This lecture explores eco-somatic imagination as a doorway into the Anima Mundi—the Soul of the World. Drawing on Jung’s view of the psyche as alive, we’ll reimagine the body as part of the Earth: an organ of perception and participation that both listens and expresses. What if the Earth is a living, dreaming being, inviting us into relationship? We’ll consider dreams, images, and sensations as portals into the Earth’s psyche, revealing the natural world not as metaphor but as an animate participant in the unfolding of soul. Grounded in the Wild Yoga™ Way, this talk proposes that embodied imagination can restore our capacity for reverence and reciprocity. Eco-somatic imagination invites us to listen, respond, and participate with the Soul of the World in ways that rekindle intimacy with the more-than-human realm and catalyze personal and planetary transformation.
