flow and being – Détails, épisodes et analyse

in this episode, i talk about the nature of dualistic thinking, the influence of the medical model on our perception of physical conditions / structures, and the interplay of science and spirituality within the context of metaphysical discussion. i also touch on mental health as the conduit for understanding the gaps that exist in the medical model, and how our post-modern society is trying to reconcile the parts of our selves that we have severed in the name of science.

DISCLAIMER

please note that within this episode, i talk about my religious views as a Christian and refer to God as "Him." while i do not think that God can be defined by any pronouns, i have been coming to terms with my own faith and i am in a season where seeing God as my Father is healing for me. since it is a personal and vulnerable story, i wanted to be true to what my heart wanted to say.

this episode is part 1 of the short series exploring the realm of shadows. join me on a brief journey discussing the origins, definitions, and perspectives on the subconscious mind in psychology. i also provide a little life update, where i'm at with my training, and talk about how this all relates back to some of the inner work i've been doing in my own life.

in the next episode i will be discussing spirituality and the subconscious. specifically, deconstructing narratives in social media and pop psychology.

intro/outtro song: God Remembers by Anthony Catacoli

When you have a "spiritual awakening," the brokenness of the world becomes harder and harder to grasp. There is no way back to the bliss of "living in the matrix" - so how do we move forward with this new sense of reality? How do we learn to navigate a world that we feel stranger to? How can we live a mindful life in the midst of war and corruption, financial strife, mental illness, and suffering? How do we find our life's purpose? In this episode, I introduce some of the concepts we will be covering in future episodes and discuss my own spiritual journey briefly. I am so excited to continue sharing some of my thoughts and reflections, pulling wisdom from great thinkers from this generation all the way back to those who shaped our world thousands of years ago. Thank you so much for tuning in, hope you enjoy!
