Manly P. Hall Bio:

Manly P. Hall (1901-1990) founded the Philosophical Research Society in 1934, a non-profit organization dedicated to the dissemination of useful knowledge in the fields of philosophy, comparative religion and psychology. In his long career, spanning more than 70 years of dynamic public activity, Mr. Hall delivered over 8000 lectures in the United States and abroad, authored over 150 books and essays, and wrote countless magazine articles.

Many of Mr. Hall's lectures have been transcribed and are available as pamphlets; others were taped live, and the audio recordings are available on CD's as well. He is perhaps best known for his 1928 classic, "The Secret Teachings of All Ages," an encyclopedia of the world's wisdom traditions and symbolic disciplines.

Today, younger generations are re-discovering the works and words of Manly Hall, finding that the material he put forth so many years ago is still relevant and useful today. Mr. Hall's hope for humanity was to learn from the greatest minds of all times so that we may solve current problems - both in society and in the individual - today.

In this episode I delve into predictions and trends for 2021 with psychic and medium, Natalie Lucia Anderson. Natalie is an incredible perceptive intuitive, with a over 15 year history in the field of mediumship and psychic phenomenon. We discuss what she feels is coming ahead in the next year, and some of the changes and events ahead for humanity.. Gaze into the crystal ball with us!

Natalie Lucia Anderson Bio:

Natalie Lucia is a Certified and Advanced Psychic Medium, residing in Suffern, NY. She is certified through the "Lisa Williams International School of Spiritual Development."

Natalie enjoys her time with her family, including her lovable dogs and cats. Yes, you cannot leave her home without some type of animal hair as a parting gift!

​Natalie loves to laugh and smile as much as possible as she believes that laughter truly is the best medicine.

​

When spending time with Natalie you will see how she truly finds spirituality and mediumship an honor and vocation. Her goal is to help those experiencing grief and loss, to find happiness and laughter again.

Why did Natalie choose mediumship? 

While she believes that anyone can tune into the spirit world, she says that through life experiences, loss, tragedy, and miracles, she could no longer deny what she was experiencing. At a point in Natalie's life, she was so riddled with grief that she just couldn't make sense of anything. Over time, she realized that she was seeing things, hearing things, and just knowing things. With this, she took her first mediumship course. After, her teacher told her she has so much faith in her and in her ability so she put it out there that now she needed a mentor. Not only did she find her first mentor, not her last, but she found her extended family. 

With that said, her soul purpose is to give you the gift of knowing there is so more to life than just living.

In this episode I talk with Visionary Artist and host of the 'Autistic Psychedelic Zoom Meet-Up', Nathan Cooper. We discuss how psychedelics impacted his experience with Autism and Complex PTSD, and how psychedelics can be an effective treatment for those issues. Nathan is also creator of the 'Eyedalas' visionary art series, which is an expression of his experience with psychedelics. Come on in!..

Nathan Cooper's Bio:

Art

Through my art I aim to evoke the feeling and ineffable nature of a visionary experience. At the intersections of shape and color, many hidden images emerge. Each represents the exploration of self, in the unfolding manifestations of the mind.

Myself

I have Autism. I was diagnosed with Complex PTSD from childhood. As a consequence I had ceased to create art for nearly 30 years. A visionary experience exorcised much of the trauma I carried from childhood, giving me a new life. It brought an immediate and significant reduction of depressive and anxious thoughts. I suddenly was free from a torment of mind that I wasn’t aware existed until it did no longer. I was renewed with energy, free from those thoughts.

For the first time in my life, I could appreciate myself.

Another experience a couple years later, unlocked the ability to create this art. It isn’t deliberate, but instead flows through me. I have from my mind an infinite source of content to draw upon and it excites me to create and share it with others.

This journey has renewed an intense passion for life, creativity, and experience.

Thank you for your interest and appreciation.

In this episode I sit with Vital Force Herbs' Brynn Anderson as we listen to an amazing conversation with the legendary Michael Talbot as he discusses the 'Holographic Universe' and synchronicity. This interview takes place in 1991, just prior to Michael's death. Expand yourself and join us!

Michael Coleman Talbot (September 29, 1953 – May 27, 1992) was an American author of several books highlighting parallels between ancient mysticism and quantum mechanics, and espousing a theoretical model of reality that suggests the physical universe is akin to a hologram based on the research and conclusions of David Bohm and Karl H. Pribram. According to Talbot ESP, telepathy, and other paranormal phenomena are a product of this holographic model of reality

In 1992, Talbot died of lymphocytic leukemia at age 38

In this episode I have an incredible discussion with Shaman & Alchemical Healer, Nicole Balogh. We break down the power of Alchemy, the mysteries of Egypt, and how we can all heal ourselves. A very powerful conversation designed to enlighten! Grab your ally and join us!

www.serenitynowyoga.ca

Nicole Balogh has been teaching Yoga for 17 years and practicing the healing arts and shamanism for 15 years.

Initially, she apprenticed with a shaman for 5 years and practiced both Reiki and Quantum Touch, but did not find her true calling until she trained with Nicki Scully in the shamanic healing art form called Alchemical Healing in 2010. The power and results of this work lead her to become a teacher of this modality in 2014.

Nik also has a passion for plants and herbal medicine and has trained in traditional and energetic herbal medicine. She lives close to nature in a rural setting in southern Ontario, Canada where she grows and preserves much of her and her families’ food and medicine.

Nik teaches Yoga, Meditation, Alchemical Healing, Shamanic Journeying and Shamanic Mysteries as well as various workshops that support all of these practices. Her goal in all that she offers is to empower and share tools with people so that they can do their own work and heal themselves.

Holding sacred space for the unfolding of whatever needs to arise in order for physical, spiritual, or emotional health of an individual or a group is Nik’s intention. This allows for any of the tools and skills she has in her medicine bag to be available and she is grateful to have the tools to share with people in order to manage the challenging changes and turmoil that come with the cycles of growth we experience.
