Have you been stuck for a while, longing for harmony in life, wondering why you just can't heal? Could it be that the issue is not you, and not even the healing methods that you use? Could it be that what is missing is the bigger picture?

We can't do it alone. We were never meant to. Nor were we meant to grow in a linear progression of unchecked expansion that destroys everything in its way.

Western history has shown that such expansion, is, perhaps, a little bit too destructive in the long term... If you think of it this way, it makes sense this is not a very good model for healing, either.

So what is the missing piece? In this conversation with Hollie Wildëthorn, we talk about just that. We discuss the power and gifts of the land, the ancestral spiral ways versus the linear ways, and so much more!

Hollie Wildëthorn, founder of the Institute for Self Crafting, is a psychotherapist, clinical counsellor and coach working in the intersections of trauma healing, neurodiversity, ecology and feminism. She has a background in natural and ancestral health, witchcraft and magick, altered states and sacred space, martial arts and natural movement, Women's Mysteries and conscious Wild Living.

For hundreds of years, the Western civilization has been divorced from its feminine oracular dimension, the symbolic mind. In this episode with author and researcher Betty Kovacs, we talk about altered states, the marriage of mysticism and science, and the current hunger for spiritual experience as the fifth Renaissance of the symbolic mind.

Courtney Thomas started on the path of spiritual development as a juvenile inmate, when the words of Jesus "you will do even greater works than I do" caught his eye. Now Courtney is a co-owner of a float spa and salt cave, and a teacher of transcendental meditation.

In this podcast, Courtney shares his story, and his understanding of how a spiritual journey is different from belonging to a religion. We talk about taking responsibility, bearing fruit, and the path to inner peace. We also discuss transcendental meditation — what it is, how it works, and where to find out more.
