In honor of Samhain/Halloween month, this episode discusses the Dark, the Shadow, and the External Pernicious Influences that can, and do, affect our lives. Host Renata Maniaci speaks with Jerry Becker, an Ayurvedic practitioner, Healing Touch instructor, and expert in setting energetic and spiritual boundaries and protections. Discussion topics include: what are the different levels of entities (outside influences, demons, etc.) and how to deal with them, how to work with our own Shadow aspects, and personal stories interacting with 'The Dark'. Earth is a dualistic planet of both Light and Dark, feminine and masculine, 'good' and 'bad'; this episode sheds some light on what the dark may hold for us. Listen and decide for yourself: Are you Afraid of the Dark?
