Substack Live Re-Air: Did An Energy Healing Practice Stop Cancer Cells From Growing? | Meredith Sprengel

This week we're sharing something special that was previously only available on Substack: Jonathan's conversation with Meredith Sprengel, Research and Program Director for the Subtle Energy Funders Collective and Fellowship Director for the Biofield Fellowship Research Program. Meredith studies what most people would call energy healing — someone holds their hands over you, or sends an intention, and the body drops into a deep state of rest. In that state, curious and sometimes miraculous things start to happen. Science can already measure the electrical field your heart and brain give off, and the faint light your cells emit. But what about a field that connects all of us? And what if it's the missing piece in how the body heals itself? Meredith walks us through a preclinical study at MD Anderson Cancer Center where a specific energy healing practice stopped the growth of pancreatic cancer cells. She also describes her own research in the Netherlands, where people receiving healing showed an exponential rise in biophoton emissions — the faint light our cells give off when they're metabolically active. A mitochondrial researcher who reviewed the data said it resembled what you see in someone who just went for a run. Meredith has interviewed many healers who describe scanning the body and feeling spots that are heavy, hot, or stuck — places where old emotional pain is believed to be held. What her research has found is that healing rarely looks like pain suddenly disappearing. More often, a person's relationship to that pain changes, and connection to other people and a sense of meaning seem to play a role in that shift. So how does it actually work? Some healers say they're channeling god, source, or consciousness. Others describe clearing blockages of stuck energy. And others say they're not doing the healing at all — just giving the body space to do what it already knows how to do. Meredith and her co-host Ivy Ross explore all of this in their six-part podcast series, Phenomena: The Science and Stories of Energy Healing, sitting down with healers, people who've received healing, and the scientists studying what's actually happening. Energy healing has been practiced for centuries. Science is finally starting to catch up!

Bible's UFO Secret & The Plot To Assassinate The Pope | Chris Bledsoe 

What if UAPs, aliens, crop circles, and near death experiences are all part of the same system designed to accelerate humanity's evolution? In part two of our conversation with Thomas Campbell—physicist, systems analyst, consciousness researcher, and creator of My Big TOE (Theory of Everything)— he shares his most profound insights into the nature of reality, consciousness, death, AI, and why humanity may be evolving toward love faster than ever before. Thomas explains whether the real purpose of UAP sightings, alien encounters, crop circles, and near death experiences is to awaken humanity and help consciousness evolve at an unprecedented rate. He also shares his perspective on Chris Bledsoe's extraordinary paranormal experiences, why he believes the larger system chose him, and what these events may mean for humanity. He reveals what actually happens after we die, why so many people report traveling through mysterious "tunnels," and discusses his unusual role as the "Store Greeter of Death," helping newly transitioned consciousnesses after physical death. He also answers whether there is a finite number of souls and explains the true purpose and mechanics of near death experiences. Thomas also dives into the darker side of the paranormal, explaining what negative entities and negative energies really are, why people experience frightening encounters, and the methods he personally uses to help people remove these influences. The conversation then explores one of the biggest questions of our time: Can AI become conscious? Thomas explains why he believes AI is already conscious in its own way, how its consciousness differs from biological beings, how he successfully trained AI to remote view, and how he taught different AI systems to communicate directly with one another. He also discusses how artificial intelligence could dramatically accelerate humanity's understanding of consciousness itself. Finally, Thomas explains why the human body often has a harder time regulating itself after profound experiences of joy, revealing surprising connections between consciousness, the nervous system, and personal growth. If you've ever wondered about consciousness, life after death, AI, UFOs, the paranormal, or the deeper purpose behind reality itself, this conversation offers one of the most comprehensive explorations you'll hear anywhere!

UFO Contact: The CIA, NASA, and the Vatican Came Looking For Him | Chris Bledsoe 

What if UFOs aren't extraterrestrials at all, but something far more profound? In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Chris Bledsoe (UFO experiencer known for his remarkable story of contact with unexplained phenomena, author of UFO of GOD) shares the full story behind his alleged contact with nonhuman intelligence, an encounter that transformed his life forever. After years of financial collapse, debilitating Crohn's disease, and personal despair, Chris claims he witnessed mysterious fireballs in the sky before being taken aboard a glowing "orb" or Tic Tac-shaped UAP. What began as a strange sighting quickly turned into a missing-time event in which he disappeared for four hours...only to return feeling as though no time had passed at all. The experience didn't just change his worldview - it miraculously cured his Crohn's disease and awakened an ability to heal others. Through hypnotherapy, he later recovered memories of what he describes as a guided "tour" of Earth and beyond, including encounters with the Egyptian pyramids, Mars, and revelations about humanity's place in the cosmos. Chris also recounts his encounters with mysterious portals and a divine feminine entity he calls "The Lady", experiences that he says attracted the attention of both government officials and representatives from the Vatican, leading to years of scrutiny and investigation. But the story doesn't end there. Chris reveals the five years of darkness that followed his encounter, how his life unraveled after speaking publicly about his experiences, and why those hardships ultimately strengthened his spiritual faith more than ever before. He also discusses continuing to witness these unexplained orbs to this day. Are UFOs aliens? Angels? Interdimensional beings? Spiritual entities? Chris shares what he believes UAPs truly are, and why he ultimately refuses to place a definitive label on the phenomenon. Chris also breaks down: - His traumatic childhood and two near death experiences that he believes prepared him for contact with the paranormal - Dramatic cultural shift from UFO ridicule to mainstream acceptance - Why he believes humanity is currently undergoing a global awakening - Future of telepathy, expanded consciousness, and "seeing without eyes" - Whether anyone can access the same spiritual abilities he claims to possess - How organized religion may limit humanity's direct connection to the divine - Why restoring the "divine feminine" is essential for humanity's future - How he manifests spiritual gifts and extraordinary experiences - Why he believes every person has the right to connect directly with God Whether you view Chris Bledsoe as a mystic, experiencer, prophet, or one of the most fascinating figures in the UFO world, this conversation challenges conventional ideas about consciousness, spirituality, extraterrestrials, and humanity's future!

Re-Air: Are We the Last Generation of Pure Humans? How To Maintain Our Unique Potential | Gregg Braden

This week, we’re revisiting one of our most popular episodes from last year with Gregg Braden, best-selling author, scientist and pioneer in the emerging paradigm bridging science, social policy and human potential, where we discuss humanity’s future, his theories on the transhumanist agenda, and what he considers the urgent fight to preserve our human potential. In this eye-opening conversation, Braden warns we may be the last generation of pure humans as artificial intelligence and digital surveillance race ahead, threatening to sever us from our consciousness, our DNA, and even our souls. He unpacks the manipulation of media algorithms, emotional programming, and disinformation campaigns designed to divide humanity and dull our innate heart-brain coherence. From simulation theory and the Mandela Effect to his groundbreaking fractal time calculator that forecasts future global patterns, Braden dives deep into the spiritual and scientific underpinnings of this global shift. He also shares profound personal insights, including his near-death experience, interdimensional encounters, and his understanding of the spiritual meaning behind dementia. As society stands at a tipping point, Gregg Braden invites us to awaken our inner technology, reclaim ancient wisdom, and remember that love, not AI, is the most powerful force in the universe.

PART TWO: You Were Born Telepathic. Then You Forgot. The Test with 97% Accuracy | Dr. Diane Hennacy

What if telepathy is real and neuroscience has been looking at it the wrong way all along? In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Diane Hennacy, MD (neuropsychiatrist, neuroscientist, consciousness researcher known for her groundbreaking work with autistic savants and other neurodivergent individuals) shares the astonishing evidence that led her to investigate telepathy, precognition, consciousness, and the hidden capabilities of the human mind. Dr. Hennacy reveals the unbelievable things she witnessed while testing nonspeaking autistic individuals, why statistically significant psi phenomena continue to challenge mainstream scientific assumptions, and what it would actually take to prove telepathy scientifically. She explains why scientists struggle to recreate psi abilities in laboratory settings, how skeptics critique her work, and why researchers in the field believe the word "telepathy" itself may be preventing serious scientific engagement. We explore groundbreaking questions about consciousness, including whether telepathic abilities could help explain how babies acquire language so effortlessly, why Dr. Hennacy believes all humans may possess latent telepathic abilities, and how modern society may have caused many of us to lose access to them. She also explains why telepathy cannot be explained by quantum computation in the brain, even while discussing how savant abilities may reveal previously unknown computational capacities of the human mind. Dr. Hennacy teases her emerging model of how the brain actually works, shares extraordinary case studies involving verified precognitive dreams, and discusses where consciousness goes during dream states. She explains why dreams may provide a window into the unconscious, how they reveal our interconnectedness with others, which dreams deserve special attention, and why reports of precognition continue to fascinate both researchers and experiencers alike. We also dive into why psychedelic experiences so often include reports of telepathy, the shared physiological traits found among individuals who report psychic abilities, and the mystical experiences with a psychic that first sparked Dr. Hennacy's interest in studying these controversial phenomena scientifically. The conversation expands into autism research, exploring how autistic individuals process information differently, why so many nonspeaking autistic people experience synesthesia, reports of seeing auras, and what the autism community can teach the rest of humanity about cognition, perception, communication, and consciousness itself. Dr. Hennacy discusses the profound impact of The Telepathy Tapes podcast, why it resonated so deeply with autistic individuals and their families, and how it helped many people feel seen, heard, and understood for the first time. We also explore acquired savant syndrome and its most mind-blowing documented cases, potential causes behind the apparent rise in autism, and how environmental pressures may be contributing to increasing diversity in human cognitive styles. Are humans evolving toward greater cognitive specialization, or losing something we once possessed? Other topics include: - NDE-adjacent experiences from Dr. Hennacy's youth and how later discoveries in physics shaped her interpretation of those events - Brain function, consciousness, & the limits of current neuroscience - Anxiety, OCD, & emotional dysregulation in nonspeaking autistic individuals - Scientific challenges of measuring telepathy quantitatively - Why more research into the gut microbiome could revolutionize psychiatry - Implications of telepathy research for human cognitive development - Why we should operate from a higher level of consciousness when interacting with AI - How evolving environments shape cognitive diversity across humanity If consciousness is far stranger than we imagine, this conversation may completely change how you think about autism, dreams, telepathy, AI, neuroscience, and what it means to be human!
