PS046 - Body Modification Sacred and Profane

Whether you have had your ears pierced, cut your hair, or had a facial tattoo, we have all modified our bodies in some way (or had them modified for us). In this week’s podcast, Lee Harrington takes us on a journey through intent, culture, choice and spirit as we look into why we do body modification and the power behind it. From body piercings to hair styles, genital modifications to brandings, breast implants to goth makeup, let’s examine how we approach these issues as sacred acts and markings as well as that which we do for the most profane of reasons.
