Today's conversation is with Shauna Janz. Shauna offers a beautiful invitation into what she calls the "larger currents of resiliency" - which includes the wisdom of our bodies, our hearts, our ancestors, the natural world, ritual healing, imagination and altered states of consciousness.

As you will experience, Shauna brings a very tender, embodied and respectful approach to working with grief.

In this episode, Shauna explores:

• The importance of building strong personal "river banks" to allow the rivers of unmetabolized grief to flow into the larger oceans of life, and not flood or overwhelm our lives • How the skills of grieving has brought her closer to her "birthright of joy" and her signature as a "lover of life" • What to do when we feel like we are going to get lost if we allow our grief to come forward • The impact of our severance from the "deeper wells of knowing" - including how we relate to our bodies, ancestors, ritual etc.
