elder training

This episode we lean into the Mystic and Monk Meister Ekhart as he offers a poem that give us clues how to restore our own sense of wholeness and togetherness with the Great Mystery and how we've fallen into amnesia of our own birthright.  We are entering the stories and myths that awaken forgotten knowledge and endangered rememberings.. 

This is part of our Wisdom Talk series where we're restoring the honorary place beside the fire for the Elders, Wisdom Keepers and Medicine People. 

Listen in to a conversation with Patrick Pinson of Cedar Mountain Drums who I consider a Coyote Medicine Man...  Patrick is a special elder in my life who's dedicated his life to birthing Medicine Drums, Rattles and Sacred tools.  He embodies the spirit of the archetypal wisdom elder... a wisdom carrier and shares through the traditional process of birthing medicine drums that leads you to what are called the unteachable learnings. 

This was a very inspiring and powerful conversation.

This is an episode from our other podcast called Medicine Story where we lean into what called Soul-Speech... our original language that weaves us back into the landscape and how we're being dreamt by the Earth.... It's an ancestral perspective that informs us of the deeper meanings in our life experiences , why we're here, and where we're heading.

When we can look at our life path through an indigenous lens, we see our life as a journey of initiation, rites of passage, and discovering hidden gifts.  We break free from the colonized psychology that traps us in a self-depreciating loop that binds.  We're breaking enchantments and reclaiming our life.

This is an episode shared in our other podcasts called Medicine Story and felt it relevant for here.

Here we tap into the Oral Tradition of Storytelling where what the old one call the Unteachable Learnings may surface and reveal what's ready for you to receive.

In the story of the Half Girl, we lean into how we lose parts of ourselves and what's a more traditional path of regathering the lost parts of ourselves  and become whole again.
