The invitation of the Sacred Prostitute: Complete receptivity - Lian Brook-Tyler

All The Everything is Lian’s monthly solo show where she often shares what she’s been creating, consuming, and celebrating before diving deep into a topic inspired or chosen by members of the Be Mythical fb group. The LIVE making of the show is recorded in our Facebook group and for the first 30 minutes before Lian hits the record button you are invited to a pre-show party to get up close and personal with Lian and have your questions on the month’s topic answered. To receive a reminder of when the pre-show party and LIVE making of All The Everything is happening, make sure you’re subscribed to our email list and are a member of the Facebook group. All the details you need are HERE! This show begins by Lian telling a soul-stirring story of The Sacred Prostitute from the book of the same name by Nancy Qualls-Corbett. Lian then invites listeners to notice and explore the thoughts, feelings, and sensations that were evoked for them personally by the story, before moving into speaking about some of the universal themes, such as fear, repulsion, objectification, desire, and receptivity activated by this archetype, and how to work with them. 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: The Sacred Prostitute evokes such deep collective themes that she can be an incredible potent archetype for showing us where our work lies - notice and honour what she brings up for you The Sacred Prostitute requires a deep level of maturity and individuation to work with deeply - Lian emphasises the importance of doing the foundational healing work and journeying through other archetypes before devoting to work with the Sacred Prostitute because she is such a magnet for fantasy and projection. Receptivity is a key aspect of the Sacred Prostitute archetype, but it is often misunderstood and undervalued in our culture, which of course is why it’s so needed, powerful and medicinal when we do experience it.

Spirit teachers: How to hear and learn from them - Jonathan Horowitz

This week’s show is with Jonathan Horwitz. Jonathan was born in the USA and has lived in Scandinavia for over half his life. He has been actively working with shamanism since 1972, was a teacher and field researcher at the Foundation for Shamanic Studies for 10 years and has a master’s degree in anthropology. In 1986, Jonathan co-founded the Scandinavian Center for Shamanic Studies and has been teaching internationally ever since, in Russia, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Belgium, Sweden and the UK. He has been a frequent contributor to Sacred Hoop magazine and served for some years as European Editor for Journal of Shamanic Practice. He lives with his partner Zara in the woods of southern Sweden at Åsbacka, their home and retreat center. Jonathan is known for his grounded, present and warm teaching style. He sees shamanism as a spiritual path and his main focus is shamanic healing, spiritual ecology and shamanic community work. As a teacher, he feels his role is to help people find the road to the Spirit world, encourage them to accept the power offered, and learn how to bring power back to the physical world.Shamanism is about life. Life is change. Shamanism is change with power.  In this show, Jonathan and Lian explore the topic of  learning from spirit teachers. They begin with Jonathan’s own story of attempting to live a more conventional life before realising that it wasn’t his true path, that alongside some profound and also disruptive experiences, led him to explore the spiritual realms. Jonathan also discusses discovering his path of shamanism through his friend, well-known shamanic teacher and author, Michael Harner, which went on to inspire him to embrace the practice of learning from spirit teachers. Lian and Jonathan spoke about the transition from learning from human teachers to spirit teachers, stressing the need for patience, trust, and openness in this ongoing process, which can last a lifetime! 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: Working with spirit teachers requires patience, trust, and openness to learn their language and receive their teachings - they may not come in the form we expect or want The transition from learning from human teachers to learning from spirit teachers is a natural progression in the shamanic path, though it’s one we can either rush towards or resist. The teachings from spirit teachers are vast and endless, and there is always more to learn.

How to navigate your soul's path with astrology and psychology - Jessica DiRuzza

This week’s show is with Jessica DiRuzza MFT. Jessica is a depth psychotherapist, astrologer, and teacher, as well as a wife, and badass mama. For over 15 years, she has worked lovingly and collaboratively with individuals, couples, and groups on their embodied transformative journeys. Her life’s calling is to integrate the insights and wisdom of astrology and psychology to support humans living the most meaningful lives they can with the precious time they have here. She offers sessions online with people from around the world and from all walks of life. Jessica received her Master’s in Counselling Psychology with an emphasis in Depth Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute, where she wrote her thesis on shame and the reclamation of the feminine voice. She earned her bachelor’s from California Institute of Integral Studies where she studied and taught archetypal astrology and transpersonal psychology. Together with her husband, Travis, they co-founded Trust Psyche School of Astrology and Depth Psychology, which offers a full astrological curriculum, from beginner to professional, with a beloved community of students from over 25 countries. They would love for you to come live astrology with them. In this episode, Jessica delves into her fascinating journey of intertwining astrology and psychology, revealing how these two disciplines—astrology as the language of the sky and psychology as the language of the soul—are profoundly interconnected. She shares how her experiences with psychedelics sparked a deeper exploration into astrology and depth psychology, emphasising the transformative power of uniting these fields to better understand one's purpose and navigate life's challenges and uncertainties. Lian shares her own return to astrology and together, they explore how astrology provides profound insights into identity, purpose, and relationships. This discussion offers a unique perspective on embracing one's individuality and making conscious soulful choices through the lens of astrology. 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: Astrology is the language of the sky and psychology is the language of the soul, and they are deeply interconnected - providing maps of the macrocosm and microcosm - as above, so below. Uniting, or perhaps re-uniting, astrology and psychology offers a powerful framework for understanding our deepest identities, life purposes, and how we can more consciously navigate challenges. Astrological charts can offer profound insights into who we are, including potential neurodivergent traits. There’s so much wisdom available in a chart, that just focusing on one aspect, as you heard in this episode with Lian’s Libra stellium, can provide a deeper understanding, allowing for making more informed decisions and cultivating a more authentic, expressed life.

How to harness the power of myths and archetypes on the path of the soul - Mike Bais

This week’s show is with returning guest Mike Bais. Mike is a physiotherapist, counselor, university lecturer and author, also having had his own practice for many years. He is a trained priest in the esoteric christian tradition, which lead him to follow the mystical side of this lineage called the A.S.A. (Apostolic Succession of Arimathea). He believes that the Teachings of Christ are universal and should not be limited to a religious structure. His esoteric training comes from the western mystery tradition and the Toledano Kabbalah. Living in the Netherlands (Utrecht) he extensively worked with teachers and groups in the UK.  After some decades of study and practice in the western esoteric tradition, the inner work came together in these three streams or disciplines that make up the Circle of Avalon. Mike sees it as his life’s work to teach these traditions to whomever wishes to receive them. He is a mystic and teacher by nature and through his groups, individual sessions, workshops and writing, transmits them in the most pure and true way he knows. Mike is the author of 3 books: Paths on the Tree of Wisdom – A course in 21st Century Kabbalah, A Kabbalistic view on science: Book 1 and A Kabbalistic view on science: Book 2. In this show, Mike and Lian discuss the power of myths, legends, and archetypes on the path of the soul. Mike shares his own journey of discovering the importance of myths and working with the round table mythology. They also discuss the cultural conditioning that dismisses the role of myth and the need to reclaim its relevance in our lives. They explore how archetypes can be used as guides on our individual quests and how they can help us navigate different aspects of our lives. 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: Cultural conditioning often dismisses the role and relevance of myth, but it is important to reclaim its significance in our lives - working with myths and archetypes allows us to access deeper dimensions of ourselves and explore what is possible beyond societal limitations. Myths have the power to inspire and guide us in our personal growth and spiritual transformation. Although there is an objective aspect to archetypes, subjective experience is an essential aspect of working with archetypes, and it is important to embrace the subjective nature of these experiences. Trust and honour that subjectivity by finding a myth that resonates with you as a first step. The interplay between different archetypes and the relationships between them are crucial in understanding their power and significance - this is part of why working with archetypes within a community or group can amplify their potency and create a deeper sense of connection and understanding.

Neurodivergent parenting: How to journey into self-discovery, acceptance & ancestral healing - Jessica DiRuzza

This week’s show is with Jessica DiRuzza MFT. Jessica is a depth psychotherapist, astrologer, and teacher, as well as a wife, and badass mama. For over 15 years, she has worked lovingly and collaboratively with individuals, couples, and groups on their embodied transformative journeys. Her life’s calling is to integrate the insights and wisdom of astrology and psychology to support humans living the most meaningful lives they can with the precious time they have here. She offers sessions online with people from around the world and from all walks of life. In this episode, Lian and Jessica go unexpectedly deep on the topic of neurodivergent parents, parents of ND children, and really, so much of what they spoke about is relevant to all parents who are devoted to honouring their own and their children’s wild souls. They’d actually planned to record on a completely different topic (astrology and psychotherapy - which they’ve now recorded too!) but within two minutes of getting on the call, Lian mentioned that she’d seen that they’re both autistic, they began sharing their own experiences and that with their children that brought tears to their eyes. They realised that it was the topic they needed to speak about first - and it turned out to be an incredible and moving episode, that went in some deep, painful, and thought-provoking places… places that bring us face to face with our conditioning and wounding… places that we believe anyone on the path of soul needs to go at some point, ND or not. They explored the journey of self-discovery and acceptance of being autistic, and how it relates to individuation, parenting and ancestral healing, and the role of parents in breaking the cycle of masking, misunderstanding and abuse, and promoting unconditional love and acceptance. 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: Creating a safe and accepting environment for neurodivergent children to be themselves is crucial for their well-being and growth but we also need to go first as parents, and devote to a journey of self-discovery and self-acceptance for ourselves too. One of the most challenging aspects of this journey is understanding that being true to oneself can have impacts and consequences - learning discernment is important. When we are able to love and accept ourselves as neurodivergent people, we are healing our lineage too, the generations that came before us and will come after us.

Everything You Always Wanted To Ask Us... Vision Quests, England, mirrors and love! - Lian Brook-Tyler and Jonathan Wilkinson

This week’s show is with Be Mythical co-founders, Lian Brook-Tyler and Jonathan Wilkinson. In this conversation, a special 10-year episode of the podcast, Lian and Jonathan reflect on their journey, including the deep unfolding of the show itself, and answer listener questions posed to each of them. They discuss the organic and spontaneous nature of starting the podcast and the importance of trusting their intuition, the dedication and vision it has taken to be consistent over so many years. The personal and thought-provoking questions they asked and answered were: If you had to drop all your different practices and only keep one - what would it be and why? Looking back on the past 10 years, what are you most proud of? And is there anything you regret or would like to have done differently? If you could give one piece of guidance to a young man who is struggling with life, what would it be? What is something about you that you’ve rarely or never spoken about publicly before that you feel ready to speak about now? If you could go back in time 10 years ago and tell yourself something at the outset of this podcasting journey what would that be? If you could whisper into everyone’s ear in the world at the same time in whatever their language is what would that be? What was the most powerful experience of your life? Where is the most magical place you have been? If you were trapped on a desert island what one item, spiritual or not, would you bring? In responding to these questions, Jonathan and Lian talked about the power of vision quests and the impact they can have on personal growth and maturity, the concept of mirrors and how they can provide deep self-reflection, finding beauty in suffering, and the magic of the English land. The conversation concludes with a powerful message of love and self-discovery. 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: Looking back on the reason the podcast began shows the importance of trusting intuition and following the organic and spontaneous nudges that show up along the way. Many of their answers came back to the importance of self-discovery and the different ways we can walk the path of knowing thyself And now a question for you, the listener, imagine if you could be transported in time to a decade into the future and take a look at your future self, living your own soul’s truth… What would you see? And what does that require of you now? Resources and stuff that we spoke about: Join UNIO, the Academy of Sacred Union.

How mythology and shamanism speak the language of the soul - Chris Lüttichau

This week’s show is with Chris Lüttichau. Chris is the founder of Northern Drum Shamanic Centre, a UK-based educational organisation offering a renewed perspective on traditional shamanic and medicine teachings, and a safe grounding from which to learn them established in 1998. Chris is the keeper of an integral body of teachings that he shares in workshops and ongoing training groups. The teachings cover a broad range of topics from healing and the art of dreaming to spirit contact and the way of the council. Chris is the author of the critically acclaimed book on shamanism ‘Calling Us Home – Find Your Path, Your Balance and Your Inner Strength’ published in 2017 and ‘Animal Spirit Guides: Discover your Power Animal and the Shamanic Path’ published 2009. He is an international teacher, and has appeared on TV on BBC 1, and in Denmark on TV2, and has given radio interviews in the USA, Canada, and the UK. In this show, Chris and Lian explored the intersection of shamanism and working with myths and archetypes. They discuss the power of myths to reveal truth and teach us about ourselves and the universe. They also delve into the different ways that myths are understood in Western Vs. shamanic cultures, with the Western perspective often viewing myths as symbolic archetypes and the shamanic perspective seeing them as living, magical stories. They highlight the importance of relating to myths from the heart and intuition rather than the analytical mind, and the role of myths in guiding us to live in harmony and prepare for death. Overall, Lian and Chris invite listeners to build a bridge into the mythical reality. 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: Myths are powerful stories that reveal truth and teach us about ourselves and the universe, and can guide us to live in harmony with all of life and prepare for death. The Western perspective often views myths as symbolic archetypes, while the shamanic perspective sees them as living, magical stories. Relating to myths from the heart and intuition allows us to enter the mythical reality and receive direct guidance. Building a bridge into the mythical reality is a way to reclaim our birthright and live in a more connected and meaningful way.

How to use psychedelics as healers and change workers - Paul F. Austin

This week’s show is with Paul F. Austin. Paul is a prominent figure in psychedelics, has guided millions to safe and meaningful psychedelic experiences through his work as the founder of Third Wave. Featured in Forbes, Rolling Stone, and the BBC's Worklife, he pioneers the convergence of psychedelics, personal transformation, and professional success. Paul empowers leaders, creatives, and pioneers to leverage psychedelics for profound personal and professional growth. Paul's expertise also extends to microdosing, a trend gaining momentum. He authored "Mastering Microdosing," a comprehensive guide that seamlessly blends research and anecdotes. It's a transformative resource for leaders, creatives, and healers. He views psychedelics as refined skills cultivated through mentorship, exploration, and purposeful use—critical for humanity's ongoing evolution. As the longest-standing and youngest entrepreneur in this field, Paul's focus on merging psychedelics with professional development is evident in his transformative training program Psychedelic Coaching Institute The program caters to individuals who seek to integrate their psychedelic experiences into their business practices, all under the guidance of one of the industry’s most trusted leaders. In this show, Paul and Lian explored the topic of working with psychedelics in a healing and transformative capacity, especially for those of us already in the change-work field. Paul shares his origin story and how he combined his passion for meaningful work and social impact with psychedelics. They discuss the modern stigma around psychedelics Vs the historical use of these substances. Lian and Paul talk about potential benefits of including psychedelics in change-work and emphasise the need for intention, reverence, responsibility, integration, and community when using psychedelics as a catalyst for healing and transformation. 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: Including psychedelics in change-work can break through deep conditioning and armoring, allowing for more subtle energetic techniques to be effective. The stigma around psychedelics is rooted in archaic religion and outdated policies, and it is important to move past this stigma to explore the potential benefits of these substances. The historical use of psychedelics in ancient and indigenous cultures suggests their benevolent impact on human consciousness. Creating systems change and a new paradigm requires a communal approach and a focus on impact and interconnectedness. Reciprocity and honoring indigenous wisdom are essential in the psychedelic space, especially for those of us who are benefiting directly or indirectly from their generosity.

In this conversation, they reflect on the challenges for old souls in fitting in and the longing for deeper conversations and connections. They discuss the vital role of intentional community in personal growth, touching on the need for discernment in choosing communities, the roles we each play, the need for intention, and the impact of technology on modern-day connections.
