I first read Neville Goddard in college way back when!!

But he didn't really become a spiritual/metaphysical mentor of mine until about 20 years later!

I was always intrigued by his mysterious mentor and friend, referred to only as Abdullah.

When I was looking for recommended books on my Amazon account, I serendipitously found Rebekah Jane Carter and her book, You Are In Barbados: Book One of the Abdullah Series and KNEW I had to buy it, read it, and have her on the Podcast to discuss the book!!

And so I did...and here she is...one of my longest interviews for you to enjoy and relish.

Please consider supporting the positive vibes of my Podcast by subscribing to Hughes from the Heart today for just a dollar a month! You can try the 7 Day FREE Trial first and get access to thousands of past episodes and content!

I offer content on #health and #wellness, #mentalhealth, #mindfulness, #mindset, #minimalism, #meditation, #zen, #theLawofAttraction, and wonderful #guests talking about these subjects.

There's even frequent #Paranormal episodes as well!

Thanks for your support. I hope you enjoy the episode and interview with author Rebekah Jane Carter!

Pick up the book today. You will love it--even if you are not familiar with Neville Goddard!!

The government freaked out in the early days of psychedelic research and when they saw what they did to people--helping them break down borders and boundaries and become better, kinder, gentler human beings--they outright banned them.

Not only were they banned, they were labeled as Schedule 1 drugs!! These are described as drugs with no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse!! NEITHER IS TRUE!!

These were--and REMAIN--LIES.

51% of Americans hide out in the bathroom so they can have a few moments of alone time.

This is a sad indicator of where we area as a culture!

I recently became acquainted with our guest for this Hughes From The Hear episode, Jeff Hines.

He is a friend of a friend and is in search for a liver transplant...hopefully from a LIVE liver transplant donor.

I feel quite ignorant because until I encountered Jeff, I had no idea there was even such a thing. Or that the liver regenerates in a very short period of time.

Some fascinating information for us all in this very important Podcast episode, as well as how you can assist Jeff directly.

Even if you can't help--and that is totally understandable--perhaps you can share this episode and help us get his story and information out to the world as best as you can.

Thanks for the awareness, the spreading of the information, and for your support of the good vibes and positive energy of Hughes From The Heart.

You can contact Jeff directly through his email: igreenthumbs@gmail.com.

The University of Washington website link he references can be found here.

I'm BAAAAAAACK.

Sorry for the long absence!

And I stand corrected...in the Podcast I say we last chatted at the end of June.

My last episode was actually at the end of MAY!! I was gone longer than I even imagined. And I apologize for that.

This episode is a re-introduction of sorts with as good of an explanation as I could offer you.

Please support the Premium Content today if you are so inclined.

Anyone who donates $25 or more to the Podcast via the SUPPORT link on my website or through my Venmo (Radiospencer) will get a 30 minute virtual breakfast, lunch, or dinner with me...chatting over a coffee, beer, or glass of wine maybe. Just a nice little hangout, just the two of us. Chatting about life.

Much love to all of you.

I love this!!

I learned about "carpe diem" as many of us did...from the Robin Williams life changing movie "Dead Poets Society" in 1989. Those who studied Latin in school probably learned about it well before that! But that movie helped make the term mainstream.

A new survey shows the majority of Americans choose this as their motto/mantra for 2021.

The pandemic has made most of us re-evaluate what is important to us and appreciate our lives more.

This is an interview for the OPEN MINDED and FREE THINKERS out there!!

Dr. Carver talks with us about her first book which is back in print at this time, Who The Hell Told You That? An Eviction Notice for Indoctrinated Thoughts.This book will lead many to question everything they've been taught from a young age.

Why do we believe what we believe? Who put those beliefs there? Who created these paradigms and for what reasons and do they still hold value for us today?

If the answer is that they do NOT serve us anymore or hold value for us in our lives, Dr. Carver encourages us to break away from them and forge ahead with our OWN true beliefs and paradigms that serve us well.

Please look for her on social media! And enjoy her website as well!

We need to stop our pathological urge to doomscroll and focus on the negative!

What we focus on expands...where attention goes, energy flows.

It is NOT a coincidence that those who focus on illness are usually always sick.

It is NOT a coinidence that those who focus on the Boogey Man usually find him around every corner.

And it is NOT a coincidence that successful people focus on success and happy people focus on happiness.

PLEASE resist and remove all the doomscrolling.

No one is talking about this, so I will--all the panic and hysteria over Coronavirus is NOT HELPING MATTERS AT ALL.

It is good to be vigilant and careful and responsible, absolutely true!!

But it becomes almost worse than the illness itself when one fixates on it, dwells on it, fears it, is constantly anxious over it...

And we are IN CONTROL of these thoughts because we are the ones THINKING THEM , right?

I thoroughly enjoyed my time with Karol Hoeffner, a Hollywood screenwriter and novelist.

We discuss her newest novel Knee Deep as well as her craft as a screenwriter and how important mindfulness is to her craft.

From her website, www.karolhoeffner.com:

She has written original feature scripts for Paramount, Tri-Star, and Disney. Among her produced credits are four Danielle Steel adaptations including "Kaleidoscope" and the mini-series "Family Album"; made-for-television true story adaptations "Scorned and Swindled", "The Making of a Hollywood Madam" and "Miss America Behind the Crown"; the original made-for-TV movies" Voices from Within," "All You’ve Got", mini-series "Harem" and Mary Kate And Ashley’s "Winning London".

Hoeffner is also the author of two Young Adult novels, All You’ve Got, based on the screenplay for the MTV premiere movie and Surf Ed. Her third YA novel, Knee Deep, will be published in Fall 2020, and she is currently developing a limited series of historical drama for streaming.

Hoeffner is the Chair of Screenwriting at Loyola Marymount University, a top ten film school in Los Angeles.

Hoeffner is a consultant for the Television Credits Committee for the Writer’s Guild of America West. She was the recipient of the Danny Arnold National Scholarship Award for Screenwriting and a Sundance Screenwriting Lab Finalist.

I was an 18-year-old kid heading to the Bay Bridge World Series on October 17, 1989. 

The man who would become my cousin one day, Gerry Shannon, was a San Francisco firefighter of 19 years on that fateful day. 

He is a very modest man and as many first responders claim, he was just doing his job.

But on that tragic day in San Francisco history, he saved a woman's life. 

This is part of that story. Please share the Podcast episode with everyone you know. 

Gerry was actually played by actor Scott Valentine in the movie that was made based on Gerry's heroism, AFTERSHOCK.

When talking about smiling, I think of the Jimmy Durante version of the song "Smile" and Louis Armstrong's version of "When You're Smiling"!

We know that we feel better when we smile than when we frown or scowl.

But what if even a FAKE smile made us feel better? Then we could instantly fake it til we could make it...but feel good right away!

Well, a new study shows just that...that smiling whether you're truly feeling it or not can bring about the same feelings as if the smile were totally genuine and heartfelt.

Change is a part of daily life. There is no escaping it.

We can fight it but it usually wins in the end. Trying to stop change is like trying to stop grass from growing.

This podcast episode is about embracing change...and ultimately learning how to become a change junkie!

Many of you will recognize Dustin Pari from the Ghost Hunters and Ghost Hunters International television franchises.

But he is much more than a paranormal investigator.

Dustin tours the country with his motivational and inspirational lectures. He is an author and speaker and fellow purveyor of positivity. In fact, he is one of the most upbeat and positive people I know.

In this podcast episode we discuss staying positive in a media fog of doom and gloom, how to focus on the positives in life, and even that controversial "flashlight" technique from all the ghost hunting shows.

Be sure to follow Dustin on Twitter: @DustinPari and check out his cool website www.dustinpari.com.

Please enjoy and share this with everyone. If you like what you hear, please tell everyone you know about Hughes From The Heart. Consider joining the premium content at Patreon. Thank you so very kindly.

Thanks to Tim Denning for the inspiration for this topic from a blog entry of his on the benefits of waking up early and tackling your passions and the day!

Waking up at 4 a.m. can royally suck...IF you aren't passionate about what you are doing at that early hour. 

But waking up early to run, write, compose, sculpt, podcast, etc. can be the best way to achieve your dreams!

Follow Tim on his Twitter: @Tim_Denning and check out his website at www.timdenning.com. 

Thanks again, Tim! And thanks, everyone, for listening to Hughes From The Heart, sharing it globally, supporting the premium content at www.patreon.com/spencerhughes, and making a one time contribution if you are so inclined at www.paypal.me/radiospencer. MUCH appreciated! MUCH love to all of you!

Kipp Morrill has been a listener of mine going back more than 20 years on the radio.

Always love his Facebook and social media posts and have grown to like him as a genuine friend over the years.

I offered to do an interview with him on his hobby of Bigfoot research just minutes before this Podcast episode was recorded. Five minutes notice and he sounds really darned good! 

Yes, once in a while, Hughes From The Heart will delve into one of my favorite fascinations--the world of the Paranormal.

Regardless of your personal views and beliefs on Bigfoot, I hope you enjoy this episode.

I transitioned from confrontational political talk radio (more than 20 years) to a much more easy going style and a Positivity Podcast called Hughes From The Heart.

My heart and soul just couldn't take the daily arguments and confrontation. It left me agitated and not so nice to be around. It left me longing for true meaning and substance.

It seems to me that I am less a part of the problem these days and much more a part of the solution.

This episode is my explanation of my hopes for the Podcast and its continued growth in the world.

We need more light and love and levity. Don't you agree?

Thanks for listening and sharing and if you are so inclined, for supporting the premium daily content as well. If you really enjoy the content here but are undecided or just not wanting to subscribe to the paid podcasts, here's another little way to help (because people ask me all the time, honestly). 

Much love to all of you.

If given the choice between more money and more time, many would instinctively say MONEY, please!!

But the reality is, we can always make more money. But we can't make more time. And really, having more time enables us to make more money. 

Then why do we squander it so much? I think because deep down, we don't ever think of running out of time...

The Pomodoro Technique has been around since the late 1980s but is seeing a revival and reboot of sorts as more and more of us strive to maximize our productivity.
