December 2 | The radio show centers on profound discussions about human life, the nature of consciousness, and practical spirituality, emphasizing love as the fundamental essence of existence. The host, alongside Dr. Tim and other contributors, explores topics like forgiveness, perception, and the cultural misconceptions surrounding aging, suffering, and death. They assert that beliefs and perceptions, rather than time itself, are the root causes of deterioration and suffering. The show delves into the Aramaic interpretations of ancient scriptures, encouraging listeners to align with love, challenge societal norms, and practice true forgiveness as a means to clear mental and emotional blockages.
The conversation highlights the concept of “mind energy becoming flesh,” explaining how thoughts transform into physical manifestations through neuropeptides. The hosts advocate for releasing generational and personal patterns of fear, blame, and hostility to access one’s true essence of love. Tools like forgiveness apps and reflective practices are recommended for individuals to actively dismantle the “carbon-based memory” of past traumas and align themselves with higher energy sources. This alignment, they argue, fosters vitality and counteracts cultural narratives of decline. The program also introduces listeners to less commonly explored spiritual texts, like the Gospel of Thomas, and revisits historical misconceptions about sacred writings. The discussion urges individuals to prioritize their intrinsic connection to love and reject the prevailing narratives of fear and guilt perpetuated by societal norms. Throughout, the hosts encourage active participation through live calls, texts, and engagement with resources like forgiveness apps and archives. Book of Thomas – covered saying 85 |

At its core, the episode explores themes of healing, judgment, and the nature of creation, emphasizing the need for self-awareness and inner transformation. The conversations aim to inspire listeners to dismantle limiting beliefs and judgments while embracing their true nature as expressions of creative energy or love. The discussion draws from various philosophical and spiritual texts, including The Way of Mastery, emphasizing that human beings are integral to the flow of creation. Participants are encouraged to abandon rigid judgments and engage with life through curiosity and love. A recurring theme is the interplay between inner peace and external chaos, such as in moments of political or societal turmoil. Dr. Tim Hayes highlights the importance of tools like breathwork and forgiveness worksheets to navigate stress and connect with one’s inner essence. The episode also references Malcolm Gladwell’s The Revenge of the Tipping Point to illustrate how societal changes can occur abruptly after reaching a critical mass. Examples include the shifts in cultural narratives around gay marriage and the Holocaust, demonstrating how media and collective awareness can trigger transformative changes. These insights serve to reassure listeners about the potential for positive change even amidst apparent setbacks. Through anecdotes, philosophical reflections, and practical advice, the episode serves as a guide for those seeking emotional and spiritual growth. It challenges listeners to question their judgments, embrace love as their essence, and trust in the unfolding process of creation. December 4, 2024 second hour The radio show centers on profound themes of self-healing, spiritual awakening, and the nature of perception. Hosted by Dr. Tim Hayes, Jeanie, and Dr. Michael Ryce, the discussion dives deep into the transformative power of forgiveness and the process of uncovering one’s true nature as love.

One segment delves into the Book of Thomas, exploring its uncanonized sayings of Yeshua, focusing on the concept that the physical world is a construct of perception and the past. Dr. Michael Ryce elaborates on how unresolved generational patterns manifest as projections in our minds, often mistaken for external realities. He emphasizes that true healing involves recognizing these projections, taking responsibility for internal dynamics, and using forgiveness as a tool to dissolve these blocks to love. The conversation also covers the importance of personal accountability in addressing inner pain and removing unconscious barriers. Drawing on teachings from neuroscience, philosophy, and ancient texts, the hosts discuss how the mind’s perceptions are often fabrications based on past trauma.

December 6, 2024 summary (Podbean)
The radio show centers on profound themes of emotional healing, self-awareness, and resilience amidst life’s chaos. Hosted by Dr. Tim Hayes, dr. michael and Jeanie Ryce, and others, it provides a space for deep reflections on managing trauma, personal transformation, and tools like mindfulness, breathwork, Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT), and forgiveness worksheets. These practical strategies are shared through stories of personal experiences, highlighting their effectiveness in confronting fears and generational patterns. One key segment addresses the challenge of navigating crises without being paralyzed by fear. Dr. Tim uses the analogy of an overloaded logging truck to illustrate how unchecked stress and worry burden the mind, limiting one’s ability to respond effectively to immediate tasks. Participants are encouraged to slow down, focus on the present, and utilize tools that rewire the brain’s reactions to stress, allowing calmness and clarity to prevail. Caller Susan shares her personal journey, including managing her son Jonathan’s health scare, which sparked discussions about physical manifestations of emotional trauma. The show explores how political and societal dynamics resonate with unresolved childhood experiences, amplifying current fears. Participants emphasize using these moments as opportunities for self-discovery and growth rather than succumbing to despair. The episode also delves into the broader impact of collective narratives, drawing on Malcolm Gladwell’s concept of tipping points to inspire hope for societal change. It reminds listeners that even seemingly irreversible patterns can shift dramatically when perspectives evolve. Themes of community support are highlighted through Susan’s account of hosting refugees. Their resilience and struggles underscore the importance of compassion and connection in overcoming adversity. The discussion ties these experiences to universal challenges of fear, insecurity, and the human drive to find purpose and healing. Word Link: Crisis = Softening Synchronicity. “Why are you cleaning the outside of the cup? It is the inside to be done.” So the objective that Yeshua has is to go to the inside and do the inner work that just naturally produces the outer result. If you’re caught up in the outer following a set of rules for ritual purposes, if you get caught up in the external world and one that hallucinates a healed state where a healed state does not exist, then you want to step back in and do the inner work and bring an awareness and healing to the inner world Book of Thomas covered saying 88 – 89 |

The program provides listeners with free tools and resources designed to foster self-transformation. Key among these is the “Reality Management Worksheet,” a practice developed by Dr. Michael and Jeanie Ryce, aimed at turning negative emotions into a source of guidance.

The show transitions to a detailed discussion of Stephen Davis’s book, Butterflies Are Free to Fly. This work examines the idea of a holographic universe, proposing that each individual experiences a personalized reality constructed by their perceptions.

Summary: The December 13, 2024 episode of MindShifters Radio, hosted by Tim Hayes and Michael Ryce, took a deep dive into the practice of emotional awareness, forgiveness, and personal growth through the use of transformative tools and teachings. The show emphasized the value of the Reality Management Worksheet—a foundational tool for identifying and releasing negative emotions and beliefs. This worksheet helps individuals transition from a reactive mindset to one of self-responsibility and proactive emotional management. The program began with Tim Hayes introducing the tools and resources available on whyagain.org, such as Dr. Michael Ryce’s book Why Is This Happening to Me Again?, downloadable worksheets, and the Heartland Aramaic Forgiveness app. These resources are designed to make these transformative practices accessible to everyone. The conversation also explored the philosophical underpinnings of these tools, citing spiritual texts like The Way of Mastery and discussing the universal principles of love, forgiveness, and self-awareness. One key highlight was a listener’s testimony about how applying these teachings allowed her to detach from long-standing feelings of responsibility for others’ happiness, particularly her son’s struggles. This personal story underscored the broader theme that detachment and alignment with love are essential to personal and interpersonal healing. The hosts shared that unresolved family dynamics often manifest as recurring patterns, which can be addressed by using forgiveness as a means to dissolve inherited trauma and release emotional burdens. Tim Hayes and Michael Ryce also discussed the concept of “holographic experiences,” drawing from Stephen Davis’s book Butterflies Are Free to Fly. This perspective suggests that individuals create their realities based on internal beliefs and patterns. The hosts tied this idea to the teachings of other spiritual leaders, such as Guy Finley and Michael Singer, emphasizing that recognizing and addressing internal dynamics is key to meaningful transformation. The second hour of the show, hosted by Michael Ryce and Jeanie Ryce, explored generational trauma and the physical and emotional barriers to intimacy. One poignant discussion centered on a listener’s realization of her family’s discomfort with physical and emotional closeness, rooted in unspoken generational patterns. This prompted Ryce to explain that breaking free from these patterns requires deep forgiveness and a willingness to address one’s internalized beliefs about love, connection, and worthiness. Music as a Healing Tool: Another significant aspect of the discussion was the role of creativity, particularly music, as a medium for emotional processing and healing. A listener shared how composing music became a vital outlet during challenging times, allowing her to tap into love and coherence amidst personal and family struggles. Ryce highlighted this as an example of using one’s unique talents to connect with the “master solvent” of love, facilitating both personal healing and the ability to hold space for others. Practical Updates: The hosts also addressed technical updates regarding the show’s transition to a new platform, NEDL, ensuring continued accessibility for listeners. They reassured the audience that archives would remain available and encouraged participation through Zoom or email for comments and questions. |

An engaging session centered around themes of self-awareness, forgiveness, and uncovering deeper truths within oneself. Michael and Jeanie emphasized the importance of looking inward, dealing with generational traumas, and letting go of blame, guilt, and unresolved emotions. They discussed upcoming transitions for the radio show, highlighting pre-recorded episodes focused on relationships, communication, and forgiveness to air during their time away. These episodes aim to provide listeners with tools to deepen their understanding of relationships and healing. The episode also touched on the concept of energy and its effects on both physical and emotional well-being. Michael explored the teachings of Yeshua, particularly regarding the principle of sowing and reaping, emphasizing that every energetic action—whether love, blame, or harm—affects us first. He linked this to societal issues like greed, scarcity, and inflation, encouraging a shift toward abundance by giving without reservation. Stories and parables, such as the woman with the jar of meal and the tale of St. Nicholas, were used to illustrate the transformation of brokenness into healing and abundance. The overarching message focused on recognizing one’s purpose and sharing it freely with the world to create a ripple effect of love and healing. In the concluding segment, Michael guided listeners through a powerful breathing and visualization exercise to release tension, connect with their inner light, and extend that light to others—specifically inviting support for Jeanie’s son, Ryan, who faces an upcoming surgery. The exercise reinforced the idea that choosing love activates love in others, strengthening individual and collective healing. Book of Thomas – Covered sayings 94 – 97 |

Explored profound themes of self-responsibility, forgiveness, and living as sovereign beings. Tim emphasized the power of the Reality Management Worksheet, a tool that aids in transforming negative emotions into opportunities for growth. He reiterated that everything we experience originates from within, reflecting the beliefs and thoughts we hold in our consciousness. True change occurs not by avoiding unpleasant experiences but by recognizing and addressing their internal roots. This empowers individuals to reframe their perception and choose love over fear. Michael Ryce continued the discussion by analyzing saying 98 from the Gospel of Thomas, a metaphorical teaching about dismantling the “strong man” within—a false, fear-based self that operates through hostility, blame, and self-destruction. He explained that the mind operates through indirection, meaning conscious effort is needed to redirect destructive patterns into coherent, loving energies. Michael emphasized the importance of daily commitments to nurturing relationships, treating others with gentleness, and maintaining connection to one’s true self as active love. Throughout the episode, both hosts underscored that we are creators of our experience and must take responsibility for what arises in our lives. By releasing judgments, embracing our feelings, and extending love, we move toward healing and peace. The show concluded with practical applications, including breathing exercises, affirmations, and mindfulness practices to align thoughts, actions, and relationships with love.

1st hour https://youtu.be/vgRUKSeKOzE with Dr. Tim Hayes uploaded to YouTube Summary: The first hour of Mind Shifters Radio, hosted by Tim Hayes on December 19, 2024, provided an in-depth exploration of personal transformation tools, philosophies on trust and money, and related spiritual insights. Dr. Michael Ryce and Jeanie Ryce’s teachings were central, focusing on practical applications of the Reality Management Worksheet, available for free on the Why Again website. This worksheet is designed to help users transform negative emotions into guidance tools, improve relationships, and enhance life quality. The conversation encouraged listeners to download and experiment with these tools, either via the website or through a dedicated app featuring interactive forgiveness exercises. Tim Hayes discussed concepts from Steven Davis’s Butterflies Are Free to Fly and The Way of Mastery, emphasizing self-trust, dismantling limiting beliefs, and responding to life’s flow rather than attempting to control it. Davis’s perspective on trust highlighted that peace arises not from trusting others but from trusting one’s “infinite eye,” a metaphor for an inner spiritual guide. Hayes elaborated on the futility of relying on societal norms and external validation, instead advocating for direct experience and personal observation as the paths to inner peace. The session also addressed common misconceptions about money. Drawing on Davis’s teachings, Hayes challenged traditional beliefs about earning, saving, and scarcity. He suggested that money, like all experiences, is created by the infinite eye to fulfill specific life lessons or experiences. This perspective reframes financial challenges not as failures but as opportunities for growth and self-discovery. Additionally, Hayes introduced My Dry 30, an app aimed at helping individuals explore their relationships with alcohol through introspection and self-awareness. The tool aligns with the show’s themes, encouraging deeper understanding of personal habits and choices. The hour concluded with an invitation for listener engagement through questions, suggestions, and feedback, reinforcing the interactive and service-oriented nature of the program. 2nd hour https://youtu.be/LFj3hdRgUC0 with dr michael ryce uploaded to YouTube Summary: The second hour of Mind Shifters Radio, hosted by Dr. Michael Ryce and Jeanie Ryce, on December 19, 2024, delved into spiritual teachings and practical tools to help listeners address internal conflicts and awaken to a deeper state of being. The show, continuing with its mission of supporting transformative growth, emphasized the teachings from the Book of Thomas and ancient Aramaic wisdom, particularly focusing on forgiveness, perception, and the essence of love as a state of existence. Dr. Ryce explained the profound concept of forgiveness, challenging traditional definitions. Forgiveness, he clarified, is not about absolving others but is a tool for removing internal blocks of hostility and fear. He detailed how the mind creates perceptions based on past experiences and unresolved traumas, which can distort reality and hinder personal growth. By employing tools like breath awareness and the Reality Management Worksheet, listeners are encouraged to identify these mental constructs and dissolve them, allowing a return to a natural state of love and presence. The discussion also explored the idea of living as the “presence of love” rather than conforming to external rules or behaviors. Referencing the Book of Thomas, Dr. Ryce discussed the metaphor of “knowing where the robbers are coming from” as understanding the triggers and internalized patterns that disrupt one’s peace. He connected this to practical steps for cultivating self-awareness, including recognizing physical signals such as breath patterns that indicate unresolved tension or trauma. Jeanie Ryce contributed to the conversation by addressing technical challenges and engaging with the audience, reinforcing the importance of community and shared learning. The hour concluded with a guided breathing exercise to help listeners reconnect with their essence of love and release physical and emotional tightness. Book of Thomas – covered sayings 102-103 |

1st hour https://youtu.be/c-k36-z8jtc with Dr. Tim Hayes uploaded to YouTube Summary: hosted by Tim Hayes, featured in-depth discussions around transformative emotional tools and spiritual teachings. Dr. Michael Ryce and Jeanie Ryce have developed a suite of accessible and free tools, such as the Reality Management Worksheet, which has been central to the program’s themes for over 14 years. These tools aim to empower individuals to process negative emotions, enhance relationships, and achieve personal growth. The hosts emphasized using the worksheet to convert adverse feelings into valuable insights and provided guidance on how to access these resources online. The show highlighted various spiritual teachings, including excerpts from The Way of Mastery, which encourages dismantling long-held beliefs to create new, meaningful experiences. Dr. Ryce and Hayes also explored meditation practices, offering practical strategies for beginners to overcome challenges, emphasizing observation over control. Key techniques include focusing on breath, body scans, and detached observation of thoughts. Listeners were encouraged to contribute their experiences live, which enriches the collective wisdom shared on the platform. Other topics included reflections on organized religion, the importance of dismantling judgmental perceptions, and leveraging spiritual teachings to overcome emotional distress. 2nd hour https://youtu.be/vJQ0SWW4kww with dr michael ryce uploaded to YouTube Summary: The second hour, hosted by Dr. Michael Ryce, delved into deeper discussions surrounding the teachings of Yeshua, the dynamics of love and energy, and practical applications of forgiveness. Transitioning into the new broadcasting platform, Needle, the hosts reflected on the benefits of this change, including improved sound quality and accessibility for listeners across platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube. Dr. Ryce focused on ancient wisdom from texts like the Book of Thomas, discussing the true essence of prayer as an act of aligning with divine energy rather than a ritualistic recitation. Using metaphors like a television antenna, he illustrated how proper alignment with love’s energy can foster clarity and connection. The conversation expanded into spiritual purification practices, emphasizing their value when undertaken with intention and humility, rather than as public displays. Another key topic was breaking free from generational patterns, or “carbon-based memory,” which influence perceptions and behaviors. Ryce explained how unresolved familial dynamics often perpetuate conflict and separation from love. Drawing on the teachings of Yeshua, he urged listeners to transcend these inherited patterns through forgiveness—a process of canceling goals and dismantling false perceptions to achieve inner peace. The show also explored the integration of conscious and unconscious dynamics. Referencing Carl Jung, Ryce highlighted the transformative power of making the unconscious conscious to reclaim personal agency. This theme was tied to the spiritual principle of dissolving the ego, or false self, to align with the mind of love and truth. In closing, listeners were invited to explore these teachings further through podcasts and workshops, with upcoming sessions focusing on relationships. The hosts expressed gratitude for the audience’s support during their transition to the new platform and shared plans for continued engagement during their brief hiatus.

Brooke, an accomplished writer and chef, candidly shared her experiences of being prescribed antidepressants at 15 following her father’s sudden death. Her memoir aims to highlight the challenges of withdrawal and the importance of proper tapering methods like hyperbolic tapering, as opposed to abrupt discontinuation, which can lead to severe symptoms and misdiagnoses. Brooke’s story underscores systemic flaws in mental health treatment, including the over-reliance on medication and the lack of informed consent. She discussed how antidepressants numbed her emotionally and physically, leaving her disconnected from her true self and suppressing her curiosity and ambition. Through her withdrawal journey and a year of global travel, she rediscovered sensory perceptions and emotional depth, fostering a profound sense of self-awareness and resilience. The interview also touched on systemic changes needed in psychiatry, advocating for specialized approaches to medicated and unmedicated patients and a greater emphasis on individualized care. Brooke emphasized the role of personal agency, the importance of informed consent, and the need for more holistic and nuanced treatments. Her candid reflections inspire critical thinking about the narratives surrounding mental health, medications, and recovery. 2nd hour on Nedl with dr michael ryce listen to archive on YouTube (https://youtu.be/1UpXO21fk_A) Summary: The radio show opened with Dr. Michael Ryce introducing the second hour of Mind Shifters Radio, addressing themes of spirituality, self-awareness, and purpose. Ryce, joined by Jeanie, explored passages from ancient teachings, particularly the Book of Thomas, drawing connections to modern-day challenges of materialism and cultural conditioning. The central message emphasized transcending worldly success and brainwashing to embrace one’s higher spiritual purpose and authentic self. The discussion also highlighted the historical influence of figures like Frederick T. Gates and John D. Rockefeller in shaping education systems to create “commercial servants” rather than fostering holistic growth. This critique served as a backdrop for examining the broader cultural constructs that often distance individuals from their true essence as beings of love. Ryce advocated for “dying to the world” to reconnect with this essence and align with a greater spiritual purpose. Jeanie shared insights from her personal purpose statement, emphasizing devotion, healing, and the transformative power of love and awareness. Ryce also reflected on his journey from material success to spiritual fulfillment, emphasizing the importance of developing a “spiritual body” alongside the physical one. Both hosts encouraged listeners to engage with tools like purpose statements and forgiveness exercises to realign with their true calling. The show delved into concepts like the “world of perception” versus the “world of creation,” addressing how cultural narratives shape identities and priorities. Ryce called for challenging these narratives, advocating for a paradigm shift where individuals focus on internal growth and aligning with their spiritual essence rather than societal expectations. The broadcast concluded with reflections on the transformative power of breath and love, inviting listeners to integrate these teachings into their lives for deeper connection and purpose.

Wolsak shares his personal battle with self-hatred that lasted for fifty years and the pivotal moment when he turned to “A Course in Miracles” for guidance. This spiritual awakening introduced him to the concept of being the dreamer of his life, leading him to reject victimhood and embrace the idea that core beliefs shape one’s experiences. He founded the organization “Choose Again,” where he teaches individuals to take full responsibility for their lives and heal by transforming core beliefs. Wolsak describes his six-step Choose Again Forgiveness Process, emphasizing the acknowledgment of upset feelings, taking responsibility for them, identifying core beliefs, and replacing them with truths affirmed by one’s loving self. This methodology has helped countless individuals reclaim their lives from limiting beliefs and emotional pain. Wolsak also recounts how his experiences in concentration camps shaped his early life and discusses how he turned profound trauma into an opportunity for personal growth and service to others. The discussion also touches on Wolsak’s therapeutic work in Costa Rica, where he established a healing center in a serene rainforest setting. He highlights the importance of nature in facilitating emotional and spiritual healing and explains how the center operates with a dedicated staff who were once clients themselves.

A significant portion of the episode is dedicated to forgiveness, described not as a pardon but as a process of removing generational and personal distortions that block the natural flow of love.

He also introduces the concept of the “community of love,” described as a universal connection accessible through internal alignment and active presence. The show also includes reflections on personal challenges, particularly in the context of Ryce’s family and their resilience in facing medical trials.

1st hour is a prerecording of Dr Andrew Pleener and Same Here Global – will automatically play on PodBean at 12:00 EST
https://MindShiftersRadio.podbean.com/e/dr-andrew-pleener-and-same-here-global or on YouTube https://youtu.be/7ILr4QP9TPM Summary: Dr. Andrew Pleener, an integrative psychiatrist and founder of the Same Here Psych Alliance, joined Tim Hayes on the “On Your Mind” podcast to discuss holistic approaches to mental health. Dr. Pleener shared his journey into integrative psychiatry, which began with observing the impact of his father’s lifestyle medicine practice and witnessing his mother’s struggle with undiagnosed parasitic infections that caused significant mental health symptoms. These experiences highlighted for him the interplay between physical health, stress, trauma, and mental well-being, shaping his commitment to a mind-body approach. Dr. Pleener elaborated on the integrative psychiatry model, which contrasts with conventional psychiatry by addressing the whole person, considering how lifestyle, nutrition, stress, and trauma affect mental and physical health. He described the transformative power of non-medication modalities, such as breathing techniques, mindfulness, and dietary changes, in restoring balance to the nervous system. These techniques, he explained, complement conventional treatments and empower patients to build resilience and recover from stress-induced imbalances. The conversation highlighted the Same Here Global Mental Health Movement, which emphasizes mental health as a universal concern, affecting five out of five people, rather than the commonly framed one-in-five statistic. Through initiatives like the STAR (Stress and Trauma Active Release) exercises and a global Psych Alliance, Dr. Pleener’s organization connects individuals with integrative resources, training, and practitioners. By focusing on building resilience and addressing root causes rather than just treating symptoms, Same Here aims to redefine mental health care on a global scale. The episode concluded with discussions on collaborative efforts, particularly with Journey’s Dream, to expand access to these life-changing tools. Both organizations share a mission to make integrative mental health tools accessible worldwide. Dr. Pleener emphasized the importance of collective efforts in overcoming stigma and transforming mental health into a proactive, inclusive approach for all. 2nd hour will be a special recording of a workshop previously only purchased through our website (see our newsletter sent November 1, 2024 with details https://conta.cc/40waH3c) As Blog Talk has had issues for the past couple of weeks, I have loaded the recordings on PodBean to automatically play on designated day at 1:00 PM EST Healing Through Relationships Part 1 – worksheet that goes with this workshop is THREE EARLY MEMORIES revised 2017 Worksheet from Healing Through Relationships (PDF format) Will not be available to download – but you can purchase on https://whyagain.org/shop/ https://MindShiftersRadio.podbean.com/e/healing-through-relationships-part-1 support us by purchasing this MP4 at https://whyagain.org/product/healing-through-relationships/ Summary: In the Healing Through Relationships workshop, Dr. Michael Ryce examines the profound ways relationships serve as mirrors for personal growth and healing. He emphasizes that relationships are not inherently flawed or diseased; instead, they perfectly reflect what individuals need to confront within themselves. Through interactions, people are given opportunities to heal unresolved trauma and take responsibility for their emotions and actions. Dr. Ryce underscores the concept of love as the essence of human nature, contrasting it with states of non-being such as guilt, shame, anger, and fear. These non-being states arise when individuals disconnect from their true selves, often projecting unresolved inner content onto others. He explores how the belief systems ingrained in people from early childhood and past generations shape their emotional experiences and behaviors in relationships. This generational conditioning, stored energetically within individuals, perpetuates cycles of unresolved conflict unless actively addressed. The workshop introduces tools for identifying and dismantling these patterns, such as worksheets designed to explore early memories of conflict. By recognizing the resonance between past and present experiences, participants learn to stop projecting blame onto others and instead focus on healing their own internal dynamics. Dr. Ryce connects these teachings to ancient Aramaic principles, which emphasize forgiveness as a process of releasing internal content rather than pardoning external behaviors. Throughout the session, Dr. Ryce illustrates how relationships, when approached consciously, become transformative spaces for emotional and spiritual growth. By owning one’s content and utilizing tools for healing, individuals can transcend patterns of hostility and fear, fostering genuine connection and love. |

1st hour is a prerecording of Dr Pat Ogden and Sensorimotor Psychotherapy – will automatically play on PodBean at 12:00 EST
https://MindShiftersRadio.podbean.com/e/dr-pat-ogden-and-sensorimotor-psychotherapy or on YouTube https://youtu.be/PosWw4guiFM Summary: In this insightful interview, Dr. Pat Ogden discusses her pioneering work in sensory motor psychotherapy, a body-centered approach to healing trauma and relational wounds. Dr. Ogden shares how her childhood experiences and early career as a yoga and dance instructor led her to recognize the profound connection between the body and emotional health. This realization was solidified during her work with trauma survivors in the 1970s, where she discovered that traditional therapeutic approaches often fell short. Instead, by focusing on the body’s responses and implicit memories, she helped clients begin their healing journey. Dr. Ogden explains the core principles of sensory motor psychotherapy, emphasizing how trauma lives in the body and often manifests as dysregulated arousal states, such as hypervigilance or shutdown. By addressing these somatic patterns, clients can reestablish a sense of safety and presence. She highlights the concept of “trauma time,” where survivors feel as though the trauma is still happening, and underscores the importance of helping individuals shift their internal organization to foster resilience and healing. Throughout the discussion, Dr. Ogden shares compelling stories of transformation, including clients rediscovering hope and agency through reconnecting with their bodies. She emphasizes the importance of therapists being attuned to a client’s somatic cues and working incrementally to avoid exacerbating dissociation or dysregulation. The conversation also touches on systemic oppression and the need for inclusivity in therapeutic practices, which Dr. Ogden addresses in her upcoming book. Dr. Ogden’s work underscores the power of integrating mindfulness, movement, and somatic awareness to heal from trauma. Her dedication to advancing the field through research and advocacy continues to inspire practitioners and clients alike. 2nd hour will be a special recording of a workshop previously only purchased through our website (see our newsletter sent November 1, 2024 with details https://conta.cc/40waH3c) As Blog Talk has had issues for the past couple of weeks, I have loaded the recordings on PodBean to automatically play on designated day at 1:00 PM EST Healing Through Relationships Part 2 – worksheet that goes with this workshop is THREE EARLY MEMORIES revised 2017 Worksheet from Healing Through Relationships (PDF format) Will not be available to download – but you can purchase on https://whyagain.org/shop/ https://MindShiftersRadio.podbean.com/e/healing-through-relationships-part-2 support us by purchasing this MP4 at https://whyagain.org/product/healing-through-relationships/ Summary: In the second part of Healing Through Relationships, Dr. Michael Ryce delves deeper into the dynamics of human relationships and their potential for profound personal healing. He explains how unresolved emotions and generational patterns often manifest in relationships, creating recurring cycles of conflict and dissatisfaction. Using the concept of the “file folder effect,” Dr. Ryce illustrates how people unconsciously link unresolved anger, fear, and other emotions to their perceptions of others, leading to strained connections. Dr. Ryce emphasizes the importance of using relationships as mirrors to address personal pain and trauma. He introduces tools like the Aramaic understanding of forgiveness, which involves removing toxic content from one’s physiology rather than pardoning others. By taking responsibility for one’s emotions and recognizing them as internal rather than external issues, individuals can transform their relationships into spaces of growth and healing. The discussion also introduces the idea of creating a “Pagra,” a third entity in relationships that serves as a shared commitment to love and understanding. This concept, rooted in ancient Aramaic culture, provides a framework for couples to navigate conflicts by adhering to a mutually agreed-upon code of conduct rather than relying on personal biases or generational patterns. Dr. Ryce highlights the significance of practicing mindfulness, humility, and love as active presences, helping individuals break free from cycles of hostility and fear. Ultimately, Dr. Ryce encourages participants to embrace challenges in relationships as opportunities to heal generational trauma and reconnect with their true nature of love. Through deliberate practices, individuals can dissolve old patterns and create relationships that foster joy, creativity, and deep connection. |

1st hour is a prerecording from 12/30/2015 Summary of the Work – will automatically play on PodBean at 12:00 EST
https://MindShiftersRadio.podbean.com/e/ms-radio-12-30-2015-summary-of-the-work or on YouTube https://youtu.be/_UHBvZjtQeI Summary: In this session of MindShifters Radio, Tim Hayes explores the transformative power of forgiveness and the connection between human consciousness and the energy of love. He emphasizes that forgiveness, as understood in ancient Aramaic teachings, is a tool for removing internal blockages rather than pardoning external actions. Dr. Michael Ryce’s Reality Management Worksheet is highlighted as a central tool for this process, helping individuals cancel goals and dismantle harmful perceptions rooted in past experiences. Tim discusses how the human mind constructs reality based on goals, beliefs, and past experiences, which can lead to distorted perceptions if driven by hostility or fear. By recognizing negative emotions as internal alarm systems, individuals can realign their focus with their true nature—an essence of love, inclusion, and creation. He elaborates on how repeated use of forgiveness tools not only dissolves emotional burdens but also fosters greater ease and clarity over time. The conversation touches on related spiritual principles, including the concept of humility and the practice of aligning with the highest and best in oneself and others. Tim integrates teachings from various spiritual disciplines, such as the Way of Mastery, to underline the universality of love as the foundation for personal and collective transformation. He encourages listeners to make “new moment resolutions” to reconnect with their true nature consistently, using tools like the Reality Management Worksheet and other supportive practices. The session concludes with reflections on the interconnectedness of all beings and the potential for profound change when individuals take responsibility for their internal states. By consistently choosing love over fear and using forgiveness to heal internal conflicts, people can create a more joyful, expansive, and harmonious life experience. 2nd hour will be a special recording of a workshop previously only purchased through our website (see our newsletter sent November 1, 2024 with details https://conta.cc/40waH3c) As Blog Talk has had issues for the past couple of weeks, I have loaded the recordings on PodBean to automatically play on designated day at 1:00 PM EST MindShifters & Intro to StillPoint Breathing – worksheet that goes with this workshop is MINDSHIFTERS List- revised August 2023 to reflect more accurate wording and directions.

He emphasizes that love, as an active condition of the mind, is not dependent on external circumstances but on an individual’s ability to maintain this state despite life’s challenges. This approach requires identifying and dismantling internal content rooted in fear or hostility, which Ryce explains is often projected outwardly onto others. Dr. Ryce introduces key tools for this process, including the MindShifter technique, which helps individuals uncover unconscious beliefs by engaging with provocative affirmations. This technique reveals hidden mental content linked to personal struggles, such as those involving relationships or money, and allows for its release through exposure to love and awareness. Another powerful method discussed is StillPoint Breathing, a supervised breathing process designed to access and dissolve deeply ingrained generational traumas stored in the body’s energy field. Throughout the discussion, Dr. Ryce emphasizes the importance of breath as a connection to the energy of creation, which he identifies as love. By consciously engaging with the breath and using tools like the Reality Management Worksheet, individuals can address internal barriers and reclaim their innate state of love. He underscores that this work aligns with the ancient teaching to “take care of the heart,” meaning to address hidden internal dynamics rather than externalize blame. The session concludes with an invitation to practice self-responsibility and awareness. By engaging with these tools, individuals can transform their inner lives, reduce conflict, and experience profound emotional and spiritual healing. |

New Years Eve
1st hour is a prerecording from 4/11/2018 Truth Is A Pathless Land – will automatically play on PodBean at 12:00 EST https://MindShiftersRadio.podbean.com/e/ms-radio-4-11-2018-truth-is-a-pathless-land or on YouTube https://youtu.be/gK-EEBAG4J8 Summary: In this episode, the hosts of MindShifters Radio explore the profound idea that truth is a “pathless land,” a concept popularized by J. Krishnamurti, which emphasizes the futility of relying on rigid dogmas, organized religions, or external systems to access spiritual truth. Dr. Ryce underscores the importance of internal exploration and self-responsibility, rejecting the notion that any guru, teacher, or religious institution can deliver absolute spiritual insight. Instead, he highlights tools available through platforms like whyagain.org and mindshifters-academy.org, which help individuals uncover and release internal blocks to their innate connection with love and truth. The discussion includes reflections on generational conditioning and how societal, cultural, and ancestral patterns shape perceptions and emotional responses. Dr. Ryce advocates for breaking free from these inherited limitations through tools like the Reality Management Worksheet, MindShifters exercises, and StillPoint Breathing. These techniques are designed to help individuals access and dissolve unconscious fears, hostilities, and beliefs that hinder emotional and spiritual growth. Drawing on Krishnamurti’s philosophy, the show challenges listeners to examine how beliefs and dogmas can create rigid frameworks that prevent authentic spiritual exploration. The hosts discuss the pitfalls of adhering to systems that prioritize conformity over self-discovery, likening them to “mental pacifiers” that provide comfort without nourishment. The ultimate goal, they argue, is to embrace the unknown and step into a more expansive understanding of existence, free from the constraints of fear and ego-driven narratives. The episode also celebrates the growing acceptance of alternative spiritual teachings, noting how perspectives that once faced significant resistance are now finding a broader audience. The conversation concludes with encouragement to engage in continuous self-exploration and apply practical tools to cultivate love, awareness, and freedom from limiting beliefs. 2nd hour will be a special recording of a workshop previously only purchased through our website (see our newsletter sent November 1, 2024 with details https://conta.cc/40waH3c) As Blog Talk has had issues for the past couple of weeks, I have loaded the recordings on PodBean to automatically play on designated day at 1:00 PM EST Communication Did You Hear What I Think I Said Part 1 – worksheet that goes with this workshop is RESPONSE-ABILITY COMMUNICATION RULES revised 2021 from COMMUNICATION, Did You Hear What I Think I Said? (PDF format) Will not be available to download – but you can purchase on https://whyagain.org/shop/ https://MindShiftersRadio.podbean.com/e/communication-did-you-hear-what-i-think-i-said-part-1 support us by purchasing this MP4 at https://whyagain.org/product/communication-did-you-hear-what-i-think-i-said/ Summary: In the first part of the Communication Workshop, Dr. Michael Ryce explores the distinction between projection communication and responsibility communication, emphasizing the transformative potential of the latter in fostering authentic connections. Projection communication, as explained by Dr. Ryce, occurs when individuals interpret their internal perceptions as external realities and communicate as though their thoughts and emotions are universal truths about others. This often leads to misunderstandings, conflicts, and the breakdown of communication. Dr. Ryce introduces responsibility communication as an alternative approach, where individuals acknowledge their internal realities and express them as their own, rather than attributing them to others. This form of communication requires self-awareness and the ability to articulate emotions and perceptions without assigning blame. He illustrates this concept through practical examples, demonstrating how shifting from projection to responsibility communication can resolve conflicts and build stronger relationships. The discussion also touches on the power of words and their role in shaping personal and collective experiences. Dr. Ryce explains how words not only communicate ideas but also influence physiological and emotional states. He connects this concept to ancient Aramaic teachings, where maintaining “light” or love in one’s mind is crucial for effective communication and decision-making. By choosing words rooted in love and clarity, individuals can enhance their relationships and overall well-being. Dr. Ryce concludes the session by providing tools and exercises for practicing responsibility communication, such as identifying objective facts, acknowledging subjective experiences, and fostering goodwill in interactions. He emphasizes that true communication involves a commitment to understanding and connection, free from the distortions of fear and hostility. and ….
