Transcript
0:00:13 Tansy Rodgers: Welcome back to the Energy Fix, a podcast dedicated to help you balance your energetic body by diving deep into the sweet world of all things health and spirituality. My name’s Tansy and and I’m an intuitive crystal Reiki energy healer, energetic nutrition and holistic health practitioner, and a crystal jewelry designer. It’s time to talk all things energy. Let’s dive in. Before we really dive into this mind expanding episode today, I want to take a moment to root in and reflect with you.
0:00:49 Tansy Rodgers: You know, here in the US we are officially entering into some summer, the season of fire evolution, this fierce truth. And with June being a Universal Month 6 in numerology, we are talking all about harmony and healing and responsibility. This is really the time to start to balance your inner world so that you can expand into that next chapter on purpose. I have been seeing this so much in my own personal life.
0:01:20 Tansy Rodgers: There has been so much, so much expansion and so much shifting. You know, if you notice that there are these opportunities coming up either for you to heal some deep inner wounds or to simply evolve into that next evolution, that next big moment in your life that maybe you’ve been holding back on, if you’ve been experiencing that, that is not coincidence. That is the energy right now. And so really tapping into that and understanding that we are being this opportunity for expansion and for leveling up.
0:01:58 Tansy Rodgers: So whether that means you’re protecting your energy, you’re speaking your truth, or you’re finally aligning your nervous system with your vision, know that it’s all connected, it’s all sacred. And you know, I want to talk today a little bit about how I want to support you through that. There is always my intuitive crystal jewelry. You can always head on over to beuchrystals.com and pick up a piece to help you root in, to rise up, to transmute some of this energetic noise.
0:02:30 Tansy Rodgers: Since all of my jewelry is infused with frequency and intention and crafted to really align with your body and spirit, you can go and do that at any point. But if you’re ready for a deeper, energetic experience, a deeper, energetic shift, then you’re really going to love what I have to say next. So I’ve been wanting to do this for a while, but I’ve just kept pushing it off and you know, I very much am trying to remember honor, divine timing, right? Everything happens for a specific reason at a certain time.
0:03:06 Tansy Rodgers: And so I’ve been trying to align with that. And I will say that now feels like the right time. So on Friday, June 20th, I am launching out this brand new eight week Crystal Series here here on the Energy Fix podcast. I’m so excited. It is called the Evolution of Self and we are going to really be exploring from root to crown the chakras of the soul, starting with the root of becoming a grounding crystal infused journey to really help you understand who you already are, learning how to root back in, get grounded in using crystals and using energy to be able to do that.
0:03:52 Tansy Rodgers: And so if this is something that really resonates with you, if you’ve been wanting to learn more not only about chakras but also about the crystals that align with it and what to do for those chakras, make sure to head on over and catch me here on the Energy Fix podcast on Friday, June 20, 2025. To start start off this eight week journey. I think I’m going to be doing some more special series throughout the year. I’m going to throw in these little extras because honestly, like when I love interviewing people, that is so much fun. But I truly don’t get to really talk about everything that I want to talk about.
0:04:39 Tansy Rodgers: And so I want to bring that to you because I have a lot of passions, a lot of insight, a lot of knowledge, a lot of love. And so yeah, we’re gonna start it off.
0:04:51 Dr. Amy Albright: Yay.
0:04:52 Tansy Rodgers: Yes. All right, so let’s talk about a few other updates before we dive into today’s guest. On Saturday, June 21, I’m gonna be at the Lehigh Gem Jewelry and Rock show here in Renningsville, Pennsylvania. So come on out and visit me and say hi. Check out the new crystals that I just acquired and that I’m excited to put out onto the we can’t wait to see you. If you are local here in Litz, Pennsylvania or somewhere relatively close, we have our next monthly Sound and Crystal Reiki Healing Group session at Shavia Healing Arts in Liditz, Pennsylvania. If that’s something interests you, please just reach on out to me and I will get you onto the schedule.
0:05:42 Tansy Rodgers: On June 26th, Thursday I will be back at Reiki By Ricky’s in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania for another enlightened day where I am offering mini crystal healing sessions. Or you can also book a regular healing session with me too, but specifically mini crystal healing sessions. I only have two spots left at the time of this recording, so if this is something that interests you, please reach on out and let me know. We’ll get you onto the books. We’ll see what we have left.
0:06:13 Tansy Rodgers: And then finally on Saturday, July 12 and July 13. That Sunday I will be at the mid Summer Holistic Expo in Lancaster, Pennsylvania for another expo weekend. It’s going to be so much fun. I love those. Those are my favorite. I love doing expos and getting to meet all of you, getting to connect with all of you. So if you are in that area or again relatively close, please come on out. I would love to say hi and to also connect. That is my favorite part of expos. It’s my favorite part of this podcast is just connecting with you and being able to hug, smile.
0:06:53 Tansy Rodgers: Yeah.
0:06:54 Tansy Rodgers: Learn about you also. So and finally remember, if you are loving this show, it would mean the world to me if you’d subscribe, leave a rating and review and help me get this work into more hands and hearts. If you send a screenshot of your review to the email in the show notes, you’ll get 15% off a distance healing session or a crystal jewelry piece as my thank you to you. I would appreciate it so much.
0:07:24 Tansy Rodgers: All right, now let’s talk about what’s happening at the cutting edge of consciousness. We have as the guest today Dr. Amy Albright. She’s a trailblazer, a visionary, a thought leader whose work really merges neuroscience, sacred practice, business strategy and energy mastery. And she doesn’t just talk about unlocking potential. She’s literally building the frameworks that allow us to rewire our brains and embody our highest expression in real time.
0:07:59 Tansy Rodgers: And as the CEO and co founder of Holon, Dr. Amy has really pioneered this cutting edge neurotechnology that doesn’t require psychedelics to radically transform your brain. She is combining advanced neurofeedback, deeply intuitive spiritual development tools and allowing those two to fuse together to help you optimize your nervous system, to release outdated patterns, and to finally create from clarity, alignment and deep coherence.
0:08:36 Tansy Rodgers: As you listen to this episode, you’re really going to understand that Dr. Amy walked her talk. Her approach to expansion isn’t about bypassing the human experience. It’s about integrating every single part of it, every single part of who you are. And in today’s episode, we’re going to talk about how you can use the science of the brain and the wisdom of the soul and tune your inner compass so that you can break free of the stuckness and change your visionary forward movement.
0:09:09 Tansy Rodgers: So if you ever felt like you were meant for more, but your brain, your body, your energy hasn’t caught up yet, then this episode is your roadmap to helping to align to that evolution. Let’s dive in.
0:09:28 Tansy Rodgers: Welcome to the energy fix. Dr. Amy, thank you so much for being Here today.
0:09:32 Dr. Amy Albright: I’m thrilled. I know we’re going to have so much fun with this conversation and exploration.
0:09:36 Tansy Rodgers: Yeah, we are. And, you know, before we got on to the recording part of this podcast, I learned that your wisdom and area of expertise expands way greater than what I even initially realized. So I feel like we’re going to really noodle into some beautiful conversations and nuggets of wisdom. So before we jump into that, before we really get started, you know, I love allowing the listeners to get to know you more intimately in this stage of your life where you’re at right now.
0:10:11 Tansy Rodgers: And so to do that, I like to ask, is there a word or a phrase that you’re really embodying right now and connecting to on a deeper level?
0:10:23 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah. Thank you. It’s fun to be able to share a little bit about that deeper journey that I’m on because it is so deep and multi layered. So my word for the year that I chose for 2025 is alignment. And what I mean by alignment is kind of within the hologram of all of reality. So alignment with myself on an energetic and intuitive knowing in every moment, alignment with all of my places that I’m putting myself ultimately. Alignment with the deepest expression in my path.
0:10:56 Dr. Amy Albright: And I feel like 2025 is already and is going to continue to be the year of me being able to speak and express my legacy in a way that is wholly different. And I think that as a piece of context, what I mean by that, it’s not about me or even my legacy. Words are funny in English, really. I’ve been on a spiritual journey since I was 18 years old, and I’m turning 50 this year. And I feel like that I, from the moment of that very profound first spiritual awakening that I consider to be like a Big Bang moment for my personal reality.
0:11:35 Dr. Amy Albright: All the way till now, I have worked as a been a channel and a voice even before I understood what those words meant. And I feel like that that channel and voice are basically aggregating, like everything’s coming together, getting more grounded. And I’m able to put into words better and better what all it is that I have inherently carried inside of the cells of my being or been able to access on an energetic level in a way that is exponentially greater than anything that I’ve been able to live into before.
0:12:10 Dr. Amy Albright: So when I speak to my legacy, really what I mean is our legacy, but my ability to express into what it is that, that, you know, to talk about the potent expression of each of us as souls in this lifetime. To be able to talk about the brain, to be able to talk about business, to be able to go into all of these different areas that seem actually disconnected for so many people, and that I’ve been living and knowing about the connection, but the alignment and the attunement of my words, to be able to express the knowingness that’s been right there, that’s all coming together this year. And it feels really good.
0:12:48 Dr. Amy Albright: Really, really good.
0:12:51 Tansy Rodgers: Well, you know, I had, I. I don’t think I started quite at 18. I was always in this inkling within my soul of there’s something greater, there’s something more for me. And so my journey started very early too. And I know looking back now I’m 47, I’ll be 48 this year. And I know looking back on my life, when I thought that I was at the greatest place of spiritual alignment, spiritual growth and fulfillment, really, it was just one little pebble on the stepping stone path that expanded so much. So I’m curious, since you started at such a young age on your spiritual journey and your word is alignment, have you seen the different phases, transitioning, what alignment actually means for you?
0:13:47 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah, I mean, alignment before, I would have thought of it as much more like a topical thing or like the 3D logistics kind of thing. And now what I mean by it is when I’m sitting in my reading, writing and contemplation reflection chair each morning, there is a juicy body feeling that, that I, that I want to stay in. And I am in through my day as I move through my day from there. So it’s like actually the action is born from stillness now.
0:14:20 Dr. Amy Albright: And that feels like another level of alignment. And the, And I think that also the feeling of alignment, I actually would like to track that back. So in my first months of practice as a, as a Chinese medicine practitioner 23 years ago, I knew that I was being given these cases. Like these people would come in with, you know, critical condition. They’d been given disease names and labels that said that they were going to live very short amounts of time or they’d been in huge amounts of pain.
0:14:53 Dr. Amy Albright: And I knew that nothing that I had learned inside of the body of Chinese medicine, nor any real body of medicine on this planet could possibly resolve such predicaments that they were in. And so I live deeply inside of the prayer of may I be used as a divine vessel. May I not have any of my own insecurities or feelings of inadequacy enter into the space with this particular person. Because that is A selfish act.
0:15:19 Dr. Amy Albright: And I’m basically distracting from the potent potential of miracle in this moment if I allow myself to waver. And so I would say that that was in some ways easier back then because I was very clearly stepping through a threshold, I was very clearly falling down like the, the rabbit hole of, of an Alice in Wonderland moment experience in my life. So I love what you said a moment ago about. It is not that I feel like I am done right now, it’s that I feel like that I’m birthing a 32 year project or a multi lifetime project and coming into brand newness.
0:15:55 Dr. Amy Albright: Because if I thought I was done or complete, I would need to start over no matter what. And so I just know that there are cycles and seasons, there’s the harvest, and then soon after that winter follows. Right? And so it feels like right now is this great season of being able to bring forth a bounty. But I know that everything is cyclical and so my understanding of all of that is definitely different than when I was like, you know, 26 years old or when I was 18 years old or something like that.
0:16:29 Dr. Amy Albright: Um, yeah, but it’s, it’s a lot. It’s ever continuing down the alignment with. May my expression not be limited by my mind and rather be expanded into the space of my heart’s desire to be able to make, to participate, to co create in massive, massive change and healing for as many people and as many paradigms as possible in this lifetime. Like that is, that is the same prayer. And my capacity to deepen into it feels bigger and it feels really good.
0:17:07 Tansy Rodgers: And so all of this beautiful growth.
0:17:09 Tansy Rodgers: And this beautiful wisdom that you’ve acquired that you just spoke about and now you come into 2025 with your word being alignment. This is a year of transformation. In numerology, this is the year nine. So there is so much rebirth which I don’t care what you’re birthing out child, human being, right. Or a project or a rebirth of yourself. It is hard. And so I would love to know what you’re doing right now to really connect to that alignment, to really embody that and be close to that in this new understanding of what that is.
0:17:51 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah, I would say that it should be hard. And things like birth can be hard. And in my real story of birthing my son, it took 60 hours and it was definitely really hard. It was like 6060 hours of a lot of hard. But one of the things that I’ve learned inside of the construct of what is hard is that ease follows when There is zero resistance. And that if there is pain or if there’s something that is not easeful, that there’s more space for grace and ease.
0:18:21 Dr. Amy Albright: So alignment is the precision for me of simply allowing for the what wants to be to flow through me without me arguing about it. And with me showing up in every moment for that in the fullest of my expression. And so I’m finding it actually greatly relieving. And I am technically working a lot of hours to be able to bring through everything that’s coming through, but actually feels like nothing but relief through my body as it’s happening. It doesn’t feel hard.
0:18:56 Dr. Amy Albright: And I. And I’m tracking the precision of alignment to be able to keep it in that. Yeah.
0:19:05 Tansy Rodgers: That’S beautiful.
0:19:06 Tansy Rodgers: And you know, just having this little.
0:19:09 Tansy Rodgers: Bit of a conversation with you to start this podcast out, I love so much how. Because we’re going to get into all of the techie science stuff here in a moment, but I love how you have this beautiful fusion of scientific and sacred spiritual and placed in reality, or I shouldn’t say reality, because what is reality?
0:19:35 Dr. Amy Albright: Right.
0:19:38 Tansy Rodgers: Placed into our 3D human experience. Let’s just put that. Put it that way. And so I love that connection. I’m curious because you’ve been on this journey since 18, what really drew you to this neurotech, not just as a clinical tool, but as a way to actually expand your consciousness, unlock human potential, take it to where you’re taking it to it. Taking it to here in 20, 25 and beyond.
0:20:10 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah, you know, I think that it goes back to where I was prior to the big banks. And I think that that’s an important part of the story to tell. So when I was about 17, just turning 18 years old, I would have described myself as a complete atheist. So I understand and hold sacred a skeptic in all of us because mine was, and still to some extent, until maybe the more recent years, has been quite strong.
0:20:37 Tansy Rodgers: Right.
0:20:38 Dr. Amy Albright: And so I had this belief that if I studied neurotransmitters and understood the brain, that I could understand human reality. So even as an atheist, I was interested in consciousness. And I was very clear at that young age of 17, 18 years old, that I wanted to study the brain to be able to understand how we were experiencing our reality. So I was enrolled in extremely rigorous academic programs at UC Irvine, which is amazing for neurosciences and for cognitive of psychology, and.
0:21:11 Dr. Amy Albright: And I was in that study when I then went and had my first acupuncture session. Now, just for the record, What I’m about to explain does not explain why I ended up becoming a doctor of Chinese medicine later. Like, it actually has almost nothing to do with it really. But what happened when I was lying on the table was that I was floating and sinking and I was hearing voices, and I knew I was, like, totally sane. It wasn’t scary. It was incredible.
0:21:38 Dr. Amy Albright: It’s like the. The. The veil of illusion had been kind of whisked away and I was tracing out the meridians and I knew and I. And it’s hard to explain these mystical experiences that we can have. I just knew in that moment that there was a God. There was a God, and that no way would science ever be able to explain the totality of what it is that’s actually happening. And those two things, those two realizations changed me forever. And I started to then incorporate. I shifted instead of studying, kind of just like I would have been lined up to go and dissect and do experiments on rats, which was. It was like disturbing me. And I couldn’t get my. I couldn’t get into it. But I was like, but I must, because this is really important for us to know. That was the atheist speaking.
0:22:24 Dr. Amy Albright: And then once this experience happened, I shifted to cognitive psychology, which is the understanding of how brain impacts behavior. And that’s what I did for my major. And I took a huge number of classes in anthropology so that I could understand the human experience through time with a special emphasis on Native American studies. So I started studying in an academic setting, rites of passage and ways of healing by the indigenous people around the world.
0:22:53 Dr. Amy Albright: And I took dance classes and understood kind of the decimation, basically the decimation of the sacred, of the ways of the indigenous people around the world, but especially of the Americas. So I would say that those two things. So I was still very much rooted in, yes, we have a brain that is incredible. And that basically helps us to understand our experience of reality and our experience of ourselves, of.
0:23:18 Dr. Amy Albright: And knowing that consciousness is rooted and to some extent dictated by the brain. Right. But I also knew that this whole other world was quite real. I didn’t put it together that I was anything extraordinary until I started into practice. I literally went all the way through. I had a vision quest experience. For two and a half months. I traveled alone in. In Central America. And then I also ended up back going, you know, going back to school and doing Chinese medicine.
0:23:51 Dr. Amy Albright: The first time around, I didn’t complete the doctorate until it was available later. But through all of that experience, I just thought, I just Had a reverence for the unseen world. And part of the reason that I want to bring that up is that I think it’s so important for people to understand. As it turns out, I am fantastically gifted. Like, not, not as a bragging, I’m just saying, like, it’s actually very true.
0:24:10 Dr. Amy Albright: And my brain is many standard deviations away from normal. And I have all of these gifts and I thought I was a regular person who just had an appreciation. And I want for every, every, everybody to know that intuition and these capacities are not for the chosen few. They are our birthright and that we can be so disconnected. I was in so much pain as an atheist. I was in so much pain for shutting it down. I was in pain for not believing that I belonged or that, or knowing and knowing how that I had my own bridge and access for all of those years between 18 and 26.
0:24:45 Dr. Amy Albright: And then at age 26 when I started my practice, it’s like, it hit me like a, like a ton of bricks and it just all opened up. And because of the, the contrast, it was actually a little uncomfortable at that time. Although I was really witnessing a lot of miraculous things in my practice, it was uncomfortable for me to make that transition internally, especially back, because it was 23 years ago, there wasn’t really anybody to talk to. There wasn’t the Internet, there were hardly any books on it. It was just happening.
0:25:16 Dr. Amy Albright: But yeah, just really being able to recognize the whole way through that we are these mystical multi dimensional beings. We are timeless souls on an endless journey, and that currently a lot of our intelligence and awareness is yoked into a physical body, but that our body is a sacred temple that is a holographic representation of every aspect of our timeless being, including the brain. And so if we can understand the brain and if we can understand ourselves in these ways where we don’t oversimplify and basically cut ourselves off from our own divinity in all the ways that we might express and feel into that divinity, then, you know, if we can really come into that, then we unlock our capacity, we unlock our empowerment, we unlock our, our joy, our aliveness.
0:26:04 Dr. Amy Albright: And we can then really interact with each other in a magnificently different way. You know, as, as individuals working inside of a collective in a way that’s awake and aware and to your point, incredibly grounded and practical. Because who it is that I’ve been focused on working with isn’t just the everyday folks. In this last 15 or 17 years, I’ve been working with leaders that are running massive organizations and they also have kids, and they also, you know, like, whatever their things are.
0:26:32 Dr. Amy Albright: So there’s nothing about what it is that I’m describing that will lend somebody to just kind of, like, forgetting, moving away from their family and moving to the ashram and to just meditate and pray and, like, forget the rest of the world. Like, there’s. It’s an absolute integrated path in my. In my life, but also in the ways that it comes through the. Let’s say the medicine that comes through me. Not talking about plant medicine, because I.
0:26:56 Dr. Amy Albright: We don’t serve plant medicine with Holan, but just speaking to the medicine that comes through me. The medicine that comes through you. We each carry something that is so beautiful and that, for me, is always grounded inside of practical and mystical, quantifiable and magical, like, all. All at once.
0:27:16 Tansy Rodgers: Yeah, you emphasize something that I want to emphasize for the listeners. You emphasize that you knew that you had gifts, but you didn’t know how expansive it was. You didn’t know how special you were. You didn’t realize what you are truly capable of. And you also said that these gifts are our birthrights, that most people just don’t realize the depth of which they can expand their consciousness, that they can expand these gifts and work with them in such a personal and unique way from person to person. And so I want to unpack that just a bit deeper, and I want to expand into talking a little bit more about this consciousness when we talk about iq, eq, pq, sq, which are cognitive, emotional, physical, and spiritual intelligence.
0:28:21 Tansy Rodgers: It’s such a powerful model. It’s such a powerful way to really connect in and to expand.
0:28:31 Tansy Rodgers: And so I would love for you.
0:28:33 Tansy Rodgers: To talk about how these intelligences, because I will also say too, is that most of us don’t even realize that we have more than just the cognitive intelligence. Most of us don’t realize that there is so much more lying below the surface, just ready to be worked with, to be held, to be seen. And so I would love for you to talk about these intelligences, how they work together and what happens when they start to become out of sync and we aren’t really utilizing them to our greatest capacity.
0:29:07 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah, yeah. I mean, the way that we are programmed inside of current modern society is to be about, like, the intellect, the iq, the rational, the logical, the linear, that which is studied, and then we can regurgitate. Right. That which is tangible enough that we can touch it and explain it with, like, ordinary words instead of the ordinary construct. But there are so many dimensions to reality. And I Feel like that that is this fundamental structure of us over emphasizing the intellect or these types of aspects that I just named are a huge amount of why we have disconnection from sense of self and the interconnectedness of all things.
0:29:52 Dr. Amy Albright: Because the rational brain cannot possibly, your rational brain cannot understand the circumference of Jupiter. And yet we can look at that number and think that we understand it. It’s just like not even possible. How does the rational brain actually grok what infinity is? Timelessness? How does it grok the number of blades of grass in the entire world? There’s like no, there is no way. And so there’s. Because we are those timeless souls on an endless journey. If we put the lens of it’s what our intellect thinks.
0:30:23 Dr. Amy Albright: And so then the intellect is also skewed by schemas like these frameworks. And in our cognition of like who we think we are, what we think is possible, our perception of our past, our perception of our past is actually then filtered also through what our parents thought of us or what, you know, like all of these kind of things, right? So we basically isolate inside of this very logic dominant way of being and disenfranchise or like completely discount everything else.
0:30:54 Dr. Amy Albright: So much of who we are exists inside of subtle worlds. It exists inside of subtle moments. Like the moment of creation of the two of us sitting together in presence is something that if we’re too much in our intellect, we don’t even have. And then we end up talking about the weather or you know, whatever, right? Like as the main topic. So the ability to be able to drop into the present moment with one another actually requires that we be inside of that eq, that emotional intelligence, the spiritual intelligences, the be able to be able to know ourselves and to be comfortable outside of the space of the intellect and in the space of the present moment. And most people are really afraid of the present moment.
0:31:37 Dr. Amy Albright: Most people I would say are really afraid of feeling, of being fully present and there. And that shows, it shows how much fear driven there is because there is a perpetual hamster wheel that makes people have a hard time knowing how to hold still, knowing how to have deeper conversations. Like why would we wait till our deathbed to tell people the things that we actually feel? Why not every day? Why not be alive right now, right?
0:32:04 Dr. Amy Albright: And bring everything into that fullness and know that no matter what, even if we were to bucket things according to these other innate types of intelligence, that maybe there’s this omni intelligence and maybe it’s like an absolute or an omni intelligence that goes beyond the concept of what we’ll ever be able to know of ourselves anyways. Right? So going back to that Big Bang moment, it’s like I knew there was a God and I knew that science would never explain all of this.
0:32:34 Dr. Amy Albright: And if we know about ourselves that we are God and that there’s nothing that will ever explain all of us as individual aspects and, and frames of God, then now we start to move into a more accurate and realistic point of view. However, usually where most people are at is I’m not a part of any of that. I don’t belong. There’s nothing special about me. I’m going to take care of everybody else and martyr myself.
0:33:01 Dr. Amy Albright: I’m not because I’m not good enough. I have to prove myself by being the perfect whatever, whatever, earning a certain amount of money, looking a certain way. Like these are all, you know, they’re fabrications, they’re lies, they’re illusions and they can be quite tricky and difficult to get out of. Especially if we’re working at the level of symptomology. If we’re looking at like I, in a psychological based framework want to think through my thinking, it can just create more mirrors inside of the fun house of reality versus if we can step out of all of those constructs and into something that’s more powerful and more broad.
0:33:37 Dr. Amy Albright: Now we really have the ability to change and reframe. Some people might do this through working with plant medicine. There’s incredible capacity, for instance of psilocybin and some of the other medicines to change how the default mode network is working. The default mode network is the part of us that thinks that we know who we are in addition to some other things. Right. One other way to do it is through neurosciences.
0:34:01 Dr. Amy Albright: Another way to do it is to just every day remind yourself that we’re living inside of a dream or that this, like that we, that we are living potent miracles and that every, every reframe of every moment is, you know, stepping into that. There’s, there’s maybe countless numbers of ways. There’s a, there’s a breath practice that’s available on my, that helps people to step out of linear, logical, open up their energy body so that they can actually through their auric field, feel the connection of all that is, be replenished by the all that is, feel the connection to Mother Earth and be replenished by her and incorporate her wisdom into their body and being in a very practical, tangible way.
0:34:44 Dr. Amy Albright: Right. So that’s another great tool. But Ultimately, if we keep on plodding along instead of those same lies and illusions, we’re going to probably end up with those same results. And I think that right now, 20, 25, in so many ways, like you said, it’s a numerology nine year, we’re being asked to step into a new way and we can do it with suffering, you know, or we can do it with ease. It’s really, we don’t have choice here at that level. Right. Like agency is about how we navigate.
0:35:14 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah.
0:35:14 Tansy Rodgers: And like you said in the beginning, ease follows with the lack of resistance. And so yeah, you’re gonna either you’re being asked, but I think it’s going to happen regardless if you choose to go into it easeful or kicking and screaming, you’re still gonna have the change. Right.
0:35:35 Tansy Rodgers: Okay, so we’re talking all about biohacking the brain and upcoming grading our inner software. But can we talk about your hardware for a second? Because your external environment, like your air, your walls, your everyday surfaces, they might be holding on to more energetic and microbial junk than you realize. And man, I just don’t think people understand how important this is for your health because I mean there is no amount of neurotech that is going to integrate well if your space is low key, stressing out your immune system, it just isn’t.
0:36:15 Tansy Rodgers: This is why I love Super Stratum so much. It’s the next generation surface protectant that shields your space from mold, mycotoxins, bacteria and microbial buildup without the toxic chemicals. Chemicals that is key here. Just one treatment can create a long lasting breathable barrier that keeps your sacred space actually clean and energetically aligned. If this is resonating with you, if you even have a suspicion that you might have some mold, if you aren’t sure and you want to get it tested out just to make sure you’re good, or if you do, you can then take care of the situation.
0:36:58 Tansy Rodgers: Then head down to the show notes and grab your Super Stratum link. Click on that link and order up some products to get yourself in the know and protected. Start protecting your energy from the ground and the surfaces up. It is that important.
0:37:18 Tansy Rodgers: And so I love how you explained how all of those intelligences fused together. But I am curious because there is a lot of resistance when, especially when it’s something that maybe it’s hard to wrap the brain around or to even open up the heart to accepting that that is a possibility for yourself. So how are you helping people to understand and really connect deeper to These intelligence that you are talking about?
0:37:49 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah, I mean, a lot of it comes through the body and a lot of it is, you know, how does the body feel? How are we tracking our bodies? Are we listening to it? Are we taking good care of it? Are we nourishing it in those right ways with the right kinds of food? A lot of people eat really crappy diets and then want to involve. It’s like, well, if you take some really low octane or diesel fuel and you pour it into a sports car, you’re not going to get great performance.
0:38:13 Dr. Amy Albright: Sorry. It’s just like there are certain things that we just can’t bypass. So, you know, grounding everything into our physicality. I think that a lot of the teachings about spiritual path in the past have made the body feel like a wrapper that is disposable. And I would say that that’s like talking about a church, that we could just burn it because it doesn’t matter. Like, this is a sacred temple and your body. And I say this as somebody that has struggled quite a lot with health stuff.
0:38:40 Dr. Amy Albright: I think most, I think a lot of people who have the capacity to walk between worlds do. But I could say that even with that, I have recognized for so long that if my body is giving me a symptom, whether that’s a tightness or a digestive issue or, you know, some of these big disease labels that I’ve worked myself through and gotten to the other side of that those are always my body serving me, not my body failing me or misbehaving. And I am not having a deficit of a certain medication.
0:39:11 Dr. Amy Albright: And it’s not even. And I, I prescribe supplements. It’s not that I’m having necessarily a, A, a lack of a certain nutrition. And I am not saying that I don’t believe that people should take medications or not take supplements, but that the fundamental to the fundamental is. Listen to what it is that the body is speaking to. Because the sp. The body is serving the spiritual or emotional capacities that are not being fully expressed, that aren’t being touched or resolved, that are wanting to come through.
0:39:41 Dr. Amy Albright: And so our body holds this magnificent information for us, both inside of how we’re doing with health, but also how we’re feeling in every moment. Are we tracking the micro tension inside of the solar plexus when we’re having a moment of insecurity? Right. Like, how are we, how rooted is the energy through our legs and down into the feet to the earth right now? You know, and how do we take care of that and not just having it be like the talk of chakras, but actually how does it feel in my body and attending to the level of the body. So that’s a very, very important and foundational one.
0:40:21 Dr. Amy Albright: But I would say that for the most part my main role honestly is to get people out of their mind. And as long as they’re out of their mind, then everything’s tracking in the right direction. And doing that requires that I, that we, any of us that work inside of a healership capacity in any regard, you know, co creating healing like that, our work is then to create a safety of container. So my work isn’t to ignore the skeptic or to ask the skeptic to step aside. My role is to make that part of that person feel safe so that we can suspend the disbelief so that the, the amazingness, like basically the spontaneous healing can come rushing in.
0:41:04 Dr. Amy Albright: And then once that has happened to be able to bring people through some sort of cognitive level of understanding so that their, their skeptic or their mind doesn’t derail the process after the fact and make it not real. I feel like as a part of my process and of what I’ve seen for other people, we actually can witness and co create so many miracles and then we have amnesia because the mind doesn’t know what to do with it.
0:41:31 Dr. Amy Albright: You’ve had this too? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. So you know, how do we create a big enough framing so that the mind has its place to relax? And ultimately I think a lot of what the skeptic wants to know or is taking care of is am I going to die? If I believe in this, will some part of me die? Will my belief structure have to die or will I die physically? And I think that a lot of people have a lot of wounding past lives or this life about. If I don’t belong to the conventional way of talking, acting and being, I might get kicked out of tribe.
0:42:08 Dr. Amy Albright: And that’s a first chakra offense. Getting kicked out of tribe means death historically for us epigenetically. So there can sometimes be quite a lot of deep fear that might not be conscious. For someone that’s creating a push pull inside of their evolution that looks like that they’re just coming up with the level of the mind, but it’s actually the furthest thing from it. Right like that, that conscious awareness is up here in the head.
0:42:34 Dr. Amy Albright: And the thing that can be driving is the depths of primitive and mammal fear down in our root. So I would say it’s a lot about taking care of that. That primal mammal. And within that, it’s also just asking people, so do you feel more. Do you feel more of a sense of love and commitment to the illusion, or do you feel more of a love and commitment to the truth and to freedom? And what are you willing to risk?
0:43:02 Dr. Amy Albright: Are you willing to risk, you know, changing your relationships with family members or needing to reposition yourself inside of how you express yourself with work or, you know, and if you’re not, it’s okay. But is. Is where you’re at right now working for you, or are you having a lot of suffering? And is the belief structure that maybe you would have more suffering if you change things? Is that accurate?
0:43:24 Dr. Amy Albright: Is that really what’s true? You know, and being able to just get people to. To shift through that and come into a place of safety. So one of the ways that we do that is through neurological safety, like, really just literally changing how people’s brains work on an electrical level in real time. Because a lot of the times what we’re doing is replaying traumas of the past, and we’re working with neural architecture, like, let’s say, the actual wiring of the brain doesn’t have enough wires in a certain area to be able to have the sense of safety.
0:43:53 Dr. Amy Albright: And people can get there slowly over time with belief structures and prayer and meditation. I 100% believe that we can’t skip those things, But I also believe that we can make a process faster and easier if we have these very specific and targeted ways to be able to impact how the brain is functioning so that it works with the desire of the person, the alignment of the person, and then we just get them to that place where they feel comfortable and confident and have new capacities with a lot of ease.
0:44:23 Tansy Rodgers: There’s so much I want to say to this, so much I want to say. Before we go, before we expand into what you just talked about, I want to just go back a moment, and I want to really emphasize that your brain and your body are going to energetically express what it needs and where it’s deficit. And so as you start to see this need to shift and rewire that brain in whatever capacity you decide to do that with, be it brain tech, be it plant medicine or whatever other modalities you use, the first place, it feels like, is really just stepping back and listening to what the body and the brain are actually saying.
0:45:02 Tansy Rodgers: You know, these moments of anxiety starting to ripple up. Well, where’s that coming from? Is it even conscious? Right. I also think that it’s important to emphasize here that your body and brain have to energetically hold more when you open to a deeper level and you allow yourself to walk between worlds, to hold a bigger space. Because once you do that, once you connect into this spiritual, this emotional intelligence, all of a sudden you’re opening yourself up to being able or needing to expand energetically so you can hold more.
0:45:44 Tansy Rodgers: And your body is going to absolutely show you where you’re not expanded enough.
0:45:53 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah, totally.
0:45:54 Tansy Rodgers: Yeah.
0:45:55 Dr. Amy Albright: And it can feel like old anxiety. It can feel like stuff that doesn’t make sense. It could feel like projections on whoever it is or whatever it is that’s in front of you. You know, sometimes people get lost inside of that, but it also can be signaling you in fairness, like, hey, this person that I’m working with, this is like a weird cult situation or like, you know, whatever. Right. Like, there’s also that out there.
0:46:20 Dr. Amy Albright: So can. Can we ask our bodies to show us the where and the who is safe to be doing these things with? And also to show us where, you know, we just have fear that’s unrelated. And then can we ask it to show us, you know, where. Where it’s warranted. And we do need to just go ahead and get out of the room. I’ve been in a room with somebody channeling, and I’m like, I can’t be in the room right now. This has got.
0:46:44 Dr. Amy Albright: There’s some dark energy coming through. I don’t want to have anything to do with it. Am I afraid of channeling? No, not at all. You know, but it was like just the wisdom to know that that wasn’t the space for me, but the ability to hold steady inside of oneself in a way that is truthful. And it becomes easier over time to know what is projection or refraction and what is actually really, really true.
0:47:08 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah, but I love that. Yeah, it’s true. Our body does know. We know. Again, innate, innate birthright capacities are all right there.
0:47:18 Tansy Rodgers: Yeah, yeah. And as your body starts to talk to you in whatever way it’s talking, and you treat it, you heal it, you give it the medicines that it needs. Maybe it’s the nutrition or the body movement or the meditation or the prayer, but also then it’s about shifting the way that your brain is responding. Right. And so you’ve mentioned a few times now about plant medicine. I personally, my and. And acquaintances of mine have had some profound experiences through the use of plant medicine. So I’m curious if you’re taking out that piece of it and you’re using a brain tech to come in and rewire.
0:48:01 Tansy Rodgers: Can we talk about what that experience is like and how that is shifting, maybe even mimicking a plant medicine in a different capacity?
0:48:13 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah, yeah, absolutely. I mean, I think that plant medicines are fantastic and they have their place and they’re totally not for everyone. And even for those that have sat with the medicines a lot, there is always a place to work directly with the brain. The brain work is extremely specific, especially as we practice it. And if we invite the brain into certain coherent states where it’s communicating with itself, where it’s building waves in one area of the brain and moving them to another, where there’s not a lot of interference, patterns of overthinking, like if basically we, we can speak directly to the brain about how it’s functioning with neurofeedback therapy and, and I can explain that more in a moment, but that when we ask the brain to basically be in that concert or that symphony state as its most cape, you know, at that highest cap capacity that it has, what ends up happening is, you know, the cascade of things that could very much look and feel like a plant medicine journey.
0:49:13 Dr. Amy Albright: And it’s beautiful to not have to consume anything exogenous to be able to have that happen. And it’s much safer for those that are worried about safety or, you know, like with neurofeedback therapy, if you don’t like it, we can like basically turn the thing off and then, you know, 30 seconds later or whatever, you’re like, whoop, you know, that’s much better. We don’t have that happen. But it exists as a possibility. People love when they’re with us, what they’re, what they’re experiencing.
0:49:40 Dr. Amy Albright: But it could be everything from body sensations to full clear pieces of knowing to recollecting past experiences whether they’re beautiful and full of gratitude and love or whether they are actually old traumas that they had forgotten. But even with the old traumas that they’ve forgotten, there’s a natural anesthetic that is kind of present. And so, you know, somebody might have actually a repressed, massively traumatic experience come up and they’re, they’re having some emotional charge, but it doesn’t go past the thresholds of comfort, if that makes sense, you know, so it’s, it’s fantastic in that regard. Some of the folks that we work with have full blown clairvoyant waking dream experiences that last for minutes and, or for an hour at a time, depending on the person, depending on kind of their natural Inkling. Some people are, you know, having more of like a body relaxation.
0:50:36 Dr. Amy Albright: You know, sometimes there’s a sense of something tightening in one area of the body and then it just like, almost like it pops. Which I know is kind of a funny way to describe it, but the, the body feeling of like a release valve just releasing and then a wash of beautiful sensation and emotion. And with a lot of this there’s a characteristic of wisdom and the wisdom transcends the thought. It’s, it’s more at the level of like, oh, I thought I was bad and they were good and the situation was bad and that, this, that, you know, and then they are able to not just in a, like paint a coat of happy. I’m a spiritual person, I’m going to have a spiritual point of view in my cognition about this. But in their body they actually can hold the shadow and the light and have a full and total understanding of it in a way that they couldn’t have achieved without that neurological support to come into that alignment.
0:51:36 Dr. Amy Albright: So it’s, you know, it could be characterized by gamma, which is a certain brainwave that’s actually formed as a field effect on top of other brain waves. And it’s a, it’s a pinnacle brainwave that we’re not in for, you know, constantly per se, but that when it comes up it puts worlds together and it has things slide into place in a certain way that is just so amazing. And we all, not everybody, but most people have gamma happening all the time.
0:52:04 Dr. Amy Albright: Like little bits here and there. Those are those little aha moments. But when we can get the, the fullness of gamma up by building the beautiful architecture of everything else that goes in to the layering to create that when it’s there long enough and in these ways it can create these massive, massive understandings whilst also with these other deeper waves like the alpha and theta waves, or just clearing and cleaning out some of the fear centers of the brain like the cerebellum and the amygdala, which there are two amygdala by the way.
0:52:35 Dr. Amy Albright: When we clear out those areas we’ve actually dumped out huge amounts of subconscious pain that we don’t ever have to understand. So it’s, it is incredible what exists in the brain and how capable we are of hitting these transcendent states. Right. These mystical states, the having visions without having to imbibe in any substance at all.
0:52:57 Tansy Rodgers: Yeah, so this is fascinating to me because so I used to work in physical therapy full time and have lots of acute injury therapy experience and so I’ve always seen neurofeedback therapy to be more for repair, more for injuries, more for anxiety or like shifting the brain to repair a situation. And so you speaking about expansion, I find fascinating because I never thought that you could use it for expanding consciousness, expanding evolution of you.
0:53:40 Tansy Rodgers: And so this is really fascinating to me.
0:53:43 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah, I would say that almost everybody, if not pretty much everybody in the field of neurosciences, applied neurosciences of neurofeedback therapy, is treating pathology. So the majority of research that’s being done, neurofeedback therapy has been around since the 1960s. The majority of the research and the ways that it’s applied clinically are for pathology like adhd, depression, sleep problems, schizophrenia, epilepsy, you know, that kind of a thing, stroke, recovery.
0:54:12 Dr. Amy Albright: And it is amazing for those things, no doubt. But for my colleague and I, Dr. Drew Pearson is the real neuroscientist of the team. And he and I both look at what is possible. We are aspirational. It’s like, oh, we have this person and yeah, they’re high functioning, but they also have a little sleep thing. And they tend to be a little, like, they can get a little wound up and be a little neurotic, like, don’t know how to slow down.
0:54:36 Dr. Amy Albright: But look at all these beautiful goals that they have and look at this intuitive being that they are. Look at this beautiful expression of love that they are. And so what is actually possible for that person? And maybe they come in asking for certain things, right? Like they say, I want my intuition to be stronger. I want to, I want to develop clairvoyance. We can definitely work on those things, but we can also just have them have better leadership skills or better relationship skills, right? Which is its own. It’s that emotional intelligence which lends to the spiritual intelligence or is kind of the same thing as the spiritual intelligence. Because they begin to navigate the world from a point of view of there’s not resistance, there’s not a fight, they’re not waiting for the shoe to fall. They’re not reactive, they’re expanded, present, calm, loving, and in their wisdom.
0:55:26 Dr. Amy Albright: And this to us is why we, that’s the focus that we have, is like, how do we bring more people into wisdom? How do we bring more people into leadership? If we’re just looking to remediate problems, we’re not actually stretching out into the what’s possible not for the individual and not for the collective.
0:55:43 Tansy Rodgers: As soon as you said that about bringing people into their leadership, all I could think about was this Evolution that humanity is on, right? Like this change this up, leveling this. Some people throw around the word ascension, right? And this 5D reality that we are changing into this new dimension. And so you speaking these words I find so fascinating because you’re using this technology, this tool, to actually help accelerate perhaps the. The ascension process, the moving into this new dimension, this beautiful.
0:56:20 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah, totally, for. For the individual and then everybody that. That individual touches. Because what we know too, is that if there’s a person who is in a high level of neurological coherence, that that coherence impacts other people’s state in a really profound way, whether it’s in real time, sitting together, whether it’s through their writing, you know, maybe their email, they’re sending out messages to their team. Their state of coherence is now changing everything as they’re walking down the street as if they’re at the grocery store, right?
0:56:50 Dr. Amy Albright: We are that light being. We are that. That pillar of light. We are that possibility, that walking miracle that can create a trail of miracles in our wake. And that actually all maps to the brain, right? And so if, basically, if we can take care of the brain, and I mean, every day, again, coming back to the not so sexy parts, like, please stop eating poison, everyone, because your brain is very much impacted, you know, and also the other organs. But ultimately, if we. If we are not taking good care of ourselves neurologically, we’re actually restricting our consciousness.
0:57:27 Dr. Amy Albright: So when we’re eating foods that have, you know, known carcinogens, which there’s a huge amount of food and sold in the United States, that’s not even food, okay? It’s things that people put in their mouth to eat that is not even of the earth anymore. And it’s so chemically modified, whatever it is, it is not food. And that poison that we put in is actually dampening our consciousness. It is clogging up the mechanisms. Like I was saying earlier, diesel fuel inside of a sports car, right?
0:57:55 Dr. Amy Albright: And so when we have this desire to stretch and grow in reach, we really do want to do everything that we can to support that in the most beautiful ways. Because without that, that we’re actually limiting consciousness. And. And then how that works is we don’t even realize we have option, right? Like if you’ve seen somebody have brain damage from mold or something like that, they have a hard time thinking to be able to take good care of themselves.
0:58:21 Dr. Amy Albright: And that’s essentially where we all can be. That’s another way of understanding not that we have brain damage, but whatever level of Consciousness we’re in, in this moment, we can’t quite see the what’s beyond until we have evolved or ascended to that place. And that ascension is always multifactorial, including the desire, the passion for it internally, including the way we take care of our bodies, including the ways that we interact with ourselves and each other.
0:58:48 Dr. Amy Albright: You know, there’s. There’s just an endless ways, a number of ways. And the more that we engage in that, with the fullness of our passion and devotion in these paths that we walk down, you know, as individuals and together, the easier it is to become then more and more aware. And without that awareness, without that consciousness or the ascension process, we are, you know, we’re. We’re basically facing kind of like a turning point for all of humanity.
0:59:12 Dr. Amy Albright: I would say probably the next five or so years is going to dictate, you know, our survival as a species. And so right now is the time. Like, right now is the time. It’s. Let’s not put taking care of ourselves on our to do list and push it off till later and, or, or also put on the to do list. Like, this is. Oh, this spiritual stuff and like my, my interest and all of this, that’s just my hobby. It’s something I like to think about in my free time.
0:59:42 Dr. Amy Albright: It’s like, no, this is our birthright, like we’ve been saying, and it’s also a necessity right now. AI is moving really fast, right? Everything in the world is changing. There’s a huge amount of societal structures that are crumbling. There’s a lot of darkness that’s showing itself. And I don’t mean to paint this as a negative picture. The old must die in order for something new to be born. But in the process, we have to actually allow ourselves to be born because we are working within will.
1:00:09 Dr. Amy Albright: We are working within free will that can say, no, I’d rather stay where I’m at, you know, and not understand that it’s a limited place and perspective that we’re in and not understand that we’re basically choosing suffering versus not suffering. So having the courage to be inside of that empowered choice, having the courage to stretch out into that which we don’t know. There is always something that we don’t know. I am still learning. I love that about this journey. 32 years in, you know, I’m told you I’m in kind of a culmination year, and I’m like, yes, there’s. There’s so many things that I feel like I understand.
1:00:41 Dr. Amy Albright: And what I mostly understand is that we can’t possibly understand. And my. Okay, Ness. Like my. The, the delight that that brings rather than a feeling of discomfort. Right. Because we can still navigate as senses, like having a sense of mastery inside of the place of knowing that we don’t know.
1:01:01 Tansy Rodgers: And it’s also exciting. There’s so much shifting and changing. Very exciting.
1:01:06 Tansy Rodgers: Very exciting.
1:01:08 Tansy Rodgers: You know, on a side note, I saw a video the other day about how they make McDonald’s Chicken McNuggets. I was horrified. Side note. Anyway, yeah. So really fixating and focusing on the foods that you’re feeding your body will directly affect your brain. And I bring up that video that I saw because you don’t always know what you think is food. You don’t always know what is in it and, and, and what you’re actually consuming. So.
1:01:41 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah, totally. Even down to bubbly waters. You know, a lot of those brands of bubbly waters, it seems innocuous. I’m drinking a can of bubbly water. But it says natural flavors. That’s a lie. The stuff they call natural flavors has nothing to do with flavors. And if there’s zero calories and it has that much flavor, we can just know that. I mean, I have friends and clients in the CPG in the beverage industry. They’re like, you don’t even want to know what’s in those. So it’s really tracking it down and really being clear. Like maybe, you know, for me, I like to make an herbal infused. Like I put mint inside of a pitcher of water and it stays fresh for like 10 days.
1:02:17 Dr. Amy Albright: And I just keep putting water in it. And then I’m drinking mint, which is so high vibe and so delicious. And I know exactly what’s in my water. It’s organic mint and water. Right. And it doesn’t have. Right. So it’s the tricky. Some of those tricky things, it’s not just theoretically impacting the brain. It is directly causing neural inflammation. Right. Like this isn’t. I know. Sometimes it can feel like an abstraction. And without getting into all the biochemistry or neurochemistry, let’s just say that it impacts us in very real ways, like putting sludge inside of these beautiful, you know, the beautiful equipment of our. Of our physical form, our vessels.
1:02:56 Tansy Rodgers: So you’re listening to Dr. Amy talk all about next level brain performance, sacred tech, and accessing your highest human potential. But maybe your nervous system is still in just trying to keep it together kind of mode. You’re upgrading your mindset, but your body didn’t get the memo yet. And that’s where my crystal energy healing sessions come in. These sessions help you drop out of the noise and into your body, helping you to clear stuck energy, regulating your nervous system, anchoring in the frequencies that you actually want to live in.
1:03:33 Tansy Rodgers: So whether you’re navigating burnout or emotional heaviness, or you’re just craving a reset, this is sacred integration for your mind, your body and your soul. And the best part is that these sessions can be done anywhere at any time. You can do them distance, but if you live in my local area, then you can come on over to my studio and do an in person session as well. Head down to the show notes and click on tansyrogers.com to learn more.
1:04:04 Tansy Rodgers: Or you can reach out to me directly and ask me any questions and get yourself scheduled on the books. I would love to have a session with you to help you navigate through your health and wellness journey and to help you step up and step in to that next evolution of you.
1:04:23 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah, yeah.
1:04:24 Tansy Rodgers: And, you know, we talk about this ripple effect and how simply shifting your own awareness, shifting your resistance, will ripple out to those around you naturally without you having to do anything else. And this includes the foods that you’re eating, because the foods you’re eating are changing your energy, your energetic vibration, your frequency. And so as you shift that, it then will ripple out and help to change others. So not only are we shifting and changing our own inner worlds, including with this brain tech and the other healing modalities that we’re using, but we’re also then creating change in other people not even consciously aware of that. Right.
1:05:11 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah.
1:05:12 Tansy Rodgers: And so I’m curious, Dr. Amy.
1:05:17 Tansy Rodgers: When.
1:05:17 Tansy Rodgers: You start to push past some of this resistance, when you start to open up and you allow yourself to deeper levels of clarity, how does the brain tech, the neuro, the neurofeedback therapy, how does this help you to really shift out of the. The. How does it help you shift out of the resistance that naturally your brain might be creating at any given moment to then shift past that to heal? I mean, you can talk about it from a scientific level or you can talk about it in any way that you feel necessary, But I’m just curious, if somebody is in that resistance stage, how is this modality helping to push past that and ultimately heal for the longer term?
1:06:10 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah. A lot of the times those resistances come from very, very primitive mammal structures in the brain. So safety and survival. A lot of the origin of that will be from the cerebellum, for instance. The cerebellum then Gives its information to the amygdala. The amygdala. There’s two of them, have a lot of jobs of figuring out where threat detection is. And then we have the insula. It’s like there’s a whole network of things going on that could be just giving us false signals that we aren’t safe when we actually are.
1:06:40 Dr. Amy Albright: You know, if we have a sense of panic that comes up, for instance, about the idea of holding still or taking a day off, we know we’re an illusion, right? Like it just to ground it into something real, like, oh, no, I couldn’t possibly, you know, take a nap and read a book and go for a walk. You know, like that kind of a thing, right? That’s. That. That definitely shows that we’ve got some, some illusion, but also some neurological misfirings. Because the panic that’s coming up in that case, it’s like, oh, it’s so good for you. That actually isn’t going to hurt you. So let’s go ahead and have you do the thing that’s terrifying because you won’t actually die from having taken a day of rest.
1:07:18 Dr. Amy Albright: So anyway, what we do in the brain is we work with the. The mammal type structures, those like really old neurological str us, you know, that we have in common with so many of the mammals and, and just have them learn to calm down, learn to send different signals, wire in for more intricate and interconnected pathways with each other. The cerebellum has more neurons than the entire brain combined. We don’t know why, but I would say it’s probably really important.
1:07:48 Dr. Amy Albright: And we know that it is the. It’s a lot of the origin of addiction. And that wouldn’t just include in my mind alcohol, which a lot of the studies have pointed to too, but the addiction of being neurotic, of being a workaholic, of being inside, of illusion. So we can immediately, you know, we can just go in and have those areas with neurofeedback therapy. But what it is on a very basic level, just so everybody’s on the same page, there’s sensors. So there’s nothing going into the brain. There’s sensors measuring what’s happening electrically in the brain.
1:08:21 Dr. Amy Albright: Those sensors are basically then gathering all this information and putting it into what’s called an eeg, an electrical study of the brain. So we can take a really in depth snapshot and assess, like what’s going on in there. And it’s a little bit like having your astrology chart read. People are like, whoa, how did you know that much about me? And it’s like really detailed. Oh, you tend to think too much but it’s about yourself, not about how others are doing.
1:08:45 Dr. Amy Albright: You’re extremely self critical and you have a mother wound and you also have a propensity towards the ability to do healing transmissions via your hands. I mean it’s like, like and this is my colleague interpreting. I don’t know how to interpret it at that level. He’s teaching me and I’m definitely still a student but, but anyway, so we get all of this information and, and it’s very extremely detailed. So there’s a lot of people that pretend to do neurosciences and they don’t really know much about the brain or that do very light versions of neurofeedback therapy. We’re using the most advanced hardware and software in the world. Sometimes research institutes don’t even have what we have.
1:09:20 Dr. Amy Albright: And then my colleagues ability to interpret that data along the lines of not just looking for pathology but for looking for wisdom, consciousness and intuitive gifts. It’s phenomenal. So we take all of that data from the EEG and then a neurofeedback therapy session is actually real time eeg. So the information being sensed electrically in the brain, going to the computer, being fed back to the brain faster than the mind can understand.
1:09:44 Dr. Amy Albright: And this is a really important thing and I think that it’s like a little bit of Buddhism. So I’ll just pause in this moment. So we think we’re really smart and we are, right. We have IQs again, that type of intelligence where we’re like oh it’s me and it’s my brain and I’m going to figure it out and I’m going to do the thing. But what’s true is that the all that is is far more incredible in its vast understanding nature and her ways. You know, the, the all that is of all of the, the helpers and the, and the guides and all the dimensions.
1:10:13 Dr. Amy Albright: Okay, well our brain is actually connected to those directly is my theory. It’s my feeling the whole way through all these decades. So what we see is that the, the information goes from the brain into the computer and then it’s fed back to the brain. And the brain is making decisions. It wants to get the sights or the sounds because we basically are feeding back either on a screen with sound or just with sound with no screen.
1:10:37 Dr. Amy Albright: How the brain is doing back to itself. But the brain is interpreting and receiving that information at 40 milliseconds. The mind is making judgments at 400 milliseconds, the mind is like, oh, if I breathe through my chakras then, and I like think about my dog, I can make it do something. And we’re like, no, stop it, you’re making it worse. Like you just need to relax and let your brain do its divine intelligence with this feedback system that is just going to bypass all of your over rationalization, over efforting, you know. So this is the very like deep, I think Buddhist teaching of like non attachment.
1:11:20 Dr. Amy Albright: Right. You desire to hear the sounds and then, or see the thing on the screen and then your brain and the computer have a conversation of which you’re basically a witness to. You just hold steady inside of your desire, but without attachment because if you get attached, it won’t work as well and your brain won’t have as much opportunity to learn. Right. So that I think that is like just such a fascinating part of, of the work of how the brain works and how neurofeedback works.
1:11:48 Tansy Rodgers: Yeah, yeah, it is amazing. Now is this something that you do in your clinic or can you do this virtually or like how, how do you run sessions?
1:12:01 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah, so for the about 10 times a year we offer three people at a time. So it’s a very low volume of people coming through to come to our retreat center here in Northern California and do an intensive. So we run those from a Thursday to a Monday. We get massive neurological change during that time. We get massive spiritual growth during that time. It’s not just a laboratory. I am the lead facilitator and magic maker of it.
1:12:30 Dr. Amy Albright: And so it’s brain, but it’s also soul level work essentially. So we do that with about 30 people or less a year. Sometimes people will repeat and come back through for another level of depth of learning and evolution. And then once they’ve gone through that program, they can do remote work so my colleague can send them home with equipment if they wanted to be able to continue ongoingly. We don’t offer like a normal clinical practice because we’re focused on the things that we’re focused on. There are many different projects and aspects to what it is that we’re doing behind the scenes.
1:13:08 Dr. Amy Albright: But neurofeedback therapy is available in, you know, other towns and places. There are ways to find really qualified practitioners. Most of them aren’t probably going to work inside of the space of consciousness. That’s the part that’s tricky, is that a lot of them will help you with your sleep problem but not know how to help bridge the gateways. There’s also Neurofeedback therapy available. So my colleague did design a headset 13 years ago when I was first meeting him.
1:13:35 Dr. Amy Albright: When neurosciences came back very strongly into my field and into my daily work. By working alongside of him I realized like wow, this is something that has to get out there and it is so expensive even to go see a clinic. You know if like Your initial appointment’s $800 and follow ups are 150 and you need like 30 sessions to be able to get whatever. In a normal clinical setting we get much more done because we do it in an intensive format. But anyways it can be very expensive and there are a lot of families or individuals that cannot afford that.
1:14:07 Dr. Amy Albright: So I basically put out a plea like we have to figure out a way to make this affordable because this medicine needs to be brought to so many more people and safely and effectively. Because a lot of those clinicians honestly are trained in a weekend workshop and we should not be letting anybody touch our brain that doesn’t really, really, really know what they’re doing. Please. So anyways, he developed in the last several years this headset that I do feel like is applicable for a lot of people. There are contraindications and I’m not able to give medical advice to people I haven’t met. So listeners please read all of the fine print and decide if it’s right for you.
1:14:47 Dr. Amy Albright: But there’s a headset called Sensei, like the Japanese teacher and I’ll give you the website later for you to put it in the notes. And people can safely and effectively work with their alpha, with their connection to their body. They can train their HRV which is their heart rate variability, which is tied to expansion of love and consciousness and also cardiovascular health, stress reduction. And then there’s also lights that can go directly into the brain like basically really help helpful healing lasers that can prevent long term degeneration potentially or like help to support the brain in those kind of longer term picture ways but also help to up level consciousness kind of experiences because it’s a very.
1:15:33 Dr. Amy Albright: Sometimes those lights can help somebody kind of uplevel into that gamma that we were talking about earlier. Even if it’s just gently. So over time it can make a huge difference, you know, when we practice. So it’s real time brain learning. All of these things are not just state dependent, it’s you know, well the, the NeuroFeedback and the HRV. Everything that we’re doing here is and also must. Most of what’s in the Sensei is actual Real time brain learning.
1:16:02 Dr. Amy Albright: So if we do it and we practice it enough, our brains grow new connections and new cells to be able to support the learning and the change over time. So it’s huge, it’s powerful. That headset’s very effective and safe to use at home for most people. And yeah, there’s a lot of things that are out there, other off the shelf products that I would not recommend just because they’re not necessarily studying and measuring and training the right things at the right places. They haven’t been designed with the same level of care. So I know I have a bit of a bias.
1:16:38 Dr. Amy Albright: I deeply love my work colleagues, but I also part of the reason why I have that bias is because I’ve been. We started with him basically saving my sister from being disabled for her whole life. That’s actually how we started. And then realized that we have this shared path and really, I think incarnated to do this work together. It’s really deep, the amount of dharmic path overlap that we have. But I have such trust in everything he’s developed and have seen such great results for people using the Sensei. So I definitely want to put that out there for people to check into.
1:17:17 Tansy Rodgers: Wow. Well, and I think what makes your, from what you’ve been speaking of this entire podcast, actually what makes yours so interesting and so transformative, I think is that upgrading the consciousness, the expansion, the evolution piece of it. And so, so I’m sure, because that is a large part of your passion and the work that you do, along of course, with the brain up, leveling. Right. I’m sure that there is a part of your practice that is huge in the sacred practice and the sacredness behind it. So I’m curious, Dr. Amy, are there a few ways that you personally stay connected to your body, to your intuition and your spirit while you’re doing this cerebral and energetic work?
1:18:10 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah. The Holon Breath Practice, that’s available for free download at the website the holonexperience.com it is foundational. It is life changing. I utilize it all day long, throughout the day, and it’s a part of what helps me to anchor. I believe that every breath that we breathe and every beat of our heart is the opportunity for a sacred moment. So I also, you know, I do things, like I said, sit in the morning and contemplation and reflection and studies, journaling, meditation.
1:18:42 Dr. Amy Albright: Sometimes I utilize the Sensei or you know, things like that. Like I’m really, I’m really clear that I am to anchor my reality every day into those sorts of practices and that everything else hierarchically comes second. So that’s something really important. I’m a single mom, I’m a CEO of a company, I have a doctorate, whatever, whatever I do, I do all of the different kinds of projects that I do in the world. There’s a lot that I do that in service to groups and organizations that are actually creating a new paradigm and template for how to navigate as humanity as capitalism is red is basically being reborn or whatever. Like how do we, how do we re envision and implement different ways of being? So I’m quite busy on a lot of levels, but I feel the sense of ease inside of all of it.
1:19:27 Dr. Amy Albright: And I stack order, priority, everything after my connection. So like connection first. I work for God, I serve the people. Yes. I’m a mother. I must then take care of myself. Like it was not an easy, that wasn’t easy for me to overcome. It’s part of how I can help other people to overcome the shift. Because I think we can be so driven to be of service or to be in some ways an accidental slave to reality rather than being a creator of reality.
1:19:57 Dr. Amy Albright: So just remembering that in every moment really stack ordering my day according to that, bringing ceremony into each breath, presence into any moment that I can and bringing as many moments like that together over the years has really changed. I know it’s changed my brain, it’s changed my perception of reality, it’s changed my capacities, you know, all of those kind of things. So. But I would say that you know, continuously and you’re hearing it in this conversation continuously bringing myself and others back to that.
1:20:30 Dr. Amy Albright: You know, there’s a loss of the sacred that happened with colonization, with industrialization, with all the stuff that we might label as progress. It’s actually in many ways been not progress. It’s been important progress. But we’ve lost certain things. So yes, bringing back the sacred. So I teach energetic sciences the way that I’ve learned them on the job. The way that the lineage that I come from is not necessarily one of an ancient people of this planet, but rather the lineage that my, my, my non physical guidance has brought to me over the course of the, the decades of my career.
1:21:12 Dr. Amy Albright: And so I teach that as a framing and a way to navigate and feel into and work with our own energetic field. To be able to morph it, you know, to be able to change our reality by shifting not just our awareness but our energy body and the whole on breath practice is an amazing shift for that. Yeah.
1:21:35 Tansy Rodgers: With this time that we’re in. It can bring burnout over stimulation, constant input. It’s just. It’s the norm right now. And so if the listener wanted to just start with one practice, start with one, be it a sacred practice or a shifting of the neurological functioning, what would you recommend to be that first place to start? Would it be that breath work download that you just talked about, or would it be something else?
1:22:08 Dr. Amy Albright: No, I think it’s. I think it’s the breath work, honestly, because we can have it with us at all times, and it helps us to see through the illusion. If we’re in that experience of reality, we’re an illusion, you know, so it’s just shifting as many moments as we can, stepping outside of the illusion, and putting as many moments together as we can inside of that until we step into another reality. And so the breath practice is huge for that. And then I would say if there was, like, a philosophical frame that can be really helpful is.
1:22:36 Dr. Amy Albright: Or a lens that we can look at would be balancing the inputs with the outputs. So most of us are taking in too many inputs. We’re t. We’re listening to. To things while we go for a walk. While we, you know, walk. We’re walking the dog, you know, like, we’re trying to do too many things at once. We’re multitasking a lot through our days. We’re having a lot of interruptions, and it’s bombardment. And then I would just say focusing on the output. So exercise not for the sake of, like, trying to be fit or get your heart rate in a certain level or, like, in the noisy gym, but rather, like, how can we move? How can we anchor ourselves into the body in a way that is quiet and in a way that is an output of expression? Right. Maybe we sing, maybe we journal, Maybe we, you know, do whatever. Just taking the time and the spaciousness.
1:23:22 Dr. Amy Albright: And if you believe you don’t have it, then you need it even more. Like, truly. Truly, you know?
1:23:30 Tansy Rodgers: Yeah. Yeah. So I. I have even found that my grounding practice is easily one of the first places to go when I. I mean, to let go of when I am busy, because I think, oh, I’ll be fine. And in reality, I won’t be, because after a day or two, I feel very out of whack. And so it was exactly that grounding practice that I needed.
1:23:55 Dr. Amy Albright: That’s right. Yeah. It’s grounding, but it’s. It also. What I’m hearing in that, then, is that it’s opening your perception of awareness. Yeah, right. It’s it’s that, it’s that rooting that allows for you to perceive. And then inside of that, you’re making much more strategic decisions, much more aligned decisions that then guide you down the right path so you can keep going and look like you’re being more efficient with time by skipping that grounding practice.
1:24:19 Dr. Amy Albright: The trouble is, is that you spend the next 48 hours kind of like grinding up against the guardrails on the highway or like off on a totally different. And so then you’ve got to like bring yourself back. Right. And it actually takes so much more time and effort to get lost and be refounded, you know, than it is just to kind of stay close, close as we can. It’s never going to be perfect either because that’s part of the human experience.
1:24:42 Dr. Amy Albright: But close as we can to that, like that path, that, that ease, that, that center way. Yeah, yeah.
1:24:51 Tansy Rodgers: Beautiful conversation, Dr. Amy. Thank you so much. Where can our listeners connect with your work, explore Holon or even experience the fusion of sacred and science for themselves and just get into your world?
1:25:06 Dr. Amy Albright: Oh yeah. Thank you. You know, the website is a great resource. There’s a lot of information, just general information that might be helpful educationally and then also about our programs. That’s holon experience.com I’ll be offering a mystery school cohort this fall, so that’s a possibility. We do have some seats for our brain program that I was describing. I also sometimes do offer one on one, one time sessions for those that feel called to just work with me once and in those, I call them activation sessions.
1:25:41 Dr. Amy Albright: It’s really profound change. So there’s a lot with that. People can also find out more information and just hear me speak on all of this in greater detail or different, different topics in different podcasts that are recorded. So podcast app or Spotify. Right now I haven’t even really got much going with social media or YouTube, but we’ll get there. We’ll get there. I’ve mostly been just focused on helping people and not really that much on the whole, you know, but I want to be able to help more and more people. That’s the other thing that’s shifting so many people that I know I haven’t met each of your listeners in person, but it’s, it just brings me such delight to know that I’ve been able to touch more lives or maybe in some way be of service to folks that, that I’ll never have the chance to meet. So that feels really good.
1:26:27 Tansy Rodgers: Well, like you said earlier and like we Talked about. This is a ripple effect. The work that you’ve done, the work that you’ve done, the work that you’re doing is just rippling out and changing people’s life and impacting them, even if you aren’t aware of it.
1:26:42 Dr. Amy Albright: Yeah.
1:26:42 Tansy Rodgers: Yeah.
1:26:43 Dr. Amy Albright: Thank you. Thank you. Feels good.
1:26:46 Tansy Rodgers: Do you have any last words that you’d like to lay onto the hearts of the listeners for today?
1:26:52 Dr. Amy Albright: You’re more powerful than you could ever realize. There’s no way that you can actually understand the totality of who you are. And yet the quest for. For discovering it is so beautiful. And to come fully alive in this process of life, to become more and more alive and more youthful and timeless as we move forward. So that because as we release those burdens, we come into greater freedom. And that freedom is just.
1:27:17 Dr. Amy Albright: It rolls through the body like freedom. Freedom to be inside of joy, freedom of full aliveness, freedom of full expression. Even if we don’t necessarily know at the level of the mind exactly who we are, we know we can feel it come through. When we let go of the illusions of who we think we are, including that we might think that we are limited because we are not.
1:27:40 Tansy Rodgers: Which then you just come into full alignment.
1:27:43 Dr. Amy Albright: That’s right. Back to the word.
1:27:47 Tansy Rodgers: Back to the word. Oh, thank you so much, Dr. Amy, for all of this wisdom, for the work that you’re doing, for the lives you’re changing, for the way that you’re helping humanity to elevate and to ascend. I appreciate you so much and I appreciate the work that you’re doing.
1:28:04 Dr. Amy Albright: Oh, thank you. Thanks for the delightful conversation. I appreciate. Yeah.
1:28:10 Tansy Rodgers: So how are you feeling after that one? Dr. Amy’s work reminds us that true expansion isn’t just about pushing harder or thinking positive. It’s really about aligning all levels of our intelligence, our body, our brain, our energy and our soul. It’s about remembering that you don’t have to fracture yourself to be successful. You don’t have to choose between sides and spirituality, groundedness and growth, structured intuition.
1:28:39 Tansy Rodgers: You get to be whole. So this week, I want to leave you with a few questions to sit with. Where are you still operating from outdated programming? Believing that you need to earn your worth, prove your value, or just push past your own body’s wisdom? What would it feel like to trust your brain and your gut, your intuition and the data? And if you slow down just enough to tune in, what kind of upgrade might actually be waiting for you?
1:29:16 Tansy Rodgers: Let this episode really ripple through you. And if it lit something up inside of you. I’d love if you would share it with somebody who’s ready for brain, body and soul level rebooting. And until next time, keep spreading that beautiful energy you are born to share.
