26. Honouring Your Ancestors + Finding Connection in Remembrance

<p>In this episode, I'm exploring the practice of connecting to and honouring our ancestors and loved ones who are no longer with us.</p> <p>In a free-flow, impromptu chat with you, I sat down and hit record to talk about:</p> <p><em>+ My relationship around connecting with ancestors, ancestral veneration, as well as honouring the people who have passed in my own life.</em></p> <p><em>+ The significance of ancestor veneration within ancient cultures and why this practice comes naturally to us as human beings.</em></p> <p><em>+ How we can ensure that our ancestors and loved ones can continue to 'be' in this world, that they're not just 'gone', through the practice of conscious remembrance.</em></p> <p><em>+ My own personal practices which have mostly developed intuitively.</em></p> <p><em>+ Why the concept of connecting to our ancestors/deceased family members and practices of ancestral veneration is so absent within our western culture.</em></p> <p>And more!</p> <p>This episode is entirely impromptu, I hit record and let the words and thoughts flow.</p> <p>The book I mention during the episode is "<a href="https://www.booktopia.com.au/witches-and-pagans-max-dashu/book/9780692740286.html"><strong>Witches and Pagans</strong></a>" by Max Dashu.</p> <p><br></p> <p><strong>I WOULD LOVE TO GATHER WITH YOU</strong></p> <p>Book your sacred Soul-led 1:1 Session with me before 1st May 2021 and receive 30% off!</p> <p>Just use the code 'WILD30' then select you day and time.</p> <p>Head to <a href="https://www.rachelhodgens.com/soul-led-session"><strong>www.rachelhodgens.com/soul-led-session</strong></a></p> <p><br></p> <p>Be sure to screenshot and share the episode on Instagram and tag me @rachel.hodgens</p> <p>You can find me over on&nbsp;<a href="https://www.instagram.com/rachel.hodgens/"><strong>Instagram</strong></a>&nbsp;if you'd like to connect with me further!</p> <p>Find out more about my work at&nbsp;<a href="https://www.rachelhodgens.com/"><strong>www.rachelhodgens.com</strong></a></p>
