Connecting with Imagination for Personal Growth
Summary
In this episode, we explore the mythic imagination: how it appears in everyday life and how you can use it creatively to understand yourself, others, and change your life.In this episode we explore:
- Myths, stories, and archetypes and how they overlap.
- The everyday myths we tell ourselves that affect our behavior and the decisions we make?
- How beliefs become hardwired into children through stories.
- Tribal masks/personas/symbols that humans believe in through the collective unconscious.
- When we begin to understand that we are one being made up of different aspects we can consciously use these differences to give ourselves the power or qualities we want at any given time.
- Both Clay and Naomi suggest ways that you can start to use this information within Personal Development.
