    Episode 28: Re-connecting to the Wisdom of our Bodies

    In this conversation, returning guest and friend Matthew Zoltan discusses his transition from his years as a monk into healing with osteopathy, massage, and counselling with an emphasis on understanding how the body holds memories and expresses it through pain and other symptoms. We explore how certain symptoms indicate specific types of emotional/psychological issues and Matthew discusses his understanding of trauma and how it affects people through his many decades of experience. We also discuss how this relates to what are called ‘mental illnesses’ and much more… Join us for another fascinating conversation.

    Episode 27: Stepping into Uncompromising Authenticity

    In this conversation with my good friend Yerasimos Stilianessis, we discuss a number of topics that are of great interest to us both, such as parts work and Human Design, and how they help us discover who we are and how we can become the best versions of ourselves. Yerasimos shares how he has chosen not to follow the status quo, but instead to follow his own inner guidance, a path that was based on his passion for learning how to live in alignment with truth, which he now shares with others. At its heart, Yerasimos’s work is about empowering people to create lives that truly reflect who they are.  He and his business partner Joel Rafidi co-host the Here For The Truth podcast, where they challenge mainstream conditioning and open space for deeper inquiry into life’s big questions. Join us for a fantastic and enlightening conversation.

    Episode 26: Are Parasites Invaders or Has Their Role Been Misunderstood?

    Liev Dalton has a degree in biochemistry and molecular biology, so he knows how the mainstream narrative is promulgated through the education system. Expecting to find real ‘science’, he instead found, to quote his own words, “reductionism, flawed theories, and a materialist framework that ignored the deeper forces shaping our well-being.” In our conversation Liev shares how he saw through the flawed theories he’d been taught and then we take a deep dive into the main topic - parasites, a topic Liev has studied deeply and written about in his 643-page essay available from his website. Join us for a fascinating conversation about this ‘hot topic’ and find out how little of the information we’ve been told about parasites has actually been proven to be true. We also discuss what we can actually do to help support our health.

    Episode 25: Balance is Key

    In our conversation Chance and I discuss many topics, including how systems of all kinds, especially the political system, swing from one extreme to another and how neither ‘extreme’ is able to actually find solutions. These swings are a pattern we need to recognise to better understand what may be happening in our own lives to bring it back into balance. Chance also talks about biofield tuning and how imbalances show up in our biofield. Join us for a fascinating conversation and a deep dive into understanding why it’s important to recognise these patterns and discern our way out of ideas imposed on us and into a more harmonious flow through life.

    Ep. 24: Diving Deeper Into Critical Thinking and Logic

    In this second conversation with my good friend Jordan Grant (link to our first conversation below), we cover a few more logical fallacies and then dive into a conversation about the difference between ‘scientific realism’ and ‘instrumentalism’. But this is no dry philosophical discussion.As ‘big picture’ people, Jordan and I are both keen to help people understand the importance of getting to the root of the question/situation and of asking pertinent questions, especially in the field of health, in which our decisions can have consequences for our whole lives.As Jordan has said “We have to have a standard for evaluating claims”.Join us for another fascinating conversation about how we can know what we think we know and more…Dawn 🌹Our previous conversation,RESOURCESDr Jordan Grant’s website: https://www.granthormone.com/Thank you for your support. 🙏Podcast music: Unique track composed by Alex Michael, aka Conspiracy Music GuruVideo Intro: Unique creation by Steve Falconer of SpacebustersDawn’s Writings is a reader-supported publication.

    In this wide-ranging conversation, Eileen explains why an understanding of the biofield is so important, especially for our health.

In addition, we covered the energy of food, that ‘Digestion is electrical fermentation’, how we need to actually feel our feelings, and much much more….(Please note: We seem to have been visited by the internet gremlins that gave us a couple of glitches in the early part of this conversation, so apologies for that and for the volume on my mic)Eileen Day McKusick is a researcher, writer, inventor, practitioner, educator, and speaker in the fields of therapeutic sound, the human biofield and electric health. She has been studying the effects of sound on the human body and its electrical system since 1996.Eileen is the originator of the sound therapy method Biofield Tuning, and the Founder of the Biofield Tuning Institute, which conducts peer-reviewed studies on the human biofield.
