Belief Busters

Have you ever wondered about who or what God is? This talk invites  you to look at your indoctrinated beliefs and expectations of God.  Imagine being part of a jury that has to find God guilty or innocent of  charges brought against it. Should God be held responsible for all the  death and destruction that happens around us? You decide!! This concludes our series on God, Spirituality, and Intuition. 

Use this cool technique to bring out your own answers from within you! On Belief Busters we are having a conversation with ST Rappaport about how to access your emotions and inner wisdom. ST will describe using a question and answer creative dialogue for you to connect with your own truth. Did you know expressing with your non-dominant hand helps you get quicker to your unconscious desires?

On Belief Busters Podcast we discuss what spiritual awakening means. We  are living in a time when we are seeing the hidden aspects of humanity  coming to the surface. Each of us must decide whether to stay asleep and  add to the hatred. OR choose to awaken to life, light, and connection  to Source.     

Our guest to have this deep dive with is Victoria Shaw, earned her PhD  in Cognitive Psychology at Princeton University, and completed her  postdoctoral training in Educational and Developmental Psychology at  Columbia University Teachers College.  She also received her Masters of  Counseling from Fairfield University.  Victoria is a Licensed  Professional Counselor and Certified School Counselor in the State of  Connecticut. She is also the author of four books and the mother of two  spirited (now adult) children. Victoria says when she made the commitment to her own spiritual growth  and development everything changed.   People, books, teachings and  opportunities appeared at just the right moments.  The path unfolded in  front of her, and with each step forward she gained a greater sense of  wisdom and clarity.  The more her intuitive gifts developed, the surer  she became that it was her destiny to use what she learned to share and  be of service to others.

What is intuition? Why do we need intuition? How does it serve us? Our discussion today answers these questions. We will also talk about how intuition gets blocked, tips to reconnect with it,  which allows you to access your highest self.
