Rewild Yourself with Elen Sentier
In today's episode of The Best Guest we welcome Elen Sentier a best-selling author of British native shamanism who describes herself as a quirky, wilderness woman who is deeply connected with nature. We talk about:
- What it means to rewild yourself
- How to stop people pleasing
- What happens when you're true to yourself
About Elen Sentier
Elen Sentier comes from a long family lineage of Cunning Folk and was brought up as awenydd (spirit keeper) in the old magical traditions of Britain.
Elen trained as a transpersonal psychotherapist with Ian Gordon-Brown and Barbara Sommers when health issues led her to retire from her career at the MOD. Elen was thrilled to discover how the transpersonal perspective integrates the personal with spiritual and transcendent aspects of being human, which meshed with the old magical ways she’d been brought up in.
Elen initially opened a practice in London but always more at home in the wilderness, she and her husband, a particle physicist, left London for the Welsh Marches. Here, Elen continued to develop her practice using transpersonal psychology and witchyness to help clients become their true selves, rewild their hearts and find what makes their hearts sing.
Elen has also taught her work through an apprenticeship and three-year advanced course for over 30 years. Her students, from all walks of life such as policemen, poets, stock brokers and doctors, go on to take the work into their own specialisms.
To date, Elen has published 12 books with the Moon Books imprint of John Hunt Publishing, three of which are bestsellers.
Her bragging rights include dancing for Arlene Philips; taking contemporary dance class with Robert Cohen; flying in Jaguar fighter aircraft; doing plasma-physics at the Culham Centre for Fusion Energy; and being kissed by Mick Jagger! She loves cats, and eats paleo, and her tag-line is “If the cat and the boyfriend disagree, get rid of the boyfriend!”
Key Takeaways- It's important to be able to say, I can't buy in to that
- Digestive problems can be about repressed emotions and stress
- Saying no gets easier when you feel your wild self
- It's important to get to the roots of why you people please
- Realise you don't have to keep playing other people's scripts
