The Aware Show

We watch the news of war, the pandemic, shootings, and a world in crisis. How can those of us who are sensitive know where to turn? Today’s guest is Cyndi Dale, best-selling author and one of the world’s foremost intuitive energy healers. Cyndi teaches that all of our trauma resides in our lesser-known infra-low brain waves and explains about virtual light.  She talks about brain waves which can heal deep pain and suffering. She and Lisa discuss the concept of “Absolute Light” which scientists say pre-existed the Big Bang. Cyndi describes an experience she had in the pure white light during this extraordinary event. We are living in a time of limitless potential. If we can have a positive thought, we can learn to navigate these times. She reminds us that no matter what, we are always connected to Source. Through hope and love, we can think about possibilities and take action to change.  Info about Cyndi and an upcoming course: CyndiDale.com and  TheAwareShow.com/light

In this interview, which originally aired the day following the inauguration of President Barack Obama, noted motivational speaker Les Brown talks with Lisa about the changing pulse of the nation, our newest President, and the meaning of optimism and unity.  Even when going through a rough time, Les reminds us in his comical and exuberant style, to always stay positive. He talks about getting fired and how we can all expand our talents. He shares his personal story of trials and tribulations, including making millions, and then losing a home he bought for his mother due to foreclosure and misinterpreted paperwork. He exudes his wisdom and explains how deep shifts can happen within. He says to make lasting change, we must get grounded, have clear thinking, focus our energy and intent, and have deep gratitude. If you are experiencing a tough time,  find like-minded and like-hearted people and ask for help. Be active, give of yourself; volunteer if you have the time. As a renowned public speaker, author, and television personality, Les has risen to national prominence by delivering a high energy message which tells people how to shake off mediocrity and live up to their greatness. It is a message Les Brown has learned from his own life and one he is helping others apply to their lives. Info: LesBrown.com

How can we find meaning in life when so many events today are so tragic? With wars, inflation, the pandemic, climate change, and much more, what is happening with our world view? How can we find new thought processes to look at these crises?  Our guest today, Dominican Friar Matthew Fox was expelled from the Catholic Church because of his controversial views. He was looking at revisiting the concept of Creation Spirituality and how we may see “Original Blessing” rather than “Original Sin.”  As a spiritual theologian, an Episcopal priest, and an activist for gender justice and eco-justice, Matthew deeply discusses how Wisdom is Feminine and it is a time of the return of the Divine Feminine. He explains how the patriarchy crushed feminine wisdom. But that is changing. We are experiencing the dark night of our species – but there is so much hope. We are brilliant humans, with new technologies, and now humans have a greater chance of awakening than ever before. Because of mass media, and wars being televised, more people are connected and see the senseless suffering and offer help to those in need. Through Creation Spirituality, we “feel” more and we know that these are not just numbers, but actual human beings that are part of our human family on Earth. The reality of war humanizes it, as we see it. Mother Earth is also at war – the climate crisis is so severe that we must learn how our actions influence this change. Matthew suggests that we can refer to the mystics to gain wisdom. We must become even more compassionate so we may help and connect with one another. We cannot fall into despair. We cannot give up. The light can return. 

Matthew has written 37 books that have been translated more than 70 times. Among them are “Original Blessing,” “The Coming of the Cosmic Christ,” and his newest collection of “Essential Writings on Creation Spirituality.”  He has contributed much to the rediscovery of Hildegard of Bingen, Meister Eckhart, and Thomas Aquinas as pre-modern mystics and prophets. He holds a doctorate in the history and theology of spirituality. As the founder of the University of Creation Spirituality in CA, he conducts dozens of workshops each year and is a visiting scholar at the Academy for the Love of Learning. By joining the Episcopal church more than 20 years ago, Fox has been working with young people to reinvent forms of worship by bringing elements of rave such as dance, djs, and more into the Western Liturgy.  The “Cosmic Mass” has been celebrated more than 100 times in dozens of cities in North America.  Info: MatthewFox.org

Lisa continues her conversation today with guests Esther and Jerry Hicks, as Esther dialogs with a group of spiritual teachers who call themselves Abraham. How can you journey between sickness and wellness, poverty to abundance, stress to peace? Would you like to learn answers and perspectives to some of life’s most pressing questions? Abraham offers wisdom and clarity about universal laws. Together they discuss how to look at these situations from a contrasting view that causes us to reach new perspectives. Abraham knows we are leading-edge creators, and they teach us how to ask questions (whether personal or universal) and receive results. They explain how we have an inner GPS system which can guide our way. Where are you now and where do you want to be? There is vibrational relativity toward where you want to be. Abraham discusses how perfect our inner guidance systems truly are and how we are closer than ever by reaching for the best-feeling thought that we can find. That is the key.  Abraham continues to offer answers and inspiration to these topics today. The teachings of Abraham help you learn how to manifest your desires so that you’re living the joyous and fulfilling life you deserve. They invite us to make peace with where we are and to know that everything is right on track.  This is Part 2 of the interview.  Info:  www.abraham-hicks.com

 Why does self-healing work for some, but not all? When did we decide that the ability to heal ourselves lies in the hands of others? Today’s guest, Dr Lissa Rankin, talks about her brand-new book, “Sacred Medicine: A Doctor's Quest to Unravel the Mysteries of Healing.” She is a traditional medical doctor who has studied extensively with Indigenous people, as well as her study of trauma and recovery. Almost everyone has been traumatized at some point, whether a major traumatic event or through a series of smaller traumatic, stressful moments. Dr Rankin has specifically studied Internal Family Systems, as a way to resolve inner polarization. She has developed a method of teaching trauma-informed medicine and is currently teaching healthcare practitioners. Doctors do not typically treat our many wounded parts, yet our bodies know what to do, if given a chance. So much is present in our collective trauma—political instability, the pandemic, racism, the economy, and much more. Dr Rankin offers ideas of how to begin to heal, as an individual and with healthcare providers working in conjunction. This is Part 1 of the interview.  Info: LissaRankin.com
