• Tai Chi and Circling with Peter Munthe-Kaas
    Oct 28 2024

    Peter Munthe-Kaas is a master of the Circling Europe tradition. He hops into the Container to discuss his blend of Circling, Tai Chi, and Daoism.


    🔗Find him online at: www.munthe-kaas.dk


    This ties into our ongoing investigation in the Dao and Circling. You can see more of that in Episode 38: The Tao Te Ching and Circling and Episode 40: Who Is the Master in the Tao Te Ching?

    And, of course, Patreon members get all the episodes of our series The Way That Can Be Told, which goes chapter-by-chapter through the Tao Te Ching, looking at it as a guide to circling.

    Sep 16 2024

    Martje Witzel comes back on the show to talk about deep connection. To each other and even to the earth itself.

    In this state of deep connection, we can expand our minds and discover the real meaning of things like "love" and "God."

  • Meet Each Other, Meet God with Martje Witzel
    Sep 9 2024

    Martje Witzel is a life coach and surrendered leadership facilitator. Sharing space with her, you can immediately feel the power of her presence and the commitment she has to the practice.

    And that's where we'll continue the conversation next week!

  • The Western Esoteric Tradition with Carolyn Lovewell
    Sep 2 2024

    For those of us who circle and practice surrendered leadership, we've all tasted the magic in what we do. I think that means we could learn a lot (and grow a lot) from seeing how people in the world of magic organize themselves and create heightened states of presence and oneness (a cosmic version of connection).

    To give us that perspective, Carolyn Lovewell comes back on the podcast. She helps us understand the importance of mystery schools and their place in the Western esoteric tradition.

    To learn more about her work, go to her website.

  • Existential Kink: The Best Form of Shadow Work with Carolyn Lovewell
    Aug 26 2024

    We're back on the third rung of the Container spiral!

    We discuss Existential K/nk with Carolyn Lovewell (formerly Carolyn Eliot). She guides us through her discovery and creation of the single best shadow work system available today.

    To learn more about her work, go to her website.

    It's Episode 42. As you may know, 42 is a powerful number in the Kabbalah. In this system, the 42-letter name of God is used to connect to the days of creation, the Sephirah with their corresponding planets, and more. Mystics can enter multi-level states of consciousness by repeating this name like a mantra.

    And so, it is the perfect episode to launch our new series in "The Beyond." We'll be using the Relational Arts to go into the furthest reaches of consciousness, past our everyday life and into the occluded spheres of being that call to us in dream, as darkness falls and sky country twinkles with ten thousand points of angelic light.

    It all starts here with Carolyn Lovewell, our High Priestess welcoming us past the veil into the mysteries of The Beyond.

    Make sure to reach out and connect at our Facebook group. There, we are discovering the ways that circling can help us spiritually awaken.
