Patriarchy is deeper than cultural institutions or social norms — its root is a spiritual wound. Patriarchy is the result of a soul-body split, a dissociation that includes disconnection from the body, loss of groundedness or connection with Mother Earth, and spiritual bypass. Our cultural wounds are physiological, emotional, and spiritual — severing us from our true Self, from embodied spirituality, and from divine feminine wisdom. This is the split that fuels sexism, colonialism, capitalism, and the ecological crisis.

 Understanding where patriarchy comes from helps us understand that healing patriarchy’s wounds will not come only from social activism or institutional changes. Societal healing and collective awakening will come from our personal spiritual healing and embodied inner work. Healing from patriarchy requires trauma healing, a spiritual path of reclaiming wholeness in embodiment, and a spiritual awakening that includes reconnection with the earth and our bodies.

This episode explains how we got into this mess, and the next episode explains how we get out of it.
