Ep. 275 From Harmful to Harmonized With Tim Sandars

Covering the Real Reason Why EMF Harms us, and how we can truly Harmonize the Radiation we are exposed to all day. This brings great, measurable benefits to our bodies. We explore the electrical composition of the body, and how there are balanced electrical fields (like the sun) and imbalanced electrical fields (like EMF), and then demonstrate how Omnia products can reverse many adverse effects in the body that are caused by exposure to wireless radiation.  
Tim Sandars is the Founder of the Omnia Radiation Balancer brand, which offers the best, most provable EMF Radiation Protection on the market. Tim attended Michael Tellinger's Ubuntu Festival in 2019, where he met a maverick scientist who had a solution to all the world's radiation problems. Tim took some product samples, did some extensive body tests to prove its efficacy and built the Omnia brand around this new technology, which he runs from the UK, where he lives in Devon.

Ep. 274 Still Here: Living After the Death of the Psychological Self With Julie Hoyle

What happens when you survive the story you thought would end you?
In this soul-baring conversation, mystic teachers Julie Hoyle and Lisa Gunshore explore the invisible terrain that follows a radical awakening—when the ego dissolves, the “I” dies, and the Self awakens. But what happens after the light? How do we stay grounded in a body, in a life, when the old identity is gone and the soul knows it is infinite?
Together, we share the truth many spiritual seekers quietly carry: the grief of being here, the beauty of being alive, and the challenge of living fully after a part of us has died. If you’ve ever questioned your purpose, felt the tension between spirit and flesh, or wondered how to stay tethered to Earth after awakening to something more, this episode is your mirror.
A conversation for those who have died and come back to life—spiritually speaking—and are now looking for meaning in the middle of the mystery.
