Segment 1
On this episode of The Conscious Consultant Hour, Sam is joined by Energetic Health Practitioner and Trauma Recovery Facilitator, Occam Wood, as they will discuss his journey and work in metaphysics and other related subjects along with some personal journey stories. As always, Sam starts the show by reading a blog post entitled, “Communication Can Be Challenging Unless We Are Truly Present.” To read this blog and for more content from Sam, please visit www.talkradio.nyc/blog or www.theconsciousconsultant.com for more information. After he reads his blog, Sam gives a formal introduction to Occum and finishes the segment by asking Occum how he started on his path to sobriety.
Segment 2
After the first break, we return to Sam and Occam dives deeper and continues to share Occam’s story of how he got on the path of healing. Occam also highlights a big part of his story was the power of choice and how he realized that the choices he could make would lead him down potential paths that would not serve him well. Then, we learn how Occam started doing healing work and what was the catalyst that made him realize that a change needed to happen for his wife, son, and himself.
Segment 3
Moving along into the discussion, Occam shares how he got back into healing work from a boating experience and helping a friend who was interested in crystals and a special ceremony Occam participated in. He then recalls the story of how he was called back onto the healer’s path, how it was his wake-up call, and the aftermath of that call.
Segment 4
As the episode comes to a close, Sam and Occam wrap up their conversation by discussing Occam’s business, Trauma Transmutation, and Soul Integration (TTSI). Occam shares what his business is, what he does, and what results he sees in the energy fields. He specifies that with TTSI, he almost acts like a tuning fork, seeing the emotion, and being able to help realign someone’s energy to heal.

00:00:46.120 --> 00:01:10.459 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Good afternoon, my conscious Co. Creators! Welcome to another edition of the conscious consultant hour awakening humanity. I am very, very pleased that you are all here with me today. We've got another wonderful show in store for you with an amazing guest. Young gentleman I met a while ago. I thought you'd really like
00:01:11.210 --> 00:01:13.079 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: did catch last week's show
00:01:13.590 --> 00:01:23.560 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: last week's show with was an amazing show with a woman who's who's been on a spiritual path for a long, long time, and
00:01:24.506 --> 00:01:40.909 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: I just I just totally thoroughly enjoyed the conversation, and if you haven't listened to it, please do alright. So let's start off as we have been lately with my blog from a couple of years ago, and just going through these in order.
00:01:41.010 --> 00:01:45.860 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: And this one is an interesting one. It's entitled.
00:01:46.190 --> 00:01:48.940 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Communication can be challenging
00:01:49.150 --> 00:01:51.520 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: unless we are truly present.
00:01:52.410 --> 00:01:54.870 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: We all communicate differently.
00:01:55.170 --> 00:01:57.540 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Some communicate with words.
00:01:57.740 --> 00:02:00.319 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: others communicate with action.
00:02:00.790 --> 00:02:04.039 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: yet it is all open to interpretation.
00:02:04.850 --> 00:02:07.790 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: We feel that when we say one thing.
00:02:08.190 --> 00:02:12.419 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: that is what the other, that is what the other person wants to hear.
00:02:12.660 --> 00:02:17.880 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: yet often the other person hears something completely different.
00:02:18.380 --> 00:02:23.940 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Sometimes our silence communicates so much more than our words.
00:02:24.570 --> 00:02:29.440 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and the story we make from the silence can be far different
00:02:29.460 --> 00:02:31.230 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: than what we intended.
00:02:32.210 --> 00:02:36.700 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: This is why clear communication is so important.
00:02:37.510 --> 00:02:43.080 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Ultimately we truly don't know what the other person heard.
00:02:43.830 --> 00:02:47.480 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: or how they will interpret what they heard.
00:02:48.010 --> 00:02:55.020 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: We certainly do not know what story or meaning they will create from what we said.
00:02:55.430 --> 00:03:03.840 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: So how do we communicate? Clearly when there are so many things that interfere with our communication
00:03:04.790 --> 00:03:06.210 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: with effort.
00:03:06.470 --> 00:03:08.220 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: acknowledgement.
00:03:08.470 --> 00:03:10.590 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and reflecting back
00:03:10.630 --> 00:03:11.869 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: what we heard.
00:03:12.640 --> 00:03:17.220 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: The most important factor in clear communication
00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:19.070 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: is our presence.
00:03:19.950 --> 00:03:24.600 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: When we are truly present to the conversation we are having.
00:03:24.850 --> 00:03:28.689 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: we can feel what is being communicated.
00:03:29.370 --> 00:03:33.359 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: When 2 people are truly present to a conversation.
00:03:33.720 --> 00:03:36.620 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: the words almost don't matter.
00:03:37.270 --> 00:03:41.339 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: They will know what the other person is feeling.
00:03:42.070 --> 00:03:46.850 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and and where and what they are trying to convey.
00:03:47.560 --> 00:03:52.469 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Presence is our greatest asset when it comes to communication.
00:03:53.230 --> 00:03:56.400 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: not just being present to the other person.
00:03:56.780 --> 00:04:02.459 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: but being present to the story we are making from what we are hearing
00:04:03.650 --> 00:04:10.579 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: when we are self aware enough to see our own internal meaning making program in action.
00:04:11.570 --> 00:04:13.209 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: we can step back
00:04:13.350 --> 00:04:17.490 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and refrain from creating a story around it
00:04:17.589 --> 00:04:22.790 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: until we are certain we understand what is truly going on.
00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:25.730 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: This takes time.
00:04:26.420 --> 00:04:28.479 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and it takes practice.
00:04:29.230 --> 00:04:34.269 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: yet the rewards will be immeasurable if we stay with it.
00:04:35.520 --> 00:04:37.869 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: communication can be challenging.
00:04:38.600 --> 00:04:43.559 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: The antidote is almost always presence.
00:04:44.930 --> 00:04:49.259 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: So how can you be more present to the conversations.
00:04:49.320 --> 00:04:52.290 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: especially the challenging ones
00:04:52.670 --> 00:04:53.930 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: in your life?
00:04:55.760 --> 00:04:56.680 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: So
00:04:59.760 --> 00:05:02.149 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: this, this blog post I wrote.
00:05:03.030 --> 00:05:10.450 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: I I I can imagine, like I don't 100% remember exactly. But
00:05:11.390 --> 00:05:15.479 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: because of the conversations I've had with my wife over the years.
00:05:15.770 --> 00:05:18.429 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and how I tend to
00:05:18.540 --> 00:05:21.639 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: be quiet sometimes when she says something.
00:05:21.910 --> 00:05:27.230 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and then I see the kind of meaning she makes from me being quiet in the conversation.
00:05:27.977 --> 00:05:29.800 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: I realize that
00:05:30.020 --> 00:05:32.439 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: being quiet isn't always the right
00:05:32.500 --> 00:05:33.790 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: way to go.
00:05:35.330 --> 00:05:38.920 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and so we've had many, many talks
00:05:38.990 --> 00:05:40.240 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: about
00:05:41.890 --> 00:05:43.300 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: communication
00:05:43.470 --> 00:05:47.890 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: in how we communicate, and being present to the conversation.
00:05:50.290 --> 00:05:52.100 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: So so this
00:05:52.570 --> 00:05:55.570 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: blog post truly, is an outgrowth
00:05:55.910 --> 00:05:59.769 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: of all those conversations I've had with my wife.
00:06:00.270 --> 00:06:01.760 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: where there was some
00:06:02.350 --> 00:06:03.950 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: misunderstanding.
00:06:04.350 --> 00:06:08.300 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Maybe there was some misinterpretation.
00:06:09.100 --> 00:06:14.229 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Maybe we heard the same thing, but we heard it differently.
00:06:16.400 --> 00:06:19.369 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and so I learned that no matter
00:06:19.910 --> 00:06:20.870 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: how
00:06:22.090 --> 00:06:24.699 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: close you are to somebody.
00:06:24.970 --> 00:06:27.349 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: how long you've been together. I mean
00:06:27.390 --> 00:06:29.789 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: me and my wife been married 21 years.
00:06:32.590 --> 00:06:33.570 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: They're
00:06:34.270 --> 00:06:35.940 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: is always
00:06:36.190 --> 00:06:40.479 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: improvement that we can make with our communication.
00:06:42.460 --> 00:06:44.910 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: because communication is so
00:06:44.980 --> 00:06:48.000 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: deeply tied to presence.
00:06:48.940 --> 00:06:52.080 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and we can always learn to be more present.
00:06:52.400 --> 00:06:58.910 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: especially in today's world, where there is so much pulling us out of presence.
00:06:59.880 --> 00:07:05.100 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: I mean, I don't know if you heard it on the audio or not, but
00:07:05.300 --> 00:07:08.340 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: you know, just even from starting this show
00:07:08.820 --> 00:07:18.559 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: fire trucks, ambulances. I was hearing the sirens, because now it's getting kind of warm here in New York City. So I have the windows open, and it's really noisy outside.
00:07:18.950 --> 00:07:22.830 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Even that alone can take you out of presence
00:07:24.180 --> 00:07:25.850 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and and
00:07:26.390 --> 00:07:28.329 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: compound on top of that.
00:07:28.360 --> 00:07:33.479 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: our phones, which are constantly buzzing for our attention
00:07:33.610 --> 00:07:37.999 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: this expectation that we're always available all the time.
00:07:39.389 --> 00:07:44.150 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: There was just so much vying for our attention.
00:07:44.220 --> 00:07:53.040 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and and there's so much designed to pull us out of presence. So we pay attention to what they want us to pay attention to
00:07:54.990 --> 00:07:57.140 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: that. It really is a battle
00:07:57.440 --> 00:08:03.810 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: to just stay present in our day-to-day life and in our day-to-day communications.
00:08:08.650 --> 00:08:09.930 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: I
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:15.780 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: I find it so interesting, and I don't know if you've ever had this experience
00:08:16.690 --> 00:08:20.239 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: when we, when my wife and I go out to eat in a restaurant in New York.
00:08:20.730 --> 00:08:22.230 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and we sit down
00:08:22.910 --> 00:08:26.189 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and we're we're waiting to order, and you look around.
00:08:27.690 --> 00:08:32.459 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and if it's a family eating together, you can see, like the parents sitting there
00:08:32.539 --> 00:08:35.919 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: talking to each other, looking at each other. And the kids are on their phone.
00:08:36.370 --> 00:08:39.390 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: I've even seen, you know, young couples
00:08:39.600 --> 00:08:45.910 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: eating a meal together, and neither one is talking to each other, and they're both on their phones texting somebody
00:08:46.970 --> 00:09:06.420 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: I always used to think, oh, they're texting somebody else welcome. They're not talking to each other, but then somebody told me no, that they actually do that with their girlfriend because they don't want people to overhear their conversation in the restaurants. I'm like, Oh, okay, they're actually texting to each other. That's that's an improvement. But I mean they're right there in front of you. No one's paying attention.
00:09:06.580 --> 00:09:08.100 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: You can talk to each other.
00:09:10.140 --> 00:09:12.140 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: you know. Communication is
00:09:12.960 --> 00:09:14.510 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: changed a lot
00:09:14.680 --> 00:09:16.710 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: since I was young.
00:09:18.980 --> 00:09:21.340 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and I just feel like there are so many
00:09:21.660 --> 00:09:25.170 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: challenges today with communication.
00:09:26.530 --> 00:09:28.339 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: But what I've seen
00:09:29.240 --> 00:09:36.780 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: from my own conversations with my wife, which is like the closest person to you, is the biggest reflection of where you are.
00:09:38.440 --> 00:09:45.759 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: that ultimately what always improves communication with each other is presence
00:09:46.460 --> 00:09:49.189 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: when I can be truly present with her.
00:09:49.380 --> 00:09:51.580 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and she's truly present with me.
00:09:51.760 --> 00:09:56.449 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and be mindful of the meaning and the stories we make.
00:09:58.360 --> 00:10:01.280 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: so that we can really hear the other person
00:10:02.680 --> 00:10:04.199 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: that is worth
00:10:05.490 --> 00:10:06.610 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: gold.
00:10:07.380 --> 00:10:09.650 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: or, as they say, old tea in China.
00:10:13.650 --> 00:10:14.760 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: because
00:10:15.650 --> 00:10:20.110 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: presence truly is such a rare commodity these days
00:10:20.140 --> 00:10:22.730 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: and getting more rare and more precious.
00:10:24.570 --> 00:10:34.139 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: So that's my blog post entitled Communication can be challenging unless we are truly present. I would love to hear your thoughts on it.

00:12:54.950 --> 00:13:04.120 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: kind of how you got on this path. Now, now, obviously, you've you've had some challenges, some pretty strong challenges in the path.
00:13:05.390 --> 00:13:06.850 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: but but what
00:13:07.320 --> 00:13:11.829 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: I guess kind of turned it around for you. What was the point at which
00:13:12.160 --> 00:13:16.320 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: you you said enough? With these challenges. I gotta find a way out.
00:13:16.940 --> 00:13:17.640 Occam Wood: Hmm.
00:13:17.860 --> 00:13:46.529 Occam Wood: yeah, there's there's really 2 2 points right? Because obviously, like you said, having had the childhood of sexual and physical abuse that led to the drug and alcohol abuse right? And it was really on that rooftop at 19, when I was about to commit suicide, and I was trying to figure out who to blame right? Whose fault wasn't that I was here? And and in that moment I had this realization, this moment of clarity. You might say that said, you know, the only person that was in all those search situations, all those circumstances, was me.
00:13:46.530 --> 00:14:04.380 Occam Wood: I was the only common denominator, and so at that moment I realized that these were experiences, and that it was the story I was telling myself out of those experiences that was really the key. Now that started my my 20 year journey like I said. And then then, most recently, having my son with the autism that led me.
00:14:04.380 --> 00:14:04.810 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Through.
00:14:04.810 --> 00:14:22.120 Occam Wood: To ayahuasca. Ayahuasca showed me the core right? All these things that I'd been releasing over the years starting with the meth, which is obviously the most easy, easiest, and the least socially acceptable. But then, moving into all the rest of the ways that those those addictions manifest right, all the different sites.
00:14:22.120 --> 00:14:22.910 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Absences.
00:14:22.910 --> 00:14:51.510 Occam Wood: Behaviors and stuff. And so the ayahuasca really showed me to get back to the base level, which is ultimately the energetic level. And so by by contrasting what was happening in the subtle energies to what was happening in the physical reality, and and utilizing the energy to manipulate and transmutate some of those past stories into power stories. So I literally decided to become a product of my past instead of a victim to it. And that's really.
00:14:51.510 --> 00:14:52.030 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: That's really.
00:14:52.370 --> 00:14:53.390 Occam Wood: The main catalyst.
00:14:54.400 --> 00:14:58.139 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: So when you are on that rooftop, considering
00:14:58.430 --> 00:14:59.780 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: killing yourself?
00:15:01.650 --> 00:15:06.909 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Was there like a voice in the back of your head? Was there something that kind of
00:15:07.580 --> 00:15:14.250 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: either pulled you out of that, or or put you into more presence, or or yeah.
00:15:14.250 --> 00:15:21.940 Occam Wood: Yeah, definitely, definitely. I'm not. I'm not sure if it was the voice of God per se. But there was definitely like some form of divine intervention.
00:15:22.440 --> 00:15:26.190 Occam Wood: And I've had this experience multiple times in my life where that voice
00:15:26.310 --> 00:15:50.000 Occam Wood: and maybe it's from some future me on some alternative, timeline that said like this is a moment that could change everything, and being in that moment being present like you're talking about to receive that message and say that I could choose, and that it can change. And so I would say there was a voice. What the voice was I'm still not 100% sure of, but it was definitely the moment of clarity and and
00:15:50.410 --> 00:15:52.980 Occam Wood: and and what I believe to be divine intervention.
00:15:53.140 --> 00:16:13.350 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Yeah, yeah, beautiful, beautiful. Okay, we're gonna take our first break. I do see loyal listener, Patty checking in from Pennsylvania. Patty, thank you so much for checking in, no matter where you are traveling these days in your Rv. Thank you for always tuning in. I really appreciate it. When we come back. I'd like to talk a little bit about the.
00:16:13.670 --> 00:16:23.059 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: you know. Give people a little bit fuller picture of your background and sort of what were the challenges like once you sort of made started on that path.
00:16:23.310 --> 00:16:40.230 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: as we all know, it's like that path moving forward is not a a an easy road, and it and it doesn't mean there are no bumps along the way. So I'd like to be able to give our audience a little bit of a paint, a little bit of a more detailed picture before we get into sort of what you're doing today. Okay.
00:16:40.230 --> 00:16:40.900 Occam Wood: Sure.
00:16:40.900 --> 00:16:52.230 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Awesome, awesome. So everybody, please stay tuned. You are listening to the conscious consultant hour awakening humanity. We do this every Thursday 12 noon to one pm, eastern.
00:16:52.820 --> 00:17:00.090 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: right here on talk radio, Nyc, and all over our social media and Youtube and Facebook and Twitter and Linkedin and Twitch.
00:17:00.240 --> 00:17:04.980 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: And we will be right back with our guest, Acker Wood. In just a moment.
00:19:22.090 --> 00:19:23.320 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: So how come.
00:19:24.240 --> 00:19:28.049 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: welcome back to the conscious consult now our weakening humanity.
00:19:28.870 --> 00:19:34.439 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: so acome I'm I'm wondering if you can. I mean you. You gave us a little bit of
00:19:34.490 --> 00:19:45.010 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: of of your background, of of the physical abuse, sexual abuse you suffered as a child, but I'm wondering if you can paint a little bit deeper picture of how you ended up on that rooftop.
00:19:45.320 --> 00:19:47.710 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: considering suicide.
00:19:47.910 --> 00:19:54.559 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: And and then, you know, kind of what happened afterwards, when she made the decision not to kill yourself into.
00:19:54.590 --> 00:19:56.899 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: to to where things went from. There.
00:19:57.080 --> 00:20:26.061 Occam Wood: Yeah, yeah, totally open about it. I totally believe that vulnerability is a super power, and it's contagious. So if my story helps someone else tell their story or share their needs. Then it's then it's the beneficial right and and I really do have to preface like I didn't have the worst childhood right? A lot of my clients have a lot worse experiences than I had. But there was the sexual molestation that was unchecked. It was actually unknown about. I was molested by a male cousin from the time I was 7 to the time I was 11,
00:20:26.400 --> 00:20:29.129 Occam Wood: and that actually didn't come out until I was 14.
00:20:29.150 --> 00:20:35.660 Occam Wood: And at that point I had basically manifested in a life threatening illness, like basically I was dying.
00:20:35.880 --> 00:20:52.810 Occam Wood: And so my mom took me to some natural healers. And 2 of them were raki practitioners. And they they were doing the energy work on me. And they were telling me about how it's basically using the energy of the universe to to connect with person and manipulate and and utilize
00:20:53.230 --> 00:20:58.010 Occam Wood: their training, to help manipulate the energy field to enhance health and vitality.
00:20:58.100 --> 00:21:14.170 Occam Wood: And even at that point I remember sharing with them that at the age of 7 I put my hands on a cat, and said, like, I don't believe in God necessarily. But whatever Jesus did, whatever the sun makes the sunshine in the grass grow, let me put that into this cat and help help it with his pain.
00:21:14.625 --> 00:21:36.280 Occam Wood: And so when I told them that story, they're like, Oh, my gosh! He's a natural. We need to train him. And this is the early nineties like it was like $1,500 to get trained, and you had to go ie, or Japan, and and my mom was like, well, we can't afford that, you know, and she's like, no, you don't understand. We have to train him. So so they took. They trained me through up to my level 2, and I was using that quite a bit on friends and family.
00:21:36.610 --> 00:21:37.620 Occam Wood: And
00:21:37.700 --> 00:21:48.653 Occam Wood: then I went to high school right, and being a sensitive team, was definitely not productive. And and and I had been fairly isolated up until that point. So I wanted to make friends
00:21:49.390 --> 00:22:12.310 Occam Wood: started with the cigarettes, then to the marijuana and the alcohol, and then that led to meth, you know. So there was this whole progression out of this, this foe awakening, or this pre awakening to the truth of the universe. That maybe was a little too early. Or maybe it was just on time, you know, it's hard to say. But basically I I turned from that and went really into the Dark Ages. And there was. There were some other things that happened there that really
00:22:12.560 --> 00:22:32.060 Occam Wood: led me to momentarily believe that by being a bad guy, by being a jerk I could get ahead right, because I was obviously taken advantage of by all these different people. And so if I was gonna be a nice guy, it was gonna it was gonna suck. And so I I decided, I I made the conscious effort. So I'm gonna be a little bit more of a hard ass, you know.
00:22:32.570 --> 00:22:39.420 Occam Wood: And and that just got way out of hand. And so over the next 4 years, I mean, I mean, it was really dark.
00:22:39.820 --> 00:22:56.648 Occam Wood: There was one moment where I actually almost committed murder. someone had stolen some money from my mom and and the guys I was hanging out with. I was just really impressionable, and it didn't take long. I was. I was a only child, only boy with 8 sisters and my and my mom right? I was great.
00:22:56.920 --> 00:22:57.380 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: There's yeah.
00:22:57.722 --> 00:23:12.437 Occam Wood: 8 of them only 5 at any one time. But but I already had this this dominant protective energy right? And so it took very little effort for that to be weaponized and turn into something that was very dark. And so,
00:23:12.830 --> 00:23:37.171 Occam Wood: long story short, the end of the night or the early morning. Actually, I was given the gun and and told like, All right, we need to put this guy in his grave and head home. And this is another time where I believe, like an alternative, Timeline reached back to me, probably my future self tatted up in a prison cell, maybe even on the death bed, you know. Maybe on on the execution chair reached back to me and said, if you pull this trigger there's no coming back, you know.
00:23:37.860 --> 00:24:05.890 Occam Wood: So in that moment I chose life I chose to to, not murder, and I chose to to deal with consequences, and that led to prison, and then that not not full prison, I actually pled guilty so I wouldn't go to prison, ended up in the did a bunch of of jail time and and probation and stuff. And and that's just like crime school like, honestly, we've got. We gotta do something about our criminal institutions. Because it was just easier and easier for me. I met more and more people who were leading me in the other direction, right? And so.
00:24:05.890 --> 00:24:06.370 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Right.
00:24:06.370 --> 00:24:21.019 Occam Wood: I was. That was a progressive. That was a progressive experience, going from 16 and almost going to prison up until that 19, that 19 year old, who was about to commit suicide. So it was really intense. 3 and 4 years and
00:24:22.490 --> 00:24:25.779 Occam Wood: and within that it was like, I said, it was this really.
00:24:25.780 --> 00:24:35.070 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: I just wanna highlight something about what you're saying. Your story is like, there were a lot of environmental issues that were all kind of leading you in that direction.
00:24:35.530 --> 00:24:41.270 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Not not to take away any of your own agency, and not to say that you don't have choice.
00:24:41.880 --> 00:24:42.720 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: but
00:24:42.880 --> 00:24:49.059 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: especially at that age. We are impressionable. And in our environment
00:24:50.215 --> 00:24:51.100 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: does
00:24:51.340 --> 00:24:54.589 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: mean a lot. And and like, you know, if you're a
00:24:54.800 --> 00:25:11.739 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: a poor kid in the Ghetto, you know, you can easily get pushed to the life of crime, whereas if you live in a wealthy neighborhood, and you're surrounded by all these people that are wealthy and well educated. That's gonna put you in another path or direction.
00:25:11.750 --> 00:25:14.290 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: And so it is hard to
00:25:14.930 --> 00:25:17.539 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: sort of swim against that current.
00:25:18.640 --> 00:25:33.080 Occam Wood: yeah, it takes a lot of it takes a lot of spirit. You know, it takes a lot of that connection to something higher than what you've been given, and understanding that what one man can do another man can do, you know. And so, understanding that that was really helpful to me
00:25:33.080 --> 00:25:56.662 Occam Wood: knowing, and then, like, I said, in that moment I was being a victim. I was being the result of my circumstances right. And so in that moment what was really happening on a deeper level was I was choosing to be the cause. I was choosing to understand that it was my choices and not the story that had led me to where I was, and that I could become a product of my past instead of a victim to it.
00:25:56.950 --> 00:26:26.330 Occam Wood: And so there is that awareness and and that choice, and and it didn't happen overnight, like it's I. I still took me a couple of like, maybe a month and a half to get off. Meth then moved to Oregon, jumped on a commercial fishing boat for 2 years, as I sober up, and it kind of came back to society, these 2 2 or 3 really powerful men, the captains that I was fishing with in this other family. So there's the Evanes, the Cunninghams and the Petersens. And these 3 men basically showed me what
00:26:26.630 --> 00:26:35.310 Occam Wood: unconditional love was. They showed me what powerful true masculinity could be, how you could support someone, and still, you know.
00:26:35.700 --> 00:26:43.800 Occam Wood: put them put paddle the butt when you needed to, but like encouraging through that, and not just punishing. And so it. It was
00:26:44.290 --> 00:26:55.019 Occam Wood: purity, through the grace of of other people, seeing me and and and holding me up to a higher standard, and letting me know that that was available that really helped me pull out of that.
00:26:55.040 --> 00:27:02.120 Occam Wood: And and I and I do have to. I I do want to go back real quick, because I don't think I mentioned this. But my mom found the money.
00:27:02.790 --> 00:27:03.560 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Nice day.
00:27:03.560 --> 00:27:08.584 Occam Wood: Just so that guy almost murdered because he stole money from my mom. That was actually misunderstanding.
00:27:09.610 --> 00:27:10.180 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: So.
00:27:10.180 --> 00:27:15.860 Occam Wood: I would have if I had to follow through with it, I would have murdered an innocent person due to my perspective.
00:27:16.362 --> 00:27:20.477 Occam Wood: my experience, you know. So the that's a huge lesson for me
00:27:20.930 --> 00:27:22.160 Occam Wood: in choice.
00:27:22.620 --> 00:27:43.549 Occam Wood: You know that that has come back as one of the biggest messages for me, as as far as choice goes, and that choice to join society, that choice to come back, that choice to not let my story be the one be the the determining factor for what I was going to do in this world, and how I was gonna behave was probably one of the biggest factors th those 2 moments in time.
00:27:43.740 --> 00:27:50.829 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Was your family supportive of you like going on the fishing boat, getting out of that environment and and turning your life around.
00:27:50.830 --> 00:28:14.649 Occam Wood: Yeah, yeah. Luckily it was just me and my mom at that point, and my little sister and and my mom was the one who invited me to to to Oregon, and that was actually to deal with my step, Dad, who was molesting my little sister, and so we actually did both. We both ended up in jail, cause I was still teenager, handled that angry teenager, and so we both ended up in jail, me for assault and him for abuse.
00:28:14.880 --> 00:28:24.490 Occam Wood: and and so she was paramount and giving me some place to be. And and my mom's always been the type of person that's like you can't do that in my house.
00:28:24.720 --> 00:28:25.370 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: None.
00:28:25.370 --> 00:28:36.320 Occam Wood: When you choose that you don't wanna do that like, go have your life experience. And when you choose that you don't wanna do that anymore. And you wanna come back to like the core like my arms will be open and there will be no, I told you so.
00:28:36.800 --> 00:28:37.510 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Bu-.
00:28:37.510 --> 00:28:45.020 Occam Wood: And that is probably one of the most important things that I can tell any parent, especially if they're dealing with a child who's in their own throes of their dark night.
00:28:45.230 --> 00:28:45.950 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Is that you mean.
00:28:45.950 --> 00:28:50.520 Occam Wood: Only go so far, and there's a limit to how much you can enable them.
00:28:50.670 --> 00:28:53.009 Occam Wood: Just naturally you have to cut them off at some point right.
00:28:53.010 --> 00:28:53.810 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: I don't know.
00:28:53.810 --> 00:28:59.530 Occam Wood: Do it in a way that they know when they make the choice that they're not gonna hear. And I told you so. It gives them a sense.
00:28:59.530 --> 00:29:00.160 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Ahems!
00:29:00.160 --> 00:29:24.058 Occam Wood: Come back to, you know, and I think that was a really key factor if my mom had been like, no, you can't come back, because, you know, whatever whatever. And I actually left my 2 year old son with his mother and a step. Dad like to get away from the meth like. When I left Colorado I left everybody I didn't take a number with, except for my baby mama, but I didn't take a single number. I didn't take a single connection with me, because I had to absolutely recreate
00:29:24.340 --> 00:29:30.049 Occam Wood: my entire environment to to clear myself and clean myself from that that dark energy.
00:29:30.370 --> 00:29:31.650 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: And and and
00:29:31.900 --> 00:29:34.060 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: how long would you say that took you to
00:29:34.090 --> 00:29:36.770 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: clear yourself from that moment that you made that choice.
00:29:37.000 --> 00:30:01.789 Occam Wood: Oh, I mean the the choice to live came really quickly. And then once I got to Oregon and and got off the meth and got away from the environment that I'd cultivated around me. It was really quite fast, actually, like the the time out on the ocean was a lot of introspection and a lot of retrospection. And like, I said, just seeing these men who they didn't see me for my story. They didn't know my story. I didn't. I wasn't sharing my at that time, you know, but they they saw me as my potential
00:30:02.100 --> 00:30:07.220 Occam Wood: and having someone who can see you in your potential can open up doorways that you never knew were there.
00:30:07.230 --> 00:30:08.750 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Right right?
00:30:09.200 --> 00:30:13.499 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: And then just quickly, we just got a minute or 2 before break.
00:30:13.890 --> 00:30:19.590 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: What from that? What got you back on this path of he, of doing healing work.
00:30:19.760 --> 00:30:22.820 Occam Wood: Yeah. So that was another 10 years later. Actually. So I went through.
00:30:22.820 --> 00:30:23.250 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Good.
00:30:23.250 --> 00:30:51.689 Occam Wood: Through 10 years without the energy work going through like Aa and Na and different support groups and whatnot. And I did get some success like I said, I went from one substance to another, to another, to another, you know, and even, and even into the the porn and the sex addiction and everything else, and luckily my wife helped me with that at 25, because I I fell in love with her, and and she was the really the first person I actually told I loved so, having that support was also incredibly helpful. At 25. That's when I quit smoking cigarettes, and
00:30:51.950 --> 00:30:54.429 Occam Wood: it wasn't until my son stopped talking.
00:30:54.742 --> 00:31:14.427 Occam Wood: That and my life was falling apart around me. I was. I was growing cannabis here in Southern Oregon, and and we had lost all our money cause. I'm a excellent farmer. I am a terrible drug dealer. I grow great big vegetables and and cannabis, and but at that time everything was collapsing, and then my son stopped talking
00:31:14.760 --> 00:31:15.310 Occam Wood: and.
00:31:15.310 --> 00:31:15.900 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: And it was.
00:31:15.900 --> 00:31:38.129 Occam Wood: Really the catalyst of me getting on my knees and kind of asking the universe like clearly, I've made some sort of misdirection here. What can I change? What can I do to bring about the the life that I need in the life that I'm supposed to live? And then that ultimately led to the ayahuasca. And then that's like the whole, you know. The second chapter, I would say, started there really.
00:31:38.130 --> 00:31:39.220 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Alright, cool, cool.
00:31:39.220 --> 00:31:40.910 Occam Wood: Third phase, whatever you want to call it.
00:31:40.910 --> 00:31:51.830 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Yeah, yeah, I sometimes say, I've lived about 6, 7 lifetimes in this one life. All right, we're gonna take a quick break. And so when we come back.
00:31:51.960 --> 00:32:10.780 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: let's talk a little bit about that ayahuasca experience cause you know my guess last week what put her in her spiritual path was, she did Lsd. In the sixties and seventies, and that opened her up. She started meditating, and and brought her to a very deep connection to spirit. So I would like to kind of touch upon how that
00:32:10.850 --> 00:32:22.519 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: experience with plant medicine sort of opened you up and reconnected you to that part, and then, and then sort of what happened in terms of how you developed your healing modality and and what you do. Okay.
00:32:22.520 --> 00:32:23.500 Occam Wood: Absolutely.
00:32:23.500 --> 00:32:33.709 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Wonderful. So everyone, please stay tuned. You're listening to the conscious consultant, our awakening humanity, and we'll be right back with our guest. Acknowledge in just a moment.
00:34:38.780 --> 00:34:43.520 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: And welcome back to the conscious consult now awakening humanity.
00:34:43.906 --> 00:34:48.769 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: So so, Malcolm, once you had that experience on the fishing boat working with these men who
00:34:49.110 --> 00:34:55.709 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: we're we're we're not in the toxic, masculine, but but really encouraging and supportive.
00:34:55.830 --> 00:35:11.710 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: How did you get back to the healing work? How did you get back onto this path like, first of all, how did you end up going to do ayahuasca when your problem had been drug addiction for so long. And and then how did that experience open you up and change.
00:35:11.880 --> 00:35:20.259 Occam Wood: Yeah. Yeah. Well, so one of the first things that happened right after that fishing those those years fishing was that we got. I got invited to burning man.
00:35:20.927 --> 00:35:30.280 Occam Wood: So I don't know if you're familiar with Bernie, man, or if you've ever been, you may have heard of the tuna guys. These are the commercial fishermen that come from Oregon, and we bring tuna right? And so.
00:35:30.280 --> 00:35:30.930 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: My.
00:35:30.930 --> 00:35:37.355 Occam Wood: My sister literally was like, Hey, you wanna go fishing with this guy? This is Jim Peterson. Rest his soul. He went down with his ship.
00:35:37.950 --> 00:35:38.510 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: But.
00:35:38.510 --> 00:35:52.520 Occam Wood: And he, he needs some help give his tuna. And so, like, I'm just like, Yeah, I'd love to do tuna. So when did tuna. And we're asking. I'm asking him like, What are we? How much is we gonna get for this tuna tuna per pound? And he says, No, we're giving this away to dirty hippies in the middle of the desert.
00:35:53.438 --> 00:36:12.341 Occam Wood: and I says, Tell me more. And and and so ultimately I I was the kept. I I caught the fish that year, and so there was a there was a great deal of pride in that, and that's where the name Ockham came from. Actually, it seems like burning man. I picked up the Plaia name Ackham, and it was for Ockham's razor the simplest solutions, most often the correct.
00:36:12.858 --> 00:36:35.130 Occam Wood: and it kind of stuck with me after that. But what I saw there, coupled with those men that I was talking about, showed me this new edge of reality, this new aspect of society and community, and caring and friendship, and the fact. There were all these people who come together in the middle of the desert to make a city out of nothing, where you can't spend money where you. It's a gifting economy, like all of it, just totally blew my mind.
00:36:35.180 --> 00:36:56.181 Occam Wood: and there were definitely high amounts of psilocybin and and acid at that event also. And over the 3 years it really went from like me getting like totally trashed the whole week to having more of a spiritual experience than ultimately going through a rebirthing ceremony with a random 2 random people in the middle of the desert cause. That's just how things happen.
00:36:56.500 --> 00:37:09.581 Occam Wood: And and all of a sudden everything started to shift for me. And so it was the the next several years where I thought I found my path. I thought I was. Gonna be this off grid type of individual living, you know, cannabis rich and
00:37:09.980 --> 00:37:23.846 Occam Wood: Everything was collapsing. My my relationship with my wife was suffering. My child stopped talking. My partner almost committed suicide. And I was just on my knees to the universe, really asking, like, what am I supposed to be doing? What am I supposed to be doing here?
00:37:24.140 --> 00:37:25.240 Occam Wood: And
00:37:25.280 --> 00:37:47.609 Occam Wood: super long story short of of a friend who I'd been working with in the industry, shows up one night and says, Hey, I need your help, and I thought she just needed help like doing a deal right cause I'm a big, strong man. She's a little lady, and I was a gun packing hillbilly at that time pistol clocking, you know. Had it on my hip at all times, and she tells me no. Put the gun away. Put the gun away. We don't need the gun.
00:37:47.810 --> 00:37:50.169 Occam Wood: but if you have any crystals that would be good.
00:37:50.420 --> 00:38:16.521 Occam Wood: And I'm like, Oh, what you know. And she's like, Yeah, I'm in the middle of. Like. All I can say is, I'm in the middle of some spiritual warfare, and I can't talk to you you about it, but you are supposed to protect me while I do it. And I'm like, Okay, cause my mom was pretty open. She was pretty open as a native American stuff into the new Age stuff and crystal stuff, and I had plenty of friends who were into Wicca and and those kinds of like alternative natural, you know, occultish type traditions.
00:38:17.020 --> 00:38:19.909 Occam Wood: And so I was down for it. I just said, Okay.
00:38:20.190 --> 00:38:25.603 Occam Wood: and we ended up at the beach in the middle of night doing a ceremony which I can't talk about in public.
00:38:26.125 --> 00:38:26.400 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Me.
00:38:26.400 --> 00:38:44.989 Occam Wood: But after the fact, I asked her, you know, why did you choose me? And she said, Well, I went to Ayahuasca to see what I could do about this situation I'm in, and it said that you were. It showed me this ceremony, and it showed me exactly what that you were the only person who could protect me so that I could do it, and we'd never talked about this stuff before.
00:38:44.990 --> 00:38:45.800 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Wow, like.
00:38:45.800 --> 00:39:02.781 Occam Wood: Why on earth would ayahuasca tell you that? And what is ayahuasca, you know, and for those that don't know, it's like a jungle. Mix 2 plants, which one you can eat all you want of either of them, and have no effect, but when you mix them together in a very particular way it. It causes a psychotropic experience
00:39:03.160 --> 00:39:08.878 Occam Wood: that's very different from Lsd. And still assignment. As far as it is not something you do for fun.
00:39:09.180 --> 00:39:10.807 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Yeah, definitely. Not.
00:39:11.350 --> 00:39:27.939 Occam Wood: Situation, intense experience. And it's a Dmt experience. So it pulls back the letters of reality. And in that moment, as my body was thralling. And again, super short story super long story short, the first night I drank 12 times and did not have a visual experience.
00:39:27.940 --> 00:39:29.500 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: 12 time. Jeez.
00:39:29.500 --> 00:39:34.969 Occam Wood: 12 times I spent a whole night in the banya with a bucket. I called it purgatory.
00:39:34.970 --> 00:39:35.560 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Yeah.
00:39:35.560 --> 00:39:52.350 Occam Wood: Purging. And I was like, when's it gonna break through? And the next day I asked the guy I was like, what's going on cause. Everybody's telling me about. The snake went in and out of my body and ate my tumors, and I saw the face of my unborn child, and I saw the business that I'm supposed to create, and I was like all I did was puked like and crap my and crap a lot
00:39:52.801 --> 00:40:09.240 Occam Wood: but the luckily the guy was like well, and I think I even skipped this part right when when I asked her, What is this ayahuasca she's telling me about the ayahuasca, and I say, Well, why like I should check that out? And she says, Well, I'm glad you said that cause, Ayahuasca said, to to pay you. I was supposed to bring you to the medicine.
00:40:09.994 --> 00:40:14.109 Occam Wood: so when I say Ayahuasca found me, it literally reached out and brought me in.
00:40:15.040 --> 00:40:21.209 Occam Wood: And and it just happened to be that the next poor was on my thirty-third birthday.
00:40:23.070 --> 00:40:46.750 Occam Wood: So that first night I drank, drink, drank, and he told me never served anybody that much, and still had them be able to walk, let alone like offering the fire and and clean up messes, and he offered me to stay a second night. So he paid for my birthday for the second night, and then that night after Sweat Lodge, which is where I coughed up this huge entity. It was the first time I'd ever even said Entity. Like I'd never talked about that.
00:40:47.045 --> 00:40:47.340 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: But.
00:40:47.340 --> 00:40:53.680 Occam Wood: In that experience. When I was. I drank that second night very small amount very once, and I was completely
00:40:53.850 --> 00:41:19.489 Occam Wood: disconnected from my body. Ha! Experiencing the ego death, and and in the thralls of that, and and the and the Iowa scary came over, settled me down, told me to focus on my prayer I focused on my prayer, I said, What is my path? What is my what is one of my show me the path. Show me, show me the symbols. Show me the tricks. Show me the things that I need to see that will take me to the next level and out of the nowhere. This voice comes and says, you think you're gonna see your future in a cup of tea?
00:41:21.100 --> 00:41:30.649 Occam Wood: I opened my eyes like I literally thought someone was sitting next to me. But there's no one there. Everything's in slow motion, candles barely flickering. I close my eyes again. I say, yeah, I thought, that's what this was, and she says
00:41:30.800 --> 00:41:35.249 Occam Wood: I could show you anything, but when you walk out the door you choose to go left and right.
00:41:35.340 --> 00:41:48.889 Occam Wood: All there is, is options and opportunities. But you're making choices right? And so I was like, Well, well, what do I do then? And she says, Well, if you quit clouding your vision. You will know how to walk the path. And I said, What path? And she said, the healers path.
00:41:49.190 --> 00:41:50.020 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: And she's like, you know.
00:41:50.020 --> 00:41:52.849 Occam Wood: Know it, and you've been ignoring it, and it's time to go back to it.
00:41:53.130 --> 00:42:15.629 Occam Wood: So again, 8 h later, waking up and being like, okay. So I'm gonna stop smoking pot today. And I'm gonna be, get back on my healers path. And then I literally experience nightly experiences. I ended up, dealing with a a big entity that was haunting the house we were in, and my son like picked up some language after I dealt with that that particular spirit. It was really interesting. And like I said.
00:42:15.630 --> 00:42:16.180 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: This is all.
00:42:16.180 --> 00:42:44.269 Occam Wood: Foreign to me, but like every night she was showing me something new. She was showing me what I call dream school. She was showing me the 7 layers of the of the etheric body. She was showing me how life past lifes are all linked, you know. One of my first dreams was of. I was a woman running through this field with 2 children, and I got shot through the back, and then I saw the bullets come out of my body, and and right there I had 3 fatty tumors from the time I was 16, right where I saw those bullets come out.
00:42:44.550 --> 00:42:48.670 Occam Wood: So that's crazy. Anybody who knows about past life stuff. There's like a whole story. There.
00:42:48.670 --> 00:42:49.389 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:42:49.655 --> 00:42:56.820 Occam Wood: But then this Nazi comes over and shoots me in the face right? And then the very next night I'm a Nazi shooting people on execution squad
00:42:56.850 --> 00:43:05.150 Occam Wood: the next night. I'm a I'm a native American, getting my boot head crushed in by a boot hill of a soldier, and the next night. I'm a soldier burning a village. So she showed me all these pastures.
00:43:05.150 --> 00:43:05.770 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Life, experience.
00:43:05.770 --> 00:43:27.670 Occam Wood: She showed me the entities that live with these substances, and that feed off of these substances, and that ultimately feed off our thoughts. So she was showing me how thought forms and belief systems and constructs become entities and parasites right? And I hadn't had no language for any of this, but luckily I had a really beautiful I found a beautiful teacher who reattuned me to my reiki, too.
00:43:27.700 --> 00:43:32.089 Occam Wood: And in that course I was like, Okay, so when do we get to the entities?
00:43:32.200 --> 00:43:40.769 Occam Wood: And she's like, Oh, we don't do entities in Reiki. And I was like, well, then, this isn't what I'm supposed to be doing, because I'm supposed to be dealing with like entities.
00:43:40.830 --> 00:43:43.330 Occam Wood: and she says, Well, check out this course.
00:43:43.480 --> 00:43:46.909 Occam Wood: And she also taught this Barbara and Brendan hands of light.
00:43:47.225 --> 00:43:47.540 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Yeah.
00:43:47.540 --> 00:43:57.240 Occam Wood: And if you're familiar with that book, it reads like a college textbook for the supernatural, and not all supernatural, but really like the energetic templates of the physical body.
00:43:57.420 --> 00:44:02.909 Occam Wood: So then, I'm seeing all these words and phrases and templates that are helping me understand what I saw.
00:44:02.920 --> 00:44:19.524 Occam Wood: and then that really sparked me into into doing more, Rakey, and ultimately that lasted for about 2 years. And then my son's autism got so bad and I was working so hard doing Raikie and myself and others, and also doing my handyman business, that my wife was really suffering.
00:44:19.850 --> 00:44:21.080 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: And so I had to.
00:44:21.080 --> 00:44:34.729 Occam Wood: Step back from healing others and really focus on the core of the family for several years. And then it wasn't until the pandemic hit that I was called again to step out and start doing long distance sessions. And that's
00:44:34.790 --> 00:44:40.550 Occam Wood: when the Ttsi was born. That's when the first time I did a long distance session.
00:44:41.410 --> 00:45:02.372 Occam Wood: Everything changed, and it was no longer the 21 hand positions over 3 min intervals, you know it was everything it kind of came to a crescendo at that moment, and luckily the woman I worked with was a practitioner for 20 years, and she'd been to Shaman all over the world. And so she was actually able to help me kind of
00:45:03.025 --> 00:45:18.464 Occam Wood: decode exactly what was happening and what was going on, and how unique it was compared to what other people were doing, and how it was much closer to Shamanism and in, and she even said it was the closest thing she'd had to an ayahuasca experience and a rebirthing experience outside of that plant. Medicine.
00:45:18.740 --> 00:45:19.490 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: And so.
00:45:19.798 --> 00:45:22.879 Occam Wood: So that's all led to to what I do now.
00:45:23.300 --> 00:45:24.620 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Cool, cool, cool.
00:45:25.190 --> 00:45:44.590 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: I I I feel bad because we spend so much time talking about your path, and we don't have that much time left to talk about what you do. But we're gonna take a quick break, and when we come back let's talk about the the Ttsi. How does it help people? What is it good for? How do you do it? And and then.
00:45:44.630 --> 00:45:51.679 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: you know we about your contact information and we'll have to wrap up the show. So so we'll be very time efficient. Okay.
00:45:51.680 --> 00:45:52.520 Occam Wood: Sounds good.
00:45:52.520 --> 00:46:01.869 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Awesome. So everyone stay tuned. You're listening to the conscious consult now, awakening humanity, and we'll be right back with acknowled and wrap this all up in just a moment.
00:48:09.240 --> 00:48:12.040 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: And welcome back. Okay, Ockham. So
00:48:12.730 --> 00:48:25.440 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: amazing amazing journey and story you you kind of, in a way intuitively, energetically created this system you call trauma transmutation and soul integration?
00:48:25.710 --> 00:48:33.520 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: What is your experience of this? And when you've used this to to help people? What sort of changes have you seen.
00:48:34.240 --> 00:48:57.759 Occam Wood: Yeah, the the changes are so broad. It's it's really amazing. It's why it's hard to pick a niche, so to speak. But but the basics of it is the understanding that our physical body is built by our spirit body, condensing down universal life, force, energy into 3 dimensional matter, so that we can have a vehicle to experience life in right. And it does that. It goes through the ego field.
00:48:57.860 --> 00:49:22.849 Occam Wood: And and that ego field is where everything that we think and believe is living right, and that's what informs us of who we are. So if you've had a lifetime of like you said, right, you're talking about how, if you're raised around money and stability and structure and safety, then you're gonna in automatically embody these these beliefs that everything's safe, and that money is easy, and that you can trust people. And then, as that energy goes through that particular filter, then you're informed of who you are, and then
00:49:22.850 --> 00:49:30.170 Occam Wood: then you project that out into reality, and you resonate a particular frequency that then brings more experiences like that to you.
00:49:30.420 --> 00:49:55.979 Occam Wood: Now, if you were raised on the other end of the spectrum, where things weren't safe, where you weren't 100% secure, and you had scarcity, whether that be food or money scarcity, or possibly alcohol or or drugs in the family. Then you will be left with belief systems of of worthlessness and and fear and shame, potentially even. And that's what informs us of who we are on a subconscious level. And that's what we project out. And if you've ever had that
00:49:55.980 --> 00:50:06.651 Occam Wood: person that you may know that woman or man who is constantly getting into the same relationship, right? Doesn't matter what it looks like in the beginning. 3 weeks later. It's the same narcissistic, abusive situation.
00:50:06.940 --> 00:50:15.560 Occam Wood: and it usually reflects something to do with the relationship they have with the parents. Right? That's because these filters live in the energy field. So
00:50:15.780 --> 00:50:24.449 Occam Wood: what we do, what I do in the energy field is to connect to your soul team and your spirit team so that we can identify what
00:50:24.540 --> 00:50:50.120 Occam Wood: filters are causing your current experience. Right? So people can come to me for all kinds of different needs. Some of them originally, especially in the beginning. It was a lot of addiction suicidal ideation, depression, anxiety physical pain, right? And so because and I'll touch on that real quick, because that energy is pumping into the body. It should be this pure, balanced, universal life force. Right? It's it's neutral, it's
00:50:50.120 --> 00:50:59.599 Occam Wood: it's good and bad, light and dark. It's it's birth and decay. But depending on what filter you have is is gonna allow what's gonna allow in. And so
00:50:59.810 --> 00:51:04.659 Occam Wood: also those filters distort the energy that would be getting to your DNA, and it allows.
00:51:04.660 --> 00:51:05.160 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: And.
00:51:05.160 --> 00:51:21.959 Occam Wood: DNA to build with this pure light, in this pure, this pure sense, and that can lead to disease, disharmony, and dysfunction in the physical body right? And I could go on and on, the science of of DNA, and particles of light, exchanging photons of light, exchanging information, but that take it. Hold on
00:51:23.060 --> 00:51:39.299 Occam Wood: but but what happens is the the people come to me because they're struggling. They're stuck. They may be stuck in a in a cycle. They may see that there's a particular trigger that comes up especially in relationship or even business, that they, they, they constantly react in a way that they don't want to.
00:51:39.680 --> 00:51:40.200 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Right.
00:51:40.200 --> 00:51:43.640 Occam Wood: This is where we get into the difference between reacting and responding.
00:51:43.640 --> 00:51:44.330 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Funding. Yeah.
00:51:44.330 --> 00:51:47.819 Occam Wood: And you had mentioned it even in your in your chat or your blog.
00:51:47.870 --> 00:52:06.090 Occam Wood: The fact that someone can say something. But what we hear is different, right? Because it goes through these filters, and we may not be hearing our wife store our wife's voice, asking us a very logical and understandable question. We hear it come through in the voice of our sisters or our mother, in that very nit, picking and
00:52:06.090 --> 00:52:22.170 Occam Wood: and demeaning and and and and activating way. And then we respond right? Or we react that we don't think about it. We just automatically react. And and I believe responsibility. I'm not the one who start said this. I heard it somewhere, but responsibility is the ability to respond.
00:52:23.840 --> 00:52:29.960 Occam Wood: Understand that you're automatically acting, thinking, and and living in a particular way.
00:52:30.280 --> 00:52:58.279 Occam Wood: Then you can start to get curious about why you do that. Why do you react this way? Why is this same cycle keep showing up? Why is your body betraying you, even though the doctors can't find a cause. That's usually what leads people to me is the curiosity around trying to fix something right? And they maybe they've talked done the talk therapy, or maybe they've even done the Nlp. And the hypnotherapy, and they've had some improvement. Maybe they've tried drugs for the depression or for the the pain, but nothing seems to work.
00:52:58.280 --> 00:53:10.600 Occam Wood: That's when I find people coming to me is they've tried everything else on the physical, the the mental, the regular avenues, and they're ready to see if something else can work.
00:53:10.730 --> 00:53:36.977 Occam Wood: And so, as I tap in with them and their soul team, the angels, ancestors, elementals, and a cautious keepers, we can actually decipher what's true? Right? So so I act as a tuning fork. Almost I am allowed to receive that information free from the objective filter, so that I see it in that, and I and I pride myself on a neutrality lack of judgment. So when I see the thing I don't hear the story. I don't feel the results.
00:53:37.290 --> 00:53:41.219 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: And you're you're outside of it. So there's no emotional attachment either.
00:53:41.220 --> 00:53:46.170 Occam Wood: Right. So then I can bring them to that moment and help them understand what the energetic charge is on it.
00:53:46.230 --> 00:54:10.140 Occam Wood: and then, by balancing the the brain and and and and charging the physical body with light, and accessing the chakras and aligning all these things, we can really get a a good map of what the original wound was, what the pathway and how it's created, the life that they're in right now and then, ultimately either neutralize the energy from the emotions. Right? Cause you'll have like, okay, this thing happened when you were 12. What's the emotion? There?
00:54:10.840 --> 00:54:31.749 Occam Wood: We can deplete the emotional way so they can see it for the truth of what it is and not the story they've been telling, right? So that's the real. The real key of it is this reprogramming of thought from something that held you down into something that builds you up. And that's why I call it soul integration, because your soul came here for a reason right like, I truly believe this, that we are
00:54:31.750 --> 00:54:53.229 Occam Wood: eternal beings who choose to log into this video game because we want the experience of the hot and cold, the pain and the then the pleasure, the light in the dark right, and we forget that, unfortunately. And then we just run on autopilot but as we get into the autopilot and we find out what kind of programs have been installed and adopted and indoctrinated.
00:54:53.230 --> 00:55:12.859 Occam Wood: then we can actually change the parameters. We can change the programming. And we can start to change the way that people leave from that. So they have more confidence. They have more clarity, and they have a release of the energy that was holding them back, and they can invite in that part of their soul that has this answers right, that has the solutions that has the actual path.
00:55:12.860 --> 00:55:16.670 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: So 2 quick questions. How long is this session usually last?
00:55:17.000 --> 00:55:33.259 Occam Wood: I might the the the way I like to run it is a ttsi combo. So it's a deep dive. 4 h session, right, and that's that's deep. It's it's intense. But we get it's like trauma triage. It's finding the bullet removing the bullet and then patching it up as opposed to just continuing to change the dressing right.
00:55:33.260 --> 00:55:34.030 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Segment.
00:55:34.030 --> 00:55:43.729 Occam Wood: Hours, the body bar, body charging brain, balancing Chakra alignment. And during that time, as the energy is coming in, it's really illuminating some of those creepy crawlies that are hiding in the main.
00:55:43.730 --> 00:55:44.640 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Eastman.
00:55:44.640 --> 00:56:05.379 Occam Wood: You know, and then we can kinda evict them and and actually do an energetic release. I use portals, so I don't cut cords or do banishments or dissolving, I I really into it with a deep, deep compassion, understanding that even these parasites have a level of consciousness, and eat off of fear and anger and and violence. Right? So you can't come out. I'm like I wanna cast you out and blah blah blah
00:56:05.830 --> 00:56:17.310 Occam Wood: like by, but by bringing in unconditional love and deep, deep compassion. We can release these things, and people have found shifts. And then it's worth the support. Cause. Like you said that ascension path is not a straight path right.
00:56:17.310 --> 00:56:18.490 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Right, right.
00:56:18.490 --> 00:56:43.719 Occam Wood: Supporting through that, and then a 2 h follow up which is really the integration part. We we release stuff. You've had 2 weeks to see how your your reality was built on your past beliefs. How do we bring in new beliefs, and even call in different parts of your soul team different parts of alternative realities, where we're bringing in essences of who you truly are, so that you can move into the life that you ultimately desire and potentially came here to experience.
00:56:43.720 --> 00:56:53.430 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: So so real quick. Do you have just one really dramatic example that you can give the audience of someone who came to you with a certain condition, and what happened afterwards.
00:56:53.430 --> 00:56:57.687 Occam Wood: Oh, for sure, I mean, there's so many it's hard to pick one. But the most powerful one, I think.
00:56:57.920 --> 00:57:01.719 Occam Wood: is because there's people that come and say like, Well, I want to make sales.
00:57:02.340 --> 00:57:06.469 Occam Wood: They don't realize they can't make sales because they lost their voice when they were molested earlier, and then.
00:57:06.470 --> 00:57:07.200 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Friend.
00:57:07.200 --> 00:57:11.749 Occam Wood: So there's those kind of scenarios where they come for business. But they find out it's actually something deeply personal.
00:57:11.750 --> 00:57:12.580 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Right, right, right.
00:57:12.580 --> 00:57:28.583 Occam Wood: And one of the highest results I've gotten is a woman who came to me. She was in pain, and she couldn't walk. She'd been a wheelchair for 2 and a half years, and the doctors couldn't figure out what's wrong with her. She just had a thyroid surgery, and so she was really coming to me to to deal with the thyroid.
00:57:28.870 --> 00:57:34.379 Occam Wood: But as we dove into her 12 years of daily ritualistic abuse and and.
00:57:34.380 --> 00:57:34.830 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: What was it?
00:57:34.830 --> 00:57:37.290 Occam Wood: To transmute the energy off of that.
00:57:37.320 --> 00:58:02.999 Occam Wood: 2 weeks later she walked into her doctor's office on her own 2 feet. I do not work on the physical body. I'm not a doctor, so I can't treat diagnoser. But what I can do is do the energy stuff, and then the results that the side effects of that are, that the physical body starts to heal, fiber disappears, depression disappears, even eczema and body, body, body weight like massive amounts of body weight in short, periods of time.
00:58:03.000 --> 00:58:03.809 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Beginning with.
00:58:03.810 --> 00:58:10.080 Occam Wood: Cured the thing that was keeping them needing to be protected, or that lack of wanting to be seen. Right? It's so amazing
00:58:10.530 --> 00:58:13.894 Occam Wood: on a metaphysical level. It actually does affect the physical reality.
00:58:14.200 --> 00:58:27.289 Sam Liebowitz | The Conscious Consultant: Yeah, cool. Unfortunately, we're out of time. I I I wish we had another hour talk real quick.
