LOA Today - Your Daily Dose Of Happy

What does it mean to truly come home to yourself?On this heartfelt episode of LOA Today, Walt welcomed listeners to explore the transformative power of Reiki and self-discovery, joined by Anne Marie, her beloved Reiki master Carol, and the ever-curious Joy the cat. Through open dialogue, deep questions, and personal testimony, they painted a moving picture of what it feels like to find healing, purpose, and connection both to oneself and to others.From the moment Walt invited Anne Marie to introduce Carol, the conversation set an intimate, authentic tone. When Walt asked, “Why don’t we start by talking about how you got into Reiki in the first place, and what you’re doing with it today?”Carol’s answer was a story of serendipity and courage. She explained how Reiki “found” her just when she needed it most - after stepping away from a media career to care for her family and go on a journey of self-discovery. Her words, “I always think that Reiki finds you,” resonated deeply throughout the conversation.Carol revealed that before Reiki, she doubted her own abilities, even laughing when a mentor called her a healer. Yet, powerful early Reiki sessions changed her life. She described her first attunement as “like coming home,” a feeling so profound it brought tears. Each step learning, practicing, teaching - deepened her belief in the power of energy healing, and ultimately, the importance of awakening to your truest self.Walt reflected on his own Reiki experiences, noting that “the attunement literally lifted my ability far beyond where it had been.” He described the diversity of Reiki journeys: “Some people have psychic visions, others get pure physical sensations.” Carol echoed this, stressing, “Everyone’s Reiki path is different but Reiki is Reiki, and the more you practice, the stronger it gets.”Anne Marie’s voice brought in the perspective of transformation through trust and surrender. She didn’t expect a healing journey - she simply wanted to “feel calm” after a difficult year. What she found through Reiki with Carol was so much more: “It’s been a rollercoaster. I’ve felt anger, release, and an insane amount of insight. I feel like I’m finally coming home to myself.” The emotional honesty in her sharing was a highlight, reminding listeners that “you will only release today what you are ready to release. The body is very intelligent.”Themes of discernment, self-responsibility, and the ripple effect of healing echoed throughout the episode. Carol emphasized that as practitioners, it’s vital to “stay true to why the client is there,” always prioritizing respect, permission, and empowerment. Walt beautifully summarized, “Reiki is a very physical experience. Its power is real, but it’s only potent if you use it, like working a muscle.”The meeting closed with gratitude, future aspirations, and the hope that more people discover healing - whether through Reiki, meditation, or simply embracing their spiritual health as joyfully as their physical and mental wellbeing.If you've ever wondered how to reconnect with yourself, heal old wounds, or find new purpose, their questions, answers, and stories may plant a seed of hope in your own journey home.LOA Today Episode Page: https://www.loatoday.net/carol-dodsonCarol Dodson's Website: www.haneys.co.ukFollow the LOA Today podcast:  https://www.loatoday.net/follow#lawofattraction#manifesting#vibration#podcast#Q&A#waltthiessen#annemarieyoung#YourDailyDoseOfHappy#Reiki #HealingJourney #SelfDiscovery #LOAToday #SpiritualHealth #HolisticWellbeing #EnergyHealing #LawOfAttraction #PersonalGrowth

In a moving episode of "LOA Today," Walt and Camilla dive deep into the journeys that break us and make us whole again.Their conversation radiates the rawness of real-life transitions, from divorce and loss to rediscovered self-worth and the surprising power of emotional choice.Camilla, a coach dedicated to empowering women, shares her “mirror moment” - dragged into a high-conflict divorce that forced her to confront unresolved pain and protect her daughter’s well-being. Asked by Walt, “What was the story that led up to you doing what you’re doing now?” Camilla doesn’t hold back, describing courtroom battles, PTSD, and the epiphany: “If I do not elevate my consciousness and how I'm showing up, how could I help my daughter, who was struggling?” Her answer pulses with courage: “I had to become a different person to reset my daughter, I first had to reset myself.”Walt relates, validating her pain and resilience. They acknowledge how so many, especially high performers, struggle in silence with taboo topics like divorce. Camilla reminds, “We don’t have to be a victim of our feelings. To thrive and be a role model for your kids, you get to learn how to have inner peace.”But the conversation’s emotional power grows as Walt introduces a transformative twist: “Instead of regulating emotions, I like to think of it as selecting emotions.” Camilla lights up at this perspective, and they discuss how we can choose not just to endure, but to elevate our stories. “I am not tied to a default emotion for a given circumstance,  I can select an emotion I would not normally have.” Walt shares an experiment with his emotions, inspired by a flower in nature, realizing, “I had a lot more control over my emotions than I thought. Even if it was a negative situation, I could choose a positive emotion.”Camilla expands this, highlighting the cost of holding onto attachment - emotional ties to the past that silently consume our energy. “I had given way too much power to my ex, even after he was gone from my life.” She recalls coaching clients: “The moment you train your mind to focus on something neutral,  you reclaim space for yourself.”The duo touch on the contagious effect of energy: “Hurt people hurt people, If we don’t deal with our wounds, we serve without love, at home and at work.” They reveal how shifting inner energy ripples outward, raising not only personal but collective consciousness, even impacting corporate cultures.Their dialogue wraps with a powerful insight, as Walt observes, “If you come at AI with the mind of learning, you get smarter, if you wait for it to do all the work, you get dumber. It’s yes to both. The opportunity is in what we choose to make of it.” Camilla agrees: real growth lies not in the tool, but in how consciously we use it.This conversation is a reminder that we are the artists of our own emotional palette.Like Walt and Camilla, we can choose to select, not simply survive finding purpose and peace in the process.LOA Today Episode Page: https://www.loatoday.net/camilla-calbergCamilla Calberg's Website: https://www.camillacalberg.com/Follow the LOA Today podcast:  https://www.loatoday.net/follow#lawofattraction#manifesting#vibration#podcast#deliberatecreators#Q&A#waltthiessen#jodielynncraven#loatodayapp#YourDailyDoseOfHappy#EmotionalIntelligence #Healing #PersonalGrowth #Energy #SelfKindness #LifeTransitions #Coaching #Mindfulness #Empowerment #AIandHumanity

What if you could walk through life unbothered by negativity, criticism, or judgment?In a deeply moving and transformative conversation, Walt and Joel explored the liberating idea of being “unoffendable” - a mindset that challenges us to rise above outside opinions and embrace inner self-worth, even when the world presses all our buttons.From the very start, Walt brought energy to the discussion, opening with, “We are so happy you decided to join us today.” But amidst humor, he confessed to a minor mistake a mix-up in the intro video.Instead of letting embarrassment take over, he asked, “Did I offend you?” and laughed at himself. Joel’s quick wit shined: “I’ve been promoted to Anne Marie. It’s an honor!” They both agreed being unoffended is not just an accident, but a conscious choice.Joel dived deep, sharing, “As I’ve aged, I don’t care what other people think. Not because I’m antisocial - just, why should it affect me?” Walt mirrored the sentiment: “It feels like there just isn’t enough time to let others’ negativity weigh me down.” The conversation circled the essential question, “Can others really offend you if you don’t let them?” Joel offered wisdom: “Someone else’s words are just their opinion, shaped by their experience. Why should I carry that burden?”A major insight lies in how we define ourselves. Joel recalled, “Most people who get offended have identified a part of themselves that’s being attacked.” He pressed: “What happens when you keep repeating limiting beliefs - ‘I can’t lose weight, I can’t get a job, I’m just unlucky?’ You create a feedback loop that becomes your reality.” Walt added, “Instead of saying, ‘I am something,’ say, ‘I experienced something.’ That tiny shift is huge.”As the dialogue unfolded, Walt and Joel exposed how social division and political arguments flourish because people cling to narratives, creating identities that are tough to change. “If you have a narrative and someone else’s story doesn’t fit,” Walt observed, “you might say, ‘Their experience can’t be real, because I’d be offended if it were.’” The result isn’t just isolation but anxiety and frustration.Amid moments of laughter - debates about Labradoodles, humorous quips about age - they circled back to the core message: To be unoffendable is to reclaim your energy. Joel concluded with a practice: “There’s a calendar that visualizes how much time you have left. It’s not about fearing the end, but focusing on what you want to feel each day. Why spend time keeping score of who offended you?”This uplifting discussion wasn’t about ignoring pain or pretending negativity doesn’t exist. It was a clear call to choose inner peace, rewrite tired scripts, and ask: “Who do I want to be?” The resounding answer: Someone who’s truly unoffendable.LOA Today Episode Page: https://www.loatoday.net/unoffendableFollow the LOA Today podcast:  https://www.loatoday.net/follow#loatoday#lawofattraction#manifesting#vibration#podcast#deliberatecreators#Q&A#waltthiessen#joelelston#PersonalGrowth #MindsetMatters #EmotionalResilience #ChoosePeace #LawOfAttraction #SelfWorth #MentalWellness #IdentityReinvention

What if everything you thought you knew about mental health, medicine, and healing was upended by a simple act - listening, truly listening, and finally, feeling heard?That was the revolutionary pulse of our powerful conversation on LOA Today, where the soothing cadence of Walt, the open-hearted inquiry of Anne Marie, and the transformative stories from Dr. Fred illuminated a truth so often forgotten: authentic human connection can be the centerpiece of healing.From the start, the energy in the room was palpable. Walt’s warm welcome set the tone, as he introduced Dr. Fred, a psychiatrist with a background so unconventional it begged for exploration. When asked about his path, Dr. Fred laid bare his past: “I came into this world as a healer. From childhood, I was tasked with bringing peace and joy into a family full of chaos.”That longing for meaningful connection, Dr. Fred explained, led him to question the rigid, impersonal structures of conventional education and, eventually, psychiatry itself. “What I really learned,” he shared, “is that communication is at the heart of all healing. Human connection is the true source of transformation.”A moment of gravity arrived as Walt pressed Dr. Fred on the so-called “chemical imbalance” theory. “Is there really any study that proves sadness or anxiety are just chemical imbalances?” Walt asked. Dr. Fred’s answer was striking: “There’s no reliable study. There’s nothing that suggests sadness comes from a chemical imbalance. The idea was promoted because it was profitable but it’s not supported.”Anne Marie’s voice echoed the listeners’ emotions, reflecting on her own struggles and the societal pressures to seek easy fixes. “Don’t we all want a quick fix, just to make the pain go away?” she asked. Dr. Fred’s response was direct: “If it worked, I’d be selling it myself. But quick fixes are like putting a band-aid with a razor blade over a wound. The only real healing comes from connection, communication, and being your authentic self.”One of the deepest themes resonated when the conversation turned to what prevents us from being ourselves. “We learn early to become someone we’re not, just to protect who we really are,” Dr. Fred said, his words heavy with empathy and raw honesty. “But if you can move the things out of the way, get back to your core, and let yourself be truly seen and heard, that’s where real healing blossoms.”Anne Marie summarized the emotional current perfectly: “We are here for a human experience - feel it all, the beautiful and the grotty, and speak your truth.”In closing, Walt extended gratitude not just for the knowledge Dr. Fred shared, but for the unseen healing he’s fostered in lives he may never know. The question that lingers for all of us is simple but life-changing: In a world that tells us to seek labels, fixes, or perfection, will we dare to listen instead to ourselves and to each other and let that be our medicine?LOA Today Episode Page: https://www.loatoday.net/fred-mossFred Moss's Website: https://welcometohumanity.net/Follow the LOA Today podcast:  https://www.loatoday.net/follow#lawofattraction#manifesting#vibration#podcast#Q&A#waltthiessen#annemarieyoung#RadicalHealing #HumanConnection #MentalHealthMatters #Authenticity #Undoctor #LOAToday #HealingThroughListening #CommunicationIsHealing #BreakTheStigma #BeHeard

As the final hours of 2025 faded, Walt and Jodielynn gathered for a deep, energizing conversation that reached far beyond resolutions, venturing into the heart of what it means to live authentically, align spiritually, and embrace life’s inevitable changes.From the outset, Walt set the stage for reflection: “Wow, that went fast.” Jodielynn responded with laughter and recognition, noting how, with age, time seems to fly.This simple observation opened the door to one of the conversation’s first poignant questions: “Isn’t this the time for reflection?” Walt asked, sparking a dialogue about what resolutions really mean. Jodielynn’s answer, delivered with warmth, was laced with humor her father’s resolution “to only drink when alone or with someone” has never failed. Walt confessed his last successful resolution was to never make another.Yet, beneath the humor, both revealed their skepticism about typical New Year’s goals. Jodielynn questioned, “Do they ever work?” And together, they explored why - too often, resolutions rely on sheer willpower, a “muscle” Walt called “not a large strength.”Instead, their dialogue shifted toward the power of alignment. “Alignment is more sustainable and effective than willpower,” Jodielynn explained, “It’s about energy. When we’re in alignment, change happens not just in us, but around us.”Walt described his own daily practice: pausing to focus on his heart. “Just stay there, no other agenda. That alone works,” he said, marveling at how this simple act shifted his entire mood and the course of his day. Jodielynn added, “The heart is a powerful, energetic tool more than just the organ that pumps the blood.” They exchanged stories of heartbreak and spiritual awakening, with Jodielynn vulnerably recounting the pain of losing friends who couldn’t follow her journey. “Have I done something wrong? Am I on the right track?” she wondered. Through sharing, they recognized these losses made space for new, aligned connections.One of the most touching moments came as Jodielynn revealed her struggle to shift perspective regarding life’s disappointments. “If you could have done anything differently, would you?” she asked herself and the answer, ultimately, was no. Walt responded, “The choice is how we appreciate,” underscoring the power and responsibility in choosing self-kindness.Together, Walt and Jodielynn delved into the magic that emerges when self-acceptance becomes the center of our inner work. “Simply changing that perspective, even just opening the door, opens the possibilities to the universe,” Jodielynn said, her voice full of hope. As the call closed, both looked eagerly toward the new year. Walt committed to continued daily heart alignment, Jodielynn is intent on slowing down, savoring life, and deepening her connection to spirit.Their message was clear: resolutions fade, but true transformation begins from within.LOA Today Episode Page: https://www.loatoday.net/resolutionsFollow the LOA Today podcast:  https://www.loatoday.net/follow#lawofattraction#manifesting#vibration#podcast#deliberatecreators#Q&A#waltthiessen#jodielynncraven#loatodayapp#YourDailyDoseOfHappy#HeartAlignment #SpiritualGrowth #SelfKindness #Resolutions #NewYear2026 #PersonalGrowth #EmotionalWellbeing #LifeLessons #LOAtoday
