Show Notes
Ever wonder what significance your dreams hold - or how the divine might speak through them?
Fr. Daniel Renaud is a spiritual director, religious priest, and dream worker, who loves integrating his Jungian dream work with his contemplative practice. He also trains other spiritual directors to offer dream work themselves. Today we’ll talk about what dreamwork is, how it can be integrated into your spiritual practice, and how dreams can be a tool for healing our broken society.
I’ve also brought along one of my own dreams from the last week, and will ask Fr. Daniel to offer a dream interpretation live! ------ ABOUT FR. DANIEL RENAUD Fr.

He is adjunct faculty at the Oblate School of Theology in San Antonio, Texas, and the host of a new TV show on called "Becoming Fully Human".

Have you ever been struck by someone’s depth of presence? Like when you meet a wise, holy person. The depth of their presence overwhelms us, floods our body with their peace. Have you ever wondered what's going on on a biological level when this happens? Or, wondered why it's so much easier to feel grounded when we meditate with others vs. on our own? Or maybe been curious about how life's traumas impact the contemplative life? Get ready, everyone - this is one of my FAVORITE intersections. 🤩🤩 Neuroscience and the contemplative life. Embodiment and spirituality. The mystical and the muscles, minerals, and membranes. In today’s episode I speak with Dr. Bonnie Badenoch, who specializes in precisely this intersection. Bonnie is an interpersonal neurobiologist *and* a contemplative! She has spent decades researching how that connection, and most importantly, presence, impacts our bodies. You might think of her as the Brene Brown of presence-- combining lots of heart with accessible research.
