Note from Marie:

Since I was a young child, I've worried about death. When I was around ten, there was a poem pasted on the bathroom wall that said "Never leave without a greeting, never leave without a kiss, he who goes to meet his fate, doesn't know whom he will miss."

That poem was meant as an inspiration to live life to the fullest. But in my child's mind, it fueled an irrational fear of death-a black hole that gobbles people up.

As I grew older, I learned to deal with the inevitability of death. But my real breakthrough came when I discovered firsthand accounts from people that had experienced death and found it is not the end of our lives.

One such account is the story of Dannion Brinkley. He wrote a book about his near-death experience (NDE), called Saved by the Light, which became an international bestseller. It's a riveting story that shows that we, like energy, are not destroyed by death. Rather, we change over to a different state of living, one of light, love, and consciousness.

While Dannion was the first to give me this new perspective, he is definitely not the only person who has died and returned with an interesting story that proves we live on. I noticed that all these stories have certain common truths. I also noticed there were no books out there for children that share these truths,

Dannion has since become my friend, and his story is the main inspiration behind Danny's story. But as I wrote his experience in a child-friendly way, I made sure to highlight the elements that are true for all people's NDEs.

As a mother, and now a new grandmother, I feel it's an important piece of the puzzle to give to our children as they grow and learn to face our world-that death is not the end. It's a doorway. And it's actually nothing to be afraid of. While we all eventually need to leave behind our physical body and possessions, we will never lose whom or what we love.

In the latest episode, I engage in a discussion with Marie, focusing on her recently published children's book that delves into the near death experience of a young boy, Danny. With eloquence, Marie vividly portrays the profound and transformative effects of such encounters, offering valuable insights for embracing life with a heart full of openness and love. Marie's beautiful creation serves as a tool to initiate dialogues with children about mortality, as well as to explore the question of what happens to us after we die.

#164 The Beauty and Research of Microdosing With Kathryn Starfly

in ,

Bio for Starfly:

Greetings beautiful humyn, 

My early life experiences included sexual trauma, and a strong protective response that significantly  dimmed my natural connection to spirit and intuitive gifts until late in my 50s. As I awoke from my depression/repression I sought to heal, to discover and align with my higher life purpose. During this journey a friend encouraged me to try psilocybin mushrooms to assist in re-writing my neural pathways. 

Much of my life I functioned as a clinical pharmacist, until I became disenchanted with the monetary focus emphasized by much of “big pharma”.  Seeking another way, I began asking to co-create with the plants, fascinated by authors such as Suzanne Simard (The Mother Tree), Stephen Harrod Buhner (Secret Teachings of Plants), Findhorn garden, festivals like Plants EnChant and chance encounters with amazing humyns like author, herbalist and mycologist Dr. Christopher Hobbs. 

I have felt for some time that the entire plant holds much more pharmacological wisdom and spirit than selected portions or synthesized re-enactments do. I have been sitting with different plant medicines and asking to hear and feel their energy and their messages. I am delighted to say that this is now happening! 

In this amazing space of co-creation with the plants and other beings, I feel myself dropping into the great web of oneness where we all exist in love and peace. It is my greatest desire to facilitate that for other humyns, to support loving intentional harmony and assist in humyn evolution, divinely so.

In today’s episode, Kathryn Starfly shares her beautiful journey with micro-dosing psilocybin including how it has improved her quality of life and helped her move beyond depression.

#163 Shaman, Shamanism and Healing With Rick Olsen

in ,

About Beth & Rick Olsen

One moment, Beth and Rick Olsen were enjoying an ordinary life filled with all the joys and frustrations of raising their two children, Josh and Jessie. The next moment, a drunk driver plowed through a red light at eighty miles per hour, hitting their van and changing everything.

Non-Traditional Approaches to Healing

The Olsens attempted traditional healing methods but quickly found that counseling did nothing to help them get a grasp on their monumental loss. They then turned to nontraditional approaches—a decision that led them to Peru. It was there they finally began to undergo the immense physical, mental, and emotional changes that allowed them to understand that everything—including the accident—happens for a reason.

The Nazca Lines are a group of pre-Columbian geoglyphs etched into desert sands in southern Peru, the origin of which remains a mystery.

Rick & Beth participated in a powerful ceremony along a double spiral, similar to a labyrinth flowing inward. The idea is to shed your past and your burdens the further you walk in and feel it peel away as you walk back out. When Rick exited the spiral, his hair had turned white.

Spirit has a master plan

In a split second our lives as we knew them died forever. Spirit has helped to heal us, and has put both of us in many different situations where we have been able to help others. We have integrated the tangible world and the spirit world, and can move between the two. And if you stay open and responsive, Spirit will work on your behalf.

In today’s episode, Rick Olsen shares his and his wife’s beautiful journey of healing after a great loss that led them to discover that with the passing of a loved one, not all is lost.

#161 Don't Stop Believin' With Krista Gorman

in ,

Krista Gorman is a Physician Assistant who, only three weeks after graduating as a PA, suffered cardiopulmonary arrest and died while in labor with her daughter.

Krista died as one person and woke up as another. For 10 years afterward, she tried to integrate the lessons she learned during her NDE but wasn’t successful until she experienced “life on life’s terms” to the point where she was unwilling to keep living that way. She understood life was hers for the creation, for the living, with self-love being the framework and Love for all the entire house. Krista actively began to do the things she needed to do in order to create her life the way she wanted it to be, which included creation of Twelve Principles for Daily Living (directly taken from her NDE) which provided the blueprint Krista needed to shape her thoughts, words and deeds each moment of each day, which has become her beautiful life.

Some of her story and the lessons she learned in the afterlife are shared in her self-published book, I Died And Learned How To Live, available on Amazon. Her NDE account is also featured in a book by Dr. Penny Sartori and the late Kelly Walsh titled The Transformative Effects of Near Death Experiences as well as the book Awakened By Death by Karen Swain and Cyrus Kirkpatrick. In 2017 she and her daughter were featured on the program Story Of God With Morgan Freeman on the National Geographic Channel episode titled Heaven And Hell.

Krista is an active member of the International Association for Near-Death Studies (IANDS) and presented at their conferences from 2014-2017, several presentations were with her husband, Ainsley Threadgold, who also had a NDE. She is scheduled to speak in person at the 2022 IANDS conference in Salt Lake City. In addition, Krista speaks both formally and informally to various groups online and in person. Krista earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology in 1993 and graduated from her Physician Assistant program in 2000. She has been a practicing PA-C ever since. She and Ainsley currently live in Hawaii. Her website is kristagorman.com. She has a YouTube page and Facebook page and can be found on Twitter at Krista_Gorman and Instagram @kgorman717209.

#115 Three Near Death Experiences; One Abundant Life with Robert Kopecky

in , , , ,

Robert Kopecky escaped a traumatic childhood growing up on the edge of San Diego, California, and went on to travel extensively, living a variety of lives as a ski bum, a factory welder, a monumental sculpture fabricator, an underground cartoonist; and finally, as an award-winning Manhattan illustrator, art director, and animation designer for clients like the New York Times, Cartoon Network, and PBS Kids (he’s recently re-designed Sesame Street for traditional animation).

His global journeys—from the remote South Pacific and the Mayan underworld to the media centers of Manhattan, were punctuated by three very different, dramatic "Near- Death Experiences" that eventually led him to years of study, meditation, and service, and the transpersonal realization of a Life beyond that inspired him to write about the spiritual lessons he’d learned the hard way.

When the spiritual essays he posted on his design blog became more popular than the designs, he was “called” to write his first book, How to Survive Life (and Death), 2014 Conari Press, which sent him into the world of “Near-Death” experience as a speaker, teacher, and contributing writer featured on Gaia.com, The Mindful Word, Inner self, BeliefNet, and more. His latest book: How to Get to Heaven (Without Really Dying), Wisdom From a Near Death Survivor, released in 2018 by Llewellyn Books, is a comprehensive guide to experiencing “heaven” in this life.

Robert has been a featured speaker for the 2016, 2018, and 2021 International Association for Near-Death Studies “Explore the Extraordinary” conferences, the Edgar Cayce Association for Research and Enlightenment, the Wisdom of the Near-Death Experience Symposium, the 2018 Afterlife Awareness Conference; and spoken for numerous IANDS Chapters around the country. He has appeared on PBS/WTTW Chicago, and guested on more than seventy radio and television interviews. His multiple Near-Death experiences give him a unique perspective on the phenomena of “the afterlife,” as well as on the life we currently live.

He regularly posts on his popular spiritual blog at RobertKopecky.blogspot.com, and links to his appearances can be found on his site: www.RobertKopecky.com. He and his wife, Sue Pike "The Animal Talker," make their home in Palm Springs, California. He’s presently at work on his third book, The Zen of Near Death.

In today’s beautiful episode with Robert, he shares with us the talk he have at the most recent IAND’s conference. Robert shares with us some of the great challenges he has faced in his life and the spiritual lessons he has learned along the way that has led him to living a full, abundant life.

Jane Del Piero is an Acupuncturist, Nutritionist, Sound healer, Medicine Woman, Modern Day Shaman, Healer, Ascension facilitator and Soul Path Transformational Guide. A sparkling, vibrant, radiant woman who has worked internationally for over 15 years enhancing and supporting the healing of the body. Jane helps individuals heal everyday aches and pains while facilitating a personal journey of stepping into your power and truth by relinquishing self doubts, limiting beliefs and fears. Jane experienced a spontaneous Kundalini Rising in May and December of 2012 propelling her to choose from learned behaviors, patterns of fear, mistrust, anger, survival issues, distrust in Spirit and the Universe, Or to choose faith, belief, trust, love, joy, unconditional love and light. These events forced her to explore the world of unconditional love, trust, faith, courage and the emergence of the divine feminine. Jane has been called to assist others in their personal, professional and spiritual advancement and has aligned herself to help other do deep and profound transformational work, working directly with spirit and source energy. “Jane is a ‘keeper of the keys’ who shows the many doors and opportunities available to you and the key to living your dream. She has access to ancient wisdom and knowledge incarnating in this lifetime with the ability to nurture and reinforcing individuals in their health, businesses, and personal lives as they embark on the journey of Trust and Faith to reawaken their soul level intelligence, intuitive perception and cellular wisdom.” Miss Beatrice Waight
