Soul Alignment and Conscious Creation
— The superconscious is so effing powerful that when accessed can tag energy in the field and release the unwanted charge or aspect that is causing resistance to the end result. We can tag, treat, and simply let it release out of the energy field. So powerful! We are focused on the end result, so this is not a form of problem solving, it is conscious creation! You are not broken, you do not need fixing. Period. All of the resistance that has been created for you may have served a purpose at one time as was a form of self-preservation and the path of "least resistance." However, we do not need to continue creating it. Everything comes down to structure, identity, and choosing something else. What is the outcome of this recode process you might ask? Releasing resistance will allow you to take inspired action and the next step towards your end results. This process may take several recodes to shift your structure to the choice or simply one will allow you to move forward-- wherever you are is perfect. This is life changing work!

Moving Forward & Embracing Life After Loss
— "Simple pleasures, or even times of the purest happiness imaginable, juxtaposed against moments of almost indescribable pain. As I gaze across the table at my husband and my surviving son, I know with absolute certainty that the three of us, each in our own way, are moving forward and embracing life, which is what I truly believe Kieran would have wanted us to do. Valeria Teles interviews Margaret Thomson — the author of "The World Looks Different Now: A Memoir of Suicide, Faith, and Family." Margaret Thomson is an author and journalist whose world was forever altered the day her son Kieran took his life at the age of twenty-two. A medic in the Army, Kieran had been preparing for his first-ever deployment to Afghanistan at the time of his death, on August 28, 2010. Upon receiving the unthinkable news, Margaret and her husband Tim found themselves plunged into what can only be described as every parent's worst nightmare. Lifelong Christians, the couple held tightly to their faith, even as Margaret found herself wondering whether she, too, might someday choose to follow in the path her son had taken. In desperation, Margaret turned to writing, which had long been a constant in her life, as a means of focusing her mind and organizing her thoughts. In itself relatively simple, the act of putting pen to paper—or fingers to keyboard—served almost as a form of therapy, eventually bringing more solace than Margaret had ever thought possible. A professional journalist whose work has appeared in a variety of media outlets in the U.S. and Britain, Margaret relied on her journalistic training in her search for the deeper truths that she felt certain were lying behind her son's death. "I was determined to put on the armor of the journalist in the hope that doing so would give me at least a degree of emotional distance," Margaret says, "which was extremely foolish of me since there is, of course, nothing in the world that can protect you when it comes to dealing with your own, intensely personal loss." Margaret Thomson and her husband Tim live in the greater Nashville, Tennessee, area. Margaret is a journalist who's worked in both print and broadcasting. Her written work has appeared in a number of British and American publications while her radio reports have been heard on broadcast outlets including ABC Radio News, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and National Public Radio.

Going Beyond The Digital & Into The Spiritual
— Our future will come from connecting with ourselves and taking the action we feel drawn to. Trust yourself. I'm asking for you to express yourself in your fullest. Because that's what I and the world need. You to be yourself. It is time to take full responsibility for your actions and become curious about the world, more than ever before. It is time to take your life in your own hands, away from the distractions of the past. Put fear aside and let go of the anxiety that complexity can bring. It is time to upgrade yourself and allow your powers to emerge. Build resilience to resist the negative media cycle and the lure of extractive algorithms, and be aware of giving yourself too much choice or too many conveniences. Valeria Teles interviews Sini Ninkovic — the author of "Untethered: Overcome Distraction, Build Healthy Digital Habits, and Use Tech to Create a Life You Love" The average person consumes over twelve hours of media per day. Eighty-eight percent of Americans feel uneasy leaving their phone at home. It is all too common to hear that our technology has taken over our lives. But what if the problem isn't your smartphone, but just the way you're using it? After a lifelong struggle with digital dependency, Sini quit his job at Apple to live in a van and begin a long journey toward freedom from technology. But in the process, he learned that the key to inner peace was not found in removing technology from his life, but in rethinking his relationship with it. Along the way, he spoke with countless industry experts, attended intensive meditation retreats, and became a certified Digital Wellness Educator. The tools he discovered were so transformative that sharing them with the world has become his personal mission. In his groundbreaking and practical new guide to digital freedom, tech-guru-turned-wellness-instructor, Sini Ninkovic argues that there are counterintuitive mindsets and methods for transforming your relationship with technology - and your life along with it. Sini's work and mission is to help you redefine your routines, develop healthier digital habits, and live a more fulfilled life in control of your attention. It will show how your smartphone and the apps on it can captivate you, how you can "upgrade" your mind to move away from this dependency, and these tools will help you regain control over your habitual smartphone usage to create a more fulfilled future.

De-Hypnotizing Humanity From Fear & Anxiety
— Zhanna Bright realized that her premature spiritual search had created much confusion. This knowledge brought new clarity to her work and her own life. Her path crossed with many people and communities that proudly wore the "spiritual" label, adhering to all the rituals, practices and using specific terms of the "ascension process". It finally occurred to her that they were still holding onto baggage, trauma and old wounds from the past. False spirituality turned out to be just another mask, preaching "love and light". Zhanna realized that to grow spiritually we must grow in the human aspects, first and foremost. Refusing to perpetuate the cycle of the wounded healer spreading only light, she dove deep into the dark and that is where she found the gold. Zhanna surfaced with a profound understanding of personal capacity and inner power. There was no more searching for teachers outside herself, for everything she needed was within her all along. Valeria Teles interviews Zhanna Bright — a Certified Hypnotherapist, Mind-Body Health Practitioner, Educator, And Speaker Zhanna Bright is extremely passionate about her work and brings with her a unique skill set as well as intuition. She studied the physical body first and became a body work and energy work practitioner but soon realized that without adding the mind to it there can't be a complete healing and transformation. Zhanna chose to explore the deeper part of the mind - the subconscious - using Hypnosis and Hypnotherapy and the knowledge of the body she's able to tap into the deepest corners of the body-mind-soul-spirit mechanism. Hypnosis is a powerful and effective tool that works on the subconscious mind to bring about permanent life changes, ranging from behavioral, emotional, psychological, physical and spiritual changes. In addition to Hypnotherapy, Zhanna incorporates cognitive therapy, hypno-coaching, wellness education, self-awareness exercises and breath work into her sessions. One of her favorite tools is Regression, whether it is revisiting moments from early childhood for healing trauma and rewiring the mind or going to another lifetime and even on a journey beyond lifetimes.

Mindfulness & The Essentials Of Meditation
— Mindfulness is the practice of increasing your awareness of the present moment. We spend so much of our lives thinking of the past or the future and not focusing on the here and now. Mindfulness is our basic human ability to be fully present, aware of where we are, and what we're doing. By practicing mindfulness regularly this helps us to not be overly reactive or overwhelmed by what's going on around us. Mindful.org states, "whenever you bring awareness to what you're directly experiencing via your senses, or to your state of mind via your thoughts and emotions, you're being mindful. And there's growing research showing that when you train your brain to be mindful, you're actually remodeling the physical structure of your brain." Meditation also has a significant impact on the brain. The practice of meditation increases mental and physical health, will help you find more inner peace, make more meaning and purpose in your life, and increases self-awareness. Meditation is learning to sit with your mind and training it to be more open and at ease. This is a practice that when incorporated into your daily life, you will find the benefits to be extremely valuable. Valeria Teles interviews Jennifer Shapiro-Lee — a LCSW-R, Psychotherapist, Certified Mindfulness & Meditation Instructor, Mindfulness In The Workplace Trainer, And Motivational Speaker Jennifer Shapiro-Lee is the Founder and Director of a private psychotherapy group practice located in Roslyn, NY where she and her team help children, individuals, families, and couples taking a holistic approach to mental health. In addition, Jennifer leads meditation classes, therapeutic retreats, and corporate wellness events and is a motivational speaker. Jennifer has been recognized by business achievement organizations for her work and appears regularly on media outlets where she speaks about the importance of mental health awareness.

The Dance Of Wholeness
— The natural expression of our seeds of creation and is always there. The mysterious energy called the Life Force is the secret ingredient that transforms the apple seed into a flower and the flower into a fruit—or in Donna's case, an entire apple orchard. Growing requires not only sun, water, soil, and the ever-present Life Force, but it also requires—and this is most important—our patience, attention and cultivation. It requires our nurturing and our Love. You are a divine, spiritual Being on a human adventure. The divine part of you is made of the energy of Love. The purpose of your life is the expression of that energy of Love and all that is encoded within. Your life's experiences are seeded through your thoughts and beliefs. Your intuition is the lifeline between your Higher Self and your Human Self. Harnessing your power of creation occurs by taking responsibility for your "I AM" presence. The key to loving your sweet self is the radical acceptance of your wholeness. Valeria Teles interviews Donna Bond — the author of "Original Wisdom: Harness the Power of the Authentic You." At the age of 45, Donna Bond "woke up" at the top of her game. On the outside, it all looked perfect. She was working as a marketing executive, making great money, living in a beautiful home and was married to an incredible guy. On the inside, she was exhausted, depressed, unhappy and unfulfilled. All leading to a decision which she now understands as divine intervention – enrolling in the University of Santa Monica and simultaneously beginning her journey of Personal Transformation. Everything changed from the inside out. Today, she is a Soul-Centered catalyst for personal transformation. She believes when we do the work individually to trust our higher self and love our human self, the ripple effect changes the world. Donna holds a master's degree in Spiritual Psychology with an emphasis on Consciousness, Health and Healing. She invites everyone to reclaim their authentic power with her illuminating memoir of personal transformation through the lens of Spiritual Psychology.

Getting Radically Honest With Yourself
— The journey is the goal after all. And we are all on our separate journeys together. The only person in control of your timeline and outcome is you, and the only factor that determines the acceleration of your journey is how ready you are to get radically honest with yourself. Please remember, this type of energetic evolution doesn't have anything to do with anyone but you. It is only you. Valeria Teles interviews Kevin Russell — the author of "Radical Enlightenment: My Guy on the 9th Floor: A Handbook For Leveling-up Your Consciousness, Fulfillment, And Connection To Your Higher Self." Kevin Russell is a consciousness accelerator who uses energy transformation and subconscious change techniques to rewrite programs and conditioning that keep us stuck in life, providing relief from stress and trauma. As a clairvoyant/intuitive, he also channels hyper-personal directed knowing, messages, and insight to help others expand awareness, release resistance, and reconnect to their innate wholeness. He authored a groundbreaking book, Radical Enlightenment: My Guy on the 9th Floor, which was written after a profound enlightenment experience that connected him to his higher, energetic self. It has become a handbook for leveling up consciousness, fulfillment, and connection to your higher-self so you can reach your own state of radical enlightenment. For the last 20 years as a UI/UX (User Interface/ User Experience) Designer and Experience Strategist, he specialized in designing creative solutions that guided a user on a journey, through an experience, to an intended outcome. By coupling the skills he had honed in the design field with what he had learned on his own journey of self-discovery, he realized that he had the keys to guide others at lightning-fast speed. His practice guides people through a step-by-step process to experience the self-awareness, self-expansion, and healing that is so deeply needed today for each of us as individuals, and collectively as stewards of our planet.
