Using a few good stories, Dan works his way through a number of perspectives on what it means to imagine your spiritual life as an emerging spiral, or concentric circles, rather than a straight line. From the tree trunk, to the mythic story of Job in the Hebrew tradition, to discovering playground, to the Tenderloin in San Francisco, this episode invites you to explore the way your soul's journey might be unraveling and how you can pay attention to its curious dynamic.
-More About Our Guest-
Nearly thirty years ago Marjorie found herself in a hospital bed after brain surgery to save her life, paralyzed on her right side. The years since then have been a healing journey as she has regained her ability to walk, with support. Little did she know those years ago that one day she would be the author of five Easy Walks walking books focused on helping others, including those with mobility issues, to get out and enjoy the outdoors. Her most recent book, a memoir, is available on Amazon: My Liturgy of Easy Walks: Finding the Sacred in Everyday (and some very strange) places.

Soul Forum: A conversational journey across the landscape of the collective soul.
In this series - SoulBody - we explore the wisdom and wonder within our own bodies that can provide a pathway into the experience of soul. The season begins with reflections on the body each of us inhabits and ends with reflections on the wider earth or cosmic body. There is plenty of reasons to trust that any access to a relationship with the divine, or mystery, or the very essence of life, is primarily accessed through the body. Can we reverse the idea that the sacred has figured out how to incarnate, or become flesh and bone, and explore how our sense of the sacred manifests from within every body? How might you honor and explore the body that invites you into wonder?
Welcome to Soul Forum.
