Start Your Transformation Now⁠

These days all kinds of “spiritual authors” have all kinds of books about “spiritual laws.”

However, most people mix and match “laws” that tend to validate their model of reality.

In this episode I quickly cover the “Seven Cosmic Laws” brought to the world by Hermes Tresmegistus and though the laws were just published around 100 years ago, the manuscript is believed to be over 10,000 years old.

These are the laws that govern as laws and as you’re listening to this episode you’ll find two things: one, it will be obvious why your life has unfolded in the way that it has and secondly, you’ll start to see just how powerful you are.

The Seven Cosmic Laws are known as Hermetic Wisdom and in this episode I lay out all seven for you.The Laws…1. The Principle of Mentalism:The All is mind; The Universe is Mental.2. The Principle of Correspondence:As above, so below; as below, so above. As within, as without; as without, so within.3. The Principle of Vibration:Nothing rests; Everything moves; Everything vibrates.4. The Principle of Polarity:Everything is dual; Everything has poles; Everything has its pair of opposites; Like and unlike are the same;Opposites are identical in nature, but different in degree; Extremes meet; All truths are but half-truths;All paradoxes may be reconciled.6. The Principle of Rhythm:Everything flows, out and in; Everything has its tides; All things rise and fall; The pendulum swing manifests in everything; The measure of the swing to the right is the measure of the swing to the left; Rhythm compensates.7. The Principle of Cause & Effect:Every cause has its effect; Every effect has its cause; Everything happens according to law’ Chance is but a name for law not recognized’ There are many planes of causation,but nothing escapes the law.8. The Principle of Gender:Gender is in everything; Everything has its masculine and feminine principles; Gender manifests on all planes.

Transformational Takeaway

Our lives are governed by cosmic laws and when we know these laws we then have the “scepter of power.”

Are You A Turkey, Otter, Badger, Skunk, or Something Else? In all my time doing the podcast I’m surprised that I’ve never talked in depth about “Animal Medicine.” So, here you go. I was introduced to “Animal Medicine” two decades ago and I have consistently used it over the years for healing and guidance. Many of the students in my transformational program initially had not heard of it and when they start using it they become surprised at the true guidance it can help us within life.

Most people believe they are the sole architects of their decisions. But in truth, many factors influence our choices. Whether it’s career-related or a new relationship, outside elements have a tendency to sway our thinking. In this episode, Jim breaks down a belief he calls the brainwashed script. He explains that most people follow pre-programmed prompts without even realizing it. Even when a decision feels spontaneous, he says it can be traced to early childhood moments. Using an early ‘90s children’s Tylenol commercial as an example, he explains that we are often persuaded to do something based on an idea planted in the subconscious mind. In these situations, analytical thinking goes out the window, and a decision is made solely based upon the seed planted.

Yes, you read the headline correctly. Fear is the cure for fear. Why? Because you’ll not go through fear until you go through your fear, hence, fear is the cure for itself. I could spend hours writing fancy copy explaining this episode but it’s as simple as this: Go through your fear or you’ll never go through your fear and when you go through your fear your higher essence and Spirit will be free to soar.

In this episode, Jim tackles the misconception that learning more is the key to transforming life. Yes, knowledge is powerful. But context is everything. Jim uses common vices, like smoking and dieting, to show that knowing something is wrong isn’t enough to make you change. He also explains why piling on more information only confuses you, and uses his experiences as an example.

This episode was inspired by a current student of mine. Essentially, he wrote me a note and was sharing how he’s feeling hopeless about the state of the world, the future of humanity, and the planet. I can definitely understand his fears; however, from my perspective, I’m not hopeless at all. Actually, I’m quite optimistic about the future.
