SHOW SUMMARY:

We become who we are through relationships and because of the generations of family dynamics that have existing before we were even born.

Maybe your spouse’s family yelled and broke things during fights but yours hid away in cold silences and you didn’t realize it until your worlds collided.

Maybe your roommate’s family hoarded resources and your family shared everything in common and you didn’t realize it until after you crossed an invisible line involving a bag of potato chips.

Known and unknown family secrets, rules, and norms–stretching back generations–continue to powerfully influence our lives. Understanding how these systems work can help us enhance and repair our current relationships. What most of us may realize is that these ways of being with each other have been passed down through a number of generations to impact us. This is the focus of Dr. Janet Stauffer’s work (generational loyalty dynamics).

HIGHLIGHTS

• Janet's own story and epiphany that started with a not-so-fanatic Ford Fiesta and ignited her search for answers.

• The surprising research with babies and parents that show the early hardwiring for social connection. (watch the video mentioned in the shownotes at http://sparkmymuse.com)

• Doing the Doo and finding your “FOO-POO” (a.k.a. “family of origin toxic waste”)

• How exploring your family’s generational patterns will help you learn more about your self and your relationships now.

• The power of naming our feelings.

• Getting the courage to engage in difficult conversations about invisible, but powerful, family rules, norms, and secrets.

• How we can stop dysfunctional or insufficient generational dynamics in their tracks and pass down the best of our generational dynamics and loyalties to our children.

Thanks for listening!

In America, The Dark Night of The Soul has been commodified and routinely misunderstood. Doug and Lisa talk about many fascinating topics including the background of the originator of the term (Spaniard, John of the Cross), what we can expect during this stage of development, Mother Teresa's decades long Dark Night experience (a secret until after her death) and the spiritual harvest from that time, the worst mistakes people make when they encounter this normal stage of development, and how The Dark Night of the Soul is like Fight Club.

If you've ever felt like your prayers were bouncing off the ceiling, when they hadn't been before, or you sense you are traversing a terrible and arid spiritual desert, this show will give you solace and a penlight to persist on your way. Contribute to the conversation on the spark my muse Facebook page, or share this show with others who may be wandering in the night.
