Sharon, welcome to the program. 13 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:48,040 Speaker 2: Looking forward to this. 14 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 3: George, thank you. This is so exciting. I'm so happy 15 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 3: to be here. 16 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 2: How did you get involved in the healing powers? 17 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,959 Speaker 3: Well? I think every one of your lists would agree 18 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:09,759 Speaker 3: that mainstream medicine is broken and does not always access 19 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 3: the best well being of patients, And time after time 20 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 3: after time, I would see how what I was doing 21 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 3: wasn't enough, and I just said, Okay, I need to 22 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,959 Speaker 3: learn what the ancient medicine men and women knew, what 23 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 3: all indigenous cultures, what their healers know, and try to 24 00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:36,920 Speaker 3: expand my repertoire. And so I started learning other things 25 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 3: and bring them into my mainstream practice. 26 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,480 Speaker 2: So you started melding in the mystical and the spiritual 27 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:45,560 Speaker 2: with what you do. 28 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 3: Yes, Because first of all, it feels better as a 29 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 3: healthcare giver, it feels better to talk about somebody's soul journey. 30 00:01:56,880 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 3: It feels better to talk about their life and their 31 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 3: vitality and seeing their energy field. And people gravitate to that. 32 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 3: They love that, they love being heard and seen in 33 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:13,080 Speaker 3: some way other than a blood test. 34 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 2: How did the Shamans, the medicine people of those indigenous 35 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 2: tribes and groups, how did they know what they knew? 36 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 3: I think from thousands of years of experiential I think 37 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,399 Speaker 3: what we're learning now, what mainstream medicine I hope will 38 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 3: start to incorporate, is that we are connected in consciousness 39 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 3: and we don't know the physics of that's how it happens. 40 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 3: But when you had the ancient peoples, they dreamed, the 41 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 3: Aborigines in Australia. They dreamed together and they access knowledge 42 00:02:56,120 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 3: that was universal and those kinds of of data. Taking 43 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 3: in that data and corporation is what they used to do. 44 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 3: They were very in tune with nature, with the celestial bodies, 45 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 3: and they were interdependent and in harmony. And I think 46 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 3: they access the data that's still available to us if 47 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 3: we can just get out of our technocratic world. 48 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,840 Speaker 2: Did they have a better handle on mystical things than 49 00:03:29,880 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 2: we do today. 50 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 3: I think they do. Although there are cultures in the 51 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 3: world today, the Hindu Yogis and their mystics in many 52 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 3: indigenous cultures. But I think we've been We've gone down 53 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:53,400 Speaker 3: the path of technology and science, which is beautiful in 54 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 3: its own right, but it ended up shutting off the 55 00:03:56,560 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 3: access to our emotional intelligence, our extrasensory perception, our feeling 56 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:09,880 Speaker 3: of interdependence with nature and the galaxy. So I'd love 57 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:11,840 Speaker 3: to have that kind of come back. 58 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 2: Sharon. When you talk about maximize your healing power, what 59 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 2: kind of healing power are we talking about. 60 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 3: We're talking about the power of each patient, of each 61 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 3: person to impact their health. And the Shamans knew the 62 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:31,560 Speaker 3: ones I studied with in any case in Peru they 63 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,720 Speaker 3: knew that we have an energy body, and that when 64 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 3: you access that field of energy, that consciousness that we 65 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:47,240 Speaker 3: are part of, and you're able to change your thoughts 66 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:52,360 Speaker 3: and bring in new thoughts set intentions that you really 67 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 3: do impact your physiology. 68 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 2: Pretty dramatic. The subtitle of your book, Shamanic Healing tech 69 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,839 Speaker 2: Neiques to Overcome your health challenges? Is this magical? 70 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 3: It might feel magical when you talk about it, but 71 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 3: when people actually do it, it feels normal and right. 72 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:18,600 Speaker 3: If you take somebody on a meditative visualization or journey 73 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,840 Speaker 3: to sit and have a dialogue with their higher self 74 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 3: or some you might say, why don't we sit and 75 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 3: talk with your wise self? The information they get it 76 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:37,239 Speaker 3: feels right and is deeper than what they can get 77 00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,239 Speaker 3: in their day to day literal human mind. 78 00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 2: Is there anything we can't do with our healing powers 79 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 2: once we understand how to get there? 80 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 3: I'm going to say no, that we are unlimited. Although 81 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:58,719 Speaker 3: we haven't come we haven't pulled together pieces yet to 82 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 3: be able to teach about it. We don't understand consciousness fully, 83 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 3: but I do think we're going to find that we 84 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,960 Speaker 3: are way more than we have believed we are. 85 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,480 Speaker 2: What is it about some people, Sharon, who just don't 86 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 2: get sick, They just don't get sick, and other people 87 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 2: come down with all kinds of melodies. 88 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 3: Isn't that amazing how there's some people that are incredible 89 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:30,480 Speaker 3: that way. I have some patients in their nineties and 90 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,840 Speaker 3: several who have gone to one hundred and three, one 91 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 3: hundred and four, and they just keep chugging along. And 92 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 3: I don't have one single answer for it. I do think, 93 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,159 Speaker 3: of course, if your family, if your ancestors were long lived, 94 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,839 Speaker 3: you're probably going to be better. You could be like 95 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 3: the oaky now one's in that who are aged so 96 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 3: beautifully they think it's some diet. I also think it's 97 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:02,120 Speaker 3: a way that we can stay connected to the energies 98 00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 3: of the Earth and the galaxy and maybe and this 99 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,240 Speaker 3: is sort of the frontier of mainstream medicine. It's not 100 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 3: mainstream yet, so, but that ability to connect to the 101 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 3: acashic field, the universal field, find the templates of our 102 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 3: organ systems, of our cellular machinery before it got broken, 103 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:32,720 Speaker 3: and download those and reset our physiology. I think that's 104 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 3: a possibility out there on the horizon. 105 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:38,160 Speaker 2: We're with doctor Sharon Martin. Her website is linked up 106 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 2: at Coast tocoasdam dot com. Her book is called Maximize 107 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 2: Your Healing Power. Does one who is going to be 108 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 2: healed have to believe it, have to have faith in it? 109 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 3: In my experience, yes, so I'll tell you. Do I 110 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 3: have time to tell a short story? Oh? 111 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 2: Absolutely? Okay, you're on for two hours, Sharon. You're not 112 00:07:58,360 --> 00:07:58,960 Speaker 2: going anywhere? 113 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 3: I can, Ah good, I get to occupy the time. 114 00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 3: My favorite and I read all of his books by 115 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 3: the biographer Thomas Means, a Lutheran minister who came to 116 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 3: know and follow Frank Fool's Crow, a Lakota Fiu Indian, powerful, 117 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 3: powerful medicine man. I believe on the pine maybe Rosebud Reservation, 118 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 3: but maybe the the other one. But anyway, he had 119 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 3: his patience, so to speak. People would come to him 120 00:08:39,880 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 3: and he had a tepee and they would come and 121 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:47,079 Speaker 3: they would spend four days with him. And when Thomas 122 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:51,080 Speaker 3: Means was interviewing Frank and said, you know, tell me, 123 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 3: why does it take four days? And he said, what 124 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 3: I get from God or spirit is instant, but it 125 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 3: takes the client four days to sort of get it 126 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 3: in line with that and right, And I think if 127 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 3: I were to say that in our modern day language 128 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 3: that we use, it takes four days. People's vibration has 129 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 3: to shift enough, be open enough to resonate with that 130 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 3: that which is coming in. And so I think, first 131 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 3: of all, our beliefs do affect our biology courtesy of 132 00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:41,200 Speaker 3: a good book by Bruce Lipton, but our beliefs do 133 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 3: change our reality. So if you have somebody who is 134 00:09:45,280 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 3: highly resistant, and I do have a few of those, 135 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 3: I don't think things are going to change. I think 136 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 3: they're stuck in that cage of their beliefs. And sometimes 137 00:09:56,080 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 3: the hardest job is just to get somebody to step 138 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 3: outside of the box, so to speak. And that once 139 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:09,400 Speaker 3: you can do that, once you can see the possibility 140 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:14,319 Speaker 3: of a different outcome, then you've opened yourself to flooding 141 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 3: your energy field and then your physiology with and I'll 142 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 3: use this symbolically with the templates of the new way 143 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 3: you want your body to be. 144 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 2: Are we tapping into spirit workers or helpers on the 145 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:31,959 Speaker 2: other side with saw this. 146 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 3: Yes, absolutely, so I love that. That's for me the 147 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 3: biggest thing I learned in studying shamanism. And I'll share 148 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 3: with you that I came from a dysfunctional family dynamic 149 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 3: and had a lot of anxiety and fear and a 150 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:59,719 Speaker 3: lot of suspicions of strangers, very guarded. The biggest thing 151 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 3: I've learned in shamanism was that there is a whole 152 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:08,840 Speaker 3: world out there in the unseen, and that there are energies. 153 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:13,679 Speaker 3: Sometimes we call them power animals, sometimes we call them angels. 154 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:18,480 Speaker 3: There are energies that we can align with. And when 155 00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 3: you do involve those and those of you who believe 156 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:28,479 Speaker 3: in people living on the other side, the afterlife, your ancestors. 157 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:32,040 Speaker 3: I happen to believe that your ancestors are at work 158 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 3: helping you all the time. So yes, when you tap 159 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:41,559 Speaker 3: into those other beings at many levels, from your ancestors 160 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 3: to your angels, you get access to resources beyond the 161 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:51,320 Speaker 3: physical plane, and then you really have power. 162 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,839 Speaker 2: How important is it to be a believer in God? 163 00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 3: With this, I don't think you have to be believe 164 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 3: in God other than something bigger than ourselves. And if 165 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,960 Speaker 3: you want to believe in nature, in the forces of nature, 166 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:13,199 Speaker 3: in the power of the celestial bodies of the earth itself, 167 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:17,559 Speaker 3: go for it. A lot of the Native An indigenous 168 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 3: didn't necessarily believe the God. We believe in that we 169 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:27,439 Speaker 3: if we're Judeo Christian. But they did believe in the 170 00:12:28,559 --> 00:12:33,320 Speaker 3: spirits of every living thing around them, So for me, 171 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 3: you have to believe in something bigger than ourselves.
