Human Design provides a new way to see ourselves and do a better job at being ourselves - Energy Stew Interview with ReGina Concotelli – 08.21.15

Human Design provides a new way to see ourselves and do a better job at being ourselves. Understanding the design chart of important people in our lives helps us appreciate their unique qualities better and also helps us be more understanding of their weaknesses (we all have them). 

We're each designed to have special gifts and different kinds of personality traits.  They can be extremely different from our own yet we try so hard to find agreement.

Again, I'm speaking with ReGina Concotelli, another Human Design analyst, as I am.  We'll look at the many ways Human Design reveals people so we can see how the traits can work in relationships.

Tune in to better understand your relationships.

Fear pervades the workplace as the culture relies on it for stimulation - Energy Stew Interview with Joan Kingsley - 08.14.15

Fear is such an easy tool to use.  Just scare people enough to motivate them and they'll become slaves to save themselves.

That might be true but it doesn't mean they'll do more than just try to hold onto their jobs.  Morale will take a beating and all kinds of business problems will result.

Neuroscience has identified the behaviors that best kindle success.  Tune into this show with one of the authors of "The Fear-Free Organization", Joan Kingsley, to find out how business environments can be transformed.

Remember that Siddhartha left his wife and newborn son behind on his quest for enlightenment - Energy Stew interview with Samuel Shem - 08.07.15

Few people think about what happened at home after Siddhartha left for a life to explore suffering and eventually come into realization.  His wife, Princess Yasodhara, had just given birth the day before and felt totally lost. 

Siddhartha's stepmother Pajapati (the sister of Siddhartha's birth mother who died in child birth) was there to build a support group.

This book, "The Buddha's Wife, The Path of Awakening Together" by Janet Surrey and her husband Samuel Shem, builds a rich story derived from the historical documents of the time. We're in a time now when our spiritual paths must join more together to evolve.  Princess Yasodhara also needed a spiritual community to hold her suffering rather than go off on a solo retreat as her husband did.

This is a wonderful book about rising above our suffering through listening, sharing and holding compassion together.  A spiritual community is very empowering and is the path to "awakening together".

Tantra is an eastern understanding of living in wholeness - Energy Stew interview with Marc Allen – 07.31.15

Marc Allen is my guest who has written the book "Tantra for the West".  It's a wonderful book to help live in the deeper truths of life.  It's a lot easier when you have greater awareness and tools to handle life's challenges and be able to make better choices.

This interview can really help travel through life better.

Tools to heal troubled feelings - Energy Stew interview with Alka Dhillon - 07.24.15

Alka Dhillon has learned to manage her fears and weaknesses by using special modalities to enhance her life.  She addresses many of these struggles in her book "The OM Factor" and provides the fixes for each.

Although she says the book is "a woman's spiritual guide to leadership", I feel we can all use it's guidance to empower ourselves and create fulfillment.  There are so many wonderful understandings and tools throughout it.

I've asked my wife, Deborah Roth, to co-host with me since the book firstly addresses women and she is on her own powerful spiritual path.

Do you Quantum Think your decisions? - Energy Stew interview with Dianne Collins - 07.17.14

In these times, we need to think differently.  How do we do that?

Perhaps we can use the quantum qualities of our brains.  Let's find out more about that.

Dianne Collins is the author of "Do You Quantum Think?" and is helping us live smarter in these evolving times.

Our brains are certainly capable of functioning better when we can learn to tap in to their deeper accesses and use new ways of thinking.

Tune in to this enlightening show and find out how to maximize your mind.

What is your real story? - Energy Stew interview with Kim Schneiderman - 07.10.15

Is your ego too involved in your story to really see it?  How many choices in life does your story give you?

Maybe you need some fresh eyes to really see who you are and appreciate even more about yourself.Kim Schneiderman's new book, "Step Out of Your Story", is an opportunity to see yourself in the third person.

She offers guided writing exercises to look at who you are and what your story is about.  They key is to refer to yourself as a he or she so you can be less passionate and have a better observer's eye.

In reading her book, I was very inspired to start writing and see what I would say about myself.  She really helps guide the subject matter so you don't have to be at a loss for words.

Tune into this intriguing interview and maybe it will help bring your story into more focus.

What has your dog told you lately? - Energy Stew interview with Tim Link - 07.03.15

Dogs and cats have more to say than we think.  We might believe they understand a lot but, even then, we sell them short.

The entire animal world knows how to communicate with each other.  Us humans generally just use our 5 senses and we think our pets are limited to them also but they work on intuitive levels we don't know about.

Tim Link, the author of "Talking with Dogs and Cats", has learned how to communicate at these deeper levels and has a lot to teach us about how to do that too.  

Life with pets can change dramatically once we know how to communicate in more effective ways. It's not about loving them more but rather having more fun and opportunities living with them.

 

Are your relationships in the cards? - Energy Stew interview withAlexander Dunlop - 06.26.15

We are each born into a particular birth card based on our date of birth.  Alexander Dunlop, a card expert, has been on a number of Energy Stew shows and I've studied the cards so we are both very enthusiastic about how accurate and meaningful they are in our lives.

In this show, he'll be discussing how the cards reveal our love language and how they match up with the people we are close to.  You can find your birth card ahead of listening to the show if you go tospiritualnutrition.org and you'll see where to input your birth date.

Here's an earlier show with Alexander when he describes the purpose of each card in the deck.

Powerful Aboriginal healing stories - Energy Stew interview with Robbie Holz - 06.19.15

Some remote tribes have amazing healing abilities.

Robbie and Gary Holz each separately had this experience and it was life changing.  Gary was given only 6 months to live with MS and traveled there in his wheel chair with no feeling below his neck.  He was able to walk off the airplane when he got home and then lived another 12 years.

He was empowered to become a charismatic healer during his remaining years.  Afterward, his wife Robbie was invited to the outback for her own revelations and has written the book, "Aboriginal Secrets of Awakening".
