MTFTPodcast Episode 20: Navigating Life-Altering Change

In episode 19, Jim 1537 and his wife, Meremysic, discuss the topic of intuition, how we recognize it and how we separate an intuitive feeling from our own emotions. This is one of our most frequently asked questions. As each of us begins to open up and work with the intuitive side of our natures, we find ourselves needing to be able to separate the responses of higher mind from our own feelings and emotions.

MTFTPodcast Episode 19: Emotions, Impulse or Intuition -

It’s a Valentine’s Day episode! In episode 18, Jim1537 and his wife, Meremystic, talk about a life filled with love, starting by looking first at the subject through the lens of Valentine’s Day and its traditional tropes, trappings and focus on romantic love.

MTFT Episode 18 - Valentine's Day Episode

In episode 17, Jim1537 and his wife, Meremystic, discuss the tradition of change and New Year’s resolutions from both the secular and the spiritual perspective. While society pressures us to make resolutions and changes solely based on the calendar date, that approach fails to take into account our own individual cycles,  karma and the fact that we may be exactly where we are supposed to be at this moment in our lives.   Read the show notes at the podcast website, MTFTPodcast.com.

MTFT Episode 17 - Celebrating You:

In episode 16, Jim1537 and his wife, Meremystic, discuss the spiritual aspect of connection and belonging.  As spiritual beings, we instinctively understand the need for oneness and connection. This is an aspect of our spirituality that most religions address. But, realizing that sense of connection and belonging while in a physical body AND dealing with our karmic lessons at the same time complicates the issue. In fact, it affects every relationship and every experience we have throughout our physical journey.   Read the show notes at the podcast website, MTFTPodcast.com  

MTFT Episode 16 - Making the Connection:

From a spiritual perspective, we usually see control presented as either something we surrender (such as to the will of God) or as something we harness for our own desires (as in the Law of Attraction). In reality, it is a much more nuanced topic. Join us as we discuss the role this issues plays in our journey of transformation. Read the show notes at MTFTPodcast.com.  

MTFT Episode 15: Our Desire for Control

In episode 14, Jim1537 and his wife, Meremystic, discuss situations and events which, like a curve ball, can throw our lives totally off track.  How do we process those events?  Are they random? Is there a deeper meaning that we don’t understand? Do they happen for a reason? Why didn’t we see these things coming? In this episode:  Asking and processing why Decisions and consequences How other people’s choices and decisions affect us Hidden meanings behind events Past lives and karma The truth about predestination The role of intuition and psychics And much, much, more. Unexpected events can challenge our sense of confidence, identity, our view of the world and sometimes, the actual reason for life’s purpose. Understanding the many forces behind unexpected events provides us with a comprehensive understanding of why things happen in the way they do, our role in the process, as well as the deeper spiritual significance of the various passages we happen to find ourselves in.

MTFT Episode 14: I Didn't See That One Coming

In episode 13, Jim1537 and his wife, Meremystic, discuss expectations about what kinds of circumstances and situations lend themselves to growing spiritually. And, surprisingly, the answers may not be what you think. They also discuss the steps available to help trigger, maximize and facilitate growth on the spiritual journey. In this episode: The unexpected spiritual path The directly spiritual path How relationships lead to growth The lessons involved in difficult circumstances and events Individual lessons and how they manifest in our journey Lessons of patience, tolerance and self esteem Addiction: A Case study and much, much more....     Those who are trying to lead a spiritual life place a great deal of emphasis on how we consciously cultivate our spirituality. Usually, we tend to think in terms of actions that we consider to be directly spiritual, like yoga and mind-body integration, meditation, etc. In reality, that is only one of the ways we further our spiritual growth. By understanding the way that spiritual lessons and growth opportunities manifest in our life on a multitude of levels, we are able to maximize the integration of both our physical and spiritual lives.

MTFT Episode 13: Finding Spiritual Growth in Unexpected Ways

In episode 12, Jim1537 and his wife Meremystic explain the metaphysical meaning behind the concepts wishes, wants and needs. They also discuss the important role desire plays in how we manifest and ultimately, transform our lives. In this episode: Defining the difference between a wish, a want, and a need. Understanding our true desires. Applying these concepts to emotions, relationships and spiritual goals. The effects of confusion. Dark desire versus positive desire. Affirmations versus desire: Which one wins? Aligning our desires with our highest good. And much, much more…. Anyone who has studied the Law of Attraction understands that desire in the cornerstone for manifestation. But for many of us, what we are thinking is often not the same thing as what we are desiring, and therefore, manifesting. By understanding what we are thinking and correctly assessing and working with those thoughts and feelings, we can empower our conscious mind and minimize self-defeating behaviors.  About Jim1537: Jim1537 is an experienced psychic, spiritual medium, teacher and life coach who has provided personal consultations for over thirty years.

In this episode: The human struggle with emotions The tendency to take our emotions too seriously The relationship between emotional intensity and reality The connection between emotions and karma  Viewing our emotions as positive or negative Separating intuition and emotion Understanding our emotional tape loops And much, much, more….

MTFT: Episode 7: Special Books Episode - Pets, Psychics, and Psychic Attack

Practically all religions and spiritual teachings champion the practice of gratitude - and it can't be overstated just how much it works wonders in our lives. As the holidays approach, I thought it would be a great idea to use Thanksgiving, a time when we are already supposed to be thankful as a commenoration, reminder, and motivational tool to not only practice gratitude now, but to learn to make it a daily habit. However, the pressures of hoiday stress, frustration with where we're at with our lives currnetly, as well as not knowing how to make gratitude a part of our routine can make it seem like a daunting task. Even if we have the best of intentions, we may not know what we need to do. In the 6th MTFT Podcast episode, my wife, Meremystic, and I clearly explain and offer many tools that you can use through this holiday season and beyond to make your personal gratitude journey, correctly and effectively. Spiritually and metaphysically speaking, having an attitude of gratitude is one of the most powerful and transformational tools that the divine universe affords each of us.
