Open Loops with Greg Bornstein: Conversations That Bend

SHAMANISM Put on your 7D glasses for this episode. You'll need 'em.  (Just take two pairs of IMAX glasses and wear them on top of each other, and then put those on top of your regular prescription lenses, and mathematically that should work, right?) Anyways... Greg brings on a fantastic guest, and they're talking lucid dreams and astral projections and slipping in between realities by accident!  And it all starts with nudist parents?  Yes and YES! Greg welcomes Tjasa Ferme, a New York City-based Shaman, Actress. and the Founder/Artistic Director of Transforma Theatre Inc.  It gets weird. But that's by design.  This might be a podcast episode.  You also might just be dreaming... --------------------------- Tjasa's links:  The Art of Lucid Dreaming on October 8th: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/art-of-lucid-dreaming-intro-induction-tickets-123268987861 Facebook: @shamanwomannyc Instagram: @femrolemodel ------------------------- If you enjoy this podcast, please go to ratethispodcast.com/openloops and leave a review!  Let Greg know how you like the show.

NLP and HYPNOSIS  WARNING: DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS EPISODE WHILE DRIVING OR OPERATING HEAVY MACHINERY.  If you've ever wanted to experience hypnosis, this is THE episode to listen to.  This entire hour is designed to transform all your lives at the unconscious level.  It won't sound like hypnosis, on the surface. But that's just a testament to how skilled our guest (and Master Looper) Jocelyn Bellows is.  Greg tried to escape her trancing ways multiple times but he couldn't do it.  He really did try.  Jocelyn Bellows is the host of Leap podcast and is known for her work as the Break Up to Wake Up Coach.  Jocelyn leads Greg (and all of you) through an awakening process that involves proving that the Force from Star Wars is real, that your heart emotes 6 ft beyond your physical body, that your core values are the same as the things you admire about your heroes, and that you're probably not to blame for anything bad that happened between ages 1-7.  So everything after 7---that's on you, you idiot.  Just kidding.  Also:  -Why is self-care NOT selfish?  -How long does it take to get over your ex-husband once you wake up? -How can changing your physiology make you more attractive? At one point, Jocelyn delivers a baby that Greg didn't even realize he was pregnant with...  Talk about a wakeup call!  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jocelyn's Links:  Work with Jocelyn: https://www.facebook.com/jocelyn.bellows24 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/whatsyourleap Instagram: @whatsyourleap Podcast: Leap ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ratethispodcast.com/openloops Let Greg know how you like the show.

PSYCHIC MEDIUMSHIP  Yeah, yeah, Open Loops brought you a psychic, and of course, we ask about the election... But that aside: Dean McMurray, the world-renowned Military Medium, joins Greg this episode to discuss if we should hand psychics military-grade weaponry, but also if we should spend time during Basic Training teaching soldiers how to align their chakras. And of course, your host Greg gets scared when psychics come on the show. Is Greg going to turn out okay, Dean? Is he? That's all he wants to know on this episode, and he's right to ask. Because Dean senses those things. Dean McMurray is clairvoyant, clairsentient, claircognizant, clairgustant, and even experiences clairtangency. He has mediumship abilities, he can remote view, he's dowsed, he's found missing people, he does intuitive real estate consulting, and he has communicated with extraterrestrial entities. And he also happens to be a 24 year Army Veteran. When military rigidity meets midnight hauntings, you know you're in for a treat. Also, Project Stargate. Secret Military Undercover Ops. UFOS. Exorcisms. All in this episode. Dean McMurray serves it up. And it definitely tastes better than the army food they show in the movies. .....But like, is Greg gonna be ok? -------------------------- Dean's Links: Dean McMurray, Military Medium Official Website: www.deanmcmurray.com The Red, White and You Show: https://www.facebook.com/theredwhiteandyoushow/ --------------------------- If you enjoy Open Loops, please subscribe, rate, and review this podcast at www.ratethispodcast.com/openloops Episode analytics Let Greg know how you like the show.

LAW OF ATTRACTION  Greg's not into sports, but he knows when he's lost a game.   Casey Edward, Life Coach, Podcaster, Entrepreneur, Meditation Junkie, Avid Adventurer, and Manifestor-Extraordinaire joins Greg in a discussion where despite his attempt to connect with her "on the level"...he just doesn't.   One strike. He's out.   Among other things:   -Casey gives Greg's subconscious "girl advice."  -Social media as a tool for spiritual teaching, as well as covertly influencing your exes  -The Secret of The Secret that's different than what everyone else is saying about The Secret  Casey brings it.

She taught Greg about existentialism before he even knew he was having an "existential crisis."  Ricki directed Greg in plays and musicals in high school.  He was her Mayor of Who in Seussical, her Oscar Madison in The Odd Couple, and when she directed Les Mis Greg's Junior year, Greg played the Master of the House.  Also Greg once wrote a musical number to Catcher in the Rye because of her class. She gave Greg an A.  J.D. Salinger woulda been piiiiiiiissed..... Ricki Lombardo was a legendary English teacher and theatre director at Dover-Sherborn High School in Dover, Massachusetts for 37 years and  she happens to be one of the most naturally gifted communicators and storytellers anyone in that community (parents and students) ever had the chance to encounter.  She changed lives.  And continues to with all her life lessons. She taught to the heart before the mind. And it shows in this interview.  "Seize the day."  Listen in and she might transform your life, too.  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Shows are dropping like Kingda Ka, but there's always room for a new attraction.  We love making this show for you.

MANIFESTATION  Around ten years ago, Samantha Colicchio used the Law of Attraction to manifest an iPod out of thin air in a New York City taxicab.  Now she's not sure if there's an evil cabal in charge of enslaving the masses or if meditation is the stuff of Satan.  One thing's for sure: she's one of Greg's best friends from college. And if there's anything these two aspire to have, beyond entertaining these very deep and tangential conversations for rest of their friendship, it's to have the wisdom of an old bearded mystic in an art gallery on a completely free 10 day trip to Israel.  They love those guys.  Find out:  How does the ego relate to success with The Law of Attraction?  How does Samantha know that there is a higher power?  Is Judaism designed for people with OCD?  Put your listening ears in a chair and hold on tight.  It's Hava Nagila time.  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -Shows are dropping like Kingda Ka, but there's always room for a new attraction.  We love making this show for you.

ROCK N’ ROLL Podcast Paul is his name. And making Greg feel guilty about the temptations of living the rockstar lifestyle is DEFINITELY his game.  He plays it well.  Paul was a local celebrity in a rock band. Paul told Greg the conversation could be about anything, as Paul studies religious philosophy.  What do we cover?  Drugs, sex, self-destruction.  Welcome to Church.  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -Shows are dropping like Kingda Ka, but there's always room for a new attraction.  We love making this show for you.

Renowned therapist and NLP practitioner Andrew T. Austin squares off in a Facebook battle against NLP Academy head Michael Carroll. The subject: race. What happens when two prominent voices in the hypnosis community get into a public feud on social media? And they’re both white men. Yeah, this’ll be something alright...  ----------------- Shows are dropping like Kingda Ka, but there's always room for a new attraction.  We love making this show for you.

CONSPIRACY Swapcast with co-hosts Gary Cocciolillo of Everything Imaginable Podcast and Animal Communicator/Biofield Therapist Anjii Bryers. They bring on guest Pepper Goins, the number one Mississippian funnyman, father, husband, and disease-ridden host of the the hit show, "Rushmore Podcast."  Pepper tells us who's behind the pandemic, Anjii thinks these American men (mostly her co-hosts) are idiots, and Greg's love life discussion turns into a conversation about the female Mind Control victim he met once waiting for the PATH train....and it just gets weirder.
