1
00:00:02.300 --> 00:00:06.600
Renee Baribeau: Hello! I'm Rene Bearable, the practical Shaman. Welcome to the Shaman's cave.

2
00:00:07.220 --> 00:00:28.890
Sandra Ingerman: Hi! I'm Sandra Ingerman, and welcome to the Shaman's cave. And today we have a show that I'm sure this is a topic that's going to speak to you, and especially if you have children and families and people you really care about in this time in the planet.

3
00:00:28.980 --> 00:00:46.969
Sandra Ingerman: When I 1st started teaching medicine for the earth, and that was in the year 2,000 is when I started teaching that material, I would say to every single group, and I still say it to every single group is

4
00:00:47.130 --> 00:00:48.250
Sandra Ingerman: the

5
00:00:48.790 --> 00:01:02.150
Sandra Ingerman: new generations who are going to be born into the world are going to come in with adaptations that are going to help them transmute the toxicity that's on the planet right now.

6
00:01:02.590 --> 00:01:16.770
Sandra Ingerman: And so I say to the group, well, we're not new babies coming in with adaptations in our bodies. So how do we survive the world that we're living in?

7
00:01:16.820 --> 00:01:37.559
Sandra Ingerman: And if you watch the news at all? And I know many of us are limiting ourselves, including me, but I like to look at headlines, and every it's like every other headline is what's going to get you in the food that you're eating or in the climate. Or

8
00:01:37.560 --> 00:01:54.750
Sandra Ingerman: I just read today. If you have any furniture in your house that's over 4 years old. There's a particular chemical that was still legal in the United States, and they 1st legalized it 4 years ago.

9
00:01:54.870 --> 00:02:15.360
Sandra Ingerman: So it's like one seed of fear after another is being planted into our psyches about how dangerous food is right now. How dangerous water is right now, how dangerous the air is right now, how dangerous our house is right now. So how do we live?

10
00:02:15.580 --> 00:02:30.659
Sandra Ingerman: And in spiritual traditions every single spiritual tradition, including Shamanism, teaches about how to transmute all energy into love and light. So with intention.

11
00:02:30.660 --> 00:02:47.719
Sandra Ingerman: we can actually, with our imagination, with our spiritual abilities, with the power of our spirit. We were born with the power to be able to transmute everything that we take in, and every

12
00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:57.690
Sandra Ingerman: every chemical we engage in, we can do it by turning it into an energy of love and light.

13
00:03:00.380 --> 00:03:07.058
Renee Baribeau: And that doesn't mean that we're suggesting that you go out and, you know, fill up on chemicals.

14
00:03:08.180 --> 00:03:14.499
Renee Baribeau: One thing that I've been noticing recently for me is that you know I've been doing a house renovation and

15
00:03:15.040 --> 00:03:19.400
Renee Baribeau: fast food like what is fast food.

16
00:03:19.640 --> 00:03:26.710
Renee Baribeau: It's fast food, and I've like got tired of having that fast

17
00:03:26.940 --> 00:03:36.819
Renee Baribeau: food, and I know I'm harping on it because it's so convenient and so easy, and, you know, consumable in in a short period of time

18
00:03:37.220 --> 00:03:40.720
Renee Baribeau: that I really had to say, I need

19
00:03:41.030 --> 00:03:49.640
Renee Baribeau: better fuel for my system in order to not be stressed out, not to be able to sleep better to do all of these things

20
00:03:51.390 --> 00:03:58.769
Renee Baribeau: like, why can't somebody make good healthy food that you can drive through and get a little bit quicker.

21
00:03:59.040 --> 00:04:15.939
Sandra Ingerman: Yeah, but used to do that. You used to have you talk about cooking in a restaurant, and you talk about serving people, food with love and light. So this is part of the life that you've actually been living. This is part of your mastery.

22
00:04:16.709 --> 00:04:37.689
Renee Baribeau: And I must say that I'm very happy with the new house that I'm renovating because I didn't really have space in my house that I built for my company, because I love to entertain, and I love to take those fresh ingredients and and make them into something magical like. Just yesterday I discovered this amazing new fish store.

23
00:04:38.049 --> 00:04:38.839
Renee Baribeau: and

24
00:04:38.969 --> 00:04:50.399
Renee Baribeau: you know you walk in, and you could smell or not smell as in a fish bowl if you walk in and you smell it. You walk out the door. But the way that the plate, the aroma of the fish door

25
00:04:50.749 --> 00:05:00.269
Renee Baribeau: made me know, like God, I drive up here 45 min to get fish, because they're taking care of it with such care, and you could see that.

26
00:05:00.379 --> 00:05:03.389
Renee Baribeau: And so for me, like.

27
00:05:03.779 --> 00:05:10.369
Renee Baribeau: I'm glad that I live in a a body system that doesn't accept me to go on day after day

28
00:05:10.559 --> 00:05:26.919
Renee Baribeau: depriving it of natural ingredients, and, fortunately for me. The island that I live on has a organic farm school, and what's happening and this should be happening in every town is that on every major artery out from the main.

29
00:05:27.159 --> 00:05:30.789
Renee Baribeau: There's popping up these little vegetable stands.

30
00:05:30.790 --> 00:05:31.800
Sandra Ingerman: Hmm.

31
00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:45.919
Renee Baribeau: You know, like in this new one has lists of signs of what's fresh. Gonna be up there, and and you know you can, within a, you know, few mile radius. You can get food that's actually grown by other people with care.

32
00:05:46.670 --> 00:06:05.440
Sandra Ingerman: Yeah, I know I was really touched. And this was back in the early 19 nineties, because I wrote about it in my second book about learning about how many people in the inner city were doing these big community gardens on their roof

33
00:06:05.640 --> 00:06:08.620
Sandra Ingerman: and helping to feed each other with love.

34
00:06:08.750 --> 00:06:20.670
Sandra Ingerman: And again, that's what our show is about is about. Instead of looking at everything as being toxic in the world that we're taking in.

35
00:06:20.710 --> 00:06:50.630
Sandra Ingerman: that there's a different way. Perception creates a reality. If you actually believe that everything that you're taking in is toxic. Everything that you're taking in is toxic. And so the show that we're doing today is about how people have throughout time been growing food, been sharing food with each other and doing it from a place of love and light.

36
00:06:50.630 --> 00:07:06.099
Sandra Ingerman: And I know, Rene, you did that in the restaurant that you have, and I know that I did it with my baking my baking. If you ever looked at the cakes I used to make, you wouldn't walk near them.

37
00:07:06.240 --> 00:07:18.440
Sandra Ingerman: but I couldn't keep up with my orders. I could never keep up with my orders, and people didn't know what it was. They had no idea. They used to say to me.

38
00:07:18.490 --> 00:07:33.150
Sandra Ingerman: I don't even know what it is, but there's a birthday coming up, and it has to be a cake from you, and it was a very painful time of my life, and I used baking.

39
00:07:33.150 --> 00:07:53.540
Sandra Ingerman: and what I noticed is that when I was baking for others I was in a place of unconditional love and unconditional joy, and that went into everything I baked, and I used to invite people in my neighborhood over for

40
00:07:53.540 --> 00:08:10.969
Sandra Ingerman: dinner on Fridays. I had no money. I was really poor at that time, so they would chip in. And I have to say, in looking back, I really didn't make food. That was that great, but I put so much care and love into it

41
00:08:11.200 --> 00:08:27.539
Sandra Ingerman: that everybody wanted to come back and chip in for the food every single Friday. So it's not about what things look like, and it's not about necessarily all the chemicals that we're dealing with.

42
00:08:27.750 --> 00:08:56.789
Sandra Ingerman: It's what happens when you take that and do the alchemical process of that of taking all those ingredients that you're working with, and mixing them together with love emanating out of your heart and light emanating out of every cell of your body? What's the difference between you eating fast food

43
00:08:57.000 --> 00:09:01.779
Sandra Ingerman: and eating food that's been infused with that much love and light.

44
00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:05.840
Renee Baribeau: When you said that I was thinking about.

45
00:09:05.970 --> 00:09:10.770
Renee Baribeau: So I ran into this place last week, and the young people.

46
00:09:11.080 --> 00:09:26.710
Renee Baribeau: and that we're tending to this place. We're so respectful and so full of heart. They're this can't be bad, because look at how good these people are who are tending to this food, and so I always.

47
00:09:26.990 --> 00:09:33.429
Renee Baribeau: I always say that like, if you're going to eat ice cream, sundae, eat it with a smile on your face and enjoy it.

48
00:09:33.630 --> 00:10:02.670
Renee Baribeau: you know, just like savor it and see the light of it shining out through you, because I think what we started out by saying was that our bodies and our systems are certainly mutating along just like they have, for you know all of the thousands of years before us, where people grew taller to breathe better air, and all of that. And you even see people getting taller now. Probably maybe the air is a little bit better up there, but that we will mutate.

49
00:10:02.690 --> 00:10:05.460
Renee Baribeau: and we have learned to adapt.

50
00:10:05.590 --> 00:10:20.600
Renee Baribeau: It doesn't mean that we should, you know, make a diet on on, you know, Big Macs, because we saw what happened to the guy who did that. But but we do want to make sure that to say a little prayer before you eat.

51
00:10:20.960 --> 00:10:32.359
Renee Baribeau: you know, you see. Sit down with the people who who bless the food before they eat it. I mean I just bless it throughout, so I never make it a special deal. And another thing you can do when you have ingredients

52
00:10:33.150 --> 00:10:40.560
Renee Baribeau: that you're working with is, thank everybody along in the food chain that helped them get here

53
00:10:40.800 --> 00:10:54.870
Renee Baribeau: from the people who shipped it, from the people who packaged it, from the people who tended to it all the way back, and understand that there's a lineage to absolutely every single food that you eat, no matter what it is.

54
00:10:55.430 --> 00:11:02.190
Sandra Ingerman: Exactly. And it's thinking about where what's the source of your water?

55
00:11:02.460 --> 00:11:09.429
Sandra Ingerman: You know we all drink water. But do you know the actual source of the water that you drink.

56
00:11:09.730 --> 00:11:14.970
Sandra Ingerman: and if you actually thank the source of the water for what you drink.

57
00:11:15.090 --> 00:11:23.139
Sandra Ingerman: is it going to change the quality of the water, and what it does physically in your body.

58
00:11:24.090 --> 00:11:34.559
Renee Baribeau: Absolutely remember. There was a time, a few years ago, when everyone was writing notes on their bottles of water and thanking their water, and we saw the difference of the molecule structures that we can see that.

59
00:11:35.280 --> 00:11:51.291
Renee Baribeau: But there's all of this unseen stuff like that. They prove, you know, that so to become fully aware of that. I have to tell you when I go to my little garden, and I'm not great at growing things. I have raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, and

60
00:11:51.870 --> 00:11:54.350
Renee Baribeau: and apples growing.

61
00:11:54.670 --> 00:12:03.239
Renee Baribeau: They really taste better, even though my strawberries are miniscule. They are full packed with vibrant energy, and I really love that

62
00:12:03.380 --> 00:12:04.480
Renee Baribeau: so

63
00:12:04.950 --> 00:12:13.280
Renee Baribeau: might be starting the garden. I met a blueberry grower yesterday, and they're like, you know, I'm not, really, I said. The rabbits are eating all my blueberries, he says, yeah, you need about

64
00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:17.236
Renee Baribeau: 40 bushes to, really, you know, make a difference.

65
00:12:18.070 --> 00:12:26.510
Renee Baribeau: I'm not sure that my 3 are. Gonna do anything but feed the birds and the the rabbits. But still I'm adding to the cycle of life.

66
00:12:26.860 --> 00:12:30.010
Sandra Ingerman: Right, yeah, yeah, absolutely.

67
00:12:30.010 --> 00:12:31.370
Renee Baribeau: And it makes me feel better.

68
00:12:31.740 --> 00:12:38.902
Sandra Ingerman: Yeah, yeah, it should. Yeah, I. I get pretty frustrated trying to grow things because,

69
00:12:39.610 --> 00:12:56.520
Sandra Ingerman: I do. I end up feeding a lot of organisms and not feeding myself with what I grow. But I think you have a good point, that it's all part of the cycle of life, and be happy. Somebody wants to eat what I'm.

70
00:12:56.890 --> 00:13:12.900
Renee Baribeau: Well, it would be nice to know how you add to the cycle of what you feed yourself with, and and how you change food that you're eating that has come from places and sources and things like that. What are the techniques you use? I think that would be a great conversation on our wall at the Shaman's cave.

71
00:13:13.830 --> 00:13:22.000
Sandra Ingerman: Yeah. And it's really important, because there's so many news stories on, what is there to hurt you right now?

72
00:13:22.681 --> 00:13:30.859
Sandra Ingerman: So what what are the practices that you can start to bring in to what you ingest

73
00:13:30.980 --> 00:13:43.989
Sandra Ingerman: the landscapes that you live in the water that you drink, so that you're not letting those seeds of fear grow into really strong plants inside of you.

74
00:13:44.020 --> 00:13:51.830
Sandra Ingerman: But you're opening up to the nurturance of the earth and the nurturance of nature.

75
00:13:51.860 --> 00:14:09.110
Sandra Ingerman: and hopefully, at some point the collective will wake up to you. Don't put toxins in your water that you drink. You don't put toxins in the air that you breathe. You don't put toxins into the earth that gives you food.

76
00:14:09.110 --> 00:14:23.040
Sandra Ingerman: but until the collective has woken up to that which most of the collective has not woken up to that. At that point we have our spiritual practices to keep, keep us safe, strong, and healthy.

77
00:14:24.190 --> 00:14:41.730
Renee Baribeau: Beautiful way to close. And you know, if you're curious about how the food is interacting with you journey on it, journey on the food and see it, you know. Light up your body and see if there's ways that you can expand, that those nutrients with your own visions.

78
00:14:43.650 --> 00:15:04.020
Sandra Ingerman: Sounds wonderful, Rene. So thank you, everybody, and we wish you a love. Love filled and light filled way of life at this particular time as we keep exploring ways of how can we stay healthy on the earth that we're living on right now?

79
00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:10.399
Renee Baribeau: Thank you all. We'll see you go over and check us out@theshamanstv.com, and we'll see you real soon.
