Bill Plotkin on The Descent to Soul
Bill Plotkin, an eco-depth psychologist and founder of the Animas Valley Institute, explores profound themes from his new book, The Journey of Soul Initiation. He delves into the roots of cultural and ecological decay, linking human development with societal change. Listeners are introduced to the five phases of the Descent to Soul, which include Preparation, Dissolution, and Metamorphosis. Bill emphasizes that true adulthood is rare and involves embodying our connection to nature. His ideas challenge conventional views on education, ego, and the process of initiation.
