This week we’re continuing our Wild Mind series by talking about the facets of the Eastern Self and how we can embody each piece in true integrity and wholeness. Plus we’ll talk about what happens when we are out of balance and begin to buffer and escape… and how we can fix those habits and trade them for healing ones.

In this episode, we’re continuing our Wild Mind series and diving into the sensuous, embodied, and emotive energy of the South. I explore how the South helps us tap into our authentic, wild, animal knowing of who we are and why we are here, and the deep knowing of our belonging on this planet. I also introduce the subpersonalities of the South – our Wounded Children, which often have us in a place of emotional reactivity, fear of being abandoned, and disconnected from our authentic self. I’ll also give you some practical ways we can integrate the qualities of the South through simple practices and reflections.

This week, I’m going to be referencing one of my fave models of the human psyche, proposed by Bill Plotkin. It’s really good medicine for many of the individual and societal challenges we are undergoing.

This week’s episode is all about the gift of paradox and the problems that can arise with black-and-white thinking. We’ll chat about how living in polarity IS living in wholeness and integrity, plus I’ll give you one practice to explore how we can embrace all parts of us.

In this episode, we talk about the super helpful self-coaching question, “So what?” and how we can use it to see how our mind works and free ourselves from unnecessary suffering, rewriting our stories to ones that better serve us.

In this episode, we talk about how nature helps us reconnect to our WHOLE selves, our Soul purpose, and to our communities. Plus, we discuss where modern industrialized society often falls short, or even intentionally blocks us, from connecting with our purpose and Soul.
