Can a canceled comedian make a comeback?

Can Louis C.K. make a comeback after c*m*ng all over those plants? If one looks closely, it seems he's already sneaking back with a special. He's a damaged and vulnerable patriarch. But he's funny and contributed much to comedy with his old show. It influenced comedic greats like Sarah Silverman. So maybe we should excuse those in the Court Jester role even if they're perverts pushing the envelope while truth-telling, whistleblowing, and improving society by calling us out on our hypocrisy. Here are some of the funniest moments, the best of his defunct show according to Laugh Planet.

Entangled in Darkness: How to Find the Light

Deborah King

Master healer and urban shaman, [and sexual abuse survivor], Deborah King (DeborahKingCenter.com),  was a successful attorney in her 20s when a diagnosis of cancer sent her on a search for truth.

It radically changed her life. Unwilling to undergo invasive (and harmful) surgery, she turned to alternative medicine. She had an amazing remission at the hands of a healer. Leaving the corporate arena for the mysterious world of healers, sages, and shamans, King mastered ancient and modern healing systems, ultimately developing a powerful healing technique of her own.

 

Her latest book, Entangled in Darkness: Seeking the Light, explores the purpose of the age-old battle between light and dark that is waged within us. 

INTERVIEW (9-12-13) The Aware Show’s special guest this week is spiritual teacher, health-and-wellness expert, and New York Times best-selling author Dr. Deborah King. Take an excursion into the inner sanctum of the "soul," our deepest sense of self, to help us understand why we are here.
 
What is the purpose of the age-old battle between light and dark? It is being waged within us all. She will help deepen our insight into how and why we might be entangled in darkness and provide us with practical tools to infuse our lives with light. King talks about techniques to clear negative energies, dark entities, cordings, and intentional and unintentional attacks. More

The Ways of Karma and Reincarnation

Denise Linn (who will be appearing at the I CAN DO IT Ignite Conference) is a bestselling author of 16 books, has researched healing traditions from cultures around the world for more than 35 years. Her spiritual journey began as a teenager when she had a near-death experience (NDE) after being hit by a car and shot by an unknown driver-gunman. The revelations she received on the “other side” and the subsequent amazing healing of her wounds led Denise to become an internationally respected healer, writer, and teacher.

• LISTEN (limited availability)
  

Interview: Denise Linn, author of the bestselling Sacred Space and the award-winning Feng Shui for the Soul, talks with Aware Show hostess Lisa Garr about her amazing NDE. She shares how to embrace your karma, past lives, and imagination for healing in this very life.

• I Can Do It! Conference 2011
  
• Pasadena Convention Center
  
• October 14-16, 2011

"Pasadena is the Varanasi (Benares) of the United States," according to Paramahansa Yogananda. The Dalai Lama and Thich Nhat Hanh visit nearly every year as many Eastern masters before them did.

Now join a line of incredibly popular spiritual materialists, world-famous New Age thinkers, urban shamans, and Hay House authors for a weekend retreat in Pasadena!

Join Hay House for a day or the entire weekend! The conference features Colette Baron-Reid, Joan Z. Borysenko, Ph.D., Gregg Braden, Sonia Choquette, Dr. Wayne W. Dyer, Debbie Ford, Louise L. Hay, Robert Holden, Ph.D., John Holland, Deborah King, Brad Lamm, Denise Linn, Bruce H. Lipton, Ph.D., Dr. Christiane Northrup, Cheryl Richardson, Caroline Sutherland, Eldon Taylor, Sandra Anne Taylor, Reid Tracy, Doreen Virtue, Brian L. Weiss, M.D., Dr. Darren R. Weissman, Marianne Williamson.

It's strictly a coincidence that all of the featured authors are white or Jewish, not prejudice at Hay House. Things were different in the 1940s! It's not like unintentional bias gets pointed out to the octogenarian publisher by her authors. Who dares rock the boat when there is still so much money (abundance) to be made? Happy Birthday, Louise Hay! (She turns 85 on Oct. 8, 2011). Go

Benefits of Daily Meditation (radio)

Deborah King, Ph.D.

Ever daydreamed of turning back the clock to a more youthful, energetic, carefree time in life? Or perhaps having a magical cosmic Undo button to erase certain effects that have accumulated over time — from stress, abuse, or other erosive habits which leave us with less than perfect health or a waning enthusiasm for life?

• LISTEN: Through the Meditation Portal (September 15, 2010) Meditation is for everyone! Deborah will discuss meditative practices and the beneficial results on health, well-being, mind, brain, and spirit. This show is for anyone feeling stressed, crazy/busy, anxious! Listen live

Science and religion alike have studied and documented the numerous benefits of meditation. They reveal that meditation has a positive effect on people suffering from, or at risk for, many physical and mental health conditions.

Meditation expands consciousness by helping us get into the space or gap between thoughts. It taps into the incredible energy that exists there: There is a thought, then another thought, but between the two, there’s a little space. According to the ancients, the space between thoughts is the portal to the infinite intelligence of the universe, or Source. Call it "Buddha Nature," "God," "Universal Energy," "Spirit," or even the elusive "Unified Field."

What's Your Favorite Meditation?

Text: Holly Lebowitz Rossi (BeliefNet.com, 8/4/09)

I've been a less-than-successful meditator lately, finding myself caught in a session-ending swirl of thoughts every time I've gone to sit quietly for even a few minutes. So I think it's time to kick up my game and find an appropriate meditation CD, download, or even DVD.

Here's the thing: I have a lousy history with such products. The last one I had was a heart meditation that left me gasping for breath. My heart felt like it was going to fly out of my chest. Before that, I tried a chakra-cleansing meditation that got faster and more manic as it moved up the chakra ladder. I was laughing out loud by the end, which was entertaining but not exactly theta-wave inducing.

Other than enjoying my teacher's short, beautiful guided meditations in yoga class, I've always kept my own meditation counsel, until now. It's guidance time. My first stop might be one of the:

• The health and wellness downloads Beliefnet offers through our partnership with iAmplify
• The breathing exercises from Dr. Andrew Weil are intriguing
• Jack Kornfeld's "Meditation for Beginners"
• Louise Hay's "Meditations for Personal Healing" from the Meditation downloads list.

I suspect the best course will be to try a few and see which one is the best fit for me. More>>
