This podcast features Barbara Hand Clow author of The Mayan Code, Time Acceleration and Awakening the World Mind. Barbara is an international Mayan Elder, Cherokee Record Keeper and ceremonial teacher. Her insights on the Mayan Calendar and its meaning are profound and valuable.
Kelly chats with Dr. Sara Mednick, a research scientist at the prestigious Salk Institute for Biological Studies in La Jolla, and the author of Take A Nap! Sara believes that we can change our lives by taking a nap during the day. Not only can we be more alert, but we can become smarter, healthier and more productive. We can lower the risk of having a heart attack, as well as reduce our weight and improve our memory. Sara’s research has shown that after a nap people perform better on cognitive tests, and they can work longer hours.
During the podcast, Sara explains that we can nap to achieve specific outcomes. For example, short naps of 20 minutes will improve motor skills. A nap of an hour clears your mind and improves your memory, and a 90-minute nap improves your creativity. If you’re sure that you could never find time for a nap in your day, Sara confirms that napping takes practice, and tells you how to set the stage for a good nap.
Who should nap? Everyone, especially if you’re working hard or are studying for exams. Kelly and Sara discuss naps to potentiate memory, which is vital information for students. At the end of the podcast, you may well decide that napping will become an essential part of your life.

John will appear in a documentary on the Maya that will be broadcast on the History Channel in March 2006. John’s careful scholarship and cutting-edge insights into why the Maya chose 2012 to end a great World Age cycle have been endorsed by the most progressive thinkers of our day.
Alan Chapman is a Western magick practitioner, and the author of the newly released book, Advanced Magick for Beginners. Alan found his way into the field of Chaos magick through the work of Aleister Crowley and since has worked with a powerful technique called “the Holy Guardian Angel,” which very much like the guru yoga techniques of the Vajrayana schools, allows one to surrender to an external guide on the path to enlightenment. Alan shares with us the details of the Western occult tradition, including its core purpose of enlightenment, which he calls “the great work” of magick. He also connects some of the spiritual practices of magick with the Buddhist maps and models. Finally, he shares with us some of the details of a project he has recently launched called Open Enlightenment, whose purpose is to promote a transparent and open discussion surrounding the nature of enlightenment throughout the world’s mystical traditions.
