The Rest of the Adventure: Base Camps, Fallow Land, and Riptides

Send us Fan MailReturning to the hero’s journey with a new understanding of the power of resting…this episode is an ode to the space between the steps: the waiting, the acclimating, the replenishing, and the power of letting go. With a renewed understanding of how time allows us to heal, slowing down and resting is an overlooked part of the wheel of the mono-myth of the hero’s journey. This is part of a series of episodes exploring, with fresh eyes, the hero’s journey on the healing path. Based on the good energy and wisdom of Joseph Campbell, the author of The Power of Myth. Bonus moment: Interrupted by two kittens near the halfway point of this episode, this may have been content for a blooper reel. It is instead welcomed as an opportunity to evoke the spiritual message of the domestic Cat as the expert species on the topic of resting.  Watch or listen to Hilary's TEDx talk now
