GUEST: GENIE O’MALLEY
Genie O’Malley, President and Founder of Drug Free Solution, Inc., pioneered an emotional wellness technology which provides a breakthrough solution for heroin, meth, and opiate addiction along with community healing. Genie has provided her technology to over 260,000 individuals worldwide since 1996. She is an award-winning author, one a handful of Wall Street women business owners and an avid and accomplished photographer who is presently working on an exhibition of her work featuring communities as they heal. Her emotional wellness technique provides solutions for an additional 48 conditions, ranging from PTSD and depression to weight loss and fatigue.
In 1997 the foundational theory for what would eventually grow into a publically traded company was formed. Under the guise of multiple market tests than ran over the past 18 years, we have now come to know this theory as the Living Breath Process housed within it’s mother company Drug Free Solution Inc. What began as a journey for founder and CEO Genie OMalley to uncover new solutions in the emotional wellness market has transformed itself into 109 core products that deal with a variety of emotional conditions including but not limited to PTSD, Depression, and Chronic Fatigue. Comprehensive training and education have been developed as part of a behavioral modification system that provides additional support for the Living Breath Process. The individual programs are unique to their specific market because their results can be achieved with complete discretion inside of a person’s own living environment.
We have witnessed the most profound change through our programming in the field of Addiction. Our Heroin, Opiate, and Methamphetamine programs were tested in Santa Cruz, CA with successful integration into a majority of the local drug court systems. The most profound change took place when Genie shut down one of the largest drug homes in the city while simultaneously ensuring that all 74 occupants became free from their addictions. Roughly 95% of those original 74 occupants are still clean today. These profound results could not be ignored, so it has become the company’s mission to provide discrete and humane healing from heroin, opiate, and methamphetamine addiction through at home programming.
The company continues to thrive today as it spreads its message to people of all ages, gender, race, and background that emotional wellness is not a choice but a right within us all.

Paul had hear of IIIT before somewhere but he did not remember why. So after an hour's worth of research he wrote the president of Nazareth and was ignored. He posted his letter to the president on an alumni site. He was soon black listed for asking questions. Paul says that is the wrong thing to do a research writer! Since then Paul has written two books, appeared on several radio shows and two TV shows. Paul says he will go wherever he is invited to get this message of truth out about the war of Civilization Jihad being waged against Canada and the USA.

About HESS AND THE PENGUINS: The Holocaust, Antarctica and the Strange Case of Rudolf Hess By Joseph P. Farrell
Pursuing his investigations of WWII machinations, secret international agreements, breakaway civilizations and hidden wars in Antarctica, author and researcher Joseph P. Farrell examines the continuing mystery of Rudolf Hess, his sudden flight to Scotland, his supposed imprisonment at Spandau Prison in Berlin and how his flight affected affairs in Europe, Israel, Antarctica and elsewhere.

ABOUT 'Against Our Better Judgement: The Hidden History of How the U.S. was used to Create Israel by Alison Weir...
"Prodigiously documented... Alison Weir must be highly commended for throwing such a brilliantly hard light on the relationship between the United States and Israel. I hope this marvelous book gets all the attention it deserves." - Ambassador Andrew Killgore, Publisher, Washington Report on Middle East Affairs.
Soon after WWII, US statesman Dean Acheson warned that creating Israel on land already inhabited by Palestinians would "imperil" both American and all Western interests in the region. Despite warnings such as this one, President Truman supported establishing a Jewish state on land primarily inhabited by Muslims and Christians.
Few Americans today are aware that US support enabled the creation of modern Israel. Even fewer know that US politicians pushed this policy over the forceful objections of top diplomatic and military experts.
As this work demonstrates, these politicians were bombarded by a massive pro-Israel lobbying effort that ranged from well-funded and very public Zionist organizations to an "elitist secret society" whose members included Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis.
AGAINST OUR BETTER JUDGMENT brings together meticulously sourced evidence to illuminate a reality that differs starkly from the prevailing narrative. It provides a clear view of the history that is key to understanding one of the most critically important political issues of our day.
Chris Murhpy is a Violinist, Composer and Band Leader
For 25 years, and with no sign of slowing, violinist Chris Murphy has made a living by writing, performing and recording original music. For Murphy, the path forward is charted by looking backward, to the troubadours and minstrels of ages past. Forget the exaggerated reports of the music industry’s demise. It’s only the record industry, a relative blip in the history of putting tones in sequence, that’s suffering. Music, and the opportunity to make a life’s work out of it, well, that’s not going anywhere. “In another era,” he says, “I would have played square dances, and loved it. I would have been a court musician in Versailles in the 17th Century, or a violinist in a circus orchestra.” For Chris Murphy, inspiration spans eras and aesthetics, but the fundamentals are the same.
Born into an Irish-Italian family near New York City, Murphy was surrounded by the disparate and eclectic sounds of his neighbors’ traditional music. “I heard and was influenced by everything – from Italian-mandolin music, to bluegrass and folk, to Latin music,” he says. Inevitably, he discovered rock ‘n’ roll, claiming still further influence from some of rock’s most adventurous and eclectic icons: Lou Reed and Ry Cooder, Bob Dylan and Richard Thompson. “My real hero,” he says, “was David Lindley. Hearing him play fiddle and lap steel with Jackson Browne — that kind of esoteric, enigmatic soloing over songs is originally what I loved.”
He learned about Turkish and Indian music at Simon’s Rock of Bard College and then studied composition at Boston’s New England Conservatory of Music. A longtime instrumental dabbler, Murphy has mostly taught himself how to play percussion, guitar and mandolin, even some Eastern instruments, but he found his proper match at 22, when he picked up the violin. “It’s the one instrument you’ll find anywhere you go,” he says. “And it has a wonderful, charming kind of minstrel quality. I love all the myths surrounding it.”
Eventually, Murphy did as so many American adventure seekers had done before him: He sought his fortune in the West. Now based in Los Angeles, Murphy earns his living by teaching — guitar, mandolin and violin — working on music for films, and, mostly, by performing his work for audiences.
And that’s hardly at the exclusion of recording. To wit, Murphy has amassed a deep catalog of solo and collaborative albums and made cameo appearances on records by Har Mar Superstar and The Dandy Warhols, among others. Murphy’s recordings include the likes of Steve Hodges and Larry Taylor from Tom Waits’ band, Nels Cline (Wilco), Mike Watt (fIREHOSE), D.J. Bonebrake and John Doe (X, The Knitters), Herb Pedersen (The Desert Rose Band), Tim O’Brien, Joachim Cooder (Buena Vista Social Club), Joey Peters (Grant Lee Buffalo), Walfredo Reyes Jr. (Santana), Trevor Hutchinson (Waterboys, Lunasa) and Pat D’Arcy, L. Shankar (Peter Gabriel), Victoria Williams. In the last year alone, Murphy has written and recorded six new albums in a vast array of styles. Chris has also been featured on television programs such as ‘Til Death and The Ellen Degeneres Show; his diverse and chameleon-like talents make him a sought after composer and collaborator for film and television. Chris has also performed in over 40 US states, in England and in Ireland.
As he searches for new ways to communicate through music, fusing styles and techniques from across the globe — a unique fabric of world music, he calls it — Murphy finds his element on the stage, where spontaneity and improvisation reign. “To me, the music is liquid, and I’m looking to have some kind of experience.” he says. “I’ll twist and turn and hammer and mold and shape cut and paste the music to do that. We’ve never done a song the same way twice.” As ever, Murphy re-forges the past to make a new way.

Mr. Peter Bedard MA, C.Ht.
Alternative health expert and host/producer of CYH
Expertise: Alternative Health, Author of Convergence Healing, Healing, Hosting, Community Activist, Anxiety, Addiction, Chronic Pain, Integrative Wellness, Guided Imagery
Originally hailing from San Jose, CA Peter Bedard is passionate about alternative health, empowering others to heal, and inspiring them to live a life that is full of wellness and awareness. Peter has a “been there done that” positive attitude when it comes to healing. He’s died before and come back to a shattered life and dreams. He knows the pain of being in pain and his work focuses around addiction, anxiety, and pain while guiding people to reclaim their life and stand in their personal strengths. For many he is a bright light in a dark world of misery.
You know how some people just don’t seem to heal? They are stuck in a loop of pain whether it be emotional, spiritual, or physical and they live in fear of never being able to effortlessly engage in life again. Well, Peter helps them find hope and reclaim their life so as to once again live happy, joyous, and free. Peter is a Hypnotherapist with an MA in Consciousness Studies (the study of quantum theory and theology), the host of CreateYourHealth.com, the owner of CYH Teas, Healing Herbs and Spices, a teacher/workshop facilitator, author, and sought after personality full of life and positive energy.
Having survived an astounding near-death experiences (Check out “I Survived, Beyond and Back)and four other close to death experiences Peter had to learn how to walk (again) and heal himself from a number of medical conditions over the years. Peter has now turned his attentions to his personal passion for assisting others with their wellness.
Somewhere at the crossroad of Dr. Andrew Weil and the daredevils from Jackass lies Peter’s ongoing project, Create Your Health, where he tries on alternative or traditional (indigenous) health practice he can track down. Whether they are off the shelf or off the wall – ear coning, tapping, acupuncture, sound therapy, iridology, shamanism, witch doctors, stone throwers, scientists – Peter welcomes the opportunity to be a human guinea pig!
Peter spent close to 20 years in pain and Healed himself of fibromyalgia, bronchitis, chronic pain, chronic sinus infections, asthma, depression, anxiety, siatica, chronic allergies, and an allergy to chlorine.
His mission is to “Inspire Wellness” and share information about healing through a process he created for his own life, Convergence Healing, A 7 Step Process for Healing Pain, that he now teaches in workshops, through his private practice, and in his upcoming book.
Kate Curtis began specializing in alternative methods of pain relief in the early 90’s as an addition to her professional career as a nurse and midwife. She continued her healing education, qualifying in Reflexology and then graduating with a Licentiate from The Acupuncture Foundation of Ireland College. Having completed a post graduate internship in one of the Traditional Chinese Medicine hospitals, she received a Diploma in Acupuncture from Nanjing College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, China.
She has trained extensively in different healing modalities including Qigong and Tuina qigong, Reiki, and Taichi Chuan, and also in classical acupuncture and celtic herbalism. Kate has also trained with Dr. Stanislav Grof in transpersonal psychology and Holotropic Breathwork.
Kate’s specialty lies in her ability to help a person get to the root of their pain. Her extensive understanding of energy healing and her knowledge of western medicine, and midwifery, brings reassurance to the people coming to her for healing. She also brings the values of empathy and integrity, and has learned to listen to silence. Her gift lies in her intuition, which facilitates her to be able to help bring to the surface the more deep and hidden issues, thereby allowing a person to heal from the deeper core level.
Kate has in more recent years also been working with more emphasis on the psychological and spiritual aspect of the individual. This has led her to work more closely with the more ancient traditional systems of healing, incorporating different cultural philosophies, such as is found in the shamanic traditions of each country. She uses alongside the traditional Chinese medical form of acupuncture both esoteric and classical forms of acupuncture which assist the person in their quest for consciousness exploration and personal awareness.
My upcoming guest on Cosmic LOVE, David Christopher Lewis, author of 'Saint Germain on Advanced Alchemy'.

Welcome David Lewis to Cosmic LOVE with your Presence!
~ Christopher Rudy
In the late 80s, author Colleen Mauro founded Intuition: A Magazine for the Higher Potential of the Mind to introduce readers to the emerging field of intuition development. Now that we know the basics, it’s time to take the next step. In her new book, she introduces us to a more advanced form of intuitive perception called spiritual telepathy. Spiritual Telepathy introduces readers to the ancient mind-training techniques that will allow them to access the wisdom and guidance of their own souls. These techniques, once taught in the ancient mystery schools of Egypt, Greece, Babylon and India, come from a body of knowledge called the Ageless Wisdom. As the Wisdom teachings tell us, the soul is our gateway to the higher worlds. Through the soul, we have access to the universal or divine mind where information on all subjects can be found. In the past, it's been only the "special" people--our saints, shamans and spiritual leaders--who have had access to the higher worlds. The tide of evolution has brought us to the point where many of us can now take this momentous step. It takes only the willingness to commit to a daily spiritual practice. The catastrophic problems we face today are speeding up the pace of evolution and calling forth this expansion in human consciousness. With our world in crisis, our very survival depends on our ability to tap higher sources of wisdom and knowledge. As Albert Einstein famously said, the problems in our world cannot be solved by the same level of thinking that created them. Spiritual Telepathy provides readers with a step-by-step method for contacting the soul and accessing the universal wellspring of inspiration and knowledge. The author draws on a variety of spiritual traditions and explains how the new science validates these ancient teachings. She shares her own experiences and introduces readers to others who have also used these practices. When we contact the soul, our life purpose becomes clear. Each of us has a task, a contribution to make to the world, and, as Eckhart Tolle and others have told us, we are all urgently needed. When we invoke the magic of our souls, we take our place among the pioneers who will lead the way to a more peaceful, sustainable, and compassionate world.
CHRIS HEDGES spent nearly two decades as a foreign correspondent in Central America, the Middle East, Africa and the Balkans. He has reported from more than 50 countries and has worked for The Christian Science Monitor, National Public Radio, The Dallas Morning News and The New York Times, for which he was a foreign correspondent for 15 years.
Hedges was part of the team of reporters at The New York Times awarded a Pulitzer Prize in 2002 for the paper's coverage of global terrorism. He also received the Amnesty International Global Award for Human Rights Journalism in 2002. The Los Angeles Press Club honored Hedges' original columns in Truthdig by naming the author the Online Journalist of the Year in 2009, and granted him the Best Online Column award in 2010 for his Truthdig essay "One Day We'll All Be Terrorists."
Hedges is a senior fellow at The Nation Institute in New York City and has taught at Columbia University, New York University and Princeton University. He currently teaches inmates at a correctional facility in New Jersey.
Hedges began his career reporting the war in El Salvador. Following six years in Latin America, he took time off to study Arabic and then went to Jerusalem and later Cairo. He spent seven years in the Middle East, most of them as the bureau chief there for The New York Times. He left the Middle East in 1995 for Sarajevo to cover the war in Bosnia and later reported the war in Kosovo. Afterward, he joined the Times' investigative team and was based in Paris to cover al-Qaida. He left the Times after being issued a formal reprimand for denouncing the Bush administration's invasion of Iraq.
He has written nine books, including "Empire of Illusion: The End of Literacy and the Triumph of Spectacle" (2009), "I Don't Believe in Atheists" (2008) and the best-selling "American Fascists: The Christian Right and the War on America" (2008).

Unspeakable
by Chris Hedges, David Talbot (With)
Hedges here speaks up about the most pressing issues that currently face our nation. He tackles the rise of a fascist right in support of Donald Trump, which advocates xenophobia and violence in a push for American totalitarianism. He rails against the posturing of inclusivity from establishment elites on both sides of the aisle, who post-Occupy-Wall-Street continue to advocate for policies that make America uninhabitable for all but the ultra-rich and, as lackeys for corporate interests, continue to expand income inequality in all directions. He tears into the contemporary glamorization of the military and the unchecked, unchallenged hawkishness that defines contemporary American foreign policy. Moreover, he shows his support for contemporary revolts against this twisted order—such as Black Lives Matter—that represent Americans refusing to take the destruction of their country lying down. And that’s just the start.
He possesses a clear understanding of the challenges that lie before us, and has proven to be ahead of the curve time and again. All of which is to say, Chris Hedges is unafraid to say what is necessary and true—and has always been. If we are to combat the intellectual and moral decay that have come to grip American life, we must listen to him and the urgent message he brings in this book.

Jane loves facilitating extraordinary conversations in her private practice, locally and globally and is passionate about creating a comfortable and safe space for people to finally speak candidly about the most intimate and seemingly difficult topics, often for the first time.

Her speaking engagements cover topics relating to sexual health, sexuality, dating and relationships, sex and illness or cancer, sex and aging, sex and aging and her favourite topic, masturbation. Most recently she was invited to speak at TEDxSFU. Her talk “A Motion For Masturbation” reached 1.4 Million views in March!
She is always looking for more opportunities to speak about these topics. And, given the overwhelming response to her TEDxSFU talk, she is currently working on her first documentary. Jane meets with her clients locally in Vancouver, Canada, and globally by Skype at Jane.

Brandon Skall and Jeff Hancock met while DJ’ing. Both avid music fans, frequent bar goers, and enthusiastic men-about-town, the two D.C. residents also were acutely aware of the empty tap handle or store shelf where a local beer ought to be found in their city. In 2009, they combined their years of experience in both brewing and beverage distribution to found the DC Brau Brewing Company. Due to his extensive experience in restaurant management and the beverage industry, including posts with Passion Foods Restaurants, The Henry Wine Group and Frederick Wildman & Sons, Brandon took the reins as CEO to handle the sales and business side of the brewery.
The partners opened DC Brau on Tax Day in northeast Washington, DC, with the intention of brewing beers within the city limits, available citywide, for the beer nerds and recreational beer drinkers alike to call their own. Over the past 4 years, DC Brau has brewed nearly 100 different beers under their label or in collaboration with restaurant, bar and brewery partners – all of which represent a delicious and uniquely American blend of North American and European techniques and ingredients. At the core of its portfolio, DC Brau offers three signature brews available year-round, including The Public (Pale Ale), The Corruption (IPA), and The Citizen (Belgian style Ale), with seasonal and special brews released on a regular basis, like the award-winning, critically-acclaimed On The Wings of Armageddon (Imperial IPA) and its Penn Quarter Porter.
