His journey is one of resilience, seeking identity, finding love in chaos, and always having hope.

What if you were to learn that something you are so sure about is not true? Throughout history new discoveries have threatened the status quo and those who found them were ostracized or even jailed! The ego defends beliefs fiercely. In this eye-opening episode, alternative medicine doctor Thomas Cowan shares some facts about viruses and contagion that might blow your mind. A questioner of conventionality and master of analogies, Tom makes scientific practices easy to understand and he dispels some long and deeply held ideas. He shares how medical science excludes the spiritual dimension, limiting what we truly know about our biology. We learn how they found the polio virus and delve into the question, “Do sick people make well people sick?” We also discuss the uncomfortable space of ‘not knowing’ as being the magical place where the Divine can inform and guide us to new understanding. Near the end Tom shares about his latest book, Commonsense Child Rearing. This episode will surely challenge you, but if you hang in there and loosen your grip on what you are sure is true, you might awaken to a new reality. Bio : Dr. Thomas Cowan is a well-known alternative medicine doctor, author and speaker, with a common-sense, holistic approach to health and wellness. He has given countless lectures and workshops throughout the U.S. on a variety of subjects in health and medicine and is the author of six books. Recent publications include "The Contagion Myth” co-authored by Sally Fallon Morell, “Cancer and the New Biology of Water” and "Human Heart, Cosmic Heart." Until his recent retirement from active practice, Dr. Cowan had a general-medical practice for 17 years in San Francisco, preceded by 17 years in Peterborough, NH and several years in upstate New York. He was a founding board member of the Weston A. Price Foundation and currently serves as its vice president. Dr. Cowan lives with his wife, Lynda, on rural farmland in Upstate New York. He has three children, one stepson and seven thriving grandchildren. Dr. Cowan's website:  DrTomCowan.com About Dr. Tom's new book : Commonsense Childrearing: Unconventional Wisdom for a Nourished Childhood  Can we raise healthy children in a toxic world? Yes, we can! Modern life, with its conveniences and technologies, has had mixed results. With great gains come also losses. For better or for worse, as certain types of knowledge have increased, others, which were not perhaps knowledge in the modern sense, but rather types of wisdom, which were once innate, have grown faint. A living, contemporary, and conscious approach to raising children, born of both commonsense and love, is both achievable and necessary. As a physician, parent, grandparent, and friend, Dr. Cowan offers hope and guidance for the parents of today’s youngest generation, that they may raise up a cohort of free, healthy, happy, caring human beings.  Link to book: https://www.amazon.com/Commonsense-Childrearing-Unconventional-Nourished-Childhood/dp/1938685571 #AlternativeMedicine #VirusTheory #ContagionMyths #MedicalScience #SpiritualHealth #ChildRearing #PolioVirus #ChallengingBeliefs #AwakeningConsciousness #ScientificDiscovery #QuestionTheStatusQuo #HealthAndWellness #MindBlowingFacts #NotKnowingJourney #EgoAndBeliefs #HolisticHealth #NewUnderstanding #CommonsenseParenting #DivineGuidance

In this eye-opening conversation, we dive into the essence of the true feminine, unfettered by the patriarchal structures we have all been raised in. According to author and educator Dr. Alanna Kaivalya, both men and women are living in distorted roles that do not serve them. Alanna shares her revolutionary insights on the natures of the authentic feminine and masculine, the importance for women to honor their intuition and embrace the wild, untamed feminine, and the four essential keys to a satisfied life. She encourages women to seek satisfaction rather than success and to receive, create, and thrive on their own terms. We also discuss a more empowering definition of the crone/wise woman stage of life and the crucial feminine/masculine roles in parenting. Don't miss this transformative discussion—like, subscribe, and share with the women (and men) in your life! Bio - Alanna Kaivalya, Ph.D. is an author, educator, speaker, and pleasure-seeker. She has written 5 books, developed international training programs, and taught audiences around the world. These are not her greatest achievements, though. After spending more than 20 years studying psychology, the human condition, the nature of the feminine and femininity, eastern spirituality, and earning a doctoral degree in Mythological Studies and Depth Psychology, she set her sights on empowering women through a better understanding of femininity. She believes her greatest legacy is helping women redefine femininity in the modern age, and giving them clear pathways to become fully satisfied women. She does this through her writing, education, and speaking, but also through living The Way of the Satisfied Woman everyday with her choices, actions, and intuitive guidance.  Website : https://www.thesatisfiedwoman.com/ #beyondpatriarchy #truefeminine #satisfaction #FemininePower #DivineFeminine #ReclaimYourPower #MasculineAndFeminine #WomenEmpowerment #SpiritualAwakening #FeminineEnergy #IntuitionMatters #SuccessVsSatisfaction #PersonalGrowthJourney

Henna Maria, a medicine woman, activist, speaker, and teacher, joins us from the Peruvian Amazon to share her incredible spiritual journey. Speaking on the importance of restoring the sacred in our lives, she explores how indigenous wisdom, Natural Law, and conscious activism can help us break free from the "zoo" of modern society and reconnect with our true essence. Henna discusses the fall of consciousness, the captivity of humanity, the link between human and animal rights, and the urgent need for activism that inspires people to walk the path of peace. As the founder of Dawn of Peace, International Police for Freedom, and Save Our Food Initiative, she has dedicated her life to inspiring action that is both compassionate and transformative. This 300th episode of The Spiritual Forum podcast is a call to awaken to the Divine in all life and restore our lost ability to create meaning and knowledge from within.  Bio - Henna Maria was initiated into the art of healing song by indigenous Shipibo masters and specialises in the ceremonial practice of Ayahuasca. Now Henna and her husband Richard run their own healing sanctuary Wistin Origins and are stewards of a beautiful medicine garden in the Peruvian Amazon. Combining her love for spirituality and activism, in 2019 Henna founded Dawn of Peace, a creative community and peace organisation. Her advocacy focuses on the spiritual reality of life, human and animal rights, medical freedom and self-sovereignty. In 2021, Henna co-founded the international Police for Freedom movement – to advocate for natural rights, rehumanise our societies and facilitate respectful collaboration between activists and police. In 2022, Henna sparked up the Save Our Food initiative in response to the fear around food scarcity, environmental crises and agricultural collapse. Her latest endeavour in the spring of 2023 has been to co-found a cultural association Kotiinpaluu, Finnish word for 'homecoming', with the goal of reviving and protecting indigenous Finnish culture and establishing the foundations for a parallel, natural society. #medicalfreedom #healthfreedom #sovereignty #veganactivism #SacredActivism #SpiritualAwakening #RestoreTheSacred #ConsciousLiving #NaturalLaw #AwakenHumanity #HealingTheWorld #FreedomForAll #ReconnectWithNature #LoveInAction

A dynamic discussion with Marzcia Techau, spiritual teacher, healer and author of Your Soul, Your Life - A Guide to Healing and Self-healing. We are all walking around in some sort of wounded state. It varies by person and degree, but our wounds drive our behaviors and relationships, and consequently the world at large. That’s why healing our inner child is possibly the most important work we can do. Guest Marzcia Techau joins us to share her deep and profound knowledge on this subject. She walks us through the various stages of early life – from an embryo in our mother’s womb to our teen years - and the ways we may have disconnected from our souls at each of those stages. Learning how to release these traumas (large or small) makes room for our souls to inhabit our bodies again.  Marzcia believes we can heal ourselves and she offers a hopeful path forward. She also reminds us that the soul is always patiently waiting. Bio - Marzcia Techau (born 1971] is a Master of Science in Biology, Speaker, Author, Spiritual teacher, Clairvoyant Counsellor, Healer, Reiki Master and Somatic Experience Practitioner working with Peter Levine’s Somatic Experience Method®.

Later she worked as a research assistant at a study of energy healing effects on cancer survivors at the University of Southern Denmark. She has worked as a medium and has been taking clients for 23 years. The recent years she has worked as a teacher of healing and clairvoyance, as an author and been giving talks to a broad audience. In her teachings, her talks as well as in her books she emphasises the relationship between natural sciences and the spiritual world by applying new knowledge and scientific research in her dissemination of healing, human development, and spiritual practice.
