Tuesday Jun 29, 2021
Tuesday Jun 29, 2021
EFT.
Emotional Freedom Technique.

Now, Dr Peta Stapleton takes it to the next level.
Key Points From the Interview.
How EFT has been researched and is looking more miraculous than ever.
How gene expression (the difference between being ill and not being ill) can change dramatically.
How the conservative medical establishment were astonished!
How war veterans have benefited, how symptoms have not returned, and how their genes agree!

51 Ceri Ashe - Bipolar. The Ups and Downs
Tuesday Jun 08, 2021
Tuesday Jun 08, 2021
** CONTAINS FRANK DISCUSSION OF BIPOLAR DISORDER, SUICIDE AND RECREATIONAL DRUGS THAT MAY BE TRIGGERING**
Bipolar. Most of us have heard the word, but not all of us have experienced it. Welcome to a frank, spirited and funny discussion with the conditions articulated from personal and present experience - learn more about it, and how to understand someone who suffers from it better. Key points from the interview: How Ceri found freedom and manages her condition. A perversely funny reason that Bipolar is hard to diagnose. How the brain needs love and care, just like any other vital organ. Incredible creativity side by side with this misunderstood condition. How medication is important - some of the time.

50 Shauna Cummins - Wishcraft & mind massaging
Tuesday Jun 01, 2021
Tuesday Jun 01, 2021
Trigger warning: This podcast has mentions OCD, CPTSD, parental death, childhood illness and hospitalisation, pandemic and mental health.
When you think of hypnosis, what do you think of? People clucking like a chicken on a stage with all their mates laughing at them? Me too! But not after this fascinating chat with Shauna. Oh no, this Woman will teach you how to make your mind work for you, not against you. That when you tap into what you appreciate about yourself and learn the art of the Wishcraft, you really can turn wishes into actions and make them a reality.
We talk about how Shauna went from being burnt out working in the fashion and publishing industry to finding more meaning and purpose in her life through hypnosis and self-directed neuroplasticity. How through tapping into and reclaiming our childlike states we can use fantasy and imagination to transcend difficult experiences and build a better future for us all.
Key points from the conversation:
Suspending disbelief - the difference between having a somatic experience whilst watching a movie (ie: don’t go up those stairs!!) and watching a behind the scenes where you are aware that it’s not real.
How the brain doesn’t know the difference between something we vividly imagine and something that is real.
How you can work through childhood trauma and shame using the medicine of the imagination.
How building compassion can help us embrace more positivity to stop us from getting stuck in negativity bias.
Being a sceptic and how to find balance the spiritual world and being a grounded, present human being.
How water was believed to be sacred and the gods lived in it which is how wishing wells in the UK were created. A way to communicate with the gods.
Can you be too spiritual? Does spirituality give you a judgement and empathy bypass?
Shauna Cummins is a certified Clinical Hypnosis Practitioner with a private practice in New York, author of Wishcraft (2021), holder of ceremonies, multi-disciplinary artist and founder of Divine Feminine School of Hypnosis and Mind Massage Hotline.
She is the resident event hypnotist at The Four Seasons Hotel New York Downton and regularly teaches workshops and conducts ceremonies in NYC and abroad. She also creates hypnotic sound art and installations. Her work has been featured at various wellbeing centres, galleries, events and publications across the globe.
The method she developed and works with is called Wishcraft™. Wishcraft is self-hypnosis that teaches the art of well-wishing as a practice for changing thought patterns and beliefs, turning wishes into action. She currently lives in the woods in a magical healing house with three wishing wells in upstate New York.

48 Sue Hunt - Designing a Non Binary World
Tuesday May 25, 2021
Tuesday May 25, 2021
Whether we like it or not the current World model is pretty binary. Whether we look at it from the perspective of gender or right and wrong, healthy and unhealthy, healed and unhealed. Everything has a polar opposite, or does it?
In this episode, Rachael speaks with Sue Hunt, author of Transitory Nature. Sue is looking at the World through a new non-binary lens. Maybe things aren't as black and white as they seem, maybe we can live in the grey areas.
Sue Hunt is a radical Buddhist and has been sharing public teachings on spirituality, living ethics, and the intersectionality of being human, for the past 15 years, all over the US and overseas. Sue just released her first book, Transitory Nature: Breaking Binaries for Integrated Being, in April 2021. With her life partner Dan, she is a co-founder of Live Lightly and Live Lightly Supplements. She is also co-author of The Sister Body Oracle Deck. She lives in Taos, New Mexico. Find her at www.suehunt.com.
Key Points From the Interview:
Radical Freedom- what it means, and how the approach needs to be gentle.
Why the WTF moment is a doorway to spirituality! (Maybe WTF could mean "Wow, That's Freedom?!!")
What a Non Binary World view really means and how it is virtually the opposite of what the prevailing worldview is (but we do seem to be edging in the right direction!)

45 Mark White - An Attitude of Gratitude
Saturday May 22, 2021
Saturday May 22, 2021
**Contains frank talk of mental health & addiction issues that may be triggering to some people**
Mark White has held many titles over the years: father, husband, son, brother, CEO/founder, ideas man, but above all, he is a firm believer in not attaching himself to any particular label: “I am a human being first and what comes with that is my expectation around how I will be able to take on the different roles life has presented me and where my curiosity will continue to lead me.”Mark is the founder of a company called Your Town which has live “community up” initiatives/campaigns across various UK towns, including Your Town Runners. In addition to launching Run Grateful, he recently created and founded MEUS, which is a platform to reimagine men’s health in order to support them physically, mentally, and spiritually. In 2019, Mark was voted in the top 15 social entrepreneurs in the UK by Redbull.To keep things interesting, Mark is a children’s book author, having released Dumbleby Forest - centred around a world where children send their dunnies when they are ready to let them go.
Key points from the interview:
How Mark started a movement for mens health- physical, mental, emotional and spiritual during lockdown, and how fast it has grown. 60 countries!
How gratitude and movement are connected- or if they are weren't they are now.
How gratitude and the positive emotions renew, regenerate and are darn good for you!
How there is science based evidence for this
The funniest definition of "Woo Woo" that you almost definitely will ethically steal and use in conversation!
