  • Returning guest Jeanne Vessard, an intuitive healer and author, discusses insights on the power of personal decision-making, emphasizing that we can choose to rise above external influences and align with our true selves. We explored the duality of human nature, and how faith in our spiritual side can lead to transformation. Meditation, positive thoughts, and connecting with our higher selves were highlighted as keys to spiritual growth. Don't miss this enlightening episode filled with practical wisdom and transformative experiences. Tune in now!

    About our Guest:

    Jeanne Vessard was a psychologist and a program manager for many programs that served children with special needs. When she began to meditate on a regular basis at 30 years old and also practice mindfulness many new experiences opened for her. She became aware of a deeper reality within her own being and she also had many higher dimensional experiences. She realized she was connected to many higher dimensional beings. She became aware of many resources from beyond this 3rd dimension world.

    She had personal experiences with some of the soul groups and her own light group from a high dimension. Those in that light group made many contacts with her over her life. Some of those beings came in groups and others made individual contacts. She was often aware when she saw them that she loved and missed them.

    Her first remembered experiences were at 7 years old when she and a younger sister saw and interacted with brilliant light beings from higher dimensions for a few nights. Later as an adult many of those beings made contact with her. The most contacts were made by the ancient mentor of that light group. She was given energy and healings by that ancient mentor and he also assisted her in creative activities by sometimes showing her scenes from higher dimensions that put her in new phrases of creativity.

    She often expressed some of those experiences in painting. She recorded many of those experiences over the decades and wrote about them in the book “Visions of a Star Traveler.” by J.M.Vessard available on Amazon and in many other places. There is also another book that will be published in the near future.

  • Alan sits down with Marcus Higgs, a communication coach, educator, and mindfulness expert with a rich multicultural background and international teaching experience. Together, they dive deep into the art of discernment and the virtue of non-judgment, exploring how we can process emotions and life's challenges calmly and with greater awareness.

    Marcus shares his innovative communication model, "wonder and explore the world together," that fosters long-term commitment to personal growth and project-based learning. The duo reflects on the transformative power of mindfulness in parenting and education, emphasizing the importance of self-awareness, virtues, and the divine presence within us all.

    Here are three key takeaways that can help us all enhance our personal and professional lives:

    🔹 Embrace Discernment for Emotional Equanimity: Marcus highlighted discernment as a virtue that allows us to process emotions without reacting personally or permanently. This practice can significantly reduce psychological suffering and foster a more mindful approach to life's challenges.

    🔹 Cultivate Collaborative Problem-Solving: Drawing from Ellen Galansky's "The Breakthrough Years," Marcus shared an inspiring story about involving children in managing video game time through open discussion rather than criticism. This approach not only encourages critical thinking but also supports self-regulation and autonomy.

    🔹 Practice "Virtue Spotting": Recognizing and appreciating the virtues in others can foster positive behavior and strengthen relationships. Marcus introduced a list of 24 virtues from the Virtues in Action Institute, based on positive psychology and stoicism, as a practical tool for this purpose.

    About the guest:

    Marcus supports parents of preteens (10-14 y.o.) so they can show up and maintain a meaningful relationship with their child during these natural 'identity-breaking' years.

  • Together, Alan and Bob explore the profound insights gained from practices such as Daoism and Buddhism, discussing how these ancient traditions align seamlessly with Christian principles. Bob shares his spiritual journey, which included personal upheavals and a rediscovery of faith, culminating in his book, "I am the way," a blend of Daoist and Christian teachings.

    Listeners will be captivated by Bob's dedication to helping others through mindfulness, including his innovative meditation courses designed for at-risk youth and corporate CEOs. We also dive into the significance of observing thoughts and emotions, tapping into Carl Jung’s studies on the I Ching, and the wisdom imparted by meditation mentors like Master Ni.

    So, tune in for an episode filled with profound wisdom, practical mindfulness techniques, and heartwarming stories that showcase the transformative power of inner work.

    But rather than just sharing an intriguing story, Bob provided actionable insights that can transform our approach to mindfulness and spiritual wellbeing. Here are my top three takeaways:

    🔹 Integration of Intuition and Logic: The I Ching, extensively studied by Carl Jung, engages both the intuitive and logical sides of the brain. It helps users connect with their intuition by keeping the logical brain occupied with calculations, paving the way for deeper self-awareness.

    🔹 The Power of Observing Thoughts: By practicing stillness and observing our thoughts, we can experience "waking up" moments as described in Buddhist teachings. This conscious observation helps us separate our identity from our thoughts, leading to a more balanced and peaceful mind.

    🔹 Blending Spiritual Traditions: Bob's unique journey inspired him to create "I am the way," a book that merges Daoist and Christian teachings, demonstrating the profound similarities between these philosophies. His work not only reconnects readers to the divine but also fosters an inclusive approach to spirituality.

    Resources Mentioned:

    I AM THE WAY: This book explores interfaith spiritual harmony creating a bridge between Eastern and Christian wisdom, expressing the chapters of the Tao Te Ching in Biblical language, forming a devotional.
