In this episode, we welcome Laura Lee and Paul Robear, Co-Directors of the Cuyamungue Institute, for a conversation that explores the deep intelligence of the body, the soul’s journey through collective darkness, and the call of a benevolent universe. As stewards of the embodied meditative practice of Ritual Postures, Paul and Laura Lee share insights from their global work with ancestral wisdom, ecstatic trance, and the quantum nature of consciousness. Together, we examine how body, spirit, and intuition converge to guide us home to who we truly are.
ABOUT PAUL & LAURA LEE ROBEAR
Paul & Laura Lee Robear are the Co-Directors of the Cuyamungue Institute, a 501-c-3 non-profit educational research institute founded by the late anthropologist Dr. Felicitas D Goodman in 1979. Under their leadership, the Institute has flourished as the world headquarters and international hub for the embodied meditative practice of Ritual Postures encoded in ancient art. They host weekly on-line experiential events, in-person workshops around the world, speak at academic conferences, and collaborate with researchers, artists, and cross-cultural wisdom keepers on various projects. As teachers, speakers, authors and changemakers, they share the story and age-old "access codes" to our collective legacy of ancestral and self-knowledge, made relevant for today's unprecedented challenges.
They continue to question and unravel the stories we as a culture tell ourselves about who we truly are. This is a quest that began with founding a multi-media company featuring Paul's book and video publishing and Laura's hosting of a popular nationally-syndicated radio talk show interviewing over 3,000 leading edge, mutli-disciplinary researchers.
With thanks and gratitude for all of our listeners.
