In this episode of The Embodied Podcast, I’m joined by my dear friend and colleague, Tracy, for a profound conversation about the power of communal spaces in the healing process. Tracy shares her wisdom on the importance of creating retreat spaces where mystery is invited to lead, rather than the needs of the ego or the pressures of trauma. Tracy reflects on how retreats allow space for deeper, more mysterious aspects of the self to unfold.
In the context of our upcoming WILD retreat series, she highlights how working with fairy tales and somatic practices can align us with our nature as creatures of mystery.
Tracy also delves into the significance of community in healing, using the metaphor of fractals to explain how, though we are all unique, our human experiences often mirror each other on a deeper level. By embracing both commonality and difference in a retreat setting, we create a rich, interconnected space for transformation. She likens this to a mycelial network, where the group’s diversity strengthens and nourishes everyone involved.
For those who might feel apprehensive about communal healing, Tracy reassures listeners that everyone brings their own unique magic to the group. She emphasizes that healing is a reciprocal process, where giving and receiving happen in a safe, supportive space. Our WILD retreat offers a gradual introduction, starting online and eventually transitioning to an in-person gathering, providing the space to ease into this communal experience.
