This is the second in a 4-part series about healing grief. In this podcast, Shamanic practitioner Dory Cote answers questions about staying proactive, not negative, while healing grief.
Questions answered in this podcast:
1. I am an activist. I want to stand up for what I believe is right, like not killing whales or destroying the Rain Forest. How do I stand up for my beliefs at the same time I am trying to send love to everyone? [0:36]
2. It can feel like there is a lot of evil in the world. How can I stay positive about my life when people are being senselessly killed every day? [3:37]
3. Groups can accomplish more proactive change, sometimes, than individuals. However, group energy can shift and change. How can I know and sense the difference, and how best to pull out from a group whose intent changes, without making enemies of former colleagues? [6:13]
4. Passionate reactions can cloud emotions. What is the best way to monitor my own negativity? [8:55]
5. Non-violent communications practices believe that in order to heal a turbulent situation, all the voices must be heard, even those committing violence. It can be challenging to hold the position that every soul deserves listening to… How does this fit with Shamanic teachings? [11:14]
6. Is there a prayer or a mantra or a ritual that can help steady us in this path? [16:07]
