Permission To Be Human

26: Letting Go of Attachments: A Discussion on Death, Poetry & Pagan Holidays


Listen Later

Andrea & Janelle attended a Letting Go of Attachments ceremony in honor of Samhain (pronounced Sawwen), a Celtic celebration to honor the end of harvest season and the beginning of winter. The idea? To release one object from their life and allow its energy to nourish another. Includes a nod to Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nina Hagen and Rising Appalachia. You'll hear:

-The importance of a Death Folder

-How less stuff can help us be at home in ourselves

-Why writing your own eulogy is revealing and challenging

-A beautiful poem by Naima Penniman

-Why avoiding the idea of death is the ultimate growth-stopper

Get ready for some real-time relationship woo and wisdom--from the front lines about how breaking rules, blurring boundaries and tossing tradition--along with polyamory and plant medicine--have been catalysts for finding our truth. The Permission to Be Human Podcast debunks the myths we were told about fairytales and forever, so we can create a new map for life, love, and conscious relationships. Freedom is, in fact, the new F word.

If you're seeking permission to choose your own path, and want to feel less alone along the way, we've got you.

With heart-shaped sunglasses,

Janelle & Andrea
