Still a lonely vision
We live in a world full of possibilities: different beliefs, lovers, cultures, and skills are at our disposal. Trying to balance between them can leave us fragmented and without a clear sense of direction. I believe that, in order to find our way, we need shared spaces where we can discover what is truly relevant by bridging the gap between personal purpose and collective meaning.
Currently, I work as an experiential educator, and my dream is to combine my love of teaching embodied ways of learning; mindful and playful movement practices, as well as different crafts, with a mythological dimension. I see myths not as fiction, but as maps that help us orient our personal lives within a larger, collective story.
My vision is to found a residency, perhaps called the “Center for (Trans)personal Myth Living”, where people can reconnect with holistic ways of experiencing themselves, their environment, their peers, and, of course, the thread that weaves all of these together: our stories.
To make this dream more tangible, my pilgrimage also serves as a search for allies who feel a similar calling, as well as for places that might be suitable for this purpose.
Please feel free to contact me if you are interested in similar projects or if you know of existing places that resonate with this vision.

Why we need spaces in which we can work with myth to help us to regain a sense of agency as active participants in the unfolding of the cosmos.
