A bonus re-air from my recent appearance as a guest on Anahata Ananda’s podcast, “Shamangelic Healing.”  I talk about breaking free from substance abuse, the toxic manifestation of childhood trauma, and shame. As well as diving deep into the dynamics of the 12-step program: the spiritual roadmap that gifted me the tools to get mentally and physically sober.    03:20 — Our Collective Battle Against Addiction Why we sedate with substances and experiences Attraction and aversion  The shame of abuse Coming home to the inner-child  Loss of innocence and inner-sense  Chasing a sense of oneness through substance abuse   25:55 — Acknowledging Addiction & Becoming Sober  Trading one addiction for another  A startling realization during a mushroom journey When “getting high” stopped working  Choosing medicine over poison  How shame snowballs addiction Finding the connection to Source   56:33 — Curing the Root Cause  Looking beyond physical addiction Mental and emotional sobriety using spiritual tools Breaking down the 12-steps  Taking ownership and responsibility in your actions Improving our relationship with God  Serving and contributing to the community  My recent relapse with nicotine (and how I beat it!)   JOIN MY NEW ONLINE EMF HOME SAFETY MASTERCLASS! Visit www.lukestorey.com/emfmasterclass to join. Only $149! Are you aware of the dangers of EMF exposure in your home, but have no idea where to start when it comes to finding, and fixing them?  Are you concerned about your exposure to the current 3G, 4G, and 5G wireless networks now activated in most major cities? Have you attempted to test the levels yourself using EMF meters you found online and ended up confused and frustrated? EMFs (electromagnetic frequencies) are one of the most toxic elements in our living and work environments. Due to the technical nature of accurately testing for them—and the training required to do so properly—many of us resign ourselves to the fact that we just have to accept them and the consequences they bring in order to use the modern technology we depend on. But you don’t have to. In this seven-part video documentary series, you will follow world-renowned building biologist Brian Hoyer as he tests an entire home, room by room, to determine the source and level of every known type of EMF. By the end of this series, you will not only be thoroughly educated on the various types and sources of EMF commonly found in homes but also of the many mitigation tools and techniques available thanks to the cutting-edge technologies.
