Today we talk about families… and what a pain in the neck they can be! Don’t get me wrong, I treasure my family. I treasure my relationship with my wife, but it’s difficult at times. My kids? They’re awesome; except when they’re not. My brother, sisters, aunts, uncles, brother-in-laws, all that extended family I don’t see much, they’re great too. But like the rest of my family their problems can become my problems. Family issues can become overwhelming. They can send us look for help.<br> Today’s guests (<a href="http://hiddensolution.com/about-dan-booth-cohen/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dan Booth Cohen and Emily Blefeld Volden</a>) are two psychotherapists who help individuals and family systems get back on track. But what makes them interesting, and relevant for Skeptiko listeners, is they’ve shattered the traditional family therapy model by incorporating in the growing, inescapable body of evidence suggesting consciousness extends beyond death and that those who are deceased may still be among us. So, if you thought you had problems with your family — stick around — you’re liable to find out you have a lot more folks in your lineage to worry about:<br> ——————<br> Alex Tsakiris: If we accept what you’re doing, and we accept the reality of [after death communication], what does this say about our relationship with the deceased? In a way it’s hard to fathom. We have enough problems dealing with the relationships of the people who are here with us. Now you’re telling us we have to worry about our unseen intergenerational relationship with some great-great-grandfather we never met?<br> Dr. Dan Booth Cohen: Definitely. It’s a great question and it’s at the core of what we’re doing: the ancestors are not all okay. Some of the ancestors are okay and they’re in a loving relationship with us. But when the ancestors are not okay, and often they are not, they show up in our lives as our symptoms.<br> <br> <br> <a href="http://www.skeptiko-forum.com/threads/should-family-therapy-include-your-deceased-great-great-grandmother-epigenetics-meets-after-death-c.3020/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Click here for forum discussion</a><br> <a href="http://hiddensolution.com/about-dan-booth-cohen/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Click here for Dan and Emily’s website</a><br> Read Excerpts From Interview:<br> <a href="http://www.skeptiko-forum.com/threads/should-family-therapy-include-your-deceased-great-great-grandmother-epigenetics-meets-after-death-c.3020/" target="_blank" rel="noopener"></a><br> Alex Tsakiris: What I heard from you and felt from you is this excitement that you have because you found something that really works.
