    The power of lucid dreaming: Insight, transformation and cosmic perspective - Sarah Janes

    This week’s show is with Sarah Janes. Author, researcher, curator, retreat/workshop facilitator and public speaker, Sarah Janes specialises in the ancient history and culture of dreaming and has been an enthusiastic lucid dreamer since childhood. Sarah is passionate about the potential of dreaming for physical, emotional, creative and spiritual upliftment, not just for individuals, but for culture and society. Sarah is co-director and curator of Dream Palace Athens, a symposium and deep-dreaming residency project in Greece. She is also the host of popular online lecture series Explorers Egyptology. Sarah has collaborated with Rupert Sheldrake and the British Pilgrimage Trust to reinvigorate the practice of dream incubation at sacred sites around the UK. Currently leading retreats to the ancient dream incubation sanctuaries of the Mediterranean, Sarah is now based between Hastings in England and Archaia Epidavros in the Peloponnese. Sarah’s book: Initiation into Dream Mysteries: Drinking from the Pool of Mnemosyne explores the history and culture of dreaming in the Western Esoteric Tradition and is available from all book sellers and on Audible. In this show, Sarah and Lian delve into the profound world of dreams and lucid dreaming, exploring how these altered states of consciousness shape our understanding of reality. They discuss Sarah’s lifelong passion for dreaming, the philosophical implications of lucidity, and the potential for personal growth and transformation within the dream realm. They explore the connection between lucid dreaming and hypnagogic states, highlight the transformative nature of these experiences, and share practical techniques for achieving lucidity. Together, they reflect on the role of ancient wisdom in dream practices, consider the cosmic perspective lucid dreaming provides, and emphasise the significance of memory and intention in shaping our dream experiences. We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage. What you’ll learn from this episode: Dreams offer a unique intersection of sleep and wakefulness, providing a space for insight and creativity that taps into our deepest desires and fears. Through lucid dreaming, we can actively engage with these elements for self discovery. Hypnagogic states, those transitional moments between wakefulness and sleep, can be used as a pathway into lucid dreaming, allowing us to consciously enter the dream realm. In this state, we are connected to ancient cultural practices that viewed dreams as essential tools for decision-making and self-understanding. Lucid dreaming is not simply a binary experience but can manifest in varying degrees of awareness - lucidity is a spectrum. By setting intentions, practicing memory recall, and recording dreams, we can deepen our understanding and appreciation of the dream world as a transformative and healing space.

    Being the vessel: Opening to magic, transformation, and power - Aidan Wachter

    This week’s show is with Aidan Wachter, an animist, author, and healer. Aidan has been involved in practical magic since the 1980s.  He is an animist and is deeply concerned with the effects of modern Western life-ways on the human animal, on both physical and spiritual levels.  Aidan views a living magical practice as a path to heal many of the problems we face today and a way of being that is intrinsic to the creatures we are. He is the author of Six Ways: Approaches & Entries to Practical Magic and Weaving Fate: Hypersigils, Changing the Past & Telling True Lies, and Changeling: A Book Of Qualities. In this episode, Aidan and Lian explore the concept of vessels in magic and witchcraft - and especially vessels for self-discovery and transformation. Aidan reveals lessons from a significant breakdown - which he sees now was catalysed by the very work of his book Changeling - which is about this notion of vessels. They discuss the fluid nature of identity, examine the qualities that define a witch, and consider the role of power in personal growth and the impact of reclaiming our energy from misaligned places. We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage. What you’ll learn from this episode: A vessel isn’t just a container—it’s a channel that holds and directs energy, shaping the flow of our lives and the choices that define us. What we choose to hold within shapes our identity and anchors us in life. Power, often viewed as corrupting, becomes transformative when consciously claimed. For a witch, power is an inner resource to guide growth, create change, and hold responsibility. Honouring our ancestors roots us in a lineage that offers wisdom, invites healing across generations, and strengthens our connection to purpose.

    Echoes of the soul: Memory’s role in identity, personal growth & awakening - Anthony Metivier

    This week’s show is with Anthony Metivier. Anthony is the founder of the Magnetic Memory Method, a systematic, 21st Century approach to memorising foreign language vocabulary, names, music, poetry and much more in ways that are easy, elegant, effective and fun. In this show, Anthony and Lian explore the profound themes of memory, identity, and spiritual practice. They delve into the intricate nature of memory, exploring its definitions, implications, and the philosophical questions surrounding it. Anthony shares his fascination with memory science, the various types of memory, and the metaphorical engines that contribute to our experiences. They discuss the limitations of language and metaphors in understanding memory, the relationship between memory and consciousness, and the idea of reincarnation through language and memory. The conversation highlights the complexity of memory as both a scientific and philosophical topic, emphasising the importance of questioning and exploring rather than seizing definitive answers. We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage. What you’ll learn from this episode: Memory is often overlooked in spiritual discussions despite its significance, and yet, it is a powerfully transformative process that shapes both personal identity and our understanding of existence, offering profound insights when explored scientifically, philosophically and spiritually. Techniques like the memorisation of spiritual texts and conscious engagement with myths can deepen our awareness and connection to the wisdom in these texts and stories in potent ways. Philosophical inquiries into memory can reveal hidden aspects of the self, supporting healing and maybe even awakening through the exploration of the role of implicit memory and identity.

    Anxiety: How to journey with it in a spiritual way - Sasha Archer

    This week’s show is with Sasha Archer. Sasha is a hands-on healer and creatrix based in Leicestershire, UK. For over a decade, she worked as a footwear designer for the UK high street, until her anxiety led her down a different path. As she underwent her own healing journey and delved deeper into working with spirit, she uncovered more of the unknown than she was prepared for. Seeking a mentor and guidance, she was fortunate to be awarded a bursary by Jez Hughes of Second Sight healing, allowing her to pursue her training as a shamanic practitioner. After completing the three-year course in 2023, she began offering individual and group healing sessions, integrating her training, personal healing journey, and the wisdom imparted by her guides. Recently, Sasha took part in the Hay House Diverse Wisdom writing initiative, collaborating with renowned authors to share her book idea and develop a book proposal. She’s currently writing a book that supports readers in their healing journey, helping them to reclaim their personal power so they can live a radiant and authentic life.  In this show, Sasha and Lian explored Sasha’s profound journey of understanding and healing anxiety through earth-based spirituality. Sasha reflects on her early experiences with anxiety, the impact it had on her life, and the pivotal moments that led her to explore healing beyond the mainstream. They discuss the significance of intuition and synchronicity, reflect on the healing power of the earth, and emphasise the importance of inclusivity and accessibility in healing practices. We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage. What you’ll learn from this episode: As Sasha’s story shows… anxiety can be understood and worked with, not just overcome. Sasha's intuitive connection to the earth helped her reclaim her power - and this is true for almost all of us. We often receive undeniable signs from spirit that can guide us… we need to learn to trust those synchronicities and follow them.

    The challenges of working with psychedelics - Paul F. Austin

    This week’s show is with Paul F. Austin. Paul is a prominent figure in psychedelics and has guided millions to safe and meaningful psychedelic experiences through his work as the founder of Third Wave. Featured in Forbes, Rolling Stone, and the BBC's Worklife, he pioneers the convergence of psychedelics, personal transformation, and professional success. Paul empowers leaders, creatives, and pioneers to leverage psychedelics for profound personal and professional growth. Paul's expertise also extends to microdosing, a trend gaining momentum. He authored "Mastering Microdosing," a comprehensive guide that seamlessly blends research and anecdotes. It's a transformative resource for leaders, creatives, and healers. He views psychedelics as refined skills cultivated through mentorship, exploration, and purposeful use—critical for humanity's ongoing evolution. As the longest-standing and youngest entrepreneur in this field, Paul's focus on merging psychedelics with professional development is evident in his transformative training program Psychedelic Coaching Institute The program caters to individuals who seek to integrate their psychedelic experiences into their business practices, all under the guidance of one of the industry’s most trusted leaders. In this show, Paul and Lian explore the complex landscape of psychedelics, discussing personal journeys, the challenges of censorship, and the spiritual awakening that can accompany the use of these substances. They delve into the historical context of psychedelics, the importance of reclaiming ancient practices, and the future prospects for legalisation and acceptance in society. They reflect on the need for a balanced approach to psychedelics, advocating for microdosing as a means to navigate the current challenges while seeding a deeper understanding of the spiritual potential of these substances. We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage. What you’ll learn from this episode: Many people are feeling a deep calling towards psychedelics, and at the same time, censorship and legal challenges are increasing in the psychedelic space, and are part of the landscape to navigate. The journey of psychedelics is intertwined with personal and collective evolution - as ever, what’s most personal is most universal. As much as there is a trend to medicalise and psychologise psychedelics, it’s important to remember that at their heart - they open us to the spiritual.

    How to navigate the dark nights and pitfalls of awakening - Daniel Ingram

    What you need to know about awakening… it’s not all love and light! This week's show is with Dr. Daniel M. Ingram, MD MSPH, a retired emergency medicine physician who works to improve the global relationship of science, clinical practice, mental health and the public to the phenomena that might be referred to as spiritual, meditative, energetic, mystical, psychedelic, magical, and related phenomena. To those ends, he is currently the founder, philanthropic supporter, and volunteer CEO and Board Chair of the Emergence Benefactors registered charity, and chief organiser and co-founder of the global Emergent Phenomenology Research Consortium. He is currently involved in neurophenomenological research of advanced meditative states with colleagues at Harvard and has been a participant in numerous fMRI and EEG studies of advanced meditators, including at Harvard, Yale, U Mass, and Vanderbilt. He has published scientific articles in Pediatrics, Child Abuse and Neglect, and the Journal of Medical Toxicology. He is the author of Mastering the Core Teachings of the Buddha, co-author of The Fire Kasina, and co-founder of the Dharma Overground. His work has been featured in The New York Times, Esquire, Vice, Wired, BBC Radio 4, Evolving Dharma, American Dharma: Buddhism Beyond Modernity, Dan Harris’ 10% Happier Podcast, Slate Star Codex Blog, Buddha at the Gas Pump, Meaning of Life TV, Deconstructing Yourself, Spiritual Explained website, Guru Viking, Buddhist Geeks, Cosmic Tortoise, Startup Geometry, Imperfect Buddha Podcast, and many others. In this conversation, Lian and Daniel explored the challenges and pitfalls associated with spiritual awakening, particularly the dark nights of the soul that many seekers face on their path.  This is ancient wisdom that in some modern western spheres has been forgotten and is now being remembered - which you’ll hear can be surprisingly controversial. We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage. What you’ll learn from this episode: Spiritual awakening can lead to significant challenges and disruptions in life - historical texts have long acknowledged the challenges of spiritual practices. Recognising this means we can seek traditions that include guidance and remedies for difficult experiences. Community support and normalisation of experiences can help individuals feel less isolated in their difficult spiritual experiences, and provide help in navigating them.

    Medicine Stories: How to go from dark depression to deeply rooted - Janet Hill

    This week’s show is with Janet Hill. Janet is a modern day medicine woman, a teacher of ancient ways and a bridge between the worlds.  Janet is deeply attuned to the overwhelming sense of unease that is part of modern life - especially for mothers. Her work is devoted to helping mums make profound changes in their lives by learning how to access support from nature, spirit, and ancestral wisdom. The Rooted Mother is the name of Janet’s business, but it also describes her philosophy and way of being in the world. Through this work, she guides mothers through a soul journey of deep transformation so they can access deep nourishment to become the mothers they long to be. Currently, Janet offers her healing work to women on their mothering journey through tarot ceremonies, healings, and individual coaching.  Janet is the co-creator of The Cherished Mother, where Kate and Janet guide women on a devotional healing journey through their wounds, fears and longings  to wholeness. In this show, Janet and Lian explored the profound journey of transformation from a depressed and fearful accountant to adeeply rooted medicine woman, that Janet has undergone over the past four years with Be Mythical. They discuss the initial fears and darkness Janet faced, particularly surrounding her calling to become a coach and then a shamanic healer, and how, as she began to uncover her patterns, she gained a deeper understanding of herself. The conversation delves into the impact of significant losses in Janet's life, her understanding of spirituality, her shamanic sickness, and how her wounds have shaped her ability to heal others. They also touch on the importance of motherhood and the connection to the earth and the elements in healing, emphasising the need for deeper spiritual connections in today's world - for all of us, not just those of here to guide and heal others. We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage. What you’ll learn from this episode: Descending into our deepest wounds and facing our fears can lead to profound understanding and healing. The darkness we fear can become our greatest teacher. As Janet’s story shows, an echo of the archetype of the Wounder Healer, understanding one's own wounds is often essential for healing others. Discovering and embracing our unique path can be the only way to self-gnosis and healing for some of us - as was the case for Janet.
