Rachel’s Reflection — Podcast Episode 6
If you’ve been feeling weighed down by the state of the world — overwhelmed by headlines, social media, politics, or the sense that “everything is going to hell in a handbasket” — this episode is for you.
In this conversation, I explore what I see happening energetically in what some spiritual teachers call the 4D world — the media-driven, technology-saturated layer of reality that keeps us emotionally hooked into fear, outrage, and division. I share a spiritual perspective on how to step back, find neutrality, and return to inner peace, even when the outer world feels chaotic. Podcast Episode 6_ Bogged Down_
In This Episode, I Explore:
- Why so many people feel emotionally overwhelmed right now
Constant exposure to global events through technology pulls us into fear and reactivity in ways previous generations never experienced. - The 4D world and spiritual distraction
Drawing from The Pleiadian Agenda by Barbara Marciniak, I reflect on how the online world can distort perspective and pull us away from presence. - Change as the only constant
Through Buddhist teachings on impermanence, I explore why resisting change creates suffering — and why clinging to “how things used to be” keeps us stuck. - Victim–victimizer consciousness
How fear-based thinking leads us to label people, policies, and events as “bad,” “evil,” or “wrong,” and how this mindset traps us in suffering. - Neutrality as spiritual maturity
From clairvoyant training, A Course in Miracles, and lived experience, I share why learning to look upon events with neutrality is a hallmark of awakening. - Questioning our certainty
Inspired by Byron Katie’s inquiry work, I invite listeners to examine rigid beliefs and consider the possibility that we may not be seeing the full picture. - Oneness vs. separation
If the Law of One is true — that we are all expressions of the same source — then judgment of others is ultimately judgment of ourselves.
A Core Reflection from This Episode
If we want peace in the world, we must cultivate peace within ourselves first.
We cannot claim to stand for love, inclusion, and compassion while simultaneously condemning, dehumanizing, or attacking others. When we are emotionally activated, reactive, and certain that we are “right,” we have already lost our center. Podcast Episode 6_ Bogged Down_
An Invitation to the Spiritual Initiate
This episode is not about politics or choosing sides. It’s an invitation into inner inquiry:
- Where am I resisting change?
- Where am I attached to being right?
- Where am I letting the outer world determine my inner state?
- What would it look like to try on the opposite of what I believe?
From a spiritual perspective, awakening does not look calm at first — it often looks like chaos. Systems break down. Old structures dissolve. And depending on where we place our attention, we experience this as either devastation or transformation.
Final Thoughts
If you feel bogged down, pulled into fear, or emotionally impacted by what you’re seeing “out there,” this episode invites you to pause, pull back, and reconnect with your inner stability.
Where your attention goes, your energy flows.
And what you believe shapes the world you experience.
