Wide-ranging chat with Charlie Awbery about spiritual methods, views, paths, and their relationship with therapy and everyday life.
A wide-ranging chat with my friend, teacher, and co-founder of Evolving Ground, Charlie Awbery. We reflect on our 'first awakening' experiences, renunciative practice, and the impact these experiences had on our lives and relationships. Then, we explore practices and results from different spiritual vehicles, life-affirming practices and views, and the illusion and danger of perfection. We wrap things up by talking about the goals of therapy and spiritual practice and how they impact each other in helpful and unhelpful ways.
