  • Encore Mysticism and Mental Health
    Historically, “the church” minimized the frequency and validity of mystical experiences, especially when the experience downloaded different information than that put forth by the church. And since Sigmund Freud associated mystical experiences with narcissism, wishful thinking and delusion, the mental health world has mostly steered clear of any association with these experiences. But more recently there have been rigorous studies done and it has been learned that these experiences are common, frequent and grounding. Research has also found that mystical experiences offer certain mental health benefits to the persons who have these experiences. Researchers have also developed tools for measuring these experiences and differentiating them from states of psychosis—which used to be the way we looked at all mystical experiences. Can we now finally begin to validate our own experiences to the point of living into them? Be here for this enlightening discussion.

  • The Body as Solution to the Soul
    We have been taught that the body is the problem. The body is what makes us sin, with its lusts, its appetites and its hungers. The body is what makes us sick. The body is what makes us die. The body is that which we must discipline and chastise if we find that we have done wrong. Forever, the body has been thought to be the problem. But what if you were to learn that the body is actually the solution to the problem of the soul? What if you were to learn that you cannot fulfill your soul's intention unless the body realizes its nature as soul? We cannot wrap our heads around that idea very easily—but what if it were the truth—all the while we are making it the problem? Today we are going to wrap our heads around this final and fulfilling truth. Don't miss this show. It could mean an awakening.

  • Letting Go of Good, Part III
    We tend to think that "being good" is the same as being genuine. But what the book, "Letting Go of Good: Dispel the Myth of Goodness to Find Your Genuine Self," proves is that it is very possible to strive after goodness, while living a very false existence. In this third episode of the countdown to the launching of that book, we discover some surprises regarding a breakthrough approach to this problem. First, we discover that difficult emotions, unlike what we are taught, are meant to give us a message from the authentic self. In fact they can heal us from a false identity and restore us to authenticity. We are typically taught to push these emotions aside in favor of more "positive" emotions—but we will discover that advise to be a mistake, for it is our most difficult emotions that have the capacity to open us to living from a richer more authentic Self.

  • Letting Go of Good Part II
    It's hard to imagine that there could be a problem with "being good." But the problem is that it is a poor substitute for a true sense of worthiness. It is in fact, based in a mythology that there is a standardized form of goodness that, if we can activate it, will somehow remove from us any sense of unworthiness. And so there are many of us, identified as "good guys" who are giving up their authenticity in an attempt to compensate for a deep sense of unworthiness. In this case, our lives are run by guilt, and we do not know the difference between a motivation that comes from a should, have to or ought to, and a true authentic passion or compassion. This show is the 2nd in a countdown to the launching of the book "Letting Go of Good: Dispel the Myth of Goodness to Find Your Genuine Self." Don't miss this important show about an epidemic problem and its breakthrough solution.
