopathy, integrative medicine, philosophy, self-development and spirituality. He has trained healthcare professionals—including medical doctors and nurses—on the role of homeopathy in patient care, and his advanced training programs for practitioners have influenced generations of therapists. Beyond medicine, he has guided groups through self-development processes, spiritual initiations, and even journeys of initiation in Egypt.   ANB has also contributed at the policy and research levels. He served on the Norwegian government's Aarbakke Committee, which laid the groundwork for the Act on Alternative Treatment, and on the Ministry of Health's working group on private import of medicines. He has published extensively—hundreds of articles in Norwegian and international journals in print and online, as long-standing contributions to the The Magic Happens Magazine and his own site Holonity. He has conducted frontier research both regarding methodology as well as exploring the healing potential of close to 200 new homeopathic remedies.   In short, ANB's career encompasses the whole spectrum of homeopathy: practitioner, teacher, researcher, author, international spokesperson, and organizational leader. He has carried the field forward with vision, dedication, and a rare ability to connect the scientific, the practical, and the spiritual dimensions of healing in an inspirational and unified way that makes it easy to understand and apply.   Find out more about Andreas Website: https://holonity.com/   If you would like to support the Homeopathy Hangout Podcast, please consider making a donation by visiting www.EugenieKruger.com and click the DONATE button at the top of the site.

The webinar featured Professor Michael Hatchet discussing "Prayer in the Periphery" on August 25, 2025. He explored the philosophical challenge of "praying without ceasing" as mentioned in 1 Thessalonians 5:17.Key points covered:The problem: How can one pray continuously when daily tasks require full attention?Professor Hatchet introduced a framework analyzing consciousness as having three parts:He proposed that continuous prayer might be possible through "peripheral listening" - maintaining awareness of God in the margin of consciousness rather than the center or context. This allows one to remain receptive to divine communication while engaged in necessary tasks.The discussion included parallels with Hindu concepts, noting similarities between Christian prayer and bhakti yoga (devotional practices). Professor Jain highlighted how the topic connects to both dualistic perspectives (where God and devotee are separate) and non-dualistic perspectives in Hinduism.The session concluded with reflections on comparative theology between Christianity and Hinduism, acknowledging Christianity's long history in India dating back nearly two millennia.Professor Michael Hatcher earned his Ph.D. in Philosophy from the University of Southern California. He has taught at Valparaiso University in Indiana—literally meaning 'Vale of Paradise'—and now teaches at FLAME University in Pune, also nestled in a scenic valley. His academic journey, therefore, has moved between valleys, both geographical and intellectual, exploring the depths of philosophy and theology. In this webinar, he spoke on a fascinating theme: 'Prayer in the Periphery.' Drawing from philosophical theology and phenomenology, Professor Hatcher will explore the possibility of unceasing prayer as envisioned in 1 Thessalonians 5:17.Interestingly, the name Thessalonica—from which Thessalonians come—means 'Victory of Thessaly' in Greek, with nikē meaning victory. This resonates with the Sanskrit words jaya and vijaya, which also mean victory. Such linguistic resonances remind us of the deep Indo-European heritage shared by Greek and Sanskrit, bridging traditions and contexts much like Professor Hatcher does in his work. Through the lens of contextual and marginal awareness—as articulated by Gurwitsch and Arvidson—he will invite us to reflect on how individuals might attune themselves to the divine voice while navigating the rhythms of everyday life . Valleys are often places of learning and reflection, where depth of thought can flourish. From Valparaiso, the 'Vale of Paradise,' to the valley setting of FLAME University, Professor Hatcher's path has been marked by such spaces of contemplation. In this lecture, he invites us into another kind of valley — the philosophical and theological exploration of unceasing prayer in everyday life.

The crew gathers together in a desperate attempt to keep the machine left behind by the Builders from destroying the planet and endangering all life on the surface.     

Tune in to hear all about The Infinite Arc Tour (specifically the Portland, ME show), which was a Coheed and Cambria co-headline run with Mastodon, and special guests Periphery! This episode's guest is my best friend from middle school, Adam Bayram, who had his first Mage experience this tour!

After returning to the planet's surface, the crew is contacted by Oni scouts to speak with the council again. Fida receives a terrifying truth about what the Builders left behind.

In this 103rd episode, we dive headfirst into some of the freshest underground and rising metal from around the world. From metalcore infused with melodic hooks to genre-bending death grooves, this lineup hits hard, bleeds creativity, and showcases the extreme diversity of today's metal underground.###

In hopes of assisting the Nadir colonists prepare, the crew is sent back down to the planet to help stage the first habitation center.

A bridge meeting with the Major General leads to more revelations for the crew, as control of the Nadir and their future, spins wildly after the announcement of colonization efforts.

With the situation on the planet developing, the crew is called back to the Nadir by news that the crew is waking up and balance of power is about to shift again.  

Meeting with the council creates an unexpected stir for the crew and their plans.

With the arrival of a surprise escort, the crew prepares to meet a planetary council, and not a moment too soon. 

The darkened station still hold surprises for our crew. Qainat uncovers critical information, but realizes her time is growing short. 

UFOs & NHI operate at the fringe of human awareness. A key question is: why? Is this an indicator of an anti-human agenda? Or, might the very questions we're asking—framed by binary thinking—be leading us to miss the forest for the proverbial trees? Furthermore, what if the unquestioned axioms of the dominant Western paradigm make it the least likely to apprehend the overarching reality?

Heading back to the signal station, the crew delves deeper in hopes of retrieving information on the planet below and the solar system around them.

As the fortification of Europe's borders and its hostile immigration terrain has taken shape, so too have the biometric and digital surveillance industries. And when US Immigration Customs Enforcement aggressively reinforced its program of raids, detention, and family separation, it was powered by Silicon Valley corporations. In cities of refuge, where communities on the move once lived in anonymity and proximity to familial and diaspora networks, the possibility for escape is diminishing. As cities rely increasingly on tech companies to develop digital urban infrastructures for accessing information, identification, services, and socioeconomic life at large, they also invite the border to encroach further on migrant communities, networks, and bodies. In Migrants in the Digital Periphery: New Urban Frontiers of Control (U California Press, 2025), Matt Mahmoudi unveils how the unsettling convergence of Silicon Valley logics, austere and xenophobic migration management practices, and racial capitalism has allowed tech companies to close in on the final frontiers of fugitivity—and suggests how we might counteract their machines through our own refusal.

Guangxi, a region on China's southern border with Vietnam, has a large population of ethnic minorities and a history of rebellion and intergroup conflict. In the summer of 1968, during the high tide of the Cultural Revolution, it became notorious as the site of the most severe and extensive violence observed anywhere in China during that period of upheaval. Several cities saw urban combat resembling civil war, while waves of mass killings in rural communities generated enormous death tolls. More than one hundred thousand died in a few short months. These events have been chronicled in sensational accounts that include horrific descriptions of gruesome murders, sexual violence, and even cannibalism. Only recently have scholars tried to explain why Guangxi was so much more violent than other regions. With evidence from a vast collection of classified materials compiled during an investigation by the Chinese government in the 1980s, Civil War in Guangxi: The Cultural Revolution on China's Southern Periphery (Stanford UP, 2023) reconsiders explanations that draw parallels with ethnic cleansing in Rwanda, Bosnia, and other settings. It reveals mass killings as the byproduct of an intense top-down mobilization of rural militia against a stubborn factional insurgency, resembling brutal counterinsurgency campaigns in a variety of settings. Moving methodically through the evidence, Andrew Walder provides a groundbreaking new analysis of one the most shocking chapters of the Cultural Revolution. Learn more about your ad choices.

Guangxi, a region on China's southern border with Vietnam, has a large population of ethnic minorities and a history of rebellion and intergroup conflict. In the summer of 1968, during the high tide of the Cultural Revolution, it became notorious as the site of the most severe and extensive violence observed anywhere in China during that period of upheaval. Several cities saw urban combat resembling civil war, while waves of mass killings in rural communities generated enormous death tolls. More than one hundred thousand died in a few short months. These events have been chronicled in sensational accounts that include horrific descriptions of gruesome murders, sexual violence, and even cannibalism. Only recently have scholars tried to explain why Guangxi was so much more violent than other regions.

Today I want to start a fun new series on a topic that I've wanted to explore for quite a while, which is the concept of regenerative education. I've worked as a teacher and educational facilitator in different capacities since the beginning of my career, first in before and after school programs for kids, then as an arts and environmental educator at summer camps, then English as a second language in both South Korea and Guatemala, and in between teaching various technical workshops in natural building, permaculture, ecosystem restoration, the transition journey to regenerative agriculture, and of course water management and water cycle restoration. Every time I engage in these activities I gain huge respect for teachers and the incredible skill and patience it takes to be an effective educational facilitator. Similarly, I want to continue to grow as a teacher and even improve my skills as a student since I'm also always in some sort of course or other at the same time. I know this is a wide and nuanced topic and so to help me to become oriented to the considerations and scope of what I'm exploring, I reached out to Pavel Cenkl, who is the Academic Dean at Prescott College in Arizona (US) and the Founder of the Regenerative Learning Network. His work focuses on the intersection of transformative learning, community, and ecology and building a more regenerative, resilient, and equitable educational future. He's also the author of several books including Transformative Learning (with Satish Kumar), “Relational Ecologies: Building Regenerative Community Learning Networks” in Regenerative Ecosystems in the Anthropocene (2023) and “Lessons from the Periphery” in Regenerative Learning (2022). Pavel's current book in progress is titled Networked Learning: Transforming Higher Education through Distributed Learning. This conversation weaves from the troubles with traditional or conventional educational models and why they leave so many behind, and increasingly in debt, through alternative models of teaching and the potential that educational institutions really have. We explore the role of technology in learning as well as the things the digital world can't replace. Pavel also give his take on what makes effective educators and a window into their process of creating learning curriculums that are in line with the concept of regenerative education. This is the first in a series of interviews that I'm in the process of planning so if you have any ideas of what questions I should explore or who I should speak to in upcoming interviews, I encourage you to reach out to me through the Regenerative Skills Discord server. 

The crew meet their first official non-human. Diplomatic relations go into overdrive as the crew realize they are in for a mind-blowing afternoon.

Back from the relay station and trying to get a better handle on the next steps, the crew encounters something unexpected from the surface.

Having exposed a strange creature in the depths of the abandoned signal station, the crew is caught trying to defend itself from a hungry mouth.

For episode 183, Leila and Elia are joined by Wendy Pearlman to discuss her newest book, The Home I Worked to Make: Voices from the New Syrian Diaspora as well as her previous book We Crossed a Bridge and Trembled.  Note that we recorded this episode on November 9, 2024 – just weeks prior to the ousting of the Assad regime. As such, a few small details of the conversation are now ‘outdated', however the conversation we had and Wendy's books still remain extremely relevant and important to understanding the Syrian revolution, war, and its present day.
