    Talking as emotional alchemy

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.themazaj.org ‘Talking” is never just talking. Every conversation in which you attempt to honestly express your internal experience to another person, refines it and transforms it. Every articulation is a reorganisation of the psyche; sometimes subtle, other times remarkable. In this episode, I attempt to explain how. “Language is the house of Being. In its home man d…

    Can anything other than God give you real meaning in life?

    This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.themazaj.org Belief shapes who we are—our choices, our purpose, and how we see & interpret the world. But not all beliefs serve us well. In this episode, I’m pondering on the power of belief, both the good and the not-so-good, and why it’s so important to be intentional about what we put our faith in. Whether it’s religion, ideology, or personal philosophy, the thin…
