Miracles in Manhattan Maisto and Wild

A tiny intro to the show. 
Can serenity and romantic entanglement go hand in hand? These spiritual delinquents believe they can.   
Long-time friends Stephanie Wild (Psychic Medium and best-selling author) and Marco Maisto (poet and producer) show you that sex, peace of mind (and even chaos) are not such strange bedfellows, after all.

And yeah, make you happier.

This week, MiM takes on lesson 1 of ACIM and much more...
Nothing I see means anything.

The follies of perception in spiritual and everyday life Marco’s misadventures in adolescent psychotherapy How Stephanie learned to speak proper What to wear when you need a driver’s license or a small business loan The Past: M, F, or K?

You are caught in a dream. Lesson 2.
The world is a fiction of my own making. I’ve given everything in this room—everything I see—the meaning it has. And so have you. Is your story anything like my story? Are we really in the same room? Why do so many things we see bother us?
Let’s get outta here.
This week, the Miracles in Manhattan Podcast team takes on Lesson 2 of A Course in Miracles...and other matters. Talking points include:.
How we see things. How to undo how we see things Are you a trauma junkie or true masochist? Move to NYC and find out Getting sober, staying weird Empathy: tips and tricks Marco doesn’t prepare for the show: a  rationalization. Sleeping vs passing out on the subway: Steph draws a line Perception is projection. Dammit Home is $20/week and a kind airline mechanic The gift of lies in love and loss What business meetings and mass hallucinations have in common

Things don’t mean things. Lesson 3. 
So first you tell me that in this room nothing means anything—unless I give it meaning. (And so I concede the point: I look at that painting because you painted it, I like tonic because I used to love gin—I am drawn to what is familiar to me, to things that remind me of my experiences.) But now you tell me that the only way to leave this place is to convince myself that I truly don’t understand anything in here.
You tell me that to stay in this room is death. To escape, you say, I’ve got to shed my instincts and stop making sense from the things that I can see and touch, as if today were the first day of my life.
What’s on the other side of that door?
This week, the Miracles in Manhattan Podcast team takes on Lesson 3 of A Course in Miracles...and other matters. Talking points include:.
Understanding is human. Unknowing is divine The only dangerous cup Tenderly curated foul language Blindfolds and baking bread: Stephanie on sexual healing “I don’t know,” or how to save the world with just 3 words Need a friend? Ask for the impossible! Undating the minor poets of New York When you meet the Buddha, make strange A skinny, 6’ tall, mom in the Sahara: meet the bravest firefighter Not weird enough: Marco meets his match This machine kills fascists: becoming-blank slate “I’m not a woman, but if I were…” A problematic thought experiment Your okayest life

It's loud in here. Everything I see in this room is like an echo chamber, bouncing my ideas and feelings back at me in a voice that is not my own. I can't hear myself think.  
Oh...hold on. That's a good thing, isn't it?
Freedom of thought and freedom from thought go hand in hand. This week, your favorite poet-producer and psychic medium share bonus outtakes, and discuss how to get free from invasive thoughts and feelings--and why doing it is a fundamentally revolutionary act of self-care. A page from A course in Miracles helps us trouble the annoying idea that there's such a thing as Good and Evil.
Things get wavy. Jump on here.
