EP #319 - The Truth of Who We Are - An Interview with spiritual teacher, author and shaman, Jonathan Hammond
This episode with my guest, Jonathan Hammond is so powerful I can’t wait to share it. It is chock full of wisdoms, insights and practical tools for understanding our shadow and the truth of who we are.
This is Jonathan’s second visit to Empowering Chats and I am so grateful to once again welcome him back for another amazing chat. He is a spiritual teacher, a Shaman and an author.
In this conversation we dive deep into what is occurring globally on Mother Earth and how we as individuals are responding. Many of us are walking in fear and anger and allowing our shadow side to lead us through these unfortunate and scary times.
The work Jonathan does and what he shares in this episode illuminates more clearly what the purpose of doing shadow work is and how it can benefit us. He explains that Soul Retrieval is part of this new growth that is occurring now on our planet. As a healer he also shares that shamanic healing is about putting something back that was lost, or releasing something that no longer serves us and therefore should no longer be a part of us.
He goes on to say that many of us, including light leaders and light workers need reminding that shadow work can be addressed lovingly and recognized for what it is without it “overtaking” our light.
Here is how Jonathan puts it: If You are of the light, the darkness doesn’t overtake you it pushes you toward more light.
The more that light leaders and people of empathy who care to make a difference, are clear on what they are here to do, the more we can all lead with love, taking care to stay detached from the ugly occurring outside of us.
It is about sitting back to observe the whole picture and waiting to respond. Jonathan says it’s about walking our path of love and emulating for others how it is done until they see it and then decide to join us on this path.
Jonathan and I both discussed what we can do to stay focused on our light and the truth of who we are.
