This first episode serves as an introduction to thinking about the Mystery, or at least one way of thinking of it, as all of that which is unknown to us. Reckoning with the unknown is a task that is integral to living well, and one that foils us time and again. We get stuck often due to our hunt for security, which we can end up closing us off to our lives, new experiences, and the inevitability of change. I explore this stuckness both as it occurs in individuals somatically and psychologically, and also as it occurs in modern Western culture.
