Episode 216 - Rooms of the Soul

Raised close to the land, Benig Mauger is an internationally known Jungian psychotherapist, teacher, poet and workshop leader. She has authored a number of critically acclaimed books including Songs from the Womb, which sheds much needed light on the "loss of soul" encountered by many people due to our modern medicalized way of birth. In Benig’s latest book, The Soul & the Sea, she brings psychology and spirituality together and presents a range of rooms of the psyche where we grow and heal. Written from her home by the sea in Connemara, Ireland during the first nine months of the Covid lockdown, she draws from her own life experiences as a Jungian therapist and spiritual teacher to illustrate how connection to nature and the spiritual world can heal emotional wounds. Here are a few things we talk about: •We are in the midst of an unprecedented awakening •There is an imprint that the birthing experience leaves on the soul •There is often generational trauma around the birth experience •All women have their own birth story and what matters is what they feel about it •The inner power we have to heal, connecting with the wisdom of the earth •Heartbreak opens us to unconditional love •The great awakening is about the rise of the feminine •The importance of connection & community •The symbolism of water in dreams Website: https://www.soul-connections.com/ Book: https://www.amazon.com/Soul-Sea-Essential-Healing-Everyday/dp/1803411279 Audio webinar: https://www.soul-connections.com/product/webinars-replay-birth-into-being/ Membership program: https://www.soul-connections.com/membership/ © the spiritual forum 2023
