What do you do after having awakened a generation to the mind-expanding possibilities within us? You write a novel, of course! Betsy Chasse, one of the co-creators of the seminal film What the Bleep Do We Know!? is out with a new book, Killing Buddha, that pokes fun at the conscious-raising movement as seen through the eyes of her main character. Or does it? The novel, over fourteen years in the m...

We all have it within us to be powerful, impactful creators. We can be successful business leaders or entrepreneurs. Or we can be meaningful mentors to our children, providing positive guidance for the next generation. Unfortunately too many of us don’t see the wisdom within us or don’t act on the passions they feel. It’s hard to live our dream lives when we don’t allow full expression of what we...

The great Buddha is credited with the idea that “the secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, nor to worry about the future, but to live the present moment wisely and earnestly.” The mysteries of how our minds affect our heath have been debated for centuries but there is ample anecdotal evidence that how we think and what we think can both prevent and cure illnesses. A...

As someone who’s raised two children to adulthood, I realize the guilt that comes with being a parent. We’re always questioning whether we’re doing the right things, providing what our children need and doing what we can to insure they’ll grow into the caring and productive people we want them to be. This past year has tested parents in a way I’m sure they never expected, having to field issues an...

This topic may be uncomfortable for some but it’s one we all will experience on day. Death. How do we approach the end of our lives? How do we deal with the fears, the pain, the anger, the regrets? Is there something than can help prepare us and ease the transition? The answer may be in our dreams. I saw this firsthand with my mother, whose dreams about her beloved father as she lay dying helped g...

I don’t know anyone who doesn’t have a bad habit they’d like to get rid of. Maybe it’s getting angry at people they love, or procrastinating instead of taking action, or something like smoking, drinking or eating too much. There’s one thing we never stop to realize. These bad traits are inherited, just like hair and eye color or facial freckles. It’s called emotional DNA and it’s a powerful an ind...

Tarot cards have been used for centuries to help predict the future and determine the best life paths to follow. Whether you read your own cards of have them read to you, they can provide valuable insights that may have been previously hidden from you. We’re taking an exploration into the world of Tarot, how to embrace the meaning of the cards and integrate their wisdom into your life with Tarot e...

We all have rituals in our lives, things we do on a regular basis. Some we do willingly, while others we feel compelled to do by loved ones or peers. Did you ever stop to consider creating rituals that are solely for your benefit? Not only is it possible, it’s beneficial to your health, your future and, yes, your dream life. We discuss the role of rituals with Rachel S. Heslin, author of the book...

How did you sleep last night? Did you remember your dreams? I hope so. As you know, this is the place to explore the meaning of your dreams and to answer that all-important question: Why are our dreams worth exploring? A simple answer is that they can be life changing, in the most empowering way possible. I’ve told the story before of how one simple dream turned the course of my life to where I am...

I don’t know about you, but I struggled with a deep lack of self-esteem for most of my life. I beat myself up constantly, and any words of praise or encouragement I received usually fell on my deaf ears. So I sympathize with anyone who, for whatever reason, can’t feel a great sense of self-love in their hearts. Besides the mental anguish that accompanies this feeling, self-hatred can manifest in a...

We speak often on this show about the powerful effect dreams can have on our waking lives. They give us spectacular, sometimes scary images, epic stories and reflections that can give us guidance and insights. For a growing number of people they offer even more—an ability to control those nighttime thoughts. This is called lucid dreaming and it’s a technique that can be learned. Where do lucid dre...

Wouldn’t it be nice to be able to gaze into a crystal ball and know what the future holds for us? I know a lot of us were caught off guard by the events of last year and were filled with tons of anguish and worry as a result. Would we have acted differently if we knew what was going to befall us? Well, the truth is, some of us did know. Or at least, knew that the year would be filled with much unc...

It happens to a lot of us this time of year. While we see others around us or on TV singing carols or delighting in opening presents, we feel a sense of anxiety. We want to the holidays to be a happy time but something inside us is telling us no. We feel alone, like we’re missing out on the joy of the season that everyone else is experiencing. These emotions may pass with the turning of the calend...

Wouldn’t it be nice to have a way to control stress and anxiety, recover from injury and maintain wellness at your fingertips? Well, we do. It’s the Japanese healing modality Reiki. The word Reiki comes from the Japanese “Rei”, which means universal life, and “Ki”, which means energy. That’s right. Reiki uses energy to promote a positive state of health. We discuss all aspects of Reiki with expert...

We humans can be awfully cruel. We place value and judgment on people who don’t fit into the general category of ‘normal.’ We call them names, shame them, make them feel our scorn or simply ignore them as if they’re not important enough for our attention. Over the years we’ve strived to make amends for our narrow mindedness. If not in a universal sense, more people now than ever show acceptance of...

Do you ever experience déjà vu? Do you ever do something you’ve never done before and can’t figure out how you know how to do it? Do you have a phobia and have no idea where it came from? The answers to those questions may come from a surprising source: a past life. If that sounds hard to believe, you might change your mind after listening to my guest on this episode of Dream Power Radio. Wendy Ro...

Yes, this is my 100th podcast and you’re invited to join in the celebration. It’s been my pleasure to introduce you to all aspects of dream work and all my guests whom have shared their expertise and advice on how you can empower yourself to live the life of your dreams. I can’t think of anyone I’d rather have as my guest for this momentous occasion than Dr. Dream herself, Kelly Sullivan Walden. K...

Have you ever looked in the mirror in dismay at the wrinkles on your face and wondered if you’ll ever feel beautiful again. Do gray hairs on your head make you think the best years of your life are over? It doesn’t have to be this way. Life after fifty can be the most rewarding time of your life if you’re able to express the beauty and worthiness inside you. That’s the message of my guest, coach,...

The changes we have lived through over these last months have revealed some truths we probably all took for granted. Not only do we crave connection with others, we need that physical association as well. No one knows this more than the internationally recognized therapist, author and speaker, Edie Weinstein. Known as the Hug Mobster, Love Ambassador and Bliss Mistress, Edie has dedicated her life...

Some people start off life from third base. The advantages they’re given by coming from great homes with loving parents makes the odds of their finding success as they grow up pretty good. Then there are those who are born with three strikes and appear destined to lives of misery and despair. Yet, more often than not, our early beginnings don’t necessarily predict success or failure. It’s how we h...

The death of a loved one is the greatest heartaches we ever have to face. For many who have suffered a loss this year as a result of Covid-19, it’s been made even crueler because of the inability to actually be with that person in those last waking hours. And it’s said that the worst fear many people have is the fear of dying alone. What if we had a second chance to say that last goodbye? What if...

Who among us doesn’t remember the story of how Joseph interpreted the Pharaoh’s dreams? But did you know that’s just one of the many instances of dreams appearing in Jewish lore? Actually, dreams are an integral part of the mystical teachings of all of the major religions. In Judaism they show up in the Kaballah, the school of thought that seeks to explain the mysteries of life. We take a deep div...

What is the one thing that you need to make your dream life complete? A soul mate with whom you can share years filled with unconditional love and joy. What is often the hardest thing to find? That’s right. A soul mate. Too often, though, years are spent wasting time looking in the wrong places and often settling for someone out of fear of remaining lonely. Finding your true love may be hard but n...

It’s a sad truth that bad things happen to good people. Relationships fail. Loved ones die. Businesses and jobs collapse. We often can’t prevent these events. But we can handle them with more grace and inner peace when we react to them not from fear but from love. It’s not easy to do this, I realize, which is why we’re fortunate to have guides to lead us to our better selves. James Redfield is the...

Dreams never fail to surprise me. Case in point. I’ve read about and talked about all aspects of dreamwork: nightmares, precognitive dreams, healing dreams, lucid dreaming and the like. But I’d never before heard of my guest this week, Carol Oschmann’s unique gift: Dreaming for other people. That’s right. Carol takes the concerns of people, dreams about them and carries the messages she receives b...
