45. Your Humanity is a Prism Not a Prison

Welcome to Everything Speaks if You Listen with Jen CobbleWorks where we befriend our humanity and the Sacred through story, soul questions, and every day life. In this week's episode, I return after almost a 6 week break to explore a spiritual pain point: the idea that the body and the soul are separated and at war with each other. I share some details with my long journey with Hashimoto's and personal spiritual path and notice how I spent many years trying to diminish, dismiss, and tame my body so that it couldn't cause "problems" for me and I could be "good". I trace this theology/philosophy back to Pluto's concept of the Forms where he posits that the body is a prison for the soul and that the soul is hindered, even tainted by the possible corruption the body can evoke. I also look at how this shows up in some of my Christian roots and how the my Hashimoto's helped me deconstruct from this pattern of oppressing the body to elevate or protect the soul. Instead, I explore the sense of union and gateway I experience through my body now, its sacred presence and invitation even through illness, conflicting emotions, etc. and talk about my early days with Celtic Spirituality and Ignatian Spirituality helped me stop waging a war between body and soul. This is a tender, gentle, kind of slowly paced podcast filled with deep personal soul stories, body stories, and inner reflections. I offer it in hope that it helps you frame your own relationship between your humanity and your soul. I'm Jen Cobble Willhoite, a contemplative storyteller, spiritual tool designer, and life-long soul seeker. My path is formed and framed by questions more than answers. I'm more comfortable wondering and wandering about things spiritual than I am in ideology, religion, or dogma. My soul language and connection with Spirit is primarily grounded in Celtic Spirituality, science, nature, seasonal cycles, myth, folklore, and stories of all kinds. I do have roots in progressive Christianity that I sometimes speak from. My tap root, though, is ordinary life. I believe enlightenment is rhythmic, unfolding, and found in our everyday experiences and selves. I also offer tools and courses on my modern interpretation of the examen: a daily ritual of looking back, looking within, and looking ahead to cultivate a rapport with your inner wisdom and the Sacred as you understand it. Every week, I share an episode from my own spiritual explorations, offering invitations for you to explore these themes on your own. Thanks for journeying with me!

44. Following Fear, Befriending Your Feral Self

Welcome to Everything Speaks if You Listen with Jen CobbleWorks where we befriend our humanity and the Sacred through story, soul questions, and every day life. In this week's episode, I open up about some of my journey with chronic illness and a new invitation I'm receiving about how to engage with it. I explore the concept of becoming a friend to oneself by looking at the ancient storytelling concept of following your fear--something that sounds very different from following your heart, but is actually a deep expression of that same thing. I also explore what it means to become friends with an aspect of yourself that is frightening, intimidating, or just not wanted at all by listening to the wisdom of feral animals...cats in particular. If there's something you're struggling to come to terms with in your life, or something you feel like you simply must improve on or eliminate, but the very effort of that is draining your love and inner capacity to show up for yourself and the world, I believe you'll find some resonance here (or at least some invitational questions to travel with). I'm Jen Cobble Willhoite, a contemplative storyteller, spiritual tool designer, and life-long soul seeker. My path is formed and framed by questions more than answers. I'm more comfortable wondering and wandering about things spiritual than I am in ideology, religion, or dogma.

43. A Practice That Runs After Us with Love: A Real Time Examen

Welcome to Everything Speaks if You Listen with Jen CobbleWorks where we befriend our humanity and the Sacred through story, soul questions, and every day life. In this week's episode, I share a real-time example of my own inner listening and reflection practice. So often, I think these practices feel stodgy or dogmatic or ideological, like we have to do them the "right" way or else. In my experience, that's just old traditions and my fear and wounding talking. In every day life doing this practice, the examen truly arrives as a friend with unconditional support and acceptance. This practice feels alive to me, like it has its own energy and spirit to it. When I say it bounded out the door after me when I was out for a walk and really worn down by heavy emotions, concerns, and worries, I mean it. The practice felt like a mystical wind, a spiritual friend that hustled after me when I stumbled/stormed out the door, came alongside me, and gently started to ask me questions to help me process and cope. The practice always feels this loving to me, but I sometimes forget that when we are in relationship with Spirit and with our practices, we can receive them as much as we can go to them. It's not just about sitting down and committing to a practice. It's also about being willing to let the practice find you, come to you, and then open up to its invitations when it does. We don't listen within and reflect to connect to ourselves and Spirit because it makes us "good". We do it because it helps us cope with our inner and outer worlds. We do it because it's a friendship, something that shows up for us as we show up for it. An ongoing spiritual practice is truly a friend in this way. And I'm sharing this real life experience of it in case it helps you notice how Love, how Spirit, how the Divine comes alongside you, how your own practices come to you when they know you need supportive love. I'm Jen Cobble Willhoite, a contemplative storyteller, spiritual tool designer, and life-long soul seeker. My path is formed and framed by questions more than answers. I'm more comfortable wondering and wandering about things spiritual than I am in ideology, religion, or dogma.
