Brace yourselves, this one is a little different…My guest this week, Stella Marie, shares her explorations into animism and her personal & ancestral connections to the land. A heavy lean into discussions about the sacredness of all life, indigenous wisdom, and the potential transformative power of reconnecting with traditional knowledge systems is at the heart of this conversation. This episode delves into Stella's personal story of spiritual awakening and recovery from loss & addiction through reconnecting with nature, the potential of therapeutic psychedelics, and the broader implications for ecological and collective healing.
Key Points Discussed:
The Power of Animism: Stella explains animism as seeing the world where every entity, human or non-human, is a sovereign being.
Cultural Roots and Indigenous Wisdom: Insights into how reconnecting with her Celtic roots transformed Stella’s view of the world and her place within it.
Psychedelics and Healing: Stella shares her personal experiences with psychedelics and how they aided her mental health and spiritual growth.
Ecological Justice and Social Change: How ancient practices and modern struggles intersect in the fight for a more just and sustainable world.
Reconnecting with Nature: Stella emphasises the importance of community, seasonal living, and the inherent wisdom of natural cycles in fostering a deeper connection to the earth.
Stella’s powerful story and insights offer a compelling look at the intersections of personal healing, cultural identity, and ecological awareness. This episode invites listeners to consider how embracing ancient wisdom and fostering deeper connections with all forms of life can help address modern challenges and transform our world for the better.
