A spellbinding look at the history of the world through the stories of twelve carpets Beautiful, sensuous, and enigmatic, great carpets follow power. Emperors, shahs, sultans and samurai crave them as symbols of earthly domination. Shamans and priests desire them to evoke the spiritual realm. The world's 1% hunger after them as displays of extreme status. And yet these seductive objects are made by poor and illiterate weavers, using the most basic materials and crafts; hedgerow plants for dyes, fibres from domestic animals, and the millennia-old skills of interweaving warps, wefts and knots. In Threads of Empire: A History of the World in Twelve Carpets (St. Martin's Press, 2025), Dorothy Armstrong tells the histories of some of the world's most fascinating carpets, exploring how these textiles came into being then were transformed as they moved across geography and time in the slipstream of the great. She shows why the world's powerful were drawn to them, but also asks what was happening in the weavers' lives, and how they were affected by events in the world outside their tent, village or workshop. In its wide-ranging examination of these dazzling objects, from the 5th century BCE contents of the tombs of Scythian chieftains, to the carpets under the boots of Stalin, Roosevelt and Churchill at the 1945 Yalta Peace Conference, Threads of Empire uncovers a new, hitherto hidden past right beneath our feet. Dorothy Armstrong is a historian of the material culture of South, Central and West Asia. She has taught at the Royal College of Art, Edinburgh College of Art and the University of Oxford. She was the Beattie Fellow in Carpet Studies at the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, where she is now honorary research fellow. Threads of Empire is her first book. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand. His research interests are Cultural Studies; Critical Theory; Environmental History; Medieval (Intellectual) History; Gothic Studies; 18th and 19th Century British Literature.

Renee and Sandra take on a very potent topic about healing. Many shamanic practitioners today are stuck in the illusion that it is the methods of healing that people turn to shamanism today. But in reality, methods have never healed anyone. Shamans have used “methods” as a way to demonstrate that she/he is performing a healing. But the true work that creates the healing is the energetic forces swirling around the client.When the shamanic practitioner creates sacred space, sings, dances, and prepares to be the hollow bone for the helping spirits that is when the most potent part of the work happens.To learn more about this powerful topic join Renee Baribeau and Sandra Ingerman in this fascinating show Shamanstv.com.

Medicine has come a long way in the past 50 years, but here's what's fascinating: many of the breakthrough treatments we use today for pain, addiction, and mental health started with a handful of doctors who were willing to go against the grain.In this conversation, Sam sits down with Dr. Howard Kornfeld, a triple board-certified physician whose career reads like a roadmap of medical innovation. We're talking five decades of pushing boundaries - from emergency medicine to nuclear war prevention to being at the ground floor of psychedelic research.Dr. Kornfeld doesn't just share stories (though he has plenty). He walks us through his transformative experiences at Esalen Institute, his pioneering work with buprenorphine treatment, and his connections to the key figures who literally shaped modern psychedelic medicine as we know it.What makes this conversation essential listening? Dr. Kornfeld's journey shows exactly how questioning established medical practices - while still maintaining rigorous, evidence-based standards - can lead to treatments that actually change lives. His story proves that individual physicians can drive real systemic change, but it requires persistence, innovation, and the willingness to work outside conventional healthcare systems.If you've ever wondered how breakthrough treatments actually make it from "experimental" to mainstream, or if you're curious about what it really takes to challenge medical orthodoxy, this conversation will give you the historical context you need.What You'll Learn in This Episode・How questioning medical orthodoxy led to breakthrough treatments and career-defining insights・The evolution of pain medicine from the 1920s through today and lessons for modern practice・Dr. Kornfeld's journey from emergency medicine through nuclear activism to integrative practice・Historical context for psychedelic medicine's current renaissance and key pioneering figuresEpisode 39 show notes:00:00 Teaser - Physicians as Shamans of Our Culture00:34 Welcome Back To the Podcast 03:04 Challenging Medical Orthodoxy: The Mastectomy Story 07:04 Triple Board Certification Journey 09:41 Cook County Hospital vs Prestigious Academics 12:55 Esalen Institute: A Medical Education Like No Other 17:37 Three Mile Island and Nuclear War Prevention 31:08 Meeting Sasha Shulgin and Early MDMA Research 35:32 Entering Addiction Medicine36:43 The Esalen Psychedelic Research Conference 49:05 From Nuclear Activism to Addiction Medicine 53:037 Buprenorphine: Years Ahead of Everyone Else 1:00:14 The Pendulum Swings of Pain Medicine 1:14:15 Recovery Without Walls Clinic Model 1:17:37 Ketamine's Paradoxical Nature in Addiction 1:20:38 Treating Ketamine Use Disorder 1:22:20 Starting Your Own Practice: Practical Advice 1:28:21 Advice from Your 100-Year-Old Self 1:31:52 Contact Information and ClosingThanks for listeningConnect with Dr. Howard Kornfeld at:Recovery Without Walls

The hosts discuss NYMag's cover story about a particularly wild crypto kidnapping and examine whether this type of wealth makes you more vulnerable.

A few years ago, Sandra read an interesting post on Facebook about how Buffalo walk into a storm to get through it versus trying to find away around the storm. This was a powerful lesson she learned as she tried it while walking through a blizzard and arrived home feeling empowered and revitalized.She tired the same thing walking through pain instead of trying to find ways to suppress it. And there was a blessing and gift waiting for her in doing this.Join Renee Baribeau and Sandra Ingerman and as Renee joins in on this conversation sharing her depth of wisdom that she learned doing the same thing.Is it time for us to face our fears and pain and walk through to the other side where blessings, healing, and a rebirth are waiting for us?

In the Amazon Basin, in the interior of Brazil, systems of ritual and belief have existed for thousands of years unknown to most Brazilians. When the Villas-Bôas brothers established contact with the people of the Xingú less than 100 years ago, they became advocates for the indigenous people to the Brazilian government and society for the culture's preservation. We look at the stories shared with the brothers, exploring the relationship of life, death, and ritual in a drastically changing world.00:31 Map of Peru, Brazil, and the Country of the Amazons00:47 Yawalapiti men, serra do Roncador, MT.

Sandra was reading one of the posts on the Shamans Cave Facebook Page about the Bushmen who dance and sing for hours and the power and healing that comes from doing this. We have talked about the power of dancing, walking, and singing on a variety of past episodes.But as we have gotten into a habit of sitting more through driving, being on our devices too long, being on our computers, and working too long we are once again suppressing the true power that we came here to express. And in shamanic cultures people raise their energy through song and dance.Join Renee Baribeau and Sandra Ingerman as they talk about the healing that comes from movement and song. And Sandra teaches us a healing song at the end of the show. Follow Us @theshamanscave

In this week's podcast Renee and Sandra talk about how on a spiritual level we can keep doing our work to expand and evolve. But if we are in a state of fear and contracting then we are suppressing all the spiritual energy we learned how to raise and this puts an amazing amount of stress on our bodies and nervous system when we are trying to expand and contract at the same time. Is this something you can relate to in your own life?Join this powerful show as Sandra Ingerman and Renee Baribeau talk about how we can stand strong and let our energy flow like the wind and the river of life and feel empowered in this time of change as we choose to leave a state of fear and contraction.  Follow Us @theshamanscave

In chaotic and challenging times trust is our most powerful tool and the one we often have the hardest time embracing. When things are not going well we want to blame, we want to withdraw, we feel victim to the forces of life. But this is part of starting any initiation. There needs to be a breakdown of trust and all we can count on as we enter a time of death and rebirth. But once you get further on the journey you remember the innate strength and resilience that has gotten you through all the challenges in your life.Join Renee Baribeau and Sandra Ingerman  in this powerful show as they inspire you to dig deep and remember the truth that you are strong and resilient and to trust that your own strength will carry you through such a powerful time of change.

This is a more in-depth look at the First Peoples of Texas. Why” because there were people here long before the Spanish and any other Europeans set foot on the land, First, allow me to try and clear up some terminology especially one word and that word is “Indians”.  The people Columbus encountered when he first reached the shores of the continent where misnamed, because Columbus thought he had reached India and as we know, he was wrong.  That's all I'm going to say about the subject. The inhabitants themselves did not refer to themselves in any specific way, other than often using the term “the people”, they did refer to other tribes with names. For example, the early Spanish encountered a group of nomadic buffalo hunters, they called Querechos.  That group was later named Apache, which came from the Zuni word for enemy “apachu” which is what they were called by the Navajo.  While some tribes were “farmers” the Apaches were hunter-gatherers and didn't do a lot of agriculture.  When we speak of the tribes, it is important that we remember that those tribes that were hunter-gatherers had a certain lifestyle dictated by necessity as did those who were farmers.  There is no one broad brush we can paint all tribes with; however, there are certain characteristics that many tribes have in common with one another. One area that was of particular importance to all tribes was in the area of religion or spirituality. Prior to the arrival of the Europeans in the 16th century, the tribes that lived in the area that is now Texas maintained a variety of religious practices.  The majority of them embraced the idea of some type of supreme being and they all had creation stories.  They were usually not monotheistic; many held a belief in a variety of powers often organized in a form of hierarchy. For agricultural tribes, there were various ceremonies that accompanied the planting and harvesting of crops. Hunter-gatherers often sought the help of spirits before searching for game which served as food for the tribe. Most tribes saw the universe in three levels.  The upper level was one of predictability, lower level of chaos, and the level where humans lived which was a mixture of both of the other levels.  The world was divided into 6 regions, north, south, east, west, up, and down and the year had a cold period and a hot period. All believe there is a spirit in everything, including animals such as buffalo, wolves, bears, etc. Spiritual leader shaman,AKA medicine man while all shamans were medicine men, not all medicine men were shamans. Shamans in addition to using plants and instructions from spiritual helpers, they also went into trances to visit land of the dead, where they gathered information on the sickness. What were some of the Hunter-Gatherer Tribes and where did they live? Comanches – North Central / Northwest Texas Kiowas – Panhandle – shared territory with Comanche Held a summer Sun Dance – to insure regeneration of the Buffalo Tonkawas - Gulf Coast (Houston area) Venerated the Great Wolf Karankawas – Gulf Coast (shared territory with Tonkawas – inner gulf coast) Apache – (Lipan) South and Southwest Texas – (Mescalero) West Texas – El Paso Coahuiltecans (KOE-ha-HWEE-ta-kanz) Rio Grande valley in what is now southern Texas and northeastern Mexico Farmers Farming groups tended to revere the earth, corn, rain, sun, and developed their beliefs based on fertility, and crop cycles. Spiritual leader priest – The medicine man or woman, acted like Shamans even going into trances for healing help.  Priests, who most often were men, were religious specialists, had a long period of training valued not for healing abilities but because they knew the rituals and ceremonies to ensure bountiful harvests and healthy people. They also had witches who were evil.  Could change their appearance, become animals, or even sparks of a fire. They stole people's lives and souls.

“All of this together shaped how I began to think about mind, not as something to be mastered, but as a landscape of the unspoken whether it was ghosts or griefs or desires that were hard to relinquish. I saw that the ghost was not always an ‘other'. It was often intimate, tied to lost ones, sometimes to unmet desires, to unbearable longings, but in some ways possession was an attempt to keep close what was slipping away. The ghost doesn't just haunt, it feels as if it wants something, and we just have to learn to develop ears to listen to what it wants.”  Episode Description: We acknowledge Loewald's concept of 'ghosts becoming ancestors' and consider the similarities and differences with those who hold 'ghosts' to be literal. Shalini shares with us her journey to open herself to the uncertainty and ambiguity of these externalized entities while appreciating both their cultural and intrapsychic sources. We learn of her family's involvement with exorcisms, especially her grandmother's "fearless warmth" and "empathy that saw beyond the terror of the ghosts." She considers the many facets of mind that are represented by 'ghosts' and the essential value of approaching them as guides to the "landscape of the unspoken." Shalini describes a long term engagement that she had with an individual who "taught me to receive the inchoate and horrific...to contain the brokenness and not interpret it away.. and to appreciate the glimpses of beauty in the most grotesque parts of self."   Our Guest: Shalini Masih, a psychoanalytic psychotherapist and writer, grew up in India amidst priests and healers, witnessing spirit possession and exorcism. Now based in Worcestershire, UK, she holds a Master's degree in Psychoanalytic Studies from Tavistock & Portman, London, and a PhD from the University of Delhi. Mentored by psychoanalysts Michael Eigen and Sudhir Kakar, she's an award-winning scholar of the American Psychological Association. She has taught and supervised psychoanalytic psychotherapists in Ambedkar University, Delhi and in Birkbeck, University of London. Her acclaimed paper, 'Devil! Sing me the Blues', was nominated for Gradiva Awards in 2020.

In nature we have trees that who feed so many beings – humans, birds, insects, all that lives on the earth and air. And from a shamanic point of view these trees feel honored when we eat and feel nurtured from their fruits. But of course, then comes a cycle of regeneration of the silent process of going within to regenerate and become nourished again to have the strength tobloom in the spring and summer.This the most basic explanation of the cycle of life of the times when we grow horizontally and have the energy to give to others then shift into a time when we need to go within to our inner world to put our roots deep into the earth to draw up nurturance and raise our branches to the sky to draw down regenerative energy from the divine worlds.Join Sandra Ingerman and Renee Baribeau as they speak about this important topic and inspire you to look at how to balance your cycles so you are living in a way where you feel fully nurtured before you offer help to others and the planet.

In this episode of The Psychedelic Podcast, Paul F. Austin welcomes Dr. Simon Ruffell, a psychiatrist, ayahuasca researcher, and student of curanderismo. Find full show notes and links here: https://thethirdwave.co/podcast/episode-300/?ref=278 Simon shares his transformative journey from being a skeptical Western psychiatrist to embracing the spiritual dimensions of plant medicine after experiencing what he describes as an "ontological shock" during an ayahuasca ceremony. He discusses his ongoing apprenticeship with Shipibo curanderos in the Amazon, his research into ayahuasca's effects on mental health and epigenetics, and his work bridging indigenous wisdom with Western scientific understanding. Dr. Ruffell explores the differences between Western medical approaches and traditional healing practices, highlighting how the Shipibo focus on harmony and balance rather than fixing specific problems. Through his organization Onaya, he conducts reciprocal research with indigenous communities, studying how ayahuasca affects veterans with PTSD and examining the epigenetic changes that may explain its profound healing effects. Dr. Simon Ruffell is trained across three modalities: Western medicine (as a medical doctor specializing in psychiatry), research psychology (with a PhD in Amazonian ayahuasca and mental health), and traditional plant medicine (as a student of curanderismo). He is the Chief Medical Officer of MINDS, a nonprofit research organization exploring the potential of psychedelics and consciousness practices to address humanity's greatest challenges. Since 2015, his work has focused primarily on exploring ayahuasca while collaborating with indigenous communities in the Amazon basin. He is the CEO of Onaya and founded the nonprofit Onaya Science, which researches the effects of ayahuasca in naturalistic Amazonian settings. Dr. Ruffell's work seeks to understand plant medicines from both Indigenous and Western perspectives, and he is currently training in Shipibo Shamanism under Don Rono Lopez. Highlights: A spiritual attack during ceremony that shifted his perspective on reality Bridging indigenous wisdom with Western scientific research The difference between psychedelic guides and trained shamans Ayahuasca and epigenetics: clearing ancestral trauma How traditional medicine evolves and adapts over time Remarkable PTSD treatment outcomes with veterans Approaching healing as returning to harmony EEG research during ceremonial Icaros singing Shamans as navigational experts of the psychedelic realm When to choose Western medicine vs. traditional approaches Episode Links: Dr. Simon Ruffell's Website Onaya Onaya Science Episode Sponsor Psychedelic Coacing Isntitute's Intensive for Psychedelic Professionals in Costa Rica - a transformative retreat for personal and professional growth.

Death is a cycle of nature. We die with every change that happens to us in life. Due to so many illnesses circulating our over populated planet we are seeing death effect us all on a personal level. Loved ones and friends are dying at what feels untimely. No one is completely protected from the effects of toxins and the viruses and bacteria causing so much illness.Our generation is seeing deaths at a rate that makes us wake up to the preciousness of life and how we need to care for ourselves and our loved ones. Self care is so important right now. And being responsible for taking care of your affairs is so important as we are seeing the devastating impact on loved ones and families who are left with a legal mess. We have so many friends in this position.Renee and Sandra decided to take on this topic as Sandra is hearing about an alarming number of her students and acquaintances that are being left with closing down a loved ones life and they don't even know where to start. In the times we are living in we need to learn how to age responsibility by taking care of ourselves and our affairs. Join us in this powerful show!

In a lot of spiritual traditions gossip is a way to make people feel that they are superior to others who have made a misstep or who are not behaving in an ethical manner. It is true it is up to our communities to let people know when there are unethical teachers who are hurting others instead of truly teaching ethically from a place where they have done a lot of personal work to tame and transmute their shadow.When we can do this we end up creating unity which is so needed today. Division is separating all of us from joining together from a place of power. Join Renee and Sandra as they speak about the importance of lifting people up instead of creating more division in a divisive world. Join us as we celebrate life and unity!

In this extremely relevant show to the times we are living in, Renee and Sandra speak about an article in the New York Times where a psychologist talked about letting go of the need to forgive people who abused you but instead have compassion for what made them behave in such a destructive way.It is an interesting concept to think about today where people try to force forgiveness. Forgiveness can't be forced as it comes only at the right time when we have come to a new place in our life.Join Renee and Sandra as they explore the power of compassion in this show filled with a lot of old time wisdom.

Forbes Brasil called her “one of the most important futurists in the world.” It's hard for me to measure the impact she's had on business leaders, tech startups, marketing and communications firms, arts schools, and in the lives of the countless other people.We talk about the relationship between numbers, language, and the ineffable, ever-shifting human spirit. Adah's work points past knowledge and history into the elemental nature of both human and machine, past our differences into the deep similarity worth celebrating and the mystery that we inhabit and embody. Join us for a yarn that is both silly and profound, present and far-reaching, about being uncategorizably creative, open, and curious amidst the wicked problems of our time…Project Links• Read the project pitch & planning doc• Dig into the full episode and essay archives• Join the online commons for Wisdom x Technology on Discord + Bluesky + X• Join the open, listener-moderated Future Fossils Discord Server• Contact me if you have questions (patron rewards, sponsorship, collaboration, etc.)• Browse the HOTL reading list and support local booksellersChapters0:00:00 - Teaser0:00:49 - Intro0:05:24 - Feeling Seen & Heard0:09:54 - Adah's Biography0:17:21 - Poetry & Number0:27:55 - Cyborg Shamanism & The Five Elements0:37:03 - The Foraging Neurotype of “Extremely Online”0:51:07 - Surrendering Agency to Systems0:55:14 - The Incremental Reclamation of Agency1:01:19 - Art after Modernity & Healing from Noise1:13:01 - Beyond Narrative & Into Dance1:17:30 - Thanks & AnnouncementsAdah's LinksWebsite | Instagram | LinkedIn | Medium | Chartwell SpeakersFinding Our Future in Ancestral Wisdom @ TEDxSohoWhat Kind of Ancestor Do You Want To Be? @ Think With GoogleCyborg Shamanism & The Case for Elemental AI @ AtmosMentioned MediaRefactoring “Autonomy” & “Freedom” for The Age of Language Modelsby Michael Garfield223 - Timothy Morton on A New Christian Ecology & Systems Thinking BlasphemyFuture Fossils PodcastAttention deficits linked with proclivity to explore while foragingby David L.

There has been a cultural sea change over the last year when it comes to health in America. It is shepherded by an unexpected coalition of nutritionists, longevity experts, wellness influencers, holistic and functional medicine doctors, moms wearing babies and natural deodorant, mushroom shamans, and some vaccine skeptics. They've gathered under the banner of Make American Healthy Again, or MAHA, and they're here to tell us that plastic cutting boards, Diet Coke, and pasteurized milk—all things that once seemed perfectly normal in American life—are actually killing us.  A decade ago, if you read that list of personas you would think MAHA is some woo-woo, hippie progressive movement. But here we are in 2025, and this is the same group that helped usher Donald Trump to power.  What does MAHA stand for? What does it look like when it marries itself to power? And what will MAHA actually be able to accomplish over the next four years, under their fearless leader—and risky Health and Human Services nominee—Robert F. Kennedy Jr.?  Live in D.C. during inauguration weekend, Calley Means, Jillian Michaels and Vani Hari explain. Calley is the founder of Truemed and co-author of Good Energy. Jillian is America's original fitness expert and the author of nine books. Vani is the founder of Truvani, and you probably know her from her blog Food Babe. She also got Subway to remove “the yoga mat chemical” from its breads. And, the fact that there was a yoga mat chemical in its bread is the whole purpose of this conversation. Today, the three MAHA whisperers explain why this movement just might be the most powerful political force in American life. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Start Your Transformation Now In this episode of Transform Your Life From the Inside Out, Jim Fortin shares transformative wisdom from three shamans: Don Javier, his mentor Don Juan, and the powerful shaman Donya Maria Sabina. Drawing from their teachings, Jim presents five life-changing pieces of wisdom designed to help you evolve spiritually and transform your life from the inside out.  Each piece of wisdom emphasizes profound spiritual concepts like compassion, energy exchange, detachment, and living from source. Jim explains these teachings with real-life examples, offering insights on how to integrate them into your daily life for deeper self-awareness and fulfillment.  If you're ready to align with your higher self, gain clarity, and live with purpose, this episode will guide you with practical tools and spiritual wisdom.    What You'll Discover in This Episode:  Compassion Beyond the Self (01:52): Why focusing less on “me” and more on the pain of others opens the door to true connection and growth.  Sending Love, Not Pity (11:22): A powerful lesson from Donya Maria Sabina on how to elevate the frequency of your energy when helping others.  You Own Nothing (15:49): Detaching from material possessions to free yourself from fear and embrace your creative power.  Be In the World, Not Of the World (25:39): What it means to live from spirit rather than being attached to physical reality.  Center Yourself in Your Dharma (30:12): How to focus on your true purpose and align with the service you're meant to provide.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway: The wisdom of the three shamans teaches us that transformation begins with self-awareness. By letting go of ego, practicing compassion, and living from source, we can align with our true purpose and find deeper meaning in life. Reflect on this: How can you shift your perspective today to create a more meaningful and fulfilled life?  Mentioned Resources: Neale Donald Walsch Interview Books by Neale Donald Walsch: Conversations with God  Disclosure: Some of the links above are affiliate links, meaning, at no additional cost to you, I will earn a small commission if you make a purchase.
