The Lessons from Loss PodcastThe Lessons from Loss PodcastEpisode 44 - The Finder of Lost Things with Hannah VeltenIn this episode I chat with Hannah Velten about the extraordinary experience of losing her brother Christian who went missing in Africa as a young man, and reconnecting with him in spirit many years later after she gave up the search for him and lost all hope.  Now working in partnership with those living and in spirit Hannah and Christian bring together spirit mediums to perform rescue circles to help release stuck spirits from their earth-bound state, guide them to the Light  and clear up global energies in the process.   This is a remarkable story,  I hope you enjoy it. ...2023-07-071h 14Futility ClosetFutility ClosetA Victorian Hippopotamus In 1850, England received a distinguished guest: A baby hippopotamus arrived at the London Zoo.

After working for 18 years with cancer patients, Louise has experienced the life force leaving bodies and transitioning into peace, love and light, while patients' families have been left with their grief. Louise has seen cultural differences in mourning rituals and feels our Western culture needs to re-vision death, life-after-death and grief so that we are able to grieve more freely and have support in place to teach people how to best navigate the transformative process of grieving - for themselves and for their loved ones in Spirit.
