We are living through the Great Transition and the collapse of social and economic systems and with that we come face to face with our existential sense of failure and shame in not being able to adequately function in this current dying system. We need to understand that this is part of our human process of waking up through a radical systemic shift. The inner revolution within our hearts and our minds is the place we begin, even as we must face losing jobs, not having enough money to pay our bills, and having crazy debts that surround us on all sides. When the corruption of our existing social, economic and political systems is systemic, where does that leave us? Let’s understand the territory, create some new maps for the world ahead of us, and understand within our bones and our bodies that we truly are the seeds of a new culture. A renaissance is upon us and it’s coming through us as we heal, as we share our hearts and honestly open up the vulnerable places within our lives to each other. We are all on this great spaceship Earth together. This is a deep place to explore and we have a perfect guide for this episode of Heart of It All.
