August 18, 2012\u00a0 Archives\/Pod Casts\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Hour 1 <\/a> –\u00a0\u00a0 Hour 2<\/a> –\u00a0\u00a0 Hour 3<\/a><\/p>\n

Hour 1:\u00a0 Jason Miller (Inominandum)<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/strong>Joining the show during the first hour is well-known teacher, author, and blogger Jason Miller (Inominandum)<\/strong>, who will be discussing his latest book, Financial Sorcery:\u00a0 Magical Strategies to Create Real and Lasting Wealth<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Every witch and magician knows a few good money drawing spells, yet few know how to teach people to build wealth using magic while maintaining their spiritual life.<\/p>\n

\"\"In his new book, Financial Sorcery<\/em><\/strong>, Jason lays out step-by-step instructions that will help improve anyone’s fiscal situation.\u00a0 For those who are already well off and for people deeply in debt, for the unemployed and the underemployed, Jason will demonstrate how to use magic to create real and lasting wealth.<\/p>\n

“It has been said that money is the root of all evil.\u00a0 In my experience, it is the lack of money that is the root of a lot more suffering than money itself.\u00a0 I agree that there is more to life than money, and I agree that many people can wind up enslaved to materialism, but if you can’t avoid money and you can’t serve money, then the only choice is for you to master it!”\u00a0 – Jason Miller<\/em><\/p>\n

Jason’s interest in the occult was sparked by a series of psychic experiences he had when he was just five years old.\u00a0 He took up the practice of both High Magick and Hoodoo Rootworking while still a teenager, learning how ceremonial and folk magick can work together and compliment each other.<\/p>\n

He has been involved with a number of orders and groups over the years, always seeking the quintessence of the arte.\u00a0 He has traveled to New Orleans to study Hoodoo, Europe to study Witchcraft and Ceremonial Magick, and Nepal to study Tantra.\u00a0 Miller is a member of the Chthonic Ouranian Temple and the Sangreal Sodality, as well as an initiated Tantrika in the Nyingma and Bon lineages of Tibet.<\/p>\n

Jason has devoted more than two decades of his life traveling the globe and studying and teaching practical magic in many forms.\u00a0 He is also the author of Protection and Reversal Magick:\u00a0 A Witch’s Defense Manual <\/em><\/strong>and The Sorcerer’s Secrets <\/em><\/strong>as well as being a regular contributor to Behutet <\/em>magazine.<\/p>\n

Jason also runs the Strategic Sorcery Training Course and Strategic Sorcery blog (Inominandum.com\/blog<\/a>).\u00a0 He lives with his wife and children in the New Jersey Pine Barrens, where he practices and teaches magic.<\/p>\n

Hour 2:\u00a0 Dr. Harry Haroutunian, M.D. (first half hour) and Gregory L. Jantz, Ph.D. (second half hour)
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"Joining Amerika Now during the first half of the second hour is Dr. Harry Haroutunian<\/strong>, Physician Director of the Betty Ford Center in Palm Springs, California, and collaborator with Dr. Louis Teresi on the book, Hijacking the Brain: How Drug and Alcohol Addiction Hijacks our Brains \u2013 The Science Behind Twelve-Step Recovery<\/strong>.<\/em><\/p>\n

When Bill W. and Dr. Bob created Alcoholics Anonymous 77 years ago, they borrowed principles learned from a Christian fellowship called the Oxford Group to create their 12-step recovery program.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey knew that their spiritual \u2013 not necessarily Christian \u2013 program was effective where other \u2018cures\u2019 had failed, and over the years, there have been many theories as to why,\u201d says Dr. Harry, as he’s known. <\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cNow we know that stress is the fuel that feeds addiction, and that stress and drug and alcohol use cause neurological and physiological changes,\u201d Dr.\u00a0 Haroutunian says. \u201cThese changes are primarily in the deep brain reward centers, the limbic brain, responsible for decisions, memory and emotion.\u00a0 These centers are \u2018hijacked\u2019 by substances of abuse, so that the addicted wants the booze or drug above anything else. \u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"Addiction is recognized by experts as an organic brain disease<\/em>, and most experts promote Twelve-Step programs (AA, NA, CA, etc.) which invoke a ‘spiritual solution’ <\/em>for recovery.<\/span> <\/span>To date, no one has described “why”<\/em> these programs work.<\/span> <\/span>Hijack<\/span><\/em> tells us why<\/em>.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Dr. Harry is an internationally known speaker on addiction who has created the “Recovery 101” lecture series.\u00a0 He is also the author of the soon-to-be-published book, Staying Sober When Nothing Goes Right.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Second Half of Second Hour:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"Best-selling author, counselor, and addiction specialist Dr. Gregory L. Jantz, Ph.D., <\/strong>joins Amerika Now during the second half of the second hour to discuss his latest book, #Hooked:\u00a0 The Pitfalls of Media, Technology, and Social Networking.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s fun, if a bit trivial, to see that your old college roommate got engaged, or invented a new sandwich. But new studies show some dark consequences related to the world\u2019s biggest social networking site, Facebook.<\/p>\n

Norwegian researchers recently developed a test for networking sites, called the Bergen Facebook Addiction Scale, which likens excessive time spent on the site to drug and alcohol abuse. The test measures how often people use Facebook, if they do so to forget their problems, and how using the site negatively affects personal and working life.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u201cWhen people abuse drugs and alcohol, they are trying to feel better, yet they are worsening their situation, and we find this is also true for those who spend an inordinate amount of time on social media sites,\u201d says psychologist Gregory L. Jantz.<\/strong> \u201cPerhaps the hardest hit from social media addiction is the family unit.\u201d<\/p>\n

Women are one of the most at-risk groups for Facebook addiction, Jantz notes, citing the Norway study.<\/p>\n

Not only are children opting for computer time over time with their parents, in an increasingly hectic society, many moms and dads are also giving up their precious free time to Facebook rather than face time with their kids, he says.<\/p>\n

\u201cTechnology continues at its accelerating pace, and we are in unchartered territory,\u201d Jantz says. \u201cIncreasingly, social networking infiltrates our personal lives, but we need to remember that it is created to serve us, and not the other way around.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dr. Gregory L. Jantz has more than 25 years experience in mental health counseling and is the founder of The Center for Counseling and Health Resources, near Seattle, Washington. \u00a0 The Center is \u201ca place for hope\u201d which provides comprehensive, coordinated care from a treatment team that addresses medical, physical, psychological, emotional, nutritional, fitness and spiritual factors involved in recovery.\u00a0 Dr. Jantz is the best-selling author of more than 20 books on topics from depression to eating disorders.<\/p>\n
