What if you could see your own energy field and then use that data as an insight to navigating ways to heal yourself?
00:00:06.169 --> 00:00:15.570
I'm talking about scanning your body's auric field and then seeing if you have specific issues like liver problems, or even visually see stored emotions and trauma.
00:00:15.980 --> 00:00:17.390
I know it's pretty crazy.
00:00:17.390 --> 00:00:19.989
And for some of us, this might not be new, but it's really cool.
00:00:19.989 --> 00:00:21.010
Cause we have some visuals.
00:00:21.010 --> 00:00:29.070
So stay tuned because today we're joined with Charles Monroe jr and intuitive healer and founder of chromo cymatics wellness.
00:00:29.469 --> 00:00:37.225
Charles and I are going to dive into a unique approach to wellness that combines bio well scans, intuitive insights and principles of Chinese medicine.
00:00:41.689 --> 00:00:49.479
You're listening to the New Age Human Podcast, where we explore metaphysical insights and practical tools to help you unlock your potential and thrive in a changing world.
00:00:49.719 --> 00:01:01.840
My name is Jon Astacio, and I've been in the health and wellness industry for over 10 years, helping professionals and change makers improve their mental and physical wellbeing so they can navigate uncertainty and live a purpose driven, fulfilling life.
00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:15.450
So stick around to the very end, because we're going to talk about some powerful stories from Charles including insights from scanning everyday people to intuitives, a Navy seal and individuals on the autism spectrum.
00:01:15.730 --> 00:01:17.709
Now with that said, let's get to the show.
00:01:17.709 --> 00:01:20.689
Charles Monroe Jr.
00:01:20.689 --> 00:01:21.959
Welcome to the show, man.
00:01:21.969 --> 00:01:22.810
How's it going?
00:01:23.019 --> 00:01:23.730
Good, good.
00:01:23.739 --> 00:01:24.879
Thank you for having me.
00:01:25.280 --> 00:01:25.890
Hey, man.
00:01:26.299 --> 00:01:28.000
Um, we're vibing right now.
00:01:28.019 --> 00:01:30.280
You just said you came from a nice hike?
00:01:30.569 --> 00:01:32.030
Yeah, yeah.
00:01:32.659 --> 00:01:37.019
Went on a hike at, uh, right, uh, at Susquehanna State Park, which is near my house.
00:01:37.609 --> 00:01:38.950
Right on Susquehanna River.
00:01:39.140 --> 00:01:40.420
So that's a beautiful place.
00:01:40.950 --> 00:01:49.870
And, um, so yeah, I was going to say, I know you're going on hikes because that's grounding, it's high vibe energies.
00:01:49.930 --> 00:01:51.519
I love to go hiking myself.
00:01:51.519 --> 00:01:56.079
And yeah, we're today, we're totally going to get into frequency and healing.
00:01:56.439 --> 00:02:24.585
And I love how a lot of your focus is around helping people heal themselves as far as like enabling the body to do the work, um, instead of forcefully making it happen, but for everybody listening, I want to go a little bit into your background before we go into like, Um, and I know that your background starts from being a DJ and also studying quantum physics, religion, also producing hip hop.
00:02:24.594 --> 00:02:25.664
You're intuitive, like.
00:02:25.979 --> 00:02:27.490
Where does that story begin?
00:02:27.490 --> 00:02:29.439
If we can give people like a brief background of you.
00:02:29.550 --> 00:02:30.259
Oh my God.
00:02:30.310 --> 00:02:42.719
So, you know, I, you know, I always been a audio file, even when I was a kid, when I was just started learning to DJ, my father used to DJ and he DJ back in the days when you didn't have a mixer.
00:02:42.895 --> 00:02:51.925
You had a receiver with the A and B toggle button on it, and you could press both of them at the same time and hear to two records, or you could just press one and press the other.
00:02:51.925 --> 00:02:56.555
So it's a totally different way of learning how to DJ because you had no queuing or anything like that.
00:02:56.555 --> 00:03:01.340
So you had to learn how to read the grooves on the records to know where to start.
00:03:01.599 --> 00:03:02.969
That's like true skill right there.
00:03:02.969 --> 00:03:07.180
It was a totally different ball game, uh, but he taught me how to do it that way.
00:03:07.370 --> 00:03:09.449
But I was always a stickler for the sound.
00:03:09.479 --> 00:03:10.919
He used to build his own speakers too.
00:03:10.919 --> 00:03:18.460
So I was, you know, when I, when I recorded the cassette tape, it had to be the perfect levels and the noise reduction had to be right in the bias.
00:03:18.460 --> 00:03:20.949
It, everything, I was always a stickler for sound.
00:03:20.949 --> 00:03:29.770
I couldn't even figure out why now it all makes sense, but you know, I went from to, to DJing, you know, weddings and things like that.
00:03:30.569 --> 00:03:32.020
DJ'd all throughout college.
00:03:32.240 --> 00:03:33.909
I went to American University, obviously.
00:03:34.139 --> 00:03:36.009
My major was audio engineering there.
00:03:36.580 --> 00:03:38.659
Um, so, I was actually a double major.
00:03:38.659 --> 00:03:40.150
It was audio engineering and electrical engineering.
00:03:40.199 --> 00:03:42.770
They had what they called a 3 2 program back in those days.
00:03:42.770 --> 00:03:46.500
I don't know if they still have it, but you basically, in five years, you come out with two bachelor's degrees.
00:03:46.509 --> 00:03:49.870
So, you, you spend three years at one school, which is American University.
00:03:49.960 --> 00:03:52.449
Then you transfer over to an engineering school.
00:03:52.469 --> 00:03:53.689
For me, it was College Park.
00:03:54.050 --> 00:03:57.219
So, we had the choice to go to College Park or Washington University down in St.
00:03:57.219 --> 00:03:57.550
Louis.
00:03:57.550 --> 00:03:57.615
That's it.
00:03:58.155 --> 00:04:01.044
Um, so when I was at AU, I had studio access.
00:04:01.044 --> 00:04:04.294
So I'm DJing parties, you know, all the black student union parties.
00:04:04.294 --> 00:04:06.784
I used to go to Howard, DJ Howard's parties and stuff.
00:04:07.375 --> 00:04:14.715
Um, but, uh, I got into the producing of the hip hop, like making the music.
00:04:15.164 --> 00:04:25.625
And at the same time, I'm, I'm studying, um, what's happening with audio at that time, when I was in college, the MP3 was just being invented, right?
00:04:25.634 --> 00:04:29.334
So we were studying that and how that was coming about.
00:04:29.675 --> 00:04:33.935
You know, so the, the physics and the math was all tying in with the DJ.
00:04:33.935 --> 00:04:43.314
Everything was kind of happening at the same time, you know, back in those days, you know, a 40 megabyte hard drive megabyte that's 40 floppy disks.
00:04:44.654 --> 00:04:47.504
A 40 megabyte hard drive was like a thousand dollars.
00:04:48.300 --> 00:04:52.009
So you could only fit one uncompressed song on a hard drive.
00:04:52.310 --> 00:04:59.209
So we had to, in the studio, we had to, we had to schedule our time and, and after we put it on a, on a hard drive, you had to delete it.
00:04:59.209 --> 00:05:01.339
You had to, you know, record it to death or something like that.
00:05:02.089 --> 00:05:04.389
Um, so, heavy into the audio stuff.
00:05:04.459 --> 00:05:11.819
Um, when, when I, uh, graduated from school, I, I actually, um, I started an internet consulting company.
00:05:12.964 --> 00:05:14.394
That I did for like nine years.
00:05:14.875 --> 00:05:21.964
So I did a lot of the first websites back in the mid nineties, um, on March of dimes, uh, national education association.
00:05:21.964 --> 00:05:25.415
I had a lot of nonprofit clients that I had, and I was a young kid.
00:05:25.415 --> 00:05:28.865
I was 24 years old, um, making more money than I could spend.
00:05:29.764 --> 00:05:34.915
And, and I had a friend who, um, he used to DJ with me at American university.
00:05:35.404 --> 00:05:36.644
This is a 1999.
00:05:36.665 --> 00:05:39.665
He kept asking me, you know, to start an online radio station.
00:05:39.665 --> 00:05:40.675
This is a 1999.
00:05:41.754 --> 00:05:43.004
There was no Pandora.
00:05:43.014 --> 00:05:45.305
None of these things that we have, but they didn't exist.
00:05:45.514 --> 00:05:46.504
They did not exist.
00:05:47.144 --> 00:06:04.665
Um, they had a couple of stations in Europe and he kept pushing me and I was comfortable doing my, my internet consulting company, you know, um, but I saw it as an opportunity to kind of marry the audio and the internet skills together to create this online radio station.
00:06:04.665 --> 00:06:08.324
Um, and we started that in 2003.
00:06:09.454 --> 00:06:10.375
And it's still going.
00:06:10.375 --> 00:06:12.685
It's 21 years, like 40 DJs on there.
00:06:13.884 --> 00:06:21.064
But once I started that, I started DJing bigger venues, festivals, thousands of people, you know, overseas.
00:06:21.064 --> 00:06:23.964
We do parties in London, Croatia, all over the place.
00:06:24.819 --> 00:06:33.259
And so you go from, you know, having a party and then having thousands of people and it's like it's the same connection.
00:06:33.339 --> 00:06:36.680
All of us DJs know it, you know, especially the club DJs.
00:06:37.350 --> 00:06:42.420
You know, you have this, it's this symbiotic relationship with the audience and the DJ.
00:06:43.149 --> 00:06:45.709
You have to connect with them in order to know what to play.
00:06:46.680 --> 00:06:52.819
And sometimes what we would do is we had to go to, if we knew we're going to DJ a club where we never DJ before, we would go there.
00:06:53.250 --> 00:06:54.459
And scout the place.
00:06:54.459 --> 00:07:01.300
Just get a feel for the vibe there for the people's vibe, because the vibes are different in different cities.
00:07:01.620 --> 00:07:02.050
Yeah.
00:07:02.430 --> 00:07:04.860
So you had to go there and feel the vibe.
00:07:05.160 --> 00:07:07.139
Cause there's so much music you can play.
00:07:07.189 --> 00:07:09.000
And we're just talking about one genre.
00:07:09.360 --> 00:07:10.509
This is just house music.
00:07:11.040 --> 00:07:15.759
It's only house music is what we play, but you can go all over the place, even with that.
00:07:16.199 --> 00:07:18.449
Um, so we would go feel it out.
00:07:18.810 --> 00:07:22.100
And then we knew how we would play the next day if we were going to go there and play the next day.
00:07:22.100 --> 00:07:25.899
But what I'm getting at is it's a, it's a symbiotic relationship.
00:07:25.899 --> 00:07:31.300
You're feeling them, um, and you're getting to know what they're going to want to hear next.
00:07:31.899 --> 00:07:33.480
And, um, you connect with them.
00:07:33.560 --> 00:07:35.430
I actually went to a shaman one time.
00:07:36.295 --> 00:07:42.384
I'm very intuitive and, and a lot of us DJs are, we pick up the crowd, but we also take that energy home.
00:07:43.334 --> 00:07:48.355
And I remember the shaman told me, she said, when you come home from the club, you have to take a shower.
00:07:48.375 --> 00:07:50.444
She said, it's not about soap and water.
00:07:50.764 --> 00:07:54.274
It's about telling the water to clear that energy off of you.
00:07:55.574 --> 00:07:57.475
I heard, uh, add in salt.
00:07:58.235 --> 00:07:59.725
Helps with that cleanse, right?
00:08:00.144 --> 00:08:00.935
Salt can do too.
00:08:00.985 --> 00:08:03.115
Like, well, magnesium if you do a salt bath.
00:08:03.935 --> 00:08:10.894
But she, yeah, she, but she was just saying tell the water, because it's, it's all coming from the concept that, that water is programmable.
00:08:11.654 --> 00:08:13.884
And we're seeing a lot more research about that right now.
00:08:13.975 --> 00:08:14.925
A lot more.
00:08:15.435 --> 00:08:18.425
Um, so yeah, she told me to do that and that, and that's what I did.
00:08:18.745 --> 00:08:20.535
Just so I didn't keep that energy.
00:08:22.305 --> 00:08:23.144
That's really cool.
00:08:23.254 --> 00:08:31.225
How there's a protocol for, uh, for, for bringing that energy home from, uh, being a DJ.
00:08:31.355 --> 00:08:34.434
And I'm used to hearing about.
00:08:34.875 --> 00:08:40.995
People managing their energy and absorbing other people in other professions that are health related.
00:08:41.294 --> 00:08:43.745
But as a DJ, it totally crossed my mind.
00:08:43.745 --> 00:08:45.274
And yeah, that's, that's interesting.
00:08:46.115 --> 00:08:49.325
That concept, it actually plays a role in what I offer actually.
00:08:49.914 --> 00:08:52.325
So I have, I have psychotherapists that come to me.
00:08:52.325 --> 00:08:57.934
I have even hairdressers suffer from the same thing because they're in people's other people's energy all the time.
00:08:58.914 --> 00:09:01.335
And they, they come to me to clear that energy.
00:09:01.375 --> 00:09:06.205
They don't, they don't want to go to yet another person cause now they're entangled in that person's in their filters.
00:09:06.534 --> 00:09:16.875
So I have a special package called heal the healer that they buy and they, they get to clean in a kind of a sanitary place where the egg is.
00:09:16.894 --> 00:09:18.095
It's not another person.
00:09:18.534 --> 00:09:33.445
It's a sterile place where they can actually clear the energy because even I have psychotherapists that come when I scan them with the bio, well, I don't want to jump ahead too much, but when I scan them with the bio well, I can see the energy signature of their clients and they even know this.
00:09:34.034 --> 00:09:34.725
Whoa.
00:09:34.945 --> 00:09:35.345
Yeah.
00:09:36.144 --> 00:09:36.325
Yeah.
00:09:36.345 --> 00:09:39.784
So DJing, it sounds like.
00:09:41.394 --> 00:09:55.485
You already were marrying the DJing business, getting into radio, and then you already had, you were, you were already working with a shaman, and so you already had these practices of managing your energy.
00:09:55.725 --> 00:10:08.955
How did that turn into what you're doing now, where you're integrating quantum physics, um, with, as far as the healing process, like, um, where does the DJ become the healer and the technology?
00:10:08.955 --> 00:10:10.075
I want to get into the tech now.
00:10:11.414 --> 00:10:17.934
So, um, what I started doing is watching YouTube videos, like just people doing crystal balls and things like that.
00:10:18.524 --> 00:10:21.424
Um, and I would get a certain feeling from that.
00:10:22.024 --> 00:10:25.565
In fact, it's the same feeling when I was in school, I was always in the band.
00:10:25.644 --> 00:10:26.625
I was in the orchestra.
00:10:26.634 --> 00:10:28.115
I was in the symphonic orchestra.
00:10:28.115 --> 00:10:29.764
I was in the jazz band, the marching band.
00:10:30.245 --> 00:10:35.294
It's that feeling that I got when I was in the middle of a orchestra and we were playing a piece.
00:10:35.294 --> 00:10:37.085
piece and that unison that you have.
00:10:37.085 --> 00:10:43.365
If you've ever played in an orchestra or in a band like that, when you, when you're all in the pocket together, it's a, it's a feeling.
00:10:44.075 --> 00:10:46.804
And I would get that when I would hear these singing bowls.
00:10:47.945 --> 00:10:51.894
Then there were other videos I used to watch on YouTube that was just colors.
00:10:51.914 --> 00:10:58.345
I mean, even me, my younger son, he still like watching the colors, which is all the colors of the shock was just flashing on the screen.
00:10:58.345 --> 00:11:00.065
Very simple color therapy.
00:11:00.945 --> 00:11:09.634
Um, so I started dabbling in the sound with the singing bowls in terms of focusing on shock was and doing the same thing with light.
00:11:10.654 --> 00:11:12.134
So that's kind of where that came.
00:11:12.144 --> 00:11:13.625
And I started to dabble in that.
00:11:14.174 --> 00:11:16.605
Um, you know, I had a friend.
00:11:16.995 --> 00:11:20.225
It was a time where I was kind of in between jobs.
00:11:20.445 --> 00:11:21.424
This is an interesting story.
00:11:21.955 --> 00:11:23.764
This is what made me believe in color therapy.
00:11:24.615 --> 00:11:27.674
Um, I had a friend, he told me, work with red.
00:11:28.404 --> 00:11:31.360
He said, you need a new job, work with red.
00:11:31.710 --> 00:11:32.289
That's money.
00:11:32.509 --> 00:11:34.049
So you can, you can do whatever you want.
00:11:34.049 --> 00:11:37.360
You can take a red crayon and just draw clockwise circles if you want.
00:11:37.379 --> 00:11:39.059
Your subconscious mind will understand.
00:11:40.220 --> 00:11:43.889
He said, but the best ritual is, is to do one that you make up.
00:11:44.769 --> 00:11:46.320
So this is about 2011.
00:11:47.669 --> 00:11:49.500
The Wii just came out, right?
00:11:50.090 --> 00:11:51.190
I'm a big tennis fan.
00:11:51.899 --> 00:11:55.389
So there's a game on the Wii, um, called Grand Slam Tennis.
00:11:55.580 --> 00:11:57.360
And it's not the little Wii characters.
00:11:57.360 --> 00:11:58.590
You're playing Roger Federer.
00:11:58.590 --> 00:11:59.690
You're playing Serena.
00:11:59.700 --> 00:12:00.590
It's, it's serious.
00:12:01.225 --> 00:12:02.424
You playing people all over the world.
00:12:02.634 --> 00:12:06.485
So I said, I'm going to create this character and I'm going to put them in all red.
00:12:07.774 --> 00:12:09.684
And I'm just going to kick butt on this game.
00:12:09.695 --> 00:12:12.565
This is going to be my ritual, my money ritual, right?
00:12:13.034 --> 00:12:13.735
And that's what I did.
00:12:13.735 --> 00:12:17.585
He had big Afro, had all red on and I was, I was beating people all over the world.
00:12:18.725 --> 00:12:25.465
At that time, I think I was working, uh, for T Roy Price, an investment place, but they, they weren't paying well.
00:12:26.284 --> 00:12:28.335
And I stopped playing this game.
00:12:28.335 --> 00:12:29.884
And then all of a sudden I get a job.
00:12:29.914 --> 00:12:31.835
I get a six figure job offer from IBM.
00:12:34.210 --> 00:12:37.350
And before that time, I couldn't tell you how to get a job with IBM.
00:12:37.350 --> 00:12:40.000
Because IBM is this big, mysterious company.
00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:42.750
Like, you just don't walk down the street and see IBM buildings, places.
00:12:42.759 --> 00:12:44.210
You, you gotta find an IBM building.
00:12:45.039 --> 00:12:47.120
So, they offered me a six figure job.
00:12:47.710 --> 00:12:53.389
And as I'm playing the game, I realize the stadiums have logos.
00:12:53.639 --> 00:12:54.779
They're, they're real stadiums.
00:12:54.789 --> 00:12:58.710
So it's Roland Garros, you know, um, Flushing Meadows, US Open.
00:12:58.710 --> 00:13:00.850
IBM is everywhere.
00:13:00.850 --> 00:13:00.919
It's right there.
00:13:01.480 --> 00:13:04.879
It's plastered, it's on the net, it's on the shot clock, it's everywhere.
00:13:06.129 --> 00:13:20.809
And that made me realize that my subconscious mind was seeing that logo, while I'm playing that game with that intention, with that color on, and I get a six figure job with the logo that I'm staring at because I was playing that game for hours at a time.
00:13:22.750 --> 00:13:24.269
That really said something to me.
00:13:24.590 --> 00:13:26.340
I'm like, it's something it's something to this.
00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:26.919
Yeah.
00:13:27.049 --> 00:13:31.730
So play we As a red character and get six figures
00:13:36.519 --> 00:13:42.679
That's pretty and pay attention to the logos, yeah Rolex logos the idea of logos you name it.
00:13:42.720 --> 00:13:50.440
Uh, but yeah, I I can't make that up I can't make that up man That I had these key moments.
00:13:50.440 --> 00:13:54.789
That was one key moment And I dived a little more into color therapy.
00:13:55.190 --> 00:14:04.080
Um, but what really, I would say was the, the, the straw that broke the camel's back as I was in New York with my son, I was in Manhattan.
00:14:04.894 --> 00:14:06.105
My son's a coin collector.
00:14:06.985 --> 00:14:09.215
He, I think he was like 15 and 16 at the time.
00:14:09.215 --> 00:14:13.044
So when his birthday came, I would take him wherever he wanted to go to collect coins.
00:14:13.044 --> 00:14:14.475
And he, he's serious into coins.
00:14:14.475 --> 00:14:18.914
He wanted to go to New York and buy some Confederate money in Manhattan.
00:14:19.375 --> 00:14:23.695
So we'll go in there and I look to my left, there's a bookshelf.
00:14:24.605 --> 00:14:27.085
And the guy who owns it, him and my son are in heaven.
00:14:27.125 --> 00:14:29.565
He's just surprised my son knows all this stuff at his age.
00:14:29.595 --> 00:14:31.184
They're, they're in love over there.
00:14:31.184 --> 00:14:37.445
So I'm looking and I asked the guy, I'm like, um, What are you doing with these color therapy books?
00:14:37.445 --> 00:14:39.945
He had shelves of color therapy books.
00:14:40.804 --> 00:14:43.024
And an antique pledge that sold coins.
00:14:43.590 --> 00:14:44.029
That's weird.
00:14:44.360 --> 00:14:47.519
So, he, look, he pointed to the back, he said, I have tons of them back there.
00:14:47.840 --> 00:14:48.879
I said, where'd you get these?
00:14:49.269 --> 00:14:57.470
He said, the guy, he was the first guy to graduate from NYU in 1969 with a PhD in color therapy.
00:14:58.370 --> 00:14:58.549
Hmm.
00:14:58.590 --> 00:15:01.570
Just passed away, and he donated his whole library to him.
00:15:03.330 --> 00:15:04.529
And I'm looking at these books.
00:15:04.529 --> 00:15:12.440
These are books from like the fifties that the admin used in the fifties when they were trying to figure out advertising how to get people to buy things using certain colors and commercials.
00:15:12.440 --> 00:15:14.259
And I know these are these books.
00:15:14.259 --> 00:15:16.320
He's like 300 books.
00:15:16.320 --> 00:15:18.019
He graduated with his PhD in 1969.
00:15:18.370 --> 00:15:19.639
So these books from the fifties.
00:15:21.080 --> 00:15:22.210
And he said, grab what you want.
00:15:23.019 --> 00:15:29.000
And I grabbed a stack of books and he just took a pencil and just wrote down no more than six dollars for any of those books.
00:15:29.090 --> 00:15:29.870
Three, four, six.
00:15:30.129 --> 00:15:31.480
He just wanted to get back to my son.
00:15:32.549 --> 00:15:33.750
He just wanted to get back to him.
00:15:34.289 --> 00:15:38.129
So when that happened, I'm like, okay, what are the odds of this happening?
00:15:38.600 --> 00:15:38.980
Right.
00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:48.475
You know, I felt like if I didn't pay attention to this, I was going to walk outside and get hit by a truck or something like this, I had to pay attention to this.
00:15:48.475 --> 00:15:48.929
If you didn't make
00:15:48.929 --> 00:15:50.700
that decision, they're like, you're done.
00:15:50.850 --> 00:15:52.000
We don't need you anymore.
