The radio show discussed various personal and community issues, focusing on health, family dynamics, and support systems during challenging times. Jeanie shared her experience dealing with a sinus infection and the concern of not spreading it to her family. She recounted that her husband, Michael, had been dealing with sinus issues before traveling, and her son is scheduled for a medical consultation on October 21st.
A significant part of the show highlighted the community’s response to recent flooding and devastation in the surrounding areas. Jeanie and Michael praised how people were coming together to provide aid, such as furniture companies offering their goods to flood victims. They also talked about mountaineers delivering supplies to inaccessible areas and how communities were uniting without any consideration of political or religious differences. The strength of humanity in tough times was emphasized. Another key theme was the exploration of deeper emotional and spiritual healing, as Michael offered insights into trauma, pain, and forgiveness. He explained how unresolved emotional trauma could manifest in harmful behaviors or even physical ailments. The dialogue covered the concept of energy dynamics, particularly how negativity can create a feedback loop of distress. Michael shared personal stories, including a time when he helped a woman in a severe emotional and physical crisis through intuitive intervention. This experience opened a discussion on the nature of possession, trauma, and the power of forgiveness to heal deeply embedded pain. The final portion of the show introduced a caller who shared her own emotional challenges, including shame and guilt from childhood experiences. Michael provided her with guidance on working through these deep-seated emotions and the connection between unresolved psychological issues and physical ailments like osteoporosis. The caller reflected on her life and relationships, expressing a desire to continue healing both emotionally and physically, with the support of the radio show’s community. |

The radio show begins with Michael Ryce apologizing for the show’s recent absence due to travel and technical difficulties. He shares a touching story about his granddaughter Arya’s insightful comment regarding her grandmother’s emotional distress (“she just forgot who she was”), reflecting the show’s emphasis on love as a fundamental aspect of humanity. The discussion centers around the idea that love is not something one does but is the very essence of being. Ryce explains that society often misguides people into thinking that love is transactional, urging listeners to reclaim their true nature, which is inherently love. He also references the Gospel of Thomas, discussing how the teachings of Yeshua focus on connecting with the innocence of infants to understand life better.
As Ryce speaks of his new grandchild, he draws attention to the purity of a newborn’s presence, comparing it to the state of love that humans should aspire to embody. The show touches on the difference between superficial love and the deep, unconditional essence of love. Ryce challenges the common misconception that love is about approval and pleasing others, pointing out that many relationships are based on matching psychological issues or “bags of garbage,” rather than genuine love. He explains that when someone violates a goal or expectation, what is often considered love quickly turns into hostility or disapproval, revealing the fragile nature of such relationships. Ryce delves into the concept of “Rakhma,” an Aramaic term that Yeshua used, which he says is mistranslated as love. In actuality, Rakhma refers to a conscious state of active love, which helps people maintain their human essence. He stresses that Yeshua’s teachings are often misunderstood and that the essence of his message was about cultivating this state of Rakhma, not the distorted version of love propagated by society. The episode discusses how unresolved pain from childhood or power-person relationships leads people to project unresolved emotional dynamics onto others, thereby damaging relationships. The show also includes a question from a listener about guilt and anxiety. Ryce explains that emotions like guilt are rooted in thought disorders or inherited mental patterns from power figures in childhood. He compares emotions to shadows, which cannot be changed directly, but are reflections of deeper internal issues. He encourages the use of forgiveness worksheets to collapse these mental images and uncover the unconscious thought patterns that fuel negative emotions. Forgiveness, as he defines it, is not about pardoning others but about releasing the inner dynamics that cause emotional suffering. Ryce promotes his forgiveness app and resources on his website, emphasizing the importance of consistently applying these tools to heal. The episode closes with an invitation to listeners to explore these concepts further by utilizing the app, joining the show for live worksheets, or listening to archived episodes.

1st hour Dr Tim replay “Dr Tim Michele and Rachel”
Ryce highlights that Yeshua’s teachings were not about fear or external rewards, but about inner transformation. He explains that love, in its true essence, is not something that can be given or taken, but is the fundamental energy of life. He also stresses that forgiveness, as taught by Yeshua, is not about pardoning others but about removing the internal, generational pain and patterns that block us from experiencing love. Ryce criticizes the widespread cultural and religious emphasis on punishment, noting that love should be the source from which all actions are derived. He goes on to discuss the nature of hostility, fear, and projection, urging listeners to recognize these as mental illnesses—distortions of the mind that block true understanding and love. Ryce insists that only by going inward and confronting unresolved emotional patterns can we heal, as external circumstances or blaming others for our pain will never lead to real peace. He calls for consistent self-reflection and the use of forgiveness tools to collapse harmful thought patterns. Later in the show, Ryce uses the metaphor of a vine planted apart from the Father to illustrate how knowledge or achievements rooted in anything other than love will eventually be destroyed. The show ends with a meditative breathing exercise, encouraging listeners to connect with their inner light and extend love and peace outward to others, reinforcing the idea that everyone has the potential to be “the light of the world.” Covered Gospel of Thomas – Statements 36 through 45 |

In this radio show, Michael Ryce and Jeanie resume their routine after a month of family time, during which they spent moments with their grandchildren. Ryce shared how he was able to spend time with his newborn grandson, Lincoln, and reflected on the innocence of children and the profound lessons they offer in understanding life. One particular story focused on their granddaughter Arya’s wise observation of her other grandmother’s emotional moment, showing a child’s clear insight into the deeper realities of human experience (“She just forgot who she was.”). Ryce used this example to emphasize that true human beings should strive to function from a place of love and presence, something that is often forgotten or obscured by emotional reactions.
The show delves into the teachings of Yeshua, particularly those found in the Gospel of Thomas, which Ryce uses to explore concepts of perception, forgiveness, and spiritual awakening. He emphasizes that John the Baptist represents the highest form of intellect and perception in human consciousness, but even John is surpassed by the innocence and pure presence of a newborn child. Ryce explains that John the Baptist, despite his great spiritual insight, was still confined by perception—the nine-bit mind that filters reality through limited, conditioned thoughts. Yeshua’s teachings, as Ryce interprets them, invite listeners to “break their eyes,” meaning to transcend the limitations of perception and intellect in order to experience the direct, unfiltered reality of the Creator’s love. Ryce further discusses the nature of mental illness, stating that any form of hostility, fear, or emotional reaction that disconnects a person from love is a sign of mental imbalance. He emphasizes the importance of forgiveness—not as pardoning others, but as a tool to collapse the false constructs of the mind that create suffering and misperception. The process of forgiveness, according to Ryce, helps individuals move beyond blame, projection, and denial, and allows them to reconnect with their true essence, which is love. He encourages listeners to take responsibility for their emotional reactions, viewing them as opportunities for healing rather than external causes of pain. Towards the end, Ryce touches on how unresolved generational trauma plays a significant role in shaping perception and emotional responses. He warns of the dangers of falling into the collective delusions and psychic epidemics that plague society, as Carl Jung once described. Ryce insists that true healing requires individuals to face their inner traumas and illusions, and by doing so, they not only heal themselves but contribute to the healing of the world.

In this radio show, Michael Ryce reflects on the importance of understanding the original teachings of Yeshua, whose words have often been misunderstood or misinterpreted through centuries of translation. Ryce explains that many key refinements of Yeshua’s teachings, particularly in the Aramaic language, were reversed or distorted by Greek and Roman influences. These cultural shifts altered the essence of Yeshua’s message, which was intended to awaken listeners to deeper spiritual truths. One of the central points discussed is that the mind must evolve to comprehend the real meaning behind Yeshua’s words, as they were designed to help people access a higher state of consciousness, beyond intellectual or emotional limitations.
Ryce continues to emphasize the importance of forgiveness, clarifying that it has nothing to do with letting others off the hook for wrongdoing. Instead, forgiveness is about removing internal emotional blockages caused by unresolved hostility and fear, which distort a person’s perception. This emotional and mental cleansing allows individuals to reconnect with love, the true essence of life. He also explores the challenges of breaking free from the mind’s habitual patterns, referred to as “carbon-based memory.” This type of memory holds onto generational trauma and false perceptions, causing individuals to replay the same negative experiences. The episode delves into the Gospel of Thomas, where Ryce breaks down sayings of Yeshua that encourage listeners to shift their perspective from intellectual understanding to a more profound spiritual awareness. He uses metaphors such as “breaking the eyes” to symbolize moving beyond the limitations of perception. Ryce explains that this shift allows one to see the world not through distorted memories and projections but through a lens of love and truth. He also speaks about the inability to serve two masters, indicating that one cannot live in love while also harboring fear or hostility. The transformation, he explains, requires a complete release of old thought patterns and emotional baggage. Toward the end, Ryce touches on how relationships often serve as mirrors for unresolved personal issues. When someone triggers negative emotions in us, it is not because of their actions but because they resonate with unhealed parts of ourselves. The key to healing, Ryce explains, is to apply forgiveness in these moments, which leads to the removal of the internal issues causing pain. The show concludes with Ryce encouraging listeners to actively use forgiveness tools to heal not only themselves but also their relationships and, ultimately, their lives.

In this episode, Michael Ryce discusses the profound spiritual teachings of Yeshua, focusing particularly on the Gospel of Thomas. He emphasizes that many of Yeshua’s core teachings have been misunderstood or mistranslated, especially by Greek and Roman influences, which distorted their original meanings. Ryce points out that the Aramaic words of Yeshua were about the internal work required to access love as a life force, not external morality or judgment. He explains that Yeshua’s message focused on removing internal barriers, such as fear and hostility, which block the flow of love through the body, and Ryce relates this to the idea of life being love flowing through each cell.
One of the main themes in the show is the contrast between two minds—the mind of man, filled with fear, hostility, and past traumas, and the mind of Christ, which represents pure love and presence. Ryce explains that internal conflict, caused by these two opposing forces within each person, is what divides them from living in harmony. The only way to resolve this conflict is through forgiveness, not as it is typically understood, but as a process of removing the internal obstacles that prevent love from flowing freely. Ryce repeatedly states that forgiveness is not about pardoning others, but about collapsing the negative perceptions stored in the mind that perpetuate pain and suffering. The conversation also delves into the significance of Yeshua’s teaching about a “house divided,” stressing that individuals must unify their inner being, making peace between the conflicting parts of themselves. Ryce likens this to bringing serenity between two opposing forces within one’s own body and mind. By doing so, a person’s true creative power is restored, allowing them to live fully as love. He explains that each person must take the time in solitude to do this work, reflecting inwardly to resolve the generational trauma and emotional baggage that cloud their experience of love and joy. Ryce wraps up by encouraging listeners to continue using the tools of forgiveness to heal themselves, emphasizing that this process is not quick but necessary for true liberation. He urges the audience to disconnect from societal teachings of blame, judgment, and fear, which keep people trapped in suffering, and to instead focus on internal healing, which will not only transform their lives but also the lives of those around them.

The radio show episode discusses in detail the ancient Aramaic teachings of Yeshua (Jesus) and the psychological, emotional, and spiritual insights that are often missed in traditional translations of his words. Michael Ryce focuses on the deeper meanings found in the Gospel of Thomas and the Khabouris Manuscript, specifically highlighting how stress is created by setting unattainable goals and how forgiveness plays a central role in alleviating it. He contrasts traditional Greek translations with the Aramaic understanding of terms like “evil” and “sin,” explaining that these words carry different, less ominous connotations in Aramaic, relating instead to imperfection and incompleteness. The episode also delves into the importance of maintaining “Rakhma,” a state of love and compassion, especially in the context of interpersonal relationships, and offers practical guidance on resolving generational trauma, particularly with one’s “power person,” often a parent.
The host underscores how many stress management workshops fail to teach how stress is created, while Yeshua’s teachings provide a clear solution: live in the present, focus on achievable goals, and forgive oneself and others. Ryce shares personal experiences of healing through these Aramaic principles, particularly in his relationship with his own father, and the profound impact it had on resolving deep-seated emotional trauma. In a poignant moment, Ryce reflects on how the energy dynamics between parents and children influence future behavior. He explains that the only way to break the cycle of inherited trauma is through forgiveness and honoring one’s parents, even when they have been abusive, as it leads to personal healing rather than being about excusing their behavior. He encourages listeners to adopt a mindset of healing and self-awareness, using Yeshua’s teachings as a transformative tool to process past traumas and to live as love.

In this radio show, Michael Ryce continues exploring spiritual teachings, focusing on Yeshua’s message from the Gospel of Thomas. Ryce emphasizes the transformative power of forgiveness, especially when understood in its original Aramaic meaning. He explains that forgiveness is not about letting others off the hook, but rather a process of removing the internal blocks caused by unresolved emotions, traumas, and generational patterns. This internal work allows individuals to reconnect with their true essence—love—which flows naturally through each person when unimpeded. Ryce also discusses the difference between living through the mind of Christ and the mind rooted in fear and hostility. He asserts that much of human suffering stems from inherited thought patterns and unhealed wounds, which people unknowingly carry and project into the world. Yeshua’s teachings, according to Ryce, were intended to guide people back to their true selves by breaking free from these limitations. This involves shifting from a focus on the external world to an inner journey of healing and peace, a process that requires solitude and self-reflection. The discussion touches on the idea that everyone is inherently a child of light, with the capacity for eternal life. Ryce explains that many people miss this truth because they remain spiritually asleep, unaware of their own divinity. He encourages listeners to use tools like breathwork, meditation, and forgiveness to clear the mental and emotional obstacles that prevent them from experiencing love and joy fully. By doing so, individuals can live more authentically and create positive resonance with others, breaking the cycle of fear and hostility. The episode concludes with a reminder that true healing is a gradual process, one that requires ongoing effort and dedication. Ryce stresses that by doing the inner work of forgiveness, people can transform not only their own lives but also the lives of those around them, contributing to a more loving and harmonious world.

October 21, 2024, episode of this radio show delved deeply into themes of addiction, generational trauma, and personal transformation. It began with Susan’s story about her grandson Luke, who, though sober from alcohol, has become entwined in a tumultuous relationship with a woman he met in AA. She exhibits controlling and abusive behavior, mirroring his father’s past actions, and is caught in her own struggles with bulimia. Luke’s attachment to her, despite repeated breakups and painful interactions, underscores his unresolved self-worth issues and generational trauma. The hosts discussed strategies for Luke, emphasizing “wake-up sheets” as a tool to help him confront and dissolve self-destructive thoughts, moving toward self-acceptance. Despite some progress, Luke continues to struggle, showing how deep-seated family patterns shape his choices.
As the conversation progressed, the hosts highlighted the pervasive role of “carbon-based memory,” a metaphor for generational trauma and learned responses stored in our subconscious. This concept is central to the show’s philosophy, advocating that healing requires us to transcend past conditioning to experience a “mind of love” rather than one burdened by pain. Luke’s repeated relapses into self-punishment were seen as part of a larger “healing crisis,” a necessary process of surfacing and addressing buried pain. They further suggested alternative support systems for Luke, such as moving from Alcoholics Anonymous to Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous, where he could distance himself from triggering environments and build resilience. The show’s discussion also covered larger societal topics, touching on the impact of societal “conditioning” and political instability on individual well-being. They noted parallels between personal and collective healing, urging listeners to challenge conditioning that promotes hostility, fear, or addiction. Emphasizing a “mind of Christ” or a consciousness rooted in love, the hosts advocated for self-awareness practices that cultivate true, lasting change and purpose. They encouraged listeners to question mainstream influences and focus on living out of love, offering tools like breathwork, responsibility communication, and purpose exploration as avenues to access deeper truths and achieve personal freedom. |

The October 22, 2024, radio show explored themes of spiritual and emotional healing, personal accountability, and the pursuit of authentic living. Jeanie shared an update on her son Ryan’s health, who is scheduled for surgery due to a tumor, symbolizing both the hope for recovery and the complexity of facing mortality and physical limitations. The discussion then shifted to Vincent, a listener deeply influenced by the book Why Is This Happen to Me Again? by Michael Ryce. Vincent reflected on overcoming his impulses to react negatively in his relationships by focusing on staying in a “loving energy,” using awareness of his triggers to dismantle his conditioned responses and improve his emotional responses, relationships, and well-being.
Michael emphasized the significance of mindful eating, discussing the negative effects of consuming cold drinks with meals on digestion, and he shared insights into cultivating health through conscious dietary choices. The show also explored the broader concept of “carbon-based memory,” a term describing how generational patterns, traumas, and habitual thoughts shape our reactions and experiences. This concept invites listeners to delve into their unconscious conditioning and embrace the idea of “wake-up sheets” or worksheets that allow individuals to process unresolved emotions, cancel goals, and shift perspectives. Through this method, listeners are encouraged to release deep-seated beliefs rooted in trauma, often passed down through generations, and focus on present-moment awareness to dismantle harmful self-concepts and replace them with love-centered perceptions. The discussion further ventured into understanding spiritual teachings as present-moment experiences rather than rigid doctrines of the past. In analyzing scriptures, Michael and a caller examined interpretations of biblical metaphors, like the “sacrificial lamb,” emphasizing the need for active, conscious love in healing rather than relying on outdated notions of punishment and sacrifice. Through concepts such as “spiritual circumcision,” the show underscored the process of cutting away limiting beliefs and harmful attachments from the psyche, advocating for true self-discovery and healing as a sacred, present-moment journey rather than a pursuit of external validation or adherence to past customs.

In the October 23, 2024, radio show, Jeanie and Michael Ryce discussed the significance of clearing internal, generational patterns and the transformative power of presence and love in relationships. Early on, they shared plans for an upcoming intensive in Abingdon, Virginia, centered on Michael’s book, Why Is This Happening to Me Again? The event will focus on helping participants understand and heal emotional patterns through hands-on tools. They continued their exploration of teachings from the Gospel of Thomas, emphasizing Yeshua’s guidance to “cut away” what no longer serves, which they interpreted as freeing oneself from unconscious conditioning and generational trauma.
Michael discussed the concept of “carbon-based memory”—internalized experiences, biases, and traumas that unconsciously drive our perceptions and responses. By repeatedly addressing unresolved emotions and self-reflective worksheets, individuals can dismantle their conditioned mindsets, clearing space for love and conscious action. Michael explained that living from love requires letting go of these memories that distort reality and cause suffering. He further elaborated on this using a lesson from the Beatitudes, interpreting the Aramaic word “Tuvayhun” as instructions to access a latent neural structure of happiness and well-being. This structure, hidden beneath layers of learned fears and biases, can only be accessed when one operates from the “mind of love.” The episode also included a listener, Melanie, seeking advice on maintaining boundaries with family members while ensuring her emotional well-being and that of her son. Michael encouraged her to work on staying present and loving in challenging situations, not for her parents but to reclaim her human essence. By embracing love in the face of familial challenges, she would be setting a powerful example for her son. This approach, they suggested, serves as a pathway to healing long-standing pain by neutralizing reactive patterns through consistent presence and love, ultimately dissolving trauma over time.

In the October 24, 2024, radio show, Michael and Jeanie Ryce continued their exploration of spiritual concepts, particularly from the Gospel of Thomas. The show opened with a reflection on the fall colors and peaceful ambiance in Virginia, setting the stage for a discussion on inner peace, presence, and forgiveness. Michael explained the concept of “carbon-based memory,” where past experiences and generational patterns influence our current perceptions, often limiting true self-awareness. He emphasized the need for “separating from the world” in the spiritual sense, which entails breaking away from old beliefs and attachments to reach deeper self-realization and clarity.
One focus was on teachings attributed to Yeshua, especially around creative energy. According to Michael, people are often unaware of their role as creators and mistakenly believe they lack control over their circumstances. He explained that by understanding the “physics of creation,” individuals can take charge of their energies and move away from replicating past trauma, instead accessing the “mind of love.” Drawing from Aramaic interpretations, Michael shared insights into the true meanings of certain parables and sayings, particularly those lost in Greek translations, which he believes distort the essence of Yeshua’s teachings. He used Yeshua’s metaphors about “the dead burying the dead” to illustrate how unawareness of one’s creative power leads to a life devoid of original, conscious purpose. The discussion took a practical turn as Michael offered examples of how to access the mind of love by releasing internal blocks through forgiveness practices, presence, and emulating divine love rather than reacting from ego-based fears or resentments. He encouraged listeners to reflect on what they turn to during stress, suggesting that those patterns reveal personal “gods.” By choosing conscious love over conditioned responses, he argued, individuals align themselves with the creative energy field of the universe. The session closed with a powerful visualization exercise, encouraging listeners to embody love actively and forgive any negative energy within, reinforcing the teachings of the “kingdom of the Father” and a life of spiritual purpose.

This show delves into the teachings of Yeshua, emphasizing the inner journey towards self-awareness and peace. The discussion centers on interpreting statements from the Gospel of Thomas, specifically the idea of seeking inner rest to overcome external chaos. Yeshua’s message of “overcoming the world” is reframed as a personal triumph over one’s own mind rather than external conditions. By focusing on clearing the mind of fear and hostility, listeners are encouraged to access a space of love and presence within themselves, untouched by external turmoil. The host draws an analogy, explaining that perception is not solely based on what is received through the senses but is shaped by individual consciousness. This aligns with Yeshua’s idea that true perception requires an inner connection, otherwise, one might be “dead” to the deeper truths of existence.
The show continues by exploring the symbolic meaning of a Samaritan carrying a lamb and the concept of “inner resurrection.” According to Yeshua, aligning with one’s inner self, or light, is akin to living, while succumbing to outer projections or ego equates to being spiritually dead. This introspective journey invites listeners to frequently look within, as finding rest in one’s own consciousness is central to achieving balance. In the show, listeners are encouraged to align themselves with this “active presence of love” to reflect it in their actions and relationships. Through regular introspection and alignment, individuals may reduce feelings of hostility or fear, effectively living a more fulfilled, purpose-driven life. The host shares insights on the importance of forgiveness, suggesting it is less about freeing others and more about liberating oneself from inner turmoil. Personal anecdotes illustrate the transformative power of these principles and how they can influence family dynamics, emotional well-being, and even generational healing. The conversation includes reflections on the challenges faced by family members and the resilience developed through compassion and patience. The discussion concludes with a call to listeners to embrace their inner light and to hold space for love, thereby contributing to a collective shift towards a more peaceful world.

October 30, 2024, guest caller Cindy, explores the deep-rooted patterns that affect relationships and the path to healing through Aramaic forgiveness. Cindy, a social worker preparing for her licensing exam, calls in to discuss recurring tensions with her husband. Her husband’s attempts to support her often feel controlling, triggering feelings of resentment and frustration. Dr. Ryce guides her to explore these feelings as a reflection of unresolved “power person” dynamics from childhood, where controlling behaviors from caregivers may have left a mark on how she responds in her marriage.
Dr. Ryce emphasizes that these dynamics are often generational, suggesting that Cindy’s husband likely has his own unresolved power struggles. He explains how, in relationships, partners are drawn together through “matching bags of garbage”—or shared unresolved energies. When one partner’s behavior triggers these old patterns, the unresolved feelings resurface. By using the Aramaic forgiveness process, particularly the Reality Management Worksheet, Dr. Ryce encourages Cindy to cancel the goals she holds for her husband. This process allows her to release her perceptions and reactions tied to past traumas, fostering a deeper understanding and potentially transforming her relationship. Dr. Ryce encourages listeners to actively pursue forgiveness and address their emotional triggers as pathways to healing. He underscores that the purpose of forgiveness, as understood in Aramaic, is not to pardon others but to release judgments and expectations. This episode concludes with a reminder that, through continual forgiveness work, individuals can break free from their past, reach a state of “pure love,” and live authentically.

October 31, 2024 discuss the profound impact of maintaining spiritual connection and mindfulness, especially when facing life’s adversities. Dr. Ryce emphasizes that a key part of personal transformation involves reconnecting with the “presence of love” within oneself, a recurring theme that is explored as listeners share their own challenges. The show touches on the concept of overcoming separation, moving beyond the self as a mere “body mind,” and embracing the experience of “oneness.” Ryce describes how spiritual alignment allows people to experience joy even amid suffering, illustrating this point with a story about a saint who maintained a serene smile while enduring physical hardship.
A caller, Susan, discusses the suffering of animals and her struggles with the concept of shared pain and divine empathy, suggesting a desire for understanding the divine presence in all experiences, whether joyful or painful. Ryce affirms this outlook, noting that this shared experience with the divine can bring a profound sense of peace and shared understanding. Another caller, Magda, grapples with how her environment and interactions have affected her involvement in political activism, reflecting on the tension between personal safety and public advocacy. Dr. Ryce encourages her to find wisdom in prioritizing self-care and considering safe boundaries. Ryce also highlights the “full blessing living” approach, reframing challenges as opportunities for blessings and transformation. The hosts further discuss how thoughts, words, and energies radiate outwards, resonating with others, and potentially influencing their behavior. By cultivating conscious breath and presence, listeners are encouraged to experience healing in body and spirit, moving toward a life aligned with love and peace. |
