Science and Spirituality

Your words matter. Language literally has the power to shape your reality. This is because words carry vibration and energy that your body picks up on. It contains information about how you feel about yourself and the world. In this episode, we discuss the following 6 examples of language: 1. I feel vs. I am 2. Describing yourself in parts - Saying "A part of me feels afraid" instead of "I am afraid" to honor that there is a part of you that wants to move forward 3. Avoiding the words "Should, Always, and Never" 4. Using the phrase "Up until now" to alert your subconscious that things are going to be different 5. Using "I get to" rather than "I have to" to honor the ability you have to choose as a human being 6. Why you "discover" your purpose instead of "finding" it. After listening to this episode, you will have a new appreciation for the subtle energy and vibration of language and know how to use it to your advantage.

We are BACK from our holiday break with a powerful episode discussing the power of presence, being present, and connecting deeply with the present moment. What we discuss: 1. What is presence and why it's so important. 2. How humans tend to either think of the past or project into the future and in doing so lose connection with the present moment. 3. How the present moment is actually the only time we can ever enact change in our lives. 4. How connecting to the present moment has been talked about in nearly every sphere of the Science and Spiritual world - from western medical mental health and cognitive behavioral therapy to eastern traditions and meditation and mindfulness. 5. Simple tools for you to deepen your connection to the present moment. We hope you enjoy! Finally, Soul Builder LIVE is right around the corner!

We have all heard the sayings right? "Always Follow your heart." "Come from the Heart." "Put your heart into it!" "The heart knows what it wants." Have you ever taken a step back and really thought about what these messages, which resonate deeply with us across generations and cultures, are actually trying to convey? In this episode, Chris dives into the Science of the Heart and how our brains might not be as in control as we thought. New science, combined with old science that has been largely ignored for years, has combined to give us a new model of how the Heart and Brain communicate.  After listening to this episode, the above statements about the heart will have a new found meaning for you. Let's dive in.  Finally, Soul Builder LIVE is right around the corner!

In this episode we dive deep into the Power of Language. In a nutshell, our words are powerful. They carry a specific energetic vibration to them that influences everything from our emotions to our physiology to our beliefs about ourselves. When we realize the power our words actually have, we start to get intentional about what we think and say. Finally, Soul Builder LIVE is right around the corner!

Have you ever heard anyone say, “You are (a) God”? Maybe that resonated, maybe it didn’t, but what if it’s both true and not true?  In this solo episode, I (Kevin) share my beliefs about God and what "He" is and isn’t. This is a deep topic and I did my best to summarize the large concepts that many people can get confused by. I believe it’s essential to connect with this Infinite Power within and so I hope this sheds light on the whole subject, so you can walk away with a deeper belief in what’s true for YOU!  In my experience, the answer to the question above is… it’s both and in this episode I share why! P.S. I refer to Ariana Grande's song "God is a woman" and totally messed up in saying it was Beyoncé 😂 P.P.S. The other song by Daniel Nahmod is called One Power <3  Finally, Soul Builder LIVE is right around the corner!

Many of us have heard of crystals but do you know what crystal healing is and how it can truly help you on your spiritual journey?  Today we have the special honor of talking with Beatriz Singer, a crystal healer and author with 20+ years of experience (you can see her bio below). We dive really deep into the power of crystal healing and how it works, all while hearing Beatriz’s amazing spiritual journey! In this episode you will learn what crystal healing is through the following: Crystal resonance - Beatriz explains how our frequency and that of the other object syncs together Experiencing crystal resonance - how crystals raise our frequencies The best way to work with crystals - you do this through tuning into your energy The science behind crystal healing - crystals work much like our modern electronic devices How to cleanse your crystals - so you can keep their energy balanced We were blown away from what we learned from Beatriz and we are excited to share this with you! To download Beatriz's guided crystal energy meditation, click here. And if you'd like to get her book, The Crystal Blueprint, click here. Beatriz Singer Bio Beatriz was initiated into the art of crystal healing by Hindu masters in India. She has also studied directly with South American shamans, Tibetan Buddhist monks, Indian gurus, and other luminaries. As a university-trained journalist, Beatriz also has the ability—and inclination—to observe, question, and research. Along with the sensitivity, awareness, and intuition of a healer, she has the information-gathering skills and mind-set of a journalist. She has gathered information from quantum physicists, neuroscientists, psychologists, geologists, archaeologists, historians, researchers, and others who use quartz crystals as key elements in technology and healing. She integrates ancient wisdom and science about the mind, body and crystals from different schools of thought. Beatriz draws on all this knowledge to connect science and ancient wisdom with crystal healing. To connect the dots and demystify a subject that has often been more associated with placebos than with crystals’ unique properties and prove their real power. Beatriz is a living example of what crystals can do when you work with them as a potent tool for healing. Not only has she healed her cancer, healed her relationships, and manifested her dream life, but she also won first prize in the prestigious Hay House Writer’s Workshop Contest in 2017 with The Crystal Blueprint. Happy listening and crystal healing :)

Awareness is defined as the knowledge or perception of a situation or fact.  In this simple definition lies the key to all transformation and change. How? Simply because of this: In order to change something, a habit, an attitude, a situation, etc, you need to CHOOSE differently. In order to CHOOSE differently, you need to be aware of the current choice you are making and aware of the ability you have to change that choice. In the absence of awareness of our thoughts, emotions, habits, patterns, and actions, we will continue to be dominated by the rhythm and cadence of our life as if on autopilot. In this episode, Chris walks you through how to get under the hood of your perceptions and shine the light of awareness on them so you can make better choices.  Awareness breeds Choice. The more awareness you have in your life, the more opportunity you have to break out of the patterns, and choose differently. 

On today’s episode we talk about how to transmute the energy within yourself to become the higher version of you that you see in your dreams and in your visions. We have to change within before we can see results without. We dive into the science and spirituality of this and the importance of doing the work to change. In this episode we expand on: Why it’s necessary to change our internal world before we see change in our outer world - so you can stop allowing your environment to dictate who you are and how you feel. How to change your inner world - through visualization and creating a vision / framework of who you’d love to be regardless of external circumstance! How to create your own reality - through unplugging and disconnecting from your 5 senses so you can start having original thinking in the absence of outside stimulus.  Micro vs. Macro on your reality - we expand on responding to the same situations differently and provide you with examples of how this changes your reality. The science behind this - learn how you literally turn into a different person, emotionally and physiologically, when applying this work!
