Ep 5 | Breaking the Spell of Avoidance: A Multidimensional Journey into Embodied Liberation with Tara Tao & Maurice Harvey Hall

In this multidimensional conversation, founders of Light Meets Dark, Tara Tao and Maurice Harvey Hall return to the podcast for an impromptu, deep exploration of the often hidden patterns of dissociation, spiritual bypass, avoidance, and addictive patterns.

Together, they unpack how trauma lives in the body, how protector parts form to help us survive, and how these parts can create resistance to the very love, intimacy, truth, expression, creative life force we long to embody.

They explore how dissociation often emerges as an inherited response passed down through generations- shaped by un-transmuted ancestral memory, a colonial paradigm, multidimensional forces, and cultural conditioning.

Through the lens of Internal Family Systems, parts work, somatic-based healing, and transgenerational healing, this episode offers a grounded inquiry into what it truly means to feel safe enough to heal.

At its core, this is a conversation about how compassion, especially self-compassion, is the vehicle for transformation and the path that brings us back to ourselves.

Because healing is not just personal.

It is ancestral.

It is relational.

And it is deeply collective.
