Metaphoric wisdom is magic

March 27, 2019

Information overload and burnout are common problems for most of us. But when we spend time dwelling in the language of metaphor, we’re not stuffing data into our heads. We’re simply relying on the wisdom of metaphor to show us the way…by tapping into a deep source of innate ancient wisdom. Metaphoric images take us under the surface to a place that’s abundantly rich and nurturing.

For this of us with hectic lives, metaphoric wisdom is a beautiful elixir.

When we feel stuck, we don’t need to push or try harder, what we need to do is discover the metaphoric image that can heal us. While our minds often go “round and round” in circles and mentally struggle with dilemmas, metaphor provides innate direction, healing, and a path forward.
