  Episode #850

  Bashar Channeler’s Brain Reveals Something Science Can’t Explain With Darryl Anka - #850

  Oct 1, 20261h 11m

  EVEN MORE about this episode! What actually happens inside the brain when someone channels—and who, or what, are they communicating with? Julie Ryan sits down with Darryl Anka, who has spent more than 40 years channeling the entity he calls Bashar, for a fascinating conversation about altered states, consciousness, UFO encounters, spirit guides, belief systems, soul purpose, and the nature of reality itself. Darryl's extraordinary journey began after two close-range UFO sightings in 1973. Years later, he attended a channeling class and began experiencing an intense altered state that eventually developed into his decades-long work with Bashar. But what happens to Darryl while he's channeling? Darryl discusses EEG testing conducted during the making of his documentary First Contact and what he was told about changes in his brain activity while entering the channeling state. Julie shares her own experience having her brain scanned while communicating with Spirit, and together they explore whether channeling may involve measurable changes in consciousness. Then comes an even bigger question: Who are we actually communicating with when we channel? Darryl shares his understanding of Bashar and describes channeling as potentially connecting with information beyond ordinary conscious awareness. Julie and Darryl compare their experiences with spirit guides, soul families, angelic beings, intuition, imagination, and altered states of consciousness. Darryl also explains why he believes everyone experiences forms of channeling when deeply immersed in creativity or doing something they love. The conversation then turns toward one of Bashar's best-known teachings: following your highest excitement. Darryl explains a five-step framework for identifying what excites you, acting on it to the best of your ability, releasing attachment to the outcome, maintaining a constructive state, and examining beliefs that arise along the way. Julie and Darryl explore how beliefs may shape perception and behavior, why people remain stuck in circumstances they consciously say they don't want, and how identifying underlying beliefs can help change recurring patterns. They also venture into provocative questions about physical reality, imagination, soul roles, extraterrestrial intelligence, spiritual guidance, and whether our earthly lives may have a much larger purpose than we realize. And finally, Julie asks her signature question: Why do we incarnate? Darryl's answer brings the entire conversation full circle—from knowing something intellectually to experiencing it through physical life. Whether you believe channeling represents communication with another intelligence, spiritual guidance, or an unusual state of consciousness, this conversation offers a fascinating look at what happens when we explore the boundaries of the mind. Guest Biography: Darryl Anka is an internationally known speaker, author, filmmaker, and channel who has spent more than 40 years exploring metaphysics and consciousness through his work with Bashar Communications. His seminars have inspired more than 20 books published in the U.S. and Japan. Darryl also has an extensive career in film, contributing visual effects, storyboards, sets, and designs to major productions including Star Trek, Iron Man, The Aviator, and Pirates of the Caribbean .

  Episode #849

  What If Those “Coincidences” Are Actually Signs? With Gerry Bowler, PhD - #849

  Sep 28, 20261h 3m

  EVEN MORE about this episode! Have you ever experienced a coincidence so perfectly timed that you wondered if it was really a coincidence at all? Julie Ryan welcomes historian and author Dr. Gerry Bowler back to the show for a fascinating exploration of synchronicity, intuition, collective consciousness, prediction, and whether we may sometimes know things before we consciously understand how. Julie and Gerry examine extraordinary examples of ideas and events appearing independently at nearly the same time. Gerry shares his own experiences of researchers becoming interested in the same obscure centuries-old material and separate authors creating remarkably similar projects without knowing what the other was doing. So where do ideas actually come from? Could some of what we call coincidence be synchronicity ? Can multiple people somehow access similar ideas independently? And could intuition occasionally allow us to recognize patterns before our conscious minds catch up? Julie and Gerry explore theories involving collective consciousness, intuition, creativity, channeling, synchronicity, imagination, and the mysterious relationship between thought and reality . They also discuss examples from popular culture that seem to anticipate later events, why authors sometimes say their characters appear to take over their stories, and whether creative inspiration can feel as though it comes from somewhere beyond the conscious mind. The conversation ventures even deeper into ancient history, pyramids, hidden knowledge, spirituality, religion, prophecy, and the mysteries of human consciousness before arriving at the ultimate question: Why do we incarnate? If you've ever received a sign at exactly the right moment, known something without understanding why, experienced an impossible coincidence, or wondered whether the universe might be communicating with you, this conversation will give you plenty to consider. Guest Biography: Dr. Gerry Bowler, a historian from Saskatoon with degrees from the University of Saskatchewan and a Ph.D. from King’s College London, has spent his career exploring the intersection of religion and popular culture after beginning as a scholar of Medieval and Early-Modern Europe. His wide-ranging work spans studies on The Simpsons , Aristotle and professional wrestling, Wayne Gretzky, and Bloody Mary, though he is best known for his extensive research on the history of Christmas. The author of numerous books—including The World Encyclopedia of Christmas , Santa Claus: A Biography , God and The Simpsons , and Christmas in the Crosshairs —Gerry has also contributed countless articles, encyclopedia entries, op-eds, and edited volumes, with his works translated into multiple languages worldwide. When not writing or teaching, he serves as a Senior Fellow at the Frontier Centre for Public Policy, where he humorously “shakes a fist at modern society and tells it to get off his lawn.” Episode Chapters: (0:00:00) Can We Know Something Before It Happens?

  Episode #848

  Your Body Is Trying to Tell You Something—Are You Listening? With Harmony Slater - #848

  Sep 26, 20261h 8m

  EVEN MORE about this episode! What if your body isn't working against you—but trying to get your attention? Julie Ryan talks with somatic healer and transformational coach Harmony Slater about anxiety, burnout, body image, stored emotional patterns, and why constantly fighting what we feel may actually keep us disconnected from what our bodies are trying to communicate. Harmony shares her own lifelong struggle with body image and perfectionism , even while achieving extraordinary levels of physical discipline through yoga and dance. Eventually, she began to see the very wound she'd spent years trying to overcome as an invitation to understand herself more deeply—and ultimately help others do the same. Julie and Harmony explore the connection between the body, unconscious patterns, emotions, and the nervous system , including Harmony's perspective on how suppressed experiences can show up as physical tension and recurring patterns. They also examine why the nervous system often chooses what's familiar over what's better . If you've ever wondered why you return to the same relationship patterns, fears, behaviors, or self-sabotaging thoughts even after years of personal growth, Harmony offers a fascinating explanation. You'll discover why fear and excitement can produce similar sensations in the body , how the labels we attach to those sensations influence our experience, and why learning to stay present with uncomfortable feelings may change our relationship with them. Julie and Harmony also discuss somatic breathwork, journaling, manifestation, thought patterns, intuition, presence, trauma, nervous-system regulation, and conscious creation —along with practical ways to reconnect with your body's inner wisdom. And the conversation ultimately goes somewhere even deeper: Why are we here? Harmony shares her spiritual perspective that we are expressions of one infinite consciousness experiencing separation, difference, and ultimately a return to love. If you've spent years trying to fix yourself, fight your body, escape uncomfortable emotions, or understand why the same patterns keep returning , this conversation offers another possibility: perhaps the first step isn't fighting harder. Perhaps it's learning to listen. Guest Biography: Harmony Slater is a Certified Mastery Coach, breathwork and pranayama trainer, and one of only twenty women worldwide to hold the highest-level Ashtanga Yoga certification. For over 25 years, she has guided students across 33 countries in yoga, meditation, and energy practices, weaving together neuroscience, spirituality, and somatic healing. As host of the Finding Harmony Podcast and founder of the Lightworker Mastermind, Harmony empowers high-achieving women and spiritual entrepreneurs to regulate their nervous systems, release energetic blocks, and grow soul-aligned businesses with clarity, vitality, and flow.

  What Do We See Before We Die? - #847

  Sep 24, 20261 hour

  EVEN MORE about this episode! Who comes for us when we die—and are deceased loved ones already waiting as we approach the end of life? In this episode of the Ask Julie Ryan Show, Julie explores the spiritual side of dying, end-of-life visions, the 12 Phases of Transition®, and why people nearing death sometimes report seeing loved ones who died before them. When end-of-life doula Terri calls about her Uncle Tom, Julie intuitively perceives him in Phase 7 of the 12 Phases of Transition®, the spiritual framework Julie describes in her book Angelic Attendants: What Happens As We Transition From This Life Into The Next . Their conversation explores what may happen as someone approaches death and the comforting experiences often reported by dying people and their families. Do loved ones come to help us cross? Why do some dying people appear to see or communicate with people who have already died? And could these experiences offer comfort to families facing one of life's most difficult transitions? Julie also connects with Juliana, who is carrying guilt following her mother's death from cancer. Julie shares the impressions she receives about Juliana's mother, discusses connecting with deceased loved ones through dreams, and offers her perspective on why love and connection continue after physical death.

  Episode #846

  Dave Asprey: I Met God - #846

  Sep 21, 20261h 13m

  EVEN MORE about this episode! Dave Asprey spent decades biohacking his body and brain—but one of his most profound experiences had nothing to do with living longer. He says he encountered God. Now he joins Julie Ryan to explore what biohacking taught him about consciousness, trauma, energy, intuition, death, and the nature of reality itself. Dave, the founder of Bulletproof and a pioneer of the modern biohacking movement, explains why he believes longevity and consciousness are deeply connected—and why his own journey took him from being a self-described skeptic to exploring meditation, neurofeedback, altered states, energy work, and spirituality. Dave shares the experience he describes as meeting God at a Joe Dispenza event and explains how it affected his understanding of consciousness. Julie and Dave also tackle one of humanity's biggest questions: What happens when we die? Dave shares his views on death as a change of state, biocentrism, time, space, past lives, and whether consciousness extends beyond the physical body. They also explore the connection between unresolved trauma and the body , including Dave's experiences using forgiveness practices and energy techniques, along with his provocative “Five F's” framework for understanding some of our most primal reactions. Then things get even stranger. Dave recounts experiments involving intention and AI , his experiences with energy work and psychic self-protection, and why he believes intuition can be understood as an altered state of consciousness. You'll also hear how Dave went from a sick, 300-pound skeptic to one of the world's best-known voices in biohacking; why his journey began on a sacred mountain in Tibet; what decades of neurofeedback taught him about the mind; and why optimizing the body may ultimately be about something much bigger than simply living longer. Julie and Dave also discuss ketones, sugar, coffee, meditation, emotional triggers, the mind-body connection, and the possibility that some of what we call fear may originate from ancient biological survival systems operating beneath conscious awareness. Can consciousness be trained? Can trauma become embedded in our physical experience? What actually happens when we die? And what happens when someone obsessed with optimizing the human body begins exploring what might exist beyond it? This conversation goes far beyond biohacking. Guest Biography: Dave Asprey is a longevity expert, four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee and The Bulletproof Diet, and a leading pioneer of the biohacking movement. After transforming his own health by losing more than 100 pounds and improving his cognitive performance, Dave dedicated his career to helping others optimize their health, performance, and longevity, helping popularize innovations including MCT oil and collagen protein along the way. He hosts the top-ranked The Human Upgrade podcast and is the author of the USA Today bestseller Heavily Meditated: The Fast Path to Remove Your Triggers, Dissolve Stress, and Activate Inner Peace . Dave also runs the 40 Years of Zen neurofeedback program, the BEYOND Biohacking Conference, a regenerative agriculture farm, and ventures including Danger Coffee and Upgrade Labs, while investing in innovative health and longevity companies and continuing to develop accessible tools for improving human performance and well-being.
