Event description
The Mythic Imagination & the Healing Power of Story
A 2-Hour Immersive Class with Joshua Michael Schrei
For millennia, stories have been more than entertainment—they have been medicine. Across cultures, myth and imagination have been engaged as tools for healing, transformation, and connection to the unseen forces of the world. In this special two-hour class, we will explore the profound role of the mythic imagination and the ancient traditions that harnessed story as a means of personal and collective healing.
Join a live conversation between host Leah Lamb and and Joshua Michael Schrei, writer, teacher, and founder of The Emerald Podcast-- this session will journey into the living power of myth. Drawing from over 16 years of teaching global cosmologies and mythologies—with a focus on the Indian subcontinent—Joshua will explore how storytelling has long served as a bridge between worlds, shaping reality and restoring balance.
Through deep discussion and immersive storytelling, we will:
+ Discover the historical role of story as a healing force across traditions
+ Explore the mythic imagination as an essential tool for perceiving the world
+ Learn how to engage story as a living practice that transforms both teller and listener
This class is for seekers, storytellers, and anyone drawn to the intersection of myth, meaning, and embodied wisdom. Join us in rekindling the ancient power of story—one that is alive, breathing, and ready to awaken new ways of seeing.
