What does it mean to truly return to your wild essence? In this captivating episode of Higher Density Living, Jason Rigby welcomes back Mary Reynolds Thompson, visionary author of The Way of the Wild Soul Woman. Diving into Chapter 8, they explore how ancient Earth archetypes—Desert, Forest, Ocean, Mountain, and Grassland Woman—can be activated in our daily lives through sacred altars and symbolic rituals.

 

Mary shares powerful insights on emotional clarity, seasonal living, and the transformative power of anger when aligned with purpose. With tender vulnerability, she recounts her own shadow work and how over-identifying with Mountain Woman’s "do-it-all" energy led to a health reckoning. Listeners are invited to explore their sacred longings, craft earth-based rituals, and restore inner equilibrium. This is not just about nature; it’s about reclaiming your place in it.
