What Is Consciousness?

We all experience consciousness. But, can any of us be sure of what it is, where it comes from, and where it goes?Philosophers and scientists have wrestled with this question for hundreds of years. It's confused some so much that they've thrown up their hands and declared consciousness is an illusion. Ironic since the only thing we know for sure is that we are conscious, everything and anything else could be an illusion. Our brains filter out most of what is around us. They interpret everything else and often give us false information.In this episode, I give my thoughts on what consciousness is.

Egyptian NDE UNVEILS Psychic Powers! Amirah Hall’s ASTONISHING Near-Death Story

I've never heard a Near Death Experience quite like Amirah Hall's. Of course, every NDE is different, as I believe they are tailored for the individual.Rev. Amirah Hall, M.Msc. blends “sacred with science” and has been on a four-decade journey of exploring secrets to manifesting and healing. She is a gifted clairvoyant, spirit medium, channel, and quantum healing pioneer. Amirah's spiritual awakening was triggered after her father’s death, divorce, and life-threatening autoimmune disease, all within six months. It was further amplified with a near-death experience while traveling in Egypt when her gifts of psychic vision, channeling, and mediumship opened up. Amirah has a reputation as a world-class psychic, mystic, and mentor with the honor of working with an international client list, including Dubai Royals. Amirah has her master’s in metaphysical science and is an ordained Minister dedicated to providing spiritual tools and guidance to seekers going through their ascension process, reaching higher levels of awareness and healing.🔗 https://www.amirahhall.comShe's the author of 6 books, including Manifesting Miracles 101, LOVE UP Your Life, and The Essential Guide To Spiritual Awakening. The High Vibe Coloring BookVisit the Grief 2 Growth store for FREE items as well as other tools to help you along your journey:Guided MeditationsMy book GEMS of Healing (signed copy)My Oracle deck to help you connect with your loved onesMini-coursesMini-guidesCheck it out at https://grief2growth.com/store Grief doesn’t follow stages, timelines, or rules.If you’ve ever wondered, “Am I doing this right?”—you’re not alone.That’s why I created the Grief Check-In.

What's Sabotaging You Is Coming From Within

I've been training in Positive Intelligence for several months. In the program, we learn about "saboteurs", the voices in our heads that tell us that we aren't good enough, that our circumstances aren't good enough, and more self-destructive things.This short bonus episode is some of the observations I made in recent daily life about how insidious these saboteurs are. I hope it helps you begin to identify how your saboteurs are lying to you and holding you back.Visit the Grief 2 Growth store for FREE items as well as other tools to help you along your journey:Guided MeditationsMy book GEMS of Healing (signed copy)My Oracle deck to help you connect with your loved onesMini-coursesMini-guidesCheck it out at https://grief2growth.com/store This deck is a labor of love.

TURNING TRAUMA INTO SUPERPOWER: Steven Twohig’s Journey Through Shadow Work and Transformation!

Steven is a fascinating man who has turned early trauma into his superpower. Steven and I discussed how we all must heal from wounds and the benefit of doing our shadow work. Founder of Mastering Change, Steven Twohig, has committed himself to mastering the art of transformation. While seeking to heal from trauma inflicted while just a toddler, Steven was introduced to the practice of shadow work in April of 2000, leading to a lifelong study and what he believes is a path to enlightenment.Steven spent a decade working for and studying under the world's leading business and life strategist, Tony Robbins. He wanted to blend shadow work with business strategy, integration, and implementation. Tony commissioned him to interview over 10,000 business leaders worldwide to determine what made them successful and help thousands transform their businesses to be more productive and strategic.Currently, he is studying the impact of shadow work on psychedelic integration. He focuses on bridging the gap between traditional plant medicine and the western mind, intending to bring the insights and innovation that plantmedicine provides to everyone who wants more out of their lives. He believes we are finally on the cusp of proper mental healthcare, which will spur global innovation.He is an international speaker and has traveled worldwide, teaching a blend of strategy, shadow work, and spirituality. He has extensive study in mindfulness, mindset, business optimization, shadow work and facilitation, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), hypnotherapy, group dynamics, peak performance, leadership dynamics, and unconscious communication.Through this work, he has formulated a specific framework for understanding the human experience and is currently training other guides to spread the practice.https://www.MasteringChange.comVisit the Grief 2 Growth store for FREE items as well as other tools to help you along your journey:Guided MeditationsMy book GEMS of Healing (signed copy)My Oracle deck to help you connect with your loved onesMini-coursesMini-guidesCheck it out at https://grief2growth.com/store Grief doesn’t follow stages, timelines, or rules.If you’ve ever wondered, “Am I doing this right?”—you’re not alone.That’s why I created the Grief Check-In.
