In this episode, BT explores the themes of dissolution and rebirth through the lens of mythology and psychology. He delves into the alchemical process of transformation, using the Norse myth of Ymir as a metaphor for the cycles of death and rebirth that occur in our lives. Drawing on the insights of Carl Jung, he emphasizes the importance of embracing the chaos of the unconscious as a source of nourishment and wisdom. The conversation highlights the sacred nature of dissolution and the potential for new beginnings that arise from it.
