Earlier this year I began researching Iodine in earnest, and discovered it is the capstone to actual health and mental acuity. In the last 70 years we have been made to fear this essential nutrient that has a documented historical resume of reversing conditions like goiter, cysts, tumors, mental retardation and much more. As a result of misconceptions, the vast majority of us are iodine-deficient, which leads to a number of conditions linked to iodine deficiency such as fibrocystic breast...

This next episode highlights one of Nature’s most extraordinary gifts to this world – medicinal mushrooms. I’ve taken them in dual extract form for years and have always known they are medicinal but doing the deeper research has blown my mind. In hours 1 and 2 I will share with you the most wondrous benefits of a number of medicinal mushrooms and in hour 2 I’ll discuss spagyrics, tincturing and more. Nature has a cure and a solution for everything and by the way, so does our body, which is...

For those who are fascinated with Runes I have a special guest for you. I met Tina Kemp through the Women of Wisdom conference where she and I had a discussion on magic and I was so impressed with her wealth of knowledge on the subject.    In hour 1, Tina discusses the runes, how she came to work with them and what they symbolize. Listening to her I feel like I am sitting with a wise woman from an earlier century, she is steeped in occult lore and practices.    The second hour explores the...

For two years in a row I had the great privilege and pleasure to pair up with poet and forest bard, John Willmott, to co-lead a tour on the northwest coast of Ireland through County Sligo, home to several megalithic sites, the lush forest of Hazelwood by Lough Gill, and abundant breathtaking scenery. John is a unique soul who as a child was dowsing maps and drawing astrology charts before the age of 8. He’s held a strong tie to the natural world that began as a wee boy and continues to this...

Today,, she resides in Tasmania with her husband where they live a simple life away from the mainstream, and her observations on our current construct are very insightful.Jean Marie has managed to...

Food sovereignty and health are dear to my heart. With ever-increasing corporate/government control on our medical and food choices it is incumbent upon us to seek out the most effective ways to achieve and maintain radiant health on every level. You are what you eat. Cancer, heart disease and diabetes are not diseases of aging. They were medical rarities at the turn of the 20th century until the food changed dramatically and soils, plants and livestock became depleted and poisoned by...

Vanese McNeill is the Executive Producer of the cult classic series, Magical Egypt. In addition she hosts a fascinating podcast where she converses with unique and brilliant thinkers on the subjects of ancient Egypt, magic, consciousness, human potential and more. Her solo podcast talks are not to be missed and she delivers the goods with her insight and wit. She also happens to be a dear friend of mine and I savor every opportunity to sit in conversation with her.     The first hour of our...

i heard from Dr Tom Garcia a number of years ago when he contacted me to introduce himself and share his appreciation for the mushroom teachers. We’ve stayed in contact and I have observed Tom’s unfolding over the years where he has become a most gracious medicine man for his community.   In hour one, Tom discusses his relationship not only with the mushroom teachers but also with the spirit of the fire, which is a potent elemental force that has shaped his approach to his calling as a...

I love working with dreams as they reveal so much if we can decipher the symbolism and intuit their messages. Nature and the deep psyche – which is nature – speak in symbol, and a psychedelic mushroom journey is no different. Over the years I’ve helped people interpret and integrate their psychedelic journeys including the “bad trips.” You can’t predict how a journey will go but there is much that can be done to make sure you are safe and comfortable and well-tended. If and when a mushroom...

Marla Durden is one of those people I could talk with for hours. From an early age she became aware of subtle energy and has been studying it ever since. From hands-on healing to dowsing to BioGeometry, she has accrued a tremendous amount of knowledge and experience. She teaches and leads groups and runs a psycho-spiritual mentoring practice in Seattle. She is also quite familiar with the mushroom spirits and we begin the first hour discussing her connection with those teachers, and Marla has...

Steve and Krys Crimi run the publishing house, Logosophia Books, and I am honored to be one of their authors. They are wise elders with eyes to see and the wit, heart and wisdom to navigate this reality with clarity. I’ve been listening to them on Robert Phoenix’s Youtube channel, The Friday Farcast, for a number of years. With Robert, they’ve shared their depth of knowledge on subjects such as the esoteric roots of the USA, the work of magician, John Dee, the Frankfurt School, Tavistock, and...

My connection to the faerie goes all the way back to my childhood. They are old friends to many of us and still active on the earthly plane. In the first hour of this episode I discuss the different races of faerie and share a number of compelling stories told by Celtic people through the ages. I share poetry by Yeats and Sir Walter Scott, and share excerpts from the writings of folklorists, Katherine Mary Briggs, and W.Y. Evans Wentz, as a way to bring dignity and relevance to the indigenous...

I have always taken good care of my body with exercise and good food. When I began exploring the mushroom realms at the age of 48, I realized immediately how important it was to have a strong healthy body, as nature’s entheogenic plants and fungi can take a lot out of the body. There is much talk about “set and setting” with regard to psychedelics but little in the way of how to prepare and support the body with herbs and other foods. Rebecca Rozelle Presnall  is a master herbalist,...

Astrology has been a powerful component in my retreats because of its extraordinary ability to reveal the inner workings of the persona. It provides a deeper understanding of the self and offers a hugely helpful head’s up for how to navigate the changing tides of worldly life. Robert Phoenix is an astrologer par excellence, who has an uncanny ability to pinpoint the deeper layers at work on the world stage through the lens of astrology. He predicted the extraordinary upheaval of 2020 in...

The ancient Druids and other initiates of the mysteries were fluent in the subject of law. For myself, it was a mushroom journey that set me on the path of learning what I have discovered to be a most potent spiritual study, for Natural Law is spiritual in nature. In the first hour of Episode 4, I will discuss some essential maxims that once learned, will confer true empowerment. ‘*Knowledge is power’* as the saying goes, and these timeless principles serve us as effectively today as they did...

In the second hour Patrick shares stories on his successful negotiations with plant spirits, animals, the spirit of...
