Holiday Heaven: 5 destinations

Leave a Comment / Mindfunda Miscellaneous, Spirifunda, SPIRITUALITY / susanne van doorn / 23 August 2016

n this blog, I share my top 5 magical holiday destinations that have deeply influenced my understanding of sacred places and mythology. From the sacred lake at Karnak in Egypt, where I felt honored to witness a site once reserved for high priests, to the awe-inspiring Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, where Gaudí’s vision intertwines nature and spirituality, these experiences have shaped my connection to the world. I also recount my time in Prague, enjoying the stunning view of seven bridges over the Vitava River, and the hidden, mystical Basilica Cistern in Istanbul, where I encountered ancient rituals. Finally, Land’s End in Cornwall offers breathtaking views and timeless beauty. These trips have enriched my understanding of mythology and sacred spaces, which I explore in more depth in Mindfunda’s online course, Mythology, designed to help you explore the mythological themes in your life and dreams.

Shaman – Magic: The Goddess and the Shaman book review

Leave a Comment / Mindfunda courses, Online courses / susanne van doorn / 22 May 2016

In The Goddess and The Shaman, J.A. Kent offers a deeply personal account of her journey into the spiritual realm of the Elphame, exploring her transformation through Out of Body Experiences and shamanic rituals. This book blends ancient shamanic practices with modern ecopsychology, shedding light on the goddess revival and the sacred feminine energy in a predominantly male-oriented society. While it doesn’t serve as a practical workbook on connecting with your inner goddess, it offers invaluable insights into shamanism, rituals, and how dreams act as a doorway to spiritual realms. A compelling read for those interested in shamanism, paganism, and feminine spirituality.
