What is Embodied Spirituality? What is Somatic Shamanism? What is Neurodiversity?
Today we are #LIVEintheHIVE with author, teacher, and embodiment and spirituality orientated theologian Kay Louise Aldred for a compelling + educational conversation about spiritual needs, safe spaces, understanding the nervous system, embodied ways of knowing, and neurodiversity.
If you, like me, are somewhat new to the term neurodiversity, and its relationship to spirituality , this is the conversation for YOU!
Kay is a multi-passionate educator, prolific author, and leader committed to questioning and challenging the absence of the body and earth in education, mental health and religion/spirituality.
In this powerful conversation we touch on:
* Her book, Somatic Shamanism: Your Fleshy Knowing as The Tree of Life, and she unpacks her understanding of shamanism and its potential appropriation.
* Kays ’ spiritual journey from childhood, through anglican theology and having an academic (logos) understanding of spirituality, the discovery of liberation theology, into her embodied (eros) spirituality.
* Her work with the nervous system which moved her into her understanding of her neurotype.
* Spirituality > Nervous System > Neurodiversity
* Understanding neurodiversity in profiles of strengths rather than on a spectrum.
* What makes a safe space? What is an intentional space?
* Kay and I planted the seeds for a future conversation around her grandmother and the Theatre of The Church!
* All this and SO much more...
