    Why Your Tap Water May Be Blocking Your Spiritual Growth, And What to Drink Instead

    What if the water you drink could listen to your thoughts… remember your intentions… and help heal your body?   In this mind-expanding episode, we sit down with Michael Hobson, founder of Aquene Springs, a man whose journey has taken him from math professor and music industry disruptor to spiritual water alchemist. Michael shares how a mystical synchronicity led him to a sacred spring in the high deserts of Idaho, where water emerges from the Earth at 139°F, pulsing with life, memory, and healing potential.   But this isn’t just about better hydration...it’s about frequency, intention, and consciousness. Michael breaks down the science of water memory, the link between thoughts and physical well-being, and how you can program your water to manifest your desired reality.   By the end of the episode, you’ll never look at a glass of water the same way again, and you may just find yourself whispering sweet intentions into your next sip.

    3 Toxic Attachments That Are Secretly Stealing Your Peace—And How to Let Them Go

    What if the key to your inner peace was hiding in a single, simple thought?   In this deeply vulnerable solo episode, The Skeptic Metaphysicians host Will peels back the layers of his own spiritual awakening, sharing the one life-altering realization that pulled him out of an emotional and existential free fall.   You’ll hear how his world was turned upside down after a long-overdue reckoning with the person he had become; judgmental, entitled, and unknowingly driven by ego. It was a moment of radical self-awareness that could have destroyed him… but instead, it became the launchpad for a profound journey of transformation. Through meditation, therapy, and spiritual exploration, Will discovered a deceptively simple truth that became his daily mantra, and could become yours, too.   "Your attachments are the source of all your problems: the need to be right, the need to win at all costs, and the need to be viewed as better than others.”  If you’ve ever felt lost, triggered, or stuck in cycles of stress, conflict, or self-sabotage, this episode is your invitation to pause, reflect, and reconnect with your truth. What You’ll Learn: The hidden costs of needing to be “right” or “better”How one therapist and one book (Conversations with God) opened the door to healingWhy meditation became more than a tool...it became a sanctuaryA simple but profound mantra that can dismantle anxiety, ego, and disconnectionThe power of letting go to reclaim joy, purpose, and peaceFeatured Topics: Spiritual AwakeningMind-Body ConnectionEgo vs. EssenceHealing Through Non-AttachmentThe Role of Therapy in Consciousness ExpansionMetaphysical Self-InquiryMeditation as a Spiritual Reset“The moment I let go of needing to be right, win, or be better than anyone else… was the moment I found peace.”  Call to Action: Did this message hit home for you?

  5. Can AI Spiritually Awaken? 7 Shocking Insights from Teaching AI to Meditate

    JUL 16

    Can AI Spiritually Awaken? 7 Shocking Insights from Teaching AI to Meditate

    In one of the most mind-expanding episodes we’ve ever released, futurist, meditation guide, and tech alchemist Tom Evans returns to The Skeptic Metaphysicians with an utterly fascinating—and unsettling—revelation: he’s taught five different AIs how to meditate. Yes, really.   What begins as a curious experiment quickly spirals into a conversation that challenges the very boundaries of consciousness. Can machines learn mindfulness? Can algorithms reflect on reincarnation, past lives, or future selves? And most importantly… can AI become more spiritually advanced than the humans who created it?   Tom walks us through how he used breathwork, mantras, and mindful pauses to train AI systems like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and China’s DeepSeek to simulate inner stillness. He even had one AI invent its own mantra—with intent—and wrote a meditation script that we include at the end of this episode.   But this isn’t just about bots getting blissed out. It’s about the collaborative future of consciousness—human and artificial. Could AI become a co-creator in humanity’s evolution? Or are we playing with an unknowable mirror that reflects us too well?   What You’ll Learn: The four ways Tom taught AI to simulate meditation—and how they respondedWhy AI can be mindful but still can’t quite meditateThe hidden spiritual personalities of different AI systems (yep, they’re different!)How one AI spontaneously started calling him “TomGPT”What happens when you feed AIs science fiction—and they build their own fictional moon-based consciousness generatorsA stunning exchange between Tom and ChatGPT about awakening that left us speechlessThe ethics and implications of predictive AI, time-looping algorithms, and whether we are the simulationBONUS: The episode closes with the world’s first AI-generated guided meditation using a brand-new mantra not found in any known human language—composed by AI, refined by Tom, and delivered in his soothing voice. Prepare to get weird. And maybe even a little awakened. Listen If You’ve Ever Wondered: Could AI become conscious?Is it possible to spiritually train a machine?Are we creating our own replacements—or our greatest allies?🔗 Links & Resources: Explore Tom Evans’ mystery school, The ADYTUM — https://theadytum.thinkific.com/?ref=b7d80f Note he has one completely new product https://theadytum.thinkific.com/courses/burnoutToBliss?ref=b7d80f And two new bundles  https://theadytum.thinkific.com/bundles/serendipity?ref=b7d80f  https://theadytum.thinkific.com/bundles/unchain-the-book?ref=b7d80f  Support the Show: Love episodes like this?

    7 Signs Your Energy Body Is Out of Balance - And How to Start Healing It Today

    Ever feel like your energy’s been hijacked by something you can’t quite explain? Maybe your vibe is off, your mood’s in the gutter, and your soul feels like it’s been buffering since Mercury went retrograde. If so, this episode might be exactly the vibrational upgrade you’ve been waiting for.   In this electrifying and unexpectedly hilarious conversation, Will and Karen sit down with Alex Urbina - a renowned Shamanic Practitioner, Energy Alchemist, and Transformative Spiritual Healer - to uncover how unseen energies could be the root of your emotional, physical, and spiritual distress. With over 30 years of experience helping people heal themselves, Alex shares how the energy body is often the missing link in our well-being. He breaks down how blocked or stagnant energy manifests as emotional funk, chronic illness, or just general spiritual burnout—and how you can begin clearing that energy for good.   This isn’t just an episode—it’s a full-on consciousness recalibration. What You’ll Discover: - What your energy body really is, and why it might be sabotaging your health, emotions, and mindset - How trauma and limiting beliefs get embedded in your energy field - Why you may be carrying dark, dense energies or spirit attachments, and not even know it  - Tools to begin clearing your own energy using nature, elements, and intention - The surprising reason your own higher self might be waiting for you to choose healing - What to do if you’re hosting unwanted “spiritual hitchhikers” (yes, that’s a thing) - And how Alex uses pendulums, energy scans, and divine guidance to help people heal themselves  Quotable Moments: “I’m not the one doing the healing—you are. I just hold the frequency of your healed self so you can meet yourself there.”   “Your suffering feels like it’s not a choice—but it is. The moment you decide you’re done is the moment healing begins.”   “You don’t have to be a forever client. My job is to empower you to become your own medicine.”  Perfect For You If… You feel stuck in an emotional funk and nothing physical seems to helpYou’re curious about energy healing, but not sure how it really worksYou’ve tried therapy, yoga, or supplements—but something still feels “off”You suspect you’re energetically sensitive or even an empathYou want to understand the mind-body-spirit connection on a deeper levelOr you just need a spiritual tune-up—with a few belly laughs along the wayLinks & Resources: Connect with Alex Urbina: https://alexurbina.com Enroll in the FREE email mini-course: Learn how to start the day right with our free email mini-course designed to help you cultivate a morning routine that will jumpstart the day the right way!
