"...so when we come into balance within our own bodies, within our own energy center, what we are sending out, what we're receiving--this balance brings us to a new understanding where we realize..." 
Welcome to episode 63 of Roll With Peace, In Mind featuring another installment of 'Are You On The Right Train? Riding On The Urge' featuring folks who have chosen to follow their hearts, dreams and passions. They did not and do not listen to the nay-sayers or to the 'it can't be done-ners' but step out on Faith, Passion and Intention, not allowing fears to derail them.
Laurelle Rethke has been using nature’s medicine for over 25 years. From crystals, essential oils, sound and movement to energy healing, meditation and astrology—she is most well known for her work with crystals—drawing upon her studies from five different crystal healing lineages and teaching about the metaphysical use of stones since 2009. Known as a spiritual alchemist, bridge-builder and crystal maven, she is deeply grounded in an earth-centered consciousness and helps to bring in new understanding on health, healing, and spiritual alignment.

"...he wants the world to know his passion for his culture--he wants the world to get to know what the Inca culture is about through their music..." 
This interview with Jose Vitancio Umeres comes to you from the U.S, Colombia, and Cusco, Peru! Presenting my FIRST bi-lingual interview! En Español y Ingles, in Spanish and English.

Born in Cuzco, Jose Vitancio Umeres graduated in Administration and International Business, a musician specializing in flute and recognized as a Quechua ethnomusicologist by the San Antonio Abad del Cuzco National University.

His research is based on the work of prominent specialists such as D'Harcourt, Bolaños, Aretz and Hickmann.

Now I am very happy to say, he's got multiple ways to contact him and showcase his amazing work, so happy to be able present him here, look below for all of his contact info!!
