#21: East Forest — Music and the Muse as Medicine for Our Becoming Artwork

Spaces Between with Al Jeffery

Sitting around the philosophical fire, join Al as he explores integral perspectives and regenerative practices for restoring community in the 21st Century. What does it mean to 'queer the mind,' and live in congruence with the wholeness of who we are, to integrate our parts? In a deeply-connected-yet-fragmented world, Al invites ambitious thinking, deepens ways of feeling, and welcomes broadened epistemologies that may extend our cultural imagination to a more totalising and inclusive horizon. Through elucidating the mutli-dimensionality of the human condition through psychological know-how, philosophical insight, and artistic poetics, Al and the guests he invites attempt to weave a larger story in which to find ourselves and our way, together. How does our view on leadership and relating shift through an embodied developmental lens? How might we contribute to a life-regenerating future from the inside-out? Spaces Between is an open-inquiry into restoring connection in our lives, relations, and communities. Modelling generative dialogue, vulnerability, and courageous conversation, Al weaves not only a heard but felt journey back to connection with self and world 🌏

#21: East Forest — Music and the Muse as Medicine for Our Becoming

October 13, 2020 • East Forest • Episode 21

0:00 | 1:05:53

In today’s episode, we have the honour of connecting with East Forest, hearing some of his heartfelt stories and practices for listening to the muse, and partnering with sound as a healing agent on his own path home.

As someone who I’ve admired and sat in meditation or ceremony with many times in the past 2 years, it was an absolute gift to dive into live-dialogue with East. We explore the ancient role of music and sound in welcoming the invisible aspects of our fleshly lives, how building a relationship with the muse supports us in our own healing, as well as hear some about his own rituals and practices for remaining the vessel for sound that he is - and we all are!

This one is full. You could jot down many things on pen and paper, or, you could trust that your body will remember - it is all simply reminders after all!
