A significant part of the discussion centered on how people engage with the Reality Management Worksheet in group settings versus individual use. Tim reflected on how group work often leads to deeper honesty and effectiveness in processing emotions, using the example of a past participant, Harry, who found he was more truthful about his struggles when surrounded by others. This discussion evolved into a broader exploration of the MindShifter support groups, which have existed for over 14 years, offering a space for people to apply and discuss these transformational tools.

Tim then introduced a reading from A Course in Miracles, focusing on the concept of freedom of the mind versus freedom of the body. A discussion with a caller, Susan Bingham, delved into how perceptions of physical limitations influence mental and emotional states. They explored a case study of Ray, a man imprisoned for manslaughter, who found inner peace through spiritual study, contrasting his internal freedom with the lingering resentment of his victim’s parents. This led to a broader discussion on how suffering is often a product of mental constructs and personal meaning-making, rather than external reality.

Susan shared a personal reflection on emotional baggage from childhood experiences, specifically a memory of harming animals in her youth. This triggered a discussion about self-forgiveness, the impact of past actions on present self-worth, and how cultural and religious conditioning can reinforce unnecessary guilt. Tim emphasized that negative self-judgment is an illusion, encouraging Susan to explore techniques like EFT tapping, breathwork, and reality management worksheets to reframe her perspective. He also referenced concepts from Guy Finley, Louise Hay, and Michael Singer, reinforcing the idea that self-limiting beliefs can be challenged and transformed.

The show concluded with a reminder that self-awareness and forgiveness are key to emotional liberation. Tim encouraged listeners to question their negative thoughts and recognize their intrinsic value beyond past mistakes. He reaffirmed the central message of the show: “We come from love, we are made of love, and everything else is false.”

Summary of Part 1: The Empowered to Heal workshop redefines health as a natural state achieved through love and conscious awareness, rather than the absence of disease. It challenges conventional medicine’s focus on illness, arguing that mind energy shapes physical reality. Negative emotions like fear and anger disrupt the body’s balance, while love and forgiveness restore well-being.

The speaker explains that disease results from internal imbalances rather than external agents, with bacteria acting as a cleanup crew rather than the cause. Perception plays a key role in shaping experiences—those who focus on fear attract negativity, while those who embrace love create healing. Forgiveness, in its Aramaic meaning, is presented as a tool for clearing false realities from the mind, allowing individuals to break free from past trauma.

The workshop also explores Jesus’ original teachings, emphasizing inner transformation rather than external religious doctrine. By aligning with love, practicing conscious creation, and taking responsibility for their energy, individuals can heal themselves and live in harmony. The key message is that true health and fulfillment come from within.

A significant portion of the show was dedicated to reading and discussing A Course in Miracles, particularly its teachings on mental and spiritual freedom. The conversation explored how people often equate freedom with physical circumstances, yet true liberation comes from mastering the mind. Tim referenced a story from the book about a prisoner named Ray, who, despite being physically confined, had achieved inner peace and growth through spiritual study. In contrast, the parents of the woman he accidentally killed remained emotionally imprisoned by their anger and quest for retribution. This led to a broader discussion on how resentment, guilt, and victimization can trap individuals far more than any physical barrier.

The show also touched on the power of perspective in shaping personal experience. Tim recounted teachings from Ram Dass, Dr. Stephen Hawking, and A Course in Miracles, emphasizing that while external circumstances may be restrictive, our thoughts define our reality. He stressed that those who focus on lack and suffering will perpetuate these experiences, whereas individuals who cultivate gratitude and inner peace will experience true abundance. The conversation also addressed how financial struggles, relationships, and daily inconveniences like traffic lights can either be sources of frustration or opportunities for mental clarity, depending on how one chooses to perceive them.

A compelling section of the show focused on Guy Finley’s philosophy on fear and self-liberation, reinforcing the idea that freedom from fear is the ultimate liberation. Tim highlighted how negative self-talk and limiting beliefs create mental prisons, preventing people from embracing their full potential. He urged listeners to examine their habitual thought patterns and consider shifting their focus toward self-acceptance, gratitude, and personal empowerment. Using examples from his own life, he illustrated how training the mind to seek positive solutions can transform challenges into rewarding experiences.

The show concluded with a reading from Joseph Campbell’s “Hero’s Journey” and a story about Indra, the king of the gods, which underscored the importance of self-awareness and humility. Tim reinforced the idea that everyone has a role to play, and true fulfillment comes not from striving for superiority but from embracing one’s authentic self. As always, he ended with the affirmation: “We come from love, we are made of love, and everything else is false.”

Summary of Part 2: The Empowered to Heal workshop explores the power of thought, energy, and perception in shaping health and well-being. It emphasizes that negativity, reinforced by media and societal conditioning, distorts reality and perpetuates cycles of suffering. Individuals must take responsibility for their consciousness, as emotions like fear and anger create energetic imbalances that manifest as illness.

Forgiveness is presented as a tool for removing toxic perceptions and realigning with love, rather than excusing others. The workshop reinterprets biblical teachings, particularly the Beatitudes, as practical steps for mental and emotional healing. It highlights personal responsibility in shaping reality, urging participants to let go of ego-based identities and conditioned thought patterns.

The discussion also examines the power of words and the importance of speaking in ways that uplift rather than reinforce negativity. Ultimately, the workshop teaches that healing begins within—by choosing love, practicing forgiveness, and embracing conscious awareness, individuals can transform their lives and contribute to healing the world.

During the show, Dr. Hayes read from Alan Cohen’s book on A Course in Miracles, discussing the concept of the Hero’s Journey and how it parallels spiritual transformation. He explained that Joseph Campbell’s version of the Hero’s Journey describes a path where individuals face challenges, conquer fears, and ultimately bring their knowledge back to their community. However, A Course in Miracles challenges the idea of a continuous journey, suggesting that enlightenment is simply a recognition of one’s true nature rather than an ongoing process. The discussion explored how duality and ego-driven pursuits often trap people in cycles of suffering, whereas shifting from self-serving goals to service-based intentions can lead to greater fulfillment.

In the latter part of the show, Dr. Hayes addressed audience engagement issues, mentioning technical difficulties with the Needle live streaming notifications. He encouraged listeners to participate more actively in discussions, noting that the best episodes come from direct audience interaction. He also invited suggestions for future guests and spiritual authors to be featured on the show. As the session concluded, he reflected on the teachings of Dr. Michael Ryce, particularly the concept of spending the early years of life chasing materialistic goals before realizing the need for deeper spiritual fulfillment.

2nd hour is pre-recorded workshop “Mind Body Bio-Energetics” – an interview between Dr Rabin and dr michael ryce – is scheduled to automatically play on Podbean – have the app downloaded and mark MindShifters Radio as a favorite or follow and you will be notified when it begins.

Summary of this interview: The MindBodyBio interview with Dr. Michael Ryce explores the deep connection between thoughts, emotions, and physical health. He explains that disease is not caused by external factors like bacteria but by energy imbalances created through negative emotions such as anger and fear. Conversely, love and forgiveness activate healing energy, restoring balance to the body.

Dr. Ryce delves into the Aramaic roots of key spiritual teachings, clarifying that “sin” means being “off the mark” energetically, and that forgiveness is a tool for clearing destructive thought patterns. He emphasizes personal responsibility in healing, shifting from blame to self-awareness and growth. Relationships often mirror unresolved emotional wounds, and by recognizing and addressing these patterns, individuals can transform conflicts into opportunities for healing.

The workshop also critiques societal conditioning, highlighting how media-driven fear and hostility contribute to illness. Dr. Ryce challenges conventional justice systems, arguing that punishment perpetuates harm rather than resolving the emotional pain that drives destructive behavior. He concludes that staying connected to love and practicing forgiveness daily are essential for sustaining health and personal transformation.

Throughout the episode, Dr. Hayes underscores the importance of mindful breathing, self-reflection, and conscious emotional regulation. He shares insights from The Way of Mastery and explores how the Beatitudes, when interpreted through an Aramaic lens, provide a framework for inner transformation. The discussion emphasizes how unresolved emotions and unconscious beliefs shape personal experiences and relationships, often leading to cycles of stress and suffering. By engaging with these tools, individuals can shift their mindset, break negative patterns, and experience life from a more empowered and connected perspective.

A key theme in the show is the connection between emotional healing and spiritual awareness. Dr. Hayes and his guest, Susan Bingham, discuss the significance of synchronicities and how a shift in perception can reveal the abundance of positive experiences happening all around us. Susan shares personal anecdotes about unexpected moments of grace, illustrating how staying open and receptive to life’s unfolding events can lead to profound realizations. Their conversation also touches on the importance of addressing suppressed emotions, particularly in the form of nightmares, which often serve as unfiltered reflections of unresolved trauma.

Listeners are encouraged to actively apply these tools in their daily lives and participate in ongoing support groups, which provide a space for deeper exploration and community connection. Dr. Hayes reminds the audience that true transformation comes from shifting one’s focus from external blame to internal awareness. The episode concludes with a reaffirmation that we are inherently beings of love and that embracing this truth can dissolve fear, suffering, and disconnection.

2nd hour is pre-recorded workshop “Naturopathic Keys To Health” Part 1 – is scheduled to automatically play on Podbean – have the app downloaded and mark MindShifters Radio as a favorite or follow and you will be notified when it begins.

Summary of Part 1: The Naturopathic Keys to Health workshop explores health as an energy system rather than just a physical state. It emphasizes that true well-being is created by aligning with natural laws, rather than merely preventing disease. The speaker critiques conventional medicine’s focus on illness, arguing that attention to disease can actually reinforce it. Instead, individuals should focus on fostering health through conscious choices.

The workshop highlights how thoughts and emotions directly impact physical health. Research from cell biologist Bruce Lipton supports the idea that negative emotions, such as fear and anger, generate harmful chemicals that weaken the body, while love and joy promote healing. The speaker explains that forgiveness, in its Aramaic meaning, is a tool for removing toxic thought patterns, restoring balance, and preventing disease.

Nutrition is another key focus, with a critique of modern food practices that strip nutrients from food, leading to widespread health issues. The speaker warns against refined sugar and processed foods, emphasizing the importance of whole, nutrient-rich foods for digestion and energy. Hydration is also discussed, with dehydration identified as a major contributor to aging and disease.

The importance of breathwork is explored, with techniques like Still Point Breathing introduced as tools for releasing stored trauma and emotional blockages. The speaker also explains the role of detoxification in maintaining health, advocating for proper elimination habits and lifestyle choices that support the body’s natural cleansing processes.

The workshop concludes by contrasting the law of entropy, which leads to decline, with the law of ectopy, which promotes renewal and healing. It reinforces the idea that staying connected to love leads to regenerative health, while fear and hostility accelerate degeneration. The key takeaway is that individuals have the power to create their own health by aligning their thoughts, emotions, and actions with life-sustaining principles.

The conversation shifts to Susan’s hip pain, which she connects to emotional stress about her son and his family moving away. Referencing Louise Hay’s work, she considers whether her difficulty facing the future is manifesting physically. Dr. Hayes affirms that significant life changes often cause tension, which can lead to physical symptoms. He encourages her to use self-exploration tools like “wake-up sheets” to process her emotions and possibly alleviate her pain. He also introduces the work of Dr. John Sarno, who attributes chronic pain to emotional tension rather than structural damage, suggesting that addressing emotional distress may reduce physical symptoms.

The discussion extends into group dynamics, particularly how communities handle individuals who call in frequently. Susan expresses guilt for participating so often, but Dr. Hayes reassures her that many listeners benefit from her questions and experiences. He explains that groups, if they last long enough, reach a stage where they may identify a “scapegoat,” and how such dynamics can determine the health of a community. Rather than suppressing dissenting voices, he argues that fostering an inclusive environment where all contributions are valued makes the group stronger.

As the show closes, Dr. Hayes underscores the importance of living the principles they discuss rather than merely speaking about them. He reminds listeners that embracing love, openness, and inquiry can lead to deeper personal healing and a stronger community. The program concludes with his signature affirmation that “we come from love, we are made of love, and everything else is false.”

Summary of Part 2: The Naturopathic Keys to Health workshop emphasizes the importance of aligning with natural laws to maintain optimal well-being. It challenges conventional medicine’s reliance on medication and instead promotes health through proper hydration, nutrition, detoxification, and breathwork.

The speaker highlights how stimulants like caffeine and sugar deplete the body’s energy, while real vitality comes from cellular hydration and balanced pH levels. Excessive protein consumption, particularly from animal sources, is criticized as unnecessary and disruptive to the body’s natural balance. Detoxification is presented as crucial, with fasting and conscious elimination habits aiding in clearing accumulated toxins.

The workshop also explores food combinations, warning against mixing proteins and starches due to their conflicting digestive needs. Artificial additives, including sweeteners and preservatives, are identified as harmful, contributing to overeating and disease. Sunlight is encouraged for natural vitamin D3 production, countering the misconception that it should be avoided.

Breathwork is introduced as a tool for releasing stored trauma and emotional blockages. The session concludes with a reminder that true health is a result of conscious choices, not medical intervention. By embracing whole foods, hydration, detoxification, and mindful breathing, individuals can reclaim their vitality and long-term wellness.

A central theme of the discussion was judgment and its impact on perception. Hayes read from Alan Cohen’s book A Course in Miracles: When Love Becomes a Way of Life, which explores the way judgment distorts reality. Cohen argues that judgment is a temporary and often misleading snapshot of people or situations. Through a series of anecdotes, Hayes illustrated how shifting perception can transform an adversary into a friend or a bad situation into a blessing. He shared a story about witnessing a man behave aggressively at a snack bar, only to later observe the same man showing kindness to a deer. This shift in perception highlighted how quickly judgments can change based on context.

Hayes also explored how deeply ingrained societal judgments shape personal identity and behavior. He discussed how cultural conditioning teaches people to adopt biases about themselves and others, reinforcing ideas of right and wrong that may not be accurate. He referenced A Course in Miracles, which teaches that judgment is a self-imposed form of suffering and that true healing comes from releasing judgment altogether. The text suggests that the “last judgment” is not a divine condemnation but rather the moment when a person chooses to stop judging.

To further illustrate this concept, Hayes shared philosophical stories that challenge conventional thinking. One was about a farmer whose luck seemed to change unpredictably with each new event, emphasizing the idea that good and bad are subjective and constantly shifting. Another was about a king who imprisoned his friend for saying “this is good” after the king lost a finger—only to later realize that losing the finger had saved his life. These stories reinforced the idea that life events should not be hastily labeled as good or bad, as their true impact is often revealed over time.

Hayes also highlighted the physiological and psychological effects of judgment. He quoted teachings from The Way of Mastery, which state that judgment disrupts cellular function and weakens the immune system. He urged listeners to practice non-judgment as a way to reduce suffering, emphasizing that every judgment adds unnecessary distress to life’s natural challenges. He suggested that instead of resisting emotions like anger and sadness, people should view them as signals that their thought patterns may need adjustment.

The episode concluded with a discussion about non-judgment and blessing as complementary forces. A caller, Celinda, shared Rumi’s poetry, emphasizing the idea that stepping beyond judgment leads to greater spiritual insight. The conversation reinforced the importance of remaining open-minded and observant rather than clinging to rigid beliefs. Hayes encouraged listeners to engage with the material, ask questions, and practice mindfulness to shift their perception and reduce suffering in their lives.

The second hour hosted by Dr. Michael Ryce, focused on several core themes related to self-awareness, emotional healing, and relationship transformation. Dr. Ryce began the episode by addressing the conclusion of a recent Quantum StillPoint event in Bristol, which had been an intensive healing experience for participants. He invited listeners to engage by calling in or typing in the chat, emphasizing the show’s interactive nature. He also mentioned updates to their website and upcoming in-person intensives, particularly a Why Is This Happening to Me Again? event scheduled for May in Abingdon, Virginia. Additionally, he shared a personal update about traveling to visit his newborn grandson, James Michael James Albus Ryce.

A significant portion of the discussion revolved around an email question regarding the health effects of electromagnetic frequencies (EMF) and artificial light exposure. A listener had inquired whether Dr. Ryce’s forgiveness technique could mitigate these environmental stressors. Dr. Ryce used this as a launching point to discuss the nature of denial and perception, arguing that external events do not cause fear or discomfort but rather resonate with internal unresolved emotions. He emphasized that shifting from denial to awareness allows for healing and that maintaining the active presence of love—what he described as the essence of human life—could protect individuals from environmental harm. He referenced the work of Dr. Jack Kruse, a neurosurgeon warning about light toxicity, and advised listeners to focus on inner healing rather than external fears.

Another major topic addressed a listener’s email about a struggling marriage. The writer expressed concern about a spouse who had changed from being spiritually aligned to secretive and dishonest. Dr. Ryce and Jeanie Shaw both provided insights, with Jeanie advising the listener to examine their own patterns of self-worth and emotional responses. Dr. Ryce elaborated on the nature of co-dependent relationships, explaining that we attract partners who mirror unresolved issues within us. He recommended shifting from blame-based communication to responsibility-based dialogue, where individuals own their feelings rather than projecting them onto their partner. He also introduced tools such as the Personal Code Evaluation, Healing Through Relationships workshop, and Communication: Did You Hear What I Think I Said? program to help listeners navigate relational challenges.

Throughout the episode, Dr. Ryce referenced scientific concepts to support his teachings, including Marcel Vogel’s work with the Delaware Camera, which he used to illustrate how thoughts create energy fields that influence reality. He argued that our thoughts project energetic patterns, shaping our experiences and attracting circumstances that resonate with unresolved emotional content. He emphasized that true healing comes from removing generational emotional burdens rather than suppressing or denying them.

The show concluded with Dr. Ryce reinforcing the importance of maintaining rakhma—an Aramaic concept of keeping the heart open to love—to navigate life’s challenges. He encouraged listeners to take responsibility for their healing, use forgiveness as a transformational tool, and cultivate a consciousness rooted in love rather than fear. The episode served as a deep dive into self-healing, perception, and personal responsibility in relationships, offering practical tools for emotional and spiritual growth.

A key theme of the discussion was the importance of judgment—or rather, the negative impact of judgment on perception. Referencing teachings from A Course in Miracles, Tim Hayes emphasized how judgment distorts reality, leading to unnecessary emotional tension and reactive decision-making. The conversation explored how personal biases and unresolved emotional baggage can cloud judgment, reinforcing false narratives about oneself and others. By learning to discern rather than judge, individuals can cultivate greater clarity and a more peaceful state of mind.

The episode also touched on the intersection of mind and body, particularly how stress and emotional repression manifest as physical ailments. One caller shared her experiences of dealing with physical discomfort and the deeper emotional triggers behind them, leading to a broader discussion about how unresolved trauma can resurface in different ways. The conversation reinforced the idea that healing is a multifaceted process requiring both physical and emotional work. Techniques like EFT tapping, breathwork, and guided self-inquiry were highlighted as effective methods for releasing stored tension.

Additionally, the role of the medical field in perpetuating a mechanistic view of health was discussed. Dr. Robert C. Smith’s work was referenced, particularly his insights on the flawed separation of mind and body in traditional medicine. The host and callers explored how medical training often disregards the emotional and psychological components of health, leading to a narrow and often ineffective approach to treatment. The importance of holistic and integrative approaches was emphasized as a necessary shift in modern healthcare.

Throughout the episode, the importance of mindfulness, willingness, and self-reflection was underscored. Tools such as the Reality Management Worksheet and MindShifters were encouraged as daily practices for those seeking to unravel unconscious patterns and align their lives with love and compassion. By addressing deep-seated emotional wounds and challenging conditioned beliefs, individuals can reclaim their inner peace and cultivate a more authentic, fulfilling existence.

The 2nd hour hosted by Dr. Michael Ryce, focused on the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit, particularly through the lens of 1st-century Aramaic forgiveness teachings. Dr. Ryce opened the show with personal updates before delving into a discussion on how neuroscience and quantum physics align with ancient wisdom regarding emotional and physical healing. The conversation touched on the works of Candace Pert, particularly her research on neuropeptides and the idea that our body functions as our subconscious mind.

A key theme of the episode was the distinction between the conscious, subconscious, and unconscious mind. Dr. Ryce argued that much of what people perceive as the subconscious is actually unconscious—hidden patterns of thought and trauma that shape behavior without awareness. He emphasized the role of breathwork in accessing and releasing these unconscious blocks, describing the unconscious mind as an unnatural state formed through cultural conditioning and personal suppression. Through self-awareness, proper breathing techniques, and forgiveness work, individuals can begin to clear destructive thought patterns stored at the cellular level.

Another focal point was the discussion of prayer, where Dr. Ryce clarified the difference between true prayer and the common misconception of prayer as petitioning a higher power for favors. He described prayer as a process of aligning oneself with divine energy—an active engagement rather than a passive request. Meditation, in contrast, was framed as a more receptive and still state of being. He urged listeners to embrace a lifestyle where they continuously attune themselves to love, the foundational energy of human existence, rather than allowing fear and hostility to dominate their internal landscape.

The show also included an engaging caller segment in which a listener explored the metaphysical implications of Satan as an energetic force rather than a personified being. Dr. Ryce reinforced that resistance and denial, often culturally instilled, keep people from fully realizing their potential and accessing true healing. The conversation expanded into the philosophy of chiropractic medicine, quantum healing, and holistic approaches that view the body as an energy system rather than merely a biological machine.

Overall, the episode was a deep dive into how ancient spiritual wisdom converges with modern neuroscience, quantum physics, and holistic health practices. Dr. Ryce emphasized that true healing and transformation come from within by shifting thought patterns, engaging in breathwork, and embodying love. His approach encourages listeners to actively participate in their own healing, fostering an understanding of their mind-body connection and the power of forgiveness.

During the broadcast, Tim Hayes discussed the importance of self-awareness and emotional management in navigating life’s challenges. He shared insights into how unresolved emotional trauma can manifest as physical pain, referencing the work of Dr. John Sarno on Tension Myoneural Syndrome (TMS). Hayes explained how emotions such as stress, anger, or fear can lead to muscle tension, pain, and even chronic conditions. He suggested that listeners practice tools like the Reality Management Worksheet, EFT tapping (Emotional Freedom Techniques), and neuro-emotional techniques to release stored trauma and improve overall well-being.

Another key theme of the episode was the exploration of consciousness, perception, and reality, including a discussion about the work of Anil Seth, a neuroscientist studying perception. Julia, a caller, questioned Seth’s views on life after death, prompting a discussion about near-death experiences (NDEs). Hayes referenced Eben Alexander, a neurosurgeon who had an NDE and wrote the book Proof of Heaven, as well as Anita Moorjani, who also had a transformative NDE and shared her insights in Dying to Be Me. Hayes emphasized that many personal experiences and synchronicities contradict the purely materialistic view of consciousness and that spiritual awareness can provide profound healing.

Throughout the episode, the concept of non-resistance was explored, particularly in relation to pain and emotional distress. Hayes shared insights from A Course in Miracles, suggesting that rather than fighting pain or negative experiences, individuals should welcome them with curiosity, viewing them as opportunities for learning and growth. He advised listeners to ask, “What is mine to do here?”—a mindset that fosters acceptance, self-compassion, and deeper healing.

Towards the end of the show, Hayes reiterated the importance of self-responsibility in emotional processing. He encouraged listeners to use mindfulness, breathwork, and forgiveness techniques to shift their perspectives on pain and suffering. He also recommended Brad Yates’ EFT tapping videos on YouTube as a valuable resource for addressing various emotional and physical challenges.

2nd hour hosted by Dr. Michael Ryce, who began by sharing his joy at spending time with his granddaughter Kaylee Joe and his newly met grandson in Kansas City. He acknowledged being late to the show due to family time and invited listeners to join the discussion with their questions or insights.

One of the primary discussions involved Susan Bingham, who shared her experience of dealing with scar tissue from a recent hernia surgery, which had restricted her mobility and affected her ability to teach. She emphasized that while physical pain is a nuisance, it is nothing compared to emotional distress such as anxiety or depression. Dr. Ryce responded by suggesting proteolytic enzymes as a potential aid in breaking down scar tissue and offered to send her a link to some he personally uses. They also discussed how mental and emotional components contribute to physical conditions, with Susan acknowledging that Dr. Tim Hayes’ insights had helped her recognize the connection between her emotional patterns and her physical discomfort.

A significant portion of the show was dedicated to the concept of stress and its true source. Dr. Ryce emphasized that stress is not caused by external situations but rather by internalized goals. He explained that stress arises when a person’s goals bring unresolved emotional energy to the surface, and canceling the goal can collapse the perception that is triggering the distress. This leads to an opportunity for self-exploration and healing. He also pointed out that different people react differently to the same situation based on whether or not they hold a goal related to it, illustrating that stress is self-generated rather than situation-dependent.

Another key discussion revolved around early childhood emotional imprints and unconscious goals that drive behavior in adulthood. Dr. Ryce shared an example of a woman who struggled with lifelong promiscuity due to an unresolved childhood experience where she was rejected by an uncle she adored. When she finally uncovered this subconscious goal of wanting closeness, she was able to break the pattern and regain control over her life. This highlighted how early unresolved experiences create unconscious drives, which persist until they are brought to awareness and consciously processed.

The show also explored the importance of breathwork and energy processing in emotional healing. Dr. Ryce explained that just as water solidifies into ice when heat is removed, emotional trauma solidifies in the body when breath is restricted. By consciously breathing through pain and trauma, individuals can begin to dissolve these emotional blockages, similar to how heat melts ice. He emphasized that deep breathing and still-point processes are powerful tools for processing and releasing stored trauma, allowing for profound healing.

The episode concluded with a conversation with Celinda, who was working through early childhood trauma related to self-worth and feelings of guilt. She shared how rage had been triggered by a seemingly minor event—getting hit on the head by a washing machine lid—which immediately connected her to unresolved power-person dynamics from childhood. Through awareness and processing, she was able to gain deeper insight into her emotional reactions.

Overall, this episode of Mindshifters Radio provided deep insights into emotional processing, stress management, unconscious goals, and the power of breath in healing. Listeners were encouraged to explore their inner emotional landscape, use forgiveness techniques, and practice breathwork to dissolve past trauma and achieve greater peace.

Tim also explores the concept of perception as an active, rather than passive, process, referencing the research of Anil Seth and the idea that our brains construct reality rather than simply recording it. He expands on Dr. Michael Ryce’s teachings, which suggest that our interpretations of reality are often based on past experiences and conditioned responses rather than objective truth. This perspective ties into discussions on virtual reality and cognitive biases, highlighting how individuals can experience the same event differently due to their mental filters.

A significant portion of the show is dedicated to the topic of navigating conflicts and emotional triggers. Tim shares strategies for dealing with situations where others challenge our perceptions, emphasizing the futility of arguing when individuals are viewing reality through different cognitive lenses. He suggests responses like, “That’s not the way I see it,” to disengage from unnecessary conflicts while maintaining personal integrity. Additionally, he discusses the psychology of offense, illustrating how our reactions to situations are shaped by our own unresolved emotions rather than external events.

The discussion also touches on spiritual and psychological growth, referencing the book Of Course in Miracles by Alan Cohen. Tim reads the epilogue, which underscores the importance of shifting from fear-based thinking to a state of love and openness to miracles. He encourages listeners to recognize that true change begins with internal work and that perception determines experience. The conversation expands into themes of personal responsibility, mindfulness, and emotional resilience, offering practical insights for anyone looking to transform their perception and emotional well-being.

The show concludes with live listener interaction, where audience members discuss their personal experiences, challenges, and insights related to the topic. A notable conversation revolves around the cultural and religious implications of fasting during Ramadan, emphasizing the importance of self-care and balance between tradition and well-being. Tim reiterates that fear distorts perception and encourages listeners to cultivate a mindset that enables them to navigate life’s challenges with clarity and empowerment.

2nd hour hosted by dr. michael ryce explores the power of First Century Aramaic forgiveness and its role in transforming one’s perception of reality. He explains how our perceptions are not direct representations of the external world but rather internal projections shaped by our thoughts and past experiences. By understanding this, individuals can recognize how their minds create images based on conditioned beliefs, often leading to pain and suffering. Dr. Ryce emphasizes that pain is not caused by external factors but rather by unresolved internal energy patterns. Through the practice of forgiveness, as originally taught in Aramaic traditions, individuals can release these internal burdens and reclaim control over their emotional states.

A key aspect of the discussion involves the concept of denial, where people attribute their pain to external causes rather than recognizing it as an internal issue. Dr. Ryce describes how denial leads to the suppression of painful emotions, ultimately reinforcing negative cycles. He introduces the forgiveness process, which involves canceling self-imposed goals that trigger emotional distress. This process allows for the conscious release of past wounds and the dissolution of generational trauma, an issue deeply embedded in familial and societal structures. By actively engaging with these tools, individuals can achieve profound healing, breaking free from patterns that have governed their emotional responses for generations.

Another fundamental teaching Dr. Ryce shares is the role of breath in healing. He explains that the Aramaic term for Holy Spirit directly translates to “breath” and that breathwork is the key to removing stored trauma from one’s energy system. He illustrates how conscious breathing can clear emotional blockages, much like a reset for the body’s energy flow. Additionally, he delves into the neurological aspects of love and fear, introducing the Aramaic concepts of Rakhma and Khooba—neurological filters in the brain that determine whether we perceive reality through love or fear. Activating these filters through intentional breathing and mindfulness allows one to maintain a state of love, transforming how they interact with the world.

The conversation also touches on how power person dynamics—the subconscious patterns we inherit from significant figures in our lives—shape our behaviors. These patterns can influence our relationships, career choices, financial habits, and overall worldview. Through the codependence to interdependence model, Dr. Ryce and his guests explore how individuals can identify and dismantle these inherited patterns, allowing for true autonomy and emotional freedom.

The discussion is rich with personal anecdotes from listeners who share their transformative experiences using Dr. Ryce’s techniques. They discuss breakthroughs in their understanding of past traumas, recognizing how deep-seated beliefs influenced their lives and relationships. By applying these forgiveness tools, they report feeling liberated from emotional burdens they once thought were inescapable.

Dr. Hayes emphasizes that emotional distress is not caused by external events but rather by one’s own thoughts, and that through consistent use of the worksheet process, individuals can shift their perceptions and improve their emotional well-being. He explains how practicing the worksheets regularly can create a well-oiled system for emotional resilience, similar to how speakers improve in sound quality after being broken in. The show invites listener participation, encouraging questions and comments through email or the Needle radio app.

A key segment of the episode features a listener, Susan, who shares a deeply personal concern about her 19-year-old grandson, Charlie, who is struggling with severe OCD and anxiety. Charlie, suffering from intrusive thoughts and religious fears, has rejected traditional mental health approaches and instead relies solely on evangelical Christianity for support. Susan expresses a strong desire to help him but feels powerless, especially given his resistance to alternative solutions such as the Reality Management Worksheet.

Dr. Hayes gently redirects the focus from Charlie to Susan’s own emotional response, highlighting that the most effective way to assist a loved one is by addressing one’s own distress first. He suggests that Susan conduct a worksheet on her own fears and helplessness, demonstrating how unresolved personal pain can cloud one’s ability to support others. Susan initially resists, feeling that her work should be focused on Charlie directly, but eventually agrees to go through the worksheet process live on air.

During the worksheet exercise, Susan identifies fear as her dominant emotion and rates its intensity as an eight. She traces her distress to thoughts that Charlie is making himself sick and ruining his life. As she processes her emotions, she uncovers a deep-seated belief in her own failure as a parent, blaming herself for Charlie’s struggles. Through further introspection, Susan recalls childhood memories of her own mother crying in isolation, a moment that left her feeling helpless and confused as a six-year-old. This memory provides insight into how her current distress over Charlie is deeply rooted in her own unresolved childhood trauma.

As the worksheet progresses, Susan experiences a shift in perception. She recognizes that her attempts to control Charlie’s healing stem from her own past wounds, and she begins to release the belief that she must fix everything for him. By the end of the process, her emotional intensity drops from an eight to a four, indicating significant progress. Dr. Hayes advises her to continue with additional worksheets on the newly surfaced memories and beliefs, particularly the statement she associates with her mother: “How dare you enjoy life when I’m so miserable?” This revelation highlights a generational pattern of guilt and suppressed emotions, which Susan can now begin to heal.

The episode concludes with a powerful reminder from Dr. Hayes that personal healing is never an isolated event. When one person heals, the effects ripple outward, influencing family members and even future generations. He reassures Susan that addressing her own emotional distress will likely be far more beneficial to Charlie than any direct intervention. The show wraps up with gratitude for the opportunity to share this work and a call for listeners to engage with the tools, knowing that emotional transformation is possible for anyone willing to do the inner work.

The radio show “Mind Shifters Radio” with Dr. Michael Ryce delves into deep philosophical and psychological discussions about healing, consciousness, and personal growth. The episode opens with warm welcomes, including greetings to Jeanie and other listeners. The conversation quickly moves into exploring the connections between ancient Aramaic teachings, modern psychology, and the mind’s capacity to shape reality. One of the primary topics discussed is the importance of handwriting, particularly cursive, which is linked to right-brain subconscious processing. The guests lament the decline of cursive writing in schools, theorizing that it might be part of a broader cultural movement to suppress deeper cognitive connections.

The discussion transitions into a broader exploration of consciousness, perception, and interdependence. A caller, Celinda, raises points about the subconscious mind and how limiting access to it can keep people distracted from deeper truths. Dr. Ryce emphasizes the importance of being facilitators rather than authorities, fostering a space where both the teacher and student co-create understanding. He discusses how perception is often a distortion of reality, shaped by past experiences and biases. Referencing Max Planck, he elaborates on the quantum nature of existence, suggesting that what people perceive as material reality is actually a construct formed by mind energy. This aligns with the ancient Aramaic translation of “The Kingdom of Heaven” as “the expansion within us,” reinforcing the theme of shifting perception from codependence to interdependence.

The show takes an emotional turn as a caller named Cary discusses unresolved grief and sadness regarding her late father. Through a live demonstration of Dr. Ryce’s forgiveness work, she is guided to shift her perception from blame and regret to self-awareness and healing. The process involves identifying deep-seated sadness, generational trauma, and unconscious beliefs that influence present emotions and behaviors. They explore how sadness can be projected onto external situations, such as suffering animals, when it is actually rooted in past personal experiences. Dr. Ryce introduces key concepts from his book, “Why Is This Happening to Me Again?” to explain how unresolved emotions continue to repeat in life until they are consciously addressed and transformed.

The episode concludes with an exploration of intergenerational trauma, the impact of upbringing on emotional expression, and the power of forgiveness in breaking negative cycles. Cary experiences moments of insight, recognizing patterns of guilt, fear of punishment, and a deep-seated lack of trust developed in childhood. Through guided breathwork and introspection, she begins to dismantle these subconscious programs, making space for new, healthier emotional responses. Dr. Ryce emphasizes the power of conscious choice in shifting emotional states, reinforcing the idea that true healing requires bringing unconscious pain into conscious awareness. The show wraps up with encouragement for listeners to engage with the forgiveness tools available through the Heartland Aramaic Forgiveness app, underlining the transformative potential of this work.

A key part of the episode involved Dr. Hayes sharing a personal worksheet process that he had completed after experiencing emotional distress from an email exchange with a longtime friend. He detailed how his initial reaction—feeling a “punch in the gut”—stemmed not from the email itself but from his own internal patterns of self-doubt and insecurity. By working through the Reality Management Worksheet, he identified a recurring pattern in his life: surrounding himself with highly intelligent friends and subconsciously feeling inferior. Through canceling his internal goals and shifting his perspective, he was able to move from emotional distress to a place of self-acceptance and peace.

Dr. Hayes also discussed EFT tapping (Emotional Freedom Technique) as a complementary method for emotional regulation. In a conversation with Susan Bingham, he explained different ways to apply tapping techniques to address physical and emotional discomfort, including shortcuts for nighttime use. Susan reflected on the idea of self-nurturing, recognizing how touch—whether from others or oneself—plays a role in emotional well-being. This led to a deeper conversation about receiving and giving support, highlighting how many people struggle with allowing themselves to be cared for.

Throughout the show, Dr. Hayes emphasized that perception is shaped by internal conditioning, referencing concepts from A Course in Miracles and The Way of Mastery. He reminded listeners that every experience is an opportunity for healing, reinforcing the idea that suffering comes not from external events but from how the mind interprets them. By practicing forgiveness, breathwork, and self-awareness, individuals can rewire their emotional responses and reclaim their inner peace.

The episode concluded with Dr. Hayes encouraging listeners to continue exploring self-inquiry and emotional processing, reminding them that they are not their past patterns but rather beings of love and growth.

2nd hour hosted by Dr. Michael Ryce centered around self-awareness, perception, and emotional healing. Dr. Ryce opened the discussion by acknowledging Saint Patrick’s Day and sending support and love to those affected by recent storms in the United States. He emphasized the importance of functioning as a true human being, which, according to him, means aligning one’s thoughts and actions with love and truth rather than culturally ingrained misperceptions.

A significant part of the discussion revolved around the power of perception. Dr. Ryce explored how the human mind constructs reality based on limited information. Using a clown-in-the-clouds metaphor, he explained that what we see is often shaped by our prior conditioning rather than objective truth. He referenced neuroscientific research to illustrate that our perceptions are projections of past experiences, beliefs, and traumas. This idea ties into his broader teaching that pain, hostility, and fear-based emotions are not caused by external events but rather by unresolved internal patterns.

Dr. Ryce introduced his work on “The Law of the Power Person”, describing how childhood conditioning creates unconscious decision-making systems. These systems dictate how people respond under stress, often leading to blame, projection, and codependent behaviors. He stressed that forgiveness is not about pardoning others but about removing internal distortions and false beliefs that perpetuate suffering. He highlighted the generational transmission of trauma, citing the biblical passage about the sins of the fathers being passed down through generations. His interpretation suggested that these “sins” refer to erroneous thought patterns inherited from previous generations, which must be consciously undone.

The conversation also touched on mind-body connections, stating that unresolved emotional pain manifests as physical symptoms. Dr. Ryce encouraged listeners to practice Aramaic forgiveness techniques, emphasizing that canceling unconscious goals and embracing love is the path to true healing. He explained that self-judgment, regret, and guilt are just as destructive as external blame, reinforcing the need for self-compassion and breathwork as tools for releasing stored trauma.

A caller, Cary K., engaged in a dialogue about processing emotions like disgust, regret, and guilt. Dr. Ryce guided her through worksheet techniques for identifying the root of these emotions and understanding their role in self-preservation. He suggested that self-punishment is often a learned survival mechanism and must be consciously addressed to break the cycle of suffering.

The episode concluded with a reminder that awareness and breath are keys to transformation. Dr. Ryce encouraged listeners to download the Heartland Aramaic Forgiveness app, where they could find further guidance. He reinforced the idea that healing requires breaking free from generational conditioning and actively choosing love over fear.

Throughout the episode, Dr. Hayes discussed the critical elements of successful therapy, explaining that a good therapist must be both skilled and someone the client feels comfortable with. He highlighted that no amount of education, training, or techniques will be effective if there is no trust or connection between the therapist and client. In his ongoing efforts to guide people in their healing journeys, he also shared a curated list of valuable resources, including books, interviews, and psychological techniques such as Internal Family Systems (IFS), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT tapping). These methods, he explained, are highly effective in uncovering and transforming deep-seated emotional patterns.

A major segment of the episode was dedicated to live interaction with a caller named Celinda, who was working through a powerful realization using the Reality Management Worksheet. Celinda identified rage as a dominant emotion and connected it to an internal belief that she and everyone else must be perfect for her to feel safe and in control. Dr. Hayes guided her through an exploration of this belief, challenging her to understand how this thought pattern fuels her emotions and influences her reactions. Unfortunately, technical difficulties disrupted the conversation, but Dr. Hayes used the situation as a teaching moment, reiterating that our emotions are not caused by external events but by our internal narratives and expectations.

In a broader discussion on transforming negative emotions, Dr. Hayes examined different self-inquiry methods, including Byron Katie’s “The Work”, which involves questioning deeply held beliefs and flipping them around to gain new perspectives. He also referenced the Course in Miracles, which teaches that people are “never upset for the reason they think they are.” He explained that most upsets stem from unhealed past experiences rather than the present moment. By holding onto the questioning process—rather than immediately trying to find fixed answers—people can access deeper layers of awareness and allow real healing to unfold.

The episode concluded with Dr. Hayes reinforcing the importance of canceling outdated, subconscious goals that no longer serve personal growth. He used his own experience as an example, revealing that an unresolved desire for validation from a college friend had unknowingly shaped his emotional reactions for decades. This realization, he explained, came through the Reality Management Worksheet, which helped him collapse old perceptual patterns and shift into a new understanding.

2nd hour hosted by Dr. Michael Ryce, explores the profound relationship between perception, forgiveness, and self-transformation. Dr. Ryce begins by reflecting on a news story about excessive alcohol consumption during St. Patrick’s Day celebrations, using it as an entry point into a deeper discussion on the impact of unconscious patterns, generational trauma, and the true nature of healing. He contrasts the perspectives of clinical psychology and naturopathy, emphasizing his focus on the 1st-century Aramaic understanding of the mind, healing, and forgiveness.

A central theme of the episode is how perception is shaped by multi-generational experiences stored in the mind, which often distorts reality. Dr. Ryce highlights that the teachings of Yeshua (Jesus) were not about religious doctrine, but rather about physics, physiology, and psychology—offering tools for true healing. He explains that forgiveness, as understood in Aramaic, is not about pardoning others but about actively canceling internal misperceptions that fuel suffering. According to Dr. Ryce, most people are trapped in a world of projection, unknowingly blaming others for their internal conflicts instead of addressing the unresolved pain within.

A significant portion of the show is dedicated to analyzing a listener’s dream. The dream involves an internal struggle between the conscious and unconscious self, symbolized by an attacker and a victim, culminating in the dreamer being thrown off a roof but discovering they can fly. Dr. Ryce interprets this as a metaphor for self-sabotage and an invitation to transcend limiting beliefs. He suggests that denial, self-hatred, and subconscious resistance can manifest in dreams, urging the listener to apply forgiveness worksheets to uncover and clear these destructive patterns.

The episode also touches on the limitations of perception and how language shapes reality. Dr. Ryce encourages listeners to examine their speech patterns, arguing that phrases like “I don’t hate” indicate underlying unresolved emotions. He introduces the concept of Cymatics—the study of how sound affects physical structure—suggesting that spoken words literally shape one’s physiological and psychological state. He also references Carl Jung’s idea that “those who look outside dream, those who look inside awaken”, reinforcing the necessity of inner work to break free from unconscious conditioning.

Dr. Ryce concludes by emphasizing the importance of practicing forgiveness rather than simply studying spiritual texts. He critiques the common misinterpretation of A Course in Miracles, explaining that it is not meant to be studied intellectually but applied practically as a guide for releasing internal distortions. He reiterates that canceling goals tied to painful emotions collapses the illusion of perception, allowing deeper healing to take place.

A central theme of the discussion was the power of language in shaping perception and the misunderstandings that arise when people are not aligned in their definitions of words. Hayes explained that many conflicts stem from differing interpretations of language rather than fundamental disagreements. He explored words such as faith, hope, and fear, illustrating how their deeper meanings can influence emotional and psychological well-being. Referencing ancient Aramaic teachings, he described faith as acting from the core of one’s being rather than blind belief. He also critiqued hope as a rejection of the present moment, urging listeners to focus on gratitude and learning from current experiences.

The conversation then shifted to personal responsibility and how individuals create their own emotional experiences. Hayes used the example of a person wrongfully imprisoned who chose to transform suffering into positive change, demonstrating that circumstances do not dictate emotional responses—rather, mindset and perspective do. He reinforced the principle of 100% responsibility, explaining that emotional suffering often results from unexamined beliefs and reactions rather than external events.

In the latter part of the show, Hayes introduced A Walk in the Physical by Christian Sundberg, a book exploring pre-birth experiences, the veil of forgetting, and the spiritual journey of human incarnation. He read excerpts that described how consciousness exists beyond the physical realm and how choosing to incarnate allows beings to experience growth through contrast, challenges, and physical constraints. The discussion touched on near-death experiences, referencing authors like Eben Alexander and Anita Moorjani, who documented their encounters with consciousness beyond the physical body. Hayes emphasized the importance of living in an open state of questioning rather than rigid belief, allowing for deeper self-discovery and spiritual expansion.

Listeners were invited to reflect on their own spiritual journey and consider how their perceptions shape their reality. Hayes closed the show by reminding the audience that human beings are expressions of love and that recognizing this truth can lead to a more fulfilled and intentional life.

2nd hour hosted by dr michael ryce centered around the transformative process of forgiveness, self-awareness, and healing through the Aramaic understanding of emotions and perception. The episode, originating from Kansas City, Missouri, started with Ryce sharing personal reflections about visiting his family and then transitioned into a deeper discussion on relationships and emotional resolution. A question from a long-time listener led into an exploration of how conditioned beliefs from childhood influence relationships, often without conscious recognition.

A significant portion of the discussion focused on the misinterpretation of forgiveness in modern culture. Ryce emphasized how society has been conditioned to externalize emotions by asking, “How did that make you feel?”—a question that promotes denial and shifts responsibility away from personal accountability. Instead, he advocates for asking, “What did that bring up in me?” to foster internal awareness and healing. He explained that perception is shaped by generational patterns and early programming, leading people to blame external events for their emotions rather than recognizing that unresolved internal traumas are being triggered.

Ryce also introduced Quantum Stillpoint, a method that builds upon his breathwork techniques, aiming to restore the natural flow of energy in the body by releasing deeply embedded emotional resistance. He explained how physiological resistance locks energy patterns within the body, distorting perception and preventing healing. Using the analogy of an antenna, he illustrated how unresolved trauma disrupts a person’s ability to fully receive and process love and truth. By unlocking these “stuck” points through breathwork and intentional processing, individuals can dissolve emotional blockages, preventing them from reliving past pain in an unconscious loop.

The discussion also covered the importance of Rukha d’Koodsha, the Aramaic term often translated as the Holy Spirit, which Ryce describes as the breath that undoes the effects of errors and delivers truth. He linked this concept to proper breathing during forgiveness practices, emphasizing that without breath, healing cannot take place. The episode concluded with a conversation about Rakhma, an Aramaic term referring to a heart-centered filter that allows love to enter the human experience. Ryce explained that when a person operates in hostility or fear, this gateway is shut, cutting them off from their true nature of love and light.

Dr. Hayes describes how the worksheet process is available as a downloadable PDF and through the Heartland Aramaic Forgiveness app, which also includes an abbreviated version and an interactive game for younger users. He emphasizes the impact of these tools, which he has personally used for over 20 years, and invites listeners to share their questions, insights, and experiences. The discussion also touches on the accessibility of the MindShifters Radio platform via AI-driven apps, making it easier for people worldwide to engage with the show.

In this episode, Dr. Hayes continues reading from A Walk in the Physical by Christian Sundberg, which explores the concept of pre-incarnation planning and the process of taking on a physical body. The book details the spiritual perspective of moving from a non-physical state into the constraints of human experience, describing this transition as a powerful opportunity for personal and collective expansion. Sundberg recounts his own past-life experiences, including confronting deep-seated fears and past traumas, and his decision to reincarnate to work through unresolved emotional patterns.

The discussion delves into the concept of “the veil,” which Sundberg describes as the necessary forgetting that occurs during the incarnation process. He explains how taking on a human form involves temporarily losing the expansive awareness of one’s true nature. He also shares his struggle with this transition, describing an initial rejection of the process that resulted in a miscarriage before he successfully accepted the human experience. The book suggests that physical existence is a profound opportunity for growth, despite the challenges and suffering involved.

Dr. Hayes reflects on how this perspective aligns with his own beliefs about life being a privilege, emphasizing that engaging in deep self-exploration and healing work is one of the most valuable pursuits in human experience. He discusses how different listeners may react to these concepts, acknowledging that some may resist or reject the idea of choosing life’s challenges for spiritual growth. He also connects this theme to broader religious and philosophical perspectives, questioning traditional interpretations of suffering and divine purpose.

A listener, Susan Bingham, calls in to express her fascination with the reading, noting how the content feels fresh and different upon each exposure. She shares thoughts on language and communication, drawing parallels between Sundberg’s experiences and the challenges of communicating with refugees who lack a common spoken language. Dr. Hayes elaborates on how consciousness constraints shape human experience, explaining that the physical realm imposes necessary limitations on infinite awareness to facilitate learning and transformation.

The conversation also explores the idea that physical suffering and discomfort—such as the oral surgery Dr. Hayes recently underwent—may be viewed differently from a spiritual perspective. Drawing from Andrea Gibson’s poetry, he ponders whether the soul might miss the physical aches and pains once separated from the body, just as one misses the taste of a favorite food after finishing it. He suggests that life’s difficulties may hold meaning beyond immediate perception, contributing to a deeper sense of purpose and connection.

As the hour concludes, Dr. Hayes acknowledges the physical strain from his recent procedure and plans to continue the book discussion in the next episode. He signs off with the show’s core affirmation: “We come from love, we are made of love, and everything else is false,” reinforcing the foundational belief in love as the essence of human existence.

2nd hour hosted by Dr. Michael Ryce a thought-provoking discussion exploring personal healing, self-awareness, and emotional transformation. The episode opens with an invitation for listeners to engage by calling in or using the app to submit questions, emphasizing the accessibility of the platform. Jeanie is acknowledged for her contributions to the Heartland Aramaic Mission Forgiveness app, which allows users to work through emotional challenges in real-time.

The discussion delves into the impact of “Power Person messages,” which are deeply ingrained beliefs instilled in childhood that shape one’s perceptions and behaviors throughout life. A listener’s question about a statement from her father—”You’ll never know a man who loves you as much as your father does”—serves as the focal point. Dr. Ryce explains how such messages unconsciously govern decisions and relationships, often creating limiting patterns. He provides insight into how unresolved childhood beliefs influence behavior, citing an example of a person reacting automatically to perceived rejection. This leads to a broader discussion of how individuals carry generational patterns of self-worth, love, and attachment.

Dr. Ryce introduces forgiveness as a practical tool for dismantling these unconscious messages. He explains that true forgiveness is not about letting someone else off the hook but about removing internalized pain and false perceptions. He illustrates this with the example of alcoholism, where someone repeatedly vows to change but fails due to the unresolved unconscious dynamics driving their behavior. He suggests that by consistently working with forgiveness worksheets and recognizing ingrained beliefs, individuals can free themselves from self-sabotaging cycles.

The episode also examines the misinterpretation of the Aramaic teachings of Yeshua, particularly regarding the concept of love. Dr. Ryce argues that love is not an action but rather the essence of human existence. He critiques the Greek distortion of biblical teachings, explaining that commands such as “love your neighbor” were originally about maintaining an inner state of love (Rachma) rather than a forced external behavior. This distinction, he asserts, is crucial for genuine healing and transformation.

A significant portion of the conversation focuses on the listener’s relationship experiences. Having gone through multiple long-term relationships and marriages, she expresses a desire for a deep, conscious partnership. Dr. Ryce encourages her to examine unconscious beliefs still influencing her relationship patterns, especially noting her use of regulatory speech. He explains that phrases like “there is no blame, shame, resentment, or sad residue” actually indicate the presence of those very emotions beneath the surface. By paying attention to language, one can uncover hidden emotional wounds and begin the healing process.

To facilitate this work, Dr. Ryce suggests a “mind shifter” exercise, in which the listener repeatedly writes and reflects on a statement that challenges limiting beliefs. He emphasizes that deep healing often requires repeated engagement with the forgiveness process, particularly when dealing with long-standing generational patterns. He also introduces the idea of using a worksheet as if she were her father, allowing her to explore his potential motivations and emotional state when imparting his message to her.

The episode concludes with encouragement for the listener to actively work on healing so she can attract a truly fulfilling relationship. Dr. Ryce shares his personal experience meeting Jeanie through eHarmony, highlighting how their connection was built on shared values and conscious intention. He recommends the platform as a tool for serious relationship seekers and expresses his hope that the listener finds a partner who cherishes and supports her in the way she desires. The conversation ends with a heartfelt message of support and the reminder that healing opens the path to an abundant and love-filled life.

The central theme of this episode was a continuation of the reading from A Walk in the Physical by Christian Sundberg. Dr. Hayes read aloud and reflected on Sundberg’s account of his pre-birth and early life experiences, highlighting the author’s memories of choosing to incarnate into the physical realm despite fear. Sundberg’s spiritual insights offered listeners a broader context of human life as a temporary, yet profoundly valuable, soul journey. He described the sensory overwhelm of birth, a knowing that Earth wasn’t his true home, and an intuitive understanding that all humans were merely visitors here. As Sundberg grew older, his memories of the pre-birth realm faded, and he began to experience deep suffering through undiagnosed celiac disease, chronic illness, and trauma—each of which later became catalysts for spiritual growth.

Dr. Hayes emphasized Sundberg’s use of tools like EMDR, meditation, and emotional processing to face his inner pain and fear, reclaiming his awareness of the eternal self beyond the human condition. These intense healing journeys helped Sundberg access and validate non-physical experiences, including out-of-body connections and soul-level recognition of others. He shared profound moments such as meeting a friend’s soul during sleep and recognizing shared spiritual essence, all reinforcing the idea that our awareness extends far beyond physical form.

As Dr. Hayes continued, he reflected on Sundberg’s writing about the power of love as the foundation of all existence. Sundberg’s core message is that we are not our human story—we are love expressing through form, and our fears are illusions masking the truth of who we are. Dr. Hayes connected this to the spiritual teachings of Ryce, who frequently reminds listeners that anger and frustration are not valid in themselves but serve as indicators of misaligned thinking. The radio host wove together ideas from various teachers, including Tom Campbell and Guy Finley, encouraging listeners to meditate, apply healing tools like EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), and tap into the “wisdom that can only be accessed,” not possessed.

Throughout the show, Dr. Hayes underscored the importance of consistent self-awareness practices and the application of spiritual tools to navigate life’s challenges. He shared his personal experience with healing after oral surgery, demonstrating how applying conscious breathing and EFT tapping drastically reduced his physical discomfort and emotional stress. This mirrored Sundberg’s point that life’s hardships are not punishments but part of a sacred opportunity to grow and evolve as consciousness.

In closing, Dr. Hayes reminded the audience that our truest nature is love, not the roles we play or the stories we tell. He echoed the collective call to awaken from fear and to recognize life as a sacred gift. He encouraged everyone to embrace their human journey as part of a much grander spiritual experience—one meant to be used for transformation, love, and remembrance of our divine origin.

2nd hour hosted by Dr. Michael Ryce welcomed listeners and engaged in a deep conversation with a caller named Tiffany, who sought guidance on working through emotional blocks using his forgiveness tools. The episode opened with lighthearted greetings, updates from Ryce—who was in Kansas City enjoying time with his grandchildren—and a reminder about the community’s ongoing invitation to the New Year’s Eve event at Heartland.

Tiffany, identifying herself as Kira and Merrick’s daughter, shared that she had recently quit her job to rebuild her business intentionally and has felt emotionally and energetically blocked. She explained that the worksheets she normally uses to process emotional challenges have not been effective lately, and she is feeling stuck, particularly around unresolved feelings related to her cousin—a successful former student of hers. As she described her process, she named emotions like jealousy, insecurity, and unworthiness, noting that while she has done significant self-work, she still felt “activated” and couldn’t finish her worksheets with clarity or emotional release.

Dr. Ryce guided her through examining the root of her frustration. He proposed that frustration itself may be the deeper theme, not just with her cousin, but in multiple aspects of her life. They explored how emotional patterns tied to early life experiences—especially the tendency to hide aspects of oneself—contribute to present-day emotional blocks. Ryce emphasized the power of the forgiveness tool to peel back layers of generational trauma and conditioned beliefs, explaining that the process can trigger temporary confusion or intensified emotional discomfort as deeper patterns surface.

As their dialogue deepened, Tiffany acknowledged the fragmented ways she presents herself depending on the context—being the “intellectual” in some situations and the “funny one” in others—leading to a lack of integration. She expressed frustration at not being fully seen and admitted to hiding parts of herself out of fear or habit. Ryce encouraged her to see these different roles as personas—masks that must be weakened and forgiven so that her integrated, authentic self can emerge. He explained how frustration often surfaces when attempting to reconcile these masks, and how releasing those constructs paves the way for deeper presence, clarity, and personal empowerment.

Toward the end of the session, Tiffany shared her belief that her purpose on this planet ties directly into doing this kind of inner and collective healing work. Ryce affirmed her path, noting that she is an “early adopter” within her family lineage—someone doing deep personal work without a model before her. He reminded her that the real process of forgiveness isn’t intellectual; it’s experiential, involving collapsing false perceptions and returning to love as a living presence.

The episode concluded with encouragement and mutual recognition of how both personal and collective transformation is unfolding, especially for those willing to face and transmute the emotional residue passed down through generations.
