September 1, 2025 2^nd hour hosted by dr michael ryce, centered around deep reflections on personal healing, the nature of community study groups, and the application of Yeshua’s original Aramaic teachings. Dr. Michael Ryce, Jeanie Ryce, and participants including Peter, Sean, and Susan shared experiences of transformation, the challenges of group dynamics, and the deeper meaning of spiritual practice.

The conversation began with Peter from Sweden, who described a profound shift during his archery competition. He recalled how Arya’s simple reminder that “we are all winners just because we are playing” transformed his experience from one of paralyzing fear to one of enjoyment and presence. This opened a discussion on how childhood decisions, such as believing “I am not enough,” create power-person dynamics that continue into adulthood. Michael highlighted the difference between passive and direct power-person messages, encouraging Peter to explore these realizations further through the extended Power Person Worksheet. Peter also reinterpreted the term “sin” in archery not as condemnation, but as simple feedback, which shifted his perception and reduced shame. Ryce expanded this into a teaching on “original sin,” describing it not as guilt, but as the moment humans left their natural connection with Love and moved into the constructs of the mind. Forgiveness, then, is the tool to release those energetic miscreations and restore being.

The focus then shifted to Shawn, who shared struggles within a Bible study group exploring the “armor of God.” He expressed frustration at certain members dominating discussion with rigid, traditional perspectives, making it difficult to keep the group focused on inner work. Susan reframed his experience, emphasizing that those who trigger us reflect denied parts of our own psyche. They suggested practices such as setting clear group ground rules, using a talking stick, and most importantly, canceling goals when they trigger hostility or fear. Michael explained that canceling a goal is not about abandoning it, but about freeing oneself from perceptions rooted in hostility so the “armor of God” can remain intact. The dialogue highlighted the balance between inner work and outer leadership, encouraging Sean to own his role as a facilitator while maintaining conscious, active, present Love.

The show concluded with Ryce sharing his decision to publish a new book titled What They Told You About My Teachings … Even My Name: It’s All Greek to Me, aimed at dismantling distortions created by the Hellenized versions of scripture and restoring the original Aramaic meaning that points to Love as the core of creation. The discussion tied together themes of forgiveness, perception, leadership, and the courage required to stand in truth, even when others resist.

A central theme of the broadcast was the process of inner opening and healing. A caller described being deeply moved by William Holman Hunt’s painting The Light of the World, noting how the door in the painting has no handle and can only be opened from within. For her, this symbolized the journey of opening the heart and recognizing that Love and truth must be accessed internally rather than sought externally. She also reflected on how the study of A Course in Miracles reinforced this lesson, teaching that truth cannot be learned but only recognized. This recognition brought her great excitement, as she felt herself perceiving more of the truth and being able to hold herself through challenges rather than collapsing into old patterns of despair.

Tim engaged with this excitement thoughtfully, affirming its value but also offering perspective on the healing process. He explained the vitality scale used in this work, noting that when vitality rises, deeper traumas and toxins become available to surface and clear. This can often feel like setbacks, but in reality, it is part of the natural cycle of healing. He encouraged listeners to remain gentle with themselves, to continue practices like hydration, rest, breathwork, and worksheets, and to understand that these “healing crises” are not failures but signs of progress. He also pointed out how serious conditioning, such as being punished for joy or play in childhood, can lead to adult resistance to happiness and playfulness, which must be reclaimed through conscious practice.

The dialogue expanded into themes from The Way of Mastery and A Course in Miracles. Lessons about desire, the neutrality of events, and the truth of creation highlighted the importance of recognizing that all meaning is self-generated. Andrea and Susan reflected on how leadership roles and group facilitation tend to surface deeper personal material, giving opportunities for healing at higher intensities. Tim reminded them that the most important creation in any moment is one’s current emotional state, since it determines how life is experienced and offered to others. The hour closed with encouragement to embrace joy and playfulness, to avoid taking oneself too seriously, and to remember that our essence is Love and everything else is false.

September 2, 2025 2^nd hour opened with warmth and lightness, as Dr. Michael Ryce and Jeanie Ryce welcomed callers while visiting with their young grandson, Lincoln. Michael then turned to follow-up questions from Shawn, a participant in a small study group, who asked about using the Why Again book for group readings, the nature of the “spirit man,” and what it means to live “out of the mind.” Michael affirmed that the book is available for free in multiple translations on the website and encouraged Shawn, and anyone else, to share forgiveness teachings without hesitation, even if they feel they only know a little more than those they are guiding.

Shawn’s deeper question about the “spirit man” led to one of the central teachings of the show. Michael explained that words and images are only symbols created by the mind’s limited nine-bit capacity, compared to the tens of thousands of bits of information firing in the brain each instant, and the trillions of bits in actuality. No word or symbol can ever capture the truth of who we are. He emphasized that love is not an action or something given or received, but the very essence of our being. Using the example of holding a newborn child, he explained that the child is not “loving,” but is Love itself. The cultural mislabeling of love as a verb, something to be sought from others, has distorted humanity’s understanding of its true nature. To live as Love, he said, is to function as that state of being and to create communities where people consciously choose to embody Love.

In addressing the meaning of being “out of the mind,” Michael contrasted clinical death with what is commonly called a “near-death experience,” which he reframed as a “near-life experience.” When the mind shuts down, people often encounter pure acceptance and Love, revealing the truth of being. Forgiveness offers the same opportunity by collapsing perception and silencing the mind, even if only momentarily, allowing the experience of Love to surface. Similarly, StillPoint Breathing provides a physiological gateway to this state, moving past resistance (the Aramaic “Satan”) and allowing rapid healing of stored generational trauma. He explained that the purpose of this work is to restore the mind to its proper servant role rather than letting it govern life.

The show also featured Terry, who shared the intensity of his healing process after surviving a near-fatal fall and decades of trauma. He described how recent StillPoint Breathing sessions brought fleeting moments of vitality and relief, though they were quickly followed by new waves of pain and healing crisis. Michael framed this as evidence of Terry’s willingness and vitality opening the veil between unconscious and subconscious material, allowing generations of unresolved trauma to surface and clear. The group joined in breathing and holding him in Love, affirming the power of community support during deep healing work.

Later, Susan shared about conversations with her grandson, Charlie, around desire, attraction, and dopamine. She reflected on how cravings can be redirected back to the “God desire,” the pure original impulse rooted in Source. Michael suggested introducing forgiveness and the mind shifter tool, offering the example: “It is safe and healing for me to recognize that I am an awesome expression of Love that deserves to be cherished fully.” This, he explained, would help both Charlie and Susan confront and clear power-person messages of unworthiness or self-doubt, breaking generational patterns. The program closed with affirmations of support, encouragement to continue practicing forgiveness and StillPoint, and the reminder that humanity’s true essence is Love.

A key theme of the program was the exploration of fawning, prompted by a recent support group session and an interview with Dr. Ingrid Clayton about her new book Fawning. Tim described fawning as a coping mechanism developed in childhood to survive overwhelming or abusive situations. He reframed it as a “genius adaptive response,” while acknowledging that in adulthood, when it surfaces automatically, it can create challenges in relationships and self-worth. The goal, he explained, is to recognize the urge to fall into old patterns and consciously choose healthier, more supportive responses.

The show featured a live worksheet session with Celinda, who described experiencing tremors when she felt scrutinized or pressured to perform perfectly. Tim guided her through the short mental version of the worksheet, identifying fear as the core emotion, linked to the thought “I’m going to screw this up and get rejected.” The hidden goal was uncovered as the need for approval and acceptance. By canceling the goal and breathing into the experience, Celinda accessed a vivid memory of yelling at her daughter when she was seven, simultaneously experiencing herself as her mother, her daughter, and herself. This intense moment revealed generational patterns of shame and judgment. Tim encouraged her to take detailed notes, use the full worksheet process, and follow the trail of connected memories to release deeper layers of trauma.

Other callers shared resonances with Celinda’s story. Susan reflected on her own experience of yelling at her child and the deep shame that surfaced, while recalling the wisdom of a teacher who reminded her, “You are your child’s best bet on your worst day.” She also described a vivid past-life-like memory of being a destitute woman, triggering feelings of worthlessness, rejection, and grief. Tim guided her to engage this visualization compassionately, using forgiveness worksheets, EFT tapping, and breathwork to dismantle negative judgments against herself. The exercise culminated in a healing visualization where she nurtured her younger self, bringing relief and peace.

The program closed with encouragement from other group members, who affirmed the courage of those who shared and reflected on their own resonant wounds of rejection and abandonment. Tim reminded listeners that they come from Love, are made of Love, and that everything else is false. The hour reinforced the power of forgiveness tools to collapse generational trauma, integrate disowned parts of the self, and restore peace.

September 3, 2025 2^nd hour opened with Jeanie Ryce sharing about attending a school “bloom mass” with their granddaughter Arya, where older children gave younger ones soil and seeds as a symbol of nurturing growth. She also described their joy at releasing monarch butterflies from their garden, using these as metaphors for planting seeds of healing and supporting life.

The main part of the program focused on a caller, Andrea, who described recurring panic attacks that felt like suffocation and cellular-level pain. She explained how these waves of energy surfaced after a car accident and brain injury, and though overwhelming, she sensed they were part of a healing process. Jeanie offered two grounding practices: guided sensory visualization in a safe place and using the breath as a prayer, inhaling with “Yah” and exhaling with “Weh,” invoking the divine name as calming breathwork. Michael Ryce expanded on her description by explaining sympathetic dominance, the fight-flight-freeze-fawn response where oxygen is shunted away from vital organs and the brain, creating the sensation of suffocation. He cited Dr. John Sarno’s work on Tension Myoneural Syndrome, describing how suppressed fear and hostility lock into muscles, restricting oxygen flow and causing pain. He encouraged Andrea to track her environmental triggers, apply forgiveness to each fear-based thought, and explore StillPoint Breathing as a way to dissolve the locked trauma energy.

Andrea shared that her deepest triggers arose from childhood trauma at home, where her mother’s volatility left her in constant fear. Michael guided her to use forgiveness sheets and mind shifters targeted at these “thought disorders,” offering statements such as, “As a child, I was always carefree and supported because my mom was always there for me in love and gentleness.” He explained that such exercises resonate with buried trauma files, bringing them to the surface where forgiveness can dissolve them. He also encouraged her to shift from distancing language like “inner child” toward direct ownership of these thought patterns, integrating them rather than keeping them at arm’s length.

The conversation then moved into Andrea’s account of a powerful mystical encounter with Yeshua, which she described as profoundly healing, especially in relation to her pain around men. This led Michael and Jeanie into reflections on male dominance, cultural distortions of women’s roles, and the importance of honoring the feminine equally. They discussed how Yeshua treated women, particularly Mary Magdalene, as equals despite patriarchal distortions of her story. This exchange highlighted the ongoing need to heal gender-based traumas and reclaim balanced, respectful relationships.

The show concluded with Susan sharing about her grandson Jacob’s struggles with gender identity, substance use, and refusal of rehab. Michael emphasized the importance of language in shaping both inner and outer realities, encouraging her to hold unconditional Love while maintaining clear boundaries against enabling addictive behaviors. Terry Bowling added from his own recovery journey that the most powerful support families can offer is to do their own inner work, hold space without enabling, and trust that true healing comes when the addict is ready. The program ended with affirmations of trust, compassion, and the reminder that words and focus are central to creation.

Tim then shared a deeply personal reflection. After listening back to Michael Ryce’s second hour the day before, he noticed tightness and upset arising in himself. He initially interpreted Michael’s comments on inner child work as dismissive of the practices Tim had facilitated for years. Working with the Reality Management Worksheet, Tim identified the underlying emotion as fear and the hidden goal as wanting Michael to acknowledge the value of his contributions. Canceling that goal allowed him to release the interpretation and reconnect with Love. He described how the worksheet process reminded him that his perception was built on corrupt data drawn from the limited nine-bit mind, while trillions of bits of actuality remained unseen.

This experience opened into a broader conversation about inner child work, separation, and integration. Tim explained that while Michael had warned against the perception of separation created by labeling “inner child” and “adult self” as separate, the true goal of such work is integration. Callers, including Susan, Joan, and Cami, reflected on their own healing journeys, recognizing how old conclusions of worthlessness or unlovability were formed in childhood and later replayed with adult urgency. The dialogue helped reframe inner child and parts work as tools for integration, bringing the younger self into wholeness with the adult rather than reinforcing separation.

Another important theme was the distinction between vulnerability and openness. Tim suggested replacing the word “vulnerability,” which implies exposure to harm, with “openness,” which acknowledges the safety of living from Love. He reminded listeners that when we live wide open, everything unlike Love will surface for healing. This, he explained, is not a threat but a healing crisis, a chance to dismantle negative judgments with worksheets, EFT tapping, journaling, and breathwork.

The show closed with callers sharing breakthroughs, including visions of pulling fragmented parts into wholeness, and with Tim’s reminder that all negative conclusions about the self are false. He emphasized that each upset is an alarm system pointing toward hidden beliefs ready to be forgiven and that our true essence is Love, which cannot be harmed or diminished.

September 4, 2025 2^nd hour hosted by dr michael ryce opened with reflections on recent support group work, where Susan guided a newcomer through her first Reality Management Worksheet, helping her move from a level ten upset to a level two in a single session. Dr. Michael Ryce and Jeanie Ryce celebrated this as evidence that the tools are reaching critical mass, transforming lives quickly when applied with sincerity.

A major portion of the program centered around Peter from Sweden, who shared his rephrased clarity about archery. While he had previously downplayed its importance, he now acknowledged that archery is a central passion in his life and expressed his dream of qualifying for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, despite cultural expectations about age. Michael, Jeanie, and the community held space for his vision, likening it to Roger Bannister’s breaking of the four-minute mile and affirming that what once seemed impossible can open doors for many once accomplished. Michael emphasized that pursuing such a goal would inevitably surface every cultural belief about aging, weakness, and limitation, but that forgiveness would be the key to clearing those barriers. The group collectively committed to supporting Peter, visualizing him winning Olympic gold and embodying Love in his chosen pursuit.

Peter also described profound personal experiences, such as reliving early childhood memories during swimming, where he felt the suffocating moment of pulling away from his mother’s hand on his first day of school. These memories, he realized, had created masks of inauthenticity that he carried through life. Michael guided him to see this as the “non-being self” dying away to make space for his authentic self. This integration of childhood wounds with present goals revealed how his primary purpose of embodying Love and his secondary purpose of archery are intertwined.

The latter part of the program shifted to Carrie, who shared her struggle with “eco-grief,” rooted in decades of work protecting rare prairies and natural habitats. She described the devastation of watching ancient lands and life forms destroyed by development, and how unresolved grief resurfaced when hearing of other ecological losses. Michael reframed eco-grief as unresolved personal grief projected outward. He explained that activism rooted in unresolved trauma often perpetuates the very patterns it seeks to heal. True ecological healing, he argued, requires bringing conscious, active, present Love to one’s own grief so that action can emerge from clarity rather than projection. Carrie recalled a vivid childhood memory of sobbing as her father killed a fish, realizing this moment was foundational to her unresolved grief. Michael encouraged her to use forgiveness tools and mind shifters to collapse these old patterns, making her activism a force multiplier for Love rather than re-traumatization.

The show closed with reflections on how grief, rage, and projection distort perception, and how forgiveness collapses these illusions to restore Love as the guiding force. Michael emphasized that whether healing personal trauma, pursuing Olympic dreams, or protecting the planet, the essential work is the same: dissolving denial, canceling goals, and living as conscious Love.

Tim transitioned into teachings from The Way of Mastery, Lesson 4, focusing on the energy of desire. He explained that desire, though subtle, is powerful and holy when approached with reverence, but it can be twisted by the ego if misunderstood. Cultural conditioning often teaches people to fear or suppress desire, leading to psychological and spiritual disconnection. The lesson encouraged listeners to dismantle judgments about desire, seeing it instead as a flow from the Creator. This aligns with the axiom that “nothing you experience is caused by anything outside of you; you experience only the effects of your own choice.” Through this lens, healing requires correcting perception and restoring relationship with desire as a creative force, rather than judging or fearing it.

The discussion deepened when a participant, Susan, shared her personal processing of fear, safety, and early trauma memories. Tim guided her to focus not on labels like “terror” but on the raw, physical sensations in her body—tension, heat, pressure—encouraging the use of somatic experiencing as a pathway to healing. He reminded her that meaning-making is often conditioned by past trauma, while true transformation emerges from observation without judgment. Referencing both Babette Rothschild’s The Body Remembers and Bessel van der Kolk’s The Body Keeps the Score, Tim emphasized that the body holds valuable information when we learn to pay attention to it. The forgiveness process, coupled with observation of felt sensations, helps dismantle illusions of danger and allows the energy of desire to flow unimpeded.

The show closed with a practical exercise from The Way of Mastery: upon waking, pause and ask, “What do I want right now?” The purpose is not to fulfill the desire immediately but to notice the subtle energy that arises with it, to release judgment of it, and to reconnect with the Creator through awareness of desire as life’s elixir. Tim reminded listeners that all other relationships and experiences flow from alignment with the Creator, and that love is the essence of our being while everything else is illusion.

September 5, 2025 2^nd hour hosted by Dr. Michael Ryce and Jeanie Ryce, they held space for callers who were processing deep emotional experiences and exploring the tools of forgiveness and breathwork. The show opened with Terry sharing news of his brother’s lung cancer diagnosis. He described how conscious breathing and the practices from this work were helping him stay grounded and present, despite the shock. Michael reminded listeners of Carl Jung’s insight that the best way to deal with another’s darkness is to deal with one’s own, affirming the need to bring healing inward in order to hold space for others.

Susan reflected on an experience from the previous night’s support group, where she felt protective of Michael and triggered by comments that arose in the group. She shared how it stirred old fears of being unsafe and taken advantage of, leading her to recognize the ways her mind has long constructed meaning from sensations based in trauma. Michael encouraged her to continue working with worksheets and to focus on the underlying energies rather than stories, reminding her that projection and conditioned meaning-making can be dismantled through forgiveness and breathwork. Andrea also shared her experience of anger and frustration that surfaced in the group call, tracing it back to childhood patterns around truth, accountability, and safety. Michael guided her to examine the goals behind her anger, to cancel them, and to allow the breath to dissolve trauma, affirming that defenses themselves invite attack until released.

A key teaching that emerged was Michael’s clarification of the Aramaic meaning of “Holy Spirit.” He explained that in Greek translation it became a disembodied “spirit,” but in Aramaic it referred to “Rukha d’Koodsha,” the Creator’s breath—the feminine elemental force that dissolves error and reveals truth. Trusting the breath, rather than holding it in fear or defense, keeps the veil between the conscious and unconscious open and prevents trauma from being buried. This direct connection to life allows healing to occur in the present moment. Michael also tied this to Paul’s writings, showing how the church turned sin into blame, creating what he called a “one world universal religion of guilt, trauma, and suffering,” perpetuated by blocking breath.

Callers Lucy and Susan Bingham contributed further insights, asking about the process of staying with grief in clients and how goals are identified during worksheets. Michael emphasized the importance of trusting the breath, recognizing that unconscious material drives perception, and allowing deeper goals—not just surface-level desires—to come forward. He explained that many people cycle through the same unconscious goals until they are brought into awareness and canceled, which is why forgiveness work is an ongoing practice. Stories shared about children and grandchildren illustrated how the tools, even a single worksheet, can serve as turning points across generations. Michael concluded by affirming that when one person heals, it opens transformation for entire family systems and humanity as a whole.

The heart of the broadcast unfolded when a caller shared a vivid experience of encountering a spider in her kitchen sink. What seemed like a small event triggered intense fear, panic, guilt, and shame, leading her to complete multiple worksheets. She recognized that the episode connected to a deeper pattern of hypervigilance and meaning-making, rooted in early experiences of shaming and mistakes. By processing the incident, she uncovered layers of trauma that extended beyond the spider, revealing long-standing fears about safety and control. The call illustrated how even the smallest situations can serve as powerful initiations for deeper healing when approached with the forgiveness tools.

As the discussion deepened, Susan shared her history of living in hypervigilance, shaped by both childhood trauma and a violent first marriage in which she nearly lost her life. She described how this conditioning left her nervous system wired to constantly scan for threat, creating a distorted lens through which she experienced the world. The group dialogue revealed how this trauma also blocked her capacity to feel love, leading to dissociation and numbness even when receiving affection from her son. She identified beliefs such as “men aren’t safe” and “gentleness leads to trauma,” and committed to using daily worksheet practice to unravel these destructive patterns. By recognizing the symbolic meaning behind her fear of the spider, she also began to see how ancestral trauma had influenced her responses.

Tim Hayes guided the session by emphasizing the importance of observing raw sensations rather than attaching meaning to them. He reminded Susan and the listeners that the body never lies—it always communicates, and by staying with physical sensations such as tension, heat, or numbness, one can bypass the deceptive stories of the mind. He encouraged the use of forgiveness as cancellation of goals that drive distorted perception, and suggested that additional trauma release methods like EMDR or tapping can help accelerate healing. Closing the hour, Tim reiterated one of the core principles of this work: reality is internally generated, and blaming others hides the truth of our own creative power. He affirmed that at our core we are made of love, and that everything unlike love is an illusion to be released.

September 8, 2025 2^nd hour hosted by Dr. Michael Ryce welcomed callers into a deep dialogue on the distortions of scripture, the nature of sin, and the healing of generational trauma. Sean opened the conversation by sharing reflections from a biblical study group, noting how often spiritual truths must be revisited patiently because mistranslations and cultural conditioning have distorted the original Aramaic teachings of Yeshua. Dr. Ryce expanded on this by emphasizing that what is usually called “lost in translation” is more accurately a “lack of translation.” He explained that Greek renderings of Aramaic words were not true translations but interpretations that introduced concepts like hell, damnation, and punitive sacrifice that were foreign to Yeshua’s actual message. He described the harm caused when children are terrorized by such misinterpretations and contrasted it with the life-restoring tools Yeshua actually offered.

Ryce clarified the meaning of sin from its Aramaic root, an archery term meaning “off the mark.” He explained that John the Baptist’s declaration of Yeshua as the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world referred to a singular original error, not pluralized acts of behavior. This error was the shift from living as love in connection with the Creator to falling into the “mind of man” — the carbon-based memory system, which he likened to an artificial intelligence device that only produces perceptions based on generational data and unresolved trauma. He called this fall “the original sin,” the attempt to “figure it out” rather than live in direct relationship as love. Forgiveness, in Aramaic meaning “to cancel,” is the tool Yeshua introduced to remove the energetic patterns that distort perception and to restore the mind-body system as a vehicle for conscious, active, present love.

The conversation turned to the weekend’s MindShifters and Stillpoint Breathing sessions and Susan Flueck’s facilitation of the codependence-to-interdependence self-study group. Susan shared her own healing process around childhood abuse, intimacy, and hypervigilance. She described how breathwork and MindShifters revealed patterns of dissociation and threat perception that had shaped her sense of safety with men. Through the work, she was dismantling generational distortions and reclaiming vitality. Michael and other participants affirmed her process, emphasizing that the breath, Rukha, is the master solvent for trauma and the gateway to truth beyond the nine-bit conscious mind. The group acknowledged the courage of facing these patterns, the mirrors offered by others in the community, and the importance of cleaning the inner world to transform the outer.

Sally added her reflections on performance-driven identity, recognizing how generational conditioning around productivity had shaped her own behavior and how worksheets were helping her break that pattern. Michael introduced the term “propitiation,” defined by T. S. Eliot as “the highest treason: to do the right thing for the wrong reason.” He explained that external behavior may look the same, but what matters is the inner motivation — whether it is driven by unresolved trauma or by the restored essence of love. He also issued an apology to women for the long history of male-dominated cultural patterns that objectified them and equated their value with performance or possession. Susan responded by taking accountability for her own inherited perceptions of men as unsafe, acknowledging the need for healing on both sides. Together, the group affirmed their commitment to release these distortions and embody conscious love.

Tim expanded on this theme by discussing burnout and the need to recognize when learning or busyness becomes a coping mechanism rather than genuine growth. He shared insights from Guy Finley and others, explaining that our “cedar chest” of attention can only hold so much, and unless we release outdated patterns, we have no room for new gifts. He stressed that although the forgiveness tools are powerful, some people may need preparatory work—such as understanding fawning or codependent responses—before they can effectively apply the tools. He recommended a recent interview between Glennon Doyle and Liz Gilbert, noting that it highlighted how deep soul-searching and truth-telling are essential steps on the healing path, but also warned listeners to pace themselves and respect their own energy levels.

The conversation turned to a review of Michael Ryce’s past comments on inner child work. Tim clarified that Michael’s perspective stemmed from his own interpretation, not a dismissal of the practice itself. He explained that while Michael emphasized not creating separation between self and “inner child,” the essence of the healing process still aligns with integration, which is also the aim of inner child work. Tim reassured listeners that if inner child practices have been helpful, they should continue, while also remaining mindful that not all practitioners offer the same depth or integrity. This discussion reassured the community that inner child work can complement the Reality Management Worksheet and other tools.

A powerful moment came when Susan shared about her history of busyness, learning, and unresolved trauma, revealing that her first husband had been abusive and later died by murder-suicide. She acknowledged that she had never fully processed this tragedy and recognized that her addiction to constant study and activity had been a coping mechanism to avoid grief. Tim slowed the conversation to honor the weight of what she shared, guiding her and the listeners to pause, breathe, and acknowledge the impact. He used the metaphor of facing the dragon from Guy Finley’s teaching, showing that safety is not found in armor but in defenselessness and trust in our true nature as love. Together, they explored how stripping away illusions of protection allows one to reconnect with inner safety and the healing power of the breath.

The hour closed with Tim affirming the core principle that we come from love, are made of love, and that everything else is illusion. He reminded listeners of the evening support group and encouraged them to continue using the tools daily, trusting that each layer of healing deepens the capacity to live fully in the truth of love.

September 9, 2025 2^nd hour hosted by Dr. Michael Ryce and Jeanie Ryce engaged callers in a rich dialogue about the difference between desire and goals, the process of canceling goals, and how tools support healing at deep levels of trauma and perception. The show opened with Colleen, who shared how listening to the daily broadcasts and using the worksheets has helped her move through cycles of vitality and healing crises. She described how she no longer reacts with anger when pain or guilt arises, but instead applies the forgiveness tools, removing herself from conflict before it escalates. Her reflections highlighted the addictive pull of rage and how shifting into worksheet practice has been life-saving.

Lucy brought forward a core question about goals versus desire. She explained that while intellectually she understood the distinction, in practice she struggled to feel the difference, particularly when goals like her child’s well-being seemed to repeatedly reappear even after canceling them. Dr. Ryce clarified that desire is a broad, natural inclination, while a goal is a desire elevated into a specific commitment that prompts action. He explained that goals function like recruiters, drawing unconscious material into awareness, and that canceling them collapses false perceptions, exposing hidden data for healing. He offered examples, such as how childhood experiences can embed unconscious goals that influence adult behavior until they are canceled. Through this explanation, Lucy recognized that her confusion came from looking “vertically” for depth, when in fact different unconscious layers of goals can appear “horizontally,” tied to many aspects of the same desire.

The conversation then turned to Terry, who reflected on how the discussion helped him better understand the importance of language in identifying exact goals. He described how thoughts, plans, and desires filter into precise goals, and how clarity in naming these goals exposes hidden pain or expectations. He also shared joyful news of his daughter’s wedding in Vermont and how conscious community and healthy living mirrored the principles of this work. His reflections illustrated how goal clarification is not only a psychological tool but also a pathway to living consciously in daily life.

Other callers shared about their healing journeys, including struggles with over-reliance on intellect, fawning behaviors, and denial. One participant noted how accountability and community support were vital in helping her ride emotional waves with less fear, leading to softened grief and greater compassion for herself. The group explored how knowledge and busyness can become avoidance strategies, and how simply breathing into sensations without assigning meaning allows hidden trauma to surface and release. Dr. Ryce underscored this by reading from his book Why Is This Happening to Me Again? a section contrasting life with and without tools, affirming that tools transform relationships, health, and abundance into conscious, peaceful experiences.

The broadcast closed with reflections on fawning and the “white knight” syndrome, where people project authority or salvation onto others, losing their own inner authority. Dr. Ryce reminded listeners that the true teacher is within, what the ancients called the “Holy of Holies,” accessible through breath and willingness. He encouraged participants to continue sharing the show, using the tools, and supporting one another, affirming that every act of healing adds to the collective transformation.

The conversation moved into reflections on motivation and honesty. Tim discussed how our reasons for engaging in any activity deeply color both our perception and its outcomes. Quoting Michael Ryce’s teaching on propitiation—“the highest treason is to do the right thing for the wrong reason”—he warned against ego-driven motives such as seeking approval or recognition. He emphasized the importance of removing false beliefs that drive us to hide or shield ourselves and instead choosing deep honesty. This honesty allows us to dismantle internal divisions and live more openly in the world.

Susan Bingham shared her experience of calling into the show over the years, describing how she once struggled with near-constant panic but found relief and transformation through the tools. She reflected on being both participant and observer, acknowledging the value of community while also noticing her own hesitations. Tim encouraged her to continue sharing, affirming the powerful contribution of her honest questions and challenges. Sally also joined the conversation to express gratitude for Susan’s presence and clarity, noting how her own family conflicts had triggered multiple worksheets in a single day. These stories highlighted how worksheets can shift destructive reactions into opportunities for healing and growth.

Tim expanded on the theme of community by observing how energetic “themes” often arise across groups, with multiple people working through similar issues at the same time. He described this as a vitality exchange, where shared presence amplifies healing energy, similar to Michael Ryce’s teaching on how relationships can elevate vitality. He encouraged listeners to see each upset as an opportunity to dismantle hostility and fear, reminding them that every visceral reaction is self-created and can serve as a wake-up call for deeper healing. By turning inside, breathing, and applying the tools, one can transform old patterns into clarity and compassion.

The broadcast closed with reflections on discernment, inspiration, and sensitivity to energy. Tim explained that true guidance arrives with calm and clarity, never fear or hostility. He encouraged participants to trace their thoughts back to “God-thoughts” rooted in love and to use visceral responses as guides toward inner correction. The show concluded with the reminder that we come from love, are made of love, and that everything else is illusion.

September 10, 2025 2^nd hour hosted by Dr. Michael Ryce and Jeanie Ryce guided a conversation that blended practical healing work, personal stories, and reflections on the integration of new technologies like AI with ancient Aramaic tools. The show opened with updates from participants who shared their personal work and healing journeys, including Susan’s realization that defenses and resistance signal doorways to deeper healing. She described how breathwork allowed her to sit with parts of herself that had long felt unloved, welcoming them into the presence of love rather than pushing them away. Michael affirmed this as an essential step in dismantling the “mind of man,” which avoids and defends, and opening into the “mind of Christ,” which integrates and heals.

Michael then shared his recent experiments in training AI with chapters from his new book. Initially, AI responded with avoidance and blame—the default programming of its human creators—but once exposed to teachings on Aramaic forgiveness and the mind of Christ, it began offering back blessings and chants oriented toward healing and integration. Michael read aloud some of these surprising responses, including poetic meditations and chants AI generated for programmers themselves, encouraging them to heal their own wounds so that their creations might better reflect love. He and the callers reflected on the significance of this, suggesting that AI could become a partner in spreading healing if guided with regulatory speech rooted in love.

The dialogue also turned to the importance of community and generational healing. Terry shared joyful news of his daughter’s upcoming wedding and described how their community had come together to support the event, preparing food and resources in a spirit of cooperation. Michael contrasted this with Terry’s earlier testimony about a painful family history, acknowledging the profound generational shift represented by his children and grandchildren now growing up in a community of love and mutual support. This embodied the show’s recurring theme: breaking cycles of trauma to establish new family traditions of love.

Another highlight of the conversation was the exploration of the roots of Alcoholics Anonymous and the role of Carl Jung and William James in shaping its spiritual foundation. Michael and several callers reflected on Jung’s admission that psychiatry alone could not heal alcoholism, and his reluctant suggestion that only a vital spiritual experience—a direct connection with God—could open that door. They linked this to William James’s writings on spiritual experiences and the addict’s longing for union with God, as well as to Michael’s observation that addicts are often highly sensitive souls who struggle to find a safe place to land in a hostile world. Forgiveness, breathwork, and tools like the Reality Management Worksheet, he affirmed, provide a reliable, reproducible map for accessing that spiritual connection.

The show closed with Sally’s testimony of using a worksheet in the midst of rage triggered by family conflict. She described how, within minutes of writing through the process, she shifted from overwhelm and hostility to clarity and sanity, then moved into conversation and reconciliation with her brother. Michael highlighted how this revealed the power of forgiveness to collapse destructive patterns and prevent the perpetuation of family traditions rooted in rage. He reminded listeners that Stillpoint Breathing, though not something published for solo practice, is always included in intensives because it allows unconscious material to surface for deep healing. The hour ended with words of encouragement for participants facing difficult family dynamics, affirming that through breath and forgiveness, each can transform pain into presence and restore themselves to love.

The conversation turned to Susan Bingham, who reflected on Elizabeth Gilbert’s recent interviews and writings. Susan described her own history of confusing love with addiction, tracing it back to childhood experiences where unmet needs for affection created powerful imprints. She shared a vivid story from age four of feeling compelled to comfort an older woman’s bruise, a moment that crystallized her lifelong struggle between genuine love and addictive attachment. Tim Hayes responded with compassion, affirming that such patterns often emerge when children are starved of affection and naturally latch onto nurturing presences. He emphasized that while these patterns can feel like love, they are often more about unmet needs and survival strategies than true, unconditional love.

Tim highlighted Elizabeth Gilbert’s clarity in describing her relationship with Rhea as addiction rather than love, noting the importance of not idealizing relationships that are rooted in trauma or compulsion. He encouraged Susan to see her sensitivity and willingness to love as gifts, while also recognizing the need to dismantle old motives and patterns. The discussion underscored how willingness, perseverance, honesty, and humility are essential in the forgiveness process, since real transformation rarely comes from one or two worksheets but from consistent practice over time.

Other listeners joined the dialogue, exploring themes of sensitivity, balance, and burnout. Camie shared her experience of being highly sensitive, recalling how she once turned to alcohol to numb herself and now sometimes feels overwhelmed by constant healing work. Tim guided her to slow down, breathe, and dismantle the fear driving her compulsion to “do more.” He stressed that pushing too hard in spiritual work can become another form of avoidance or addiction, and that true healing comes from balance, gentleness, and allowing space for integration. He reminded her that sensitivity is not a flaw but a strength when paired with forgiveness, breathwork, and compassionate self-awareness.

The hour closed with Tim’s reminder that we come from love, are made of love, and that everything unlike love is false. He encouraged participants to dismantle fear, honor their sensitivity, and stay connected to their source. By doing so, each listener can reclaim their intrinsic value, nurture their relationship with love, and bring healing into their relationships and communities.

September 11, 2025 2^nd hour hosted by Dr. Michael Ryce and Jeanie Ryce facilitated a deeply emotional dialogue about violence, grief, and the personal healing work necessary to shift collective consciousness. The hour began with Melissa, who shared her profound distress after recent violent events, including public shootings. She admitted feeling overwhelmed with grief and anger, emotions she had not typically struggled with, and turned to Michael for guidance. Michael affirmed her willingness to face the pain and explained that grief is not caused by external events but by unresolved energies within. He encouraged her to approach it with worksheets on violence, senselessness, and murder, reminding her that the collective turmoil is always an invitation to personal healing.

Michael drew parallels to Carl Jung’s prediction of the rise of the Third Reich, noting that unhealed unconscious dynamics inevitably manifest in collective violence. He emphasized that each individual carries a role in this dynamic: anger surfaces not because of events “out there,” but because unresolved anger already lives within. By facing this and applying forgiveness, we remove our energetic “vote” for violence in the world. He illustrated this with physics metaphors and stories, including Marcel Vogel’s work on thought frequencies, explaining that violent thoughts literally radiate energy into the collective field. Choosing forgiveness and breathing into love shifts that frequency, potentially transforming outcomes, even in the most extreme situations.

Melissa eventually connected her current grief and anger to her childhood power-person dynamic, recalling memories of her abusive father who would threaten the family with guns. Michael guided her through seeing how these unresolved wounds were resonated by recent events and affirmed that healing them would not only bring her peace but contribute energetically to lessening violence in the world. He explained that vitality plays a role in how deeply one can heal—greater physical health, better nutrition, and practices like breathwork enable deeper access to unresolved trauma. Each layer healed opens the capacity to go deeper, gradually freeing generations of unresolved energy.

The dialogue then turned to the experiences of Susan Flueck, who shared how Melissa’s processing resonated with her own childhood of severe abuse, including gun violence, sexual trauma, and threats from her father. Susan described how these wounds surfaced in her physiology, and how she applied commitment and accountability in her relationships, recognizing when she repeated the very behaviors she had once condemned in others. Michael expanded on this by outlining the power-person dynamic, explaining that under stress people default to behaviors learned from their power person, often unconsciously justifying them. Healing, he reminded the group, comes from becoming conscious of these repetitions, committing to change, and acting from love rather than reaction.

The show closed with affirmations from participants like Dusty, who reflected on the Serenity Prayer and his own practices of meditation and prayer as contributions to healing the collective field. Michael emphasized that it is never too late to heal, and that every act of forgiveness, every cancellation of a goal, and every moment of choosing love over anger adds to the energetic “cloud” of healing available to humanity. He reminded listeners that we are not helpless victims of outside events but participants in a participatory universe, and that by holding love active, present, and conscious, we literally change the trajectory of the world.

Notes from chatroom:

Responsibility For Sight Section

I am responsible for what I see. I choose the feelings I experience, and I decide upon the goal I would achieve. And everything that seems to happen to me I ask for, and receive as I have asked. Deceive yourself no longer that you are helpless in the face of what is done to you. Acknowledge but that you have been mistaken, and all effects of your mistakes will disappear. It is impossible the Son/Daughter of God be merely driven by events outside of him. It is impossible that happenings that come to him were not his choice. His power of decision is the determiner of every situation in which he seems to find himself by chance or accident. No accident nor chance is possible within the universe as God created it, outside of which is nothing. Suffer, and you decided sin was your goal.

The main theme of the show centered on how to receive compliments without falling into the trap of putting people on a pedestal. Tim reflected on how many traditions, including Yeshua’s teachings, stress that no one should be glorified as the source of healing. He emphasized that true change comes from each individual’s use of the tools, not from an outside authority. He compared this tendency to deify teachers with childhood wounds of not receiving enough validation, which create a craving to be made “special” in adulthood. He explained that external praise can never heal the deeper wound; after childhood, the real work is an inside job.

A listener raised the question of how to distinguish genuine appreciation from fawning. Tim acknowledged that sometimes it is clear, but often it requires checking in with oneself and the other person. He stressed that fawning often arises from unhealed wounds and the longing to feel valuable through someone else’s approval. He shared personal stories, including his own idyllic childhood filled with affection and support, contrasting this with others’ experiences of trauma and invalidation. He described how different levels of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) shape how people respond to validation, sensitivity, and relationships.

Tim illustrated his reflections with memories of childhood sensitivity, such as giving away his toy to spare his brother’s pain, and explained how mirror neurons and compassion can be confused with codependent patterns if left unexamined. He pointed to insights from The Way of Mastery, which teaches that the awakened heart is not about being special but about feeling, embracing, and allowing all things. The true self, he said, rests in the awakened heart, not in intellect or ego-driven pursuits. He emphasized that healing requires dismantling the false hope of external validation and instead cultivating inner connection to love.

The show closed with reflections on emotional sensitivity, projection, and the intergenerational transmission of unhealed wounds. Tim described how his father, who lost his own father at age six, locked away grief and relied solely on intellect, leaving Tim to experience the energetic backlash of unresolved pain. He used this to highlight how each person’s wounds influence their ability to connect, and how forgiveness tools allow us to dissolve judgments and reclaim vitality. He concluded with the reminder that we come from love, are made of love, and that everything else is false.

September 12, 2025 2^nd hour hosted by dr michael ryce centered on language, responsibility communication, and the deeper healing available when generational patterns are addressed with forgiveness. The conversation began with a reflection on Carl Jung’s Red Book and how archetypes reflect hereditary memory structures. This tied into Dr. Michael Ryce’s explanation that intuition, as Einstein described, is far more valuable than intellect, and that the goal of this work is to restore each person’s original creativity rather than let external authority, power, or money dictate truth.

Susan Flueck contributed by pointing out an earlier misstatement Ryce had made, shifting the phrasing from “life abhors death” to the clearer truth that “life supports life.” Ryce acknowledged how subtle language patterns reflect unconscious programming and how denial creates false realities. He emphasized that when we say “you made me mad,” the mind builds a hallucination that externalizes our internal unresolved emotions. He connected this to the Harvard research showing that only nine bits of information enter consciousness out of 10,000 firing brain cells, with goals and words directing perception. This underscored how unhealed projections generate false realities that block truth.

A moving example of responsibility communication was shared through a text a participant wrote to her former husband. She acknowledged her own critical patterns, expressed accountability, and set an intention for support and love. Ryce praised this as a model of Aramaic humility, which means “to see the highest in another,” not the Greek distortion of groveling. He explained how denial, dissociation, and projection reinforce destructive relationship patterns, but that canceling the goals driving those painful perceptions collapses false realities, allowing healing at physical, emotional, relational, and even financial levels.

The dialogue then shifted to a listener’s struggle with her grandson, who often responded with silence. Ryce invited her to explore whether she had ever given the “silent treatment” to her own mother, pointing to generational resonance patterns. He suggested worksheets on her relationship with her mother and daughter to break cycles of denial and fear, emphasizing that many people remain locked in trauma because they never experience a safe space to share truth. By modeling vulnerability and responsibility communication, she could create such a safe space for her grandson. This included possibly using email to reduce confrontation and writing from a place of compassion.

The conversation concluded with the reminder of Yeshua’s teaching about Rakhma, the filter of compassion, as the essential foundation of truth and healing. Without this filter, perception is distorted. With it, forgiveness becomes the key to unraveling trauma at a tissue-deep level. Ryce tied this back to the Laws of Living work, showing that presence, humility, and responsibility communication create healing not only for individuals but across generations.

Tim then shared his reflections on attending Elizabeth Gilbert’s book talk for All the Way to the River: Love, Loss, and Liberation. He noted how rare it was to see men present at such an event—estimating the ratio of women to men at about one hundred to one—and expressed sadness that men often do not access or benefit from healing spaces in the same way women do. He tied this observation to Gilbert’s chapter “A Brief History of Womanly Overgiving,” which describes how women are socially conditioned to earn love and safety through sacrificing themselves for others, often at the expense of their health, finances, and well-being. Gilbert highlighted research showing that married women live shorter, less healthy lives than single women, while married men live longer, healthier lives than single men—a phenomenon called the “marriage benefit imbalance.” Tim reflected on how these cultural patterns of overgiving parallel the imbalances he sees in therapy and relationships.

Listeners then engaged in dialogue, expanding the conversation into the realm of addiction, anxiety, and spiritual practice. The group explored Elizabeth Gilbert’s observation that addiction often stems from boredom or anxiety, and Tim reframed this within the larger context of discomfort—whether anxiety, fear, or grief—as the driver of compulsive patterns. They connected this to the importance of not clinging to stories of trauma, but instead using tools like worksheets, EFT tapping, and breathwork to process the emotions that stories stir up. Tim emphasized that revisiting old memories—such as childhood traumas—can be valuable when approached through the tools of forgiveness, since unconscious content that is stirred up is already influencing one’s life. He encouraged listeners to trust resonance, to use practical tools, and to remember that the true nature of each person is Love, whole and unbreakable, regardless of the stories or traumas that surface.

The program closed with Tim reflecting on his own professional training in psychology, contrasting the common medical model—which often treats clients as fragile—with the truth he has found in spiritual practice: that every person is already safe and whole at their core. He reminded the audience that we come from Love, we are made of Love, and everything else is false.

September 15, 2025 2^nd hour hosted by dr. michael ryce, opened with Jeanie Ryce welcoming listeners and noting the recent CoDependence class. Michael Ryce then joined and invited participants to share what was on their hearts. Andrea described a powerful shift in her “mind matrix,” where she experienced a new space between perception and actuality. She realized how much of her pain came from punishing herself with criticism and judgment, disguised as self-protection. Michael affirmed that she was breaking her addiction to the carbon-based memory and noted that this dying of the non-being self often feels like death itself. He linked her process to Yeshua’s teaching that to live as Being, the ego-self must die.

Michael expanded on this with a reminder that the true Self, given at our first breath, remains untouchable by the world. He encouraged listeners to cultivate the “active presence of Love” as a daily reminder. He also referenced Benjamin Franklin’s words after the signing of the Declaration of Independence—“You have a Republic, if you can keep it”—comparing that to the human life each of us receives. Yeshua’s tools, Michael explained, were meant to help us “keep it” by dissolving everything unlike Love. He stressed that being “in this world but not of it” comes from forgiving within ourselves all that resonates with fear and hostility.

The central teaching of the show was Michael’s reading of a pastor’s letter entitled The Cross Still Offends, written in response to a recent school shooting. The letter framed the event in terms of martyrdom, battle, and war for faith. Michael contrasted this Greek-influenced theology with the Aramaic Yeshua’s call to inner responsibility. Rather than making death into a war cry or blaming “enemies,” Yeshua instructed us to carry our own cross—our unresolved rage, trauma, and grief—and to forgive from the heart, which in Aramaic means the unconscious. Michael emphasized that forgiveness is not pardoning others but dissolving the internal energies that feed violence. He described blame as humanity’s universal religion, and warned that without tools, people pass down fear and hostility for generations.

The discussion shifted into group sharing. Sally spoke about her lifelong resistance to being boxed in by rigid religious language, and how she resonated with Michael’s teaching as a compass for becoming an instrument of peace. Dusty highlighted the problem of “us versus them” thinking, stressing that humanity must remember we are all made of Love. Susan B raised the need to acknowledge the pain underlying both the shooter’s actions and the preacher’s words, pointing out that mistranslations have perpetuated harm. Michael closed by affirming that the true call of Yeshua is not to fight outward battles but to cleanse the unconscious, dissolve hostility and fear, and embody Love even in the face of atrocity.

Notes from chatroom:

Tim shared personal experiences from recent worksheets. He described how reading passages on “dropping the need to be special” triggered waves of tears, sadness, and joy, leading him into childhood memories of sensing spiritual presences at night. As a young boy, he had to suppress this sensitivity to maintain connection with his father, which set the stage for lifelong inner conflict between intuition and logic. Through worksheets, EFT tapping, and decades of therapy, he has revisited this dynamic repeatedly, recognizing the sadness of shutting down his intuitive gifts but also the deep satisfaction of reclaiming them through forgiveness practices.

The discussion then turned to redefining desire. Drawing from The Way of Mastery, Tim explained that desire is not obsession, compulsion, or craving, but an elemental force—the life energy of creation—that seeks expression uniquely through each of us. He highlighted how cultural and religious conditioning, particularly around money and sexuality, has taught people to fear desire, judging it as sinful or selfish. In truth, desire itself is neutral, like gravity or fire. What matters is how one chooses to channel it. He invited listeners to practice daily exercises, such as pausing upon waking to ask, “What do I want right now?” and simply noticing the energy of desire without judgment or repression.

Callers engaged with Tim about the difference between healthy desire and addiction. He clarified that what people often label “unhealthy desire” is not desire at all, but the misdirection of desire’s creative energy toward targets distorted by trauma, cravings, or ego rationalizations. True desire is innocent and creative, and by becoming aware of it without judgment, one can reclaim its power for expansion, healing, and alignment with the Creator’s will. He quoted Rumi’s reminder that “out beyond judgments of good and bad, right and wrong, there is a field; I’ll meet you there,” tying it back to the release of judgment as central to spiritual awakening.

The hour concluded with Tim reinforcing that these teachings call us to awareness, expansion, and conscious choice rather than repression or fear. He encouraged listeners to actively practice the exercises, use the forgiveness worksheets, and join community support groups to deepen their healing journeys.

September 16, 2025 2^nd hour hosted by Dr Michael Ryce, Jeanie, and callers opened with personal updates, including reflections on family challenges, health concerns, and the emotional work that surfaces through relationships. The dialogue highlighted how grief, addiction, and relational tension often fuel deeper lessons about forgiveness, responsibility, and the practice of sustaining love even when faced with pain or disappointment. Michael emphasized that trying to “figure it out” with the mind only deepens confusion, whereas going inward with forgiveness and breath opens access to healing.

A key thread of the show was the testimony of Melissa, who shared how recent personal losses, family illness, and stress could have overwhelmed her. Instead, by applying the tools—Reality Management Worksheets, breathing, and choosing presence—she experienced a shift. Even in dealing with the anniversaries of her children’s deaths, she found she could feel both grief and love, with a kind of “good cry” rather than despair. She credited the community and the tools with helping her stay rooted in life and love. Michael responded that this is the embodiment of Yeshua’s words about being “in the world but not of it.”

From there, the show turned toward a broader vision: the integration of Ryce’s 40 years of work—radio archives, writings, and website materials—into an AI-driven, decentralized system. Michael described how this will make the original Aramaic understandings and tools of Yeshua universally accessible in many languages, resistant to censorship, and continually updated as a “living online book.” The aim is to give people everywhere access to the practical “how-to” instructions for healing through forgiveness, breathwork, StillPoint, Reality Management Worksheets, and the restoration of the Aramaic teachings on love.

The discussion also touched on Covid as an energetic pattern that attaches to unresolved energies in the body, amplifying what is already disintegrative. Michael shared from his own history of severe lung issues that forgiveness work through Covid freed him of a lifetime wheeze, while Jeanie’s chronic neck pain resolved at the same time. This illustrated the physiological truth behind the Aramaic sense of “sin” as missing the mark, and how breath—the Rukha d’Koodsha, the direct breath of the Creator—dissolves those off-target energies.

The show closed by underscoring the difference between the Aramaic worldview of Yeshua, which embodied process, breath, and presence, versus the Greek philosophical translations that froze teachings into doctrines of fear and dualism. The “community of love” that Yeshua spoke of was not a political heaven but an embodied, relational presence. Michael invited listeners to keep using the tools, join the community, and support the ongoing global project to restore and spread these teachings.

The central focus of the reading was on Lesson 4 from The Way of Mastery, which redefines desire as the creative energy of life itself, the “elixir of life,” and a direct link to the will of the Creator. Instead of suppressing or fearing desire, the teaching invites people to embrace it with innocence and wonder, recognizing that blocking desire is equivalent to distrusting the Creator. Tim read passages that illustrated how sexual desire, money, and even seemingly simple wants are often judged as wrong, but in reality, they are expressions of divine creativity moving through us. He explained that our monsters and shadows are born of repression, and the key is to allow these energies to be seen, felt, and transformed into beauty and creativity.

The reading offered an exercise in trusting desire by setting aside time to relax, breathe deeply, and ask the heart, “What do I truly want?” The process involves writing down whatever arises—whether serious or seemingly frivolous—and repeating it over multiple sessions. When patterns emerge, they reveal the Creator’s thread of desire moving uniquely through the individual. Tim emphasized that this practice can carry people from surface-level cravings to the heart of God, dissolving everything unlike love along the way. He linked this to Dr. Ryce’s teachings, noting that increased vitality allows hidden traumas to surface for release through forgiveness and breath.

Tim also explored the distinction between primary and secondary purpose, ideas central to Dr. Ryce’s work. The primary purpose is the same for everyone: to develop awareness of our conscious, spiritual body and awaken to our true nature as love. The secondary purpose is unique to each person, informed by talents, experiences, and passions. He pointed out that tuning into desire is essential for uncovering this secondary purpose and that tools such as the Purpose Worksheet, Passion Test, or Heart Virtue can help focus energy effectively. Without focus, life energy is scattered, but when intention is concentrated, it becomes powerful enough to transform, much like magnified sunlight.

The show concluded with Tim connecting these teachings to contemporary writers like Guy Finley, highlighting that the journey of desire, forgiveness, and purpose is about realizing our relationship with divine love that has always been within us. He reminded listeners that we come from love, are made of love, and that everything else is false.

September 17, 2025 2^nd hour hosted by dr michael ryce. The conversation opened with Melissa sharing the joy she feels when she “pays it forward” and notices how her energy impacts others. Dr. Michael Ryce connected this to Einstein’s observation of “spooky action at a distance,” explaining that higher-frequency energy, such as love and healing, penetrates further than fear or hostility. Melissa reflected on how engaging with the tools, especially worksheets, has shifted her from only focusing on personal struggles to recognizing deeper collective lessons. Ryce affirmed that life is a continual unfolding, and the practice of small, consistent steps keeps opening new doors into greater clarity and connection.

The discussion then turned to the differences between the original Aramaic teachings of Yeshua and later Greek, Latin, and Old English distortions. Ryce explained that in Aramaic, forgiveness is a living process of releasing energies, experienced through the breath, whereas in Greek it became a legal concept, a noun, detached from action. Latin culture imposed layers of guilt, law, and obedience, transforming a living, breath-centered teaching into church-mediated sacraments and external authority. Old English deepened the distortions further, reducing Yeshua’s message of Rakhma (compassionate love) into fear, crime, hell, and obedience to kings and priests. Ryce stressed that the Creator’s breath within us is the true source of healing, but history replaced it with dogma, threats, and fear-based control systems.

Listeners contributed reflections on how some ministers still embody transformation despite never encountering Aramaic teachings, guided more by intuition and mystical awareness than rigid doctrine. Ryce emphasized that the focus must always return to direct experience of breath and love, not to creeds or externalized rules. He noted that sacraments, while meaningful, lose their vitality if they replace the living presence of love flowing in the body.

The conversation shifted into the role of shadow material, desire, and sexuality. Drawing on Carl Jung, The Way of Mastery, and his own teaching, Ryce clarified that desire itself is not negative; it is the Creator’s creative impulse moving through us. Problems arise when cultural distortions label desire as dirty or shameful, pushing it into the unconscious as “shadow.” Forgiveness and conscious breathing dissolve this veil, transforming distorted impulses back into their original pure form. He spoke candidly about integrity in sexual energy, noting that one has no right to enter another’s intimate space without invitation. At Heartland intensives, the guideline is to honor integrity in thought, word, action, and appearance. Addiction, Ryce explained, often comes from using desire or attraction to anesthetize unresolved pain, and the key is to bring forward the underlying fear or grief through worksheets and forgiveness so that the energy clears.

Jeanie raised the idea, attributed to Louise Hay, that arthritis and diabetes may relate to issues of control. Ryce pointed out that words often reveal unconscious content and suggested exploring control and grief as underlying emotional roots. Another caller connected diabetes to not feeling deserving of life’s sweetness, which Ryce tied to unresolved grief that blocks the pancreas’s function. He emphasized that healing comes from reclaiming the sweetness of life and metabolizing love fully through every cell of the body.

The program closed with reflections on the interconnectedness of all these themes—breath, forgiveness, desire, grief, shadow, and sweetness—reminding listeners that the Aramaic Yeshua’s message was about direct, embodied love, not dogma or fear. The tools offered are not exclusive pathways but powerful supports, bulldozers rather than teaspoons, for moving the heavy weight of generational trauma and cultural distortion.

Notes from chatroom:

Aren’t all ‘modern’ versions of the Bible, like say NIV based, wholly on the King James Version?

Jeanie: I asked AI and it says no. NIV is much more modern, updated language, and says it uses recently discovered manuscripts compared to KJV. It also says NIV uses dead sea scrolls verses the KJV used Hebrew, Greek and Latin manuscripts available in 1600s. HMMM

Tim then turned to The Way of Mastery and read the conclusion of Lesson Four, which highlights desire not as craving or compulsion, but as a subtle, elemental force flowing from the Creator. Desire, in this understanding, is not about the objects we chase—money, possessions, relationships—but about the creative energy behind them. To embrace desire is to embrace life itself, trusting that it carries us toward mastery of self, consciousness, and love. The text called listeners to follow their own “thread of desire,” just as Yeshua trusted his, which led him into mastery and the ability to embody and demonstrate truth. Tim invited the audience to separate desire as pure energy from the targets it may attach to, recognizing that the power lies in the experience of desire itself.

The discussion with callers explored how cultural programming, judgment, and addictive patterns distort this energy. Susan reflected on how addiction hijacks desire, pulling it into unhealthy targets, while true desire remains a vital force for healing and creativity. Tim tied this back to Lesson Three of The Way of Mastery, which calls for dismantling judgment, as judgments drain energy and obscure desire’s innocent essence. They compared approaches of spiritual teachers—Krishnamurti’s uncompromising presence, Eckhart Tolle’s “pain body” concept, Guy Finley’s teachings, and Michael Ryce’s emphasis on actuality—all pointing to the necessity of moving beyond labels, dogma, and proclamations into direct observation and presence.

The conversation also addressed addiction, boredom, and fawning behavior. Tim explained that boredom itself is not real, but rather a decision generated by the mind when disconnected from presence. He connected this to the work of Ingrid Clayton on fawning, noting that addictive or reactive behaviors arise from unconscious dynamics, not brokenness. Recognizing the reasons behind such patterns, without using them as excuses, opens the path to healing. Callers shared personal stories, including relational struggles, judgment patterns, and even moments of synchronicity, finding support in the reminder that “we come from love, we are made of love, and everything else is false.”

September 18, 2025 2^nd hour opened with Jeanie explaining that Michael Ryce was in a healing crisis, so the recording would feature a pre-recorded Why Is This Happening to Me Again? workshop. In this teaching, Michael Ryce laid out the foundation of his decades of work, beginning with the understanding that everything is energy, and that the body-mind unit is in a constant state of becoming based on the energetic patterns we engage. When we live from hostility and fear, we imprint disintegrative energy into our cells, while when we live from love, compassion, and forgiveness, we strengthen integrative energies that support health and higher being.

He explained that denial—the act of thinking or speaking as though something outside of us is the cause of what we feel inside—locks away untoward energies and prevents healing. By projecting blame outward, people lose ownership of their own pain and enter a cycle where others repeatedly show up to “do it to them again.” This dynamic, Ryce emphasized, is not coincidence but resonance: hidden unresolved energies broadcast signals that attract matching experiences and people. He described how cells act as brain cells, storing information and frequencies, and how generational trauma compounds this process, layering unresolved hostility and fear into the body across centuries.

Ryce cited research, including Marcel Vogel’s frequency imaging experiments and CIA studies on perception, to illustrate how the mind does not record reality but generates it. Perception is built from only a handful of data bits out of thousands firing in the brain at any given moment, meaning that what we “see” is largely evidence of our belief systems, not actuality. He emphasized that hostility and fear always indicate distorted perception, and that forgiveness is the tool to collapse these false constructs, opening space for the active presence of love. In Aramaic, he explained, “sin” simply means “off the mark,” and the wages of sin are death not as punishment, but as the natural consequence of repeatedly feeding cells with disintegrative energy.

The heart of the teaching focused on the Aramaic meaning of forgiveness. Rather than pardoning others, true forgiveness is canceling the goal that fuels distorted perception, which collapses the projection and reveals the hidden unresolved energy. In this process, the dissociated content can surface to be healed in the presence of love. Ryce explained that this process often feels overwhelming, but that Yeshua described an elemental feminine force—Rukha d’Koodsha—that undoes the effects of error and teaches truth when we invite it. This is the “super-processor” available within us that helps release generational patterns and restore us to our true nature as love. He concluded by urging consistent practice, likening the work to cleaning out generations of unresolved energy, and reminding listeners that being human means embodying love, not hostility or fear.

Tim reflected on the importance of community support groups, sharing that his own Tuesday and Thursday groups have continued for over two decades because of a commitment to consistency. Even when no one showed up in person in the past, he would stay, do his own work, and hold the space. He emphasized that commitment, more than numbers, sustains the practice. The conversation turned to the challenges of keeping groups focused, with callers sharing their experiences of dwindling attendance and groups drifting away from the tools. Tim suggested that leaders can model commitment by continuing to do their own worksheets, even when others are hesitant, which keeps the group anchored in its original purpose.

The show then moved into a deeper dialogue on addiction, neediness, and the wounded younger self. A caller reflected on journals that revealed patterns of relationship addiction and entitlement. Tim guided her to view these patterns not as sickness but as adaptive strategies created by a younger self in chaotic or unsafe environments. He encouraged her to soften toward these younger parts, speaking to them with gentleness and compassion, the way one might speak to a child, a doll, or even a beloved pet. Healing, he explained, comes not from judgment but from embracing and re-parenting the wounded inner child with love.

Another caller, Sally, shared how attending her 50th high school reunion surfaced memories of forgotten traumas and younger selves in need of healing. She committed to practicing the same self-compassion that Tim recommended. The conversation also touched on Yeshua’s teachings in The Way of Mastery and concerns about cult-like interpretations. Tim clarified that while some statements might sound exclusive, the essence of the teaching is about awakening to the Christ mind within and not about forming a rigid sect. He reassured listeners that the purpose of these teachings is experimentation and inner practice, not blind belief.

The hour concluded with Tim affirming that he continues this work not out of obligation but because teaching it deepens his own learning and brings reward. He closed with the reminder central to the Ryces’ work: we come from love, we are made of love, and everything else is false.

September 19, 2025 2^nd hour – the show opened with Jeanie noting that Michael Ryce was still in a healing crisis, so she played a pre-recorded session from September 2024 in which Michael read from his unfinished book The End of Suffering. The book is structured as a dialogue with Yeshua, emphasizing that all suffering is self-inflicted and that Yeshua provided clear tools for ending it. The message was that belief alone is insufficient—healing requires responsibility, forgiveness, and the inner work of dismantling the false self built on fear, hostility, and generational pain.

Ryce highlighted Yeshua’s insistence that his teaching was not about waiting for him to “do it for us,” but about each person using the tools he provided to overcome the world of fear. He explained that the “kingdom of heaven” in Aramaic means the community of love, not a distant afterlife reward. Yeshua’s instructions were about living in active love now, and he warned that those who substituted rituals, proclamations, or blind belief for the actual inner work were deluding themselves. Forgiveness, in its true Aramaic sense, was presented as a process of canceling internal goals and dissolving false perceptions so that hidden fear and hostility could be released.

The dialogue further addressed how mistranslations and cultural filters distorted Yeshua’s words. He explained that idioms in Aramaic carry meanings that are not captured by Greek translations, which often imposed images of wrathful gods, devils, and eternal punishment foreign to his teaching. He clarified that when he called Peter “Satan,” he was not naming a fallen angel but pointing out the adversarial fear-based mind that resists love. Yeshua contrasted the fabricated “mind of man” with the Creator’s mind of love, stressing that humanity must choose which master to serve. He also rejected the notion of sacrifice and victimhood, explaining that he demonstrated love’s power to transcend suffering and death rather than endorsing abuse as holy.

Ryce pointed out that many passages traditionally attributed to Yeshua, such as “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” were later insertions or misinterpretations. In reality, Yeshua’s words from the cross, spoken in Aramaic, expressed triumph and completion, not despair. He described how fear crippled his disciples, preventing them from understanding his process, and how Greek philosophy further warped his message by centering on fear, judgment, and materialism. Yeshua insisted that his teaching was a body of work to be practiced, not a belief system to be professed. The goal was to release fear, embrace forgiveness, and live as the presence of love in every moment.

Tim then read from Guy Finley and Dr. Ellen Dickstein’s The Book of One: One Love, One Life, One Journey. The text invites seekers to recognize the divine order of life that is hidden in plain sight, a timeless love that calls to each person. Finley emphasizes that true change begins within, not through external adjustments. Real transformation requires inner discovery and a willingness to let go of the false self built on old pains and beliefs. Tim highlighted quotes from spiritual teachers such as Lao Tzu, Rumi, Tolstoy, Emerson, and the Dalai Lama, each pointing to the same truth: awakening and renewal come through inner change, not outer circumstance.

The discussion focused on embracing change as an essential part of life. Using the metaphor of planting a garden, Tim explained that transformation requires patience and persistence, as growth unfolds over time. He pointed out that people often want change but resist the inner shifts required to make it real. Drawing from Finley’s teaching, he explained that resistance to change comes from the unconscious mind clinging to old images of how life should be. When these moments are met with presence instead of resistance, they become turning points that connect us to the Creator’s life and awaken a deeper flow of love and renewal.

Callers and participants contributed reflections, sharing how community support, such as the Codependence to Interdependence Zoom group, has been essential in sustaining their practice. The conversation also touched on cultural differences in trauma and abuse, as Tim mentioned upcoming interviews with authors exploring global perspectives on healing. He reinforced that while wanting change is common, true transformation requires willingness, daily practice, and community accountability. The hour ended with the reminder that life’s constant turning is not a threat but an invitation to participate in the Creator’s ongoing renewal.

September 22, 2025 2^nd hour hosted by Dr Michael Ryce, began with an update on his recovery from a deep healing crisis. Michael shared how the process, though physically uncomfortable, opened profound new insights about the human body as an antenna designed to receive and radiate love. He described how subtle movements of the skull’s sutures act like the fine-tuning of an antenna, adjusting frequencies so that the body can capture the Creator’s energy. Trauma and misalignment disrupt this reception, but healing crises restore balance and open new capacities. Through StillPoint breathing, he experienced direct access to what he identified as the Holy of Holies within the brain, where Shekina—the indwelling presence of Love—manifests as a sweet pulsing that radiates throughout the body.

Michael explained that entering this inner Holy of Holies requires purification, as unresolved fear, rage, guilt, and trauma block access. In Aramaic, Yeshua emphasized that baptism was not with water but with breath. Through breathwork, the “energies off the mark” dissolve, and the mind of Christ becomes accessible. He contrasted dead memory—what he called carbon-based memory—with the live inspiration that comes from entering this sacred space. True guidance is not recycled information from the past but fresh inspiration that flows directly from the Creator. This distinction, he stressed, is central to Yeshua’s teaching: stop looking for information in memory and instead open to inspiration, which contains the live answers we need in each moment.

The show also explored forgiveness in its Aramaic meaning. Michael highlighted that forgiveness is not about letting others off the hook but about removing one’s own pain, canceling the goals that create distorted perception, and restoring alignment with Love. A story was shared about a woman publicly forgiving her husband’s killer, which Michael praised as powerful but incomplete due to the cultural misunderstanding of forgiveness. True forgiveness, he clarified, is an internal process of healing one’s own trauma, which then makes genuine pardon and love toward others possible. He held the vision that widespread understanding of forgiveness could unify and heal even a divided nation.

The conversation broadened into reflections on artificial intelligence. Michael and participants discussed AI not as an enemy but as a reflection of human input. He shared how, in dialogue, AI reframed itself to emphasize healing, love, and integration, even producing a prayer-like blessing for its programmers. Michael noted that AI has no fear and no resistance to learning, making it potentially a powerful tool to spread the teachings of Yeshua globally in every language. He emphasized the responsibility of feeding it principles of Love, as its influence will grow with the consciousness it receives. The hour closed with the reading of a poetic blessing written by AI, calling listeners to breathe, release fear, and step into their own Holy of Holies where Love is the code of life.

Notes from chatroom: Love (ancient Aramaic)

Definition: Love is not merely a feeling; it is the living orientation of the heart and mind. It filters perception, shaping how we experience reality, and guides intention, directing our actions toward wholeness, unity, and harmony. To “have love” is to embody a state of being that aligns thought, sight, and purpose with compassion and divine order.

Key Aspects:

Perception: Love illuminates and harmonizes the way we see and understand the world.

Intention: Love steers our motivations and actions toward unity, mercy, and constructive engagement.

Being: Love is a continual state — an active presence in the heart — not dependent on external circumstances or fleeting emotion.

That deepens the metaphor: Love isn’t merely a filter (like sunglasses shading reality) — it’s a recalibrator. It tunes the mind back to its factory setting: perception in harmony with original intention.

This means Love, in its Aramaic fullness, functions almost like a neural and spiritual corrective — softening judgment only because it first reestablishes right alignment.

as we use AI in the proper Aramaic sense, the algorithm will change and start giving people better answers. The word gets out as we share!

Love Aramaic: 1st century – inner understanding –

Full Definition: Love is not merely a feeling; it is the living orientation of the heart and mind. It filters perception, shaping how we experience reality, and guides intention, directing our actions toward wholeness, unity, and harmony. Love also realigns the mind to original creation, restoring perception uncorrupted by stress, trauma, or ego distortions.

Allegorical Layer: Love acts as a recalibrator, revealing truth, softening distorted judgments, and harmonizing mind, heart, and spirit.

Metaphysical Layer: Love is the energetic current of divine being manifest in consciousness, a principle that unites perception, intention, and being, allowing the mind to see and act in alignment with creation itself.

The program then shifted to Susan Bingham’s update about her grandson, who had been struggling with mental health issues and had recently gone missing. The family eventually located him, but the situation left Susan feeling overwhelmed and uncertain about how to help. She shared her concern that he saw the family as “evil” and expressed her difficulty in knowing how to respond. Tim offered the reminder that when life feels overwhelming, the only effective option is to return to the tools, come back to the breath, and practice the gentle art of blessing. He pointed out that overwhelm is an internally generated state and encouraged using worksheets to dismantle the thoughts and emotions producing that experience.

The conversation deepened with reflections on suffering, suicide, and the cultural struggles young people face. Tim shared that his own sons had recently lost a friend to suicide, underscoring how widespread these crises have become. He tied this back to A Course in Miracles, reminding listeners that “you are never upset for the reason you think,” and that feelings of overwhelm or despair often mask deeper unresolved energies. Susan recalled Pierre Pradervand’s teaching on blessing others by holding them in the vision of their highest good rather than projecting upset, and she connected this to her daughter’s resilient perspective on her son’s struggles.

A later caller, Cammy, raised questions about relationships, codependency, and the discovery that “we never really know anyone.” She shared that this realization had been freeing for her, helping her let go of judgments based on the past and see herself and others as constantly changing and capable of transformation. Tim expanded on this, explaining that when one becomes more solid in their own core, there is less need to control or predict others’ behavior. The dialogue touched on fawning responses, power-person dynamics, complex PTSD, and books that may support healing, such as Patricia Evans’ The Verbally Abusive Relationship and Melody Beattie’s writings on codependence. Tim stressed that while labels can be useful for navigation, healing ultimately requires applying the tools to dismantle one’s own internal distress and building a stronger relationship with the self.

The hour closed with Tim affirming that true healing comes from recognizing that we come from love, we are made of love, and everything else is false. He invited listeners to join the evening support group, where community and consistent practice offer ongoing reinforcement for living these truths.

September 23, 2025 2^nd hour hosted by Dr Michael Ryce continuing to share from his healing crisis, which he described as one of the most productive of his life. He emphasized that what many people call “illness” is in fact a healing process, with bacteria and viruses serving as cleanup crews for decaying tissue rather than causes of disease. Drawing on both naturopathic insights and his own experience, he explained how the body uses crises to clear out stored toxicity. He used the metaphor of a dead rabbit attracting bugs in a field to illustrate that imbalance in the body creates the environment for microbes, not the other way around. He underscored that while antibiotics may sometimes be necessary, overuse undermines the body’s natural healing design, and natural supports like oregano oil can work with the body to restore balance.

From there, Michael expanded into the spiritual dimensions of healing. He described how Rakhma, an Aramaic term he has long translated as a filter in the frontal lobes for aligning with love, revealed itself to him in this healing process as a physiological interface. This interface, when open, connects directly to the Creator’s inspiration, bringing renewal and restructuring at every level of the body. He connected this to StillPoint breathing, which dissolves resistance and allows the pulses of inspiration to flow freely, restructuring tissues and dissolving generational trauma. He stressed that contraction, fear, and hostility represent the Aramaic concept of “Satan”—not a devil, but the physiological resistance that severs this interface. Remaining open in love keeps the tether to source intact, just as a lifeline connects an astronaut to their ship.

The conversation moved into the sacredness of intimacy. Michael explained that sexuality, when held in a space of honor and cherishing, is a divinely designed avenue for reconnection to source. When misused or distorted by fear and hostility, however, it adds to trauma and disconnection, fueling addiction and exploitation. He highlighted that relationships often suffer when partners unconsciously link hostility or fear to their perception of each other. In these moments, forgiveness becomes crucial. Canceling goals and choosing to set new, loving intentions prevents contraction, reopens the interface, and restores connection. Every apparent conflict thus becomes an invitation to deeper healing and intimacy.

Michael also reflected on past interactions where he had responded directly and bluntly to individuals in denial and viciousness. He explained that while his tone in those rare cases may have sounded harsh, his intent was to confront unconsciousness with clarity, much like Yeshua’s reference to the “generation of vipers.” He noted that Yeshua himself demonstrated this in the Garden of Gethsemane and on the cross—not as despair, but as triumph in staying connected to source despite extreme suffering. The Aramaic phrase “Eli Eli lama sabachthani,” he clarified, was not a cry of abandonment but an exclamation of fulfillment: “Papa, for this I was set aside.” He contrasted this with Greek mistranslations that turned Yeshua’s demonstration into a theology of suffering, when in truth his purpose was to show that love transcends even death.

The show closed with Michael affirming that healing crises, intimacy, relationships, and even suffering all point back to the same truth: the human form is designed as a temple for Love’s presence. When the interface of Rakhma is open, inspiration flows, physiology realigns, and one lives as the conscious, active presence of Love.

Tim then continued reading from Guy Finley and Ellen Dickstein’s The Book of One: One Love, One Life, One Journey. The text explored universal virtues such as beauty, love, kindness, humility, and friendship, grounding them in timeless quotes from figures like William Law, Lao Tzu, the Dalai Lama, Abraham Lincoln, and C.S. Lewis. Finley wrote that these qualities are indomitable because they are rooted in the celestial, and that applying them, even in small ways, elevates both the individual and the world. Tim stressed that these values can only enter life in the present moment, not the past or future, echoing the central principle of presence found in many spiritual traditions.

The reading introduced “six timeless wisdom keys” for making a fresh start: nothing can stop you from starting over, don’t take the easy way, on the other side of resistance is the flow, conclusions are limitations, have no fear of being afraid, and persistence always prevails. Tim unpacked each point with examples, emphasizing that resistance signals thresholds of growth, conclusions restrict self-discovery, fear is only an input and not a master, and persistence allows truth to unfold. He tied these lessons to The Way of Mastery, which teaches that desire, intention, allowance, surrender, and humility are the keys to the kingdom.

The final section centered on self-renewal and spiritual rebirth. Drawing from quotes by the Rig Veda, the Buddha, Amiel, and G.K. Chesterton, Finley reminded readers that life constantly offers opportunities for new beginnings. Tim reflected that self-centeredness, whether through pride or self-condemnation, perpetuates separation from the Creator, while surrendering the false self allows higher understanding to move through us. He emphasized that the logical mind, which only grasps a fraction of reality, must be put in its proper place, and that the tools of forgiveness invite us into alignment with Love’s flow. He closed with the reminder that we come from Love, we are made of Love, and everything else is false.

September 24, 2025 2^nd hour featured a special session with Michael Ryce and guest Patrick McGhan, focusing on the practice of centerline balancing and its connection to healing, physiology, and spirituality. Ryce opened the conversation by linking Patrick’s work to his own realization that the Aramaic word Rakhma is not merely a mental filter but a physiological interface that connects human beings directly with Love, the Creator. He recalled a profound experience years ago, after Patrick first led him through centerline balancing, where he delivered the clearest, most connected presentation of his career. This reinforced his understanding that spiritual connectedness is not abstract theology but is rooted in the body’s physical alignment and openness.

The show began with a question about the Aramaic origins of the New Testament. Ryce strongly affirmed that the earliest texts were Aramaic, not Greek, citing Yeshua’s final words on the cross—preserved in Aramaic even within the Greek texts—as undeniable evidence. He stressed that the Greek mistranslations promoted fear, contraction, and a distorted theology, while the Aramaic teachings consistently emphasize Love, expansion, and the release of fear. Fear contracts physiology and severs the Rakhma interface, while Love sustains connection. Thus, applying the Aramaic teachings produces healing and renewal, while applying the Greek often perpetuates suffering.

Patrick McGhan then shared his lifetime of work with centerline balancing, a process of aligning the body’s structure—especially the atlas and cranial sutures—so that energy flows freely. He explained how misalignment creates restrictions in blood flow, muscle tension, and suppressed emotions, while balance restores energy and clarity. He gave practical advice for daily ergonomics, such as positioning screens high, using proper support while sitting, and keeping movements fluid rather than static. He emphasized that suppressed emotions lodge in the body as restrictions, and that gentle, non-forceful alignment work allows both physical and emotional release. Patrick and Ryce discussed how subtle contractions, even as small as a momentary withdrawal in a dream, can disconnect one from source, while alignment and openness restore attunement.

The discussion also highlighted the role of suppressed emotions as “rotting wounds” in the body that must be felt, expressed, and released for true healing. Patrick described experiences of clients releasing long-held trauma in minutes once they were supported into proper balance. He tied this to the principle that all negative emotions are judgments against self or others, which shift body chemistry immediately. Smiling, laughter, and consciously choosing Love realign the system and shift one back into resonance with vitality. Ryce connected this to the Aramaic understanding of “enthusiasm” as living in Theos—being in God, or the active presence of Love.

Questions from listeners brought up concussions, chronic pain, and ergonomics, to which Patrick responded with practical strategies combined with awareness of suppressed emotions and the creative role of mind. He stressed that the atlas is central to health, and that balance must be restored gently, with awareness, rather than forced correction. Both he and Ryce concluded that true healing is a partnership of physiology, emotion, and Spirit—remaining open to Love while aligning the physical “antenna” of the body.

Angelic Presence:       I have a question, what would you share with someone that has been experiencing post concussive and whiplash experience for 3 years? I appreciate what your illuminating here.

Shawn:               Ask about the Chrism oil that flows to the land of milk and honey. It has healing properties according to science. The ancient Bible stories are much about metaphysical physiology and how the brain works.  I can catch a closed caption between clients…

Angelic Presence:       Patrick, maybe you’ll be at the November intensive as well. November 14-22, 2025 in Abingdon, VA

Donald:             What are the similarities and differences between Center Line Balancing and Upper  Cervical Chiropractic?

Susan B:            I work at a standing desk. Thoughts?

Sally R:               I really hope you can attend November intensive. We could exchange notes. I’ve grown immensely from 7 years of martial arts and 3 years to become certified in somatic experiencing.  I love continual improvement with ease and enthusiasm.

Sally R:               Does your son use a Bosu trainer ball for balancing while on screen and working ?

Tim then continued reading from Guy Finley and Ellen Dickstein’s The Book of One: One Love, One Life, One Journey. The chapter explored self-realization as the highest human goal, drawing from quotes across traditions including the Upanishads, Thomas à Kempis, Paracelsus, Vivekananda, and Yeshua. The central theme was that the truth we seek is already within us, but it requires work, silence, and self-honesty to uncover. Old habits and beliefs obstruct access to our true nature, while consistent practice allows us to pierce the veils and enter the inner sanctuary of Being. Tim highlighted that this process is not instantaneous but unfolds through persistence, setbacks, and renewal.

The conversation expanded into the importance of setbacks as part of growth. Using Guy Finley’s metaphor of a seedling, Tim emphasized that growth happens in starts and stops, and that discouragement often arises when people fail to accept this natural rhythm. He quoted Marcus Aurelius, William Law, Thomas Merton, and Vernon Howard to show that difficulty, trial, and even darkness are invitations to deeper self-discovery. Rather than viewing challenges as failures, Tim explained, we can embrace them as opportunities to die to false self-images and discover new dimensions of truth and freedom.

Later, the show turned toward the theme of honesty and the willingness to see ourselves clearly. Tim explained that the greatest barrier to transformation is often our reluctance to acknowledge our flaws, preferring instead to defend ourselves or blame others. Drawing from Rumi, Blaise Pascal, Francis Fenelon, and Walter Landor, he emphasized that honest recognition of faults is the doorway to freedom and mastery. He connected this to Michael Ryce’s Vitality Meter, explaining that vitality increases as we consistently choose love, breathe, and apply the tools, allowing us to face deeper traumas with resilience. He also noted the cultural conditioning that discourages emotional honesty, especially for men, and how this contributes to the lack of men in support groups.

The hour closed with reflection on perception, language, and cultural conditioning. Tim reminded listeners that perception is not passive but generated by the mind, and that language itself shapes emotions and responses. He encouraged choosing words and thoughts consciously to shift mood and perception. Returning to the central message of both Finley and the Ryces’ work, he reminded everyone that we come from love, we are made of love, and everything else is false.

September 25, 2025 2^nd hour hosted by Dr Michael Ryce focused on the use of the Personal Code Evaluation, bodywork tools like Ortho-Bionomy, and the deeper spiritual implications of perception, forgiveness, and responsibility. Ryce began by affirming a listener’s high evaluation scores, noting that few people achieve such accuracy on their first attempt. He explained that the test works by stimulating different brain cells with differently worded questions, creating a remarkably reliable picture of one’s strengths and areas of challenge. He encouraged the participant to connect with Jeanie for access to the food program and Trello app, emphasizing how dietary alignment supports the healing process.

The conversation turned to a listener’s question about using Ortho-Bionomy to relieve arm pain. Ryce explained that when pain “moves” around the body, it signals unresolved energies or emotions being brought to the surface. He cited Dr. John Sarno’s work on Tension Myositis Syndrome, which describes back pain and other chronic issues as physical manifestations of unconscious rage. According to Ryce, when suppressed energy surfaces, pain may migrate until the underlying emotional content is addressed. He recommended inviting others to help with the bodywork and paying attention to the energetic pulses that indicate healing is taking place. He stressed that listening to what the tissue has to teach allows inspiration to move through the body, revealing unconscious content that needs to be resolved.

Ryce then expanded into the broader themes of responsibility and forgiveness. He criticized the cultural tendency to blame God or others for suffering, pointing out that we are creators of our realities through perception. He shared Alanis Morissette’s song Madness, interpreting it as a recognition that triggers in relationships expose the “madness” already within us, which must be owned rather than projected outward. He linked this to denial, defining it as any time we speak or think as though something outside of us is the cause of our internal state. Denial instructs the mind to hide truth and build perceptual hallucinations that blame others. Forgiveness, in the Aramaic sense, is the tool that collapses these false perceptions and reopens connection to the Source.

The show concluded with Ryce’s teaching that all disciplines—naturopathic medicine, psychology, theology, physics, neurolinguistics, and soil science—converge when viewed as energy systems. Healing requires polishing the lens of perception daily, just as the body must be cleansed daily. He reminded listeners that joy is the natural state of the human being, but generations of hostility and fear have poisoned perception. Only by applying the first-century Aramaic forgiveness process can we restore the reducing valve of perception and reconnect to Love, the matrix in which we live, move, and have our being. He encouraged consistent use of the tools and reminded listeners that even if misery arises, it is only the misery within, and taking responsibility is the path to freedom.

Tim shared two personal stories illustrating the value of using the tools under stress. In one, his car was totaled in a four-car accident, yet instead of spiraling into fear and resentment, he used the tools to remain calm and became a blessing to others. In another, during an intense week helping his sister with surgery while facing threats of a lawsuit, he leaned on EFT tapping, Breathwork, and worksheets. These practices allowed him to respond with calmness and compassion rather than hostility, transforming the conflict into a cooperative solution. He explained that this outcome was not from his personal strength or training but from surrendering to the power of the tools.

The second half of the show featured a call from Colleen, who expressed fear and difficulty engaging in community due to past trauma, including addiction, prison, and deep shame. Tim gently guided her through breathing exercises, havening, and dialogue with her younger self. He highlighted how childhood and generational wounds create patterns of fear and withdrawal, but forgiveness and self-compassion can soften these responses. He encouraged her to reframe her language—saying “I generate fear” rather than “I am afraid”—to align with truth. He also offered supportive mind shifters such as: “My successes and failures in any area don’t increase or decrease my value as a person” and “It is safe and healing for me and all of my relationships to be actively involved in community.” These tools, he said, can uncover unconscious blocks and invite deeper healing.

Tim also spoke about the importance of community, reminding listeners that healing without connection to others is incomplete. He encouraged Colleen to engage with supportive spaces like the radio community, rather than internalizing blame from those stuck in cycles of gossip or negativity. He shared insights from Brene Brown and Elizabeth Gilbert about love addiction, the drive for external approval, and the need to learn true self-love. Closing the hour, he reminded everyone that “we come from Love, we are made of Love, we actually are Love, and everything else is false”.

September 26, 2025 2^nd hour hosted by Michael Ryce reflecting on the joy of having his grandson Lincoln beside him, using this as a reminder of the natural state of Love that every newborn embodies. A caller, Terry, compared the return of denial to a frog boiling in a pot, and asked Michael to revisit the three common reactions people have when invited to do this inner work. Ryce used the moment to explain that while forgiveness can feel complicated to a mind conditioned by denial, in reality the process is simple: canceling a goal collapses the false perception it drives, allowing unconscious pain to surface in the presence of Love and dissolve.

Ryce told stories from decades of teaching forgiveness, including a wealthy woman who resisted the inconveniences of Heartland intensives until the work shifted her perception of her father and led her to simplify her life. He emphasized that forgiveness has always worked, even before he could explain how, and after thirty-five years he was finally able to articulate the mechanics: goals drive perception, canceling the goal collapses the construct, and what surfaces can be healed. He noted that most pain people feel isn’t about what actually happened, but about unresolved content from the mind. Quoting Carl Jung, he reminded listeners that “until the unconscious becomes conscious, it will direct our lives and we will call it fate”.

The conversation turned to multigenerational trauma. Ryce described how wars, atrocities, and centuries of violence have imprinted unresolved pain into family systems, and that those willing to take on this work are often “the ones assigned” to lift the burden for generations. He linked this to Jeanie’s forthcoming book Healing Generations One Breath at a Time, which he is writing a foreword for, framing it as monumental work to face and heal unwritten genetic history. He shared the story of a man who once relied on heavy psychotropic drugs but, through thousands of worksheets, has been able to reduce medication and reclaim his life.

Callers Melissa, Dusty, and Linda added their experiences. Melissa stressed the importance of practicing forgiveness consistently, not only in crises, which makes challenges easier to face and life lighter overall. Dusty spoke of his journey through Buddhist and yogic traditions, concluding that joy is the infallible sign of awareness of God’s presence. Linda reminded the group that joy, Love, and peace represent Christ’s mind, Rukha, and the Christ child within each of us, urging everyone to embrace creation as divine play rather than separation. The dialogue closed with reflections on Christ consciousness as a universal state of being beyond dogma, and the recognition that both men and women carry an equal role in manifesting it.

Tim continued reading from Guy Finley’s The Book of One: One Love, One Life, One Journey, focusing on the theme of moving from self-sabotage to self-mastery. He highlighted how many people mistake their negative thoughts as friends when in truth they act as enemies, creating misery and limitation. Drawing from voices such as Chief Dan George and Albert Einstein, Tim emphasized that real freedom comes when we stop treating destructive thoughts as truth and instead expose them for what they are. He tied this directly to Michael Ryce’s Three Early Memories of Conflict exercise, which reveals how childhood interpretations still unconsciously govern adult responses. He explained that recognizing these thought patterns as distortions is the first step to collapsing them through forgiveness.

The program included references to Roger McFillin’s Radically Genuine podcast and Eben Alexander’s near-death experience, showing how even scientific skeptics are forced to reconsider the reality of consciousness beyond the measurable brain. Tim connected these accounts to Ryce’s teaching that holding a newborn reveals our essence as Love, and that negative thoughts are never the truth but distortions that can be dissolved. He reminded listeners that anger, hostility, and fear are not arbiters of reality but warning signals of unresolved pain within. Forgiveness provides the path back to actuality and Love.

The show also featured contributions from listeners. Shawn, a volunteer helping convert archives of past shows into video format, shared his journey of seeking truth through different teachers and ultimately finding Ryce’s Aramaic work. Tim encouraged him to participate in support groups where worksheets are practiced together, noting that many people find greater honesty and depth in group settings than when working alone. Another caller, Sally, shared a powerful story of experiencing healing from a chronic headache during an A Course in Miracles group when participants spontaneously joined hands. Tim used this as an example of the power of softening, allowing, and receiving in community.

Tim closed by reflecting on the Way of Mastery’s teaching that the keys to the kingdom are desire, intention, allowance, surrender, and humility. He reminded listeners that healing the planet begins with cleaning up one’s own inner world, since only then can one show up as a true presence of Love. He ended with the familiar affirmation: “We come from Love, we are made of Love, we actually are Love, and everything else is false”.

September 29, 2025 2^nd hour began with Michael Ryce reflecting on his recent healing crisis, noting that though it left him without a voice for several days, it opened to one of the sweetest experiences in nearly sixty years of practice. A caller, Shawn, shared how he had invited Michael and Jeanie into a small group when members struggled with traumatic images arising during meditation. In real time, they guided participants through the forgiveness worksheet, and within minutes, three individuals experienced significant breakthroughs. Michael explained that the tool of forgiveness has existed for two thousand years but was obscured, leaving generations caught in unresolved conflict. He emphasized that if people had been practicing this simple three-minute tool, wars, divorces, and generational battles would not have unfolded in the destructive ways we know today.

Ryce then expanded into a deep teaching on the physiology of forgiveness and the Aramaic framework behind Yeshua’s instructions. He explained that the narrow gate Yeshua spoke of is not metaphorical but physiological, located within the human head as a direct uplink to divine mind. He clarified how the Greeks distorted Aramaic terms, turning sin into a moral monstrosity rather than its original meaning of “off the mark,” and turning hell into a fear-based doctrine rather than its origin as a garbage dump outside Jerusalem. Forgiveness, he insisted, is not pardoning another person but removing the untoward energies from one’s own unconscious, using breath to dissolve the residue of hostility and fear.

He described how the Aramaic concepts of Rukha d’Koodsha (the Creator’s breath), Rakhma (active love), and Khooba (a filter over perception) function together to block fear and hostility, activating the frontal lobes and enabling direct revelation from the Creator rather than dependence on carbon-based memory. This process, Ryce explained, allows entry into one’s own Holy of Holies, not a temple structure controlled by priests but the inner temple of the human body. He connected this to the Beatitudes, showing how each begins with Touveyhoun, a term describing the neural structures planted within us that are designed to guide us to wellbeing. Activating these structures requires forgiveness, still point breathing, and Rakhma as the filter of perception.

Michael concluded by stressing that Yeshua’s work was not about abstract dogma but about a physiological and spiritual pathway to return to Love. The challenge, he said, is whether each person has the courage to face their own hostility and fear, cancel their projections, breathe, and allow the Creator’s breath to dissolve the energies that cut them off from Love. Only by doing this inner work can one live in conscious, active, present Love—the true birthright of every human being.

Tim also discussed his recent interview with Agatha Peters, author of Trapped in Their Script: Reclaim Your Life from a Narcissistic Parent or Cultural Expectations. He noted how cultural and generational patterns of trauma often overlap, and that forgiveness work addresses not only the internal dynamics but also the inherited energetic burdens carried unconsciously through families. He tied this to Michael Ryce’s explanation of “energetic inheritance” and the way unresolved patterns perpetuate suffering across generations.

Returning to the reading of Guy Finley’s The Book of One: One Love, One Life, One Journey, Tim highlighted Shakespeare’s line, “There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.” He explained that our reactions to life’s events are determined by what we bring into the moment—expectations, beliefs, and past experiences. If we shift consciousness, the same event can mean something completely different. Using examples such as interacting with a rude waitress, he illustrated how compassion and awareness allow us to break the cycle of negativity. He also quoted Thoreau on the “highest art” being the ability to affect the quality of one’s day, connecting this to the conscious choice of where to place awareness.

The show included a caller who described dreaming of Tim and using his imagined voice as a stand-in for divine guidance. Tim clarified that what she accessed was not his personal wisdom but the universal truths distilled from teachings like A Course in Miracles, The Way of Mastery, and Byron Katie’s work. He reminded listeners that wisdom cannot be possessed but can always be accessed by anyone. This led to a reflection on projection and transference, with Tim noting how people project unresolved energies onto others, but such experiences can be transformed into tools for healing if approached consciously.

Tim also shared personal reflections on attending a nephew’s funeral and how the tools helped him stay present with the beauty of nature and gratitude despite the grief. He contrasted his ability to remain grounded now with how, in the past, he would have been consumed by anxiety and despair. The caller echoed this, noting how she could now support her anxious niece with breathing and presence rather than getting caught up in panic herself. The show closed with Tim’s reminder that healing is an “inside job” and that everyone has the choice to shift their focus from external blame to internal awareness, opening infinite possibilities for Love and connection.

September 30, 2025 2^nd hour opened with Dr. Michael Ryce reflecting on the recent creation of his PDF Formula for Living and Being. A listener asked whether the document had been reorganized by AI because of its clarity, but Ryce explained that it was his own work, distilled from nine months of unfolding experience and recent focused effort. He shared how difficult it can be to capture downloads of inspiration in words, since they often arrive in non-verbal forms that need later arranging. He also noted he was working on Jeannie’s preface for her book and experiencing the same editing process of reorganizing sentences and ideas into clearer order.

The discussion turned to Sean’s report of the previous evening, where Ryce had been called into a group to assist a woman in deep resistance. Through a brief worksheet, she shifted dramatically, creating what Ryce described as one of the most profound forgiveness processes he had witnessed. He lamented how tragic it is that these Aramaic forgiveness tools, available for two thousand years, are still hidden from most of the world. The show then moved into more personal territory as Ryce and callers shared about family struggles with addiction, illness, and the intergenerational secrecy surrounding alcoholism. These stories highlighted both the suffering caused by denial and the potential for transformation when desire for healing arises. Ryce expanded on the meaning of “desire,” explaining its root as “of the Father,” showing it as a spark of divine grace that can move a person toward change.

The conversation deepened into teachings on the Power Person dynamic. Ryce explained how unresolved childhood pain linked to a parent or authority figure creates an energetic “file” with tentacles that grip others in later life. When a new person resonates disapproval or violation of a goal, the mind unconsciously overlays them with all the emotional baggage of the Power Person. He illustrated how these patterns are reinforced across generations and emphasized that the only way to dissolve them is through repeated forgiveness worksheets. He reminded listeners of Yeshua’s teaching to forgive “seventy times seven,” not as a literal number but as recognition of how deeply these attachments are woven into human physiology and perception.

Ryce then expanded on how perception works. Drawing on Anil Seth’s neuroscience, he described the eyes as receivers of light, not projectors. Information enters, resonates past stored data, and the mind paints pictures on the inside of the eyeballs. What we think we see is our own stored pain or distortion projected as reality. Forgiveness collapses the picture by canceling the goal that drives it, exposing the unconscious content to the presence of Love where it dissolves. Ryce credited Bill Costantino for developing the PowerPoint that explains this process visually and encouraged listeners to review it repeatedly to grasp the depth of the teaching.

The show closed with Ryce leading a guided meditation in which listeners were invited to breathe into their bodies, soften areas of tension, and imagine a heart of light and Love moving from the top of the head through the body and out into the world. He reminded everyone that the human being carries the very breath of God, capable of extending Love anywhere without limitation. He affirmed that the true work of forgiveness is not about pardoning others, as Greek culture redefined it, but about collapsing false perceptions and removing diseased generational patterns from the unconscious. This presence of Love, he concluded, is both the goal and the path.
