This might be my favorite live stream. A knowledgeable guest with great wisdom and compassion. I loved how the guest choked up showing a deep love, kindness, empathy, and compassion. A great soul, I do believe.

Robert's compassion, knowledge, grace, and humor are moving and delightful. One of my favorite guests from the channel, Jeff! (Speaking as one who's watched a couple hundred of your riveting interviews :)

Great conversation. In my approach as a shamanic practitioner, hypnotherapist and holistic counselor, I use the "parts model", and unless the client themselves is comfortable with the notion of "spirit possession" or "power intrusion," I frame my intervention in terms of ""energies" that are active at a conscious or unconscious level. If they're problematic to the client, then we want o uncover why they are perceived as such, and as Mr. Falconer says, discern what positive role they might instead be trying to play in the person's inner ecology. Thanks once again, Jeffrey and Emmy and the New Thinking Allowed family.

I love the kind and generous tone of this conversation. The understanding of the source of internal pain is so tender. Thank you all for this window into further understanding the many voices that are heard inside.

Wonderful interview! I have listened to Mr. Falconer's book twice so far.

[@ArrowGmod]

This was your best live stream to date . Great job !

[@maxzoe948]

Another fascinating conversation from the Thinking Aloud team. Robert Falconer is amazing.

[@MaryKingsley-py4js]

Actually, it's rare indeed to find a person who is actually an individual in their own right without any form of possession - even if it's a sub-personality.

[@cosmicsoul7773]

Enjoyed. Thank Dr. Mishlove, Emmy & Robert Falconer. Great live stream.

[@Minenergyintention]

very insightful interview.

[@bradwarfield]

"My intention is my protection" - wow I did not know the Dalai Lama said that, but that is what I've used in my years of paranormal experience with spirits and entities, it never fails me. I've put myself into a LOT of vulnerable scenarios with spirits and hauntings over the years, and deal with them daily now basically, as they fill my home/property, and I always believed that as long as your heart is pure (intention) and that you remain aware of and act in a way that is connected to your divine nature, your Buddahood, whatever you want to call it, that these beings and energies have little reason to bother you, or have little interest. But the good, divinely-inspired beings will hop and bounce and move around you everywhere you go. I post examples of this on my channel if interested (non-monetized).

Pour love on it! That’s the best advice! ❤

When my daughter was in her early 20's, she told me that once she did not come when I called when she was 5 because there was a "mean clown in the hallway that wouldn't let her pass". I felt so bad when I heard that. I don't know what I would have done at the time had I known, but probably rebuked it and prayed for protection. So this is a very interesting discussion

[@leucocephala]

Absolutely wonderful and very useful information, thank you!

[@jeanhorseman9364]

If you shine bright, arrive with or develop higher vibration during your life you will be see by a greater spiritual world. Both higher and lower spirits will be able to see you wether you want to be seen or not. Better to embrace and learn about the world that you shine in.

[@PeripheralWisdom]

great guest to have on

[@EchavarriaJr]

Dolores Cannon said there is no spirit possession. She clearly doesn’t know what she is talking about!

[@wildhumans8116]

This topic will be taken more seriously in the future.

[@LoneRanger.801]

LOVED IT

[@randonauticawalksandmore9012]

The Bible says that Perfect Love casts out all fear.

[@bthearcher]

Thank you

[@anonymoushuman8344]

Very interesting.

Maybe the technology is possessed. 😂

[@NanceH11]

A lot to process -spirit, soul, body and how many freaking parts are we talking about here for the average person? 😮

[@user-so2iv6zg7n]

❤❤❤

[@sarahswetlik1034]

I'm so sorry I wasn't able to make the live! It was a good talk. I love listening to what Robert has to say about parts work and possession. I wonder what he would have to say about people on the autism spectrum or those that have Adhd. Is that a form of possession?

[@randonauticawalksandmore9012]

Yes, why do they scream at you (in your head) at times? Once it was when I was explaining a Bible passage. Another time was when my ex had something screaming in his head for a year to kill himself. What is the deal with that?

[@bodymindsoul60]

Does anyone know if any one of his books expounds on how one of these entities “decide” who they are going to attach to, such as a baby in the womb? 🧐

[@ransbarger]

Is mental illness caused by these mal entities? In particular schizophrenia.

[@withgoddess1119]

Who is Emmy and why is she here?

[@NewThinkingAllowed]

Emmy is the regular CoHost of New Thinking Allowed, chosen by me for her talent, knowledge, and commitment.

[@EleneDOM]

What was your point in asking that?
