David Sereda is the developer of Light Stream Technologies, which uses specially crafted crystal and silver jewelry to increase the voltage of your body. Using quantum information processors designed by David Sereda, Light Stream Technologies infuses crystal jewelry with harmonic information. When tested on aura cameras and volt meter, the results show people who wear this jewelry gain an amazing increase of energy. This is because, as physicists have discovered, information tells energy what to do. The jewelry does not contain any energy like a battery. It holds information, which theoretically harmonizes your body when you wear it. Many people who wear the pendants report personal miracles. Light Stream Technologies The length of this episode has been extended. In addition to quantum crystals, we'll also be discussing the zero point field, unity & one-ness, time travel, UFOs and extra-terrestrial consciousness and more. It's going to be a whirlwind of a show! Be sure to tune in live!!For more info on David Sereda, visit Voice Entertainment

Author Stephen Schettini discusses his book, The Novice: Why I Became A Buddhist Monk, Why I Quit and What I Learned. Schettini, as a middle-class Italian Catholic boy, hitch-hikes from his native England to India to become a Buddhist monk in the Tibetan tradition, from 1972 to 1980. He learns to speak and read Tibetan, lives and studies in Sera Monastic University as the only resident Westerner, and is trained at the École des Hautes Études Tibétaines in Switzerland to interpret and teach Tibetan Buddhism to other Westerners. Eight years later, and after a year in a Tibetan refugee camp in Southern India and a prolonged encounter with austere southern Buddhism, he grows disillusioned and abandons his monastic path.

At the age of five, Johanna became fascinated with math and would sit for hours writing numbers and later creating math equations before she even knew what they were. As a witness to her parents divorce at the age of six, Johanna began applying her math-like perspective to all of the relationships around her - trying to solve for 'ex' and to build an understanding of what truly constituted the human state of nonreconciliation. For the remainder of her childhood and early adulthood, Johanna continued to use her pattern-based lens as a way of understanding the nature of human relationships, the wounds that they carried and the complex configuration and sacred geometry of what we traditionally call 'family.' As the mother of three small children, Johanna was diagnosed and treated for breast cancer at the age of forty-two. With this transformation, her path was permanently altered. With the amazing support of her husband, Rich, she successfully underwent six months of chemotherapy and radiation to treat her cancer. This experience created a phoenix-like experience for Johanna from which she began to identify and excavate what she refers to in her work as her 'lost' and 'true' self that she believes had been buried from her awareness for the majority of her adult life. As an important part of her healing process she began to look closely at her own family story and re-ask the question: Why do so many family relationships break down and how can they be reconciled? The Prodigal Family provides her own unique perspective on this ancient question. Johanna lives in northern California with her husband and three children. Johanna's website is The Prodigal Family

Rev. Mark Pope left home at 13, spent 7 of the next 9 years incarcerated in detention homes, reform school, county jails, a locked psychiatric unit, and a maximum security unit of The Texas penitentiary. After these experiences, he was faced with a life sentence for a crime he didn't commit. He spent the next 6 months in jail awaiting trial and underwent a major shift which manifested in a rather miraculous outcome on the first day of trial. He's not been locked up again since. This experience redirected his attention and life into one of spiritual interests. Mark is now the minister at the Unity church in Sedona, Arizona.

Karen Maezen Miller, author of Hand Wash Cold, discusses how you can fall in love with the life you already have. She is an errant wife, delinquent mother, reluctant dog walker and expert laundress, as well as a Zen Buddhist priest and teacher at the Hazy Moon Center in Los Angeles. Hand Wash Cold has been described as “Eat Pray Love, without all the scurrying FROM something... and reminds us of the precious lives we’ve already been given.” Here's what one listener said: "I heard you (Karen) talk on Namaste blog talk radio and it was very profound. While I am a big fan of Eckhart and have listened to him frequently over the course of 2 years, hearing a female say all of those things about being present, just reaffirmed a lot for me. Thank you."

Dr. Susan Simpson graduated from York University in Toronto, Ontario in 1985 with a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology. She is registered in both Ontario and British Columbia, and has an extensive background in working with individuals recovering from sexual abuse and childhood trauma, substance addiction, depression and anxiety states, stress related challenges, relationship issues, pain management and health issues, as well as trauma arising from accidents and violence. She works with people from all walks of life who seek solutions to life’s challenges. Susan became a psychologist in order to learn the secret of what life was all about and how it all worked: who are we, why are we here and how do we make it better? Always researching for methods and approaches that help people to heal and expand their consciousness, she has trained in a wide variety of techniques including Jungian depth psychology, cognitive psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, breath work, EMDR, meditation and energy psychology. When the traditional approaches of psychology failed to produce answers to those fundamental questions, Susan expanded her search to include the emerging fields of neuroscience and neurofeedback. In 2006, when Susan encountered Brain State Conditioning, she knew that she had found what she had been looking for, the ultimate tool to help people to achieve the fullest potential of who they are. Susan is currently Clinical Director of the Valentus Health Clinic in Victoria, B.C., where a team of health professionals offers a positive approach to wellness based on leading edge technologies. The core program at this clinic is a neurofeedback technology called Brain State Conditioning, which helps people to re-balance their brains so that they can live the full potential of who they are. Susan is very excited about this new emerging field of neuroscience and how our new knowledge can help in expanding consciousness and spiritual growth.
