In this video, I discuss ways to deal with your current struggles so that you can feel more happiness in every area of your life. Ironically, this episode was not created to deal with this subject at all.

I created this video for a wonderful group of high school seniors...

This story encouraged me to create my own hypnotic induction, which I was testing on family members and friends ...

Afterlife TV: When a person passes and goes into the spirit world, there’s an unexpected discovery that takes place as they watch over your life. It’s not something I’ve heard anyone discuss, but it’s certainly a pattern I’ve seen repeated in my investigation of life after death over the past 20-plus years.

Past-life regressions are one of the top experiences that give us personal evidence of life after death, because if we lived other lifetimes then we must not die. And if you ever want to get a sense of what it’s like in the spirit world, a life-between-lives regression is the best experience beyond having a near-death experience. Ever wonder who...
