I welcome you to a new podcast series on the Marion Method, a set of maps, models, practices, and processes that support me and others to get free from what I call Disconnected Domination Culture (DDC) conditioning through psychospiritual re-parenting and re-culturing, including the wider cultural and historical context and the contrast between true soul nature and conditioning.
I share why I’m recording at home with dogs and birds as part of including my environment and “Messages from Life,” and I invite you to listen to your yeses and noes to listening.
I talk about pivotal callings from childhood and adolescence, my desire to understand human beings, and my path through psychology, a PhD on the mother-infant relationship, reading The Continuum Concept, Psychosynthesis Psychotherapy training, and later influences including The Field Project, Nonviolent Communication, and Aware Parenting.
I explain how the Marion Method emerged to help adults meet their own needs, get free from self-judgment and self-coercion, and reconnect with Love, Will, and Consciousness, and I preview future episodes on my learning lineage.
