The Core with Dale Allen
|
Episode 4
Gaia - Mother Earth My joyful offering in Episode 4 is to speak as Mother Earth, as the Goddess Gaia.
Gaia appears in Greek mythology. She created herself out of primordial chaos. It was from a Gaia that all earth life came to be, and all things return to her as well. This archetype is part of the collective unconscious, and appears in all original cultures around the earth. In these transformational times that we all share, connecting with nature can be very, very healing. I had the privilege to record a podcast for Yale University about the work of Stephen Kellert and Biophilia. Biophilia is the theory that people possess an inherent affinity for nature. Studies have revealed that this inclination continues to be a vital component of human health and well-being. Humans possess an innate tendency to seek connections with nature and other forms of life. And so, I invite you to use the power of your human imagination, and listen as the Goddess Gaia, as the Earth herself, speaks to you. |
"Dale, I listened to the Core episode about "The Selkie" a few days ago. Thank you for sharing your gift of story telling. It was just what my soul was needing. I look forward to listening to this week's episode!" Katie Maguire Chiaravolloti
Episode 3
The Selkie This episode tells the story of the Selkie to help you restore you to your wholeness, your SoulSelf. It is a version I wrote as part of my one-woman show, "In Our Right Minds." I have brought this story to life hundreds of times and yet every time I tell it, it’s as if I am experiencing it for the first time. The energy that is channeled by this piece is profound, powerful and healing every time.
I have found many versions of this story, mostly in folk story compilations and children’s books and in a wonderful film, The Secret of Roan Inish. Clarissa Pinkola Estes tells a version in her book, Women Who Run with the Wolves. I have brought this story to life hundreds of times and yet every time I tell it, it’s as if I am experiencing it for the first time. The energy that is channeled by this piece is profound, powerful and healing every time. May your sealskin be restored. May you exercise your creative, intuitive, heart-centered intelligence. May you speak and act with clarity – from your Core - in your home, your relationships, your work, your community, your faith, your school, your participation in government. May you come from your own authenticity, your own divine spark – and as we all do this – holding an unwavering vision of a world in balance – we will create a balanced world together. |
"Dale I was able to listen to your podcast. You have an incredible voice - calming, soothing, so perfect - what a great story, reflection, perspective! It almost read like a book - the imagery you created... And of course, I had the perfect day to listen: quiet, snow, peace in winter... perfect to reflect on new beginnings and the inevitable Spring. I want to figure out how to get all of your podcasts. I feel like a kid looking forward to a really good bedtime story!" Nancy Pierce Chapin
Episode 2
The Crone Cozy up for an audio journey to a winter landscape and a visit to a cave deep beneath the snows. There, an ancient yet ageless woman dwells. She is the Crone, or WiseWoman. In order to truly access your inner Power, Passion and Purpose, this archetype cannot be missed - she holds the seed to our creativity and renewal. She belongs to all of us: men, women – all genders. The archetypes are without boundary – like dreams and imagination – they don’t belong to solely one group or gender. The Crone has existed in us since the day we were born. She’s so powerful! She is a Keeper of Wisdom and reminds us that life is a series of "deaths." Life is a progression of disappearances... you build it, you structure it, you count on it, you think you’ve arrived somewhere - and then you realize the process starts again. But, there are certain threads that remain, threads that connect to our Inner Core, which is constant and timeless.
