Soul Forum soulforum

Amber (aka; Sheilajit) is a performance artist who weaves her deep connection to the earth and the cosmos into dance and music. Her reflections on the ways she channels the wisdom and medicine of the cosmos is a wonderful reminder to us all; we are not just our physical bodies, we are the 13.8 Billion year long story of the Universe.
How are you working to collaborate with this Cosmic Body?
Dan and Amber discuss how such a journey takes shape in her life, and its impact on the way she views herself and the world we share.

Soul Forum: A conversational journey across the landscape of the collective soul. 
In this series - SoulBody - we explore the wisdom and wonder within our own bodies that can provide a pathway into the experience of soul. The season begins with reflections on the body each of us inhabits and ends with reflections on the wider earth or cosmic body. There is plenty of reasons to trust that any access to a relationship with the divine, or mystery, or the very essence of life, is primarily accessed through the body. Can we reverse the idea that the sacred has figured out how to incarnate, or become flesh and bone, and explore how our sense of the sacred manifests from within every body? How might you honor and explore the body that invites you into wonder?
Welcome to Soul Forum.

In the previous two episodes, Karen and Dan discussed the different ways she finds her soul within the earth body. In this conversation, April speaks with her about the origins of her journey from waking up in domestication to becoming feral, wild and free; all while learning to coexist with the earth body, developing a more symbiotic relationship with this beloved planet we all call home.

Welcome to Soul Forum.

When all you imagine of yourself is integrated into the rhythms, patterns, and sustaining energy of the planet, where do you derive your sense of soul? In this second episode, Karen continues to explore her perspective on the character of this most intimate relationship and how it informs her self-understanding, and her deepest engagement with world. As the episode concludes, her life as an environmental activist begins to shift as she copes with a planet in crisis and discovers a hidden grace in the inevitability of climate collapse.

Welcome to Soul Forum.

Is there some way to expand your sense of body to include the very planet that sustains us? In the next three episodes, we sit down with Karen Perry as she takes us on a journey into her experience of moving away from domestication and into the wild. There, she begins to find a way into a deeper connection to the soul of the planet. For many, it is their relationship with nature that creates their most spiritual moments. Can it be that there is some access to soul body held within earth body?

Welcome to Soul Forum.

The path of an artist is typically an uncommon one. In this episode, April sits down with Brian to unwrap the winding path that has led him to commit his life to a big goal that involves saving our planet in a conscious way.
-More About Our Guest-
Brian Enright's mission is to create works of art that inspire value and hope for individuals, communities and future generations; educating us about the beneficial impact of working with reclaimed materials.
All of our actions are interconnected and vital to our survival on this planet. Awakening as many people as possible to this reality is, therefore, increasingly important. By utilizing objects that would otherwise be discarded in landfill or forgotten places, he sheds light on the hidden potential of our refuse to literally take on a second life. He seeks to educate through his work on how better product design can and will eventually eliminate the end of lifespan for many man-made objects, an indispensable step in creating a sustainable environment worldwide for generations to come.
Enright and his art clearly demonstrate that simple changes in our thinking can effect positive changes in our culture and environment.

Welcome to Soul Forum.

Brian Enright is an artist who works with found materials; the stuff none of us tend to notice. It is an art form that can remind us that there is a deeper story that is hidden beneath the surface.
While we tend to focus on our individual soul and its expression, is there a way to tend to the story held within our collective soul?
Brian uses the discarded to explore what that collective story might look like, what it tells us about ourselves, and the worlds we create. How might each of us tend to the collective story of our shared soul that runs silently under everything we touch, and see, and feel?
