Decolonizing the Psyche

VIDEO PODCAST BY PEGI EYERS


Decolonization starts off as an individual practice, but it is important to quickly move forward in solidarity with our communities and/or chosen kinship groups. Hopefully these discussions will lead to a fuller inventory of unlearning, and to new thinking, gestures and actions that reflect our responsibilities to equity, social justice & Earth Community. 
VIDEO PODCAST BY PEGI EYERS ~ JULY 11, 2020

Slide Bar to View Speaker
​Decolonizing the Psyche is a video podcast by Pegi Eyers on the patterns in thinking and behavior that we have inherited from western society (primarily capitalism), and how to shift from western mind to eco-mind.

Due to sound issues in the recording, sections of the talk are reproduced here:

#2 Reject the impact of commercialism on your identity formation. From the capitalist paradigm we have internalized the key principle that wealth and fame equals worth, but this is an illusion resulting from the absence of true connection and the sacred in our lives.
#3 Reject the impact of commercialism on your spiritual life.  Any society that needs to constantly revise or re-create a spiritual practice, or 'pay to pray,' has blended their priories into a strange new world.
Embrace the Sacred.  As a result of materialism, we have lost the ability to realize the world through a spiritual lens, and this disconnect means we are constantly seeking to understand the meaning of life over and over again.
