Healing Ancestral Wounds: The Power of Embodied Practice and Deep Intimacy

How do we heal the wounds of our ancestors while nurturing the connections in our closest relationships? This episode of "Slay Your Dragons with Compassion" promises to answer these profound questions through the insights of Ya'Acov Darling Khan, a contemporary shaman and co-founder of the School of Movement Medicine. Ya'Acov takes us on an evocative journey from his formative experiences to his practice of Movement Medicine, an embodied approach born out of personal and ancestral transformation. Highlighting a striking shamanic encounter where he relived the trauma of a Holocaust survivor, Yaakov brings to light the concept of intergenerational trauma and how it can be transformed into creative contributions to the world.
In a heartfelt reflection, I share the enduring journey with my wife, Susannah, shaped by mutual trust and the practice of "embodied listening." Over 38 years, we have faced trials, temptations, and near separations, but our commitment to honesty and genuine communication has allowed our relationship to flourish. This episode also explores the sacred connection of intimacy, emphasizing that true sexual and emotional bonds can only deepen through unwavering honesty and integrity. Join us as we uncover the ongoing effort needed to cultivate a spiritually nourishing and intimate partnership, enriching our lives beyond the ordinary.
