Today, Michael welcomes Dr. Mark Hyman. Mark is a practicing family physician, an internationally recognized leader, speaker, educator, and advocate in the field of Functional Medicine, and is a fifteen-time New York Times best-selling author. He is the founder and director of The UltraWellness Center, as well as the founder and chairman of the Food Fix Campaign which is dedicated to transforming our food and agriculture system through policy. His podcast, The Doctor’s Farmacy, has over 200 million downloads and his latest release, “Young Forever Cookbook,” comes out in June.

*Please note that today’s episode contains explicit language.*

During their conversation, Michael and Mark discuss: 

-What Functional Medicine is—examining the root causes of disease and health and creating the conditions for the body to thrive—and how it helped Mark in his healing journey back from mercury food poisoning, chronic fatigue, memory loss, gut health issues, and more

-The explosion of ultra-processed foods in the U.S. and their effects on our bodies including neuroinflammation

-How food companies hire “craving experts” to find the “bliss point” of food that makes certain foods addictive

-Mark’s food policy advocacy and his work to democratize health care through his Functional Medicine website

-How people can start using Functional Medicine today, Mark’s new “Young Forever Cookbook,” and a whole lot more!

As always, Michael concludes with a brief meditation that encapsulates the energy of their conversation.

In today’s episode, Michael welcomes Dr. Eben Alexander. Eben, an academic neurosurgeon whose transcendental Near-Death Experience (NDE) transformed his materialist worldview, is a pioneering scientist and modern thought leader in the emerging science that acknowledges the primacy of consciousness in the Universe, and is the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Proof of Heaven, The Map of Heaven, and Living in a Mindful Universe.

During their amazing conversation, Michael and Eben chat about:

–Eben’s NDE during his week-long coma and what he discovered about life as a result 

–The differences between materialism and quantum physics in understanding life and consciousness, and debunking the idea that consciousness is located in the brain

–The plethora of global research revealing that NDEs are not dreams or hallucinations as suggested

–The big message for all of humanity from those who’ve had miraculous recoveries after being close to death or surviving NDEs which all of us can discover through meditation – and so much more! 

Next, Michael concludes with a brief guided meditation.

On today’s show, Michael welcomes the Venerable Dhyani Ywahoo, founder and spiritual director of the Sunray Meditation Society and the Sunray Peace Village Land Trust in Lincoln, Vermont. Sunray preserves and shares the peacemaking teachings of the Cherokee spiritual traditions and Tibetan Buddhism, and in 1992, was granted NGO status by the United Nations as a gateway for Indigenous voices to be included in planetary conversations. 

For four decades, Venerable Dhyani has designed and taught programs for training peacemakers, mediators, and CEOs, inspired by Ani Yun Wiwa and Buddhist wisdom. She is also the CEO of Beautyway Productions and the author of many curriculums and books including, “Voices of Our Ancestors,” “Learning Cherokee Ways: The Ywahoo Path,” and “108 Quotations: A Treasury of Mystical Wisdom.” 

During their powerful conversation, Michael and Dhyani talk about:

-The mystical way she and Michael met back in the 70s

-Dhyani’s spiritual gifts, which started during her childhood and were further developed under her Cherokee grandparents’ tutelage 

-The ancestral lineage she holds which believes that we came to Earth to relight the fire of having clear minds and that it’s our spiritual duty to be happy because what we think and speak reverberates throughout the world   -The meaning behind our connection to nature, including the water and trees

-Sunray Village’s transformational programs, ceremonies, and more!

And as always, Michael concludes with a brief meditation.

Next, as Black History Month ends this week, Michael chats with 15-year-old youth activist Yolanda Renee King, daughter of Martin Luther King, III and Arndrea Waters King, and the sole grandchild of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Coretta Scott King.

Today’s Life Question of the Week comes from someone who grew up with the image of God as a man in the sky with brunette hair, blue eyes, and pale skin. Although his concept of God has vastly changed, as a visual person, he still imagines God in this way, and wants to know how to release this old image. 

Next, Michael sits down with Laura Widney. Laura is the President of Soaak Clinics in Tulsa, OK, and co-founder of Soaak Technologies whose mission is to lead the way in providing holistic solutions for the mind, body, and spirit. She is dedicated to fostering mental and physical balance through cutting-edge Sound Frequency Therapy and holistic modalities, as well as making holistic change accessible to individuals worldwide. 

During their informative conversation, Michael and Laura discuss: 

-The promising science behind Sound Frequency Therapy, which inspired Laura to test it on herself, resulting in tangible improvements in her health, life, and finances

-How in its most simplistic form, *everything*, including our physical, mental, and emotional states, vibrates at a particular frequency, and the higher the frequency, the better we feel

-How we can train ourselves into higher states of elevated awareness until it becomes more natural to us

-The decision to digitize Soaak’s sound frequencies and create the Soaak App so people around the world can access them without having to travel to their Tulsa, OK clinic

-The difference between Sound Frequency Therapy and binaural beats, the powerful combination of sound frequency and mindful intentions for optimal health – and so much more!

Next, Michael concludes with a brief meditation that encapsulates the energy of their conversation.

Today’s Life Question of the Week comes from someone who had a major falling out with her parents after discovering through DNA testing that her dad is not her biological father, and wants to know how to release all the hurt and anger she feels.   Next, this special Valentine’s Day edition of Take Back Your Mind is all about Love as Michael shares insights from his short e-book, “The Eight Principles of Thriving Relationships” (see below on how to download your free copy!) including:

-How all relationships--intimate, family, friends, work--have to be based on the principle that we are evolving and are here to grow, develop, and unfold into our greater yet-to-be

-The number one mistake people make in their relationships is believing that their joy, happiness, love, and fulfillment will come from their external relationships 

-The importance of the roles of “The Cheerleader and The Critic” in our relationships

-The “Friction of Fictions,” which is when two people come together who have not started to do the work around healing the parts within themselves that desire healing, resulting in two fictional characters attempting to get along

Next, Michael sits down with the acclaimed bestselling author of the Conversations with God book series, Neale Donald Walsch. Neale has written 40 books on contemporary spirituality and its practical application in everyday life, including his latest, GodTalk: Experiences of Humanity’s Connections with a Higher Power, a book in the Common Sentience book series. Seven of Neale’s Conversations with God books made the New York Times bestseller list. Book One remained on that list for 134 weeks. His titles have been translated into 37 languages and have been read by millions of people around the world. 

During their universal and poignant conversation, Michael and Neale discuss:

-How Neale’s Conversations with God series came to and through him during a time of profound life changes and inner transformation

-How everyone is having a direct conversation with God or a Higher Power all the time, but just calls the experience by other names. It’s not something that only happens to “special people” or just occurred during ancient times

-That certain religious leaders and organizers came to use religion as a means to control people by saying they needed intermediaries and certain sacraments and rituals to “get to God”  

-Neale’s latest book, GodTalk, which outlines six steps for intentionally conversing with God based on his own experiences and observations, plus inspiring stories from people around the world who’ve experienced divine interventions of their own

-How Gen Z and younger generations should “question the prior assumption” when it comes to existing ideas and beliefs about God, and be more curious and courageous about exploring their own spiritual identities – and much, much more!  

And as always, Michael concludes with a brief meditation that encapsulates the energy of their conversation.

Today’s Life Question of the Week comes from someone asking how to let go of the anger they feel towards a family member’s financial abundance when they believe they don’t deserve it. 

Next, Michael sits down with Matthew Fox. Matthew is an author, theologian, and activist priest who, for over 50 years, has ignited an international movement to awaken people to be mystics, prophets, and contemplative activists who honor the Earth and work for justice. He founded the University of Creation Spirituality to help establish a new pedagogy for learning spirituality grounded in an effort to reawaken the West to its own mystical traditions in such figures as Hildegard of Bingen, Meister Eckhart, the mysticism of Thomas Aquinas, and other contemporary scientists and mystics. 

During their insightful conversation, Michael and Matthew discuss: 

• Matthew’s early life as a monk in the Dominican Order, and his eventual embrace of spirituality and Liberation Theology which ultimately got him expelled by the Vatican
• The challenges of institutionalized religion, why younger generations are moving more towards spirituality, and what that means 
• The importance of returning to mysticism and spirituality, and Matthew’s work in discovering the teachings of Western mystics including:     -Thomas Aquinas, a 13th-century theologian and Dominican monk who stood up the religious establishment of the day by embracing Aristotle and his paganist beliefs in nature, science, creation, non-dualism, and being present to love and the Universe     -Julian of Norwich, the first woman to write a book in English in the 14th century. She wrote about the goodness of nature, that nature is God, and that we are all born in, and are here to share joy     -Howard Thurman, an American author, philosopher, theologian, mystic, educator, and civil rights leader who grounded all of his work in the idea that life is alive with creative intelligence
• Cultivating joy, and how playfulness and fun are virtues – and much more!

And as always, Michael concludes with a brief meditation that encapsulates the energy of their conversation.

*Please note that this conversation includes a brief discussion on Bishop Carlton Pearson, a progressive spiritual teacher and author who, since the recording of this episode, has passed away.

Today’s Life Question comes from someone whose brother is moving to another country to be with the person he loves, and while she’s happy he found someone, she’s skeptical about him making this life-changing decision for someone he only recently met.

Next, Michael chats with acclaimed pop culture thought leader, speaker, life strategist, counselor, and author of “The Miracle Mentality,” Tim Storey. Tim is credited for enhancing the lives of millions and has traveled to 75 countries helping people to realize the best version of themselves. Whether one-on-one or in groups of more than 20,000, Tim is able to connect on a personal level with people from all walks of life, from entertainment executives, celebrities, and professional athletes, to adults and children in neighborhoods throughout America and in the most deprived and war-torn regions of the world. Through his several best-selling books, presentations, and strategy sessions, Tim’s mission is to bring to light all of the possibilities that are too often blocked by fear or hidden by one’s limited viewpoint.

During this deeply insightful dialogue where Michael not only interviews Tim, but Tim also interviews Michael, they discuss:

–How having a miracle mentality means feeling a sense of peace and joy despite life’s challenges, changes, and loss, and knowing you’ll get through anything regardless of what’s happening

–Why it’s more important to focus on developing our strengths vs. trying to fix our weaknesses

–Living in ‘the Mundane,’ ‘the Messy,’ ‘the Madness,’ and ‘the Miracle’ of life, and what that all means 

–That it is natural for us to feel good and that we are wired for love, peace, and goodness, but we must learn how to bring it out, and that they must be practiced

–How Tim’s travels and asking questions broadened his scope of spirituality and Christianity 

–Tim’s new, upcoming podcast with Deepak Chopra, “Never Alone” – and much more!

And as always, Michael concludes with a brief meditation that encapsulates the energy of their conversation.

--Kyle’s transformation from award-winning comic to answering a higher calling and using his comedy for a higher purpose

--Why Kyle makes decisions based on how he feels vs. “evidence” of what he can see, and why knowing who you are is much more important than knowing what you’re going to do

--How all growth is about letting go of limited perceptions, patterns, and traumas and making space for what’s next: “Your mind can only see what you’ll lose tangibly, but not what you will gain.”

--When having to justify having something in your life is a sign that it’s actually time to let it go

--Kyle’s meditation practice which he calls “Single–Breakup–Soulmate” which describes the releasing of the egoic construct and merging with the soul

--Why people are actually afraid of bliss – and lots more!

And as always, Michael concludes with a brief meditation that encapsulates the energy of their conversation.

Next, Michael chats with Mark Victor Hansen and Xavier Eikerenkoetter, co-authors of Reverend Ike: An Extraordinary Life of Influence, a compelling biography on the iconic evangelist and New Thought pioneer who rose from abject poverty in the Jim Crow South to live a life of affluence while leading millions of poor Blacks to unprecedented financial success, independence, and joyful living.

Reverend Ike comes out in December (you can pre-order your copy now on Amazon). 

Mark is best known as the co-author of the Chicken Soup for the Soul book series and brand, setting world records in book sales, achieving #1 New York Times Bestseller 59 times, with over 500 million books sold, and becoming the Time Magazine Publishing Phenomena of the Decade. Xavier is a musician and spoken word artist who served as a spiritual minister for 40 years and worked alongside his father, Frederick J. Eikerenkoetter II, better known as Reverend Ike. He’s the founder of the United Palace of Cultural Arts in New York and the Rhythm Arts Alliance in Los Angeles.

In this incredible episode, Michael, Mark, and Xavier discuss:

—Rev. Ike’s rebellion against the crushing poverty and religious dictates of the Jim Crow South that told Black people they were here to suffer and would get their joy later in Heaven

—His non-conformist, non-traditional teachings that you can experience “Heaven on Earth” now with right-thinking and the right understanding of the Bible, and how to make the journey in consciousness from lack and limitation to an abundance mindset

—How Rev. Ike applied spiritual principles and the ancient wisdom he studied with modern knowledge to demonstrate that everyone–regardless of race, status, income, etc.–can be Soulful Revolutionaries who can actualize their full potential 

—The pushback and criticisms Rev. Ike received and how he responded to that

—His strong belief in giving and his generosity that fueled his charitable work in education

—When Mark discovered Rev. Ike after he lost $2 million in one day, and what his teachings did for Mark’s life and success that brought him from poverty to prosperity, and from sickness to health 

—The powerful spiritual foundation Xavier received growing up as Rev. Ike’s son and eventually working alongside him, including some heartwarming and funny stories, and what the book teaches about creating and living your highest and best life – and a whole lot more!

Today’s Life Question of the Week comes from a single woman who fears she might not be a good match for the type of partner she envisions for herself and wants to know how can she move past that. 

Next, Michael sits down with Kute Blackson, a beloved inspirational speaker and transformational teacher, and author of the bestselling books, You.Are.The.One. and The Magic of Surrender: Finding the Courage to Let Go. Kute’s mission is simple: To awaken and inspire people across the planet to access inner freedom, live authentically, and fulfill their true life’s purpose—a calling he’s been answering for over 20 years.

During their dynamic and extraordinary conversation, Michael and Kute discuss:

–The incredible life and spiritual lessons Kute gleaned from the unlikely story of how his parents met–a prominent Ghanaian minister and a Japanese woman living on separate continents and not speaking each other’s languages–and their 40-year marriage

–How growing up half Ghanaian and half Japanese in London, and not fully identifying with either culture prompted a deep soul searching within Kute for his identity, which ultimately led him to his true spiritual identity and calling

–How Kute’s mother’s cancer diagnosis planted the seeds for him to understand what surrender truly meant and the spiritual gifts it offers

–The misconceptions around what surrendering is (i.e., being weak, passive, giving up, etc.), what surrendering actually means (i.e., releasing resistance and opening up to unlimited possibilities), and how to start the journey

–The importance of grieving ‘what was’ as part of the process of surrendering to ‘what can be’ so that you can be fully open to the new

–How surrendering allows you to transcend the limitations of human consciousness and life to live a life of beauty – and much, much more!

And as always, Michael concludes with a brief meditation that encapsulates the energy of their conversation.

–How performing in B2K taught him how to work in a group with others and share the stage, and the life lessons that taught him

How do we live and walk through life as love and peace given the current reality of everything happening around us? Find out on today’s Life Question of the Week!

Today, Michael welcomes civil rights advocates and global humanitarians Martin Luther King, III, the eldest son of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Coretta Scott King, and Arndrea Waters King, his wife. In their conversation, recorded the week of the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday, they discuss the Kings’ work at the Drum Major Institute promoting global human rights and eradicating the “triple evils” of racism, violence, and poverty through embracing peace, justice, and equity, and tapping into our own personal power in the continuing work of creating the Beloved Community, per Martin’s parents’ vision.

On today’s Life Question of the Week Michael answers the existential question: “If I chose to be here on the planet at this time and picked the parents that I have, how come I couldn’t have determined the outcome for my life, or have it turn out better than it did?”

Next, Michael sits down with Bruce Lipton, stem cell biologist, the bestselling author of The Biology of Belief: Unleashing the Power of Consciousness, Matter and Miracles, and an internationally recognized leader in bridging science and spirit whose breakthrough studies in the 1980s and 90s on the cell membrane gave rise to one of today’s most important fields of study: the science of epigenetics, which has since been validated in many subsequent papers by other researchers.

In this episode, Michael and Bruce discuss Bruce’s spiritual epiphany which transformed his life as well as his understanding of and approach to his cell biology research; how our mind/consciousness/energy field affects our body chemistry, genes, and how we experience life; and how we can retrain our consciousness to create healthy beliefs for a healthy life.

This week, Michael answers the Life Question: Although I “do the work” spiritually-speaking, why do I keep having the same issues?

Next, he welcomes one of the premier teachers, writers, and speakers on spirituality, personal development, and loving relationships, Iyanla Vanzant. In this wide-ranging conversation, Michael and Iyanla talk about her groundbreaking work on Iyanla Fix My Life, OWN TV’s #1 show and her decision to end it; why people hold on tightly to their pain and suffering; the importance of actively participating in our own transformation through introspection, vision, and intention; the forceful rise of the Divine Feminine; the distinction between growth work and healing work; and why trust and surrender are two of the key factors in transformation; plus, what’s next for Iyanla–and much more!

On today’s Life Question, Michael answers a question from someone who is struggling with connecting to the concept of what it means to “surrender all to God.”   Next, Michael chats with Shawn Stevenson, nutritionist, author of the international bestselling books, “Sleep Smarter” and “Eat Smarter,” and the creator of The Model Health Show, which is featured as the #1 Fitness & Nutrition podcast in the United States.  In this episode, Michael and Shawn discuss why body fat is not really the culprit it’s been made out to be; the surprising way that our gut bacteria controls our body weight; and some specific foods that can positively alter our microbiome and influence fat loss.  Shawn also talks about the connection between food and our brains (including which foods and nutrients are clinically proven to have a direct impact on our memory and focus), our sleep, and our psychology—and more!

He then ends with a brief guided meditation that embraces the energy and teachings of his interview.

In this debut episode, Michael explains the theme of the show and what it means to take back our mind. So what is the mind? The mind is a set of programs impacted by and conditioned through our parents and family dynamics, society, civil and social culture, the media, social media, etc,. which tends to shape our perceptions, thoughts, beliefs, emotions, world view, and our experiences. Oftentimes, these thoughts and emotions are repetitive, and have a tendency to be rooted in fear, worry, doubt, shame, and guilt. So to take back the mind means to break free from the present formation of these thought-forms through being dedicated to the spiritual awakening to our Real Self that is emerging and embracing the next great vision and version of ourselves. 

Each week, Take Back Your Mind features guests who, in their own unique way, are on the leading edge of human expansion and evolution.

But first, Michael starts off each show with a Life Question of The Week from listeners and viewers where he offers practical spiritual insight and encouragement around relationships, finances, health, life purpose, or in understanding world events (you can submit your question to [email protected] ). This week, Michael answers a question from a woman who is grappling with the death of her husband from cancer, despite him living, what she believed, was an ideal spiritual and physically healthy lifestyle.

And, each episode ends with a brief guided meditation that embraces the energy and teachings of the interviews.
