Australian movie producer, Bill Bennett, comes to InnerZension Radio to share his working knowledge of the Personal Guidance System (PGS). Bill experienced a transformative, near-death experience which shook him out of a very successful 30-year career and planted him on a global quest to better understand the science, mysticism, philosophy, and physiology of intuition. The rational mind takes us out of peaceful inner states as it tries to figure out the correct decision; however, intuition can be more accurate and use less of our valuable energy. Bill calls it: Your Personal Guidance System.

Bill Bennett is an internationally-renowned, award-winning Australian filmmaker, writer, and producer. He has garnered numerous awards over his 30-year career, including Australian Film Critics Circle Awards for Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Writer as well as two Logies (Australia’s Emmy) for Television Reporter of the Year and Most Outstanding Documentary. His films have been distributed through most of the major Hollywood studios, including Warner Bros, Paramount, Universal, and the Samuel Goldwyn Co. He is currently an Adjunct Professor of Screen Studies at Queensland University of Technology, one of Australia’s largest universities.

In order to experience Inner Peace, one must be present to the Now. This is the only true place that peace can exist! But while so many people are teaching these truths, rarely do we find someone explaining HOW to be in the Now. This is why Richard Moss was called upon to help us find the Now and remain in it with his Mandala of Being. In the discussion, Richard and Chris explore various other topics related to conscious living and finding inner peace.

Richard Moss, M.D., is an internationally respected leader in the field of consciousness, conscious living, and inner transformation. He has been conducing training, presentations, and worldwide retreats for over 35 years. He is the author of 7 seminal books that will be included with the published podcast at InnerZension.com, where you can peruse and purchase his books while supporting the show. This is truly and honor to have Dr. Moss on the show!

So many humans berate themselves without ever being aware that they are doing it! It might be obvious to most why self-compassion is so important, but meanwhile we all have bouts of ‘raising the bar’ and ‘magnifying our guilt’ and ‘pouring fuel on our anxiety’ for a subconscious need to improve ourselves. Meanwhile the efforts don’t work but only tear us further down. Basically, we aren’t giving ourselves self-compassion because of hidden needs deep in the subconscious. Nate Terrell comes to InnerZension Radio to enlighten us.

As a licensed social worker in New Jersey, Nate Terrell has been a therapist for over 40 years! 40 years, folks!! Nate teaches interpersonal communication as a professor at Temple University and created a full curriculum of trainings for his company, Organizational Growth, where he conducts workshops and presentations (including topics on self-compassion.) His latest book is “Achieving Self Compassion: Giving yourself the gifts of happiness and inner peace.” He starts this fine work with clearly justifying the importance of self-compassion, and then he explains the various portals into full manifestation thereof. His private therapy practice is in Mullica Hill, New Jersey, and centers his theories around this all-important concept of self-compassion.

Life is made of energy movement, according to ancient Eastern practices. When this energy movement gets blocked, dysfunction manifests…thus the importance of keeping smooth energy flow throughout life. What blocks that energy movement? How does one go about smoothing out blockages? In this episode, Chris interviews an experienced energy practitioner who has been doing this healing practice for over 20 years. Joy Caffrey explains her integration of various energy modalities and how she uses these concepts to increase flow and bring out the client’s natural resonance and radiance. It could be said that any blocks to smooth energy flow is going to produce a reduction or elimination of our sacred inner peace. In short, energy dysfunctions represent inhibitory hurdles to InnerZension. Saying it in reverse, to remain on the InnerZension path, one must learn their personal blocks to energy movement and practice how to resolve such blockages.

Joy Caffrey has been practicing energy healing for over 20 years. She currently practices in Fayetteville, Arkansas and is the Owner/Director of the Joyful Healing Center, where she connects deeply with her clients and reflects back to them their radiance while easing their shame and self-judgement. She is also a visual artist, having graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design. She has been successfully producing graphic design all over the US, but especially in New York City, Seattle, and New Mexico. She completed her 2-year Energy Medicine curriculum in 1994 and has been helping to heal thousands through her growing repertoire of energy protocols.
Joy’s upcoming book is called, “Your Radiance Revealed: Keys to Release Fear, Shame, and Guilt So You Can Live Joyfully.” Joy gives us a very brief summary and shows us why we need to have her back on the show for a dedicated interview on her upcoming book! Stay tuned for the next Joy Caffrey interview!

Arguably THE most critical threat to Inner Peace is sleep (and dream) deprivation. It is well known in psychology and biological sciences that sleep deprivation causes mood disturbance, irritability, depression, learning problems, lack of concentration, health issues, etc. But what about DREAM DEPRIVATION? New scientific inquiry indicates that a lack of REM sleep (where dreams occur) causes a host of psychological problems that trend towards emotional chaos and even brain-related deterioration. In short, your inner peace requires regular and sufficient sleep AND dreams. Without them, InnerZension is just not possible. Bring on a sleep and dreaming expert for our first interview but let’s ensure it’s a top-notch expert. JM Debord more than fulfills our requirements. He was brought onto InnerZension Radio to show you just how important sleep and dreams are to not only our health, but also our road to Inner Peace!

J.M. DeBord has been studying and interpreting dreams for almost 3 decades and in that time his accomplishments are astounding! He is the author of several books (see below), he created an online Dream School for all different levels of learning, and he has become the keynote moderator for Reddit Dreams (under the Reddit handle of “Radowl.”) He has been featured on numerous international radio shows and podcasts, including Coast to Coast with George Noory who called JM “one heck of a dream interpreter.” Do a quick search for JM DeBord and you’ll find a seemingly unending list of interviews and discussions about sleep and dreaming.
