Oh this interview is a lot of fun.  Deva Premal and Miten are two world-renowned Kirtan singers/musicians and for good reason.  They're fantastic!  In this interview, they are seated in A Better World's grass-roots studio in downtown Manhattan, chatting up what's deeply important to all of them, and followed by their beautiful singing to the Divine.

Enjoy!

Most people instinctively know that the mind and body are really one 'system' but act as though the mind is "here" and the body "there."  But that's not the case.  They are truly a sign, constantly interacting system.  Thoughts are influencing the way the body functions, and the body is influencing the way thoughts and feelings function.

Getting a grasp of this concept, 'body as metaphor', is incredibly empowering and can actually save lives and prevent illnesses, accidents, injuries, and more.

In this interview, Mitchell and Inna speak of this special relationship and illuminate it for the audience.

Effie Chow is one of a kind.  Her credentials fill a book. Dr. Chow was appointed by President Clinton to the original 15 member White House Commission on Complementary and Alternative Medicine Policy.

She is a world-renowned Qigong Grandmaster energy healer, acupuncturist, author, international speaker, Humanitarian, Futurist, and Visionary. She wielded the female influence in the world at a time when it was mostly only talked about. Recipient of the “Visionary of the Year 1997,” “The Humanitarian of the Year 1999” and “The Visionary of the Decade 2000” Awards, Dr. Effie Poy Yew Chow has for over 40 years been working to integrate Qigong and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) with Western Medicine. “Giving individuals the power to determine and manage their own health and destinies is the secret of true healing” is her motto.

She founded the East West Academy of Healing Arts (EWAHA) in 1973 in San Francisco. In 1988 an arm of that organization, The EWAHA Qigong Institute, was established within EWAHA to promote research and clinical work in medical Qigong. In 2003 she was appointed by the Museum of Science and Industry, Chicago to their National Task Force on The 21st Century Initiative on Life and Health. In 2004 she was invited onto the 15 member international Advisory Board of the CAM Health Expo, and in 2005 onto the 20 member Advisory Board of the National Library of Medicine-Asian American Health Website Users Group. May, 2005 Vancouver General Hospital Nurses Alumnae Assoc. awarded Dr. Chow as the “Most Distinguished Nurse Graduate”

In this interview, Mitchell, who has also been teaching T'ai-Chi, Qi-Gong and Taoist Meditation for many years, and Effie have an uplifting conversation about the values and merits of these ancient Chinese practices and how people everywhere, by integrating them into their lives, would gain the mental, emotional and physical health benefits.

Mitchell interviews this lovely couple from Australia as they passed through New York and shared warm and heartfelt stories with him that stir the soul.

Mitchell interviews Irish psychotherapist, Derek O'Neil, who had a series of synchronistic experiences starting in a bookstore in Dublin, leading him to an ashram in India belonging to Satya Sai Baba.  The stories are remarkable, humbling and make utterly clear that there is a level of consciousness that we contain but is far beyond our conscious minds.  

This interivew and the experiences both Derek and Mitchell have had, prove, beyond a shadow of a doubt, the reality of a Universal Intelligence and consciousness playing a role in shaping our destiny and lives.

Mitchell interviews author Douglas Gillies, who wrote a biography of the remarkable life of former assistant Secretary-General at the United Nations for some 40 years and on the committee to establish the U.N. in the first place.

In this interview, Doug shares stories with Mitchell from his book about Robert's youth, growing up in Alsace, France, by the border with Germany, and the life-threatening experiences he had during WWII as borders shifted and life morphed by the day.

Doug's story-telling skill shows up wonderfully in this interview.

Mitchell interviews world-renowned philosopher, social scientist and systems-thinker par excellence, Ervin Laszlo.

Ervin Laszlo is a philosopher and systems scientist. The author, co-author or editor of 106 different books that have appeared in a total of 25 languages, he has written over 400 articles and research papers. The subject of the one-hour PBS special Life of a Modern-Day Genius, Laszlo is the founder and president of the international think tank The Club of Budapest and of the prestigious The Laszlo Institute of New Paradigm Research. 

The recipient of various honors and awards, including Honorary Ph. D.s from the United States, Canada, Finland, and Hungary, Laszlo received the Goi Award, the Japan Peace Prize in 2001, the Assisi Mandir of Peace Prize in 2006, and was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize in 2004 and 2005.

Mitchell met Ervin at a meeting on the environment at the United Nations which led to the conducting of this interview.

In this interview, Mitchell speaks with scientist, nutritionist and teacher Christian Opitz.  Mitchell has interviewed Christian a few times, from India where they first met in 2005 to Miami, FL. as well as in Germany, where they both traveled together offering a blessing practice to their students.
