In this episode, Susan and Valerie sit down with Travis Preston to discuss the power of firewalking. Firewalking is a practice in which individuals walk barefoot across a bed of hot coals or stones without sustaining burns or injuries. It's often associated with various cultural and spiritual traditions, including religious rituals and personal growth seminars. The practice is usually conducted under the guidance of experienced facilitators who prepare participants both mentally and physically.
As for the benefits attributed to firewalking, they are primarily psychological and symbolic in nature:
Overcoming fear: Firewalking is often seen as a powerful metaphor for facing and conquering one's fears. By walking across the hot coals, participants confront their fear of fire and learn to trust themselves and their abilities to overcome obstacles.
 
Building confidence: Successfully completing a firewalk can boost self-confidence and self-esteem. It demonstrates to participants that they are capable of accomplishing seemingly impossible tasks with the right mindset and preparation.
Mindfulness and focus: Walking across hot coals requires intense concentration and mindfulness. Participants must focus their attention entirely on the present moment, which can help cultivate mindfulness and reduce stress.
 
Personal empowerment: Firewalking is sometimes used as a tool for personal empowerment and transformation. 
 
Cultural and spiritual significance: In some cultures, firewalking is a sacred ritual with spiritual significance.

Corrine is an Empath and a Psychic Medium. Even as a small child, Corrine has had a special insight into other people’s emotions.

As years went on, Corrine became more aware of her ability as her readings became more accurate and her predictions began to materialize. At the age of 30, she began having premonition dreams. After seeking the guidance of her Shaman, she came to accept that she is an Empath & an Intuitive. Corrine is a natural healer, using her Empathy, Intuition, and Reiki to heal others emotionally, spiritually, and physically.
