We are delighted to welcome Melanie Ryan to the podcast! Melanie is a teacher, healer, author, and facilitator, and she joins us today to discuss the ways spiritual practice moves us from "fragmented to whole". In this deep, wise, informative conversation, Melanie discusses her journey from traditional psychotherapist to understanding that which is spiritual as "spirit ritual". Drawing from the Analytical Psychology framework of Carl Jung, as well as Buddhism and Shamanic practices, Melanie has offered her message to the world in the form of The Golden Shadow Method. The focus of this work invites us to explore spiritual practices as a way of returning home to ourselves and that which is sacred.
