The world stands at a precipice. Society is deeply polarized, torn between extreme right-wing fascist ideology and a more progressive, inclusive worldview. This divide is not just political. It runs deep, fracturing the very psyche of humanity. The tension between these opposing forces has reached a fever pitch, with individuals, families, and communities becoming casualties in a larger struggle for power and control.
At the center of this fracture are figures like Donald Trump and the MAGA movement, who, along with billionaire oligarchs, have weaponized division for their own self-interest. Their ultimate goal is clear: to gut government and civil society oversight, removing any checks on their ability to operate unfettered. By doing so, they consolidate power and wealth, leaving the broader collective disempowered, disillusioned, and without recourse. Project 2025 is their playbook, and it is playing out right before our very eyes. People are being hurt, and people are going to die. This is a tragedy of the highest order.
However, history has shown that exploitation has a breaking point. The very voters who have been lured into the illusion of nationalism, xenophobia, homophobia, wokeness, fear, and grievance will soon realize the reality that they have been used, discarded, and left worse off than before. The question then arises—where do we go from here?
The Need for Reconciliation
There will come a time when reconciliation must take place. This period of reckoning is not a question of if but when. The collapse of deceptive power structures will force even those who once fervently defended them to question everything they believed. The nation, and indeed the world, will stand at a crossroads. Will humanity succumb to perpetual conflict, or will it choose to heal?
Traditional methods of reconciliation—diplomatic negotiations, political compromises, and economic reforms—are insufficient for the level of healing that must occur. These approaches operate within the same framework that created the problem in the first place. The paradigm shift that is necessary cannot be achieved through mental processes alone. True transformation requires an entirely different approach: one rooted in higher consciousness and the principles of universal empowerment. Energy healing is the pathway to higher consciousness and universal empowerment.
Why Traditional Methods Fail
The issues confronting humanity at the moment (and all be told, forever) are grounded in the primal consciousness of self-interest, greed, competition, exploitation and the battle for resources in an environment of scarcity. All of these attributes have been amplified by the export across the Western world of the American sense of individuality over the collective. In a lot of ways, what is at the heart of Elon Musk’s assault on democracy is an intention to gut the civil society so that he and his fellow oligarchs can do whatever they want to appropriate even more wealth from the broader collective without accountability to societal norms and rules.
It is hard to see that any meaningful progress can be made when self-interest is the dominant paradigm across the broad spectrum of society. In fact, it was self-interest that got Donald elected in the first place. The simple fact of the matter is that 74 million Americans were more concerned about the price of eggs, transgender wokeness, and Mexicans at the border than they were about democracy.
So when the Trump 2.0 administration inevitably collapses, without a fundamental shift to higher consciousness, we will be left with the painful task of rebuilding civil society based on logical incrementalism – small changes and compromises here and there based on horse trading that is centered on appeasing a series of special interest groups. That will be exhausting!
My background is corporate consulting. I know firsthand how difficult it is to manage large scale change programs (albeit in a corporate environment) when self-interest is the primary currency. But in a corporate environment, there is typically only a small number of self-interest goals – making more money as fast as possible being at the top of the list. Image what it would be like trying turn a ship around when you have infinitely more competing self interest goals and priorities to navigate and horse trade around. Thanks, but I will pass.
The Foundations of Universal Empowerment
Our primary vision for humanity is grounded in the principle of universal empowerment. This is a state of existence in which 8 billion people on the planet live their life of passion and purpose; where that purpose is grounded in a noble intent to enhance the wellbeing of the broader collective through their actions – however large or small; and in the process of doing so, experience joy, love, abundance, freedom, health and success.
This vision should be a no-brainer, even for those on the right-hand end of the political spectrum. It is individually empowering and collectively productive, and it results in the pursuit of life and liberty, freedom from tyranny, the pursuit of happiness, the enjoyment of abundance, being largely self-governed, and with broad-based equity under the law. These are all core value of conservatives around the world.
But here is the kicker folks. In your pursuit of individual empowerment, you must also allow for the empowerment of all others. And that is where our vision departs from mainstream conservative thinking. They want liberty, sure. But they only want it for themselves or a small group of their gated community like-minded.
The role of Higher Consciousness
What we are really talking about here is collapsing and dissolving the primacy of self-interest, greed and competition for scarce resources. And that is where higher consciousness comes into the picture. Because about the only way I know of to break down the pervasive sense of self-interest and entitlement is to recognize yourself as an eternal soul and an atom of universal consciousness. Once you do this, your vantage point will instantaneously shift from “me” to “we”, and you can then start thinking about your purpose that is grounded in the noble intent of enhancing the wellbeing of the broader collective.
You don’t have to become a foo-foo spiritualist to make this shift in vantage point. At one level, you just need to be a humanist. But it certainly helps to remind yourself that you are an eternal soul that has had many incarnated lives, where each life is an opportunity to have experiences for the purpose of expanding universal consciousness. In simple terms, this what higher consciousness is all about. Now if along the way you want to practice yoga, chant, or eat mung beans to connect with your higher self, then all power to you. But you don’t need to do these things. You just need to live your life of passion in the pursuit of your purpose which is grounded in a noble intent to enhance the wellbeing of the collective.
In simple terms, higher consciousness is the awareness that you are more the just your physical body, thoughts, and emotions. It’s the understanding that you are an eternal soul—an aspect of an infinite universal energy. From this perspective, life is not confined to one fleeting existence. Instead, it’s an ongoing journey of growth, learning, and contributing to the greater whole.
The realization of yourself as being an eternal soul is profound. We are spiritual beings whose consciousness exists beyond a single incarnated life. Most people alive on Earth right now have had many thousands and even hundreds of thousands of incarnated lives, not all of which have played out on Earth. This realization will be shocking to some who have never contemplated the existence and ramifications of reincarnation.
The base nature of higher consciousness is love. Gratitude and enthusiasm are doorways to higher consciousness, whereas regret and apathy shut down opportunity. And, the journey towards and beyond your connection to universal consciousness never ends.
The Role of Energy Healing
There is already a large and growing base of incarnated souls on the planet that are innately in tune with the nature of higher consciousness. These souls will and must be at the vanguard of the reconciliation process. But unfortunately, there are still way too many people that are still operating from a very low and primal level of consciousness grounded in self-interest. Witness the hate, lies, disinformation and xenophobia displayed by the more vocal end of the MAGA movement.
So the real question is this: How do we move the programming and conditioning of billions of people from self-interest and hate, and infuse the core attributes of higher consciousness into the DNA and the fabric of humanity?
Mainstream religion is not going to do it. Corporate media is not going to do it. Politicians are not going to do it. Bureaucratic institutions are not going to do it. Civil leaders facilitating conversations and town halls about decency, the golden rule, and “mind your own damn business” are important, but not enough.
Then how? About the only way I know of to infuse higher consciousness into the fabric of humanity is through ongoing and focused energy healing work directed at healing the broader collective. This is what world-renowned energy healer Jen Ward and I are doing relentlessly through our group SFT tapping events. Just take a look at our enormous body of work here.
Jen Ward and SFT Tapping
So what the heck is energy healing, and how does SFT tapping work? Well, quite simply, everything in the universe is energy – frequencies of sound and emanations of light woven together in the illusion of form. Everything you experience in your life is an interaction between the energy you put out into the universe and the energy directed towards you from the collective consciousness of the universe.
An energy healer like Jen Ward is someone that can tune into the subtle realms and move stagnant energy with their intentions and energy healing tools. Think of this as being like a lens which bends light rays to converge at a specific point, creating a concentrated beam of high intensity laser light. The thing about Jen is that she is probably the most powerful energy healer on the planet right now. And she has developed an energy healing protocol called SFT tapping that will allow you to focus your intention on removing blockages and manifesting outcomes through your interaction with the energy of the universe. You can download Jen’s SFT tapping protocols for free here.
I have been around my fair share of energy healers, spiritual masters and gurus. And while I am in awe of their abilities to “see” beyond the physical realms, I have never come across anyone as sharply focused and operating with the integrity of pure love as Jen Ward. She really is a largely unrecognized treasure mostly hidden in plain sight.
For sure, Jen is unconventional in her approach and may come across as confronting to those that are not familiar with her work. She makes weird noises and uses harsh language to cut through nefarious energies like a scalpel. And because she is operating so intensely in the subtle realms, she often does not engage in the niceties that some people prefer. But she is a pure badass in energy. Trust me, when the shit hits the fan in your personal life or in the interactions of the broader collective, you want Jen in your corner. So why wouldn’t you want to draw on Jen’s talents and intentions at this critical point in the human experience?
The Path Forward
Reconciliation is inevitable, but the nature of that reconciliation depends on the choices you make today. You can either allow division to persist until the systemic collapse of society forces a painful reckoning, or you can consciously participate in the healing process now. The choice is yours.
Energy healing provides the bridge between where we are and where we must go. It is the only modality capable of dissolving the energetic distortions that fuel hatred, fear, and control. By embracing the principles of universal empowerment, humanity can step into a new reality—one where division is obsolete, and unity is not just an ideal, but a lived experience.
Now is the time to act. The paradigm shift is already underway, and those who choose healing today will be the architects of tomorrow’s world. The only question that remains is: Are you ready to be part of the transformation?
So here is the call to action. Get an energy healing session with Jen Ward here to clear blockages and gain stamina in your own personal life. And then regularly participate in our group SFT tapping events here to become a beacon for others to step into higher consciousness.
With clear eyes and full hearts,
Marvin Schneider and Jen Ward
