A rich and soulful exploration of the season of spring, and our deepening connection to self, others, and the natural world. Marina invites us to slow down, listen more deeply, and reconnect with the cycles that shape our inner and outer lives.

In this episode, Marina:

  • Explores the relationship between our social self and wider ecological self.
  • Looks at how communication goes beyond words and into our bodies, our subtle cues, the looks we might get and our imagination.
  • Dives deeper into the Spring and our own inner cycles of renewal – with reference to the Tree Calendar and Hawthorn!
  • Wonders about the power of the imaginal sense and its link to healing.
  • Invites listeners to treat their inner child with the same love, care and hope we’d give a newborn baby!
  • Touches on how slowing down can allow deeper forms of listening, noticing, and sensing to emerge.
  • Celebrates the joy, silliness, and direct experience that come with spring and a well-resourced self.
