Podcasts about full body presence learning

I have wanted to have Camille Barton on this show ever since they blew my mind at the Psychedelic Seminars’ presentation of “History of the Drug War, Colonization, & Racism.” And, perhaps as expected, they absolutely knocked it out of the park on today’s episode. On the show, we cover a wide range of topics threaded through with the theme of understanding colonization's impact on our world, our culture, and our bodies. We start with Camille’s childhood activism and spirituality before going deep on how the legacy of colonization impacts the modern Psychedelic Renaissance. We then discuss how this global trauma exists in the bodies of all people, and find an intersection between political theory and somatic healing. We close out our conversation with an exploration of gender identity and grief work. Camille is an artist, DJ, dancer, writer, speaker, and somatic educator who focuses their myriad talents on the intersection of drug policy, spirituality, and healing justice. They are the director of the Collective Liberation Project and creator of an approach to diversity and decolonization through trauma informed movement. They are currently creating a tool kit of grief practices with the Global Environments Network and have just release a somatic movement video called "The Grief Portal" allowing you to rebuild from “the compost of grief.” They also advise the EDGE Funders Alliance and MAPS to promote equal access to psychedelic medicine for people of color. Camille has created a dynamic space at the intersection of all their disparate interests and the world is far better for it.

For Life on Purpose Episode #80, my guest is Suzanne Scurlock-Durana, one of the world’s leading authorities on conscious awareness and its transformational impact on the healing process. For over 30 years, she has been empowering people to experience joy in each moment without burning out. The practical tools and skills she teaches have helped people all over the world improve every aspect of their lives, from their health and well-being to their relationships, their careers, their creativity, even the growth of their businesses. Suzanne joined me for an excellent conversation on her latest book Reclaiming Your Body: Healing from Trauma and Awakening to Your Body’s Wisdom, in which she provides the tools and guidance necessary to reconnect with our body’s inner guidance system of sensation, imagery, and inner knowing. “While the English language frequently refers to what our bodies know — 'gut feelings,' hearts 'reaching out' to others, etc. — many of us have learned to ignore, deny, or even mistrust our body’s inherent wisdom. Even worse, a lot of people don’t like their bodies very much at all. As a result, we often cut ourselves off from one of our greatest allies."
