A startling headline lit up my screen: Russian dissident Alexei Navalny had been assassinated. The news shook me to my core, leaving me appalled at the apparent depths to which Russian leader Vladimir Putin would stoop, fully aware of the shockwaves it would send worldwide.

Navalny's murder snuffed out a beacon of hope in the oppressive landscape of Putin's Russia. When a leader turns to such brutal tactics, it reveals not strength but profound weakness. Navalny epitomized everything the autocrat in the Kremlin was not.

It is the nature of dictatorial regimes that they bring forth the best and the worst extremes in mankind. South Africa's apartheid regime had shining examples of courage and humanity in Nelson Mandela, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Steve Biko, and many others. Nazi Germany had Dietrich Boenhoeffer and dissidents such as Sophie Scholl. Czechoslovakia had Vaclav Havel and Poland Lech Walesa.

#Reino Gevers #media #spirituality #selfawareness #selfdevelopment #truth

In the tumultuous public information space, truth finds itself relegated to the backseat, drowned out by a cacophony of lies, deception, and hate speech. The manipulation of truth isn't solely the domain of petty criminals; it's a tool wielded with equal fervor by autocrats, dictators, and cult leaders.

Highlights in the episode:

• Identifying the purveyors of manipulation
• Boosting your vibrational energy

Are you finding yourself on a frustrating treadmill of doing a job that you hate and counting the years until retirement? There are millions of people out there wasting the most precious years of their lives for all the wrong reasons.

On average about half of your lifetime will be spent working, assuming you retire in your mid-60s and have a typical lifespan between 70 and 80. It therefore makes sense that you spend your best years doing what you love and what you are passionate about.

Janet Schmidt, the Creator and founder of "Reprogram For Success" and Quantum Consciousness Integration™, has discovered that by using four techniques, you can change your belief system and reprogram yourself for the success you desire in any area of your life. 

Her program was born after she lost a small fortune and she realized that an epigenetic ancestral imprinting could explain her thoughts and emotions of losing money. 

Janet has come from eight generations of ministers who signed up to be economically challenged, and gave their last cent to the underserved and had no money to manage. Once she understood this she reprogrammed and instilled a new belief. 

Today she can happily report that “large sums of money flow to her easily and quickly continuously that she gets to keep, enjoy, and share."

Highlights of this episode:

• Healing from trauma and limiting beliefs
• Building emotional resilience and a prosperity mindset

When confronted with the question of belief in God, many people respond with discomfort, embarrassment, or confusion. The term "God" has become so heavily laden with emotions and misconceptions that even those who identify as "spiritual" or "religious" shy away from openly discussing the concept.

Navigating an authentic discussion about God, spirituality, and beliefs has become especially challenging in a world that is progressively secularized, marked by feelings of isolation, and a sense of disconnection.

Topics in this episode:

• Connecting with the inner spark
• Experiential spirituality versus religion
• Defining evil

Life can be a rollercoaster of natural and spontaneous changes constantly forcing us to tread unknown paths. While some people may excitedly embrace a new beginning others retreat into fixed belief and ideology, providing the illusion of a safety cacoon in a world of “turmoil.”

But resistance to the natural flow of life and attachment to fixed thoughts, beliefs, and things is one of the greatest causes of human suffering and misery. Staying in the moment and finding peace in the acceptance of reality is thus at the core of the Taoist and Mystic teachings.

Highlights of this episode:

- The power of consciousness and real presence

- Liberating the mind from fixated belief and dogma

- Boosting your vibrational energy.

Humanity is about to embark on a journey marked by monumental shifts and unprecedented disruptions, unlike anything we have seen before. It will impact every aspect of our lives, creating a ripple effect that will affect us on multiple levels. During times of uncertainty, we are seeing a retreat into political extremism and religious fanaticism. Fear is what fuels the radicals, exploiting emotions to sow discord and chaos. Millions will find themselves on the losing end, navigating the turbulent waters of change.

Amidst these challenges, there will emerge a resilient group of individuals and communities who seize the opportunity. Winners not only adapt to change but have the innate ability of turning adversity into an advantage.

Ultimately all of life underlies a seasonal principle of natural and spontaneous changes. Evolutionary change, sometimes disruptive, is an elementary aspect of the universal intelligence, of God, or the divine.

- Resilience is acceptance of life's seasonal principle

- Within the vast tapestry of the universe life is constantly, evolving, adapting and in motion

Kelli Field and her daughter walked the 800-kilometre Camino de Santiago pilgrimage route in northwestern Spain in 2017.  The adventure was transformational. With her husband Jeff,  moving to Spain was the logical next step. Her debut novel: “The Grief of Goodbye”, set on the Camino, was recently published. It is an emotionally charged tale of love, sacrifice, and redemption.

Another project is the Happiness Café on the Camino which Kelli and Jeff set up to serve pilgrims on the Camino with a sustainable experience, including flexitarian, vegetarian, and gluten-free foods with allergen sensitivities in mind.

Kelli also writes a popular Blog "Viva Espana, moving to Spain with purpose", sharing her experience of living in Spain, which she says wasn’t all easy…

Michael McGinnis had his first transformational experience in his early twenties at a personal development seminar in California, discovering that he’d formed all of the limitations in his life through words of victimhood.

Liberated, and turning his life around he moved to Central America where he became a successful entrepreneur, big wave surfer and racing car driver.

But he continued to be haunted by an unfulfilled void and fell into suicidal depression, coming to the realization that true fulfillment inherently resides within.

Today he is an award-winning author. In his latest book series, The Essential Revolution, Michael explores the importance of recognizing and revealing our spiritual connection while inside a system that has been fabricated to keep humans distracted and asleep. He has dedicated his life to serving humanity on a global level.

Topics in this episode:

• Awakening from fixed beliefs and concepts
• The universe or God will never throw at us more than we can handle
• The present moment is all that exists
• How victimhood prevents spiritual growth
• Religion and Experiential Spirituality

Have you asked yourself why decent, educated, and well-meaning people are pulled into the dragnet of a dangerous cult? Do you think you are immune to making the same mistake? All it takes for them to capture your mind is to push specific emotional triggers and feelings.

Times of uncertainty and rapid change impact personal lives in multiple ways. The world’s getting more complex. We are seeking easy answers and simple solutions. If you are at an especially vulnerable point in your life, and if you haven’t done the self-work in transmuting archaic fears, anxieties, and anger, you are at risk.

Highlights of this episode:

• The "us-versus-them" mentality
• Control and isolation
• Financial exploitation
• Exploitation of vulnerabilities

In the fast world of modern communication, the lesson is to look beyond hysteria and exaggeration and to analyze the facts, the message behind the many and often contradictory, even false information.

Who said it? Were does it come from, and does the source have an ulterior motive? Does the information reduce my energy level or increase my vibrational energy? Does it really serve my higher purpose?

• Movement and resistance training
• The power of community

Taking a walk on the ancient pilgrimage route in northwestern Spain has become for me an essential annual time out for reflection and rejuvenation.

It all started some 17 years ago when I was not in a very good place stuck in a dysfunctional relationship and a stressed-out job. My thoughts revolved around starting to live at some point in the distant future. A friend who took pity on me advised me to walk the famous pilgrimage route, the Camino de Santiago in northwestern Spain.

Like many first-time walkers on the Camino, I was obsessed about reaching my destination at a certain time in order to secure my place in a bunk bed in a pilgrims' hostel. The Camino is in so many ways an analogy of life which is why it has become such a popular destination for modern-day spiritual seekers.

How many times in life does the universe send warning whispers that we have missed a waymarker and are on the wrong path? How obsessed are we with things we think we need but insist on keeping them in our backpack?

The story of the lucky farmer from ancient China was told often by the Taoist teachers as a warning that good luck can often turn out to be bad luck and vice versa. 

The moral of the story is to remain free from attachment. Wealth or poverty, death or birth, fortune or misfortune are often intertwined with everything underlying the law of impermanence.

If you are currently in a bad spot, be assured that this too shall pass. If you are currently rolling high, enjoy the moment as it lasts but don‘t get attached.

Your mindset, your thoughts and what you believe so much determines how your life is going to be. What you express in words and mannerisms is an expression of your inner being.

Yet, one of the greatest obstacles to the elevation of consciousness is a mindset cemented into the “isms” of fixed belief, ideology, religion, or philosophy. It has been the root cause of so much human suffering over the centuries.

With much of traditional religions having succumbed to the practice of empty rituals, the spiritual vacuum is being filled by political preachers and ideologues fanning the flames of fanaticism.

If the shutters to the mind remain closed there is no sunlight that can penetrate the inner room. The mind is captured in the conceptual prison of a one-sided truth. All the others are wrong, belong to the wrong crowd, the wrong tribe, and the wrong race, gender, or religion. There is a disconnect with soul authenticity.

In this episode, Reino Gevers reflects on:

When scientists first published their studies on the earth's five blue zones where people live the longest most follow-up reports picked up on the nutritional aspect. But a common denominator less debated was that people in all five regions felt a strong sense of belonging and purpose within healthy and supportive communities.

We are hard-wired as social beings. The people we surround ourselves with have a much higher impact on our health and happiness than previously thought. Your tribe can either pull you down or lift you up.

In this episode Reino Gevers looks at the following aspects:

• What are the ingredients of a healthy community?
• What we can learn from centenarians?
• The connection between longevity and walking

One of the tragedies of the human condition is being stuck in the „monkey mind“ that is dancing in thoughts of what was and is no more and the fear and anxiety of what the future might hold.

Thoughts trigger emotions and emotions trigger reactions that inevitably have a major impact on your vibrational frequency that will in turn inevitably attract what you emanate.

If your mind is focused on scarcity you will see around you only scarcity and attract the same. If you are primarily a person in gratitude and abundance you will live in abundance and see abundance everywhere. It‘s what we call magnetism in the law of attraction.

The signs of a relationship going sour, a company going in decline, and a country becoming a failed state. The patterns are all the same. Early warning signals are not heeded.

A leak in the roof of a house will drip by drip gradually weaken the structural walls until the foundations give way and the house collapses. When small repairs are not carried out they become big problems. A health crisis is preceded by many small aches and pains. A relationship breakdown will have a long history of hurts, insults, and betrayals. A company’s bankruptcy comes after years of poor management and missed opportunities.

The seeds of the failed nation are sown with the gradual growth of the tentacles of corruption, poor government, and nepotism. Countries such as Venezuela, Zimbabwe, Argentina, and South Africa are just some examples of once-flourishing countries that today are sad reminders of how fast the rot can set in.

An alcoholic will very often only seek help during an epiphany that comes in a “flat on the ground” moment. The person is so disgusted and pained about his own behavior that he will admit finally that he has a problem. It is the first step in the healing process.

Negative and destructive behavior has the habit of sneaking into life in many subtle ways. It is one of the reasons why so many New Year resolutions fail. Typical sabotaging self-talk could be: “It won’t make much of a difference if I skip my workout this morning.” “I need to reward myself with a shopping spree after saving for two months.” “It won’t affect my relationship if I cheat on my partner just this once.”

Creating a life of bliss with positive habits

Transmuting pain and suffering leads to higher consciousness and positive change. Meaning and purpose are found after years of depression. A fulfilling, loving relationship is found after enduring years of abuse in a dysfunctional marriage. A different and more fulfilling work is sought after job burnout. An exercise routine and a healthy diet are followed with passion after overcoming a life-threatening disease.

What can you do today? What can be done that will start the ball rolling? If you enter an untidy room filled with junk, you start by clearing one small area, then the following day the next, and so on. Getting physically fit could start with a walk of 2,000 steps and then gradually increase it day by day to 10,000 steps. Reducing a stressed out and fearful mind can begin with a short meditation lasting three minutes until 15-20 minutes is done with ease because you feel so much better afterward. Training body, mind, and spirit to a new level of consciousness and bliss comes after a reawakening from the shadowlands.

Much of what we think and feel is being subconsciously shaped by social media platforms cementing beliefs and perspectives.

Emotions are an involuntary initial response to external stimuli by the brain’s limbic system as part of our evolutionary survival system.

The ancient Greek and Roman Stoic philosophers were well aware of this human trait. So, they developed a philosophy of life that maximizes positive emotions, reducing negative emotions, and honing virtues of character.

The Stoics believed that the way in which you respond to the world is your responsibility. They propose that most of the time your response to any given situation is a choice. At any moment you have the ability to choose one response over another.

Wisdom was seen as living in harmony with the divine Reason of that which governs nature. They trained the mind to remain calm amid the vicissitudes of life and fortune.
