Ditching Fast-Food Spirituality w— Mimi Young
We talk about The concept of “wu” in Chinese culture and its likely implications for our concept of “woo” or “woo-woo.” We also get into some things that we’ve been observing with wellness culture, which is the problem with approaching spirituality and spiritual practices from a “fast-food” perspective. We discuss how to relate with grace and respect to practices that are not directly a part of our biological lineage and the braiding that’s inviting us to remember older ways of being in connection to the place where we are and the land we’re on.
Mimi is a Taiwanese Canadian, and a shamanic intuitive and founder of CEREMONIE. Mimi works with a blend of modalities including core shamanism, plant spirit healing, ancestral wisdom, dream work, chaos magick, and other Chinese esoterics and divination practices.
