Ep 35 Metavision a Soul Calling ~ Christina Nielsen

Today we welcome a very special guest to the show. Christina Nielson is the founder and director of Metavision Institute, a vibrant community for holistic education where we undertook our psychotherapy training (and where the idea for this podcast first began to take shape). 

The Metavision Institute has grown out of the need to heal the effects of living in a fragmented world. The Metavision ethos is to see the universe as sacred, with laws that govern and connect everything. To see the human being through the lens of eco-spirituality, soul and body awareness and as a part of a sacred universe helps to heal despair, depression, isolation and alienation. 

Christina has led an extraordinary life and in today’s episode we explore how following her soul’s calling led her to weave her training and practice in Social Work, Chinese Medicine, Anthroposophy and Process Oriented Psychology into a holistic model of counselling and psychotherapy as taught at Metavision today. Through her journey, we’ll explore the deep mysteries of Life and discuss how we can all learn to listen to and follow our own soul’s calling.

We chat about:
