You know we spend the first half of our adjustment to any circumstance trying to figure out why it happened just the way it did. Even the good circumstances. We try to make them mean something. All too often, our interpretations of the events in our lives turn out to mean that we are not good enough yet for the good stuff. Just so, our dualistic thinking keeps us bargaining with our realities in ways that stifle our growth. But every single growth experience we have ever had, from taking our first step to growing through the dark nights of the soul, mean that we started somewhere and ended up somewhere else. If we really grew, our identity changed with each curve in the road. We became different than who we were before. So, what do we do when things don't turn out the way we hoped? That's what this show is all about. Don't wave that white flag yet. Tune in, instead.

Today, another exciting guest, Dr. Orloff is the author of the New York Times international bestseller "Emotional Freedom" and the newly released "Second Sight." She is the assistant clinical professor of Psychiatry at UCLA where she also mentors medical students and psychiatry-residents-in-training. Dr. Orloff is about the business of transforming the face of psychiatry as she synthesizes the pearls of traditional medicine with cutting edge knowledge of intuition, energy and spirituality. She advocates for "a democracy of healing" in which every aspect of our being gets a vote in the process of total health and has been celebrated for her unique approach to mental well-being by proving that the links between physical, emotional and spiritual health cannot be ignored. And so today we are going to be talking to her about her newly released book, which chronicles her own challenges and triumphs in embracing her intuition and integrating it into medicine.

What do you do when the pain of loss is so overwhelming that you don't know what to do with yourself? David Ord is back for the second time on Authentic Living to talk with us about his new audio "Lessons in Loving" in which we are taken on a journey to the center of our being, to a place where there is unbroken peace, boundless joy and infinite love.

Do you know what your shadow knows? The shadow is getting kind of a bad rap these days. More than anything else, the gossip about the shadow has it that the shadow is filled to overflowing with all the "evil" we are hiding in there. And there is a primal darkness there in the secret regions of our psyches. But primal darkness is not necessarily evil. And more importantly, there is much, much more hidden in our shadows then all the scary things we imagine. In fact, you may be profoundly surprised to learn of amazing power and the Universal promises that have been hidden away in the closet of your psyche. So what does the shadow know? Tune in to find out.

"Counsel the victim, help one person. Counsel the guru-gone-bad, help hundreds -- if not thousands, says Chavah Aima, guru interventionist. Her perspective is more relevant than ever after the 2009 deaths and injuries in an Arizona sweat lodge ceremony raised new questions about trust in spiritual leaders. A psychotherapist formerly specializing in trauma treatment and addiction recovery, Chavah spent 14 years studying a wide variety of Eastern and Western esoteric traditions. Her upcoming book In the Shadow of the Guru: Spiritual Empowerment and the Dark Side is based on her years in India studying and getting to know many gurus. The book reveals techniques used by Eastern and Western gurus to recruit and keep followers. On this show we will be learning, not only how to tell a true leader from a false guru, but some of the warning signs that your guru may have "gone bad," and how to recover your personal power after surrendering it to a false guru.
