Expanding States of Consciousness - In Conversation with Jennifer Patterson
It honestly feels pretty weird to be posting about anything other than "the situation," but also... oh myyyyyy! I don’t know about you but I really need to give myself some other things to think about!
It’s been a perfect diversion to spend time with this conversation I had two weeks ago with Jennifer Patterson aka @corpusritual about expanding states of consciousness. Jennye is a breathworker (amazing and powerful work, I had my second session with her yesterday and it really helped me move through some intense anxiety and into a much sweeter, clearer space) and she’s also an herbalist and author. Her book, The Power of Breathwork: Simple Practices to Promote Wellbeing was just recently published.
In our convo we explore a variety of different ways to access expansive states - through breathwork, embodiment, astrology, plant medicine and other hallucinogens. Both of us really enjoy expanding our consciousness out into the ethers, and both of us are super interested in how to work with expanded states ethically, and towards personal and collective healing.
We start off the episode facilitating simple expansion practices through breath and somatic awareness for each other (and you).
I hope you find some respite, support, inspiration and enjoyment in this episode. Take some time out and journey a bit with us into some other dimensions!
Love to everyone out there. Whether I’ll know your or not in this life, you’re very much in my heart ❤️
