A considerable part of my self-development and transformation has had to do with discovering more about my spirituality. I always believe for one to be completely healthy, all the areas of the body: the mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual must all be in sync. On today's episode, I am joined by Guy Sohm, someone who's been enlightened at the early age of five. When he was younger, his mother would always say, "you can help people heal by channeling energy." Guy started doing hands-on healing, then candle meditations, and learning about chakras. An interesting fact about Guy is he lives in a treehouse made from local and recycled materials. It has six levels and every level represents a chakra. He is a tantric teacher, artist, DJ, blogger, and former festival promoter focused on personal growth and awakening.
