Energy Stew - Our bodies reveal our psyche - 06/22/13

Are we paying enough attention to what our bodies are telling us?  What can our bodies tell us about our psyche?  David Bedrick is teaching a workshop on identifying different ailments with different psychosomatic conditions.  He was a recent guest on Energy Stew to talk about his book "Talking Back to Dr. Phil" and he's a Jungian psychologist.  In this interview, he'll talk about our body parts and their relationship to our emotions.  Be sure to tune in and learn more how you can understand yourself better through the language of your body.

Energy Stew - How to quickly sooth your soul - 06/15/13

Do you need to sooth your soul?  Sometimes we need a quick fix and now we can learn from a book full of mini-meditations.  How about 20 seconds or even 2 minutes?  I'm interviewing Cindy Griffith-Bennett the author of "Soul Soothers" who has compiled a large amount of special meditations to quickly quiet us down and help us get centered.

Energy Stew - Using Universal tools for discovery - 06/08/13

Being intuitive is a great responsibility both within and without.  We first need to trust the information and then learn how to communicate it understandably and valuably.   My guest, Sue Frederick has learned to do that and helps people find their way both through intuition and numerology.  (You might also be interested in my previous shows with Alexander Dunlop about using playing cards for self-knowledge.)  Sue has written two books that includes showing people how to find their own way with numbers "I See Your Dream Job" and "I See Your Soul Mate".  Join Sue and I for a discussion on working with these Universal tools.

Energy Stew - Are you resilient enough? - 05/25/13

Energy Stew - The Kabbalah Center and reincarnation - 05/18/13

The International Kabbalah Center is often identified as the spiritual arm of Judaism and is perhaps the best known offering of Kabbalah teaching to the general public.

The Kabbalah itself is thousands of years old and best known through the Zohar.  The work of Isaac Luria, from the sixteenth century, is also a foundation of modern kabbalah teaching.

I'm interviewing Karen Berg, the co-founder and co-director of the center.  We'll be discussing her new book, ...to be continued..., reincarnation and the purpose of our lives.

I think you'll be fascinated by the teachings of the center which are based on the writings of the originators of Kabbalah hundreds of years ago.  The idea of reincarnation isn't currently very popular among organized religions.

Energy Stew - Can one super food make the difference? - 05/11/13

Eating well to take care of our health has gotten very complicated as it's hard to trust so many foods in the marketplace these days.  We're also bombarded with the greatest new nutraceuticals that we "shouldn't do without".  How can we make the smartest choices? I'm interviewing Roland Thomas, a naturapathic doctor who runs the blog Quantum Leap Wellness and is the owner of bioage.com.  We'll be talking about superfoods and the ability to get a complex spectrum of nutrients from particular live foods. Let's take the mystery out of it all and this show will help you simplify and clarify.

Energy Stew - What was your role in "The Wizard of Oz"? - 05/04/13

We've all loved "The Wizard of Oz" and so many of us remember its great story and characters.  Now, Jean Houston, the renowned philosopher and visionary thinker, has written a new book, "The Wizard of Us", that analyzes the story in relation to our personal journeys.  She's a powerful writer and the book is an opportunity to be inspired by all the characters of the Oz story.

Energy Stew - Talking Back to Dr. Phil - 04/19/13

Dr. Phil plays to the crowds.  He solves problems using classical psychology to mollify and palliate them.  His resolutions often lead to shame and guilt and can shut people down without finding the deeper needs that should be addressed. I'm interviewing David Bedrick who wrote the book "Talking Back to Dr. Phil, Alternatives to Mainstream Psychology".  Listen in to appreciate the deeper meaning of our struggles and learn how we can resolve them through love, compassion and understanding.
