Greetings! In this episode, we speak of what we mean when we use the word power, and what we mean when we say power-over culture. We speak of composting power-over culture and how one might do that through inner-led change. It is a vulnerable and tender conversation that reveals our own experience and grappling, healing and transformation as we ourselves compost the shadows and wounds of power-over culture within our own psyches and within the relational culture that is Starter Culture. Music by Tamsin Elliot, Uma's Song from the Album Fey
Join us, Claire Milne and Sara McFarland, as we tend the heart of Starter Culture and share what has brought us here and why each of us are passionate about what brings us to this work, the inner-led transformation of power-over culture into relational culture. With music by Laura Brady Strong Ones from the album Stitch and Ocean Website: http://www.wren-music.com
Description The second part of our Eco-Awakening conversation of belonging to Earth Community, with Bell Selkie Lovelock and Sara McFarland. In this episode, you’ll find an experiential invitation to deepen into your senses and encounter the wild others within and without. We speak about how to Eco-Awaken, how to experience ourselves as Earth and how to continue the practice of it in our daily lives. With poetry by William Stafford and Joy Harjo. Music by Tamsin Elliot http://www.tamsinelliott.co.uk/
Bell Selkie Lovelock and myself, Sara McFarland, speak about Eco-Awakening, which is the psychological, emotional, physical and spiritual remembering of the fact that we each are a part of Earth and that all beings are our Kith, in reciprocal relatedness. Come along with us for an imaginal journey through poetry, song and stories into the heart of belonging to Earth Community.
Welcome to our first podcast, in which we dive into the heart of Starter Culture and all the ways in which we expand consciousness beyond the power-over culture into human wholeness and the other-than-human. We talk about the necessary death of the modern paradigm and the grief and fear that brings with it, the ways we might decolonize at depth and at scale, and the necessity of inner work for outer change for a possible future cultural renewal. www.starterculture.net
