#27 - Angie Chek
This video features an in-depth conversation with Angie Chek, a multifaceted practitioner encompassing roles as a shaman, Chek practitioner, nutritionist, and personal trainer. The discussion covers her unique journey into these diverse fields, particularly Shamanism, and delves into concepts like soul loss, karma, and the groundbreaking science of BioGeometry, emphasizing a holistic approach to healing and self-empowerment.
1. Angie's Journey into Holistic Healing and Shamanism
The episode kicks off with the host, Dr. Alexis, introducing her iconic guest, Angie Chek, acknowledging the profound impact Angie and her husband Paul have had on her life. Angie is celebrated for her vast expertise as a nutritionist, personal trainer, Chek practitioner, holistic lifestyle coach, Chek faculty member, and shaman, having completed a three-year training through the Foundation for Shamanic Studies. Angie expresses her gratitude for being on the show, and the conversation immediately dives into her fascinating career path.
Angie reveals that her journey into these unique fields began in childhood with strong intuitive abilities, often knowing things without understanding how. She recounts a pivotal story from when she was five years old, accurately predicting her grandmother's friend's death. This experience, unfortunately, led to her grandmother blaming her, causing Angie to suppress these "gifts" for years.
"I remember I was coloring at the dining room table and she comes out and she's like oh I'm so worried about my friend and this and that and I pause and I just get this I I get this intuitive hit like her her friend's going to be passing on I said well don't worry Grandma she'll be dying soon and I kept on drawing and she comes out to me she's like how dare you say that and I looked at her and I'm like what did I say something wrong you know and she gets she storms out of the room and I was like huh and I just kept on drawing well the following week goes by and her friend does pass away and my grandmother came up to me and she's like you did this you did this you her that and so there was part of me that went did I do this like you know that never occurred to me that by saying something that I wasn't wishing it on her I was just seeing it you know and so I felt horrible about it but she blamed me in a way so I pushed away these kind of gifts and thought if I have visions like that don't say anything about it because people will think it's me who's doing it."
Growing up in a strict Catholic environment further reinforced the suppression of her intuitive talents, as such topics were often dismissed. However, in her teen years, a rebellious phase led her to explore Ouija boards and tarot cards, sparking her interest in the esoteric. College further broadened her horizons into herbal medicines and natural healing.
A key turning point in her adult life was making the conscious decision to pursue specialized courses, such as the Chek courses and Shamanism, independently. She learned a valuable lesson about not waiting for others:
"I think it's good message for your audience is when you have an intuitive hit to take class don't wait for other people to join you because I remember even when the Chek courses were I wanted to take the Chek courses and I was like I'm going to take these courses and my friends are like oh yeah that'd be so much fun and they're like oh no no I don't have the money or I don't have that time this week or I don't this and that and there was so many excuses and I was delaying the opportunity to learn earlier because I was waiting for a friend... finally one day I just kind of like screw it I'm going to do it myself and I started taking courses and empowering myself and I'm like this is the way to do it is just just be assertive."
Angie is currently writing an inspirational memoir about her life, emphasizing how every experience, even the challenging ones, contributes to becoming the person one is meant to be. She views struggles as lessons that propel individuals to the next level, leading to an open and fulfilling life. Dr. Alexis resonates with this perspective, citing Carl Jung's idea of bringing conscious awareness to unconscious patterns to create an autonomous existence, contrasting it with a "victim mentality" prevalent in modern medical approaches.
2. Unpacking Shamanism and Soul Loss
Dr. Alexis then asks Angie to define Shamanism and explain her connection to it. Angie explains that Shamanism, often found in cultures "closer to nature," involves connecting to the spirit of the land, animals, and plants. A shaman is someone with a strong ability to receive messages from these elements. They often live somewhat isolated and are sought out when individuals face challenges. The shaman's role is to identify imbalances within a person to facilitate healing.
A significant aspect of Angie's shamanic practice is soul retrieval. She describes how traumatic life experiences can cause "soul loss," where parts of one's life force or vitality become fragmented from the body.
"You think about your soul and your body there they should be like like a hand in a glove a perfect fit but when we have soul now there's like holes in your in your pockets in your body and that leaves room for other things like disease and illness or entities... a shaman can help figure out where those holes are and help you bring those parts back that have been missing and when you bring those parts back now you're fully in the present in the now."
Soul loss often manifests as a mind constantly revisiting past events, as a part of the person is still "living in that moment again and again." The shaman helps retrieve these fragments, bringing the individual fully into the present.
Angie explains that soul loss can occur during any experience where one wished to die, felt they didn't belong, or faced a life-threatening situation (e.g., car accidents, near-drowning, severe falls). In these moments, the soul might "eject" from the body, believing it's about to die, and a part of it remains detached even if the body survives.
Dr. Alexis inquires if physical injuries or self-neglect can also cause soul loss. Angie emphatically confirms, highlighting how negative self-talk and dislike of specific body parts (e.g., "I hate my tummy") can literally pull the soul from those areas, leading to reduced vitality and worsening conditions.
"When we don't love ourselves so if you're going oh I hate my tummy oh I don't like my butt or I don't like my thighs you're pulling out your soul from those parts of your body and so those parts don't get better they get worse because there's no vitality in them."
She shares a relatable anecdote about her own journey with sunbathing her abdomen after significant weight loss, transforming her relationship with that part of her body and even improving its appearance. This demonstrates the powerful connection between self-love, soul presence, and physical well-being. Angie also emphasizes the body's intelligence in communicating its needs, contrasting it with punitive or neglectful self-treatment.
Paul Chek's story of a client with frail legs who, after a soul retrieval, saw her legs fill out almost immediately, further illustrates this point. Angie explains that when the soul is fully anchored, the body doesn't feel threatened and doesn't need to hold onto excess weight to ground itself. Conversely, being ungrounded from nature and overly cerebral can also contribute to a lack of embodiment from a soul perspective.
Regarding the location of lost soul fragments, Angie clarifies that these parts remain "stuck" in the past, constantly reliving the traumatic event, even though all time is happening simultaneously. A shaman's work is to retrieve these parts, effectively "canceling out" the looping past event and integrating the soul back into the present. She likens it to closing too many open windows on a computer to streamline its operation.
Angie also connects this to paranormal activity, explaining that spirits, often from unexpected or traumatic deaths, can get stuck in the "middle world" – the realm of the living. She shares a powerful story from her book about her great-grandmother, who died during the Revolutionary War and remained stuck on her ranch, waiting for her family, unaware she was deceased. Angie, through her shamanic training, performed psychopomp work (a practice once common in the Catholic Church) to help release her great-grandmother from this loop. Major traumatic events, like 9/11, can also leave many souls stuck.
Angie believes that while soul loss has always existed, today's highly intellectual and disconnected culture might exacerbate it. She also observes that "light beings" (individuals with significant positive energy) often face more traumatic events early in life, as "dark forces" attempt to disrupt their potential. However, she also notes that recent events, like the 2020 pandemic, served as a catalyst, exposing negative forces and simultaneously awakening many "light beings" to speak truths and initiate necessary societal changes.
3. Soul, Spirit, and Ego: Distinguishing Inner Voices
The conversation then shifts to defining soul, spirit, and ego and their interrelationships.
Angie defines the soul as the non-physical part of you that lives forever. When the body dies, the soul carries on, accumulating information from each lifetime. This information can manifest as intuitive "knowing" or natural talent in a new life, as seen in "old souls" or prodigy children. Angie shares her own experience of intuitively knowing how to farm and milk goats, attributing it to past life experiences.
The spirit is defined as the characteristic of who you are; your personality, the character that embodies you. It's the unique essence of an individual that people recognize and appreciate.
The ego and the soul are like "two sides of a coin" during a human experience. The ego, Angie explains, is concerned with anything you think is important.
"If you say I'm not good enough your ego is there to make sure you're not good enough if you say I'm amazing your ego is there to make sure you're amazing... your ego is there to make sure that everything you see in the world is accurate and true so if you say nobody cares about me the ego is is there to make sure nobody cares about you and so your your perception will change on that observation and the ego is going to point out all the times people are unloving towards you but if you change that perception you change their mind the ego is now going to take on your new mindset and that's why it's important to say wait what am I thinking because my ego is going to make sure if you say oh people are so nice and loving the ego is going to change its mind too because that's what it's designed to do and now you're going to be like wow all these people are so friendly to me all people are giving and they're sharing things and that's amazing."
This highlights the ego's powerful role in shaping one's perception and reality based on ingrained beliefs. Dr. Alexis adds that people often seek evidence to support their preconceptions, emphasizing the importance of cultivating positive, life-affirming beliefs. A healthy body and nervous system are crucial for this, as a dysregulated state can incline someone towards negative perceptions.
To distinguish between the ego's voice and the soul's guidance, Angie offers practical advice:
- The ego often focuses on materialism, personal gain, or outcompeting others, even if it means causing harm or generating "bad karma."
- The soul offers a gentle pull or guidance, never forcing or leading one astray. It speaks when asked and is always in the background.
She recommends starting with small, everyday decisions to build a relationship with your soul. In the Chek Institute's Holistic Lifestyle Coaching (HLC) training, they teach soul connection by asking simple questions, like "Should I eat this cookie?" or "Should I have another cup of coffee?" The soul provides a yes/no response, and by observing the subsequent feelings (e.g., regret, physical discomfort if overriding the soul's "no"), one learns to trust this inner wisdom.
Angie shares an example of her husband, Paul, asking his soul about eating a gluten-free cookie. After one, the soul said "no" to another, but he ate it anyway, only to wake up with a pimple the next day, confirming his soul's accurate guidance. Building this trust with minor choices prepares one for major life decisions. She recounts how she and Paul consulted their souls about buying their house during the 2020 pandemic, and despite external fears, their souls affirmed it was a good time, leading to unexpected blessings like readily available workers.
Dr. Alexis shares her own experience of strong "gut feelings" – a physical sensation in her stomach – guiding her decisions, such as declining a postdoctoral position at Harvard despite its initial appeal. Other forms of soul communication include dreams, which often convey unfinished business or opportunities for change. Angie recalls dreams of drowning that led her to change her college plans, preventing a potentially dangerous path.
Regarding the distinction between inevitable fate and controllable situations, Angie suggests:
"If it's inevitable in your life you probably won't dream about it it's kind of like this is when she needs to go there's nothing to do dreams are usually unfinished business or something you can change you know so it's not going to tell you usually when you're going to die unless you're ready to die but if you had a dream when you're young you're not going to want to you're usually not ready to die so that would be alarming and perhaps give you an opportunity to change gear so you choose a different path right."
She also mentions "angelic interventions" – seemingly random encounters with people who offer timely advice or guidance – as signs to change course. Dr. Alexis emphasizes that ignoring these cues from life leads to a difficult, "white-knuckling" existence, while following these "golden threads" creates a more effortless, synchronous, and "magical" life.
Angie reinforces this with the Chek Institute's concept of the "pain teacher," where ignored subtle nudges escalate into more severe challenges like illness or accidents, forcing attention and redirection. She encourages living one's dream, as not doing so means living someone else's, leading to unfulfilling challenges. Symptoms, in this context, are not merely nuisances to be numbed, but messages from the body requiring attention and inquiry into deeper causes.
4. Karma, Past Life Regression, and Soul Contracts
The conversation then explores the concept of karma. Angie confirms that karma travels between lifetimes. Individuals may carry karmic debt from previous lives into their current one, choosing to experience the pain they inflicted on others.
She then introduces past life regression, a technique she uses to help clients understand current life challenges by exploring previous incarnations. In this trance-like state, clients journey back to another lifetime to observe their actions, relationships, and events.
"The idea behind is we go in with the intention of so it can help you in this lifetime so is there something that happen so most times not most times all the times I do this with intention people will get nuggets of their life and go oh my gosh this is why."
Angie shares the story of a male client who had chronic problems with women. Through past life regression, he discovered the root cause in a previous lifetime, and once he understood it, his issues resolved. She also mentions discovering recurring relationships across lifetimes, offering clarity on whether to end a "soulmate" contract for future lives.
A particularly striking anecdote involves a client who experienced intense, unexplained anxiety every day at 2:00 PM for 15-20 minutes. Through past life regression, it was revealed that she was a pilot shot down at 2:00 PM in a previous war-time life, dying in the ocean. This was a combination of past life regression and soul retrieval, as a fragmented part of her was still reliving the anxiety of that traumatic death. Reclaiming that part eliminated her anxiety. This highlights how bringing awareness to the source of deeply rooted patterns can effectively dissolve them.
Understanding one's past life karma can foster self-compassion, as one realizes they chose a challenging life to experience and repent for past actions. This acceptance can lead to a release of the karmic burden.
Intriguingly, Angie states that soul contracts can be rewritten in this lifetime, not just in the afterlife. This empowering idea relies on the belief that it's possible; as the ego is "always right," it will help facilitate the change if one believes it can be done. Angie has gained this knowledge primarily through personal experience and observation, emphasizing the value of empirical research and connecting the dots in her practice, a stark contrast to the often reductionist "scientism model" that devalues individual experience.
She stresses that physical health is foundational, enabling access to mental, emotional, and spiritual bodies.
"So above so below so if your mind is healthy sick sick body sick mind you know and vice versa so if you're if you want to work on the upper levels get your body healthy enough to do so."
5. The Healing Power of BioGeometry
The conversation transitions to BioGeometry, a science based on ancient Egyptian techniques, founded by Dr. Ibrahim Karim. As an architect, Dr. Karim sought to understand the healing properties of Egyptian pyramids and other sacred sites worldwide. He discovered that these sites emit three specific energies: the higher harmonics of gold, the higher harmonic of ultraviolet, and vertical negative green. When combined, these "BG3 energies" balance all biological systems – plants, animals, and humans.
BioGeometry aims to harmonize one's home, garden, and surroundings using these principles. Angie highlights its relevance in the modern world, especially with the proliferation of 5G towers. Dr. Karim developed ways to balance 5G towers to emit healing energy instead of harmful, cancerous energy. His early work in Hamburg (likely Germany or Austria) involved "Hamburg emitters" based on shapes. After implementing these, the town saw a dramatic reduction in cancer rates, tinnitus, and leukemia, with animals also recovering.
"Everybody who had the ringing in the ears immediately stopped and like it's gone what happened it's gone and they were able to see it and so you know the the people who were like bah humming it said oh you know it's placebo effect and and he is like well really he goes what about the animals is it placebo effect for them too."
Dr. Karim's research extended to animals and even fruit trees, showing improved health, increased yields, and longer shelf life.
A crucial discovery within BioGeometry is bio-signatures, which are energetic blueprints for how organs optimally throw energy. Dr. Karim identified these from ancient manuscripts and continues to develop new ones. When the body is exposed to environmental stressors (Wi-Fi, EMF, toxic food), its energetic flow can be disrupted, leading to suboptimal pathways and inviting illness. By tracing these bio-signatures on a person's body or using paper "emitters" with a person's picture, the signal is sent back to the body, reminding the organ how to be balanced and facilitating healing.
Angie shares a powerful personal story about her mother, who was diagnosed with pulmonary fibrosis in 2020 and given two years to live. By combining lifestyle changes, nutrition, supplements, and applying lung bio-signatures, Angie's mother's lungs began to regenerate. Her doctor, initially skeptical, was astounded when six months later, her lungs had improved – a phenomenon considered impossible for pulmonary fibrosis patients.
"Unbelievable your lungs got better he goes with people who have pulmonary fibrosis they either stay the same or get worse they don't get better and he's like so whatever you're doing my mom rolls up her sleeves and she shows the biogeometry had written on her arms and stuff and he was interested because this doctor was actually been a doctor for over 30 years and I was so proud of him because he could have easily said oh we misdiagnosed you but instead he goes no yeah he goes I know what I saw and I know what you had and I know what you don't have anymore he goes so whatever your daughter's doing she was keep doing it because she's getting results I can't get."
While not a panacea, BioGeometry has shown remarkable results, especially in younger, more resilient individuals. Angie often uses a pendulum (specifically an IKUP pendulum) to assess energetic imbalances in clients, even remotely through photos. She prides herself on identifying issues without prior knowledge from the client, validating the power of the technique. She shares recent success stories, including pinpointing kidney, testes, and eye issues in a swollen child, who recovered overnight after receiving the appropriate signatures.
Angie's extensive background in biology and anatomy allows her to connect detected energetic imbalances with physiological understanding. She recounts diagnosing a child's multi-organ issues as a pinched nerve in the spine, accurately traced to a fall from monkey bars, which a chiropractor then corrected.
The IKUP pendulum also helps identify imbalances across physical, mental, emotional, vital, and spiritual levels, connecting negative thoughts to physical ailments. Angie uses it with live clients, photographs (even old, unfiltered ones work as they hold the genetic blueprint), and animals. She's used it to diagnose her sick pig's stomach ache and even predict her goat's birthing time down to the minute. She can also assess future time zones for pre-surgical support or check on loved ones in comas.
For listeners interested in learning BioGeometry, Angie recommends biogeometry.com and offers a discount code "CHEK75" (CHCK75) for $75 off the online foundation training. This course teaches how to use tools like colored stakes to balance energies in plants and property, enhancing growth and disease resistance. She's personally harmonized her entire property, even resolving a long-standing gap in a hedge by placing a colored stake.
Angie links colors to nutrient profiles, explaining that the color of fruits and vegetables indicates an excess of specific nutrients. Red tomatoes, for instance, contain lopine and other nutrients associated with the red vibrational energy.
Regarding bio-signatures on the body, Angie clarifies:
- They can be drawn on any body part.
- They must be drawn in a specific direction (top-down or left-to-right) and in one continuous flow without stopping, as indicated by arrows in the BioGeometry bio-signatures book.
- Incorrect direction or broken lines render them ineffective.
- They do not need to be visible, but they work better if exposed to air and light, not covered by tight, unbreathable clothing.
- Paper emitters with a client's picture can work remotely, as long as they are exposed to air and not placed in a drawer or flipped over.
- Green is the most healing color for drawing signatures. Angie uses Big Tattoo Body Mark pens which last about a week.
- Signatures may change over time as the body heals, requiring reassessment.
- For those new to drawing, one can take a photo of the signature from the book, shrink it on a screen, cover it with Scotch tape, trace it, and then apply the tape to the skin.
- The size of the signature does not matter, only the precision of the shape and the continuous flow. Minor imperfections in circles or shapes are generally accommodated as long as the overall structure and direction are correct.
This detailed explanation of BioGeometry, its applications, and practical tips offers a fascinating glimpse into a powerful healing modality.
Conclusion
