The Way Forward Podcast
The Way Forward educates, empowers, and unites people from all walks of life in pursuit of health, liberty, and awareness. One of our favorite podcast series that covers topics on really anything you can imagine. Alec Zeck does a great job of asking deeper questions of our current status quo and paving the way to move from a place of grounded awareness to build a new way of living in light. We like to think of it of all the pills, the black pill, the blue pill, the red pill and ultimately the golden pill of being sovereign humans living from a place of soul and spirit. They are building a community to connect people to meet others in their physical community as well, which we feel is the most important thing we can do right now. We recommend just going down the list of episodes and seeing what calls to you.

Pam Gregory
Pam Gregory is a luminous being of light putting out heartfelt, spiritual content. She comes from an astrological perspective to help guide and inform us during these times. She does new moon, full moon and astrological podcasts on her own, and she also interviews from amazing people from all walks of life. We think of Alec Zeck as the head and Pam Gregory the heart.

blue light blockers
Evening exposure to blue light sends a “daytime” signal to the brain, which may disrupt the body’s natural sleep cycles. The biggest sources are the devices we use every day — computer screens, phones, LED lighting, TVs, and even the light inside the fridge all emit high levels of stimulating blue light.
Even small amounts of blue light may interfere with melatonin production and impact circadian rhythms.
Blue light blockers have been a game changer for Alicia.
There are a lot of glasses promoting blue light blocking. True 100% blue light blocking doesn’t happen unless the glasses are 440nm or more. Be mindful of this when considering true blue light blockers for night time use. If you aren’t getting 100% blue light blocking, then they will not work.
To be successful with blue light blocking with night time lens, you start wearing them as soon as it gets dark or at least 4 hours before you plan to go to bed.
Bedtime Breathwork
As we lie down for bed, with our eye masks on, we take 5-7 deep breaths emphasizing the out breath for at least two count longer than the in breath. This helps to slow the heart rate down, clear the mind, and calm the body. We then go into giving thanks for everything we can think of to end our day in gratitude. Asking for guidance and clearing. Followed by 5 - 7 deep breaths. Usually by the end of the last breath cycle we are asleep or close to it. If still pretty awake, try breathing 5 inhale count and 6 out breath count.
