Out of the Trance Podcast

We’re living in a time where ancient practices are now being explained by modern science - and its changing our modern world. In this episode, I’m joined by Myranda Heipel, founder of The Yogi Social, whose mission is to bridge yoga’s ancient wisdom with the neuroscience behind it. We talk about what happens when you understand the why behind a practice, how visualization, breath, sound, and movement reshape the brain; how safety and stillness regulate the nervous system; and why the same mechanisms that make hypnosis work are alive in yoga, meditation, and every embodied ritual humans have ever done. This is a conversation about integration — between logic and intuition, science and spirit, body and mind.
It’s about the tools we’ve had for thousands of years… and the language that’s finally catching up to explain them.

What does it mean to live in alignment with cosmic timing? In this episode, I sit down with Sarah Basha, astrologer, mentor, and doula for the new age—for a wide-ranging conversation on astrology as a tool for navigating the current shift in consciousness. Sarah shares how astrology can serve not just as a lens for insight, but as a framework for faith—a way to trust the unfolding of your life and understand the deeper architecture of both personal and collective evolution. We explore Pluto’s transition into Aquarius, Saturn’s movement through Aries, and what these larger archetypal shifts reveal about the moment we’re in. Throughout the conversation, Sarah speaks to the power of the hermit year, the rise of feminine leadership through the lens of Chinese astrology, and the practice of reclaiming joy—even amidst collapse, uncertainty, and rebirth. We also talk about the role of community, the importance of finding your people, the magic of synchronicity, and how to use your astrological chart as a living map for healing, direction, and alignment. Whether you’re fluent in astrology or just beginning to explore it, this episode invites you into a deeper conversation—about time, self, and the new paradigm we’re stepping into together.

What if everything you’ve been taught about leadership, productivity, and success… was based on a masculine model that women were not designed to follow? In this episode of Out of the Trance, I sit down with Philine Kok- emotional alchemist, entrepreneur, and founder of Mmm Cacao for a deep, soul-level conversation about Divine Feminine Leadership and the reawakening of long-suppressed wisdom. We trace the thread from burnout and body betrayal… to remembering the forgotten template of feminine power…the one that’s rising again. 
 We talk nervous system regulation, real-time emotional alchemy, and what happens when you stop performing… and start listening. Inside this episode: * What The Secret got right (and what it left out) * How to stop recreating success that drains you * Why your rest is your revolution and your greatest business strategy * Why most women are still afraid of their own power (and what to do about it) * Emotional alchemy as a fast path to freedom—and the nervous system as our new business coach * Co-creation, spiritual responsibility, and the fear that arises when we remember how powerful we truly are * The long-buried wisdom of Mary Magdalene, and the Nag Hamadi texts found in Egypt If you’ve been feeling the call to lead differently- to lead from love, intuition, and deep body wisdom- this conversation will feel like a homecoming.

This one goes deep. I’m joined by Anthony Kaprielian —fellow hypnotherapist, podcaster, and someone who’s been in the trenches helping high-level performers, politicians, and everyday humans wake up from the mental programming that keeps them stuck. We talk about what most people don’t realize: You’re already hypnotized. You’ve been following a map that may have nothing to do with who you really are. And in a world increasingly shaped by AI, algorithms, and external influence, the ability to reprogram your mind intentionally isn’t just powerful—it’s essential. This conversation unpacks what happens when you shift your identity at the subconscious level—and why so many people are burning out, self-sabotaging, or silently screaming for more… because they’re running on outdated code. We cover everything from victim consciousness and internalized authority to subconscious healing, nervous system rewiring, and the kind of confidence that only comes when you stop living someone else’s story. If you’ve ever felt like your thoughts aren’t entirely your own—or like you’re stuck in a loop you didn’t choose—this one’s for you.   Time Stamps: 00:00 – Getting started + meeting of minds 00:22 – The chaos before clarity 01:21 – Coaching meets hypnosis: why it matters 03:22 – Identity, reality, and subconscious maps 05:38 – High-level stories of radical transformation 11:38 – Healing through the mind-body connection 19:17 – Reclaiming confidence by clearing blocks 25:56 – How shifting identity shifts everything 29:33 – Overcoming mental cages + stuck states 30:50 – Subconscious reprogramming, decoded 32:53 – From victim mode to inner authority 41:56 – Authority is an illusion.

In this episode of Out of the Trance, I sit down with my friend Dave David Danzeiser —my first guest of Season 2, set in Bali. Dave’s journey is anything but conventional. A decade ago, he walked away from a future in biomedical engineering, propelled by an eye-opening mushroom experience that set him on a path of travel, entrepreneurship, and radical self-inquiry. We explore his transition to minimalist travel, the profound lessons from a life-altering heartbreak, and the serendipitous encounters that shaped the work he does today. Dave shares how he now helps high-achieving men navigate heartbreak, rediscover purpose, and cultivate emotional freedom through intentional living and journaling. We also dive into the power of embracing change, seeking guidance, and practicing gratitude—and how these themes overlap with my own work in hypnotherapy, regression, and inner child healing. Tune in for an inspiring conversation on breaking free from societal scripts and designing a life that aligns with who you truly are. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Time Stamps:  02:02 The Mushroom Experience and Life Changes 07:11 Planning a Year-Long Trip 08:52 Creative Ways to Fund Travel 16:06 First Steps in Affiliate Marketing 29:01 The Power of Journaling 41:38 Exploring the Unknown: The Power of Self-Reflection 42:24 Intentional Practices for Personal Growth 42:39 Helping Men Through Heartbreak 45:34 Connecting Mind and Body: The Role of Somatic Awareness 48:25 The Journey of Self-Development 52:50 The Power of Asking for Help 58:49 Collapsing Time: A New Perspective on Healing 01:09:28 Freedom and Purpose: Living Your Dharma 01:13:30 The Importance of Somatic Guidance 01:21:45 Conclusion: Embracing the Journey ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Where to Find Dave: 🔗 Dave's website: https://www.thequestforawesome.com/offer 📸 Instagram: / journalanyway Connect with Me: 🌐 The Process Hypnosis https://www.theprocesshypnosis.com 📸 Instagram: / theandreadebellis

I absolutely loved this conversation with Rachel Horton White! I recorded it a few months ago, but due to some technical issues, I’m only sharing it now. Watching it back reminded me how much I enjoyed this exchange—and the power of this connection. Rachel is a fellow hypnotherapist, intuitive guide, and Akashic Records practitioner. In this episode, we talk about how hypnotherapy and spiritual tools help us connect to something much deeper. Together, we explore how imagination opens the door to intuition, why reconnecting with the subconscious is the key to true transformation, and how breaking generational patterns heals not just us, but the collective. Rachel and I also dip into the ripple effects of raising our vibration, the fascinating history of the Knights Templar, and why hypnotherapy is so much more than quitting smoking or breaking bad habits—it’s a pathway to healing at the soul level. We compare notes on our own experience with awakening and reflect on how this work can help people reclaim their power and step into their highest potential. This episode is packed with insights on ancient wisdom traditions, the power of forgiveness to free not just ourselves but our ancestors and descendants, and how inner work ripples out to raise the collective vibration. If you’ve ever wondered how spirituality, neuroscience, and energy work come together to create real transformation, this is the episode for you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 00:22 Rachel’s background and Spiritual Journey 05:12 Discovering the Akashic Records 10:45 Integrating Hypnotherapy and Spiritual Practices 18:00 Empowering Clients Through Hypnotherapy 32:20 Understanding the Ego and Its Influence 33:33 The Role of Hypnotherapy in Healing 38:05 The Power of Forgiveness and Inner Work 41:15 Collective Consciousness and Humanity's Future 43:06 The Impact of Shame and Guilt 46:10  The Importance of Letting Go 56:46 Spirituality and Historical Mysteries 01:01:00 Conclusion and Future Conversations ------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Rachel: Rachel Horton White is a hypnotherapist, Akashic Records reader, and spiritual teacher who helps people reconnect with their intuition and heal subconscious blocks.

In this episode, I sit down with my friend Cindy Vogel to explore the power of feminine energy and the practice of polarity work. Cindy opens up about her personal journey, sharing how she discovered breathwork as a way to overcome burnout and how it led her to embrace this transformative work. We dive deep into the concept of polarity—balancing masculine and feminine energies—and discuss how modern society tends to prioritize masculine qualities. She explains why rebalancing with the feminine is essential for emotional release, creativity, and overall well-being. We also explore how intuitive practices like breathwork and feminine embodiment can play a key role in relationships, particularly in fostering trust and authentic expression between partners. Cindy emphasizes that true alignment with one's soul purpose involves trusting intuition and being open to experimentation. As we move into a new era where spiritual awareness and intuition are increasingly important, we tap into the rising importance of feminine energy. I think you will enjoy this episode as much as I love sharing it.   Cindy Vogel is the founder of Authentic Shapes, where she guides individuals in reconnecting with their authentic selves through breathwork, movement, and feminine embodiment practices. Her work focuses on emotional release, balancing energies, and aligning with intuition. She offers retreats and coaching to support personal transformation.

I learned so much from the podcast about a subject I knew so little about. Mary Om Rose, a wonderful soul I met in Ericeira, and the host of the Orgasmagic Podcast shares her transformative journey from an aspiring Hollywood actress to midwife to poet and advocate for the sacredness of childbirth. Mary's story is deeply rooted in personal revelations and life-changing events. She opens up about a traumatic experience with a director that propelled her on a solo trip to Siberia. There, she discovered the true essence of motherhood and birth, grounded in ancient wisdom and sacred practices. She recounts her transition from the toxic environments of the film industry to a path of internal healing, where she embraced the magic and power of natural birth. She delves into the profound impact of hypnosis and trance states in pregnancy and labor, highlighting her unplanned spiritual journey to Siberia, which deepened her connection with ancient birthing wisdom. And finally her ecstatic experience of free birth in the jungles of Costa Rica. Emphasizing the importance of trust, intuition, and maternal empowerment, Mary advocates for a reconnection to ancestral knowledge. Her commitment to changing societal perceptions around childbirth is evident in her work, which honors the mother’s role and promotes a love-based paradigm in birth practices. Additionally, Mary shares her vision of bringing this wisdom to a broader audience through a musical that celebrates the sacredness of birth and aims to reshape the paradigm around birth. This conversation is a compelling testament to the sacred journey of motherhood and the importance of trusting one’s inner voice. 00:00 Introduction and Welcoming Mary 00:04 Mary's Journey to Midwifery 01:30 From Hollywood Dreams to Siberian Awakening 02:28 The Transformative Siberian Experience 03:32 Discovering the Power of Motherhood 09:13 The Influence of Hypnosis and Theater 10:09 The Birth Stories and Their Impact 13:02 The Decision to Embrace Free Birth 18:05 Preparing for a Free Birth 31:33 The Journey to Costa Rica 40:56 Book Recommendations for Birth 41:33 Facing Fears Before Birth 44:07 Trusting Intuition During Birth 49:20 The Magic of Birth 56:20 Post-Birth Reflections 01:01:37 Connecting with Spirit Babies 01:07:32 The Vision for a Birth Musical 01:12:23 Final Thoughts and Future Plans 01:18:20 Mary Shares the Rap she wrote about her Birth Story --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Connect with Mary Om Rose on Instagram at ttps://www.instagram.com/maryomrose/ Listen to the Orgasmagic podcast: https://orgasmagic.com   --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Connect with me on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theandreadebellis/ START MANIFESTING FASTER WITH HYPNOSIS Out of the Trance listeners get 15% off of The Process: Rapid Hypnosis for Manifesting  Theprocesshypnosis.com USE CODE: OOTT    Get notified when new episodes drop by hitting the "follow" button.

In this episode of the 'Out of the Trance' podcast, we are going to do something a little different. I am joined here in the studio by Yana. Yana and I met on a cruise for digital nomads and entrepreneurs and she is serendipitously passing through Ericeira, Portugal, where I live.  Yana, currently going through a significant transition, asks me her burning questions about hypnotherapy and its role in overcoming personal fears and self-sabotaging behaviors. And specifically how it can help her tackle a block and fear that has been holding her back for years after a business set back. I perform a live hypnotherapy session with Yana, focusing on her fear of failure and fear of success stemming from this past experiences. Yana shares her journey, the shifts in perception, and her results afterward....you don’t want to miss this!

In this week's episode of Out of the Trance, I'm in the guest seat, chatting with Luca Shaked, a fellow podcaster and Positive Psychology Coach. We dive into Luca's questions about how hypnotherapy intersects with happiness. Luca's curiosity leads the way. She asks about specific techniques and interventions, digging into the nuts and bolts of how hypnotherapy can help people find joy and break free from negative thought patterns. My hope is that through our conversation, listeners gain a deeper understanding of how hypnosis and hypnotherapy leverage these processes to empower individuals on their journey towards holistic well-being. In our chat, we explore how podcasting can be therapeutic, especially as we're both new to the podcasting scene. We also share some personal anecdotes about facing our own phobias, including my own story about recently fainting before an interview. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  Chapters 00:00 The Therapeutic Nature of Podcast Sessions 03:41 Challenges of Starting a Podcast 10:28 Fainting During a Podcast Interview 26:05 Understanding the Quantum Zeno Effect 28:50 Exploring Positive Psychology and Hypnotherapy 43:10 The Role of Thoughts and Emotions in Mental Health 52:25 Addressing Misconceptions About Hypnotherapy   -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Connect with Luca Shaked on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/relocatetohappiness/ Listen to Luca's Podcast here https://media.rss.com/relocatetohappiness/feed.xml   --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- START MANIFESTING FASTER WITH HYPNOSIS Out of the Trance listeners get 15% off of The Process: Rapid Hypnosis for Manifesting  Theprocesshypnosis.com USE CODE: OOTT    Connect with me on instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theandreadebellis/ Get notified when new episodes drop by hitting the "follow" button.

In this conversation, I speak with Nikki Bartol about the profound role of the nervous system in shaping our relationship with money. Nikki Bartol, a CPA and money mindset coach, specializes in empowering solopreneurs to cultivate confidence around wealth. Together, we delve into the deep interconnection between money and the nervous system, highlighting how the absence of financial education in schools often leaves individuals feeling disconnected and stressed about money. We challenge the conventional belief that more action always equals more money, underscoring the importance of trust and surrender in facilitating the flow of wealth. Nikki emphasizes the significance of addressing money blocks such as scarcity, guilt, worthiness, and self-sabotage. Throughout our conversation, we discuss the pivotal role of mindset and energetics in shaping our financial reality, examining the three key steps to wealth creation: mindset, money management, and energetic alignment. Sharing personal anecdotes, Nikki and I reflect on our journeys of overcoming limiting beliefs and self-sabotage surrounding money and discuss the misconception that money is inherently good or evil, advocating instead for viewing it as a tool that empowers us to become the best versions of ourselves and make a meaningful impact in the world.

I am thrilled to share this conversation with my friend and coach, Amber Valdez. Amber is a seven-figure spiritual mentor, a life purpose coach, and a ceremonialist. In our conversation, she shares her story of overcoming a turbulent childhood to become a thriving entrepreneur with a seven-figure Spiritual Mentor. She opens up about her challenges and the imprints and spells that were cast upon her, leading to a constant feeling of not doing enough. We talk about her experience in the entertainment industry, which highlighted that external success does not equate to self-love and fulfillment. Amber emphasizes the importance of conscious awareness and choosing goals that come from a place of genuine desire rather than a need to prove oneself. We discuss the need to listen to our inner voice and take care of our well-being. The conversation explores the challenges and mindset shifts required in entrepreneurship. It delves into the experience of being the boss and the pressure to balance leadership and management and emphasizes the shift from a 3D mentality of hustle and grind to a 5D mindset of ease and alignment. Additionally, we discuss the need for entrepreneurs to evolve and adapt to the changing paradigm and explore the importance of following one's heart and listening to answers we can find by tapping into our body to hear the innate wisdom within. We talk about the power of ease and the evolution towards a frequency of ease in decision-making. Finally, we touch on the transformative effects of travel - something so important to us both, as we are American expats living in Portugal and Spain. We discuss our personal experiences and how traveling and living abroad allow for a shift in perspective and the exploration of new possibilities. Amber shares her upcoming retreats and ceremonies, inviting listeners to join her in experiencing personal growth and transformation.   For Information on how to leave the Matix and get paid for your gifts or to lean about upcoming retreats follow: https://www.instagram.com/iamambervaldez/  Amber's Exalt Program Time codes:

In this episode, I sit down with one of my teachers, Ron Shilon. After diving into the depths of quantum physics, Ron shifted gears and pursued a career in engineering. But later in life, he found himself drawn back to the world of quantum learning through his exploration of Chinese Medicine. During our conversation, Ron shares his fascinating journey, touching on the clash between societal expectations and our innate instincts. We explore how Buddhist tradition views certain paths as leading to illness and delve into the pervasive trance-like state many of us find ourselves in, emphasizing the importance of breaking free from it. We discuss the vital skill of truly seeing and the various approaches to learning, as well as how inner conflict can manifest as autoimmune and chronic diseases. Additionally, we reflect on the need to reconnect with our life's purpose and break away from the survival mode dictated by society. Our discussion also delves into the opportunities and challenges of the current awakening period. We stress the importance of returning to basics, such as consuming clean, locally sourced food, to improve both physical and mental well-being. Furthermore, we highlight the significance of finding a mentor or guide to facilitate personal growth and change. Lastly, we touch on the limitations of traditional therapy and advocate for exploring alternative approaches. In conclusion, we emphasize the importance of trusting our intuition, seeking reliable information, and freeing ourselves from feelings of shame, guilt, and fear to live a more conscious and liberated life.   Chapters 00:00 The Conflict Between Societal Expectations and Instincts 13:43 The Link Between Inner Conflict and Autoimmune/Chronic Diseases 27:59 The Opportunity and Challenge of Awakening 37:30 Exploring Alternative Approaches to Therapy 43:39 Following Intuition and Seeking Good Information Ron's bio: Ron Shilon, BSc in EE, Dip.

In the first epiosde of Out of the Trance, my friend Sean, known as The Lucky Dipper, here in Ericeira, Portugal shares his experience of a Near Death Experience followed by being paralyzed after a surfing accident and how this became the most transformative journey of his life. He started questioning everything and embarked on a discovery process, peeling away the layers of conditioning and finding his true essence. He learned to slow down, listen to his intuition, and think from the heart. This shift in perspective allowed him to embrace his emotions and connect with his whole being. Sean's story highlights the importance of deconditioning the mind and embracing the wisdom of the heart. In this conversation, we discuss the importance of reconnecting with the childlike wonder and curiosity of life. They explore the concept of inner child work and how societal conditioning can close down the heart space. We also talk about the need to create space and slow down in order to discover one's true essence and navigate the frustrations of life. The conversation touches on the themes of personal agency, milestones, and the choice between the red pill and the blue pill. Sean also introduces his own podcast, The Lucky Dipper, which aims to create a community and share stories of life-changing Near Death experiences.
