Helmut (aka The Mindful Gardener) & Sam Miller going their separate ways...

    Just thought I'd post up that Helmut (aka The Mindful Gardener) and Sam Miller are going their separate ways. Perhaps good news for some people like me who used to enjoy watching Helmut's free YouTube videos before Sam joined him on his channel (as after Sam joined him he made far fewer of them).

    I saw that in his FB group. I think it's great. I know a lot of people like her but she comes off as very artificial and forced to me. I don't think she was doing him any favors.

    I think it's too much scripted and she's not good at reading it on camera. Helmut is a free flow guy, quite the opposite.
    Hope she does good, there's a lot of power in the acceptance/allowing approach. She just needs to work on the deliverance.

    I agree on this. I also feel like she makes things more complicated than they need to be.

    I like Sam! But yeah her videos go on a bit long and circularly. But she seems sweet and I loved that she was pretty vocal about being vegan (I remember her having a playlist on her channel). I try not to engage in too much TMS video content at this stage in my journey but I wish her and Helmut well, they both seem like well intentioned individuals which this world desperately needs!

    I like them both, but for different reasons. It seems right that they should go their separate ways. It was too much to put them together. And yes, hopefully now Helmut will put out more videos. Some of Sam’s meditation videos are really good.

    I enjoyed them both but also got confused at times due to what I felt like was mixed messaging. I found it best to just get the right healing method down and limit the videos quite a bit.

    For me this screams Sam realising she doesnt need helmut as her coaching sessions were always full and she is probably wanting to make money on her own, however as ive already mentioned i felt Sams videos were far too complicated for what is needed to be done and its like she has written the whole thing out and just reads it out, plus her constant put downs of every other coach and dismissing all other techniques as if hers was the only one that worked was annoying to listen to.

    I didnt mind Helmut, he comes out with some random babble from time to time but he at least looked like he wasnt reading a script and came across like a real person.

    I agree about this. I was shocked by what she said about Joe Dispenza's business practices/motives. I reckon she needs to watch what she says because (perhaps if her business gets big enough) people like him and/or even those not as successful as him, might decide that they think her words defamatory and sue.

    I don't care for Dr. Dispenza and his methods but agree. Helmut was pretty insulting of Dan Buglio when I talked with him briefly in a FB thread, I guess they had a bad interaction. It just seems so weird to me to push your system by insulting others.

    I guess "no good deed goes unpunished" as Judge Judy so often says (when I was bedridden I watched a lot of daytime TV!). I say this because it was Dan who helped to get his 'career' as a coach going when he interviewed Helmut in one of his success stories videos.

    I never looked into Dispenza apart from listening to one of his meditations on YouTube which personally I didn't enjoy.

    Dispenza is a little scary to me. I've read accounts where he pushed people into Kundalini meditation too quickly and it caused some serious issues, even sent some people to the hospital from the physical reactions they had. I read You Are the Placebo just to get an idea of his work because a virtual friend swears by him and does national talks about her experience with him, she says his work saved her life, but he just didn't click with me.
