Kevin McKeag returns to the podcast; Julian and him discuss the need for a healthy positive vision of masculinity and what that could look like. They talk again about power and hierarchy and the difference between dominator hierarchies and growth hierarchies and how we cannot escape making value judgements about integral theory and stages of human development, meditation, what " ego " means and how to understand and work with our sense of self And then Kevin shares with us about Taoist sexual yoga practices and how they have helped him - and he shares some practical tips to start cultivating your own sexual energy and using this to power your own development, creativity and giving your gifts to the world.
