    She Left Her Body at 15: Laura Hoorweg on Grief, Mediumship, and the Other Side | Conversations with a Chiropractor

    She Left Her Body at 15: Laura Hoorweg on Grief, Mediumship, and the Other Side Episode Description What happens when your consciousness leaves your body, but you are still fully aware of who you are? At 15 years old, Laura Hoorweg was standing near the edge of a cliff in the Canadian wilderness when she says she suddenly found herself looking down at her own body. Moments later, she was above the Earth, then surrounded by galaxies, before being abruptly pulled back into her physical body. That experience changed the way she understood death, consciousness, and the human soul. In this episode of Conversations with a Chiropractor, Dr. Stephanie Wautier talks with Laura, a spiritual counselor, intuitive coach, psychic, and medium who helps people navigate grief, trauma, burnout, major life transitions, and the patterns that can leave them feeling disconnected from themselves. Laura shares how leaving a 30-year corporate career and suddenly losing her partner led to an intense period of grief and spiritual searching. Her healing journey took her through Brazil, an ayahuasca retreat in the Peruvian Amazon, yoga training in Costa Rica, and a deeply personal trip to Hawaii to scatter her partner's ashes. Stephanie and Laura explore what a medium does, how mediumship differs from psychic work, why some people appear to wait until loved ones leave the room before passing, and how messages from those who have died may help people work through guilt, regret, and unfinished emotions. They also discuss intuition, meditation, synchronicities, fear, discernment, astral travel, remote viewing, and what Laura calls "Schoolhouse Earth," the belief that life's challenges give the soul an opportunity to grow. This is a conversation about grief, the mystery of consciousness, and the question that follows so many life-changing experiences: Are we more than our physical bodies? The experiences and spiritual beliefs discussed in this episode belong to the guest and are shared for reflection and conversation. This episode is not a substitute for medical, mental health, grief, or spiritual care. Ayahuasca and other psychoactive substances can carry serious physical and psychological risks, and their legal status varies by location.

Aleksandra's work helps entrepreneurs, executives, athletes, and high-performing individuals better understand themselves, their timing, and the cycles that may be influencing their personal and professional lives.

This conversation explores natal charts, planetary archetypes, personal cycles, solar returns, free will, timing, resilience, entrepreneurship, and the difference between popular zodiac stereotypes and the more serious intellectual history of astrology.

Mike's work centers on a topic many people do not think about until something feels wrong: the health of the indoor spaces where we live, sleep, work, and recover. From mold exposure and indoor air quality to water filtration, hydrogen water, toxins, detoxification, and everyday lifestyle choices, this conversation looks at the hidden environmental factors that may be shaping how people feel. Stephanie and Mike talk about why modern homes can trap moisture, mold, chemicals, and contaminants, and why some people may experience symptoms even when others in the same home feel fine. Mike also shares practical starting points for listeners who are concerned about mold, including simple ways to observe symptoms, test the home, check humidity levels, and begin asking better questions. The conversation then moves into water quality, including city water, well water, reverse osmosis, distilled water, fluoride, chlorine, heavy metals, glyphosate concerns, hydrogen water, and why Mike believes clean air and clean water are foundational pieces of wellness. Mike also shares more about his own path into environmental health, chiropractic circles, faith, fasting, and the idea that healing often begins when people step outside of the systems that keep them sick and start taking responsibility for what is in their home, their water, their air, and their daily routine. This episode is meant to inform, encourage curiosity, and offer practical starting points. It is not a replacement for medical care, environmental testing, mold remediation, or personalized health advice. If you are dealing with mold illness, chronic symptoms, detoxification concerns, fasting, water contamination, or major health changes, work with qualified professionals who can evaluate your individual situation. In This Episode, Discover Why Mike Dillon believes indoor wellness is an overlooked part of health How modern homes can trap moisture, mold, and airborne contaminants Why mold exposure may affect one person in a household more than another Common symptoms people may associate with mold toxicity Simple first steps for checking whether your home may be contributing to symptoms Why bathrooms, HVAC systems, and humidity levels matter How to think about mold testing and remediation before spending thousands of dollars Why Mike recommends identifying the problem before starting a detox protocol The importance of choosing supplements and wellness products carefully Why water quality matters for adults, children, bathing, and daily exposure How to use public water data as a starting point for understanding contaminants The difference between legal limits and safe limits in water quality What hydrogen water is and why Mike believes it can support wellness The difference between hydrogen water, alkaline water, reverse osmosis, and distilled water Why pipes, plastics, fluoride, chlorine, heavy metals, and other contaminants matter Mike's journey through chiropractic, environmental wellness, faith, and service The role of prayer, fasting, movement, clean air, clean water, and lifestyle choices Why becoming more aware of your home environment can be a powerful first step Stay Connected & Explore Learn More About Mike Dillon and Airwater Healing: Airwater Healing: https://www.airwaterhealing.com/ Use coupon code DRSTEPHANIE at checkout for 10% off your purchase.

Lemongrove Oil: https://www.lemongroveoil.com/ Episode Description In this episode of Conversations with a Chiropractor, Dr. Stephanie Wautier sits down with Dr. Craig Slapinski, a chiropractor and former Palmer College classmate whose career has taken him from the Midwest to Ghana, Nigeria, and beyond. Dr. Craig shares how a love of travel shaped his life long before chiropractic school. From building houses in Mexico as a teenager to studying abroad in London, backpacking through Europe, exploring China, and traveling through Southeast Asia, his path has always included curiosity, adventure, and a willingness to step into unfamiliar places. That same spirit eventually led him to Ghana after chiropractic school, where he worked in a high-volume clinic and quickly learned how to trust his hands, sharpen his adjusting skills, and serve patients with limited equipment and a lot of real-world pressure. Years later, he returned to West Africa with a more focused mission: to bring nonsurgical spinal decompression care to communities where access to this type of treatment was limited. Stephanie and Dr. Craig talk about chiropractic in Ghana and Nigeria, what makes the healthcare experience different from the United States, and how his clinics use spinal decompression, cold laser, exercise, ergonomics, and rehabilitation to help patients dealing with disc-related back pain. This conversation is also about finding your own path. Dr. Craig's story is a reminder that a chiropractic career can take many shapes, and that sometimes the road you end up on is not the one you planned, but the one that fits who you are becoming. This episode is meant to inform and inspire, not replace personal medical advice. If you are dealing with back pain, disc issues, sciatica, or considering surgery, please work with a qualified healthcare professional who can evaluate your individual situation.

    A Place Called Hope: Dr. Francisco Contreras on Cancer Care, Faith, and Integrative Healing

    A Place Called Hope: Dr. Francisco Contreras on Cancer Care, Faith, and Integrative Healing Episode Description In this episode of Conversations with a Chiropractor, Dr. Stephanie Wautier sits down with Dr. Francisco Contreras of Oasis of Hope in Tijuana, Mexico, for a thoughtful and deeply meaningful conversation about cancer care, hope, faith, prevention, and whole-person healing. Dr. Contreras shares the story of Oasis of Hope, founded by his father, Dr. Ernesto Contreras, more than 60 years ago. What began as a vision to care for the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of cancer patients has grown into an international integrative oncology center serving patients from around the world. Stephanie and Dr. Contreras talk about the importance of treating the whole person, not just the diagnosis. Their conversation moves through integrative cancer care, immune support, natural and conventional treatment options, nutrition, exercise, stress, spiritual strength, early detection, breast cancer screening, biopsy concerns, and the role of hope in the healing process. Dr. Contreras also discusses why he believes patients need clear, understandable information when facing cancer. With so much information online, the process can feel overwhelming and frightening. His message is steady and compassionate: cancer is serious, but it does not have to immediately steal a person's joy, clarity, or hope. This episode includes discussion of cancer treatment, prevention, screening, integrative oncology, COVID vaccination concerns, and medical decision-making. It is meant to inform, encourage, and spark deeper questions, not replace personal medical advice. Anyone dealing with cancer, screening decisions, treatment options, supplements, or major health changes should work directly with a qualified medical team that understands their individual situation. In This Episode, Discover The story behind Oasis of Hope and its 60-year history How Dr. Ernesto Contreras helped shape a whole-person approach to cancer care Why Dr. Francisco Contreras believes emotional and spiritual support matter in healing What integrative oncology means at Oasis of Hope Why some natural therapies are studied but not widely approved or adopted How immunotherapy and immune support fit into the Oasis of Hope approach Dr. Contreras' perspective on rising cancer rates in younger people Simple lifestyle steps that may help reduce cancer risk The importance of fruits, vegetables, movement, stress reduction, and spiritual strength Why cancer symptoms often appear after disease is already present Mammograms, ultrasound, MRI, thermography, and early detection How Dr. Contreras thinks about biopsy risk versus diagnostic benefit When someone might consider contacting Oasis of Hope Why clear information matters when patients are overwhelmed The role of hope, mindset, faith, and joy during a cancer journey Stay Connected & Explore Learn More About Dr. Francisco Contreras and Oasis of Hope: Oasis of Hope: https://www.oasisofhope.com/ Dr. Francisco Contreras: https://www.oasisofhope.com/doctor/dr-francisco-contreras/ Request a Free Consultation: https://www.oasisofhope.com/contact-us/ Download Dr. Contreras' Free Cancer E-Book, The Art & Science of Undermining Cancer: https://www.oasisofhope.com/ Episode Sponsor: Learn more about Lemongrove Oil: https://www.lemongroveoil.com/ Connect with Conversations with a Chiropractor: Follow Us on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/@ConversationswithaChiro Follow Dr. Stephanie on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/wautierwellness Email for show-related inquiries and sponsorships: drstephaniewautier@yahoo.com Want to be a guest on Conversations with a Chiropractor?

The conversation also touches on environmental health concerns, including air quality, chemtrails, infrared sauna use, sweating, and how Dr. Ealy thinks about reducing the body's toxic burden. Dr. Ealy shares why he believes the foundation of health education should begin with nutrition, and why understanding the body's energy production can change how people think about fatigue, symptoms, and long-term wellness. Stephanie and Dr. Ealy also talk about the confusion many people feel when trying to make healthier choices. From supplements and red light tools to grounding products and natural healing approaches, it can be difficult to know what is real, what is marketing, and what is worth trusting. This episode includes strong perspectives, challenging ideas, and a call for deeper curiosity. It is meant to inform, spark thought, and encourage personal responsibility, not replace individualized medical care. If you are making changes to your health, medications, supplements, detox practices, fasting, or treatment plan, work with a qualified healthcare professional who understands your personal situation.
