THE MISSING PIECE TO SPIRITUAL AWAKENING NO ONE TALKS ABOUT
#428: THE MISSING PIECE TO SPIRITUAL AWAKENING NO ONE TALKS ABOUT
Today, I’m joined by Jonathan Prendergast, a psychotherapist and spiritual teacher whose journey bridges psychology and mysticism. Jonathan’s new book, A Guide to Embodied Spirituality: Your Deepest Ground, reveals how to anchor divine awareness in your body, heal lifelong conditioning, and reclaim self-trust. We dive into his 50-year journey—from early mystical experiences to studying with Jean Klein—and why the ‘ground’ of our being is the foundation of true freedom. If you’re ready to move beyond spiritual bypassing and embody your essence, hit play.
