The Inner Journey: Saving Your Soul to Save Us All w/ Dr. Erin Yu-Juin McMorrow #371

It's time we came back to Earth, and I can think of no one better to get us grounded than this week's guest: author, spiritual guide, and Earth advocate, Dr. Erin Yu-Juin McMorrow. I was highly charged after devouring Erin's book, Grounded, which explores the interconnectedness between the natural world and humanity. We can see nature’s history imprinted in the soil and how toxic expressions of masculinity (defined by Erin as patriarchy) rip through the natural Earth – which is an embodiment of the sacred feminine through Erin's lens. So how do we find roots when the soil is literally being ripped from under our feet? On the rational side of things, we can return to regenerative farming practices, start composting, and learn from our fungi friends. But things really get interesting when we dive into the spiritual, sacred potential in Earth and see how it relates to the divine feminine, and see how sex, soul, and soil are, in many ways, one and the same. 05:00 — The Return to Roots Working with soil, regenerative farming The role of fungi in the soil and why mushrooms are our allies Relating soil to feminine sexual energy Learning how to compost Regenerating earth and business 43:35 — Reframing Environmentalism What I learned after watching The Great Global Warming Swindle The creative life force of the universe and why we need to shift our relationship with Earth Getting caught up in environmentalism How colonization separated us from the land 01:04:18 — Plant Medicines to Reconnect with Nature The collective elevation of consciousness with medicine experiences The global renaissance happening right now 1:15:33 — The Way Out of Patriarchy The collective pain body The masculine expression of ego Conquering cultural marxism to come back to oneness The Goddess Archetype Immersing yourself in natural things 1:51:49 — Expansion Through Sexuality How an orgy pushed Erin to her edge and how she broke through Cultivating initiation skills Releasing shame around sexuality More about this episode.

Back in the day, I used to have to take about 50 ingredients to make an elixir or a smoothie. I had to mix them together, make a big mess, and it took up a bunch of space in the cabinet. But Cacao Bliss has changed the game. Now I have amazing ceremony-grade organic ingredients like raw cacao, turmeric, black pepper, MCT powder, cinnamon, monk fruit, coconut nectar, lacuma, mesquite, and Himalayan salt all in one.
