The Ancestral Hot Seat
Listen now
Description
Mel takes us on a journey through the imagination and the realm of the ancestors, sharing a visualization tool for connecting to the big, fun resource that is your kindreds on the other side of the veil. Beginners and skeptics welcome! This is not about talking to dead people in a mediumship kind of way, but more like tippy-tapping on the back screen door of the ~beyond~ and recognizing that we really aren’t ever alone. We have a team of guides that want to play, and we aren’t expected to slog through life all by our lonesome. It’s really just a matter of what we’re paying attention to… We alsoooo talk about why you might feel shame, indifference, or avoidance altogether in connecting to the ancestors. Let's get into it!    Book 1:1 Creative Guidance time with Melissa Free Resources — Check out Attention Reset - my free digital art zine on reviving your road-weary attention Stay Connected — Follow Melissa’s Instagram for podcast updates Join Melissa’s weeklyish newsletter for creative musings and studio news Big thanks to Ben Coleman for composing our theme music, and Gavin Bernard for vocals
