To celebrate poetry month, a conversation with one of England's greatest living poets, Alice Oswald. Winner of the 2017 international Griffin Poetry Prize for her book Falling Awake, Oswald's work explores the relationship between human life and the natural world. Her latest title, Nobody, is a book-length poem inspired by Homer's Odyssey.

On this mornings's show we talk to Victoria Kennefrick about her new collection Egg/Shell, just published by Carcanet, a double album, as she describes it, which explores early motherhood and miscarriage, and the impact of a spouse's gender transition and the dissolution of a marriage. The book is a follow-up to her widely acclaimed first collection  Eat or We Both Starve. Hers had been described as one of the boldest poetic voices to emerge in recent years and Egg/Shell is The Poetry Book Society Spring Choice 2024.‘It is hard to hurt and then explain the hurt away / so as not to hurt anyone. But have you seen / my life?' (‘Child of Lir')Today also sees the return of the Toaster Challenge, where our guest talks for the length of time it takes to cook up a nicely done slice of toast about a book that has resonated with them. Victoria's choice is Falling Awake by Alice Oswald. Intro/outro music: Colm Mac Con Iomaire, ‘Thou Shalt Not Carry' from The Hare's Corner, 2008, with thanks to Colm for permission to use it.

Housing is an essential human need, but as the average median house price in Australian capital cities now exceed $1 million, this requires some very significant dropping into the marketplace in order to afford a roof over our heads. According to the research of PGAP's esteemed guest Dr. Alex Baumann, the act of owning a property of one's own can place one in that dreaded 1% richest people in the world. Alex discusses why the privatisation of land forces us all into lifestyles that are antithetical to the degrowth movement and why housing needs to be at the core of post-growth activism. Alex also explains why public housing is one overlooked solution and how reinvigorating this asset is part and parcel to a degrowth future. Ready to have your whole perspective on housing turned around? This is the episode for you! Dr. Alex Baumann and I found each other on the Town Planning Reblellion (TPR) Facebook group. Find out more about TPR and its parent organisation, Holistic Activism here (https://holisticactivism.net/town-planning-rebellion-tpr/). Want to be an ACTIVE part of the housing revolution? This is a great place to start. I interviewed TPR founder, Mark Allen on season 2's “Exploring Christie Walk EcoHousing with Adelaide Chronicles and Town Planning Rebellion. (https://pgap.fireside.fm/christiewalk)” If you liked the themes in this episode you'll love that one. I first came across Alex's good work in an article in The Conversation titled: “We are the 1%: the wealth of many Australians puts them in an elite club wrecking the planet (https://theconversation.com/we-are-the-1-the-wealth-of-many-australians-puts-them-in-an-elite-club-wrecking-the-planet-151208).” The article was co-written with Samuel Alexander, whose has been a inspiration for me in the Degrowth movement. Speaking of Samuel Alexander! The song of choice for this episode, “Meditations on Simplicity” is from the Mortimer's Method album ‘Dreaming Backwards, Falling Awake' (https://mortimersmethod.bandcamp.com/album/dreaming-backwards-falling-awake), based on excerpts from the Degrowth fiction novel ‘Entropia' by Samuel Alexander. ‘Entropia' isn't the only fiction work on post-growth out there. PGAP interviewed Sharon Ede (https://pgap.fireside.fm/magenovel), post-growth activist and author of ‘Mage', in season two of PGAP. Alex is even more animated on video! He explains many of the points raised in this episode and more in the YouTube video “A New Path to Sustainability (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRHIhmxknF4).” Ted Trainer is an inspiration for Alex and was brought up several times during the interview. You can hear the PGAP interview with Ted in full here (https://pgap.fireside.fm/tedtrainer). Finally, Martin Tye, Australian regional chapter director of CASSE, will be giving a zoom presentation for the Sustainable Living Festival on "Degrowth & the Steady State" on 06th February, 9am AEDT. More information can be found on the SLF website (http://www.slf.org.au/event/degrowth-steady-state/). Martin was a guest on the first ever episode of PGAP (https://pgap.fireside.fm/steadystate) and I'm sure he will be just as excellent in his presentation as he was on the episode! Essentially, I can't recommend him enough. Please contact PGAP (https://pgap.fireside.fm/contact) with your thoughts and feedback or rate and review us on Apple Podcast.

My guess is you have never heard of Dave Ellis or Falling Awake.  Well, either did I until I read the book Falling Awake 17 years ago.  Dave Ellis has been a role model for me and has inspired me more than any man I have even met.  For more information about Falling Awake click on this link: FallingAwake.com          

There are a multitude of reasons why we fall into sleep or a kind of dreaminess or even a sense of “nothingness” during meditation, and it’s helpful to know what these are so that we can use our practice to work with these states, and discover more clarity, energy, and wakefulness - not only in our practice, but in our daily lives. Shell explores these and more in this talk on what is called the hindrance of "sloth & torpor."

Alice Oswald, Radio 4's Poet in Residence, discusses her collection Falling Awake which won the Costa Poetry Prize 2016. Falling Awake explores two of Alice Oswald’s recurring preoccupations - with the natural world, and with the myths of more ancient civilizations. Alice studied Classics at university and on graduation became a gardener. Homer, she says, made her a gardener because in the ancient world, the archaic poets create continuity between human beings and our surroundings. The poems in Falling Awake move easily from the observation of the falling rain, or the stealthy tread of a fox through a darkened garden, to the sight of the head of Orpheus floating away on the River Hebron after he's been killed, with his voice still singing as it goes. And, then finally, to Tithonus, a forty-six minute poem written for performance which is a gripping evocation of dawn - again from an idea bequeathed by classical mythology. The poem takes us, as it did one summer as Alice observed the dawn, from the moment when the sun is six degrees below the horizon to the breaking of light. Presented by James Naughtie with readers from the charity Poet in the City asking the questions.

Jessie Burton discusses The Miniaturist, her debut novel which was the subject of a bidding war between 11 publishers at the 2013 London Book Fair. Set in Amsterdam in 1686–87, the novel was inspired by Petronella Oortman's doll's house which is on display at the Rijksmuseum. Jessie explains how she created her own fictional version of Nella Oortman for the novel. At the age of 18, Nella marries a rich merchant, Johannes Brandt, hoping for love and prosperity. Instead, she enters a world of tensions, secrets and mystery which soon threatens her future. Johannes gives his new wife an extraordinary wedding gift: a miniature replica of their home. As the enigmatic craftswoman delivers more and more miniatures for the cabinet house, its tiny occupants start to mirror their real-life counterparts in unexpected ways. Presented by James Naughtie and recorded with a group of invited readers.

The Mindful Parenting in a Messy World podcast with Michelle Gale is for parents who long to be meaningfully connected to themselves and their children, even as the demands and complexities of modern life are accelerated.  Michelle has been reading Jon Kabat-Zinn’s new book Falling Awake, How to Practice Mindfulness in Everyday Life and she wanted to share it with everyone. From Amazon... More than 20 years ago, Jon Kabat-Zinn changed the way we think about awareness in everyday life with his now-classic introduction to mindfulness, Wherever You Go, There You Are. He followed that up with 2005's Coming to Our Senses, the definitive book for our time on the connection between mindfulness and our well-being on every level, physical, cognitive, emotional, social, planetary, and spiritual. Now, the original text of Coming to Our Senses is being repackaged into 4 smaller books, each focusing on a different aspect of mindfulness, and each with a new foreword by the author. In this second of these books, Falling Awake (which was originally published as Part III and Part IV of Coming to Our Senses), Kabat-Zinn focuses on the "how" of mindfulness - explaining how meditation brings us into intimate relationship with all our senses, how to establish a formal meditation practice, and how to overcome some of the common obstacles to incorporating meditation into daily life in an age of perpetual self-distraction. By "coming to our senses" - both literally and metaphorically - we can become more compassionate, more embodied, more aware human beings, and in the process, contribute to the healing of the body politic as well as our own lives in ways both little and big. Remember to register for the free online conference Mindful Parenting in a Messy World which runs from September 18th-20th here. Sign up for the Mindful Parenting Online Course ‘The Foundations of Practice” offered October 2018 here.  

There are a multitude of reasons why we fall into sleep or a kind of dreaminess or even a sense of “nothingness” during meditation, and it’s helpful to know what these are so that we can use our practice to work with these states, and discover more clarity, energy, and wakefulness in our daily lives. This talk explores ways that we can use our practice to "fall awake."

Peter Cushing died in 1994 yet curiously he reprises his famous role of Grand Moff Tarkin in the new recently-released Star Wars film Rogue One.

Motivation: No matter what line of work you’re in, sometimes you have motivation and sometimes you just don’t. When you are feeling motivated, it’s easier to make decisions and do what needs to be done; when your mojo is running low, you can get distracted and lose your productivity.   Today’s guest is Mark McGuinness. He’s a coach, motivational expert, poet and author. He has written two books Motivation for Creative People and Resilience: Facing Down Rejection and Criticism on the Road to Success. In addition, his work has been featured in Vogue US, the Wall Street Journal and the Discovery Channel.    Today Mark talks to us about motivation and resilience. Some of the topics discussed include:   What motivation is and what it isn’t: Mark defines it as whatever gets you moving.  How to foster long-term motivation when the project or goal is not short-term.  How organization and sticking to a schedule can help keep you motivated.  How curiosity makes a big difference when it comes to motivation and follow-through.  Mark’s first thoughts on mojo, including what he does when his is flagging, what doesn’t work, who inspires him, and his mantra.  Some ways to avoid being hurt by rejection and “taking it personally.”  Actionable tips on getting and staying motivated.   Links and Resources:   Mark’s Poetry  Creative Coaching  Training for Creative Companies  Mark on Twitter  Mark on Google  Mark on Facebook  Motivation for Creative People  http://www.facebook.com/LateralAction  Resilience: Facing Down Rejection and Criticism on the Road to Success  The Power of Habit, by Charles Duhigg  Falling Awake, by Dave Ellis http://lateralaction.com/resilience/    If you have enjoyed today’s episode, please subscribe to our weekly inspiration email list and leave us a review on iTunes.
