The Intentional Clinician: Psychology, Philosophy, and Therapy
Health & Fitness:Mental Health
Paul Krauss MA LPC had the privilege of speaking with Mark Nepo during the time of "Shelter in Place" in April 2020, thanks to the technology of ZOOM.
Mark Nepo shares a number of powerful stories, anecdotes, and metaphors that aim straight for the heart and assist in breaking us open. Mark discusses his story of suffering through a near-death experience of beating cancer in a way that can inspire us all to awaken to our soul's purpose. Mark relates the wisdom of all the great spiritual traditions in a beautiful, clear, and life-affirming way that appeals to the universal nature of the human experience. During this hour discussion, Paul was constantly amazed at the way that Mark effortlessly related moving stories and quotes without any notes or script. Mark Nepo is a humble and true teacher of the human experience--and this episode will appeal to people from all walks of life.
