From Good Radio Shows, Inc. | Part of the Peace Talks Radio: Weekly Hour Long Episodes series | 59:00
Best-Selling Author Byron Katie shares details about her method to help individuals deal with the turmoil within themselves. She's captured in an interview and before a live audience with her husband and co-author Stephen Mitchell.
Peace Talks Radio, the series on peacemaking and nonviolent conflict resolution returns this time to maybe the most challenging conflict terrain of all, our inner selves. How can we calm the turmoil within ourselves about who we are, how we are and how we relate to the rest of the world? On this edition of Peace Talks Radio, a conversation with a woman who offers one approach. Her name is Byron Katie who, in the mid 1980's, says she was in deep personal chaos trying to manage her life as a business woman and mother living in Southern California. More than miserable, she says she was deeply depressed, fearful, suicidal and living in a halfway house, unable to manage on her own. Some 20 years later, the woman everyone calls Katie has written three best-selling books "Loving What Is," "I Need Your Love - Is That True?", and "A Thousand Names for Joy" co-written with her husband Stephen Mitchell. As the book titles suggest, Byron Katie found a way of dealing with her stress that turned her life around. She says, on a specific 1986 morning in that halfway house, she experienced what she called a falling away of self that led to an inner freedom. She insists anyone can achieve it utilizing a method of personal inquiry she's crafted that she calls, The Work. "I realized that when I believed my thoughts, I suffered," says Katie. "But when I didn't believe my thoughts, I didn't suffer. And I've come to see that this is true for every human being." In our program, host Suzanne Kryder interviews Byron Katie about The Work, and we hear both her and her husband Stephen Mitchell recorded before a standing room only crowd in a Santa Fe auditorium. Available in 59:00, 54:00 (newscast friendly), or 29:00 versions. Promo included. Part two is timed differently for 59:00 and 54:00 versions. Billboard and Pt. 1 is the same for both lengths.

So much conflict comes up in our lives over money. Are there ways of thinking about money that might bring us more peace of mind?

Host Suzanne Kryder talks with Lynne Twist, author of "The Soul of Money: Transforming Your Relationship With Money and Life" and financial advisor and author Brent Kessel who wrote "It's Not About The Money: Unlock your Money Type to Achieve Spiritual and Financial Abundance." In part one of the program, we visit with Lynne Twist, who's had a long career as a global activist, fundraiser, speaker, and mentor. She works to end world hunger, empower women, nurture children and youth, promote economic integrity and spiritual authenticity, and preserve the earth's natural heritage through the Hunger Project, Pachamama Alliance, Institute of Noetic Sciences, and State of the World Forum. She has raised hundreds of millions of dollars and trained thousands of fundraisers to be more effective in their work. In the second part of our program, we talk with Brent Kessel, one of the top 250 financial advisors in the U.S. according to Worth Magazine. If you go to his website www.BrentKessel.com, you can take a quiz to determine your money type. There are eight types. Most people are mixtures of each but once Brent finds out which types you are, he can help you understand your relationship with money and address any conflict you might have over it. Kessel has also studied meditation with many of the worlds' most revered teachers. This piece comes in both 59:00 or 54:00 (newscast-friendly) versions here.

Peace Efforts at the Rainbow Gatherings (54:00 / 59:00) [Peace Talks Radio]
From Good Radio Shows, Inc. | Part of the Peace Talks Radio: Weekly Hour Long Episodes series | 59:02
Are the annual Rainbow Gatherings, on National Forest Land each Fourth of July, just free-wheeling havens for hippies or are they serious experiments in utopian, nonviolent communal living? They've been happening every year since 1972. An exploration of the Rainbow Gatherings on the next edition of Peace Talks Radio.
Since 1972, 22 states in the U.S. have hosted at least one of 37 "Rainbow Gatherings." The Rainbow Gathering is a temporary intentional community made up of thousands who travel to a specified National Forest site each year to live together and pray for peace around the Fourth of July.
This time on Peace Talks Radio, we explore this on-going utopian experiment, to see if there are real lessons about peacemaking to be learned from the Rainbow Gatherings. Host Suzanne Kryder interviews Dr. Michael Niman, author of People of the Rainbow: A Nomadic Utopia, about the group's efforts to practice nonviolent, nonhierarchical cooperative living with each other and the earth. Niman also discusses the Rainbow's sometimes uneasy relationship with the Forest Service about the annual use of the National Forest for the gatherings.
The program also includes interviews and first-hand reports from Suzanne's participation in the 38th annual Rainbow Gathering in New Mexico, July 2009.

This time on Peace Talks Radio, the conflict scenario that we’re going to look into with our guests is sibling rivalry.
It's something that seems ubiquitous across cultures and is as old as the oldest stories in human history.
Approximately one-third of adults describe their relationship with their siblings as rivalrous or distant. Also, there’s this: A 2005 study put the number of assaults each year to children by a sibling at about 35 per 100 kids – so about a third of children are actually suffering physical violence at the hands of siblings. So, although the Smothers Brothers, and most sitcoms over the years have made sibling rivalry into an ongoing joke, it can lead to serious emotional and physical hurt. We hear ideas from our guests about how to reduce that pain – both during childhood and into adulthood if those bad feelings endure.Our guests are: Samuel Roll, a psychologist and professor emeritus in psychology at the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque; Jeanne Safer, a New York psychologist and author; and Atlanta authors and parents Denene Millner and Nick Chiles, who have three children, including two teenage daughters.
