137: Complex Creatures in a Complex World (with Brittney Baxter Dameron)

In this episode of The Activity Continues, host Amy and her co-hosts welcome Brittany Baxter Damron, a mental health therapist with insights into mediumship and paranormal phenomena.

Brittany discusses her therapeutic approaches, such as EMDR and ego state parts work, and how they relate to understanding and processing trauma. She also connects these methods to episodes of 'The Dead Files,' exploring concepts like PK manifestations, possession, and the influence of energy on mental and spiritual health.

The conversation touches on various aspects of psychology, spirituality, and shared personal experiences, aiming to provide listeners with a deeper understanding of the integration between these realms.

This is surely one of our more scienc-y episodes but we still have a great time and a lot of laughs. AND we do connect this to The Dead Files!

So, grab your crystals, and join us where… The Activity Continues.

And remember, neurons that fire together, wire together!

 

We didn’t find anything we thought deserved a content warning, except that we use colorful language.

 

The Activity Continues is a paranormal podcast where soul friends, Amy, Megan, and AP chat about ghost stories, haunts, dreams, and other supernatural and paranormal stuff including the TV show, The Dead Files. Our recaps are full of recurring jokes about recurring tropes. 

We also occasionally do interviews with people from the metaphysical world, as well as Dead Files clients.

Sometimes we get a little scientific. We enjoy trying to come up with possible explanations for some of the things that the clients experience. But this by no means indicates that we do not believe the clients or are invalidating their experiences. We do believe.
