12. The Mammalian Brain

In this episode, I hop into the significance of our neurological energy as derived from the fungal kingdom. We are animals first, and humans second. So, in order to get in touch with our human nature, we must become familiar with our animal nature, and thus our fungal nature. Our roots come from the fungal kingdom, which is where animals come from. Neurons and fungal behavior are very similar with regard to their electrical and molecular functionality. Mammals are fungal organisms, believe it or not. With that said, I take a moment to share Merlin and Cosmo Sheldrake’s piece that captures fungal mycelium in audible. Check it out on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KAnGAtSSgE and see for yourself. Very cool stuff! I also talk for a bit about my journey as a beekeeper, which has a lot to do with our mammalian nature to connect, proliferate and create. As humans, we have an intuition for the creative dimension of our being that guides our lives based on what we feel is right for us and our fellowships that create sustainable relationships in order to perpetuate our lives into the future. Our sustainability depends on this side of ourselves that can sense when we’ve gone astray. We are deeply connected to our environment and our ecosystem and we are very lucky to bear witness to it.
