Welcome to another empowering and enlightening episode of the Psychics and Sidekicks Podcast! In this episode, host Shaun Bennett is joined by the remarkable Cal Melkez, a spiritual life coach, astral projection teacher, and YouTuber from Chicago, with a background in Christian upbringing. Together, they delve into the intriguing realms of astral projection, Reiki, and self-awareness, shedding light on how mindfulness and focus unlock our hidden potentials.
Cal Melkez discusses the paramount importance of focus in harnessing the full power of our minds. Sharing his own exhilarating experiences with astral projection, Cal reveals how intense focus on different realities allowed him to explore the astral planes. He unpacks the process of moving conscious awareness beyond the physical body, emphasizing the potential for everyone to achieve this through dedication and practice.
Cal's passion for Reiki takes center stage as he describes it as a channel to universal energy brimming with unconditional love. From heavenly encounters to profound spiritual experiences, Reiki has transformed Cal’s understanding of subtle energies. He explains how combining Reiki with astral projection, inspired by ancient Egyptian and Mesopotamian cultures, can forge connections with guardian angels or astral echoes via an astral cord.
Shaun and Cal explore the significance of mindfulness and being present in the moment as key to self-exploration.

Overcoming limiting belief systems and nurturing the imagination are highlighted as essential steps for anyone aiming to expand their spiritual horizons.
For those feeling stuck or blocked, Cal provides practical advice on dismantling mental barriers and investing in self-belief. The discussion underscores that everyone is born with innate abilities, which can be rediscovered by shedding societal constraints and remaining open-minded.
