Season 1, Episode 110: Kyle Davies – Psychologist, Therapist, Coach & Consultant

Today’s guest is Kyle Davies. Kyle lives and works in Cardiff, Wales. He is a Chartered Psychologist that practiced for 10 years until the late 1990s, when he turned his attention to therapeutic work. With training in counseling and multiple fields, including Ericksonian Psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, and Neuro-Linguistic-Programming (NLP), Kyle began working and innovating in the therapeutic environment focusing on depression and anxiety disorders.

In 2003, Kyle broadened the scope of his work from a cognitive-mind centered approach to encompass a more body-centered approach. He continued to work with depression, anxiety and panic disorder, and also began to specialize in treating physical conditions including Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, Autoimmune conditions, Lyme Disease, and others.

Kyle’s fascination with the energetic interconnectedness of life has driven him to further expand his work to meld the metaphysical with the scientific, and to develop a complete body-mind-spirit model of healing. He has developed cutting edge, transformational modalities that encompass behavioral change, core level belief change, vibrational (energetic) healing with sound and touch, and self-empowerment.

He helps people take an empowered approach to health and vitality, to ‘upgrade’ their life experience so they can live their lives to the fullest and regain their lost energy and health.

Season 1, Episode 107: Guided Meditation #15 with Michael Neeley

In today’s guided meditation with Michael Neeley, you will be treated to conscious poetry from Mary Oliver, Rumi, Derek Walcott and Wendell Berry.

Love after Love by Derek Walcott:

The time will come

When with elation,

you will greet yourself arriving

at your own door in your own mirror,

and each will smile at the other’s welcome,

and say, sit here. Eat.

You will love again the stranger who was your self.

Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart

to itself, to the stranger who has loved you

all your life, whom you have ignored

for another, who knows you by heart.

Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,

the photographs, the desperate notes,

peel your own image from the mirror.

Sit. Feast on your life.

From Wendell Berry’s The Real Work:

It may be that when we no longer know what to do

we have come our real work,

and that when we no longer know which way to go

we have come to our real journey.

The mind that is not baffled is not employed. The impeded stream is the one that sings.”
