65. Why I decided to do Ayahuasca...again

A horrifying car accident left Melissa Mortimer near death. What happened next is hard to put into words, but in this conversation, she brings us into the profound expansion and homecoming she felt as her body was failing and her choice to return.She is a walking miracle.Melissa is a psychic medium, energy healer, and spiritual mentor. What I love about her story, and so many near-death experiences, is how obvious the miracles are. They’re right there. Impossible to miss. But what about the miracles happening every day, while we’re busy looking somewhere else?I hope hearing Melissa’s story tunes you to the frequency of miracles...that you leave expecting them, notice them in places you once overlooked, and open yourself to receiving more.Connect with Melissa: https://www.melissamortimer.com/"The Woo Report Podcast" explores all the unseen energies of the #universe and maps how this magic helps us grow and live better.Watch episodes on YouTubeInstagram:   https://instagram.com/thewooreportYouTube⁠:     http://youtube.com/@thewooreportpodcastJoin the mailing list: https://thewooreportpodcast.comLaura Scarpati is an Award-Winning filmmaker and producer.  After a life-changing NDE  (Near Death Experience), Laura launched Chelsea Park Films, a boutique production house creating and supporting projects that spread light and encourage healing on all sides of the frame.  By re-framing her trauma as an opportunity, Laura is now using her unique skillset to explore all the unseen energies of the universe and mapping how this magic helps support us all on The Woo Report Podcast.Thank you for subscribing, liking, sharing and rating this podcast!
