Listen In - Turning Anxiety into Inspiration, & Tree Wisdom!

Posted on Nov 6th, 2008 by Jamie : Sophia's Trickster-Muse Jamie
Greetings, all!

The latest Audio InspiraLogue is fresh in. I invited Julie Charette Nunn, shamanic herbalist and founder of Crow's daughter, to join me in a juicy conversation. Julie and I mused about how we transform anxiety into inspiration, and the amazing guidance we can receive from Nature (including the wisdom of the trees - more on this in an upcoming InspiraLogue!).

Join us, and listen in...

Joyful Blessings,
Jamie

I am ecstatic!  What a wondrous interview!!  (And why's it a bit more real, to sit and listen to the conversation not simply read it in black and white? That whole extra dimension in vocal inflection, the timing of pauses, the obvious rises in enthusiasm and joy as a beloved point starts to develop.  It's not just about the depth of communication, but the musical interplay that occurs when two people are really talking and listening and sharing and expanding!  Guess on so many levels a good interview is like listening to a musical symphony.)

“Tree Wisdom.”  Think that mighta caught my attention??? 

I listened to this interview and my heart exploded!  YES!  Ancient wisdom traditions have been there all along … but we have ignored or forgotten or somehow chosen to turn away … and how much of the story of our innate human capacities might not have been passed along, simply because we weren't listening.

But this is so important now!  to hear the wisdom traditions, and feel the amazing resonance.  How better to live vibrantly in trying times, times of great change, than to come to the realization that we never intended to be static.  Energy wants to move, to flow.  But we need to stay gounded, come back into our own bodies (be in the HEART, not the head yesyesyes) in times of great and fast change.

WOW to be present, in a place of peace and love, in all the incredible energy that is happening right now.  And how better to do this, to be grounded, than to go out into the green, go out into nature. 

What was it I heard about trees in the interview? A great deal of information and wisdom is to be found by listening to beings other than humans.  And the wisdom of trees is very old (some are 700 years old, waiting for a long time, in the same spot).  And the wisdom of trees is “very gentle, very uplifting … a hopefulness for great transformation and healing.”

The ancient indigenous feminine wisdom traditions.  Simple traditions based on the knowing that all things are connected and alive.  Simple traditions that deeply consider what, today, we often turn away from considering: innate human capacities.

What beauty this interview breathed into my soul!!  How fresh and sweet it was.  I leave it filled with wonder and inspiration and joy!  wow…

Thank you, dearest sister Jamie!  Deep bows.  Peace and Oceans of Love!
