In a lot of ways this is a continuation of the concepts we presented last time John was on the show; chiefly of the importance of the sage archetype for it’s expert ability to understand and draw wisdom from many sources— even those that may seem to be at complete odds with one another. This is a staggeringly difficult process, and it’s made even harder by the fact that many of the guiding doctrines and institutions we have available to us do little to cultivate a broad and balanced viewpoint of the world. In fact many actively guide us away from that balance. So in today’s conversation we’re going to dive into some of the ways this shows up in our culture and how it has a lasting effect on our ability to find meaning in life and develop deep connections to ourselves and the world around us. ➡️ See full notes on the companion blog: https://www.evolvemoveplay.com/meaning-balance-spirituality-john-v-ep-54/ ✅ ------------------------------ ⛰️ Nature Immersion and Movement Retreats: Nothing can take you deeper into a truly alive movement practice than one of our very exclusive movement retreats!
