Her transformation began with The Living Theater, where trance performances awakened her to the power of energy. Activism with the American Indian Movement at Wounded Knee connected her with medicine people and mystical events, eventually leading her to mentors in metaphysics and remote healing.Beginning in 1990, she taught gang members as a professor before moving on to colleges with at-risk students. Over 15 years, she engaged in ACA 12-step work and inner-child healing, evolving into Internal Family Systems. With more than 12 years in the mystic arts and psychology, Marie now continues to integrate IFS into her spiritual practice.Contact Alice:Website: https://www.mariefeuer.org/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lifepathhealings/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrMarieYucaipaTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@lifepathhealingsChapters:00:00 Introduction and Guest Introduction00:28 Marie Feuer's Journey and Spiritual Awakening01:28 Technical Difficulties and Podcast Dynamics02:45 Exploring Remote Healing and Telepathy08:11 Personal Experiences with Energy Healing13:32 The Role of Psychedelics and Self-Healing14:52 Matrix Energetics and True Self Exploration20:10 Entities, Spirit Guides, and IFS27:10 Concerns About IFS Training Integrity27:37 Therapists and Internal Work28:56 The New Age Industry and Certification Issues30:03 The Unique Approach of IFS30:46 The Role of an IFS Practitioner32:06 Using IFS to Achieve Results34:41 Authenticity and Changing Goals39:18 The True Self and Coaching43:03 The Rise of IFS and Its Impact45:58 Speculations on Human Evolution and IFS51:41 The Importance of Authenticity and Responsibility53:22 Final Thoughts and Wrap-UpLinks and Resources:• The Telepathy Tapes - https://thetelepathytapes.com/• The Field by Lynn McTaggart - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000V507D4• Matrix Energetics - https://www.matrixenergetics.com/• Luis Elizondo - https://luiselizondo-official.com/• True You Podcast Facebook Page - https://www.facebook.com/trueyoupodcast• Would you like to be a guest on our podcast?
