    #254 Kundalini Awakening, ET Contact and The SoulPod app with Crystal Cassidy

    Host Johnny Burke interviews Crystal Cassidy, a scientist-mystic and founder of Soul Pod, about blending science and spirituality through her spiritual wellness app. Cassidy describes her analytical background in biochemistry, toxicology, and biotech alongside lifelong meditation that led to Kundalini/central channel activation and “oneness” experiences, which she parallels with surrender during her 2020 illness and near-death experience. She recounts premonitions before the pandemic, hospital quarantine, out-of-body states, and an encounter with a powerful, loving guide who worked on her energy centers, after which her intuitive abilities and ET contact accelerated. Cassidy explains Soul Pod as a personalized, structured 21-day journey using breathwork and meditation for nervous system regulation and consciousness development. She frames “New Earth” as a collective awakening into humanity’s interdimensional nature, with ET contact unfolding through grassroots individual relationships and “love and above” frequency. 00:00 Welcome And Guest Intro 00:30 Science Meets Mysticism 02:04 Kundalini And Oneness 03:01 NDE Parallels And Surrender 04:31 What Is Soul Pod 05:46 Building The App Journey 07:36 New Earth And Ascension Shift 09:13 Illness And Near Death Story 13:32 Abilities After The NDE 14:25 ET Contact Begins 15:25 Disclosure And Contact 18:31 Love Frequency Vs Dark ETs 22:18 Who Are The Guides 23:44 Modes Of ET Contact 25:26 Galactic Origins And Ancient Links 27:34 Wrap Up And Where To Find Crystal  http://soulpodapp.com  Support the show

    #253 My Near-Death Experience: Why Death Is an Illusion with Lorraine Kane

    Host Johnny Burke interviews elementary school teacher, Reiki master, and author Lorraine Kane about her near-death experience after a head-on collision and how it reshaped her beliefs and work. Kane describes dying in the car, encountering a brilliant light and a voice that said “ take my hand“, rising above the accident scene with no attachment to her body, experiencing wordless oneness, a life review met with unconditional love rather than judgment, and being given a choice to return after seeing an image of her children. She recounts dying again en route to the hospital, undergoing extensive surgeries, and later hearing guidance and angelic music while recovering. Kane says the experience led her from born-again Christianity to energy healing, past-life regression experiences, and intuitive messages during Reiki sessions, and she argues fear fuels beliefs about death, which she views as a return “home.” 00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro 00:36 The Day of the Crash 01:01 Healing Journey and Reiki 01:59 Impact and Leaving the Body 04:24 Dark Voice and Calling to God 05:25 Light Hand and Out of Body View 07:17 Oneness and Life Review 09:02 Choice to Return and Resuscitation 11:44 Hospital Ordeals and Dying Again 12:51 Angelic Music and Clear Guidance 15:27 God vs Guides and How It Changed 17:03 Early Angel Encounter and Past Lives 19:54 Orbs and Mediumship Awakening 22:59 Reiki Messages and Validations 29:03 Death Is an Illusion 30:56 Where to Find Lorraine https://lorrainekane.com/ Support the show

    #252 Journeys Into Past Lives with Jonathan Robinson

    Host Johnny Burke interviews certified hypnotherapist and Reiki practitioner Jonathan Robinson about his work in past life regression and spiritual hypnotherapy to uncover root causes of fears, anxieties, recurring emotional patterns, phobias, and unexplained birthmarks. Robinson describes how Reiki led him into hypnotherapy, how clients often access past lives (including off-planet experiences), and how sessions can include healing traumatic scenes and exploring the “life between lives,” spirit guides, and the higher self. He shares examples involving an energy-being origin, the Atlantis flooding and migration to Egypt, and a future-life progression set in 2110 featuring advanced transportation and technology. The discussion touches on parallels with near-death experiences, perceptions shaped by familiarity in the spirit realm, and beliefs about UFOs and disclosure. Robinson shares where to find him, his training offerings, and an upcoming hypnotherapy app. 00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro 00:43 Why Past Life Regression 01:49 Reiki Meets Hypnotherapy 03:32 First Wild Regression Story 05:39 Time and Parallel Lives 06:23 Off Planet Past Lives 07:57 Atlantis, Egypt, and Lemuria 11:07 How Sessions Actually Work 12:41 Jonathan’s Own Past Life 14:51 Soul Groups and Life Planning 16:29 Between Lives Spirit Guide Temple 18:26 NDE Parallels and Life Review 19:37 Pastors as Channelers 20:26 Lost Psychic Abilities 22:17 Fear and Demonization 24:02 Demons and Deities 24:42 Spirit Forms and Readiness 26:21 Higher Self vs Guides 27:15 Future Life Progression 28:53 UFO Tech and Disclosure 32:25 Lessons from the Work 35:51 Finding Jonathan Online 38:16 Final Wrap Up https://journeysintopastlives.com/ Support the show

    #251 Somatic Alchemy and Waking Up From The Matrix with Elizabeth Stauder

    Host Johnny Burke interviews post-trauma growth coach and “somatic alchemist” Elizabeth Stauder about integrating somatic trauma reprocessing neuroscience, shamanic ritual, and energy medicine to restore balance and “wake up from the matrix.” Stauder explains somatic alchemy as body-based transmutation of symptoms across physical, emotional, cognitive, and spiritual levels, and links it to dreamtime consciousness and lucid-like agency to work with chaotic dreams. She discusses shamanic initiation dreams, including a “great snake” dismemberment dream, the three worlds (lower/subconscious, middle/waking, upper/higher perspective), and “shaman’s sickness” as initiatory crisis that reveals weaknesses to be strengthened. As a transformation doula, she emphasizes facilitating clients’ own intuition rather than dependency. She shares an ancestral lineage healing example tied to her great-aunt’s death, and describes her neuroscience-based “organic intelligence” training as sustainable, threshold-aware pattern unwinding akin to “psychic surgery,” framing matrix release as shedding old patterns by reintegrating soul. 00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro 00:34 Somatic Alchemy Explained 01:53 Dreamtime and Lucid States 03:16 Making Sense of Chaos Dreams 06:49 Shamanic Initiation Dreams 10:52 Three Worlds and Shaman Sickness 15:20 Transformation Doula and Sovereignty 18:36 Spirit Guides and Early Mysticism 21:04 Ancestral Lineage Healing Story 26:45 Beyond the Matrix Through Healing 32:46 Organic Intelligence and Thresholds 37:04 Animism and Dreamwork Revival 38:59 Closing Message and Where to Find Her https://www.bodyandsoulsanctuary.com/ Support the show

    #250 Channeling, Trance Healing, and Spiritual Awakening with Jennifer Rose

    Host Johnny Burke interviews psychic, medium, channel, and healer Jennifer Rose about her development, emphasizing that anyone can be a medium, but training is essential. Rose describes undertaking “spiritual bootcamp” through development circles, Reiki, trance healing, trance speaking, and nearly 10 years in a physical mediumship group, distinguishing channeling of dimensional beings from trance speaking with loved ones or guides. She reports connecting with angels and, more recently, ETs, while saying she has not experienced negative entities and questioning beliefs about spirit attachments and earthbound ghosts, framing many such experiences as reflections of psychology and perception, moving from duality to oneness. Rose shares a COVID-era spiritual awakening compounded by severe anemia, including prolonged trance states and insights of non-separation and constant connection to spirit. She explains trance healing and “quantum” healing as spirit-assisted processes and concludes with themes of oneness, non-judgment, love, collective transformation, and inner work as a path to broader societal change. 00:00 Meet Jennifer Rose 00:30 Discovering Mediumship 01:48 Training Spiritual Bootcamp 03:05 Channeling Nonhuman Beings 03:52 Protection And Beliefs 04:51 Demons, Curses, and Fear 06:33 Living Near Death Awakening 09:52 Attachments And Ethics 13:29 Ghosts As Inner Reflection 14:42 Earthbound Debate Open Mind 17:03 Duality Versus Oneness Lens 17:58 Different Truths For People 18:15 Mediumship Training Standards 18:37 Past Lives and Present Focus 19:59 Healing Work Explained 20:59 Trance vs Quantum Healing 22:31 Reiki and Spirit Blending 25:09 Miracles and Ancient Parallels 27:27 Core Truths of Spirit 30:09 Paradox and Infinite Mystery 32:12 Love as the Ultimate Test 32:56 Hope, Ascension, Inner Work 35:23 Finding Jennifer Online https://www.mediumjenniferrose.com/ Support the show

Helen describes her 2011 “spiritual wake-up call” with anxiety and depression, years of yoga and daily meditation, and a 2018 kundalini awakening that opened up her clairvoyance and led to the Aura Color Wheel through multiple channeling experiences, including contact with spirit guide Herbert Spencer and visions of Egypt’s Dendera zodiac map with 36 decans. She explains how her spirit message readings differ from mediumship, discusses nine types of spirit guides and star beings, and shares messages about shifting from believing truth to embodying it in the Age of Aquarius.

    #248 Spirit Encounters and Messages from Future Souls with Kendra Lockheart

    Johnny Burke interviews Kendra Lockhart, a ministerial dropout and former professional psychic who now teaches “awakeners” higher mind mastery to unlearn collective programming and normalize paranormal experiences through intuition, intention, and integration. Kendra recounts a group prayer demonstration in a church class where the room crackled with an electric presence and her rent money arrived the same day, shifting the faith of about 45 people. She explains leaving professional psychic work because clients used it as a crutch, preferring a coaching approach. She describes childhood clairaudience, including a disturbing entity in a new home urging her to “come to the other side,” and later sensing earthbound ghosts by temperature changes. Kendra also shares automatic writing and dream experiences with “future souls,” including names she later met and a future goddaughter, plus past-life viewing as an observer, emphasizing discernment and the value of one’s physical-life participation. 00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro 00:50 Church Roots and Ministry Path 02:27 Group Prayer Paranormal Moment 05:01 Why She Quit Being Psychic 07:40 Childhood Spirit Encounters 11:29 Earthbound Ghosts in College 12:19 Training Awakeners and Intuition 15:07 Messages From Future Souls 18:36 Past Lives and Talent Carryover 22:45 Dream World vs Spirit World 26:00 Key Lessons and Life Trust 28:05 Where to Find Kendra OnlineKendra Lockhart on Group Prayer Phenomena, Discernment, and Messages from Future Souls Support the show

    #247 Spirit Encounters and Mediumship Through Tarot with Carly Ann Corrar

    Host Johnny Burke interviews Carly Ann Carrar, a pagan witch, tarot reader, and medium who has seen and communicated with spirits since early childhood, including a frightening Native American spirit in her bedroom and an early obsession with visiting cemeteries. She explains the differences between earthbound spirits and visiting spirits based on the heaviness of their energy. She talks about how her oldest son has similar abilities and how she supports him through spiritual protection, deity-based grounding, and a cleansing spray made with sage, white quartz, and moon water. Carly describes how her Catholic grandmother encouraged her to explore witchcraft, outlines paganism as an umbrella of nature-based and multi-deity paths with links to Christian traditions, and explains how tarot complements her mediumship while she avoids guaranteeing spirit contact. She shares evidential experiences, including remote-viewing-like spirit contact by phone and delivering a therapist’s message from her abuela, emphasizing open-mindedness and the comfort of knowing loved ones remain present. 00:00 Welcome and Guest Intro 00:42 Early Spirit Encounters 02:50 Earthbound vs Visiting Spirits 04:00 Raising a Gifted Child 06:54 Grandmother and Pagan Path 07:53 Paganism vs Catholicism 10:15 Paganism Supporting Mediumship 11:44 Tarot and Reading Style 15:05 Evidential Spirit Stories 17:23 Graveyard Spirits and Moving On 21:36 Skeptics and Open Mindedness 24:20 Wrap Up and Where to Find Carly https://www.facebook.com/MotheringMagick Support the show
