    #26: From Crisis to Meaning with Shinzen Young

    Welcome to the Season One Finale of the Soulspace Podcast! On this episode, we talk to Shinzen Young about mindfulness within the context of the modern meaning crisis. Shinzen is a renowned meditation teacher and neuroscience research consultant. We met with him in Toronto after he had just finished leading a meditation retreat. Shinzen first became fascinated with Asian culture as a Jewish teenager growing up in Los Angeles in the 1950s. As he likes to describe himself: “I’m a Jewish-American Buddhist teacher who got turned on to comparative mysticism by an Irish-Catholic priest and who has developed a Burmese-Japanese fusion practice inspired by the spirit of quantified science.” We discuss happiness, enlightenment and his current new project which involves using brain stimulating technology that may dramatically accelerate meditation gains. He is the author of The Science of Enlightenment: How Meditation Works.   Shownotes http://www.soulspacepodcast.com/2019/07/21/episode26 (http://www.soulspacepodcast.com/?p=1935)   'You Are Simply', Poem by Thal Mohammed Music by Hoiking Fung https://youtu.be/5Ph3oJ125sc   Connect info@soulspacepodcast.com https://www.instagram.com/soulspacepod/ (https://www.instagram.com/soulspacepod/) https://www.facebook.com/soulspacepod (https://www.facebook.com/soulspacepod) https://twitter.com/soulspacepod (https://twitter.com/soulspacepod)   About Adrian Choo & Thal Mohammed explore modern spirituality and life's profound questions with fellow seekers.

    #25: Raising Consciousness Through Sound with Alexandre Tannous

    Alexandre Tannous has been active as a musician, educator, composer, and an ethnomusicologist. For the past 13 years he has been researching the therapeutic and esoteric properties of sound. He has developed a protocol he calls “Sound Meditation” which uses specific sounds to help people tap into the self-healing capacities that we all possess. We discuss Gnosticism, the physics of sound, and how music is weaponized and used to hijack consciousness for religious and capitalistic agendas. Alexandre holds a Bachelor of Music in Theory and Composition, a Master of Arts degree in Music Education as well as a Master of Arts and a Master of Philosophy degrees in Ethnomusicology from Columbia University. His works are frequently performed in the United States, Europe, and in Asia.

    #23: What Is It Like to Be a Vampire with L.A. Paul

    L.A. Paul is a professor of philosophy and cognitive science at Yale University. Her main research interests are in metaphysics, cognitive science, and the philosophy of mind. In this conversation, we look at how certain types of life decisions that involve transformative experiences, like having a baby or becoming a vampire, cannot be made based on evidence and rational thought. We discuss the value of exploring these philosophical questions and the wisdom that can come from embracing uncertainty. Laurie is the author of Transformative Experience, Causation: a user’s guide, and Causation and Counterfactuals.   Shownotes http://www.soulspacepodcast.com/2019/06/30/episode23/ (http://www.soulspacepodcast.com/?p=1868)   'Seven Layers', Poem by Thal Mohammed Music by Hoiking Fung https://youtu.be/34HMriXnYHE   Connect info@soulspacepodcast.com https://www.instagram.com/soulspacepod/ (https://www.instagram.com/soulspacepod/) https://www.facebook.com/soulspacepod (https://www.facebook.com/soulspacepod) https://twitter.com/soulspacepod (https://twitter.com/soulspacepod)   About Adrian Choo & Thal Mohammed explore modern spirituality and life's profound questions with fellow seekers.

    #21: Holistic Psychotherapy with Phyllis Alongi

    The journey of healing through psychotherapy entails an unearthing of our authentic feelings that we have learned to shut down due to various reasons, including trauma and societal constructs. More and more, we recognize the importance of connection and relationships in our mental health. The space between two people, whether they are client and therapist, two friends, or lovers, may be an essential factor in healing. On this episode, we have a conversation with professional counselor and educator Phyllis Alongi. Based in New Jersey, Phyllis brings a holistic approach to psychotherapy and healing. We explore toxic relationships, the therapeutic container, Sandplay Therapy with children, and we also tackle some sensitive mental health topics like trauma, borderline personality disorder and suicidality. Phyllis is a Reiki and Healing Arts practitioner and she is currently completing her doctoral degree in Integral and Transpersonal Psychology.   Shownotes http://www.soulspacepodcast.com/2019/06/16/episode21 (http://www.soulspacepodcast.com/?p=1823)   Poem by Thal Mohammed Music by Hoiking Fung https://youtu.be/jRmHO7zlgMM (https://youtu.be/jRmHO7zlgMM) Connect info@soulspacepodcast.com https://www.instagram.com/soulspacepod/ (https://www.instagram.com/soulspacepod/) https://www.facebook.com/soulspacepod (https://www.facebook.com/soulspacepod) https://twitter.com/soulspacepod (https://twitter.com/soulspacepod)   About Adrian Choo & Thal Mohammed explore modern spirituality and life's profound questions with fellow seekers.

    #20: Sexual Kung Fu with Yanshuf Kadesh

    The purpose of Taoist teachings is to help us develop balance and harmony with the source, pattern, and substance of everything that exists. Our sexual energy is a powerful expression of that life force. And yes it can be trained consciously in a way that brings about healing and vitality. Yanshuf Kadesh is an accredited instructor of Neidan, the closely guarded ’Inner Alchemy’ practices of Chi Gong, which were first brought to the West by Dr. Mantak Chia. Yanshuf had a former career as a Clinical Psychologist with an interest in transpersonal psychology. He also has extensive Kabbalistic training in Israel. We discuss how cultivating sexual life energy through Tantric and Taoist practices can lead to deeper healing, higher consciousness, and evolutionary change. As we move towards possible dystopian futures with artificial intelligence, Yanshuf believes that we desperately need to reground ourselves in our basic sexual nature and to reconnect with our wholeness.

    Jorge Ferrer is considered one of the main architects of second-wave transpersonal psychology and is best known for his participatory approach to spiritual knowing and religious pluralism. He is an international lecturer and professor at California Institute of Integral Studies. He teaches courses on transpersonal and integral studies, comparative mysticism, participatory theory, embodied spiritual inquiry, and spiritual perspectives on sexuality and intimate relationships.  We explore non-ordinary states of consciousness, embodied spirituality or “body fulness”, plant medicines, and the need for more cross-pollination between spiritual traditions.   Shownotes http://www.soulspacepodcast.com/2019/06/02/episode19 (http://www.soulspacepodcast.com/?p=1770)   Poem by Thal Mohammed Music by Hoiking Fung https://youtu.be/5IPKauYFdmg (https://youtu.be/5IPKauYFdmg)   Connect info@soulspacepodcast.com https://www.instagram.com/soulspacepod/ (https://www.instagram.com/soulspacepod/) https://www.facebook.com/soulspacepod (https://www.facebook.com/soulspacepod) https://twitter.com/soulspacepod (https://twitter.com/soulspacepod)   About Adrian Choo & Thal Mohammed explore modern spirituality and life's profound questions with fellow seekers.
