Why Loss Lives in Your Body (and How to Release It) | Kurtis Lee Thomas | EP 491
We tend to think of grief as something we feel — a heaviness in the heart, a fog in the mind. But what if grief is also something we store, physically, in the body? And what if the breath you take without thinking could be the very thing that sets it free? In this episode, I talk with Kurtis Lee Thomas — the "Man from the Stars" — about a path to healing that didn't begin in a wellness studio, but in suffering. A five-year stomach condition no doctor could diagnose. The loss of his brother to...

An Ancient Technique For Helping Grief with Dr. Irene Blinston | EP 488
What if the people you love aren't as far away as they seem? For more than two decades, Dr. Irene Blinston has been quietly studying something most psychologists won't touch — an ancient Greek practice called the psychomanteum.

The research is staggering: 92% of participants experienced a measurable reduction in grief symptoms, and the relief held for months afterward. In this conv...
