    Reiki Healing with Brett Bevell | The Wisdom of Jacob’s Ladder EP114
    Jun 1 2026
    Please join Jacob as he brings on fellow Reiki master, energy healer, poet, author and guest lecturer, Brett Bevell. Brett will be delving into his journey into reiki and energy healing, discuss his powerful spiritual experiences and transformation and provide a powerful healing for us. Reiki master Brett Bevell is author of several books, including Psychic Reiki, The Wizard’s Guide to Energy Healing, The Reiki Magic Guide to Self-Attunement, and Reiki for Spiritual Healing. Brett is also a leader in the field of energy healing apps, first exploring this concept in 2013 through his book New Reiki Software for Divine Living, and also now offering his energy healing work through the Soulvana App by Mindvalley. His latest work is The Reiki Divine Healing card deck, published by US Games. Since receiving his Reiki master initiation in 1995, Bevell has dedicated himself to discovering new Reiki techniques that work collaboratively with the higher self. These simple techniques are not only highly effective, but also shift Reiki into a practice of daily living that can transform even the most mundane aspects of our lives into works of healing. Brett’s clients include a number of Hollywood stars and screenwriters, and he is publicly endorsed by Carrie Ann Inaba from ABC’s Dancing with the Stars. Also a poet and performance artist, Brett is author of America Needs a Woman President, and America Needs a Buddhist President, a poem that initially aired nationwide on NPR’s All Things Considered. Bevell has electrified audiences around the world with his live oral recitations, and he has often been compared to the late poet Allen Ginsberg. Bevell’s poetry is featured in the anthology Chorus: A Literary Mixed Tape and he performed with Saul Williams and Aja Monet at Joe's Pub in New York City as part of the book’s release. Bevell’s work is also part NPR’s permanent website archives. Learn more at https://brettbevell.com.

    Love Never Ends with Shelby May | The Wisdom of Jacob’s Ladder EP109
    Mar 23 2026
    In this episode, we welcome renowned evidential medium and intuitive Shelby May. Shelby will discuss her journey into spirit and share insights from her readings. Shelby's Bio: From a young age I knew I was different. I’ve constantly been told I am extremely sensitive and too emotional. I couldn’t help but feel the emotions of other people around me. I would also sense things I couldn’t explain, causing me to have extreme anxiety.As the years went by, my anxiety increased and it became difficult to be around many people. I began to feel several uncomfortable sensations throughout my body, believing me to feel that something was medically wrong with me.After years of seeing many different Doctors, being told I was fine, I finally decided to learn to meditate and take up Yoga.Soon after, I learned about Reiki, a form of energy healing. I was determined to work and heal myself from my anxiety and sensations I had been feeling in my body. It wasn’t until my own personal healing, I discovered I had been blocking my ability to feel, sense, and communicate with the spirit world. Since then I have taken various courses, working with world renowned mediums, independent studies, and personal experiences, I have developed my knowledge and practice. I am always continuing to learn and grow.Along my journey I felt called to help others and now I love supporting my clients as they deepen their abilities and continue their spiritual development.I am a tested, certified medium through Mark Ireland and The Helping Parents Heal organization.Today it is my greatest joy to be able to help others by using my gift of medium or to help them unfold their own unique abilities.
