In a lot of spiritual traditions gossip is a way to make people feel that they are superior to others who have made a misstep or who are not behaving in an ethical manner. It is true it is up to our communities to let people know when there are unethical teachers who are hurting others instead of truly teaching ethically from a place where they have done a lot of personal work to tame and transmute their shadow. When we can do this we end up creating unity which is so needed today. Division is s...

In this extremely relevant show to the times we are living in, Renee and Sandra speak about an article in the New York Times where a psychologist talked about letting go of the need to forgive people who abused you but instead have compassion for what made them behave in such a destructive way. It is an interesting concept to think about today where people try to force forgiveness. Forgiveness can’t be forced as it comes only at the right time when we have come to a new place in our life. Join R...

Sandra went to see the new Dylan movie which reminded her how tight the community was in the 1960s, and how they stood together during challenging times and did not sit down but connected and demonstrated.

Join Sandra and Renee for this important show on the need for the spiritual community to come ...

At at time on the planet when looking youthful and finding ways to live longer dominate our news and culture an entire part of our population is not being honored for the life that have led and what they contributed over their lifetime. We tend to compare how we are aging to what we see in the news and to others who we know. The truth is we all have our natural cycle of life and aging is a part of life as we are Nature and everything in Nature grows old and dies. How do we follow our own interna...

Our modern Western culture tends to focus on learning through lectures and gathering more material. This works to a point, but how deep does this information go when we are only engaging our conscious mind. During this show Renee and Sandra introduce us to the power of old-time story telling that is circular rather than linear and is a feminine way of teaching. Join Renee Baribeau and Sandra Ingerman as they dive into the topic of circular story telling as a way to bring back the old ways of fem...

Renee Baribeau had a profound experience that inspired this episode. We encounter countless people each day, moving through life at such a rapid pace that it becomes difficult to pause and engage in true heart-to-heart exchanges. Too often, we place labels on others—calling them ignorant, lazy, or mentally ill—without ever stopping to connect with them on a human level. But when we take the time to engage authentically, we tap into a deep well of truth, empathy, and shared humanity. Viewing othe...

With all the immense amount of information everyone gave on the eclipse there were a lot of people making predictions that no one knows if they will come true. Sometimes predictions about someone’s life or the collective need to be given in ways that empower us to make changes rather than having a poisonous seed planted inside of us with no possibility of being weeded out. This causes us to wonder did this happen because it was part of my destiny versus did it happen because someone planted a se...

Sandra Ingerman and Renee Baribeau have been working very hard to be in service. And being in service is both of their passions and bring them energy and joy. But when there is no exchange of energy they both found themselves experiencing burnout. So many of us in life were taught giving is always better than receiving.

Renee Baribeau has been talking about her journey ahead to walk the Camino. This led Sandra to think about how in many shamanic cultures the power of the healing often comes from the commitment you make and the sacrifice to get to the healing. At a time on the planet where a majority of healing is going on remotely there are things to consider. Remote work does work well as the veils between the worlds are so much thinner. But what gets missed when there is no pilgrimage to get to the healing? J...

Sandra has been passionate about teaching the metaphor that shamans are gardeners of energy. What we plant grows. As Renee reminds us seeds grow and blossom in their own timing and can take days, weeks, to years. The spiritual community often gets caught up in we must fight for our belief and often time judge those who feel change can happen with planting seeds of love, gratitude, and kindness.

They talk about how we moved from feeling connected to all, to the cycle of dissolution we entered into with the pandemic, war, and climate change and now we are crawling back out.

In our modern world we tend to take everything literally. But in all spiritual traditions wisdom is passed down through metaphorical stories. And this is true of oracle cards and omens that the universe shows us to give us a roadmap for how to move forward in life and the forces surrounding us. Carl Jung taught that symbols change our consciousness. Working with symbols and metaphors that we receive when we work with cards, journeys, spiritual books, taking walks in nature gives us the opportuni...
