Beth of Fresh Air – Episode 30: Sublimate With Micah Ellars
from King Hero's Journey with Beth Martens · host Beth Martens
Sublimate 💫To sublimate is to refine raw material into a higher expression.To take the friction, experiences, talents, and struggles of life and allow them to become substance for consciousness.This isn’t about superiority over others.It’s about becoming less mechanically run by programs and more connected to the essential inner being that supports real freedom.There is a spiritual worth to that process.A deepening.A remembering.In this episode of Beth of Fresh Air, I’m opening up some of the connections between the octaves in Gurdjieff’s tradition, the Fibonacci sequence I explored with Roy Wooten (and will do further with Micah and a special guest on this coming Monday!), and the living patterns that move through art, transformation, and self-remembering.With Special Guest: Micah EllarsMicah has a rare ability to bring multiple disciplines together into a living process.Filmmaking.Acting coaching.Self-remembering.Inner work.Something new forms through the sublimation of them — a living octave carrying creative and spiritual momentum.We’ll explore how growth in consciousness changes a person’s relationship to identity, pattern, and archetype itself.As someone develops greater freedom internally, they become less mechanically fixed inside archetypal grooves and more capable of movement, creativity, and real choice.What We’ll ExploreOctaves in Gurdjieff’s workFibonacci and living growth patternsSelf-remembering and archetypesCreative sublimation through the artsMechanical identity and conscious participationFreedom and evolving archetypal expressionAnd we’ll allow the conversation itself to become part of the process.This conversation also opens the door into a new workshop series Micah Ellars and I are creating together (stay tuned for details!): Self Remembering with ArchetypesThe End of the False Self Course: https://www.bethmartens.com/the-end-of-the-false-selfDiscover other deprogramming and archetype courses at www.bethmartens.comApply for a zero-cost, one-on-one chat about working together: https://www.bethmartens.com/awaken-your-journey-archetype-applicationFind out your King Hero Archetype in ten minutes: https://www.bethmartens.com/king-hero-archetype-quiz-sign-upApply to become a House of Free Will Member: https://www.bethmartens.com/house-of-free-will-applicationDo a starter online course: Deprogramming 101 or Find Your Sacred Purposehttps://www.bethmartens.com/deprogramming101https://www.bethmartens.com/find-your-sacred-purpose-online-course ***MORE FROM BETHSign up for a Hero's Journey Archetype ReadingOrder a copy of my book, ‘Journey: A Map of Archetypes to Find Lost Purpose in a Sea of Meaninglessness’Donate by PayPal if you’re inspiredIf we're just meeting...I’m Beth Martens—founder of the House of Free Will, pattern hunter, archetype reader, podcaster, author, coach trainer, and business coach.
