Discussion: UFOs, Past Lives, Hypnotherapy Our guest tonight is UFO researcher, experiencer and Quantum Hypnotherapist Martin Rivera. This is a technique first developed by highly regarded author/researcher Dolores Cannon. Martin has been studying the subject of UFOs & ETs for many years. He uses the technique of Quantum Hypnotherapy to help experiencers remember and process their otherworldly encounters. He is certified in Quantum Healing Hypnosis and Past Lives at the Dolores Cannon Academy in Arkansas. He is a co-founder of “Quantum Balance,” a healing arts center with transformational programs based on Long Island, Ny. He also does past life regression therapy (and sometimes a future life,) sound & light healing, emotional healing therapy, pineal gland activation, connecting with your higher self, meeting your spirit guides, accessing your Akashic Records and Reiki healing. Fluent in Spanish, he’s translated a number of books into Spanish, including Dolores Cannons “The Custodians,” and “Keepers of the Garden” and many others. He has worked with many people, authors and experiencers, aiding them in their journey of spiritual discovery. As he says, “I help you to connect with your higher self for healing mind-body spirit.” Many people recall past lives reaching back to Atlantis or Lemuria, or even a past-life as an ET. Others recall ET encounters as young children. The possibilities are endless. And of course, Martin has had some astounding UFO experiences of his own. This is going to be so much fun.

Lee is the Host of Spaced Out Radio's "Element 115," Friday evenings from 8pm-9pm Pacific. Lee's fascination with the unknown was sparked in his childhood, growing up in Washington State. Camping and hiking trips with his parents instilled in him a love for the outdoors, while his grandfather, a chief engineer at Boeing, ignited his interest in UFOs with captivating slides of sightings near Washington D.C. Influenced by his father and grandfather's passion for photography, Lee developed a keen eye for capturing life's moments. However, it wasn't until he began experiencing waking dreams that he stumbled upon a new purpose. Seeking answers, Lee joined a Meetup group for abductees and began working with Dr. Janet Colli. This journey led him to SUFON (Seattle UFO Network), where he met Tom Sanger, who gifted him his first night vision camera. Lee's first UFO sighting, captured at Mt. Baker, lasted an astonishing 15 minutes and sparked an unrelenting drive to master camera technology and capture evidence of the unknown. As a founding member of UFOITEAM, Lee's passion continued to grow. He later branched out to form "Ander and Lee on the Trail," where he pushes the boundaries of innovation, striving to uncover evidence of UFOs and Bigfoot. Thank you for tuning into The Light Gate.

Our guest tonight is UFO researcher, experiencer and Quantum Hypnotherapist Martin Rivera This is a technique first developed by highly regarded author/researcher Dolores Cannon. Martin has been studying the subject of UFOs & ETs for many years. He uses the technique of Quantum Hypnotherapy to help experiencers remember and process their otherworldly encounters. He is certified in Quantum Healing Hypnosis and Past Lives at the Dolores Cannon Academy in Arkansas. He is a co-founder of "Quantum Balance," a healing arts center with transformational programs based on Long Island, Ny. He also does past life regression therapy (and sometimes a future life,) sound & light healing, emotional healing therapy, pineal gland activation, connecting with your higher self, meeting your spirit guides, accessing your Akashic Records and Reiki healing. Fluent in Spanish, he's translated a number of books into Spanish, including Dolores Cannons "The Custodians," and "Keepers of the Garden" and many others. He has worked with many people, authors and experiencers, aiding them in their journey of spiritual discovery. As he says, "I help you to connect with your higher self for healing mind-body spirit." Many people recall past lives reaching back to Atlantis or Lemuria, or even a past-life as an ET. Others recall ET encounters as young children. The possibilities are endless. And of course, Martin has had some astounding UFO experiences of his own. This is going to be so much fun Thank you for tuning into The Light Gate.
