Practical Spiritual Support For The Overwhelm Of Modern Life - Caitlín Matthews

Lian and Celtic author and shamanic teacher Caitlín Matthews explore why so many people feel overwhelmed by world news, technology and everyday complexity, and how a minimum daily spiritual practice, prayer and ancestral support can help.Caitlín is an internationally renowned author, a teacher of shamanic training programme, a facilitator of Systemic Ritual® and the co-founder of the Foundation for Inspirational and Oracular Studies (FÍOS). She is the author of over 80 books, including Diary of a Soul Doctor, Singing the Soul Back Home, the Art of Celtic Seership, Celtic Devotional and The Celtic Book of the Dead. Her books have won a number of awards. She is known internationally for her work on the spiritual, mythic and ancestral traditions of Britain and Ireland. She teaches and works with communities and spiritual institutions worldwide from Iceland to Portugal and from USA to Australia.Caitlín is a co-founder of the Foundation for Inspirational and Oracular Studies (FÍOS), which is dedicated to the sacred arts that shape the landscape of the soul, via vision, dream and memory. FÍOS hosts masterclasses with exemplars of living, oracular sacred traditions that are rarely recorded in writing or given an honourable place in modern society. Caitlín has had a shamanic healing practice in Oxford for the last 30 years, working in the community to deepen connections to the ancestral traditions which are our heritage.In this episode, Lian and Caitlín talk about the heavy, hairy overcoat so many people are wearing in these times, made of 24 hour news, letters full of QR codes, local upheaval and the wider troubles of the world, all layered on top of whatever personal difficulty they have. Caitlín explains why that overcoat makes something serious feel catastrophic, and why it needs laying aside before anyone can see where they really are.They look at why spiritual practice is so often the first thing to go when life gets hectic, although it is the thing that can really help… what a minimum practice might look like, along with prayer, calling on the ancestors who already know how to meet plague and upheaval, and asking for spirit allies when things get stuck.Listen if you feel weighed down by everything happening in the world, or you’ve let your spiritual practice slip and wonder how to find your way back to it.We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.What you’ll learn from this episode:Why spiritual practice tends to disappear first when life becomes overwhelming, and how knowing your minimum practice keeps you connectedHow to tell which parts of your overwhelm are yours to act on and which belong in the hands of something greaterWhat happens when you ask for a spirit advocate to help with something stuck in bureaucracy, like court papers sent to the wrong city or calls that never get returnedResources and stuff that we spoke about:For Caitlín’s books & courses see: www.hallowquest.org.uk‍For more of Caitlín’s writing on a range of topics visit her Substack page here https://substack.com/@caitlinmatthewstigernaJoin UNIO, The Fellowship for Wild Sovereign Souls https://www.unioacademy.com/ : This is for the old souls in this new world… Discover your kin & unite with your soul’s calling to truly live your myth.Wild Sovereign SoulJoin our mailing list: https://www.wildsovereignsoul.com/moonlyUNIO: The Fellowship for Wild Sovereign Souls : https://www.wildsovereignsoul.com/unioGo Deeper: https://www.wildsovereignsoul.com/godeeperFollow us on:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1694264587546957Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wildsovereignsoulYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WildSovereignSoulThank you for listening!There's a fresh episode released each week here and on most podcast platforms - and video too on YouTube.

The Hidden Way Certainty Robs You Of Your Soul - Jonathan Wilkinson

If you keep asking for one more sign, opinion or teaching before taking a step you already know is right, here’s what that waiting is really doing, and what it takes to move.In this episode, Jonathan looks at the two ways the need for certainty tends to show up, the planning and the waiting, and at what we reach for while we’re standing on the platform, from another course to another hour of scrolling. He gets into where discernment ends and the kind of waiting that has no end begins, and what faith has to do with any of it.He moves into the breadcrumb your soul tends to give you in place of a whole map, and what it might ask of you to take the next step, small or large, while the certainty you wanted still hasn’t arrived.This one’s for you if you’ve got a decision you keep turning over, a plan you keep refining, or a yes you keep postponing until things feel clearer.We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.What you’ll learn from this episode:How to tell the difference between wise discernment and waiting that has no endWhat planning and waiting have in common, and what both might be costing youWhat it takes to take the next step while certainty is still missingIf this is helpful, there’s more of this waiting in our WSS fellowship, UNIO, twice monthly live guidance circles… come join us!Wild Sovereign Soul Join our mailing list: https://www.wildsovereignsoul.com/moonly UNIO: The Fellowship for Wild Sovereign Souls : https://www.wildsovereignsoul.com/unioGo Deeper: https://www.wildsovereignsoul.com/godeeper Follow us on: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1694264587546957Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wildsovereignsoulYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WildSovereignSoulThank you for listening!There's a fresh episode released each week here and on most podcast platforms - and video too on YouTube.

The Unusual Way Neurodivergent People Hold Paradox And Polarity - Caroline Carey

Caroline Carey, soul cartographer, writer, and author of The Neurodivergent Soul, joins Lian to explore why neurodivergent people so often find themselves living between two worlds at once, what the ancient symbol of the mandorla reveals about that capacity, and why it may be less a burden to manage than a particular kind of gift.Caroline Carey is a Soul Cartographer, workshop facilitator and writer who has spent over 30 years guiding people on journeys of self-discovery and personal transformation. Working mainly with women in the second half of life, she creates safe and creative spaces where story, movement, emotional intelligence, spirituality, and connection to nature come together.Drawing on intuitive, mindfulness, creativity and shamanic traditions, as well as her own original maps and frameworks, Caroline supports people in reconnecting with their inner wisdom, understanding their life patterns, and uncovering a deeper sense of purpose. Her work explores where soul meets story, helping others navigate life's transitions with greater authenticity, self-compassion, and meaning. Caroline is an advocate for neurodivergent people, a mother and a grandmother; she lives in Hastings, East Sussex. Her latest book is called The Neurodivergent Soul published 2026.In this episode, Lian and Caroline explore the mandorla, the ancient almond-shaped symbol formed where two opposing circles meet, as a map for something many neurodivergent people have always lived without a name for: the ability to see both sides, inhabit two worlds, and hold what others experience as contradiction without needing to collapse it into one.The conversation moves into what neurodivergent perception actually is, the pattern recognition, the depth of feeling, the acute sensitivity that can make ordinary life so hard and spiritual life so natural, and why so many neurodivergent people end up on shamanic paths without quite knowing how they got there. They also look at the masculine and feminine as a particular set of opposites that many neurodivergent people find themselves holding, and what it might mean that the tension between those two keeps showing up.Listen if you're neurodivergent and have always seemed to live in more than one world at once, or felt most at home in the space between things rather than on either side.We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.What you’ll learn from this episode:Why neurodivergent perception, particularly the depth of feeling and pattern recognition, may draw people toward shamanic and spiritual pathsHow the mandorla appears not just as a symbol but as a lived pattern, and how to begin recognising where it has already been present in your own storyWhat happens when the experience of holding two worlds at once starts being something the soul is calling us towardResources and stuff that we spoke about:Visit Caroline’s website https://middleearthmedicine.com/Caroline’s books & Oracle cards https://middleearthmedicine.com/carolines-books/Caroline’s Facebook https://www.facebook.com/caroline.careyCaroline’s Linkedin https://www.linkedin.com/in/carolinecarey/Caroline’s YouTube http://www.youtube.com/@CarolineCarey-NeuroSoulCaroline’s Podcast https://shows.acast.com/how-to-find-our-soul-purpose/episodesJoin UNIO, The Fellowship for Wild Sovereign Souls https://www.unioacademy.com/: This is for the old souls in this new world… Discover your kin & unite with your soul’s calling to truly live your myth.Wild Sovereign SoulJoin our mailing list: https://www.wildsovereignsoul.com/moonlyUNIO: The Fellowship for Wild Sovereign Souls : https://www.wildsovereignsoul.com/unioGo Deeper: https://www.wildsovereignsoul.com/godeeperFollow us on:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1694264587546957Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wildsovereignsoulYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WildSovereignSoulThank you for listening!There's a fresh episode released each week here and on most podcast platforms - and video too on YouTube.

How To Stop Reaching For Relief That Never Lasts - Lian Brook-Tyler

If you've ever picked up your phone, a show, a drink, or anything else to feel better, and ended up feeling worse, more drained, more restless, more alone, than before you reached for it, here's what's actually going on, and it has very little to do with a lack of willpower.In this episode, Lian answers a question sent in by a viewer, Sarah, who wrote in describing hours lost to her phone, her other interests falling away, and feeling overstimulated and emptied out by it at the same time.Lian goes into what "numbing" actually is, and what it's standing in for, looking at research on dopamine and reward, and at what happens inside the body when relief arrives with nothing to actually nourish the soul underneath it. She moves into why "numbing" and "nourishing" can look identical from the outside, which is exactly why relief like this never lasts, and what it actually takes to tell the two apart before the reach happens.This one's for you if you've ever come back from a scroll, a show, or even a walk feeling emptier than when you started, rather than fuller.We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.What you’ll learn from this episode:Why willpower alone so rarely works against the reach for empty reliefWhat's actually happening in the body when relief leaves your soul no more fed than beforeHow to tell "numbing" and "nourishing" apart before you've already made the reachIf this is helpful, there’s more of this waiting in our WSS fellowship, UNIO, twice monthly live guidance circles… come join us!Wild Sovereign Soul Join our mailing list: https://www.wildsovereignsoul.com/moonly UNIO: The Fellowship for Wild Sovereign Souls : https://www.wildsovereignsoul.com/unioGo Deeper: https://www.wildsovereignsoul.com/godeeper Follow us on: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1694264587546957Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wildsovereignsoulYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WildSovereignSoulThank you for listening!There's a fresh episode released each week here and on most podcast platforms - and video too on YouTube.

How To Find Your Soul's Role In The Spiritual War - Bernhard Guenther

Lian and psycho-spiritual researcher Bernhard Guenther explore how spiritual warfare plays out in each person's life, why purpose shifts over a lifetime, and how to tell a wounded inner part from an outside force.Bernhard Guenther is a psycho-spiritual researcher, teacher, and guide whose work explores the deeper architecture of reality and the evolutionary challenges humanity faces during this Time of Transition.Drawing on over two decades of study, practice, and inner work, he integrates esoteric wisdom, depth psychology, trauma healing, shadow integration, and a clear understanding of the spiritual and hyperdimensional forces that influence human consciousness.He is the founder of Piercing the Veil of Reality and co-host of The Cosmic Matrix podcast with his wife, Laura Matsue Guenther. Through online courses, mentoring, articles, podcasts, and retreats, he helps sincere seekers cultivate discernment, embody their true nature, and align with their deeper purpose in a time of profound change.In this episode, Lian and Bernhard return to spiritual warfare for a second conversation, this time bringing it home to the individual soul and what each person might be called to. Bernhard shares how he came to the US in his twenties certain he'd be a drummer, practising eight hours a day and visualising success, and how none of it worked out, until a roommate introduced him to bodywork and he found a healing gift in his hands.They talk about dharma as something fluid, lived as fully by a plumber who loves his craft as by anyone teaching spirituality, and look at why people fixated on fighting outer darkness can leave their own shadow untended... mistaking an abandoned inner child for an entity attachment, or sliding into grandiosity once they identify with the warrior archetype.Listen if you've wondered what your role is in the spiritual war, whether your purpose has to be something grand and overtly spiritual, or how to know if it's an entity or a part of you that’s creating thoughts and feelings.We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.What you’ll learn from this episode:Why the pull to feel chosen, special, or already awake is one of the most dangerous traps on the spiritual pathHow to tell a wounded inner part from something that has come in from outsideWhy focusing on dark forces can draw them closer, but why ignoring them leaves you more exposedResources and stuff that we spoke about:Visit Bernhard’s website https://veilofreality.com/Mastering spiritual warfare https://www.masteringspiritualwarfare.com/Watch the first part of our conversation here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIhokymeTmM&t=2524sJoin UNIO, The Fellowship for Wild Sovereign Souls https://www.unioacademy.com/ : This is for the old souls in this new world… Discover your kin & unite with your soul’s calling to truly live your myth.Wild Sovereign Soul :Join our mailing list: https://www.wildsovereignsoul.com/moonly UNIO: The Fellowship for Wild Sovereign Souls : https://www.wildsovereignsoul.com/unioGo Deeper: https://www.wildsovereignsoul.com/godeeper Follow us on: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1694264587546957Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wildsovereignsoulYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WildSovereignSoulThank you for listening!There's a fresh episode released each week here and on most podcast platforms - and video too on YouTube.

How To Reclaim A Lost Relationship With Your Body - Lian Brook-Tyler

If you've ever avoided a mirror or deleted a photo of yourself because you couldn't stand what you saw, here's what's really behind that, and it has almost nothing to do with how you look.In this episode, Lian answers a question sent in by a viewer: "How do you love and live inside a body that doesn't look the way you want it to?"Lian takes us back to a much older relationship with the body that most of us have lost entirely, one that sits outside both sides of where this conversation usually goes, body positivity on one end, looksmaxxing, GLP-1s and filters on the other.She looks at what's really happening every time you catch your own reflection, the real reason that drop in your stomach shows up at all.Lian moves into what it takes to find your way back to that older relationship, and why thinking your way there, or fixing your way there, rarely works.This one's for you if you've ever wondered how to love a body that doesn't look the way you want it to.#bodypositivity #relationshipwithyourbody #soulsode #reclaim #filters #looksmaxxing #comehome #body #homeinyou #loveyourbodyWe’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show.

How To Die: Destruction, Beauty & A Mind Coming Undone - Stephen Jenkinson

Stephen Jenkinson, creator of the Orphan Wisdom School and grief literacy advocate, explains what it's like to turn a lifetime of teaching about death toward his own Parkinson's diagnosis, and what he's found there that has broken open, humbled, and moved him.Stephen Jenkinson, MTS, MSW, has taught internationally and is the creator of the Orphan Wisdom School, co-founded with his wife Nathalie Roy in 2010. The School convened semi-annually in Ontario, and in the Gulf Islands, Canada and in Wales and Iceland.He has Master’s degrees from Harvard University (Theology) and the University of Toronto (Social Work).Apprenticed to a master storyteller when a young man, he worked extensively with dying people and their families, is former programme director in a major Canadian hospital, and former assistant professor in a prominent Canadian medical school.He is also a sculptor and traditional canoe builder whose house won a Governor General’s Award for architecture.Since co-founding the Nights of Grief and Mystery with singer/songwriter Gregory Hoskins in 2015, he has toured this musical/ tent show revival/ storytelling/ ceremony of a show across North America, U.K. and Europe, Australia and New Zealand.He is the author of Trembling, Still: The Awful Clarity of a Mind in Eclipse (2026) and numerous other books (for a full list of his books & music see the show notes linked below).Stephen Jenkinson is also the subject of the feature length documentary film Griefwalker (2008, dir. Tim Wilson), a portrait of his work with dying people. Lost Nation Road (2019, dir. Ian Mackenzie), and Murmurings of the Land (2025, dir. Mattias Olsson).In this episode, Lian and Stephen talk about what it's like to have spent decades helping other people meet their dying, and then have to meet your own diagnosis. That question runs under everything they cover, from the childhood illness he now recognises as an early imprint, to the raku cup he broke and had mended with gold (Photo in show notes, link below).They get into the word anesthetic, and how splitting it open changed how he understood addiction and beauty both, why he pushes back on the word joy, and what it means to recognise an ending while you're still inside it, rather than only afterwards, once it's already gone.Listen if dying feels like something that will just happen to you one day, and perhaps something you'd rather not think or talk about, than something you're consciously living into.We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show.

How To Be Guided By Your Soul - Jonathan Wilkinson

If you've ever wondered why your soul can feel so hard to hear, even when you're trying everything you know, here's what Jonathan says is really in the way, and three ways through it.In this video, Jonathan goes into why so many of us end up guided by something other than our own soul, the false self, old wounds, the conditioning of a fast, noisy modern world, and what that costs us over a lifetime. He looks at why the soul so rarely shouts to be heard, and why most people go their whole life mistaking its whisper for silence.He moves through the three primordial strands of the Wild Sovereign Soul path, wildness, sovereignty, and soul, and offers one simple, aligned action from each, small enough to start today, real enough to shift how clearly you can hear yourself.Watch if you sense there's something important underneath the busyness of your life that you haven't had the space to properly hear.We’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage.What you'll learn from this video:The one thing that closes the channel to your soul faster than anything elseThe real reason so many of us end up guided by everything except our own soulWhat it takes to hear your soul, which has never once stopped speakingWild Sovereign Soul Join our mailing list: https://www.wildsovereignsoul.com/moonlyUNIO: The Fellowship for Wild Sovereign Souls : https://www.wildsovereignsoul.com/unio Go Deeper: https://www.wildsovereignsoul.com/godeeperFollow us on: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1694264587546957Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wildsovereignsoulYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WildSovereignSoulThank you for listening!There's a fresh episode released each week here and on most podcast platforms - and video too on YouTube.

A Near Death Experience That Revealed The Miracle Of Prayer - Landon Dennis

Lian and NDE survivor Landon Dennis explore what his near death experience showed him that changed the course of his life, and what he learned about the power of prayer in particular: that it can arrive as literal beams of light, strong enough to drive away the dark presences he'd experienced since childhood.Landon lives in St. George, Utah, works as a peer support specialist, and has spent recent years sharing his near death experience across podcasts and his own YouTube channel.In this episode, Lian and Landon focus on what his NDE revealed about the power of prayer, from the beams of light he saw driving dark shapes away from him, to the moment he questioned two beings about whether prayer meant anything at all and was shown proof rather than given an answer. Along the way he describes arriving in a field of grass that seemed to glow with its own kind of love, and meeting his grandfather and niece as lights who still gave him the full weight of a hug and the words he needed to hear.The conversation returns to a night behind a dumpster that his NDE later showed him differently: the dark shapes he'd felt around him that night, and what they turned out to be once prayer arrived as light and drove them off.Listen if you've ever prayed and doubted it was doing anything, kept praying for someone who seems unreachable, or wondered what happens to the people you've lost.#NDE #prayer #powerofprayer #question #love #ancestors #afterlife #light #dark #emotion #fearofdeath #fearoflife #miracle #neardeathexperienceWe’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show.

How To Stop Letting Rejection Fear Run Your Life - Lian Brook-Tyler

If you’ve ever turned down a job, an opportunity, or a date you truly wanted, here’s what’s really driving that “no”, and what it takes to trust yourself with a “yes” again.In this video, Lian looks at why rejection can feel far more dangerous to some people than others, especially in ADHD and autistic minds, where this is often described as “rejection sensitive dysphoria”. She looks at the biological piece, differences in how the brain regulates emotion and filters threat, the genetic thread that runs alongside ADHD and autism, and the lived history of being misunderstood or criticised that can train a nervous system to expect rejection even when nothing dangerous is actually happening.She moves into what that fear costs over time, the jobs untaken, the people never asked, years spent grieving what could have been, and what it actually takes to build real evidence in the body that rejection is survivable, one small “yes” at a time.Watch if you’ve ever talked yourself out of a job, a date, or an opportunity, right before anyone else could turn you down first.#fear #rejection #soulsode #ADHD #autisticminds #rejectionsensitivedysphoria #emotions #nervoussystem #sovereign #body #brainWe’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show.
