Dr Carmen Boulter of the University of Calgary in Canada is part researcher, part brave explorer – venturing into deep and dark places full of danger and mystery in search of the most elusive answers to life’s larger questions. She has an unshakable passion for the Pyramids and ancient Egyptian sites along the Nile, having  traveled there more than 25 times since 1977! Through embassy support, approval from the Supreme Council of Antiquities and the Minister of Defense, Carmen has secured unprecedented access to the Pyramid sites for research and filming. The culmination of her extensive research was just released as a 5-part DVD series, The Pyramid Code.

In this show, we learned:

• Clues about who the Ancients were and what they knew
• That the pyramids are likely much older than traditional Egyptology would have us believe
• What the ancient megalithic sites tell us about matriarchal patriarchal balance
• Advanced Ancient technology very likely did exist
• Secrets hidden within the ancient sites in plain view
• Clues to the spiritual powers of mankind

If you’ve ever been curious about this new generation of Indigo Kids or Crystal Children we keep hearing about — you won’t want to miss this show. Andie was joined by the very wise Dallas Woodburn (22) and little brother Greg Woodburn (20), who have achieved more at a tender age than most of us could hope to achieve in a lifetime.

If you asked them, they would tell you in their humble way, that they’re just following the “golden rule” of treating others the way they want to be treated.  But what else is going on here to enable  such extraordinary achievement? Great parenting? Good genes? An evolutionary leap?

Imagine giving birth to not one, but two kids who went on to become Valedictorians; founders of their own mission-based global organizations; winners of the prestigious Jefferson Award for volunteer work and public service, and of the Congressional Award Gold Medal; one who is a published author, the other who is a painter, and; both who have won more scholarships, fellowships, awards and prizes than one can believe. Meet these two brilliant young people, and find out the secrets to their success from a spiritual and life purpose perspective.

Join Andie Hight for a conversation with young James Leininger’s parents, Andrea and Bruce, who recently wrote a book chronicling their son’s amazing reincarnation story.

Around the time of his second birthday, James began having nightmares that just wouldn’t stop. When he began to relay detailed memories of planes and war tragedies no two-year-old boy could know, Bruce and Andrea Leininger began to realize that this was an incredible situation.

Listen now as they’ll tell us about their book, SOUL SURVIVOR, the story of how the Leiningers pieced together what their son was communicating and eventually discovered that he was reliving the past life of World War II fighter pilot James Huston. As Bruce Leininger struggled to understand what was happening to his son, he also uncovered details of James Huston’s life– and death– as a fighter pilot who was shot down during World War II.

The Leiningers’ belief system was shaken to the core as they have come to know a little boy who, against all odds and even in the face of true skeptics, harbors the soul of this man who died long ago.

Re-Broadcast on Toginet at 10p EST

In this show, my two guests helped us remember the “Wise Woman Tradition” — the oldest known healing practice on our planet. Whapio Diane Bartlett of North Carolina and Amy Long of Georgia are practitioners of this tradition. A core belief of the Wise Woman Tradition is that a woman contains within an innate wisdom to guide her through the experience of birth and delivery. Whapio and Amy are Doulas, trained and experienced in the art of providing continuous physical, emotional and womanly support to mothers and their families before, during and after birth. They empower their clients by helping them balance ancient traditions with current medical practices as needed, to maximize the positive outcomes of the birth experience for all involved.

Most pregnant women are removed from their innate wisdom and power centers and subjected to impersonal and sometimes invasive medical procedures to bring life into the world on a schedule that’s often not their own. Those who practice the Wise Woman Tradition also embrace the concept of healing wisdom passed from one generation to the next, and practice the womanly art of supporting and empowering those in need during all life transitions including birth, death, marriage, and crisis.  If you’re a woman who seeks to understand your inner wisdom better, or if you’re involved with a woman who you’d like to empower, or if you wish to get more in touch with the divine feminine within you if you’re a man, than join us for this fascinating trip back through time on Native Wisdom where we strive to remember who we are and what we know!

Aired Feb. 10, 2010 on Native Wisdom Radio

Listen to a fascinating conversation with Bernie Siegel about the spiritual aspects of healing our lives, feeling versus thinking, learning from adversity, listening to our heart voices, moving beyond the darkness in our lives to love and light. Bernie has touched so many lives all over our planet. As a physician, who has cared for and counseled innumerable people who’s mortality has been threatened by an illness, Bernie embraces a philosophy of living and dying that stands at the forefront of the medical ethics and spiritual issues our society grapples with today. He continues to assist in the breaking of new ground in the field of healing and personally struggling to live the message of kindness and love.

In 1986 his first book, Love. Medicine & Miracles was published. This event redirected his life. In 1989 Peace, Love & Healing and in 1993 How To Live Between Office Visits followed. He is currently working on other books with the goal of humanizing medical education and medical care, as well as, empowering patients and teaching survival behavior to enhance immune system competency. Bernie’s realization that we all need help dealing with the difficulties of life, not just the physical ones, led to Bernie writing his fourth book in 1998 Prescriptions for Living. It helps people to become aware of the eternal truths and wisdom of the sages through Bernie’s stories and insights rather than wait a personal disaster. He wants to help people fix their lives before they are broken, and thus not have to become strong at the broken places. Published in 2003 are Help Me To Heal to empower patients and their caregivers and 365 Prescriptions For The Soul, in 2004 a children’s book about how difficulties can become blessings, Smudge Bunny, in 2005 101 Exercises For The Soul and out in the Fall of 2006 a prescriptions for parenting book Love, Magic & Mud Pies. Published in 2008 Buddy’s Candle, for children of all ages, related to dealing with the loss of a loved one, be it a pet or parent, and to be published in 2009 Faith, Hope & Healing with “survivor stories and my reflections about what they teach us.”
