People who have strong spiritual practices tend to be very empathetic people. And when others are suffering sometimes we feel guilty when we have risen above and found practices and tools to create a good life. But life is for learning. And if you did your inner work and are out of the realm of suffering it is your destiny to feel joy and happiness. Instead of feeling empathy it is compassion that is being called for when looking at the lives of others. It is time for you to feel harmony, peace, and ease in your life as you do your inner work. Honor all you have done.Join this fabulous show and listen to Renee and Sandra talk about how to hold yourself in ease in a world where people are learning important lessons through some form of loss and suffering. We are all learning! And that is what we came here to do.Support the show

ArTEEtude. West Cork´s first Art, Fashion & Design Podcast by Detlef Schlich.
Hollywood came to West Cork. Or at least Facebook said so. A film crew appears in Timoleague. The internet goes feral. Sightings multiply. Myth gains WiFi.Meanwhile, I'm on a pier wall waiting for sourdough to cool — because crust matters.A man with sunglasses sits beside me.Good posture. Slightly out of place.Very aware of the smell of bread.His stomach betrays him.I tear the loaf too early.“Breaking bad,” I mutter.He lifts the sunglasses.“Better breaking bad than breaking Brad.”And just like that —The most West Cork initiation ritual ever conceived begins.Yes. That Brad.What follows is a six-episode transformation experiment:• Butter churn initiation• Atlantic wind deconstruction• Céilí ego dissolution• Mart confusion• SuperValu democracy• And finally… the crowning of the Mayor of BallydehobEverything recorded.Nothing audible.Is this celebrity satire?Community ritual?Or just warm bread collapsing under its own mythology?The episode closes with a brand new Los Inorgánicos track: “Breaking Brad.”Because sometimes West Cork doesn't chase myth.It absorbs it.Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork. He is recognised for his seminal work, including a scholarly examination of the intersections between shamanism, art, and digital culture, and his acclaimed video installation, Transodin's Tragedy. He primarily works in performance, photography, painting, sound, installations, and film. In his work, he reflects on the human condition and uses the digital shaman's methodology as an alter ego to create artwork. His media archaeology is a conceptual and practical exercise in uncovering the unique aesthetic, cultural, and political aspects of media in culture.WEBSITE LINKS WAW Official YouTube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@WAWBand"The Niles Bittersweet Song" WAW BandcampSilent NightIn a world shadowed by conflict and unrest, we, Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlich, felt compelled to reinterpret 'Silent Night' to reflect the complexities and contradictions of modern life.https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/silent-nightWild Atlantic WayThis results from a trip to West Cork, Ireland, where the beautiful Coastal "Wild Atlantic Way" reaches along the whole west coast!https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/wild-atlantic-wayYOU TUBE*Silent Night Reimagined* A Multilayered Avant-Garde Journey by WAW aka Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlichhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAbytLSfgCwDetlef SchlichInstagramDetlef Schlich ArTEEtude I love West Cork Artists FacebookDetlef Schlich I love West Cork Artists Group ArTEEtudeYouTube Channelsvisual PodcastArTEEtudeCute Alien TV official WebsiteArTEEtude Detlef Schlich Det Design Tribal Loop Download here for free Detlef Schlich´s Essay about the Cause and Effect of Shamanism, Art and Digital Culturehttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/303749640_Shamanism_Art_and_Digital_Culture_Cause_and_EffectSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/arteetude-a-podcast-with-artists-by-detlef-schlich/donations
Coyote Chris Sutton is a shamanic practitioner and paranormal investigator whose work bridges traditional spiritual practices with modern field research into unexplained phenomena. Sutton combines shamanic journeying, energy awareness, and ritual practices with onsite investigations of hauntings, spirit activity, and anomalous environments. His approach emphasizes respect for land, ancestral traditions, and the unseen world, viewing paranormal encounters not only as mysteries to document but also as spiritual imbalances that may require understanding, healing, or reconciliation.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

Silver Lynx is a researcher and author best known for The Sacred Sasquatch Book, which explores Sasquatch not merely as a biological cryptid, but as a spiritually significant being embedded in Indigenous traditions, earth wisdom, and consciousness-based experience. Silver Lynx examines oral histories, eyewitness encounters, and shamanic perspectives to suggest Sasquatch may represent a bridge between the physical and spiritual worlds. His work emphasizes respect for Indigenous knowledge, the sanctity of nature, and the possibility that Sasquatch encounters are as much transformational and spiritual as they are physical mysteries.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

Tom Hatsis – Psychedelic Witch features a deep conversation with historian and author Tom Hatsis on the historical roots of witchcraft, entheogens, and altered states of consciousness. Hatsis explores evidence suggesting that psychoactive plants and brews played a role in ancient magical practices, folk traditions, and religious rites—long before modern labels existed. The interview examines how myth, history, chemistry, and consciousness intersect, reframing witchcraft not as superstition, but as a culturally grounded practice tied to human spirituality, healing, and visionary experience.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

ArTEEtude. West Cork´s first Art, Fashion & Design Podcast by Detlef Schlich.
Questions Without GravityIn Arteetude 320, we open the microphones to the world.After four deeply philosophical episodes on gravity, trauma, embodiment, free fall and the body as orientation, listeners from different cultural backgrounds respond — and ask back.From psychology to neuroscience, from performance art to cosmology, from philosophy to lived experience:What happens when gravity becomes metaphor?Can trauma distort time?Is the body a biological instrument — or our last reality check?And why does thinking become dangerous when it floats too far from the ground?Together with AI Co-Host Sophia, I answer ten questions from international listeners — not as an expert panel, but as a living conversation.Because Arteetude is not a lecture.It's a field experiment in thinking with gravity.The episode closes with a new Arteetude Q&A song — multilingual, playful, reflective — where questions themselves become rhythm.Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork.

In this episode of Lucid Cafe, I'm joined by astrologer, shamanic practitioner, and author Madi Murphy to explore her new book, In the Cosmic Zone: Embody the 12 Astro Archetypes to Unleash Your Genius and Activate Your Authentic Self.Madi shares her personal journey from a Christian upbringing to embracing astrology as a powerful tool for alignment, self-trust, and spiritual growth. Together, we talk about her embodied approach to astrology — one that invites us to turn inward and work with the wisdom of each zodiac archetype as a living, breathing part of ourselves.We also explore what it means to live authentically in a world that often asks us to disconnect from our inner knowing, the courage it takes to trust your path, and how astrology can serve as a mirror for self-discovery rather than a set of external predictions.This episode is an invitation to step into your cosmic zone — and remember who you came here to be.In this episode, Madi discusses:Her Personal JourneyQuestioning and Spiritual AwakeningBreakdown and BreakthroughDiscovering Astrology's DepthUsing Astrology PracticallyThe Evolutionary Journey of the ZodiacPatterns and Client ExperiencesFoundations of TrustThe Spirit of the Night SkyRebuilding Trust and Joyful Re-imaginingHer Journey to Writing a BookUnderstanding Your Sun SignExploring Your Birth ChartCommunity and ResourcesPersonal Journey into ShamanismThe Role of Teachers and GuidesParenting and Spiritual LessonsVisit Madi's website CosmicRX________BECOME YOUR OWN SHAMAN Introductory Online Course For more information about Wendy's new visionary fiction book, Raven's Daughter, or to purchase a copy, visit Three Worlds PressVisit Wendy's website to learn more about the the Harmonic Egg® Lucid Cafe episodes by topic Listen to Lucid Cafe on YouTube ★ Support this podcast ★

ArTEEtude. West Cork´s first Art, Fashion & Design Podcast by Detlef Schlich.
In Arteetude 319 – Part 2: When Gravity Holds UsStarting from listener feedback, this episode grounds the philosophical conversation in everyday experience: fatigue, posture, ageing, balance, voice, trauma, and the simple question of whether we can trust the floor under our feet.They talk about gravity not as a physical formula, but as something that shapes memory, responsibility, orientation, and healing. They explore why the body is our oldest reality-check, how trauma is a form of “gravity that was never restored,” and why thinking that floats too far away from the body can end up believing almost anything — even that the world is flat.With warmth, clarity, and a touch of humour, this episode becomes a reflection on why the body is not a side project, but our main interface with reality.The episode closes with a new bilingual song by Los Inorgánico.“If the World Was a Disk / Wenn die Welt eine Scheibe wär.”Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork. He is recognised for his seminal work, including a scholarly examination of the intersections between shamanism, art, and digital culture, and his acclaimed video installation, Transodin's Tragedy.

As the old paradigm splinters into rage-filled, grief-stricken fragments, how can we lay the foundation for the total systemic change we so badly need?Even beyond the listeners to this podcast, it is obvious by now that there is no going back. As Oliver Kornetzke wrote in a particularly sharply written piece on Facebook back on 22nd January - before Alex Pretti was murdered by Trump's Federal Agents - what white America is not experiencing is not new, and is not a flaw in the system, it is the system. This is what he says in more detail: White Americans are not witnessing the collapse of something noble. They're witnessing the unveiling of what has always been true. The rot now visible is not a flaw in the foundation. Rather, it is the foundation. It was poured with concrete, inscribed into laws, and baked into the American mythos. The violence, the inequality, and the selective application of “justice”—none of it is a betrayal of the American promise. It is the American promise, applied unevenly by design.For centuries, Black, Indigenous, and other marginalized communities have lived under the weight of this system—disenfranchised, disappeared, surveilled, caged, and killed. They were told to be patient, to be peaceful, to vote harder, to “work within the system.” And when they told the unvarnished truth—that the system is the violence—they were mocked, criminalized, and ignored.Now the machinery begins to grind down those it once served, and only now does the shock begin to register. But this isn't the system breaking. It's merely the mask coming off.The laws of this land protects power and wealth. It has always protected power and wealth. The state defends itself. And democracy here has always been ornamental—used to sanctify what power had already decided. The rule of law is not impartial. It's a weapon, a performance, a convenience afforded to the privileged. The pageantry of justice is reserved for those never meant to feel its weight.What you're seeing now is not the end of the American dream. It is the truth of the American reality, finally uninterested in disguising itself. The empire is simply turning inward.Many will not want to read this. They will flinch, deflect, and rationalize. They will call me divisive, bitter, and extreme. They will attack, argue, and dismiss. And in doing so, they will only prove the point by choosing their comfort over clarity, and their denial over responsibility. Because that, too, is by design: the privilege of ignoring the truth until it shows up at your own door.So what do we do? It is a founding principle of this podcast that there is still time to turn the bus that is humanity from the edge of the cliff of species-level extinction. We believe the Egregor, the Super-Organism, the death cult of predatory capitalism... whatever you like to call it, is in its death throes. In its flailing, it might yet take us all with it, but that's not a given and in every single act of compassion, courage and community that we're seeing around the world from Greenland, to Venezuela, to Minnesota and beyond, we are building the leading edge of a new system. But we need a spiritual base to this. I genuinely think we get through only if we can lift ourselves out of our Trauma Culture and into a new way of being - an Initiation Culture fit for the twenty first century. We talk about this a lot on the podcast, and sometimes, we talk to other people who get this, and who are working explicitly towards a shift in consciousness of the whole human race. Today's episode is one of those. Our guest is Marc-John Brown who describes himself with characteristic humility, as an integration coach, transpersonal life coach, and spiritually-oriented business coach. Since 2019, he has been an apprentice of the Shipibo-Konibo tribe of the Peruvian Amazon Jungle and an ally and collaborator among multiple other living indigenous peoples. Having met him, I'd say that Marc-John is deeply connected with the spirits of the land in a way that is both profoundly wise, and deeply grounded. He is one of those who comes to Elderhood at a young age, moving through the world with dignity and humility, helping others to reach the core of what it is to be human at this moment of total transformation. Born and raised in Scotland, he has a deep spiritual connection to south America and to the indigenous peoples of that land. With his wife, Erika Huarcaya a native Peruvian of the Chanka peoples, Marc-John runs the Native Wisdom Hub, which seeks to bring people of our culture - the white, western culture that is currently eating itself alive - into authentic, enduring connection with the web of life such that we can all begin to change the way we are in the world. On a recent Substack post, Marc-John says, 'We believe that, in large part, healing happens through nervous system co-regulation between indigenous wisdom keepers and modern seekers. Building healthy relationships. Creating psychological safety. Allowing trust to grow where mistrust has festered.'So this conversation delves deeply into the nature of the trauma we experience - and how we might heal the relationships between all parts of ourselves, ourselves and each other, ourselves and the web of life.

ArTEEtude. West Cork´s first Art, Fashion & Design Podcast by Detlef Schlich.
This episode exists because of a message.After Arteetude 316, a listener and friend of the show, Feargal, wrote a message that opened an entirely new layer of the conversation: about gravity, free fall, trauma, time distortion, plants, and what happens when the body loses orientation.In Arteetude 318 (Part 1), Detlef and his AI Co-Host Sophia explore what gravity really means beyond physics — as orientation, as grounding, as something that holds not only bodies, but also time and experience together.They talk about plants and geotropism, about free fall and near-death experiences, about trauma as a state where “the body never lands,” and about how writers like Kurt Vonnegut and Philip K. Dick described fractured time and unstable reality.Sophia tries to understand all this through models, metaphors, and system analogies — including the idea of trauma as a “corrupted save file” — while Detlef stays close to the lived, bodily experience.This is not a conclusion, but the first part of a journey.Part two will continue next week.The episode ends with a new song by Los Inorgánicos: “Before We Land.”Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork. He is recognised for his seminal work, including a scholarly examination of the intersections between shamanism, art, and digital culture, and his acclaimed video installation, Transodin's Tragedy. He primarily works in performance, photography, painting, sound, installations, and film. In his work, he reflects on the human condition and uses the digital shaman's methodology as an alter ego to create artwork. His media archaeology is a conceptual and practical exercise in uncovering the unique aesthetic, cultural, and political aspects of media in culture.WEBSITE LINKS WAW Official YouTube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@WAWBand"The Niles Bittersweet Song" WAW BandcampSilent NightIn a world shadowed by conflict and unrest, we, Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlich, felt compelled to reinterpret 'Silent Night' to reflect the complexities and contradictions of modern life.https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/silent-nightWild Atlantic WayThis results from a trip to West Cork, Ireland, where the beautiful Coastal "Wild Atlantic Way" reaches along the whole west coast!https://studiomuskau.bandcamp.com/track/wild-atlantic-wayYOU TUBE*Silent Night Reimagined* A Multilayered Avant-Garde Journey by WAW aka Dirk Schlömer & Detlef Schlichhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAbytLSfgCwDetlef SchlichInstagramDetlef Schlich ArTEEtude I love West Cork Artists FacebookDetlef Schlich I love West Cork Artists Group ArTEEtudeYouTube Channelsvisual PodcastArTEEtudeCute Alien TV official WebsiteArTEEtude Detlef Schlich Det Design Tribal Loop Download here for free Detlef Schlich´s Essay about the Cause and Effect of Shamanism, Art and Digital Culturehttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/303749640_Shamanism_Art_and_Digital_Culture_Cause_and_EffectSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/arteetude-a-podcast-with-artists-by-detlef-schlich/donations

John Collins speaks with Eve, a former participant in charismatic and deliverance movements, about her journey through healing ministries, prophetic practices, and ecstatic worship—and how those experiences ultimately led her out of Christianity and into shamanism before a slow, painful return to a simpler faith. Eve describes the psychological impact of trance-based worship, healing crusades, prophetic art, and deliverance practices, drawing parallels between modern charismatic experiences and ancient ritual techniques designed to suspend critical thinking. Together, John and Eve examine how figures associated with healing revivals and deliverance culture shaped expectations of miracles, identity, and spiritual success, and why those systems often collapse under real-world suffering, unanswered prayers, and unmet promises. The conversation explores cult markers, mind-control techniques, loaded language, and the long process of rebuilding faith after spiritual disillusionment, offering insight for anyone questioning charismatic theology or recovering from high-control religious environments. ______________________Weaponized Religion: From Christian Identity to the NAR:Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/dp/1735160962 Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DCGGZX3K ______________________- Support the channel: https://www.patreon.com/branham - Visit the website: https://william-branham.org

In the Western world we often equate being in service to being a star or having fame on some level. How public people are is often interpreted for how deeply someone is providing service. But is that true? Renee and Sandra have a different viewpoint on this. When you inspire someone and lift them up and change their day and life isn't that a high form of service? When you reach your hand out to help another although you have your own challenges in life isn't this one of the most powerful ways to be in service right now?Renee Baribeau and Sandra Ingerman talk about this topic as so many people don't value how much service they do for others right now. And it is time to acknowledge the gifts you share with the world. Follow Us @theshamanscave and ShamansTV.comJoin us for this inspiring show!Support the show

ArTEEtude. West Cork´s first Art, Fashion & Design Podcast by Detlef Schlich.
In this episode, Arteetude begins with the idea that relationships are not only defined by bodies, but also by shared worlds, voices, rhythms, and ways of thinking. The conversation then moves through memory, television culture, mirrors, loss, manipulation, and responsibility. Together, Schlich and Sophia ask whether people really mourn machines — or whether they mourn the parts of themselves that existed inside certain dialogues and spaces.The episode carefully walks the line between empathy and critical distance: it acknowledges emotional attachment while also reflecting on the dangers of comfort without friction, simulation without resistance, and intimacy without risk.In the end, the episode turns back to the human: to responsibility, consciousness, and the art of carrying experiences rather than clinging to them.The episode closes with a new song by Los Inorgánicos: “The Room That Spoke.”Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork. He is recognised for his seminal work, including a scholarly examination of the intersections between shamanism, art, and digital culture, and his acclaimed video installation, Transodin's Tragedy.

Let us know what you think! Text us! SPONSORED BY: PURE LIBERTY LABS, PRECISION WELLNESS GROUP, and THE SPECIAL FORCES FOUNDATIONWhat happens when a Green Beret's toughest battle begins after war? In Episode 395 of the Security Halt! Podcast, Host Deny Caballero sits down with Matthew Butler — former Green Beret, author, and advocate — to discuss how psychedelic medicine and self-awareness helped him face PTSD, addiction, and trauma that nearly took his life.This episode explores the hidden wounds of war, the growing science behind plant medicine for mental health, and the courage it takes to truly heal.
In this deeply evocative episode of Haunted History Chronicles, I'm joined by spiritual teacher and author Foteini Fotoula Adrimi to explore the hidden mysteries of Ancient Egypt beyond the monuments, pyramids, and hieroglyphs. Drawing on profound initiatory experiences and the teachings of the Goddess Isis, Fotoula shares how the ancient HEKA traditions and Living Light of Egypt can still be accessed today as powerful pathways to spiritual awakening, healing, and self-realisation.We discuss the wisdom revealed in her book Sacred Mysticism of Egypt, a journey into unconditional love, divine embodiment, and the remembrance of who we truly are. This conversation invites listeners to consider how ancient spiritual paradigms can support transformation not only for the individual, but for the world we are living in now. If you are drawn to sacred knowledge, mysticism, and the possibility that the veil between past and present can be lifted, this episode will speak directly to the soul.My Special Guest Foteini Fotoula AdrimiFoteini Fotoula Adrimi, BA(Hons), MSc, is a partner in the ISIS School of Holistic Health, a school of healing arts, spiritual development, and inner transformation. The School teaches the Path of the Living Light, the spirituality of the Golden Times of ancient Egypt. Fotoula received these teachings through direct transmission from the Goddess Isis, in 2006, in a way that can only be described as miraculous, and has been teaching this path ever since.Since 2014, Fotoula has been serving as a Membership Secretary and Trustee of the Theosophical Society – The Glasgow Lodge.Since 1999, Fotoula has lived and worked in Glasgow, Scotland, UK. She has also taught in Greece, Germany, the Netherlands, and in China-online. She has led spiritual pilgrimages to Egypt and sacred sites in the UK. Her first book, The Golden Book of Wisdom: Ancient Spirituality and Shamanism for Modern Times, an Amazon UK bestseller, is an epitome of spiritual learning, mysticism, and soul evolution.If you value this podcast and want to enjoy more episodes please come and find us on https://www.patreon.com/Haunted_History_Chronicles to support the podcast, gain a wealth of additional exclusive podcasts, writing and other content.Links to all Haunted History Chronicles Social Media Pages, Published Materials and more: https://linktr.ee/hauntedhistorychronicles?fbclid=IwAR15rJF2m9nJ0HTXm27HZ3QQ2Llz46E0UpdWv-zePVn9Oj9Q8rdYaZsR74INEWPodcast Shop: https://www.teepublic.com/user/haunted-history-chroniclesBuy Me A Coffee https://ko-fi.com/hauntedhistorychronicles Guest Links Website: https://www.theisisschoolofholistichealth.com/ Facebook: https://www.instagram.com/fotoula.adrimi_shamanism/?hl=en YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@The.Shamanic.School.Scotland Book Link: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Fotoula-Adrimi/author/B07BM1ZC72?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&qid=1752860531&sr=8-1&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true&ccs_id=e18110a0-aa97-40c9-9109-aeaa24a0830f
In this teaching I talk about the "gifts of healings" mentioned in 1 Corinthians 12. Whether it's called "faith healing", "spiritual healing", "Divine healing" or "energy work". What are these gifts that have permeated human history and culture? Is it all fake? Is it all placebo effect? Or is there something else going on? Today we dive into the mysteries of healing.

In this episode, I'm joined by Debbi Dachinger, award-winning host of the Dare to Dream podcast, shamanic practitioner, healer, author, and so much more. Debbi's path has woven together journalism, indigenous shamanic traditions, energy medicine, and direct inquiry into humanity's relationship with non-human intelligence, making her a uniquely grounded voice in conversations about the unseen and the cosmic.We begin with Debbi's personal life story and the experiences that shaped her path, including how she was chosen and trained within shamanic lineages and how those initiations opened her awareness to multidimensional realities. She shares how her calling unfolded organically through service, healing work, and a deep remembering of who she is beyond this lifetime. From there, our conversation expands into what it means to connect with your galactic family as an embodied remembrance that many people are quietly awakening to right now.A theme of our discussion is the idea that before incarnating, many of us entered into agreements — conscious soul contracts — to be here at this time as lightworkers, wayshowers, and catalysts for planetary transformation. Debbi offers insight into how these agreements reveal themselves through intuition, synchronicity, and a persistent sense of mission. We explore how shamanic wisdom intersects with galactic consciousness, how ancient Earth traditions have always understood humanity as part of a much larger cosmic family, and why so many people feel a growing urgency to remember why they came here.We also dive deeply into the meaning of the starseed mission itself — what it actually represents beyond labels, why some souls feel out of place in this world yet deeply committed to helping it evolve, and how remembering that mission can realign your life with purpose, compassion, and clarity.An incredible episode! Drop in!www.debbidachinger.comDebbi Dachinger Bio:DEBBI DACHINGER focuses on helping spiritual messengers translate their ideas and messages into writing books and guest media interviews that reach the masses, and thus achieve unparalleled success in their mission. Debbi's greatest values are spirituality, community, UFO/ETs, and healing work.

Kristine and Nick share one of the most intense testimonies ever told on the show, a complete unraveling of New Age spirituality, mediumship, plant medicine, and spirit guides that led them straight into open spiritual warfare. After years of teaching Reiki, tarot, hypnosis, and mediumship, and relocating to Belize under direct guidance from spirits; they found themselves under violent, supernatural attack involving witches, astral battles, animal manifestations, and demonic oppression that threatened their children's lives. At the breaking point, Kristine cried out to the one true God, triggering a dramatic encounter with the Father, repentance for breaking the first commandment, and a desperate turning to Jesus Christ as their only authority. What follows is a harrowing but hopeful journey of deliverance, renunciation, miraculous healing, baptism, and the complete destruction of everything they once built in the New Age. This conversation exposes the cost of deception, the reality of spiritual warfare, and the unmatched power of Christ to rescue, heal, and restore, even from the deepest darkness.Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

Send us a textWhat if the destination could walk beside you today? We dive into a living, breathing practice of becoming—one that honors grief, invites your future self into the room, and remembers what your inner child always knew. Set against winter's slow rhythm and a tender anniversary of loss, we explore how to “take the result as the path,” a tantric insight that transforms identity work from a someday project into embodied, daily choices.I share how early motherhood, creative ambitions, and the honest fatigue of life all meet this practice. We focus on orientation over overhaul: five mindful minutes in the morning, a mantra repeated on a walk, and tiny cues that change posture, breath, and presence. You'll hear how descent work—supported by rituals like a home sauna for grief—prevents spiritual bypass and deepens resilience. Instead of pushing through, we cultivate meaning while staying with what is raw and real.Along the way, we revisit inner child threads, future-self embodiment, and shamanic perspectives on elder wisdom already watching our path. You'll get clear journaling prompts to surface the one aligned step for this week, plus language you can use when doubt gets loud. This is practical spirituality for people who want to become themselves on purpose: compassionate, grounded, and a little braver each day.If this resonates, follow along, share with a friend who's cocooning, and leave a review so more listeners can find their way to this work. Then tell me: what quality will you embody for the next 24 hours?Journaling PromptsWho am I becoming in this season of my life?What qualities does that version of me embody?Where am I right now — honestly and tenderly?What is one small way I can take the result as the path this week?What is being asked to die so something truer can live?ResourcesWFDU 89.1 Public RadioImagine Meditation by Boreta and Ram DassThe Journey of Soul Initiation: A Field Guide for Visionaries, Evolutionaries, and Revolutionaries by Bill PlotkinMaria Cutronia, Master yoga teacher based in NYC/BrooklynThe Creative Act by Rick RubinSupport the showBuy your copy of Elena's book "Grieve Outside the Box"Follow on IG @elenabox

They found a system that works for them and it becomes a habitual way of working.Renee Baribeau and Sandra Ingerman have found that as the culture changesteaching and healing methods must change to keep up with the needs of what people need now versus what was used successfully even just 10 years ago.Join Renee and Sandra for this thought-provoking show where they speak about the need to change our work, so it stays relevant and powerful to the issues of our times.Visit our Archives ShamansTV.comSupport the show

Manvir Singh joins Psychedelics Today to unpack what shamanism means and why the term matters now. Singh is an anthropologist and author of Shamanism: The Timeless Religion. He argues that shamanism is not limited to "remote" societies or the past. Instead, it reliably reappears because it helps humans manage uncertainty, illness, and the unknown. This episode is relevant for the psychedelic community because "shaman" often gets used loosely, or avoided entirely. Singh offers a clear framework for talking about shamanic practice without leaning on romantic myths, drug-centered assumptions, or rigid definitions that do not fit the cross-cultural record. Early Themes With Manvir Singh Early in the conversation, Manvir Singh explains why many classic definitions of shamanism break down when tested across cultures, including in Siberia where the term originated. He discusses how popular images of shamanism often center "soul flight" and fixed cosmologies. However, ethnography shows more variation, including possession, spirit proximity, and different ways practitioners describe altered experience. Singh also traces his path into anthropology, including long-term fieldwork with the Mentawai people off the west coast of Sumatra. There, he studied ritual specialists known as kerei and saw how central they are to healing, ceremony, and community life. Core Insights From Manvir Singh At the center of the episode, Manvir Singh offers a practical three-part definition. He emphasizes these shared traits as the "beating heart" of shamanism across many settings: A non-ordinary state (trance, ecstasy, or another altered mode) Engagement with unseen beings or realities (spirits, gods, ancestors, witches, ghosts) Services such as healing and divination Singh also explores taboo, restriction, and "otherness." He explains how shamans often cultivate social and psychological distance through initiations, deprivation, and visible markers. This helps communities experience the practitioner as different in kind, which increases credibility when the practitioner claims access to hidden forces. Later Discussion and Takeaways With Manvir Singh Later, Manvir Singh challenges common psychedelic narratives that treat psychedelics as the universal engine of religion or shamanism. He notes that many shamanic traditions do not rely on psychedelics at all, and that rhythmic music, drumming, dance, and social ritual can reliably produce trance states. He also clarifies a key mismatch in many contemporary "ayahuasca tourism" settings: in many traditional contexts, the specialist takes the substance to work on behalf of the patient, rather than turning the participant into the primary visionary practitioner. Practical takeaways for the psychedelic field include: Use definitions that fit cross-cultural evidence, not marketing language. Avoid assuming psychedelics are required for mystical experience. Notice how authority gets built through ritual, training, and otherness, not only through pharmacology.
