Tom Garcia on Using Sacred Space to Connect with Your Inner Self


Listen Later

This episode is a bit different. You’re going to hear a lot about sacred spaces, ritual, and prayer today … but in more of a spiritual sense, not a religious one.

Dr. Tom Garcia describes himself as a shamanic teacher and spiritual guide with a unique gift for helping people clear away the blocks that keep them from reaching their dreams and experiencing peace and happiness.

Through wisdom born of personal experience and genuine humility, he helps people awaken, strengthen and deepen their connection within to rediscover their true voice and unearth their deepest calling.

With the help of the mystical guides who led him to his own spiritual awakening, he uses clear guidance and gentle presence to move past fear and uncertainty into the light of your own wisdom. 

He lives with his family in the mountains of Colorado.

Topics discussed in today’s episode:
* EST (Erhard Seminars Training), a personal growth program from the 70’s.
* Tom’s transition from a Chiropractor to starting to develop fire ceremonies.
* The roles of ritual and ceremony and importance of safe spaces in inner / personal growth work.
* How our own views and biases distort how we see and interpret the world.
* The importance of support system and familiar / comfortable activities in supporting one’s personal growth & development work.
* Imposter syndrome and how it can impact and hinder our growth and development.
