In this episode I reflect on how I’ve experienced men’s work and how I see it best defined. Additionally I explore the topic of integration, drawing from my most recent insights integrating ayahuasca using art therapy.
Subtopics that arise:
- Men’s work in public vs intimate spaces
- How Men’s work varies from person to person
- The importance of Men/Women’s work
- The desire to externalize our darkness
- How the spiritual ego interrupts healing
Song in intro- "Light of the Mountain" by Brandon Tilt
I acknowledge that I learn, grow and heal on the unceded ancestral lands of the Kwikwetlam first nation, the Stolo and the Tseil-Watuth first nations. These lands were never abandoned nor surrendered by those with the ancestral rights to steward and protect these lands.
I honor and respect the elders, the children, the land stewards, the land protectors, the medicine keepers, and the men and women of all indigenous nations.
Huy ch q’u (thank you) to those who support the indigenous communities and actively decolonize their minds and their spirits.
Aho Mitakuye Oyasin, All my relations.
