Take Back Your Mind

🌿 Begin your new year with Michael in Costa Rica! Sign up for his New Year's Meditation Retreat: https://events.agapelive.com/new-year-retreat/ Explore what can happen when astrology becomes less about prediction and more about remembering who you are, understanding your unique design, and returning to the parts of yourself you may have learned to hide. Today Michael welcomes Debra Silverman. Debra Silverman is an astrologer, psychotherapist, spiritual guide, author, and founder of Debra Silverman Astrology. For nearly 50 years, she has combined her master's degree in Clinical Psychology with a practical, soul-centered approach to astrology, helping people better understand themselves, navigate change, and cultivate greater compassion. She is the author of The Missing Element and I Don't Believe in Astrology: A Therapist's Guide to the Life-Changing Wisdom of the Stars, host of the I Don't Believe in Astrology podcast, and creator of a psychological-spiritual model rooted in astrology and the four Elements. Her Applied Astrology school has educated thousands of students worldwide, and she has worked with figures including Sting, Madonna, Aaron Rodgers, Shailene Woodley, India Arie, and Julianne Hough. At the heart of her work is a simple conviction: astrology is medicine for the soul. Conversation Highlights Include -Why astrology can serve as a kind of "true north," giving language to the personality traits, patterns, and inner tensions we may have struggled to understand. -How the parts of ourselves we once judged as "too much," too quiet, too emotional, too controlling, or too different may actually be expressions of our natural gifts. -Why self-criticism and the "gremlins" of the mind can pull us away from our authentic nature, and how greater self-understanding can help us come home to ourselves. -How the four elements—water, air, earth, and fire—can offer a simple framework for understanding personality, balance, and the different ways we move through life. -Debra's distinction between the ego and the soul, and how she uses the rising sign as a doorway into what she sees as our deeper spiritual nature. -A conversation on destiny, free will, and why our greatest freedom may lie not in controlling what happens, but in how consciously we meet what life gives us. -Why relationships and triggers can reveal the very lessons we are here to learn, and how turning inward can free us from trying to change everyone around us. Next, Michael closes with a guided meditation on becoming still, observing the mind without judgment, and awakening more fully to our real nature and potential. 🪷 For more on Debra and her work, her books, her courses, and more, visit: https://debrasilvermanastrology.com/ and follow her across social media. ✨ Got a question about life, love, money, or spiritual growth?

🌿 Begin your new year with Michael in Costa Rica! Sign up for his New Year's Meditation Retreat: https://events.agapelive.com/new-year-retreat/ Discover what becomes possible when fear is no longer a stop sign, but an invitation to move beyond the familiar, reclaim your potential, and become more of who you are here to be. Today Michael welcomes Monica Berg. Monica is an author, speaker, spiritual teacher, and co-director of the Kabbalah Center, a global nonprofit dedicated to making ancient spiritual wisdom practical and accessible. She is the bestselling author of Fear Is Not an Option and Rethink Love, and co-hosts the Spiritually Hungry podcast with her husband, Michael Berg. Through her books, teachings, masterclasses, and speaking, Monica helps people navigate fear, relationships, purpose, personal growth, and emotional resilience with greater awareness and compassion. See details below on Monica's new Fear Masterclass starting Oct. 27th! Conversation Highlights Include: -Why fear is not something to hide from or suppress, but something we can understand, face, and ultimately change our relationship with. -How staying in the comfort zone can quietly shrink our desires, limit our potential, and keep us from discovering who we are still becoming. -Monica shares how the birth of her son with Down syndrome forced her to confront one of her deepest fears and ask the empowering question, "If fear is not an option, what is an option?" -Why fear can function as a guidepost, pointing us toward the places where our greatest growth, possibility, and becoming may be waiting. -The difference between real fear, healthy fear, and illogical fear—and why learning to identify which one we are experiencing can change how we respond. -How naming our fears, questioning them, and taking small, consistent steps can help us stop giving fear the power to steal our potential. -Why certainty is not about knowing exactly what will happen, but developing a deeper trust that whatever unfolds can serve our growth. Next, Michael closes with a guided meditation on conscious evolution, asking what gift we are here to contribute and inviting us to become active participants in our own unfolding. 🪷 Sign up for Monica's new Fear Masterclass launching on 10/27.* This masterclass will unpack how to recognize fear in its many forms, and most importantly, how to overcome it and begin to live fearlessly; plus get her books, listen to her podcast, and more at https://rethinklife.today/. ✨ Got a question about life, love, money, or spiritual growth?

🌿 Begin your new year with Michael in Costa Rica! Sign up for his New Year's Meditation Retreat: https://events.agapelive.com/new-year-retreat/. Explore how heart-brain coherence can help us move through stress with greater clarity, reconnect with the intelligence of the heart, and cultivate a more resilient way of meeting a rapidly changing world. Today, Michael welcomes Howard Martin. Howard is Executive Vice President of HeartMath, where he has spent decades helping individuals, leaders, organizations, and high-performance teams apply the science of heart-brain coherence in everyday life. His work bridges science and practical application, helping people understand how stress affects the nervous system and how greater coherence can support emotional balance, cognitive clarity, resilience, and more conscious responses under pressure. Conversation Highlights Include -Why burnout is not inevitable, and how the nervous system can be retrained even after long periods of chronic stress. -How stress is shaped not only by what happens around us, but by our perceptions, emotional responses, and the meaning we give our experiences. -What happens physiologically when the nervous system becomes overloaded, and why chronic stress can narrow our perception, diminish hope, and affect our overall quality of life. -How heart-brain coherence can help bring the nervous system back into balance, opening greater clarity, emotional steadiness, and access to a bigger-picture perspective. -Why intuition may be one of our most important forms of intelligence in a world filled with noise, uncertainty, and difficulty discerning what is real. -How the inner shifts we make toward compassion, empathy, and nonjudgment can influence the people and environments around us. -A simple daily practice of pausing, noticing what we are feeling, choosing what we would rather feel, and breathing that new feeling through the area of the heart. Next, Michael closes with a guided meditation on shifting perception, remembering our real nature, and moving into greater coherence through stillness, gratitude, and conscious intention. 🪷 Learn more about HeartMath's evidence-based stress reduction system and check out their many offerings—books, coaching, certification programs, and products including Inner Balance Coherence Plus—and receive a 10% discount when you use this link: https://www.heartmath.com/beckwith. ✨ What's your Life Question?

Listen in for a moving conversation on music as medicine, the healing power of sound, and what can happen when grief becomes a doorway to deeper connection, purpose, and love. Today, Michael welcomes Jeralyn Glass. Jeralyn is an internationally acclaimed singer, teacher, and pioneer in the field of sound healing, as well as the creator of the Source app and author of Sacred Vibrations: The Transformative Power of Crystalline Sound and Music. After a career that took her from Broadway to opera and concert stages around the world, her work took on an even deeper purpose following the passing of her only son, Dylan. Through sound, meditation, and sacred practice, Jeralyn discovered a path through grief that became a calling to help others experience music as medicine and reconnect with greater wholeness. Conversation Highlights include: -Why music can reach places words cannot, creating a language of the heart that connects us across age, culture, experience, and even grief. -How Jeralyn's lifelong relationship with music evolved from performance into a deeply personal healing practice after the passing of her son, Dylan. -The powerful question, "How do I tune myself?" and what it means to see ourselves as human instruments capable of coming back into harmony. -How sound gave Jeralyn a safe place to feel and release grief that was too large to express through words alone. -Why allowing ourselves to fully feel grief can open the way to healing, light, joy, and a continued sense of connection with those we love. -The intersection of the mystical and scientific dimensions of sound, and why some aspects of music's healing power may reach beyond what science can currently explain. -How intention works with frequency, and why bringing conscious purpose to music and sound can deepen the experience of healing and transformation. Next, Michael and Jeralyn close the episode with a guided meditation accompanied by crystal singing bowls, inviting listeners to awaken to their True nature, remember their calling, and receive the medicine of sacred sound. 🪷 *Get your copy of Sacred Vibrations: The Transformative Power of Crystalline Sound and Music here: https://www.crystalcadence.com/sacred-vibrations/.

A quick note: You may notice a few brief audio drops during Caroline's conversation due to an occasional connection issue. Thanks for your understanding. What if some of the limits we've accepted about human potential aren't limits at all? Today, Michael welcomes Caroline Cory, an award-winning filmmaker, author, speaker, and Consciousness researcher whose work explores human potential and the nature of reality. She is the founder of Omnium Media and has collaborated on Consciousness research with scientists affiliated with Harvard, Stanford, and the Institute of Noetic Sciences. Her films include Superhuman: The Invisible Made Visible, A Tear in the Sky, and her latest film, Superhuman 2: The Rebirth, in which Michael is one of the contributors, explores Consciousness and untapped human potential through documented experiments and scientific inquiry. Conversation Highlights Include: -How extraordinary experiences beginning at age five awakened Caroline to what she describes as a larger field of consciousness. -Why Caroline felt compelled to move beyond personal spiritual experience and bring the study of consciousness into the laboratory through scientific research and experimentation. -The connection Caroline sees between deeply held beliefs, emotional patterns, and the body—and one remarkable healing experience that helped shape her work. -How Superhuman 2: The Rebirth expands the exploration of extraordinary perception by working with people who are blind. -What happened when participants were trained and tested to identify shapes, letters, words, and objects despite profound visual impairment. -The provocative possibility that consciousness may perceive beyond the physical senses, including one experiment that surprised even Caroline. -Why Caroline wanted the film to show that extraordinary human potential can express itself in many different forms, from remarkable perception to extraordinary musical and cognitive abilities, and more. Next, Michael leads a guided meditation on withdrawing attention from the distractions of the world, becoming present with the breath, and awakening to the infinite potential within. 🪷 Follow Caroline Cory here: https://carolinecory.com and across social media. ✨ What's your Life Question?

Press play for an inspiring conversation on trusting the spark within, having the courage to follow your own path, and turning your gifts into something that can serve others! Today, Michael welcomes Laila Ali, undefeated boxing world champion, entrepreneur, wellness advocate, television host, author, home chef, and speaker who has forged her own path across sports, media, wellness, and purpose-driven living. The youngest daughter of Muhammad Ali, she retired from professional boxing with a 24–0 record and went on to build a career centered on health, confidence, service, and empowering others. Her new children's picture book, A Spark of Greatness: The Autobiography of a Fighter, draws from her own journey to encourage young readers to recognize their inner strength, trust their unique gifts, and believe in what is possible for their lives. Conversation Highlights Include: -Why every child carries a God-given spark that needs to be discovered, nurtured, and supported by the adults around them. -The connection between literacy, confidence, and critical thinking—and why young people need more than information to find their place in the world. -How discipline, preparation, courage, and character helped transform a strong-willed young girl into an undefeated world champion. -Why confidence doesn't come from wishful thinking, but from knowing what something requires, preparing for it, and being willing to put in the work. -The importance of giving children unconditional love while allowing them the freedom to discover their own path rather than deciding their future for them. -How knowing "I've got your back" can give children a deeper foundation of confidence, security, and trust as they move into the world. -Why faith became one of Laila's greatest sources of strength—helping her prepare fully, release what she couldn't control, and step into the ring with calm certainty.

Press play for a powerful conversation on why manifestation begins with healing—and how spiritual practice helps us return to the worthiness, guidance, and inner alignment already within us. Today, Michael welcomes Gabrielle Bernstein. Gabby is a #1 New York Times bestselling author, spiritual teacher, speaker, and host of the Dear Gabby podcast. For nearly two decades, she has helped millions deepen their spiritual connection through books including Self Help, The Universe Has Your Back, and Super Attractor. Recognized by The New York Times as a model for a new generation of spiritual seekers, Gabrielle brings together practical self-help, spirituality, and personal healing to help people live with greater faith, embodiment, and inner freedom. Conversation Highlights Include: -Why spiritual practice is not a one-time achievement, but a moment-to-moment way of living that strengthens faith, presence, and connection. -How technology, constant feedback loops, and the addiction to scrolling can interrupt our frequency and deepen the feeling of disconnection. -Michael's reminder to "touch your soul before you scroll," and why beginning the day with spiritual practice can shift the entire atmosphere of your life. -Why information alone does not heal, and how true transformation requires practice, embodiment, and the energy behind the words. -A conversation on protector parts, inner wounds, and how patterns like control, perfectionism, rage, or addiction may be trying to keep us safe. -Gabrielle's four-step practice from Self Help for checking inside, getting curious, creating compassionate connection, and returning to the energy of Self. -Why manifestation cannot bypass healing, and how worthiness, self-love, and inner alignment make it possible to sustain what we are calling into our lives.

**🌱 Inspired by this conversation? Join us this Sunday, September 13 at Agape as Michael, Dr. Shefali, and special guests continue the dialogue on Raising Conscious Children in The Digital Era. Reserve your seat: https://donate.agapelive.com/an-afternoon-with-dr-shefali *** What if the real work of parenting isn't raising perfect children, but allowing our children to awaken the parts of us still waiting to heal? Today, Michael welcomes Dr. Shefali, a New York Times bestselling author, clinical psychologist, and founder of the Conscious Parenting movement, widely known as Oprah's Favorite Parenting Expert. Trained at Columbia University, she integrates Western psychology and Eastern philosophy to help parents and individuals break free from unconscious patterns and live with greater presence, authenticity, and connection. Her newest books, Raising Conscious Daughters and Raising Conscious Sons, offer a timely blueprint for raising emotionally grounded, resilient children in today's anxious world. Note: This episode contains some explicit language. Conversation Highlights include: -Why parents don't need to chase perfection, and how guilt can become another form of self-focus that keeps us from true growth. -How children reveal the unconscious patterns, wounds, and reactions that adults may never see until parenting brings them to the surface. -The difference between raising children through control and raising them through connection, presence, emotional safety, and inner work. -Why today's digital world has created new pressures for children, from social media comparison to online isolation, beauty pressure, gaming, and distorted ideas of masculinity. -How parents still have power in the middle of technological overwhelm by choosing healing, presence, and conscious engagement instead of outsourcing their influence. -Why boys need movement, purpose, physical expression, and healthy initiation into their energy rather than being forced into silence or disconnection. -How girls need space to practice their voice, self-trust, authenticity, and strength before taking that confidence into the wider world. Michael then closes the episode with a guided meditation on beginning again, receiving the blessing already present, and anchoring Heaven on Earth through intention, gratitude, and inner stillness. 🪷 Join us online or in person at Agape on September 13 for Raising Conscious Children in The Digital Era—in-person tickets include a copy of either or both books: https://donate.agapelive.com/an-afternoon-with-dr-shefali Explore Dr. Shefali's current book tour dates in other cities, her courses, podcast, and offerings here: https://www.drshefali.com/ and follow her across social media. ✨ What's your Life Question?

*** 🌱 Join Michael, Dr. Shefali & special guests for a powerful conversation on Raising Conscious Children in the Digital Era—September 13 at Agape! Reserve Your Seat: https://donate.agapelive.com/an-afternoon-with-dr-shefali *** Season 3 begins with a powerful invitation: stop rehearsing old thoughts and start receiving Real inspiration! In this solo episode, Michael explores the difference between "thinkingness" and Real Thinking—the difference between conditioned mental patterns, and inspiration that arises from Sacred Silence. Much of what we call thinking is actually inherited thought, repetitive belief, fear, doubt, and perception moving through awareness. Real thinking, however, is sourced from the Presence that is never an absence. Through teachings on fertile consciousness, soulful artistry, excellence, meditation, and intention without attachment, Michael invites listeners to break free from inner prisons of belief and become available to inspiration, realization, and the unfolding of their True Nature. Highlights Include: -Why much of what people call thinking is actually "thinkingness"—conditioned thought forms, inherited beliefs, doubts, worries, and perceptions moving on repeat. -How prayer, meditation, Life VisioningTM, affirmations, and spiritual practice are not about begging for a blessing, but stepping into the realization of what is already within you. -A powerful teaching on fertile consciousness and how gratitude, love, appreciation, worthiness, joy, and dynamic peace become the inner soil where new possibilities unfold. -The distinction between feeling and emotion, and why a true feeling-tone arises from connection with Source rather than from old thought patterns with energy behind them. -Why every person carries a unique soul signature and cannot reveal their gifts by comparing themselves to someone else's path. -How Real thinking arrives as inspiration, capturing you with an idea, insight, or creative impulse that comes from beyond conditioned mental activity. -A reminder that excellence can be practiced in any circumstance, from ordinary daily tasks to professional life, friendship, service, and contribution. -Why sacred silence is not filler or escape, but a way of touching base with the sacred and becoming available to guidance, wisdom, and unfoldment. -The ocean analogy that helps distinguish between consciousness itself and the temporary content moving through awareness. Next, Michael closes the episode with a guided meditation on sacred silence, intention, awakening to your glorious nature, and learning to witness what passes through awareness. ✨ What's your Life Question?
