44 Matters of the Heart with Don St John

In this episode of Path of the Awakened Heart, Jennifer and Don St John discuss: How Don's church combines teachings of Jesus with ayahuasca use, emphasizing love and heart-opening experiences. What Don attributes his successful marriage to and ability to love more easily. A personal story of how Don experienced a transformation in love during a difficult time in his marriage. Relationships as opportunities for learning, healing, and spiritual growth. The spiritual path to practice speaking from the heart and awaken your capacity for love. Connecting with the heart as a center of wisdom and making wiser choices from a place of openness.   Learn more about Don St John: As a psychotherapist, teacher, author, and Mestre (teacher in a Christian-Ayahuasca church), Don has been immersed in the psychological, somatic, relational, and spiritual worlds for more than fifty years. As a child he endured years of intense physical and verbal abuse in his Italian-American Catholic home. Don entered adulthood in a physically hyper-tense body, emotionally frozen, relationally retarded, and spiritually void. This healing adventure of fifty plus years has resulted in a fulfilling marriage (38 years) to his life partner, the enjoyment of being in his body, trust in his own abilities and instincts, the trust given to him by others to guide their journeys, a love for life, and wonderment at a higher power.
