NLS 041: This One Thing Took Me a LIFETIME to Figure Out! with Lars Muhl
Lars Muhl is a Danish author, mystic and musician, born in Aarhus, Denmark in 1950.Already as a 10 year old, Lars Muhl had experienced glimpses of another reality. The shock, following the sudden death of his younger sister, caused painful kundalini-like experiences, giving access to the ethereal worlds and a hypersensitive insight into other people’s pain. This lasted for three years.A turning point came when Lars was 15 and received a book anonymously in the post. Hazrat Inayat Khan’s ‘Gayan, Nirtan, Vadan’ became the start of a lifelong esoteric study. Lars was for many years a successful singer/songwriter who, concurrently with his music, studied the world’s religions and esoteric knowledge. Then in 1996, he was struck down by an unexplained illness, which neither doctors nor alternative therapists could diagnose. For three years he lay in bed without being able to move or think straight.Through a close friend’s intervention, Lars was put in touch with a seer who, via the telephone, brought him back to life. That was the start of a completely new existence and the beginning of that quest he has so grippingly described in his trilogy book ‘The O Manuscript’.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

Douglas is known for his intensity of awareness and his incredible capacity to facilitate people to ‘know what they know’. He chooses to embody consciousness in everything that he does which inspires others to choose to become more conscious as a result.Gary came with an exceptional level of awareness into the Midwest middle class ‘white bread’ family and lived the ‘Leave it to Beaver’ childhood. He has a very different view on life and realized that he was so different from most of the people he knew when he was only six years old.He became aware of this difference by watching people create their lives and seeing that none of it was about the joy and the possibilities – it was always about the wrongness of everything. Gary knew there had to be more than this reality was offering since there was nothing about it that was magical, joyful or expansive. So, he began seeking deeper awareness to life’s mysteries at an early age.Along the way he uncovered a new way forward- one that would create change in the world and in people’s lives. He discovered that magic is all around us; it’s something we create – it's consciousness. He recognized that the capacity to be more aware and more conscious was every person’s gift if they were willing to choose it.Over time what he recognized as the gift he was, was his intensity of awareness and his capacity to invite people to consciousness and to recognized that everything is possible and nothing is impossible. His gift is his ability to look at life, the universe and the consciousness that we all are, as well as the possibilities that are an intrinsic part of it from a space that no one else has ever chosen.Empowering people to see different possibilitiesGary has become an internationally recognized thought leader in transforming lives and creating different choices – willing to empower people to see different possibilities and to recognize what is truly possible for them. Gary is acknowledged worldwide for his unique perspectives on personal transformation that is unlike anything else in the world.

His simple yet profound teachings have already facilitated countless people throughout the world to ‘know what they know’ and to realize what they can choose that they never realized they could choose.At the core of his teachings lies the transformation of consciousnessAfter recognizing that greater consciousness in people can change the direction of their lives and the future of the planet, the creation and expansion of Access Consciousness by Gary has been primarily driven by a single question, “What can I do to help the world?”He continues to inspire others, inviting the awareness of a different possibility across the world and making an immense contribution to the planet. He facilitates people to know that they are the source for creating the change they desire and creating a life that goes beyond the limitations of what the rest of the world thinks is important. He sees this as an essential aspect to creating a future that has greater possibilities in it for everyone as well as the planet.This is a priority not only for personal happiness but also for the ending of violent conflict endemic on our planet and creating a different world. If enough people choose to be more aware and more conscious, they will start to see the possibilities of what they have available to them and change what is occurring here on planet earth.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

NLS 037: Doctor REVEALS RAW TRUTH: Why EVERYTHING You’ve Been Told About THIS IS WRONG! with Dr. Steven Gundry
Are "healthy" foods actually killing us slowly? Today's guest will help us find out. For over thirty years, Dr. Steven Gundry has been one of the world’s pre-eminent experts in heart surgery. His experiences took him to new frontiers of medical science. He was a driving force behind major breakthroughs in medical technology and surgical procedures – breakthroughs that revolutionized the way doctors save lives.But back in 2001, while he was Head of Cardiothoracic Surgery at Loma Linda University, he was asked to treat a chronically ill, overweight patient. This man was considered a hopeless case, someone who couldn’t be helped even by surgery. But “hopeless cases” have been a specialty of his over the years, and he was willing to take on this man’s challenge when no one else would.He discovered that the patient had actually reversed his heart-threatening symptoms – symptoms he was told were inoperable – with a combination of natural, dietary nutrients. This led Dr. Gundry to pursue further research of his own. The conclusions he made were unmistakable… and they led directly to the foundation of Gundry MD.One of the keys to strong, sustainable health lives in all of us… in the form of beneficial microbes. These “good bacteria” are in danger of dying out, due to dietary and environmental issues that overload our systems with threatening “bad” microbes. Once you begin taking care of your “good” microbes – or, as Dr. Gundry likes to call them, “your gut buddies” – you can begin an incredible transformation.When he first met this “lost cause” patient, he was seriously overweight himself. Dr. Gundry had high blood pressure, “bad” cholesterol, all the warning signs for oncoming diabetes and heart disease. He worked out regularly and tried to watch his diet, but he was still struggling with his weight. But by following the principles of my new research – a study he now calling “Holobiotics” – Dr. Gundry lost 70 pounds in just one year.Dr. Gundry holds patents on several life-saving medical devices. His new research in the field of “Holobiotics” helps patients get healthy without surgery.The path to Gundry MD…This is why, in 2002, he left my former position at California’s Loma Linda University Medical Center, and founded The Center for Restorative Medicine. Dr. Gundry has spent the last 14 years studying the human microbiome – and developing the principles of Holobiotics that have since changed the lives of countless men and women.His center – based in Palm Springs, CA – is devoted to teaching patients how to live healthier lives through diet and lifestyle choices. Dr. Gundry ultimate vision is to help them avoid the kind of surgeries I performed for over three decades.And the rest of the medical world is still catching up.You see, while Dr. Gundry has been able to serve a few hundred patients a year at my medical centers, he knew his reach was limited. In fact, he currently has a 6-month waiting list for those who wish to see me in Palm Springs.While he love seeing patients, he knew he could also help more people by providing small, easy steps that anyone could take to improve their health at home. You don’t have to wait even one week to take advantage of these simple discoveries that have been life-changing for many others. And, if you’d like to see what others thought, read all Gundry MD reviews.His new book is Unlocking the Keto Code: The Revolutionary New Science of Keto That Offers More Benefits Without Deprivation.Like many doctors and nutrition experts, bestselling author Dr. Steven Gundry has long endorsed the ketogenic diet - a style of eating that heavily restricts carbohydrate intake to make the body burn fat for fuel. Because ketosis offers a variety of health benefits, including weight loss, reduced risk of illness, and enhanced energy, Dr. Gundry believed his patients’ efforts to adhere to the challenging regimen was worthwhile. That is, until his research uncovered a shocking truth: We’ve gotten keto all wrong.In Unlocking the Keto Code, Dr. Gundry reveals the biological mechanism that makes keto diets so successful: a cellular process known as “mitochondrial uncoupling.” As it turns out, ketones are not the magical fuel source they’ve been made out to be; in fact, the body cannot run on ketones and fats alone. Over the long term, a very low carb-diet can lead to muscle wasting and poor cognitive health. Luckily, you don’t have to restrict all carbs to reap the benefits of ketosis; you simply have to have enough ketones and other plant compounds called polyphenols present in your body to “unlock” the process of mitochondrial uncoupling. In this insightful, empowering, eminently practical book. Dr. Gundry explains the many ways listeners can ignite this process, from feasting on plant-based foods (carbs that are typically off-limits on a keto diet!) to enjoying ketone generating foods such as goat and sheep milk products, to implementing a timed eating schedule. You will even discover the real reason how superfoods, even apple cider vinegar, work their magic; and its not what they you think!Grounded in cutting-edge science, this is the book for all the people who have tried and failed on a keto diet; for vegetarians and vegans who want to go keto; and for anyone who wants to lose weight and enjoy better health while eating a wide variety of foods. With food lists, hacks, and all-new recipes, Unlocking the Keto Code makes going keto easy and enjoyable for the first time.Enjoy my eye-opening conversation with Dr. Steven Gundry.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

OKOW is providing kids with the basic (yet essential) fundamentals like desks and books, as well as paying teachers’ salaries, building classrooms and even installing solar power technology so students can study at night. OKOW’s most recent project #OneGirlOnePad will provide access to reusable feminine hygiene kits to over 4,000 girls in Kenya, allowing them to attend school all year round.
