#181 What Makes You Different, Makes You Beautiful With Christine Ramos

in ,

Christine Ramos, RN, CLC, CCM, IBCLC-Retired

Professionally, Christine is an author and maternal-child health Registered Nurse who has worked as a Certified Childbirth Educator, Certified Doula, Certified Case Manager, and an Internationally Board Certified Lactation Consultant. She has earned two professional degrees. Before becoming an RN, Christine was a social worker for ten years in the mental health field, where she worked therapeutically with people who had mental health and substance abuse challenges.

Ever since she can remember, Christine has been an intuitive empath who can perceive the human energy field. These abilities, combined with her career experiences and education, afford her the insight that addresses the health of our children’s minds, bodies, and souls. This insight led Christine to write “A Journey Into Being. Knowing and Nurturing Our Children As Spirit”, where she masterfully blends science with spirituality regarding all things related to the arrival of new life. Truly a unique work, the manuscript garnered the attention of the late Dolores Cannon, who then published the book through her publishing company in 2006. In 2021 the updated 2nd Edition of “A Journey Into Being” was published. Currently, Christine is an editorial contributor for health, parenting, and spirituality publications worldwide.

In this latest episode, Christine and I delve into the topic of gender fluidity, emphasizing the significance of embracing and honoring our youth for their authentic selves, as they express themselves to us.

#180 Sacred Rituals to Celebrate Young Hearts

in , , ,

On today’s episode, I am very excited to be announcing my new sacred rituals project. I define a ritual as a sacred space or ceremony where joys, fears, and feelings are shared, validated, and embraced using spiritual tools to open the heart and create a sense of belonging, connection, and feeling heard, understood, and loved. A ritual is a celebration of our spiritual lives. Rituals are intended to resonate deeply with the participants, bringing strength and love to carry through life, particularly during challenging times. Used within a family, a ritual can create a sacred and enduring bond.

#179 Part 2: The Spiritual Lives of Children With Kate Adams

in , , ,

Kate Adams PhD is an internationally recognized researcher of children’s spirituality. She spent a decade teaching children, where she was deeply inspired by the insights they shared. Their narratives led her to a path of discovery about children’s spiritual worlds, initially through her PhD, which delved into children’s dreams in sleep which they believed had a divine connection. She has explored a range of spiritual aspects of young people’s lives, and her current project focuses on adults’ memories of their childhood imaginary/invisible friends. Throughout her studies, children have often explained that their spiritual experiences and wonderings are regularly dismissed as imagination, or simply ignored. Kate’s work gives voice to them, to help adults understand young people’s inner worlds and appreciate the wisdom they offer us. 

Kate is a Professor of Education in the UK and has published widely on the subject for over two decades through research papers, articles, and books including Unseen Worlds: Looking through the lens of childhood, and The Spiritual Dimension of Childhood. She has served on the Board of Directors for the International Association for the Study of Dreams and as Co-Chair of the International Association for Children’s Spirituality. Kate regularly gives talks on her research around the world, for a range of audiences, all with the aim of bringing children’s experiences into the light. 

In this episode, Kate and I engage in a delightful discussion regarding her captivating research on the spiritual experiences of children and the valuable insights that can be gained from their perspectives.

#177 Connecting with Animals: A Holistic Approach to Animal Care with Rommie Buhler

in , , ,

Rommie is passionate about animal welfare and is driven to change the perceptions around how we can communicate with them so they can be more consciously looked after. Most people that have animals in their care, while very connected to them, are only seeing part of their health and wellbeing picture. Mostly through what they observe, what they think and the things they may already know, but when you communicate from a higher perspective and you have a conversation with them, you are able to see the whole picture. That means, you are able to support them in a way “they” need, not in a way we think they need as you see the truth behind behaviours, psychological and physical problems. She works globally, but lives on the east coast of Australia as an Animal Communicator, Missing Animals Investigator, Medical Intuitive and Animal Energy Healer. Rommie also runs online and in person courses in Animal Communication, Missing Animals Investigation and Intuitive Development. She is also the TV Show Host of the web TV show, the ANIMALS’ TELEVISION show. A show designed to be educational, inspiring and entertaining to help the welfare of all animals domestic and wild. The Executive Producer of one of Australia’s premier FM Breakfast Radio stations has described her as “too normal”. She’s pragmatic, no nonsense and logical and has been told many times, “you don’t look like an intuitive”. She takes that as a compliment! Challenging the stigma associated with that innate ability we are born with--Intuition, is a constant part of Rommie's conversation. Rommie has been trained with some of the top psychic mediums, controlled remote viewers and intuitive detectives around: Tony Stockwell, Pam Coronado, James Van Praagh and Amanda De Warren.

During this episode, Rommie shares with us her unique perspective on animal communication and how it can help us understand the whole picture of our pet’s well-being. We discuss the importance of connecting with an animal's true essence and how owners’ behaviors can affect their pet’s emotional welfare.

#171 The Importance of Listening Deeply and Validating the Emotions of Children with Brooke Grove

Brooke has advanced degrees in clinical psychology, marital and family therapy and clinical art therapy. Additionally Brooke has post graduate certifications in transpersonal psychology, eco psychology meditation and trauma.

Reintroducing you to your truth and beauty so you can live a more vibrant life. She infuses energy medicine with multi disciplinary psychology creating a holistic emphasis which releases that which no longer serves you. More over she incorporates knowledge from her ever expanding research in the fields of consciousness, kundalini and near death studies.

“People often water down truth with children. They may not have the language for it, but they know when they are not being told the truth. When you teach children it is okay to lie to protect them, you’re teaching them dangerous things about the future. ”

Citing near-death experiences, UFO sightings, and more, An End to Upside Down Contact (Waterside Productions) makes the case that it's time to embrace our species' enduring habit of sensing intelligent life beyond our borders — because the future of civilization may be at stake."

#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.
