Dr. Radhikesh and I had a great conversation concerning traditional healing, and it’s not traditional in the way you are probably thinking, traditional as Ayurvedic doctors and astrologers have been a tradition in his family for generations. Frankly what we are talking about is far from the tradition it should be, instead of pills, perhaps we should be employing more of this type of treatment. I know from my own experience that yoga is far more then exercise, it has powerful therapeutic value. I think you’ll enjoy our conversation and I’ll report back after my own birth chart reading! Thank you for allowing me to participate in my recovery in this manner today! More about Dr. Radhikesh: Dr. Radhikesh is an initiated disciple of HH Radhanath Swami. He completed his Doctorate of Medicine from Wright State University with a residency in Internal Medicine which he practiced for 20 years. For many generations, his family has been Ayurvedic doctors and astrologers. In 2012, he also began an extensive study of Vedic Astrology. This study enlivened his passion to care for and connect with people on a deeper level. His recent journey has led him to explore the Healy, which is a Microcurrent Frequency Therapy that harmonizes the Bioenergetic Field. This incredible innovation has allowed him to explore healing at a much more subtle and subconscious level. Through ancient wisdom and modern science, Dr. Radhikesh offers innovative insights to support individuals in their growth and healing on physical, mental, and emotional levels. With his knowledge of Bhakti Yoga, Vedic Astrology, and Medicine, he is assisting people in their journey to health and prosperity as a Life Coach through Astrology and as a consultant for bioenergetic healing.

Episode 224 - Radhikesh Das - Vedic Astrology

"Fuck that Game Trail" is the title of this episode, you'll have to listen to find out why. On September 7th 2021; Shane, Travis, and I jumped in the truck and headed out for our week long Colorado backpack hunt. Three segments make up this episode, we recorded one session about a month or so in advance (anticipation), we recorded a piece up on the mountain at the site of Shane's bull (Spoiler), and we did an after action report the Monday after we got home. Episode 191 contains a January, very early, planning session concerning the 2021 hunt, and Episode 181 is my post-trip interview with the 2020 crew "Elkaholics 2020" - the catalyst that convinced me to go this year, no way was I going to miss it. It is impossible to adequately describe the level of Juice flowing during the trip, just as "Pics can't do it justice", words are not enough, but we will make the attempt. Miracles happen here, I am one, Shane and Travis are too, this trips well - As I say "If you are not having a blast in your recovery, it's your own damn fault"!

Episode 223 - F That Game Trail

Cindy and Katherine (Ep. 214) visited the studio today, Cindy's turn at the microphone! I have had the pleasure to witness her transformation from the guarded and skeptical woman she was when she first showed up, to the confident and open free spirit she is today. Once again the 12 Steps freed a soul from the depths of insanity, we tend to question this matter of sanity when new - Step 2 suggests that a power greater than ourselves can restore us to sanity, and we arrive certain that the life we were living is anything resembling insanity. If you've listened to these stories, or any recovery stories, you will quickly recognize the deep insanity of active addiction and alcoholism. Cindy will tell you she has found her tribe, that the connections she has made has impacted her and changed the way she looks at the world, she a fantastic gal, she celebrated 1 year in 2021, the toughest year to get sober in my opinion - and she explains how the impersonal nature of zoom is exactly what she needed to enter the rooms, she may have passed it by had meeting been face to face. Listen as she walks us through her early life, how he first exposures to alcohol happened, how the disease progressed, her bottom - and her road to recovery! Enjoy!

Episode 222 - Cindy N's Story

Army Mark was Told his story on Easter Sunday 2019, since then he has experienced a major motorcycle accident. Here's the miracle, on August 16th 2021, he celebrated 15 years. Today he talks about surviving the crash, recovery from so many injuries that it reads like an autopsy report rather than an injury report, how the fellowship has kept him kicking, and gratitude for his partner for her supernatural support throughout. "We" is the first word in step 1, "we" can't do this alone, and "this" is not limited to abstinence from alcohol and dope, "this" is life. The, if not one of the, biggest miracles I have found in recovery is the friendships I have made, I know it has carried me through some things I could not do alone. Continued prayers for Mark as he walks this next piece of recovery, and Thank You Mark for sharing your story, it's the key we have to help others realize that they can recover from most anything life throws at you.

It's been a while since I've mused, I fell short with my communication on a guest's schedule and found myself sitting alone with the full blown podcasting gear all set up, I was getting ready to fold thing up when it occurred to me that I had a few things to say, so "what the hell, flap your gums, it's your podcast, and I kinda like the noise I make".

Episode 220 - Dan's Musings Sept 2021

Lindsay came to the studio with Cindy (Episode 216), right off the bat I was digging her energy, her straight forwardness, and her humor. She had an obligation and needed to leave before Cindy was done telling her story so I missed that chance to invite her to be a guest, that's easily corrected, and she eagerly agreed when I contacted her via text. Believe it or not, there is some anxiety involved in these invitations, probably the fear of rejection, which I'm certain nobody is immune from. Lindsay's story is amazing, she recently celebrated 12 years, mature sobriety such as her's, brings a perspective that is not available with many of my guests being fairly early in their journey. Just as with my initial impression, Lindsey's rigorous honesty, no nonsense delivery, and deep vulnerability really moved me, and there is something about hearing the female point of view that helps me in ways that my male friends don't bring to the table. Humor is a soft spot for me, and she caught me right off with hers, both of us laughing at these tragic events that come with alcoholism, they aren't really funny, but the insanity of our past is a fact, it's what helps newcomers relate to us, and as the Book says "the dark part is the greatest possession you have - the key to life and happiness for others. With it you can avert death and misery for them." Enjoy Lindsay's story!

Anissa Hudak is Yogini, Tea Drinker, Yankee Fan, Expert Black Friday Shopper Extraordinaire, a mother of two boys and an angel, a rape survivor; that’s what her bio says, but I can tell you she is also an angel herself with a heart for helping others. She is a member of the International Association of Yoga Therapists and holds a C-IAYT with that organization, plus she is a 500 hour Registered Yoga Teacher (500 RYT) She currently focusses on survivors of sexual trauma and facilitates groups through zoom, meaning you may attend no matter where you are located. We had a great chat concerning how yoga is so much more than just holding poses, “Your issues are in your tissues”, our bodies retain stress and yoga will help you release the poison that builds up in our bodies from trauma and other “dis-ease” that life brings. It’s an inside job, your healing will not be found “out there”, it’s inside us, we just need caring souls to help us to find it and extract it, with love.

Episode 217 - Anissa Hudak - Yoga Therapy

I first met Cindy's husband Travis (episode 174) as he came into the Spiritual Underground. We've all heard about the struggles of couples attempting to get sober, together or alone, and I rarely see a success story where the relationship survives - BUT HERE IS ONE! It took a lot of exploring what doesn't work before finding something that does - hence "keep coming back" and "never stop trying". I love both these wonderful souls, first off I sponsor Travis and anything that is good for him is on top of my list to root for, and secondly seeing families reunited warms my heart beyond explanation, I had a front row seat to the power of the 12 Steps in their lives, and now that both have told their stories here on the Spiritual Underground Podcast, so do you. I hope to have them both in soon to talk about what they've learned from this process, so many relationships do not survive recovery, and they have some experience, strength and hope to share with others on how this was successful in their lives.

Episode 216 - Cindy's M's Story

Kim and I came together through a podcast guest / host connection service. Her parents suffered from alcoholism, and she lost her father to the disease when she was a young girl, and while she was home. Later she pursued a career in law enforcement and like many first responders, he soul was exposed to an overload of traumatic circumstances, she rose through the ranks as he spirit began to overflow from the horrible cases in her lap. Alcohol seemed to numb that, as we know, until it quit working. Her story is here, definitely a gripping ordeal that although in recovery, she openly admits that the journey has only begun. Enjoy!

Episode 215 - Kim L's Story

Katherine celebrated 1 year in May, and it's not the first time for her, she has had several "periods of sobriety". It's not uncommon to require several attempts at this recovery thing, very few get it on their first attempt. The lies we tell ourselves, frankly are insane, hence step 2's "return us to sanity". even so, the parasitic nature of this disease hijacks the operating system, and makes it so we can't "differentiate the true from the false" Step 1 is on the table in these cases also, "hoping against hope we are not true alcoholics". Katherine has walked this road treacherously, and has learned from her experience, my hope is that you can learn from her experience also. She's incredibly intelligent, grew up in a fashion that most would find beneficial (not excluding difficulties), but none of the matters, this disease has no care about your IQ, nor your social status, it does not differentiate, it's dangerous and it's deadly - Katherine is a survivor.

Two weeks from the day of this recording, Robert will celebrate ONE YEAR!!! There are few pleasures sweeter than witnessing a sponsee walk another man through the work, to watch the lights come on in that man's eyes, to watch his life transform - "huge emotion rearrangements". Robert joined us at the men's retreat this year and that weekend really helps build connection, he was a huge asset to the event. There is one more thing that struck me about Robert very early on, you'll have to listen the the episode to hear that.

Episode 211 - 2021 DURT Men's Retreat

I met Eric in my early days, late 2014 or early 2015, I frankly don't remember - it was at my "Indiana Home Group Meeting" called "Seekers". You make fast friends with people who's sobriety date is near your's, a bond of some nature is formed, it seems to me, because you are experiencing similar circumstances, 'you are at the same place'. Keep these folks in your life if possible, it will be beneficial. Eric and I reconnected at Clubhouse, what seems to be a million miles away, a couple southern Indiana dudes reconnect - never underestimate the power of participating in your recovery, no telling who you might meet, no telling who you might bump into. The gift of Eric's Story was a result of that, I "get to' know him better, and so do you - Everyone's Story is Valuable! Enjoy!
