Manage episode 305022955 series 2996658
Episode Summary:
Your truth does not live inside of you like a gold coin at the bottom of a purse. Your truth, who you are, what your purpose is, illuminated as you come into felt relationship with the world.
Show Notes:
Join us today for Part 2 of my conversation with Philip Shepherd.
Philip is an international authority on embodiment and author of New Self, New World - Recovering our Senses in the 21st Century and Radical Wholeness - The Embodied Present and the Ordinary Grace of Being.
On today's show Philip shares how to move away from the head driven strategies of control and order, and into an embodied return to harmony and deep connection with the whole. He also offers wise and thought provoking answers to these listener questions:
- How do we navigate a system founded in oppression and inequity and create real and lasting change? (1:50)
- Why is there so much disconnection if our truth is wholeness, and how do we even start to repair the harm caused by our culture? (9:38)
- Why do we lapse back into old patterns, and how do we choose the thing we know is better for us? (14:35)
- How do we access our body's inherent wisdom and find our personal way forward in this time of crisis and social uprising? (25:46)
- Do you think we're headed for self-termination, and how do you orient to that possibility? (29:08)
