  • Understanding Our Deeper-Level Messages for Healing
    Our guest, Miriam Dow came to that point in her life where force her way through the pain was not an option anymore. Diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) and Lyme disease, Miriam’s moment of reckoning came when she realized she’d lost her will to live…. Then she asked herself this not-so-simple question: “What do I do today to help my body come back into balance?” She began to discover how to listen to her body, and in this intriguing interview she will share what happens when the body gets hyper-vigilant and how to:

    • Use sway testing to bring intuition into consciousness
    • Work with your physical and emotional pain points
    • Observe with curiosity and not judgment
    • Allow the body to release the panic

    Not paying attention to what the messages you are receiving keeps your body out of balance. It’s a process to bring the body back in balance that Miriam Dow, B.A., C.H., R.M., C.E.I.T, will share. She works with people who have autoimmune challenges to help them discover the underlying causes of their discomfort and give gentle guidance for feeling better. Miriam does not diagnose or treat disease. As a body-speak interpreter, she communicates the body’s messages, so her clients can make informed choices on their next steps.

  • Food Sensitivities, Inflammation, and the Autoimmune Connection
    A delightful chat with Dr. Elizabeth Yarnell about her mission and methods to improve lives simply by changing the way we think about food and anti-inflammatory diets. As a board-certified naturopath and designer of customized anti-inflammatory diets, Dr. Yarnell runs a nationwide food therapy clinic to help people discover the specific foods that not only taste good but make them feel good, too.

    A 1999 diagnosis of multiple sclerosis forced Dr. Yarnell to re-think everything she thought she knew about health and inspired the now-patented invention of a quick and easy method for cooking whole foods that she introduced in her 2009 best-selling cookbook: "Glorious One-Pot Meals: A Revolutionary New Quick and Healthy Approach to Dutch Oven Cooking."

    In 2011, she launched the “Fight MS with Food” project to investigate the connection between diet and autoimmune symptoms. In this episode Dr. Yarnell shares some of what she discovered, for example:
    Causes of inflammation and how to minimize itWhat are food sensitivities and how you can become allergic to foodThe gold-standard test for finding food allergies The connection between diet and autoimmune symptomsOther things that can cause inflammation besides foodWhat is ‘Dutch Oven Cooking, plus so much more….
    I only wished we’d had more than an hour, as you will hear how passionate Dr. Yarnell is on her quest to improve lives simply by changing the way we think about food.

  • How To Get Out of Your Own Way for Healing
    Today's guest is an author and medium who received the message “Get out of your own way” from American philosopher and author, Dr. Wayne Dyer (1940-2015), after attending his memorial service. As a sincere admirer of Dr. Dyer, a man whose teachings truly transformed her life, Karen Noe was more than intrigued.  

    Asking for an unmistakable sign that it was Dr. Dyer he began to deliver signs that she could not ignore and opened the way for her to become a conduit to deliver profound life wisdom in the new book “WE CONSCIOUSNESS: 33 Profound Truths for Inner and Outer Peace” (Hay House 2018). 

    It is an extraordinary collaboration with past wisdom-keepers bringing forth vital information for all of humanity on how we can achieve heaven on earth today. The 33 concepts in the book are the keys to experiencing the one consciousness to which we all are connected. As we live these precepts, we create the inner peace that can translate into external unity in the world. During our chat, Karen Noe shares with us tips and techniques from these ’truths’ to help us heal our body, mind, and spirit, such as.

    How to create your own miracles.

    How to focus on solutions, and turn on the inner healing light. 

    How the ‘Release The Venom’ technique creates instant results.

    How YouTube can help you heal - and it’s not “Dr. YouTube.’

    Plus so much more....

    Karen Noé, an internationally renowned psychic medium and founder of the Angel Quest Center in New Jersey. She is an internationally sought-after medium, spiritual counselor, healer, and author of the bestselling books; WE CONSCIOUSNESS: 33 Profound Truths for Inner and Outer Peace, Your Life After Their Death: A Medium’s Guide to Healing After a Loss and Through the Eyes of Another: A Medium’s Guide to Creating Heaven on Earth by Encountering Your Life Review Now.
