An Alchemical Life
An incredible conversation exploring topics from shame, depression and the lost art of initiation to the roots of colonialism and the Great Human Wound of Separation with Jennifer Lighty. Jennifer Lighty is a word dervish—a storyteller, writer, mentor, and bodyworker whose work grounds the mythic dimension in modern life. She helps others rebuild the bridge between imagination, intuition, and logic so they operate from a holistic perspective. She’s also the author of Piko: a Return to Dreaming - her own story of remembering. Her passion is to reveal how myth and story can heal the divided brain and return humanity to a holistic perspective. Jennifer boldly shares her story of initiation through a journey with depression which eventually led to a reconnection with Nature. As the episode progressed, something magical happened. A discussion about shame opened to exploring the roots of capitalism, colonialism, empire and the human wound of separation from the Great Mother. It was a ride and one I’m so honored to share with you. Topics Include: * The Lost Art of Initiations: the Underworld Journey to retrieve your True Self * Depression in Modern Culture * Feeling IS the Purpose of the Human Experience * Empire & Colonization: the Cost for Humanity * The Wound of Separation at the Root of it All - Leaving the Great Mother * The Wisdom of Fairy Tales - Portals to Magic and Sacred Encoded Messages * Reconnecting to your own Safety and Belonging - no matter what’s happening in our world.
