Viewing our insane world through the eyes of a Seer - PETER NELSON - Part One

This is the first posted episode of my series of interviews with psychologist, social scientist, and long-standing Seer, Dr Peter Nelson.

The purpose of this work is to provide: Transformative support and resources to people bravely facing human-caused collapse of Earth and Human Systems.

Our world is going through what many are calling an intensification, or a quickening. This is a nearly universal experience of immense disruption and disconnection at every level of the human experience. Just trying to make sense of these times, much less creating "a more beautiful world our hearts know is possible," seems an impossible task. There is talk of somehow creating new ways of being, relating, governing, communicating. But there is precious little in our collective experience that can help us even cope with the chaos, much less generate truly new possibilities.

My sense is that Dr Peter Nelson would be the first to admit that he doesn't have a clue either, about how to solve any of these questions. What he does have a remarkable access to is an ability to view and articulate the immense power we have within our own attention. He is able to tour us through some of the basics of how to discern, cultivate, and consciously deploy our attention in ways that are far more potent than the intent-less, malicious, daily, tsunami-assault on our attention that we now call normal.

This conversation yields some remarkable sharing of a very experienced Seer. Dr Nelson shares some easy exercises that anyone can do to self-regulate more effectively, and possibly start expanding their ability to "See."

This topic of Seeing the non-ordinary is just one of many potentially transformative tracks of study and experience available in the classes, support groups, trainings, and coaching available in Living Resilience.

Our warm thanks again to Dr Peter Nelson for his generous sharing in this interview.

I had just finished reading Dr.Peter Nelson s biography the way of the Seer and looking for a u tube reference about his I/v on German Radio when I encountered this podcast. I am thrilled but must say that acquaintance with his very unusual life and his extended description of what he does have an added dimension. I warmly recommend the book . Got it on Kindle. Thankyou for podcast .

when i was younger, the older people of my generation, did not make sense many times ... now it seems to all fall in place.
