Circling The Earth: Creation Stories with Beatrice Bowles

MP3 Download

When we enter the mythic dimensions we begin to see great patterns in our own lives. This supports us in being able to make choices beyond our habitual patterns and beliefs. "If you have a myth working in your life (everyone does) and if you can see it, you can actually add to it. Also you can change it; you can banish certain things which have inhibited you," says Bowles. She goes on to explain how myths connect us "to the incredible system of intelligence, wisdom and law that we inhabit." You will also hear five creation stories from various cultures and hear storyteller Bowles talk about how these stories are relevant to our lives.
