  • Matthew Ryan: The Earth as a Living Library of Consciousness
    Jul 4 2025

    In this episode of the Healers of the World podcast, host Robyn On Earth engages in a profound conversation with Matthew Ryan, a visionary guide and healer. They explore the magic of healing, Matthew's personal journey, and the transformative power of plant medicine. Matthew shares his experiences with energy healing, his close encounter with a UFO, and the significance of the upcoming 2025 shift in consciousness. The discussion delves into the concept of choice points, the role of Earth as a living library, and the importance of individual responsibility in the collective awakening process.


    About Your Host Matthew Ryan:

    Matthew Ryan is a visionary guide and healer living in Taos, New Mexico, USA. His journey into realms of energy and unseen influence has been a life-long process, beginning at a young age with many mystical experiences like out of body experiences, communication with animals and dreams of the future. Matthew's journey took a turn towards a spiritual path at 19 years old. He had a series of profound life experiences, which recalibrated his path and pointed him towards Awakening. Much of Matthew's adult life has involved exploration into his own healing, while simultaneously developing a means to support other people. The past 2 decades have centered around the development of his unique energy healing modality, Gamma Wave Healing, as well as intense journey work with our plant medicine allies. The culmination of this journey came into being in 2018 when he met Rhoda and Zelkhia, his dear Soul Sisters in South Africa. Since 2018, Matthew has hosted retreats in South Africa, introducing friends and clients from around the world to the life changing protocol developed by Rhoda and Zelkhia. Matthew is humbled to be able to share with humanity this protocol, which is the most effective and comprehensive Cleanse and Activation protocol on Earth.

  • Paul Martin-Strode: Elemental healing and the intricate relationships between humans and nature.
    Apr 10 2025

    In this enlightening conversation, Robyn and Paul delve into the realms of elemental healing, shamanic practices, and the intricate relationships between humans and nature. Paul shares his personal journey of awakening to his intuitive abilities and the importance of reconnecting with the natural world. They explore themes of trust, the significance of ancestral connections, and the balance between masculine and feminine energies. The discussion emphasizes the need for humility, accountability, and the role of nature in healing, ultimately calling for a collective return to the web of life that binds us all.


    About Our Guest Paul

    Over the past 25 years, Paul has developed a deeply intuitive connection with Nature through personal endeavours and healing work. His belief is that, since we originate from Nature and are a part of it, it makes sense to rekindle our connection to Nature, as surely It is at the heart of our healing. Paul’s approach to healing is collaborative, and Nature spirit is always present. He uses Craniosacral Therapy (various trainings since 1997), his own British Wild Flower Essences established in 1999, and astral structures for remote shamanic healing. Since 2005, he’s specialised in working with newborn babies, children, and animals, particularly horses. He has also undertaken a Dolphin Assisted Bio Aquatic CST course for paediatrics with disabilities in Turkey 2010.

    In addition to his healing work, he offers workshops and courses to enable clients to operate their own Spiral Bridge - the astral structure he developed co-creatively with Nature, as a tool to create a virtual safe space to communicate with Nature and receive healing from It.

    With over 27 years of clinical experience, Paul’s intention is to bring warmth and enthusiasm to his healing work, and enjoys helping others find their path to wellness.
