H i my beautiful angels happy
Motivational Monday and welcome to our
journey to self-love today we are gonna
talk with a man that served the army
that is very spiritual and overcame
post-traumatic stress disorder his name
is Paul and he's such an inspiration in
this interview he shows the power within
being open about your feelings and that
it's okay for a man to not be okay and
to admit it he shares with us how he
overcame it
and how he changed his life completely
so make sure to grab a coffee or tea and
enjoy watching
thank you for doing this amazing interview with me
for us all
share something a little bit more about
yourself please
Paul O'Halloran is my name and our
company is Pathway Teaching i'm a Shannon
I'm a spiritual healer I work a lot with
the elements with the water elements the
nature elements the spirits or that kind
of thing and I guess what brought me
into the work long time ago was my
depression I was in a very very bad way
with the whole nine yards I'd been in
the Army and served abroad and came back
with post-traumatic stress at that time
people didn't really know what post-traumatic stress was
probably did but they didn't recognize it so it brought
me to a whole journey of being in a deep dark
place with my soul and felt very alone
very isolated misunderstood
lots of times when you're trying to make things better
you make them worse and you just you
know you just want a kinder R but I'd
one saving grace at a daughter of nine
years of aged LeAnn and every time I
came home she would put her arms around
me and tell me she loved me
she would sit on my knee and hold me and
I believed that she was send there to keep
me here she was the only reason I stay
at that time and then I met
I'm not saying fortunes to me but he
was probably sent to heal me her doctor
Harvey Wasserman was a psychologist or a
psychiatrist I actually don't know the
difference from one to the other but I
tell you straight here and now he saved my life he could see me for who I was or
what I was he knew I was a shaman
from early on I knew what I was going
through cuz he just when I drew people
like that for an America and one day he
left his hand on my chest I was crying
i was in a really bad place and he just said
Paul he said you know we can save the world
till you save yourself that was the first
day I actually seen the light again and
after that things started to get better
so that's my story
Wow yeah that's also it's so important
for doing this interview because you
went through it yourself you have so
much knowledge to share on that for me
what what for me what comes out of it is
like you from the Army and a lot of
times people from the Army tend to like
especially men like I'm a strong person
I don't have problems and then you come
back home you hear it a lot about the
post-traumatic stress how was it for you
as a man in that position realizing you
had all those feelings and in the same
time have to present yourself as a
strong man how was that feeling back then
you're dead right because when the
army teach you they teach you to become
a machine in one form or another
and there's no emotions attached to that
machine and then what happens is when
you leave the army you come out and from
being in a very kind of team organized
tight of organization to to being a civilian
again and al lot of ex-military people
would agree with I have talked to would
agree with me in that they feel so alone not
alone having post-traumatic stress and
being depressed or whatever you want to
call it also I had to wake up to start
getting in touch with my emotions and
and I think that was really really part
of the problem I started feeling things
that there and then the fact that I'm
spiritual there was an awakening going
on so there was I was bombarded with
stuff and the other thing that I found
very hard was when you came out into
civilian street and you shook your hands
with someone they would break their word
where our word was our bombed if we said
something that was it so there was
there was a whole heap of stuff
happening and the way I would describe
myself in many many senses was I was a
fish out of the water then you said
about expressing your feelings then your
thing no you didn't do that because even
in the military if you were afraid in in
in a situation you didn't express your
fear because that's not the way things
were done you held on to all that stuff
yourself it was oniy i think when i went
to the psychologist psychiatrist dr.
Harvey Wasserman that he unlocked a lot
of that stuff in me and started to get
me to express and and you know you found
out it wasn't a weak thing to do to get
in touch with your emotion but I guess
it took me about five years to really
really commit to my thing and to
express so I had a friend two years ago
that jumped in front of a train in
Coventry we had served together
something like thirty years ago and I
was only reconnecting with them and and
to meet him and we were to meet after
Christmas and he committed suicide so
that made me look at guys that I'd
served and guys that have served in the army
since so I'm actually after joining
the ex service men's association in this
country to try to
bring more awareness to that fact and to
help these guys you see when you talk
about the military the only guys that
remember you know if we were in battle
or if we did something or someone got
killed the only people that really
remember them people 20 30 years later
that are people that have been with them and
their families everyone else forgets
because of too busy living even though
you're doing it for a country
and then when a guy ends up
with post-traumatic stress ends up
alcoholic ends up a drug addict he's thrown
on the street people don't see what the
pain and the stuff behind that
they not acknowledge it basically
they really don't wanna see that it's sort of
their fault they put a little bit into
it like you said you're not allowed to
show emotion you have to be a robot and
and and that's not only you know I mean
actually everywhere nowadays we are just
getting designed to be robots like just
work work work and don't show that you
are weak or emotional that that doesn't
fit in the society of nowadays and and
that's why I believe people were getting
deeper and deeper in the hole of
depressions or whatever they go through
because they don't see an out way so you
mentioned when you went to the doctor
and he put the hand on you and you
it opened up for you what's the hardest
thing in the beginning for you to adapt
with being aware of your emotions
be aware of that I had them was all these
sadness fear or these energy started to
come up that I had suppressed for so
long and the thing was maybe the hardest
thing for me was to start to acknowledge
them you know I I think that was very
very very hard see and then you're very
alone these are coming up and and you
don't allow yourself to express them do
you know what I mean crying was a
weakness and I learned I learned to cry
it was good thing for a man to learn to cry
even Mellie can make me cry now and again
which is that do you know which is
a good thing because even even I know I
know the symptoms of depression now and
I know when the dark cloud is common and
I know how to you know you never get
overexcited because the higher up you
go you be down low the next day
How did you got to that awareness because that's one thing I
always share with people the first step
I find what you need to do is be aware
of your feelings being aware of you thought so
how what is your trick what do you do
that you know up front already that it's coming
I can feel the only way I can
describe it to you it doesn't happen
that often now I haven't had it for a
while but it's kind of like you feel
that dark cloud coming in and you
start your energy you start to go down
low and really negative thoughts come in
right and what happens you start feeding
that negative energy that pulled you
down so trick I was taught a lot of
years ago when you start thinking
negative things about yourself I'm not
good enough I'm aware of this the minute
that thought comes in change it to a
positive thought and what happens is you
know if your negative energy pulls you
down and if you if you if you think
positive the energy pulls you up
another thing that happens you see in my
work I do a lot of land and house
clearing and stuff like that you
know energy ways but you will always
find sometimes over the beds you'll find
negative energy thoughts now what
happens I give you an example say you're
outside and you're running to get
something and you forget what you came
in for and you run back to the same spot
and you remember the reason you remember
is because you left the thought form
behind you the thought form is an energy
you walk back into your platform you
remember then you come back and you get
what you need so so when I am in bed at
night sometimes I'll have to pay this
field in the morning and I have to do this
I have to do that
well I never get this don't owe me a man
doesn't like me the woman does really
all that kind of stuff for now you've have
all that negative energy above your bed
so you could have been
watching a good film lovely night now
doing all these things you go to bed
high when your going to your bed feeling yourself
going down again the reason for that
is because you pick up on the negative thought
form and and and and that's why lots of
times from people that are in depressive
energy especially staying in bed late
in the morning to get up in a bad mood
because all these form all these thought
forms are feeding into the head so
that's why it's important to change the
forms not alone then you're leaving
positive thought forms all over the house
all over the place and you're constantly
walking into them as giving you good
good feeling all the time
so basically the best thing to do is develop a good
atmosphere everywhere you are
yeah a negative thought form change it to a
positive and then it get stronger and stronger
and stronger and positive affirmations
for yourself so what happens you leave
that energy in that place as well so when
you walk in you in a feel-good factor
your picking up more energy that you've
left behind you
you know we've often gone into places
and you feel the energy really down in
the place so that can be to do with the
thought forms in the place of the people that are in it
and and you see to bring in a stage
further we we we are like a fast food
outlet to be honest with you because
what actually happens is when you have
negative thoughts forms energy feed often of
thought forms what they need you to do is to
stay in that space because your food
believe it or believe it not hat that's that's my
training from Africa so when I
work with people that are in that space
the things I need to do is to clear all
the energies away from them first so
that I just am working with the person
and and and then when you working with
the person you can work with their mind
and with their stuff
one way of combat there's a one way for
a person to to not feed it it's like
what I said already is to positive thought forms and
the feel-good thing and when you connect
with the positive energy
not alone is it good enough to think it
you have to feel it you have to feel it
and when you feel it if you hold that
feeling for 16 seconds they say it
connects that energy out there and it
brings it back in forth to you so you
know lots of times when people are
depressed and we know this by being their
you say oh you get a positive feeling
and feel it you see doubt comes in you know
what I mean cuz we're in that very low
space but start to visualize and believe
that you are a you are a beautiful
person and a beautiful soul you are
unique and everyone is and everyone has
a story to tell and and the depression
and the stuff that people are going
through is part of the journey it's in
in shamanism we call it it's the
shedding of the skin so when the crab
you know is in the shell the shell gets
too small for him he has to come out of
the shell go in under the rock and wait
for the new shelf to grow so can you
imagine how vulnerable he's in that
space right so depression to me is
something can be something similar so
it's it's shedding the skin and letting
go and it means that the conscious and
the subconscious at a level where we we
have this you know we have this doubt
all of a sudden there's realizations
sometimes in life were problem in alarm
and in my spiritual journey thats the way
it was I was a rugby player and I was a
soldier can you imagine me being a
spiritual healer
yeah so how did that come up
I think part of the depression was part of my thing
because there was conflict in in me in
that I I perceived a community see me
in a way so what you try to do was to
fit into that little niche
and sometimes your a square pig in a round hole but you
felt that too and you find it hard to
fit into that space so we're always
trying to conform and to be but it's not
really who we are
so then the conflict comes in the mind
that sometimes leads to depression
because we're not walking in our truth
or in our faith and I believe that when we
got to that energy the death what we
call a death rebirth that's what we're
leaving the old behind and were
welcome to that new place to be that new person
I was curious do you
nowadays you're in a very good space and
of course you said there was a whole
journey did you started having routines
just getting let you stay in the
positive state
the routine for me initially was
I had to change from negative thoughts to positive thoughts was a big
big one and to visualize and and and and
sometimes meditates in that space to to
to bring me into that thing and to
change it but I go back to dr. Harvey
Wasserman who when he died a couple of
months ago he was 92 when he died and
two days before he died still healing
people amazing man you know and
when he put his hand on my belly that day and I
started to see the Sun I started to
climb out of the hole and a and I had a
I had I had I had a mantra like in in
that too as well is that well tomorrow
will be better than today
tomorrow I just think that I am
getting better now and each day will
be better so when I could see the stuff
coming in the real heaviness and the
dark the cloud I could sense it coming in
once I was aware of it I was able to
keep it away do you know what I mean I
just I I just want but thank God in the
last five six years maybe more ten years
I haven't had I'm fairly good I'm good
you are confident in yourself and back
then you were in a totally different
area what would you say to that person
I often look back there and I used to say
how the hell did I get through it
that's I dressed in black I couldn't
look in the eye
I wouldn't shave for days I wouldn't
shower for days I was smelly I was
everything I had absolutely no regard
for myself who I was or what I was and
and when I look back on that I just I
just I just I just don't know how I got
through it but I did because someone said they
loved me my little daughter because
every time I as a fella said I went to
the well I thought of her
and how disappointed she would be and
that was that that was I believe she was
sent to hold me on the earth you know and
and and that's you know I think that's
the key to a lot of things someone is
suffering from depression really deep
depression if there's someone that could
just put their arms around them and say
I love you
and I'm with ya that means a lot because most of the time
we're 100% alone aren't we
yes
you seem to be very alone in that space and I think a
lot of people I even think of my friends
and good army friends and things they
weren't around but then again I didn't
ask for help either it is but sometimes
asking for help is very important isn't
It is but sometimes
we're so deep in that in that energy and
in that place and you're very alone and
isolated and as you said with us
ex-military anyway maybe there are other
people in other things especially men
and not in touch with our emotions not
wanting people to see you're vulnerable
afraid or whatever it's not
the macho thing to ask for help do you know
but I never asked anyone I never
crossed my mind to ask anyone for help
know that you mentioned that you know
but you see also a depression and Mellie
just wrote it here to remind me as I
said to you earlier when I touched on it
about how it was part of my soul journey
to to become a shaman and their is a lot of
people out there to are going through the
soul journey that will be listening to
this sometimes it's it's the soul our
soul or ourselves not listening to the
call of spirit to do the work so there is
conflict within the thing and in this
country it was a big thing for me and
you can see how liberal Ireland is now
we have a gay President and all these
kind a gay Prime Minister all these kind of
things going on but to walk into my into
my truth then into my place you know to
connect with the energy of who I am what
I am
and to be in alignment with my true self
my spirit or whatever and and they say
in the in the spiritual realms as well
lots of times when were sick were were
not aligned to our spiritual selves or
thing so that can be the conflict
I really believe that when we focus on the
light that that will give us power to
believe in ourselves but how did you did
you ever had a feeling that you were not
good enough
yes
but how did you come
over that
the day Harvey Wasserman
laid his hand on my belly
my chest and said to me that you can't
heal the world till you heal yourself
I started 200 that was the first day I
started to believe again and don't ask
me what power was in his words or how it
that was that was the flip if you
understand what I'm saying if you
understand what I'm saying and then when
I started on my shamanic journey and
do my shamanic work I think that that's
really health me does where you know I just a
story I had one of the things on the
post-traumatic stress I used to wake up
every night and the whole bed had been
wet from the sweat from the trauma and
that was because I had a couple
near-death experiences in Lebanon in the
army and the one the worst one I had
like I was trained for combat I was
trained for that kind of thing bullets
and shells and stuff didn't worry me
because I was but a guy put a gun
to my head one day and that's what
triggered my post-traumatic stress and
only for I had a machine gun sitting on my knee
sitting in the Land Rover going to one of their
checkpoints and whatever made me laod
the submachine gun spirit or God or
someone because otherwise they'd had
blown my head off and I like said to
you polite so my dream was I was running
around their roofs every night running
away if this fella who was follow me with
a gun he was trying to shoot
and I was running so I said I had
learned Reiki initially before I did
shamanism so I used to work with the
Reiki every night religiously doing
doing the chakras clearing the chakras
and then then I did that for a year or
more and then one night my commanding
officer what I got great respect for came to
me in the dream this apology time you
left the army behind you I never had a
trauma after that was manic stress trauma
after that
that worked for me and then when I got
into the shamanism I was able to work at
a deeper level with the stuff and whit
the traumas and lots of the things but
that's not to say that there's some
of the trauma maybe still there I
don't know you know what really
surprised me one or two guys that I
thought were maybe stronger than me
in a way I asked them
about one of the nights that we got hit
off they couldn't I could remember more
about myself that they could remember you know
you and I believe what we do with these
traumas and stuff we buried them so deep
within ourselves but but they come back
as disease again if we don't deal with them
what is the 3 tips you would say to somebody that is
coming back home from combat that they
should do like because normally you come
home you act like nothing is going on
but there is a lot going on you went
through a lot and there's a lot of
memories a lot of things that you've
done or what happened so what is the
best three tips that you can give
somebody that comes back from combat so
they can already start being aware and
being open about what happened
I actually think I'll be honest with you
when I came back I didn't think there
was anything wrong with me you know do
you know and I think that was the big
thing I didn't I know I was different
from the experiences but basically I
didn't think there was anything wrong
with me I think what guys should do that
it doesn't have to be combat it can be
trauma and other different senses like I
have a friend that that was badly beaten
say he was attacked
that'll bring post-traumatic stress you
know and it can bring depression and
whole other things like that but you
know it is to be able to go to someone
medically psychologist psychiatrist or
something and and maybe just kind of
relate the experiences to them of what
happened what you felt at the time
and and and and they are the people
that can help to to pry out to see if
their stuff but people I think people
see don't forget we're human beings
the second thing if you're in a
relationship with someone or other
husband wife or whatever and if you
started to get aggressive where normally
you wouldn't be aggressive and things
like that that's a trigger that that
means there's something there's something
wrong somewhere the third thing is that
I would think if you become very closed
yet and if you find the stuff happening
with you and it happens particularly
would mean if you're not able to express
in some way or something another and to
talk it out go and see someone that you can
talk to you know at the end of the day
it's your health and you know when I look
back at that time that I was depressed
and and I was in that space that was
four or five years of my life wasted
really if I could've got starter earlier
but maybe I had to go through that
process I don't know but thank God I'm
fine now and here sitting and talking to you
I do understand you I had that feeling to like the times
in my life was a waste of time it is something
that we go through so we can help others
we understand others I really see it like that
now
I wish of course to do it different but
everything happens for a reason
you learn a lot and you have a lot of
sympathy because of that if I'm correct
100% yes you do
simply because I I don't know what the
blocks they put people in I am
not a psychologist a psychiatrist but
I actually know that when the person is
sitting in that place that the person
I've been there that's that's the only
way and and I know they're feeling and
their stuff do you know what's important
I think and I find it when you tell your
story to them and how you've been trough
that what you've been they start to
realize they are not the only one doing it
are in that space and that's the time
when we were in that space we thought
were the only person
you know we're not alone and that's the
thing and I think even by talking to
someone like that
and share their story your story and
your feelings and your stuff kinda they
look at you the same as me afcores I am you
will be too can I share two books with
yeah yeah yeah of course two books
can you see that
yeah "excuse me your life is waiting" amazing
that's a very good book and this the
other one is "Bruce Lipton the biology of belief"
and why do you believe those two books are so recommended to read
this one is all about
positivity and the stuff and this is
kind of matching the science and
bringing the science world and the
spiritual world together and it also
talks about sike in this book sike
is a very powerful tool that can be used
as well and the guy that wrote this book
is Bruce Lipton and he's the reason I
got to the Cree Indians and he's the
he's the man that's the bridge between
the red world and and the white world
and and the reason the the Indians in
the Cree Nation that in Canada there
that I work with are you see we lost
everything here in this country and how
indigenous people all over the world
last last lot of things Indians lost
everything but they kept on to their
tradition their spiritual ways their
respect for the earth and the stuff that
they work with so I believe why there's
a lot of depression and a lot of stuff
is because we're not we're not connected
anymore do you know what I mean we are
disconnect so so it's it's by us
being connected like you look at farmers
looking out the window here big green
fields they're going around on their
motorbikes of like things in the
feels they don't walk on the fields
anymore everything is done with
machinery there's no connection with the
earth there's is not there's not you see people
are walking in the parks they are power walk
they don't slow down and connect with the
energy so like you said earlier on how
you ran away from everything I did the
same you know do you know what I mean
it's about facing yourself I had a panic
attack
one day and that made me look at myself
and it was some a spiritual thing and
what actually happened in the panic I
went to see a medium she said what are you
looking for I said I'm looking for
clarity what kind of clarity
you tell me I don't know basically told me if
I didn't do the work full time and take
up the spiritual work full time that I
would be dead within a year and I knew
when she told me that she told me the
truth
so so that's why I got the panic attack
you see I kept running all the time I
walked from early morning to late at
night there was no work I'd make work I
kept running for myself and running from
my food you understand that too
but if people want to connect with you
