About this episode
When a life is irrevocably changed by a prophecy-fulfilled death of a brother, a profound journey toward healing can begin. Holistic health visionary, author, and spiritual seeker Kristina Amelong joins the conversation to share the haunting, true story behind her powerful memoir, What My Brother Knew . She details her path from a childhood marked by abuse and addiction, reclaiming vibrant health through holistic protocols and profound inner work. As the founder of the Optimal Health Network and a senior board member at the Center for World Philosophy and Religion, Kristina discusses the sacred lessons of loss and how her transformation serves as a guiding light for transmuting grief into rebirth and embracing conscious evolution. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL HEAR ABOUT THINGS LIKE: Sharing a personal healing journey can lead to collective healing from unresolved loss. Grief is an evolving, communal process. True healing comes from embracing all intense emotions to deepen spiritual connections. Overcoming self-destructive paths is driven by a deep internal will, supported by community and structured healing work. Profuse, prophetic visions concerning death can occur and unfold with astonishing accuracy. The nature of consciousness is eternal. The soul leaves the body, finding a sense of universal love and knowingness. The universe "delights in our becoming" as personal growth is an evolutionary process that positively affects all humanity. Joy is found in simple, present-moment activities, learning, and fostering profound, healing relationships.
