Protect Your Noggin Stacie and Jeff Mallinson
-
- Religion & Spirituality
An expedition through the ruins of religious dogmas and political ideologies, and toward the goal of finding spiritual, financial, and mental emancipation. Regular hosts are Stacie Mallinson (death doula and yogini) and Jeff Mallinson (D.Phil., Oxford, historian of philosophy and religion). The couple started the show to help people outfox religious wolves, only to realize that they too were entangled in religious ideas that need deconstructing. They now document their life experiences since ghosting church and finding a form of mysticism that is compatible with critical thinking.

The Mysterious Mother
Stacie leads us through three chapters from the Tao Te Ching that discuss the mysterious mother. What does this archetype and symbol say about our perspectives on femininity, society and the sacred? How does this differ from traditional American evangelical views of women and feminine characteristics of the divine? Is there a difference between being a source and being a creator? How can we let children and the things we cultivate grow spontaneously rather than through our constant control?
