Welcome to the Encountering the Core podcast! We are Orion Crook, LPC and Jacob Foreman, two human queers living in the Deep South. We discuss magic, art, narrative, and a variety of other curiosities through the lens of psychotherapy. We invite you to listen along as Sunshine interviews Orion about their creative and professional practices and how we might incorporate the lessons of embodied arts psychotherapy into our daily lives.

Dissociation
We discuss the ways that we split off from ourselves, get lost in the ether, lose touch. The ways we dissociate. And, importantly, how we might move back into ourselves and our surroundings. We discuss the relationship between time, dissociation, sexuality, gender identity, and dance floors. Tune in for a glimpse of what existence beyond dissociation, even if for a moment, may feel like.
As always, follow us on Instagram @EncounteringTheCore. Send us any questions, comments, haikus, parables, tidbits. Music in this episode is from Home of the Hearth and James McAlister.

Enhancing Awareness
Join us in this episode as we discuss ways of enhancing awareness, of grounding our presence in moments of reactivity. Meditate with us; learn about Orion's engagement with clothing tags; and perhaps alter your relationship with the word "trigger." What in our lives do we want to be more aware of? How can we enhance our awareness of those things?

Secondary Spiraling
This episode is all about those moments when we pull ourselves back into reactivity. Whether it's judging ourselves or some other secondary reaction that attacks our awareness, how do we locate land mines and learn to transform them into something that we can move with?

We discuss what Orion referred to as "the birth of mental health" in our first episode: awareness. We talk about the layers of awareness; begin our exploration of cognitive distortions; and discuss patterns in Jacob's romantic endeavors. This episode also features a bonus intro to deep breathing exercises (unplanned though, so maybe we'll do more of that some other time).

Orion shares insight they have developed as a psychotherapist and we discuss how we can utilize knowledge of our programmed bio-emotional responses to alter our relationship with trauma and triggers.
