[Free 1st Half] Why We Accept (or Refuse) the Invitation of Sacred Plants

If we were to consider our conscious awareness of the world to be as big as the point of a pin, then the work of sacred plants would be to show us nuances present in and around that pin. To belittle reality, consciousness, awareness, and altered states of perception is not what I am doing here. That’s not my job. Bringing a semblance of what we are actually facing, that is my job. Who put us on this pin? Well, we did, of course. Why? You know, it has been 60 years since I entered this pin and I ...

[Free 1st Half] The Forest : Healing Mind, Body and Soul

Note: this is a re-run of episode 209 Healing has become a big topic for me in the past few months. I have seen a return to the healing lineages of my ancestors and the direct orchestration of healing and healers coming together to practice their skills. When I looked at 2024, for the light side of the split, I saw that healing was going to enter our awareness and lives strongly this year, but it still took me by surprise when my own healing skills popped up again to be utilized. I have been dil...

[Free 1st Half] Post-Event Exhaustion Is Real (But It’s Not What You Think)

It’s not burnout - it’s growth fatigue. Here’s how to recover and why it happens in the first place. Many years ago, I wrote an article called “ Post Event and Ego Crash Symptoms ”. I wrote it after witnessing many of the participants who had come to my events struggling once they returned home. I did some research and talked to other teachers and guides who hold events, and this seemed to be a universal phenomenon. Not everyone would have a crash, but many people did, and it didn’t matter what ...

[Free 1st Half] My June 2025 In Person Event was Awesome!

Once, and these days two or three times a year, I will host a live, in-person event. It used to be that I offered these events on my mailing list, Facebook page, Instagram, and other social websites. But a few years ago, I announced it in my Wisdom Keepers and Wisdom Seekers platform WalkWithMeNow.com (WMMN), and it was sold out within a few days. It goes without saying that I didn’t post that event on my social media after it was sold out at WWMN. After that experience, I now only announce my i...

[Free 1st Half] I told you so... When we feel unheard.

I know you can relate to being unheard. And I know you have said, or held back from saying, “I told you so,” millions of times in your life. Why do I know these things? I know these things because as awakened light-beings, we can see more than others can and this causes our advice to often be dismissed (usually because there is no physical proof of what we are seeing), or we are totally misinterpreted. In other words, we say one thing, but something else is heard by the person or people we are t...

[Free 1st half] The secret sauce for excellent groups

One of the early lessons we learned from starting and running WalkWithMeNow.com (WWMN), a platform dedicated to Wisdom Keepers and Seekers who are actively studying my material (albeit not exclusively), is that a clear set of rules and regulations were paramount for its success. I went into a meditative state and wrote out various things I wanted us to interact with and within the parameters that felt resonant to what I wanted to experience while interacting with other people. Especially with th...

[Free 1st half] When Wisdom Keepers and Seekers Meet up!

This has indeed been an interesting week. To begin with, a lot of clarity has been coming my way about the nature of the split, the light/dark paradigm, the light-paradigm and the dark-paradigm. The plays on our experience, the way in which the dark side reacts to light impinging into their realms, and how things can go when meeting and working with folk who have a foot on each side of the light - dark split. I was meditating on the meaning of Walkwithmenow.com (WWMN). For those of you who don’t...

[Free 1st half] Self Absorption and The New Paradigm

I am not actually sure if there is anyone on Earth who is not self-absorbed. Anyone with an ego will have some degree of self absorption. I did a quick internet search on the words “self absorbed” and all the results came back with detailed advice on how to deal with self-obsessed people, how terrible they are and how you must run away from them if you meet one. Despite that, I have yet to meet someone who is not at least partially centered on their own self, life, priorities, work, relationship...

[Free 1st Half]Enchanted Gastronomy - food as a mystical tool

One of the things Larry and I have noticed time and again when eating out, is how some restaurants deliver a plate filled with flavor and life, while others deliver slightly salted cardboard. Growing up in a family steeped in mystical knowledge, it was not secret that not everyone was allowed in the kitchen. Anyone who was angry was immediately removed, for example. Why? What did it matter? You may ask the reason was energy and frequency. It wasn't just about how an angry person, or a sad person...

[Free 1st half] After Iboga - The Plant Speaks

For that episode, go here and make sure to log behind the paywall for the Wisdom Keeper hour to hear our panelists' experiences with sacred plants, their viewpoints and research. This week, we are covering not only Larry’s experience with the iboga sacred plant, but we have also interviewed t...

[Free 1st Half] Listening to Sasquatch

It is April, and as most years around this time our friend Todd Standing comes to the Rez with his expeditioners. Todd lives and breathes Sasquatch research. We, on the other hand, just see them as our friendly neighbors who we go out and seek once a year when Todd is here. Todd is loved by all of us and needs no introduction to our readers or audience. This year we also had a visit from our friend Tobe Johnson. Tobe is a producer known for Voices in the Wilderness , A Flash of Beauty: Paranorma...

[Free 1st Half] Forgetting stuff a lot? - Timelines shifting

Recently, I was talking to one of my students about the amount of things that slip our minds. And how much content or context is forgotten on a daily basis. At first this was simply funny, a thing to 0bserve (no I did not misspell the word. I used a zero instead of an O to illustrate an exercise I teach in the iBenz Method). Then, I noticed how widespread this problem was. I became curious and started looking in more detail at the mechanics behind this phenomenon. One of the things that was comm...

[Free 1st Half] Iboga - Sacred plants, are they good or bad?

The journey of the Shaman (and yes, I am using this word in the modern sense of native people’s wisdom keepers), sometimes involves the use of a sacred plant. In the past few months, the Iboga plant made an appearance in our community. So much so that Larry has researched the plant with the possibility of joining a ceremony. Finding a place has been quite an adventure spanning the globe from Africa to Portugal to Canada and Mexico. The plant itself remarked to larry and I that it’s journey out o...

[Free 1st Half] Sex and Enlightenment

When we think of carnal pleasures, or pleasures of the flesh, the first thing we think about is sex. Of course there are other pleasures of the flesh, such as eating, drinking, enjoying nature, music, art, conversation… all the pleasures we gain from our physical senses, our body and our mind. Carnal pleasures are not incompatible with ascension . In fact they can help. However, they are a two edge sword, just like any modality based in the body, mind or spirit. For our existence on Earth, love ...

[Free 1st Half] We are Human

Often I will talk about “when I feel something in my human form” or “I experienced that in human”, or “that person can really speak human.” When I express myself in this manner, it seems to give the impression that I am not human. Or that the listener is not human. Often people will tell me what planet or vibrational dimension they are from. Often they ask which one I am from. We are here to experience life as Humans because at this moment, this present time, we are human. It doesn’t matter wher...

[Free 1st Half] In My Defence

If my life is in danger, or someone in my environment is in physical or psychological danger from an aggressor, I will defend myself, or them, without question. But when it comes to defending my integrity, my name, my work, pride, or anything else, I will simply walk away even if affected by it. Sometimes, I do get affected, there is an emotional charge to being “betrayed” by someone who professed their friendship, for example. Or someone who goes behind my back and speaks against me so that the...

[Free 1st Half] The Nature of Reality and Your Place in it

Reality is defined by our bandwidth of perception. It is also co-created by sentiency at different levels of self awareness. In June 2025, I will be hosting a lecture event for WalkWithMeNow.com students. The topic for this event is The Nature of Reality. In this article I will touch upon some of the topics we will be exploring in the June event, and if you want to attend that event, join the forum and get prepared and organized. This paragraph will be the extent of my June event announcement as...

[FREE 1st Half] How can the Light and Dark see each other?

On a recent comment on my Telegram Channel, one of my long term readers and supporters, Veronica Volkers, asked a question that not only is relevant to the podcast she was referring to, which is the one about the mystical mechanizations of the Vatican to keep human society in darkness but also relevant to all of my work for the past fifteen years. Here is her question: “I just listened to the Podcast and there is your telling ..they made us an offer and we agreed.. If we are on totally different...

[Free 1st Half] Is your reality correctly perceived?

Greetings, Wisdom Keeper! Is your reality correctly perceived? This question has two sides. We can become cognisant of those two sides by asking, “perceived by whom? One of those sides, and the most common, is where you feel that others don’t interpret you correctly. An example of this side would be if you ever asked yourself, “why don’t people get me?” Or when you make a statement such as, “I just don’t get those people.” Some other examples are, “nobody understands me.” Or, “people just don’t ...

In this article I want to concentrate on how the connection, or lack of, to the land the person is living on affects their ability or power to independently create their reality.As I am limited to the word count of an article, this exploration will focus on the implications to people who are displaced from their place of power.

[FREE 1st Half] Wisdom Lineages Part One - What are they?

This year of 2025 I promised to speak more about “lineages”. The lineages that I can speak about are my own three lineages which are Alchemist, Magic and Shamanic, but I will also talk about other lineages we can tap into. Of course, I have spoken about this extensively with the Wisdom Keepers and Seekers at WalkWithMeNow.com on many monthly and weekly meetups. In this article I will do a summary of what “lineages” mean. I will follow up with articles on the three lineages I carry, personally, d...

[FREE 1st Half] Wisdom Keeper's Knowing vs Evidence

Our Wisdom Keepers Driving To The Rez panelist, Fred, asked a fabulous question the other day. He said, and I quote: “Why do some people have experience, or internal knowing, that provides unshakable belief in woo, while others hear, read and discuss the same topics but remain forever skeptical needing to gather more evidence but forever believe woo isn't really real. Woo is any subject that we discuss that is outside of mainstream belief.” As per usual, I see a very simple reason for this. But,...

[FREE 1st Half] Enlightenment and Awareness - what are they?

Our Driving To The Rez second hour panelist, Fred, asked about the relationship between Enlightenment and Awareness. During our free, monthly enlightenment class at the Shamanshack in WA, we decided to explore this question. As a wisdom seeker, the main tool I use to advance my studies is to explore questions asked by other wisdom seekers. Without interesting questions, I would not have any idea of where to look. The questions cannot be random. For them to be useful, they need to be well thought...

Mystical Effects of this Month's Mass Media Headlines - December 2024 - Driving to the Rez - Episode 227 - Part One

Many of us are making plans for 2025. This energy, that of planning for the next 12 months, has a huge effect on our co-created reality. Headlines and topics being broadly pushed and discussed on the mass media outlets, including what was at one time considered alternative media, at this time are not coincidental. They are very well planned and released to have very specific effects in the human psyche, and our plans for the future. I am listing four headlines, and the mystical energies linked t...
