#029: Archetypes

From Sunday school songs about David and Goliath to Superhero movies to politics on the world stage, archetypes are under it all. But, what the heck is an archetype? And why should any of us who are not philosophers care at all? Join us as we talk about where this term originated, how it's been understood through human history, and how we can engage with it in our everyday lives.

#028: The Adversary

We probably attempted to bite off more than we could chew with this episode. (But when has that ever stopped us?!) Life is an experience of opposites. Light, dark; good, bad; right, wrong. Every one of us instinctively fights this substrate of life itself. We don't like things that feel bad. We see an enemy out in the world. There seems to be more than ever of that these days. How can we hold the enormity of the suffering (and beauty!) of this world, while keeping our minds, eyes, and hearts open? It's a tall order! We don't claim to have all the answers, but we did enjoy exploring a bit of this territory. We hope it touches something within you, as this difficulty and joy within each of us is a universal experience.

#027: Emptiness From a Buddhist, Christian, and Scientific Perspective

Are the objects we perceive as "real" as they seem to be? And what could that possibly have to do with everyday human life? For thousands of years, humans have been noticing something interesting about the nature of their minds. Modern science has been discovering the same thing, but about the physical world around us. Emptiness simultaneously points to a void as well as an ocean of possibilities. Join us as we attempt to wrap our arms around the experience of emptiness that is as big as life itself.

#026: Values & Desire—Living Aligned and Alive

This week, we are stepping into a conversation about the deep current of our values and desires. Many of us have gone through those abstract corporate values exercises, but values are far more central than a list on a wall. They are the "North Star" that helps us decide whether to move right or left in any given moment. But what happens when the values you’re living by aren't actually yours? We often inherit a life—expectations, roles, and fears—long before we are able to choose one. We might be doing "everything right" and still feel a certain deadness inside, or find that our souls have gone quiet because we are living too far from our own center. In this episode, we explore: * Duty vs. Control: Unpacking the idea that "duty is ours and consequences are God’s" and how to let go of micromanaging outcomes. * The Evolution of Value: Why it's okay (and natural) for values to shift from rigid childhood rules to dynamic, living "verbs". * Coming Alive: Distinguishing between shallow surface cravings and the deep soul-longings that act as the animating force of our lives. * The Gift of Heartbreak: How grief and loss often reveal what we truly love and what actually matters to us now. Whether you are feeling stuck in a "trance" of cultural expectations or simply wondering where your "deep gladness" meets the world’s hunger, this episode is an invitation to reorganize your life around what makes you come alive. Because, as poet David Whyte reminds us, anything that does not bring you alive is simply too small for you. ************ Website | www.RememberingYou.Life [http://www.RememberingYou.Life] Instagram | https://link.rememberingyou.life/RrMGJn [https://link.rememberingyou.life/RrMGJn]  Facebook | https://link.rememberingyou.life/NOqNbk [https://link.rememberingyou.life/NOqNbk]  Subscribe to the Remembering You podcast: iTunes [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/remembering-you/id1849270510] | Spotify [https://open.spotify.com/show/6wbRpcfXc3Nw6foR6jXhGK?si=VJvepOCJRKSB0HM3KBZ3dQ] | iHeartRadio [https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1323-remembering-you-303479219?cmp=ios_share&sc=ios_social_share&pr=false&autoplay=true] | YouTube [https://music.youtube.com/channel/UC6_lT67m4ajTpxmFWzO4V_g?si=knVNsQ2CYauPjPGv]  Podcast music licensed for non-commercial use by mobygratis.com

#025: Einstein’s Secret: Is Imagination the Ultimate Intelligence?

"...knowledge is limited...while imagination embraces the entire world..." When Albert Einstein dropped that truth bomb, he wasn't just talking about physics—he was pointing toward a vital, often forgotten part of our human operating system. In a world that prizes the "rational" to the point of burnout, have we accidentally divorced ourselves from the very capacity that makes life feel meaningful?  In this episode, we explore the Imaginal System—the bridge between the objective world "out there" and the subjective world "in here." We dive into why treating your body like a machine is a trap, and how the "transjective" way of seeing can turn a routine Monday into a fresh start.  In this conversation, we wonder through: * The $10,000 word for reality that might change how you see your morning coffee.  * How a toddler’s curiosity about a Texas wildflower reveals the scale of our internal world.  * The surprising connection between EMDR, ancient desert mystics, and the "sonar of the soul." * Why "acting as if" your silverware is alive might actually be the most practical thing you do all day.  Whether you’re battling a problem that logic can’t solve or you’re just tired of feeling like a "head being carried around by a body," this episode is an invitation to see again.  Visit us at rememberingyou.life [http://rememberingyou.life/] to join our upcoming circle.
