In this conversation, Carey Davidson and Lorie Eve Dechar explore the transformative ideas of Gene Gebser, focusing on the evolution of human consciousness and the current mental collapse. They discuss the need for a new understanding of reality, the importance of inner healing, and the role of interconnectedness in navigating uncertainty. The dialogue emphasizes the significance of the five archetypes method as a framework for personal and collective growth in these challenging times.

She has worked for over three decades to integrate the principles and practice of Chinese medicine with Western archetypal psychology, alchemy and consciousness studies to create Alchemical Healing, a therapeutic modality specifically focused on addressing the psycho-spiritual and soul issues of our time. She is the author of Five Spirits: Alchemical Acupuncture for Psychological and Spiritual Healing, Kigo: Exploring the Spiritual Essence of Acupuncture Points Through the Changing Seasons, and in collaboration with her husband, Benjamin Fox, The Alchemy of Inner Work.

One next step:

Pause. Wait. Listen to the small, new voice that leads you away from outer blame to inner responsibility, away from addictive behavior toward self-care, away from compulsive acting out toward inner contemplation. Trust that these small but difficult inner shifts will begin to have an effect on the world around you!

Quote:

“We are all longing, whether we know it or not, for a more efficient and more spacious way of being human. Yet the path is not straightforward … the innovation, creativity, and excitement of the new is always accompanied by a tendency in some to cling to the inefficient but familiar past rather than take the risk of diving into an unknown future … Although we recognize that the challenges currently facing humanity on environmental, economic, and political levels may seem unsurmountable, we still believe that some level of healing is always possible and that it begins with a shift in consciousness, with inner work that leads to outer change.” - The Alchemy of Inner Work by Lorie Eve Dechar and Benjamin Fox
