After the plandemic hit, and I had some time on lockdown to reflect on what was really going on, I started asking a deeper question. Beyond the supposed boogeyman virus, what was the underlying psychological operation? And then I saw it in technicolour. The Child-Rebel Loop. An archetypal trap that had people swinging between two extremes. On one side were those standing obediently on stickers, sucking their thumbs, and doing as they were told. On the other were those of us who refused to comply and raged against the machine. Of course, the rage feels better. At least you’re standing up for something! But rage is expensive. And it doesn’t last. Sooner or later, you find yourself exhausted, back in that familiar “give no fucks” place. Not because you changed your mind. Not because you suddenly believed the BS. But because you had no juice left. And that’s the trap. The Child retreats. The Rebel rises up. The Rebel burns out. The Child retreats again. Round and round we go, losing precious energy that could be going toward our actual purpose. And the powers that ought not be are perfectly happy to have us stuck in either one. So how do we recognize this loop, stop feeding it, and discover what happens when the Child and Rebel begin working together consciously? That’s exactly what filmmaker, acting coach, and inner work expert Micah Ellars and I will be exploring in our FREE live event: THE CHILD-REBEL LOOP An Introduction to Self Remembering with Archetypes Tuesday, October 27 at 7 PM CDT We’ll be using teaching, acting, and live scene work to bring this fascinating pattern to life. Put up your hand 🙋‍♀️ in the comments and I’ll send you the details! We’d love to have you join us.

Sorry if you love Halloween, but if your taste for the truth is greater than your taste for these seasonal festivities, this one will be an eye-opener! 👻 This week on Beth of Fresh Air #46 — Hallowed Be, Marisa Love and I are diving into the spooky side of death season, Halloween, cannibalism in folk and fairy tales, myths, and the strange fascination humans have with fear. Why are we encouraged to celebrate horror, death and terror as entertainment? Who benefits from keeping people fascinated with fear, and what does it do to our consciousness, attention and ability to stay focussed on our own goals? We'll also explore the natural closing of the year's cycle, seasonal changes in the body, and the provocative idea that being entertained by someone else's fear and suffering is itself a form of cannibalism. We're going down some deep and spooky rabbit holes with this one! 🐇💀 BoFA #46 — Hallowed Be with Marisa Love Friday, October 9 @ 2 PM CDT Live on YouTube & Rumble ❤️ Find the live links here: https://kingheros.bethmartens.com/blog/124543-beth-of-fresh-air-episode-46-hallowed-be-marisa-love

How did your life grow and evolve into where you are right now? This week on Beth of Fresh Air, I’m sitting down with Micah Ellars for Originate—a look back at the experiences, interests, skills, choices and unexpected turns that eventually converged into the work he’s doing today. Micah went from writing and directing films, acting, and coaching actors to discovering that acting mechanics and scene work could become incredibly powerful tools for people doing the work of remembering themselves. We’ll trace that evolution and get into some fascinating territory along the way: mechanical and conscious acting, why someone who doesn’t care about being a “good actor” can sometimes be a better one, repetition as the mother of skill, extreme self-consciousness, the False Personalities acting through the moving and instinctive centre, and how archetypes give us a way to see the architecture underneath it all. We’ll also talk about what Micah and I discovered in our first Self Remembering With Archetypes series, why we’re doing it again this October, and make a new announcement around the King archetype and real agency. 👑 Where did you begin? What shaped you? And looking back, can you see how the seemingly unrelated pieces of your life were quietly leading somewhere? Let’s Originate. ❤️ BoFA #45 — Originate with Micah Ellars Friday, October 2 @ 1 PM CDT Live on YouTube & Rumble https://kingheros.bethmartens.com/blog/124132-beth-of-fresh-air-episode-45-originate-micah-ellars

What was hard gets easier with practice. But if ease is the goal you will get in a trap of not growing and putting yourself through the discomfort of growing. So yes enjoy the ease when it arrives and take it as a sign to take on something that doesn’t feel easy.

King Hero Interview, Part 2 with Bernhard Guenther! What can relationship reveal about you that you could never discover alone? This Thursday I'm going deep with Bernhard Guenther for Part 2 of our King Hero Interview—into Gurdjieff's Fourth Way, self-remembering in ordinary life, conscious relationships, and the growth of essence vs. improvement of personality. We'll also explore what causes inner development to accelerate or stagnate, and whether the genuine development of individuals has implications for our collective evolution.

And since both Micah and Dagmar have professional backgrounds in film, writing, and acting, we'll be looking at how some of this was constructed too. Bring your theories!!

Following the ADHD thread on Beth of Fresh Air today. What if focus isn’t something you either have or you don’t? What if it’s something you have to earn? Like muscle and strength, our capacity for attention grows when we actually use it. This week on Beth of Fresh Air, I'm hosting the fabulous Lisa Marie Redl for a conversation called Focus. Lisa Marie was diagnosed with ADHD, and we're going to talk about what that diagnosis has meant in her life, what she's done that's actually helped, and poke some holes in the way we think about ADHD itself. We live in conditions that fracture attention all day long. We'll get into medication, psychiatry, modern life, motherhood, four young children 😅, and what it actually takes to develop our capacity for attention. Join us for BoFA Episode 43: Focus with Lisa Marie Redl. See you there! ❤️
