Julian Rose, Guest Waking Times The traditional gulf between science and metaphysics is undergoing a dramatic metamorphosis as the discovery of a ‘quantum entanglement’ between particles previously recognised as being miles apart, is further revealed. In an experiment observed by scientists, when one of these particles spins around, its sister particle – although a long way off – also spins around. Responding as though never separated. “Quantum entanglement is the phenomenon that occurs when a duet of particles are generated, interact, or share spatial proximity in such a way that the quantum ..read more

Dylan Charles, Editor Waking Times Recently I had the honor of being a guest on Nightflight with Judith Kwoba for the third time. Judith is such an inspiring woman, living in Germany and watching the craziness in our world from a totally different seat than me. She’s incredibly informed and awake, yet always calm, smiling, and easy going, which I admire greatly. She originally asked me on to discuss self-sabotage, and I’ve come to deepen my understanding of what this means to me. Self-sabotage, or self-limiting behavior, is the result of fight or flight programming repeatedly triggered until o ..read more

Kingsley L. Dennis, Contributor Waking Times Let us begin with a story … Human life is a story. And yet it is not one single story. It is an open book full of rich, amazing, powerful, and sometimes dangerous, stories. Humanity is quite literally living its own 1001 Nights yet across millennia. And just like that book of masterful storytelling, there have been incredible stories that filled the minds, and hearts, of many millions of people throughout the ages. We live upon and within a story each second of our lives. Some of these stories are greater than others – more epic, more powerful, and ..read more

Travis Bradberry, Guest Waking Times “Emotional intelligence is the “something” in each of us that is a bit intangible. It affects how we manage behavior, navigate social complexities, and make personal decisions to achieve positive results.” When emotional intelligence (EQ) first appeared to the masses, it served as the missing link in a peculiar finding: people with average IQs outperform those with the highest IQs 70 per cent of the time. This anomaly threw a massive wrench into the broadly held assumption that IQ was the sole source of success. Decades of research now point to emotional in ..read more

Julian Rose, Contributor Waking Times There are many thousands of groups that have formed themselves around the need to stand against the globalist attack on life on earth. There are thousands more presenting alternative vision/suggestions for a better future. And there are a small number who are doing both; declaring that one must commit to stopping the worst while simultaneously nurturing into life a new template for human and ecological emancipation. It is the latter action which I subscribe to, because it strikes me that we have no choice other than to fight-off the most immediate threats ..read more

Gary Z McGee, Contributor Waking Times “Philosophical thinking that doesn’t do violence to one’s settled mind is no philosophical thinking at all.” ~Rebecca Goldstein Comfort zones are a curious thing. So warm and secure. So safe and reassuring. So satisfying and certain. Beliefs have a similar effect on us. Especially the core beliefs that we take for granted. But beliefs are comfort zones with reinforced invulnerability; or, at least, the illusion of it. Such reinforcements are like prison bars that most of us are not even aware of. We’re so completely indoctrinated, so utterly pre-progr ..read more

Jack Fox-Williams, New Dawn Waking Times When I was in secondary school, a teacher showed me an animated optical illusion in which a dancer appears to be spinning in one direction. I was adamant that the dancer was spinning clockwise, while my teacher insisted it was spinning counterclockwise. She then told me that you could change the direction of the dancer by focusing on the feet. I gazed with meditative fixation, and suddenly, to my amazement, the dancer started spinning counterclockwise! My teacher explained that since there are no visual cues for three-dimensional depth, your mind can de ..read more

Dylan Charles, Editor Waking Times It’s been a hot minute since I’ve given this blog any love or posted much content at all. I decided to take some time off to focus on other things that required my attention, and in the furlough I’ve been watching the predictable yet shocking turn of events in this world. Now, more than ever we are challenged to look at the world with a sense of powerful non-attachment and inner peace in order to have the strength and fortitude to stand in Over the last couple of years I’ve been pursuing personal coaching as a way of using my experience, wisdom, and knowledge ..read more
