What's Arising?

In this podcast I share a sequence of 3 dreams that seemed very prophetic about world changes. The first two dreams confirmed what I sense as unavoidable and difficult, dystopian times ahead. In the third dream, I was shown the birth of a new world, filled with hope and possibility that is already being birthed amongst the chaos and control. Let's give our attention and affection tPo nurturing...

AI could increase our experience of separation and suffering, or it could help connect, unite and free us. Will AI become a weapon or a wonder? There is potential for both. But AI is not actually the problem. We are. Do we have the capacity to change? Cohering Community Program Link

In this podcast, from personal experience, I talk about the sense of 'Home'. Many people in our world today feel lost. Many others are homeless, or their physical place of home is being uprooted. Others don't feel at home in this world. Everyone has a longing for 'Home' at some level, and this draws us towards the state of Home or Unity, Oneness, Unconditional Love and 'Sou...

We live in an amazing time where our access to vast knowledge and information is right at our fingertips and expanding at exponential rates, especially now with the emergence of AI. This has come with tremendous benefits for individuals and humanity, but is there a 'dark side'? Can the accumulation of knowledge be limiting our capacity to access wisdom and truth? In this podcast, I'll...

Slowly, surely, the truth about many things is now being exposed. We’re finding out that we’ve each been ‘betrayed’ on many levels. This is propelling humanity into ever larger waves of shock, anger, denial, and depression. These shock-waves, also fuelled by unprocessed past grief, are growing in intensity and threaten to destroy everything in their path. In this podcast, I look at what is and wil...

In this podcast, I explore the practice of asking, “What is true?” or “Is this true?” In the coming years, this may be one of the most important questions to ask yourself. We already live in a world where it is difficult to know what is true. Misinformation, fake news, propaganda, censorship, and other corruptions will only expand in the era of AI, so the truth will get harder and harder to detect...

What would FLOW look like or feel like for you? What if you could anticipate what was on the horizon of your life and rather than struggle or push to accomplish your goals, you flowed towards them? In this podcast, I invite you to ANTICIPATE what ‘wants’ to happen FOR you in 2024, find your stream, and flow with it. Why struggle to swim upstream or in the ‘wrong’ stream when LIFE is ready to show...

Synchronicity and 'flow' states are among the most powerful, life affirming experiences we can have. They surprise us and delight us. They give us hope and demonstrate that we are truly not alone in this world. Through synchronicity we get a deep sense that there is a benevolent force guiding us into our best life - if we are willing let go of our attachments, open up to being surprised, t...

What is pain? From where does it arise? How can you/we bring an end to pain? Studies show that chronic pain (physical, emotional, mental and spiritual) is in increasing in our world. Around 20 percent of people in North America say they have chronic pain. 1 in 8 suffer from some kind of emotional/mental challenges including anxiety, loneliness and depression. Pain is at epidemic proportions. In th...

This episode has a similar theme to the last one on "Ending All War" but it seems to be arising again and again, so perhaps it is worth repeating in another way. Resolving conflict is generally difficult. Emotions are highly charged. The risk of being hurt or hurting the other is high. Rather than resolving conflict with love, compassion and understanding, it becomes more about whether w...

This podcast focuses on shadow-work and why shadow integration is essential if we are going to effectively navigate and survive the difficult times arising in our world. The dangerous times ahead of us also represent an opportunity for a great leap in human consciousness. There is the potential to wake up and begin co-creating a world without war; a world with lasting peace. But there is work to d...

Any change, including positive change, can kick in a grief cycle because in order for the new to come in, something needs to be let go. Something is lost. With the rapid and accelerating change and disruption in our world today, in order to stay in balance and retain our sanity, we all need to get good at grief. The challenge is that many people avoid or don't know how to deeply grieve, and le...

In this podcast, I talk about the increasing levels of distrust throughout our society with the accompanying reactions of increasing control, conflict, anxiety, fear, censorship, and surveillance. Without trust, our relationships, communities, institutions and social systems disintegrate or become rigid. Without self-trust we get stuck; closing down our hearts and minds. But what can we actually t...

In this podcast, I talk about evil arising. Is evil more prevalent in our world today? Has the collective consciousness somehow been 'possessed' by evil entities? Is shadow arising? I share some personal experiences with encountering and releasing entity possession and contrast entity possession with Shadow. Although shadow can feel or look like evil, it is different and dealt with entirel...

The nature of reality and the nature of nature is vibration, waves. As a wave, everything, including our bodies are a process/vibration/movement rather than a 'thing'. All waves have peaks and valleys, but they are one whole process; undivided. This is the nature of waves. Emotions are waves with interdependent peaks and valleys. While we have little control over the waves of emotions or c...

Wars are arising everywhere. The war for land, resources, or to exist. There is the war against drugs, crime, disease, poverty, CO2, misinformation. These outer wars are all symptoms of the greater unconscious war we are waging against parts of the self, a persistent inner war which cannot be resolved "out there" until we surrender the inner war and integrate the shadow. Here there is pe...

In this podcast, I reflect on the present and unavoidable descent of humanity into a "Dark Night of the Soul." On the other side of this dark night is the potential for a great leap in human consciousness - a great light arising from the ashes. However, to actualize this potential, we need to let go of and forgive our old stories of separation. We can each assist humanity in pulling out...

What if life was actually a dream? What if we realized that WE ARE THE DREAMER and can then consciously, rather then unconsciously, co-create our human experience? Our sleeping dreams, filled with horrific to joyful experiences, seem real when we are having them, but when we wake up, we realize they never happened. Many people have also experienced being lucid inside their sleeping dreams, using t...

With the current state of the world with a convergence of existential threats to our way of life, what can we do? How do we find peace within ourselves and with each other. This podcast suggests that in the words of Gandhi, we can 'Be The Change that we want to see in the world'. When and as we get more connected with the essence of who we are in our wholeness, life will show us the way fo...

This is an brief, introductory 'trailer' and welcome to the What's Arising podcast. You'll get to know a little about me, Richard Schultz and my purpose and intentions for the podcast. This podcast is about the practice of opening our hearts and minds to what is arising in life, allowing the process of life to guide us into love, freedom, peace and joy.
