BY SUSAN DZIEDZIC ReminderNews
Anew local radio program called “What’s The Point” – hosted by Eaglemoon Raes every Monday morning from 5 to 7 a.m. on WHUS 91.7 FM – has a unique format that is a departure from typical early-morning talk or news programming. The two hours are filled with positive, uplifting and life-affirming discussions, meditations and music.

WHUS 91.7 FM is broadcast from the campus of the University of Connecticut and is known for offering its listeners an array of diverse programming.
“What’s the Point?” host Eaglemoon Raes is no stranger to the airwaves, having been a frequent guest on various WHUS programs, including “Radio Naturopath” with Dr. Fran Storch. Her background is in a variety of alternative healing arts, and she has been a practicing hypnotherapist, a Reiki practitioner and teacher for many years, as well as a licensed Avatar Master.
For years, friends and clients have been encouraging Raes to use her soothing voice and healing techniques to reach a larger audience by hosting a radio program. She finally took their suggestions and trained at WHUS’s studios, all the while drawing from her vast experience to come up with a working concept for her program.
“My intent is to offer my listeners programming that will be positive and uplifting – to offer people the opportunity to bring about positive and personal development in a non-intrusive and noninvasive way,” Raes said. “The world is chaotic, and my goal is to help people take back their power with self-change by showing them how to empower themselves and lead a joyful, peaceful life.”
Raes brings to the airwaves much of the same advice and techniques she uses in her private practice. At 6 a.m. each Monday, she broadcasts an affirming meditation for the audience. The meditations that she presents are time-tested mind “journeys” that she uses with her private clients.
“For some listeners, the thought of meditation and hypnosis is a foreign subject,” she said. “They may be a little wary of this sort of thing, and I want to assure the audience that what I am broadcasting is healthy and uplifting. The mental state that is reached in meditation and hypnosis is a normal, natural state that we enter into all of the time, whether we realize it or not. For instance, when you are surfing the Web or watching a movie, you are in a state of hypnosis. All hypnosis is actually self-induced ; no one is controlling you. It’s not like the theatrical hypnosis that you see in movies. You are totally aware of everything that is going on around you. This state of mind can help you relax and think more deeply. It can help you make positive changes in your life.”
“The title of the show, ‘What’s The Point?’, came to me while I was on vacation on the Outer Banks of North Carolina ,” said Raes. “My family and some friends were there together, but in separate cars, so we agreed to meet up during the day at a land’s end beach, which we all referred to as the point. When I arrived at the point with my car full of children and didn’t see our friends, I phoned them and found out they were at a different beach that they thought was ‘the point.’ We finally got together, and after some heated discussions about which geographical area actually was ‘the point,’ we had a toast and a very mind-expanding conversation about how our differences in perspectives are the only reasons we fight. Once we learn to respect and tolerate each other’s perspective differences will we learn to live in harmony.”
“What’s the Point?” can be heard at 91.7 FM or on the Web cast at www. WHUS.org. For more information, visit Raes’ Web site at www.eaglemoonraes. com.

Some rave reviews...

There is something unique about the Self Love CD that stands out. The journey through space from ground zero and back again, the phase lock with the number sequence for the merkaba vehicle (I love that part), it is all so well thought out, goes beyond self love to help one connect to the universe and other souls struggling to reach the final union.

I have some excellent guided meditation CDs by some amazing healers similar to yourself (e.g. Carrie Hart) but there will always be a place
for this one. Self love is really where the healing needs to begin, I think, and this recording of yours helps with that in a unique way.

There is nothing as relaxing, freeing, healing, eye opening, learning and down right wonderful as this travel. I can go on!....
It has brought so very much to my life that it's hard to explain in this note all of it. One example is this pass week end at a family reunion my bother said, isn't sad how we ,my sister, my self and my bother are very talented but we just don't really believe we are. I spoke up and said " speak for yourself because I know I am very talented and am very blessed to be!" I felt such pride that after 56 years those words came so easily to me where they never had before.
The gifts I have received from Eaglemoons guidance in these journeys are shown to me day after day. Sometimes in small ways sometimes in large. I count my blessing daily for such a gift and Eaglemoon.

Eaglemoon's teaching holds a very special place in my heart. You are about to embark on an incredible journey, buckle your seat belt!

Eaglemoon is a joy to work with. Participating in her journeys has been a profound inner experience for me. It was full of insight and wisdom. I especially enjoyed working with her on a one to one basis. Her physic awareness of being with me in the moment and offering the exact words and wisdom I needed to hear was truly unbelievable. I highly recommend her classes and teachings. She is a blessing!
