Utopiat Inspiration

Michael Meade, the teller and healer

by Archetype Themes Collaborator 05 Oct 2016 0 Comments

Last week Jasmine attended a 3 day retreat deep in a forest outside of Seattle, held by the great story teller and healer Michael Meade.

Michael’s work, alongside great poets and teachers such as Robert Bly, has been instrumental in incorporating ancient mythology, indigenous wisdom and soulful poetry into western spiritual teaching. And this teaching has been pivotal in forming the Utopiat vision.

The workshop brought together 95 people from all over the world, where each of us went through deep purging and healing as well as initiations into our respective “hero’s journey”.

This work is real and poignant. There were ancient tales, soul music, indigenous chanting, sacred ceremonies and poetry reading from some of the greatest masters such as Rumi, Hafiz, Rilke. Yeats, and Whitman. We were all given the opportunity to go deeper into the dark corners of our soul to find the thread of our destiny. And when we do, we will pull it back to the center of the world, so we can piece back together a world that is whole and complete.

This is the essence of Michael’s latest work “the Genius Myth”. In it, Michael presents the ideal that each of us is born with a unique genius. While modern society does not encourage this self actualization process, rather it promotes conformity and obedience, it is the Utopiat vision that there is magic and true power when each of us is courageous enough to find the thread of our destiny and together we can weave back a world that is beautiful and brilliant.

It is teachers like Robert Bly, Michael Meade and countless others whose teaching fuels our journey in realizing the Utopiat vision. We are grateful for their wisdom, for their relentless passion in healing the world.

May we all find our inner genius.Let us heal ourselves and one another. Because #love + #humanity

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. Why do we use it? It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
