Seasonal Provocations and Vernal Uprisings! Eclipses, Retrogrades and Cleanses Oh My!
What is the commonality between eclipses, Mercury retrogrades, and tantra in teaching individuals how to evolve and grow? This episode explores what it means to align with nature, find steadiness amidst changes, practice sacred technologies like Dharmic, Ayurvedic, and tantric approaches, and the importance of cleansing and releasing old habits to lead a purposeful life with greater impact.
Joining the conversation is Ayurvedic physician and teacher at the Wild Temple School, Michael Van Sciver. Listen in as Michael and Brooke talk about cleansing and preparation for this time of year centered around the Vernal Navaratri. Also included are discussions on historical shifts post-agricultural revolution, personal transformation through indigenous village experiences, and the significance of living in harmony with nature for self-awareness and societal well-being.
