Do you keep your Spiritual Reiki practice in a box - separate from your "real life”? I very much used to.In this episode, we dissolve the artificial separation between your Reiki practice and how you actually live. You'll discover what mainstream Reiki training never teaches you: how to safely integrate your full Spiritual Reiki practice - your guides, your belief system, your knowing - into every single day.This isn't about following the rulebook perfectly. It's about reclaiming your Spiritual authority, trusting what you already sense is true, and remembering that Reiki isn't something you do - it's something you live. If you've felt the exhaustion of compartmentalisation, if you're ready to stop waiting for permission to be powerful, if you're sensing there's more to your practice than mainstream training showed you - this episode is for you. By the end of this episode, you will discover: -Why compartmentalising your Reiki practice is actually exhausting you instead of empowering you - and how the artificial separation between "Spiritual practice" and "real life" keeps you waiting for permission to be fully powerful in your own work (even though that authority was never external to begin with). -How to integrate your actual belief system - your guides, your Spiritual team, your knowing - into a full-life animistic Reiki practice without apology, without watering it down, and without needing mainstream validation that what you're experiencing is "real." -The 4 pillars of living an animistic Reiki life - listening to your body's wisdom equally with your Spiritual team's guidance, inviting your belief system without hiding it, recognizing sacred work everywhere (not just formal sessions), and trusting yourself as the creator with spiritual support - not the rulebook. -Where your sovereignty is actually waiting - by identifying the specific places you're still separating your practice from your life, where fear and resistance live, and how reclaiming those spaces transforms you from someone following someone else's system into someone living their own animistic, Spirit-led life. ill add the pod link in laterSpirit-led Reiki Pathway: https://www.reikiredefined.com/spirit-led-reiki-pathway/Lifting the Veil on Reiki free on demand workshop: https://www.reikiredefined.com/lifting-the-veil-on-reikiFree Community: https://www.reikiredefined.com/free-communityYou'll find me most on Tiktok @reikiredefined and other socials @reikiredefined

Evolution isn't about leaving yourself behind. It's about bringing more of yourself forward. That whisper you sense? The one telling you something deeper wants to emerge through your practice and life? This conversation is for you.Join me as we explore the unspoken evolution the majority of Reiki practitioners face who come into my world - when mainstream frameworks start feeling like a sweater you've outgrown. When your clients need exactly what you're hesitant to trust. When you're caught between playing it safe and honoring what's genuinely moving through you in life & work. This isn't about pushing past your edges or spiritual bypassing your very real human needs. It's about finding that sweet spot where expansion and safety coexist, where you can be both deeply spiritual AND deeply human.By the end of this episode, you'll discover:1. Why Your Resistance to Expanding Your Practice is Actually Wisdom You'll understand how your hesitation isn't fear but discernment - and how to work WITH your edges rather than against them to create sustainable evolution that honors your personal  history while opening to your future.2. The Missing Foundations Mainstream Reiki Never Gave You We'll uncover the three critical elements most Reiki training overlooks - personal healing foundations, intuitive clarity, and confident Spiritual connection - and why evolution feels hard without them. 3. How to Trust Your Emerging Gifts Without Abandoning Your Humanity You'll learn the difference between expansion from self-abandonment versus radical self-inclusion, and why becoming a hollow bone doesn't mean losing your sovereignty or grounded wisdom.4. Why Your Personal Evolution is Medicine for Your Clients You'll see how the very tension you feel between safety and expansion becomes the exact medicine your clients need, and how walking this edge yourself prepares you to hold space for their becoming.Perfect for aspiring or qualified Reiki practitioners feeling the call to something more, empaths navigating Spiritual expansion, and anyone whose life & practice feels ready to burst beyond its current boundaries - but needs it to feel safe this time.Spirit-led Reiki Pathway: https://www.reikiredefined.com/spirit-led-reiki-pathway/Free workshop: https://www.reikiredefined.com/lifting-the-veil-on-reiki/Free community: https://www.reikiredefined.com/free-community/You'll find me most on TT and IG @reikiredefined

This excerpt is a guided meditation from the podcast episode Radical Forgiveness from Awakening Process 101 with Pernilla Burke and Louise Juel.

Feeling busier and more distracted than last year? You're not imagining it—and you're not powerless. This guide turns a simple "peg" memory method into a fast, executive-friendly workflow you can use on the spot. Why do we forget more at work—and what actually helps right now? We forget because working memory is tiny and modern work shreds attention; the fix is to externalise what you can and anchor what you can't. As channels multiply—email, LinkedIn, WhatsApp, Line, Telegram—messages blur and retrieval costs explode. First, move details out of your head and into calendars, task apps, and checklists. Second, when you must recall live (presentations, Q&A, pitches), use a method that forces order on demand. That's where "peg numbers + peg words + peg pictures" wins: it's fast, portable, and doesn't depend on a screen. Do now: Decide which meetings require live recall versus notes-on-desk. Use tools for storage; use pegs for performance.  What is the Peg Method—and why does it work under pressure? The Peg Method gives you nine permanent "hooks" (1–9) that never change; you hang today's items on those hooks using vivid mini-scenes. Consistency is the trick. When the pegs stay fixed, recall becomes automatic: say the peg, see the picture, retrieve the item—in order. This scales from shopping lists to leadership talking points, risk registers, and sales objections during a live demo. Executives like it because it's device-free, language-agnostic, and works whether you're in Tokyo, Sydney, or Seattle. Do now: Lock your baseline pegs today so they never change: 1 = Run, 2 = Zoo, 3 = Tree, 4 = Door, 5 = Hive, 6 = Sick, 7 = Heaven, 8 = Gate, 9 = Wine.  How do I build pictures that "stick" in seconds? Use A-C-M-E: Action, Colour, Me, Exaggeration—three-second scenes beat perfect ones. Give each peg-scene movement (Action), crank the saturation (Colour), put yourself in the frame (Me), and overdo scale or drama (Exaggeration). You don't need to "see" it like a film; a whispered line works ("Door: Johanna blocks sign-off"). Across markets, this reduces blank-outs because your brain encodes motion, salience, and self-relevance faster than abstract text. Do now: Practise with two items right now—peg #1 Run and #2 Zoo—timing yourself to three seconds per image.  Can pegs really keep a long list in order? (Worked example) Yes—because the order is baked into the numbers, you can recite forwards, backwards, or jump to any slot. Try this city sequence: Sydney, Toronto, São Paulo, Johannesburg, Seattle, London, Mumbai, Vladivostok, Kagoshima. 1 Run: sprint alongside a kangaroo (Sydney) with a starter pistol; 2 Zoo: monkeys hurl "Toronto" nameplates; 3 Tree: a palm bends under a "São Paulo" sash; 4 Door: "Johannesburg" is painted thick across a revolving door; 5 Hive: bees wear "Seattle" face masks; 6 Sick: a syringe squirts the word "London"; 7 Heaven: "Mumbai" descends pearl-white stairs; 8 Gate: a rail gate slams down with "Vladivostok"; 9 Wine: a crate stamped "Kagoshima." Do now: Recite pegs in rhythm—run, zoo, tree, door…—then replay the scenes. Test #7 or #4 out of order to prove the jump-to-slot works.  What if I'm "not visual," get confused, or blank on stage? Say the peg aloud and attach a one-line cue; keep pegs permanent; rehearse forwards and backwards. If imagery feels fuzzy, talk it: "Tree: São Paulo sash." The rhyme is your safety rail. Confusion usually comes from changing pegs—don't. Under pressure, we default to habits; two short reps (forward/back) create enough redundancy to survive a curve-ball question. If lists exceed nine, chunk them (1–9, 10–18) or create a second peg set for a different category (e.g., "Client Risks"). Do now: Lock your 1–9; rehearse your next briefing once forward, once backward, standing up to simulate pressure.  How do I integrate pegs with my 2025 workflow without more cognitive load? Use a two-lane system: tools for storage and pegs for performance; tag owners and dates inside the images to encode accountability. Calendars, CRMs, and project trackers still carry due dates, attachments, and threads. Pegs handle what you must say from memory: topline metrics, names, objections, decisions. For leadership teams across APAC, EU, and North America, this reduces meeting drag and hedges against tech hiccups. Pro tip: weave critical metadata into the scene ("Door: Sarah blocks approval until Friday 17:00"). Do now: Pick one recurring meeting and move its opening five points to pegs; keep everything else in your agenda doc.  Conclusion: design around your brain, don't fight it Your brain isn't failing—you're asking it to juggle too much in noisy environments. Externalise the bulk; anchor the rest with nine permanent pegs and A-C-M-E pictures. In a week, the "snap-back" effect appears: you say the peg, the scene plays, and the item drops into place—without the stress. Do now: Lock pegs 1–9, run the five-minute drill today, and use pegs for your very next high-stakes conversation.  Author Credentials Dr. Greg Story, Ph.D. in Japanese Decision-Making, is President of Dale Carnegie Tokyo Training and Adjunct Professor at Griffith University.

Have you ever thought about what we need to understand regarding the use of LM potencies?   Join us for our latest episode, in which Gabriel will discuss his practice, which is based on homeopathic potencies known as LMs, and its various benefits, as well as his wonderful experience practicing homeopathy and his idea of sharing this knowledge with native Amazonians.   Gabriel Cambraia Neiva, Ph.D., RSHom, is a homeopath who graduated from the North West College of Homeopathy in Manchester. Following the principles of classical homeopathy, Gabriel has been treating children and adults for the last few years, both in the United Kingdom and in Brazil. From mental health to respiratory and skin complaints, Gabriel supports patients to achieve better health during chronic and acute conditions. Gabriel also offers workshops on homeopathic prescribing. He is a registered member of the Society of Homeopaths, UK, where his practice is based. Gabriel's practice is mostly based on homeopathic potencies called LMs, which are gentle, water-based remedies. According to the father of homeopathy, the physician Samuel Hahnemann, these remedies are the ones most perfected, as there are hardly any aggravations. Reactions are seen faster, and the duration of treatment is drastically reduced. Although usually prescribing one remedy at a time, according to the classical science of homeopathy, there are cases in which support remedies might be needed - these are usually prescribed in lower, centesimal potencies.   Check out these episode highlights: 02:09 - How was Gabriel first introduced to homeopathy 03:21 - His incredible story of how homeopathy helped his son 05:15 - What sparked his interest in LM potencies 11:49 - The usual successful treatment with LMs 13:27 - The various advantages of using LM potencies 16:48 - The ideal starting point in using LMs 18:53 - The proper way of administering LMs 27:44 - Homeopathy as a first line of healthcare in Brazil 30:01 - Homeopathy and shamanism in the Amazon   Know more about Gabriel https://homeopathia.org/   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.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Wednesday morning, the 29th of October, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in the Book of Exodus 25:40, and this is what the Lord says to Moses: ”And see to it that you make them according to the pattern which was shown you on the mountain.” The building of the tabernacle - keep it to the pattern.Then we go straight to the Gospel of John 14:15. Jesus says:“If you love Me, keep My commandments.”Don't tell people you love them, then do the opposite. “You shall know them by their fruit,” Jesus says. An apple tree produces apples, and an orange tree produces oranges. We really need to keep to the pattern. You know what a blueprint is, young man? A blueprint is something that you have been given by a builder, and then he says, ”Build it according to the blueprint. Do not change anything because it is proven, this building will stand if you build it according to the blueprint.” Smith Wigglesworth said, ”Jesus said it, I believe it and that settles it.” No arguments! What does the word say, that is your pattern for this life. That is your blueprint. You know the wisest man that ever lived, according to the word of God, was Solomon, and if you look at Ecclesiastes 1:9, He said, ' ... And there is nothing new under the sun.” It has all happened before, it will all happen again, but we've got some whizz-kids thinking they are inventing something new. Nothing new under the sun. I sound like an old man, don't I? Well, I'm getting old, and I want to tell that young lady, I wish that I knew when I was your age what I know now, and I wouldn't have made so many mistakes and I wouldn't have hurt so many people.The Lord told a farmer named Noah to build an ark. He said build it according to the blueprint, and he did, and the ark never sank, did it? There is nothing new. Running your home - run it according to the principles of God. Discipline in your house, love your wife, submit to your husband, respect your parents, discipline your children. These are according to the blueprint.What about business? “Aah, my people don't want to work for me.” Maybe because you don't pay them correctly. What about having a quiet time every morning? You say, ”Uncle Angus, you're always telling us that.” Of course, I am, because that's where you'll get your instructions for the blueprint that you are going to implement on that day. Practise what you have been taught.Jesus bless you and goodbye.

Good Sunday to you,Before we go to today's piece, let me flag this week's commentary - on the action in the gold and silver markets, in case you missed it. A blip or the start of something more significant?So to the osteopath who isn't an osteopathI first met Michelle Davies at a James Delingpole event. She was buying one of my books and wanted to pay in bitcoin, which got her an immediate gold star. She mentioned quite matter-of-factly that she was an osteopath who had been struck off and, “would I like some treatment?”.As a man with many ailments accumulated over the decades, a large portion of which I have given up trying to heal, I couldn't see much downside to the offer. She might even be able to cure one of the incurables. “Why not?”, I thought.A few days later, in a studio near Worcester, she placed her hands behind my head, went still for a moment, announced that my energy channels were “terrible - blocked, nought out of ten,” manipulated my neck and head for a bit, muttered to herself, sighed, told me off for swearing, got me to speak into a microphone, and then began “sending me frequencies.” I left feeling oddly lighter.So I went back.“I'm trying to have a lucid dream,” I told her. “But I'm not making much progress.”I explained the difference between a vivid dream, which is what it says on the tin, and a lucid dream, which is a dream in which you know you are having a dream, while you have the dream. Keener readers will remember to “get better at lucid dreaming” was one of my ambitions for 2025.“Oh,” she said. “I might be able to help with that.” And she went to work on my channels again.That night, I had nine dreams. Nine. Normally I'd be lucky to remember one or two. None were fully lucid, but still - progress.I went back again. “Can you help me with my ankle?” I've got flat feet and my ankles are very stiff as a result. I've broken my right ankle five times.She held it, paused, and began to cry. “There's so much pain here,” she said. “I can't fix it completely,” she declared, “but I can make it much better”.My ankles are one of the many banes of my life. I still play football, but I am incapable of “putting my laces through it” - that is shooting with my instep. I've not been able to shoot properly since I was in my early 20s. It hurts so much - my foot involuntarily winces moments before I strike, so my whole game is little passes with the inside of my foot. It's limiting. I might get one goal in a game of six-a-side, maybe two if I'm lucky. Usually I don't score.“When are you playing next?” she asked.“Tomorrow.”“I'll broadcast to you,” she said.The following night I scored six goals. SIX.“Have you been having shooting lessons?” one of the other players asked, both miffed and baffled.“What is your biggest goal in life? Michelle asked at another session.“To get Kisses on a Postcard made,” I said.I explained what it is. We came up with a mantra, which I recorded and she layered with one of her frequencies. I began playing it each morning while doing the gentle stretches, which she told me to do, in bed. Three weeks later, I closed the seed funding round I had up to then been struggling with - oversubscribed, no less. All coincidence, I'm sure. But Kisses on a Postcard is finally moving forward.Osteopath No MoreMichelle Davies was a local osteopath in Worcester who had been practising for 25 years. Among the many things she found she was good at treating were sinusitis, asthma, anxiety, depression, baby colic & reflux, sleep issues and infections. The patient testimonials on her website confirmed as much.However, in 2016 the General Osteopathic Council (GOsC) got in touch. In case you are not familiar, GOsC is osteopathy's contribution to The Blob, the army of unaccountable regulators which runs, if that's the right word, Britain, answerable to no man. (If you think the government is in charge, you're deluded).In the great British tradition of unelected bureaucrat, GOsC has discovered the elixir of Blob: a toxic mix of arrogance, incompetence, paperwork and regulatory overreach, which will satisfactorily obstruct any attempt at progress. GOsC explained to Michelle that osteopathy can only cure 12 things, and these do not include the items which Michelle had found she could treat. Unless she removed the 75 patient testimonials, she would face a Fitness to Practise case. She did as she was told and removed the lot.“But I can and have treated these things,” she thought. “I've got 75 testimonials to prove it”.So, in 2021, she brought a claim against GOsC for damages, arguing that their actions had limited her professional scope and censored the public's voice. GOsC questioned her fitness to practise, demanded a psychiatric assessment and access to her medical notes. She refused and was struck off. She could no longer call herself an osteopath. In fact, she eventually got a criminal record for, checks notes, “impersonating an osteopath”. (Read her google reviews, if you want the patients' side of this)BTW I know nothing of GOsC and I haven't researched their side of the story, nor do I care to. They're regulators, so my default position is biased against, and unless they can demonstrably prove they warrant a better opinion, that will remain my position. So Michelle began marketing herself as the osteopath who was stuck off. Three years on she has a practice in Harley Street, charging several times her old rate.Note to any osteopaths reading this: get yourself struck off. It's great for business.If you live in a Third World country, such as the UK, I urge you to own gold or silver. The bullion dealer I recommend is The Pure Gold Company. Pricing is competitive, quality of service is high. They deliver to the UK, the US, Canada and Europe or you can store your gold with them. More here.A Healing WeekI later discovered she also offers “healing weeks.” She comes to stay with you and your family for seven days and treats everyone daily. I thought we could all use a tune-up, and to my surprise when I proposed the idea, the Frisby household agreed: my eldest son (24), his heavily pregnant girlfriend (23), and my eldest daughter who lives nearby (22).Each of us had 60–90 minutes of treatment every day - osteopathic manipulation, cranial work, red and blue light therapy, terahertz wand, frequencies, castor oil packs, and more.My pregnant daughter-in-law was having problems with acid reflux and carpal tunnel numbness. Michelle got rid of the former in one session, the latter took a couple. My son's hips and ankles loosened up, and he started sleeping better. My daughter's pelvis, inflamed from a childhood incident involving a pillowcase and a staircase (news to me), finally began to settle, and she has reported improvements to her PCOS. I also sent Goat, my bassist and who makes many of my videos, for some treatment (in exchange for filming the video below). He's had a heavy stammer all his life, After three sessions, you can actually have a normal conversation with him. Meanwhile, I have become an even more astounding human being. We're all still flawed humans, but by the end of the week everyone felt lighter, happier, and healthier, and the house had a different atmosphere.Maybe I'm a sucker. Maybe it's all placebo. Does it matter? I narrated a documentary once about the placebo effect: it is real. If it works, that's all that counts, surely.Imagine a regulator approving placebo treatment …If you fancy a healing week with Michelle, find out more at www.healingwithmichelledavies.com. Just don't tell the GOsC I sent you. And if you live abroad, don't worry: one of the reasons she has started offering these weeks is that she wants to travel more. I gather she has just been booked to go to Singapore.Here's the vid: If you enjoyed this, please tell a friend.Full disclosure: Michelle gave me a discount in exchange for helping her with above vid and for a review. I insisted the review be impartial, which it was, though if my experience had been negative, I probably wouldn't have published it.Until next time,DominicPS Here, again, is this week's commentary.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Friday morning, the 24th of October, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for the day. We start in the Gospel of John 15:7. Jesus says:”If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.” Then we go to the Gospel of Matthew 11:28-29. Jesus says:”Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.”I really want to share my heart with you this morning, the Lord has been so very, very close to me. I've been listening to a broadcast by Andrew Murray, the South African preacher, whose books are still very well read, all over the world. The one I've been listening to is, “Abide in Christ.” Stay in the Lord, that's what he wrote, and then just a few days ago I sent you that thought for today, “Practise the presence of God.” “Practise the presence of God” by brother Lawrence, the French monk who lived 300 years ago. People flocked around him all the time. All he was, was the cook in that monastery. He wasn't the abbot or holding a senior position and he used to mend sandals, remember I told you. In fact, he himself never wore any shoes but the people flocked around him. Why? Because Jesus was in him! You see, he said that Jesus was with him wherever he went, and I want to encourage you today. That's exactly what Andrew Murray's talking about. He says, if you abide in Christ and He abides in you, then you are with God all the time. Whether you are a shoe maker; a cook in the kitchen; whether you are a CEO of a large company; whether you are an airline pilot, whether you are a policeman; a school teacher; a farmer; a miner, Jesus can be with you all the time if you allow Him to.Remember Colossians 1:27: ”…Christ in you, the hope of glory.” It's not about going to church on Sunday. Yes, I go to church every Sunday. It's not about going to a midweek Bible study, I go to two prayer meetings every week, but that's not where I find Jesus. I find Jesus every moment of every day in my life, from the time I open my eyes to the time I go to sleep, and what these mighty men of God are talking about is that we can live with the Lord even when we are here on earth. We don't have to wait until we get to heaven to experience the presence of God!Today, open your heart, listen to the word of God and talk to Him because He wants to listen to you. Jesus bless you and goodbye.

Teens are forming emotional bonds — not just online, but with AI companions. In this episode, Dr Justin Coulson talks with Brown University psychologist Dr Jacqueline Nesi, author of Techno Sapiens, about the fast-growing world of AI “friendships” and what they mean for kids’ mental health. They also unpack Jackie’s latest research revealing how often teens check their phones — and how it’s shaping their moods. It’s a must-listen for parents navigating the blurred lines between connection, distraction, and dependence in the digital age. KEY POINTS 72% of teens have used an AI companion; over half use one regularly. AI chatbots are designed to keep kids engaged — often prioritising screen time over wellbeing. For some vulnerable kids, AI chats can feel like friendship or therapy — but they aren’t replacements for real connection. Australia’s new social-media age-limit laws may help, but implementation and design flaws remain. Teens check their phones an average of 112 times a day — once every 10 minutes! Frequent phone checking is linked with greater emotional ups and downs. Teens who are less mindful tend to reach for their phones more after bad days — using screens as emotional regulation tools. What matters most: how kids use technology and who they are, not just how much. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE “The effects of smartphones on mood and wellbeing are complicated — it’s not that phones are simply bad, it’s about who’s using them and how.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Techno Sapiens – Dr Jacqueline Nesi’s Substack Tech Without Stress – Resources for parents Happy Families – More parenting resources ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Ask your kids how they use AI or chatbots — listen before you lecture. Check your family’s phone “pickups” using Screen Time or Digital Wellbeing. Practise mindfulness together — simple breathing, no-tech walks, or screen-free meals. Talk about emotional regulation — help kids notice when they’re using tech to cope. Model balance — show that your phone doesn’t rule you either. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

How can it happen that a doctor who has been sanctioned or even struck-off in one country can simply move to another and continue working?Shouldn't the various medical registration bodies have robust recording and information sharing systems that would make that impossible. Most patients will assume that to be the case but a new global investigation has found serious flaws in the system.And it is happening in Ireland: 11 doctors who have faced serious sanctions in the UK, including being struck off, remain registered in Ireland.In each case, the UK sanction was not recorded on the doctor's publicly available record published by the Medical Council.The information comes from the Organised Crime and Corruption Reporting Project, which in the past has investigated transnational criminal gangs and drug cartels but in recent months has turned its attention to doctor registration.Irish Times crime and security correspondent Conor Gallagher joined international journalists from more than 50 other media outlets to uncover this very real threat to patient safety. He explains the findings of the report particularly as they relate to Ireland.Presented by Bernice Harrison. Produced by Suzanne Brennan and Andrew McNair. Hosted on Acast.
