For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by the workings of the human brain, and the big questions like does the brain create consciousness and does our sense of self originate in the brain?  That’s why I was excited to connect with this episode’s guest, neuropsychologist and author of No Self, No Problem: How Neuropsychology Is Catching Up To Buddhism, Chris Niebauer.  Chris’ work seamlessly blends spiritually and neuropsychology, showing us how advances in brain sciences are pointing us back toward age-old spiritual teachings.   Trust me, you will not want to miss this episode! 

Highlights:

**Chris shares his journey of awakening after a tragic loss, and how this experience transformed his work as a neuropsychologist. 

**Chris shares how recent discoveries in neuroscience support ancient wisdom of Buddhist teachings.

** Chris explains why neuroscientists still cannot find the seat of the self in the human brain.

** We discuss the differences in how the right and left brain process information and why this matters to our sense of self and spirituality

** We discuss the process of spiritual evolution and awakening, and how to work with rather than fighting against the ego. 

**Chris highlights the importance of using your mind, rather than letting the mind use you.

I just love doing intuitive readings on the show.  So much guidance comes through in these readings, and I believe that we learn so much from each other’s stories and experiences.  In this episode, Jenny asks for guidance on how to deepen her practice of surrender, as she takes on the challenge of selling all of her belongings, living nomadically and learning to let go of her Type A mentality.  

Highlights:

**Surrender means that you let whatever is happening in the present moment be as it is without judgment or resistance. 

**We can get so caught up in the continual push for “self improvement,” we can forget to celebrate all of the progress we have made. 

**Change can be challenging at times and it is normal to fall back into old patterns. When old patterns appear, it is important not to judge yourself and just notice what you are experiencing.  Treat these moments as opportunities for continued learning and growth. 

**Life is ever evolving and you are allowed to change your mind.  Every step is part of the journey and provides valuable information even if it doesn’t work out how you thought it would.

**Honor your journey and path, and try to let go of the need for other people to understand and validate your choices.  Your value and worth comes from within and is best expressed by living purposefully and authentically. 

**By focusing on what brings us joy, we can expand on that joy, and attract more joyful experiences into our lives.

What is consciousness? What is the relationship between the brain and our conscious awareness?  For help answering these questions we turned to this episode’s guest, fellow podcaster and best selling author Mark Gober.  In this episode, Mark shares his research on the mind/body problem, psychic experience, as well as the nuts and bolts of spiritual awakening.

Key takeaways:

**Mark shares his incredible journey from Silicon Valley executive to best selling spiritual author.  

**What is the mind/body problem?

**Why consciousness is the fundamental aspect of reality, not the material and how our brains act as filters of conscious awareness, rather than as the creator of consciousness. 

**We are here on earth to expand our level of consciousness. The ups and downs we go through in life are part of that greater evolutionary process.

**The awakening journey has overarching themes, but the specifics of how we experience the process is different for each of us. 

**People can cling on to old paradigms and ways of understanding the world, because we are more comfortable with what is known and familiar. 

**As you become more conscious and raise your vibration, it can initially be difficult to sustain.  As you experience these elevated states more and more, it becomes easier and more natural to maintain a higher frequency.

Everything is energy, including our patterns of behavior in relationships.  In this episode, we explore how and when it is possible to shift these energy patterns by “cutting cords” and releasing ourselves from “Soul Contracts.”  We also explore some common misconceptions about how energy healing works, and what to look for in an energy healing practitioner. 

Key takeaways:

** Energy healing works through intention.  When we align with the intention to heal and to grow in our relationships, we naturally shift our energy.  

**Cord cutting is an energetic way of setting an intention such as, ‘I am ready to let this person or situation go.’

**Energy healers can work with our energy,  but they cannot override our own deepest wishes, desires and beliefs. 

**You cannot release a relationship or behavior pattern until you have learned what you need to learn from the experience.   Cutting cords only works when you are truly ready to let go. 

**Wherever you are on your journey, you are exactly where you are supposed to be.

**You can’t solve a problem on the metaphysical level and skip the human part.

**True healing and growth always flows from within.

We have so much to learn from our animal friends, especially if we are willing to tune into what they are here to teach us.  This episode of the Intuitive Connection podcast we are joined by animal communicator and author Nicole Birkholzer. Nicole’s unique approach to working with all animals is based on respect, deep listening, and ancient wisdom. I have had the privilege to work with Nicole and I am really excited to share her magic with the Intuitive Connection audience.

Key Takeaways:

-We can all have meaningful communication with our animals, we just need to learn how to listen. 

-Our animals have information to share about their own well being, as well as how they can support us on our human journey.

-Our animal’s behavior can be a reflection of something we need to work on in our own lives.

-Animals live in the present moment.

-Do animals have past lives?

We all make mistakes, it’s an essential part of the human experience.  Earth is an experiential realm where we learn by trial and error.  Making mistakes is part of that learning process.  In this episode we discuss how to make peace with our mistakes, so that we can move forward and not get stuck in the trap of regret. 

Key takeaways:

-Mistakes are a natural part of life because here on Earth we learn through trial and error.

-Our human lens views "mistakes" differently than our soul's perspective.

-Our perception of mistakes is influenced by our early childhood experiences, and how we were taught to view our mistakes.

-Without the possibility of mistakes, there would be no room for expansion and growth.
