James Bean: I Dare You To Live a Positive Life

I recently interviewed James Bean, from SPIRITUAL AWAKENING on HealthyLife.net. We had a brilliant conversation - see how this influences you. I dare you to take James' dare!

Debbi:  What is the greatest lesson you've learned?

James: To be relaxed, content to be myself and not bothered by what other people think....to be genuine, authentic, staying in touch with my vision and passion, never giving up on that vision....ever...no matter what.

Debbi: What is something you are deeply grateful for?

James: Am very grateful for the Internet revolution of the 90's up to the present. Gone are the dark days of all our freedom of speech and creativity being tethered to the veto-power of a few narrow-minded media gatekeepers with their five designated categories of: sports talk, news talk, rock, country, and top-40 radio! "I'm sick and tired of hearing things From uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded hypocritics All I want is the truth. Just gimme some truth I've had enough of reading things By neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians All I want is the truth Just gimme some truth" -- John Lennon, lyrics from "Gimme Some Truth" The new networking power of the Internet has represented a kind of greater legalization of free speech,spirituality, and musical diversity like nothing else! HealthyLifeNet founded by Linda Mackenzie is a great example of this, with an oasis of positive programming that makes the world a better place.

Debbi: What's the most important thing you do (or be) to keep your life positive?

James: Two things actually: 1) Meditation, which provides repose, insight, inner wisdom, and a renewed spiritual charge, and 2), the wisdom of the "Sages of the Ages", the inspiration and guidance of all those mystics, masters, saints and luminaries of the world religions and schools of spirituality.

Debbi: If you could DARE the listeners to do anything that will create positive change for them, what will you dare them to do today?

James: Choose to become vegan. Just start transitioning to a vegan diet. It's never too late to learn new things about food, nutrition and the healing effects of a plant-based diet. Your future self will be glad you did.

Visionaries: Continue Taking Steps Forward

by Debbi Dachinger, Dare To Dream Radio Host, Wed. 11am PT www.healthylife.net

"Visionary: thinking about or planning the future with imagination or wisdom."

We who are visionaries take steps and continue to believe in our dreams no matter what. We believe with eyes wide open, trusting in a greater good because it’s our road – it’s our path to explore and create.  Trust allows us to proceed. In spite of not knowing all the how’s and outcomes, we trust and step forward anyway. We are about the business of change.

If you’re carrying a sad “life is hell” story - let go of it. Choose to release any inflated, sad story. Help create the real story. A positive story, and the sooner you do this - the better. You need your precious energy. More good is on its way than you could possibly imagine. So dare to believe and live that story.

Your dream is worth every effort. It’s what you’re here for. Now maybe you’re thinking that it is taking too much time. What else besides taking steps towards your dreams and shedding limits are you here for? So if you have a dream that lights up your switchboard, then activate devotion towards it. Only avoidance truly wastes time.

Another part of this crazy adventure of life is that timing always turns on a dime. You are always evolving, growing, getting in touch with new information and perspectives. With the right opportunity, you can feel the energy to say yes. Readiness comes of itself. You can’t force it, fake it. And then you finally feel ready to show your gifts to the world - in the synchronicity of that moment. So when that moment comes - take that chance and remember every moment has its own arc and harvest.

Visionaries always continue taking steps forward using their gifts, talents, integrity, their highest ideals plus, their wishes and dreams to make mankind and the planet a better place. When they meet an obstacle they find a way over, under or around it and always continue to pursue their dream - no matter what!

Now here is where HealthyLife.Net Radio gets to help you. We are 100% positive all the time and have a plethora of programs with one goal in mind - to help you have a happy, healthy life. Part of your healthy, happy life is living your dream. So remember when you start wavering from your dream you have a place to go to keep you positively motivated. HealthyLife.net actually exists just to help you - so use us whenever you need us - because HealthyLife.Net Radio is positively there for you 24/7.

Changing the World – One Listener at a Time

Changing the World – One Listener at a Time

by Linda Mackenzie, Founder of HealthyLife.net Radio Network

     I awaken on September 1, 2001. It is a typical day in America. I feel the collective fear of the people rising and vibrating an unseen, low frequency energy. It pervades into the energy around me. It is palatable like a dense fog that I can see, taste and smell. A bombardment of constant negativity seems to emanate from every aspect of life. I see it manifest in dark fog-like patches, slowly moving with purpose towards destruction of family, community, abundance, career, relationships and self. I feel a subtle heaviness extending beyond America surrounding the entire earth itself.

     My Spiritual Warrior side is saddened and outraged. Yet at the same time I feel the underlying hope amongst the despair. I see the bright glimmer of positive energy accumulating and struggling to surface through this dense fog. I trust there is a Divine Plan. I know that positive energy in the form of positive thought can overcome fear and negativity. It can free the earth, all its inhabitants and manifest the world that we are meant to have.

     But how can I reach the masses to pass this knowledge on? How can I help relieve the suffering? How can I create a domino effect of truth, love and collective positive thought to help produce the positive energy that is so desperately needed in these times? I need to do more but I can't do it alone. The new paradigm is connection not isolation.

     That day I made a list (left brain stuff), I meditated (right brain stuff) and I prayed (spirit stuff). Finally I found the clarity I needed. I would become, in essence, Positive Energy In Action and provide an all-positive Internet Radio Station. This station, based in truth and integrity, can help create a positive world community to promote positive thought, positive action and elimination of fear. It can encourage individual diversity, while preserving the concept that we are all one, here for the greater good of all. We can change the world – one listener at a time. Did you know that it takes less than 50 million people to become a critical mass to change the world? So I set out to do my part!

     It took me a year of many negative setbacks, but I stayed positive, persevered and stayed true to my dream. I let go of all my fear, ego, attitudes, expectations, control issues, negative thoughts and feelings. I relied on my own three word mantra-Feel, Know and Trust. I felt it was going to happen. I knew it was going to happen and I trusted it was going to happen. As soon as I did that, the magic began to happen.

     On September 1, 2002, a year to the day of my beginning concept, CHSR HealthyLife.Net-All Positive Talk & Music Radio entered into beta testing. October 1, 2002, I started my live radio show 5 times a week. In November other positive hosts started to appear. Today we are up 24/7 and have many, many hosts-all with TV, film, radio or national lecture experience. Live, On-Air, Call-In Hosts like: Dr. Bernie Siegel, Guy Finley, Sally Kirkland… All connected by one purpose - to help people deal with their lives in a conscious, positive way. Today in 2009, HealthyLife.net Radio reaches over 3,000,000 people in 108 countries and is simulcast 24/7 on over 26 channels including the Internet, WiFi, PDAs, Smartphones and private radio networks to the blind, prison systems, retail stores and more…and we’re growing. We are helping people have happier, healthy lives and contributing to the critical mass that can change this planet to a positive place for all. I am still walking my talk, living my dream to help this planet and am grateful that I am able to do my part.

We are now going into our 12th year and still going strong... Thank you listeners

Internet Radio for Media Buyers

Internet Radio for Media Buyers
In this economy you are being asked to do more with less, so don’t let your clients miss out on one of the fastest growing markets in the media industry – Independent Internet radio. Here are a few reasons why Independent Internet Radio is a great choice:

Missed Market of Engaged Listeners
According to the U.S. Census Bureau and Small Business Administration there are 21 million plus non-employer based businesses in the U.S. of which 52% are home based businesses. In comparison there are only 5milllion plus employer based U.S. businesses. More people are working on computers at home and will listen to internet radio in the background rather than be distracted watching TV or a video. Working alone, the innate need for social contact is met with an internet radio talk show. Listeners tend to feel they are not alone and have a chance to interact via telephone, text, email or social networks during live programs.

Higher Ad Receptivity
Studies have shown that people are hit with 3,000 -5,000 ads per day. This is usually too many for people to process so they tune most of them out – either physically, like a DVR, or mentally. However radio spot ads are less obtrusive because 1) they are expected. The host actually announces they are going to commercial break; 2) radio spots are sound bites, not visuals, which are less distracting; 3) radio is an emotional buy. It leaves the ‘pictures’ up to the mind of the listener who actually matches their ‘pictures’ directly to their needs. This does have more impact - think of the effect of the murder scene in ‘Psycho’ as compared to ‘Texas Chainsaw Massacre’ where people get numb to the violence. 4) radio ads also have a better ‘top of mind’ recall experience; and 5) studies have shown that people will spend more time listening to radio ads, so they are more likely to remember and respond to them.

A Viable Growing Market
Internet Radio continues to expand in growth unlike terrestrial radio which entered the internet market too late. They are still struggling with the Internet and technology while trying to maintain their old paradigm which doesn’t work with today’s audience and technology. Internet radio stations can be, and many are, syndicated and simulcast on many distribution channels, creating a wider network appeal that reaches the listener wherever they are – internet, in-cars, smartphones, WiFi, Ipads, private radio networks, and more. Plus there is added ad shelf life with archives, downloads, podcasts and RSS feeds. In addition - Internet Radio’s Drive Time is longer from 8am – 5pm. Plus what is really great is that usually all this ‘reach’ is included free with your initial buy, making your ROI more economically effective.
 
A Full Digital Presence
Internet Radio can provide more than just radio spots for your clients. Banners, coupons, email blasts, social media mentions are just some of the added possibilities that come included with Internet Talk Radio ad campaigns giving your client a maximum digital presence exposure.

A Niche Market Demographic
Internet radio listeners do tend to have higher, more disposable income levels. Dependent upon the Internet Talk Station’s niche market, demographic information like age groups, gender, marital status and other data will vary but can give you a more specific choice for your client’s product or service – which leads to a better ROI.

Targeted Ad Placement
Imagine reaching local, national or global listeners all in one place. Internet Talk Radio allows media buyers to do this. Plus Internet Talk Radio Stations can target specific local, national and global audiences. Terrestrial radio has a small footprint with almost no local programming.

Better ‘Straight From the Source’ Tracking
No more extrapolated number from 3^rd parties. Internet Radio has more real stats available to them than terrestrial radio. There are no studies comparing terrestrial digital radio and independent internet radio. However to give you an example, when HealthyLife.Net Radio compared ‘apples to apples’ from the latest Triton Digital Media Study, HealthyLife.Net had 1200% more live session listeners than the top terrestrial digital radio stations using the exact same criteria. So don’t discount Independent Internet Radio stations – they are viable players in the media marketplace.

With Independent Internet Radio there is also a way to justify actual real numbers and ROI with minimal effort on your part.  Your clients can actually set up a specific telephone number for ordering and for a banner link, set up a web landing page, with an unpublished link which can be placed on the radio site so clients can track their own statistics – which takes you out of the numbers game all together!

Independent Internet Talk Radio is not a replacement to traditional media but IS a viable addition. It’s a new marketplace that can produce for you now and is destined to only increase in the years to come.
