123: Beyond Surface Language with Mark England
Language is a powerful shaper of our experience. The depth of training and knowledge most of us have when it comes to words stops at basic grammar.

On the show and in my personal life, I’ve focused in a bit lately on this conversation of darkness and light, and even did a show (Entering The Darkness and Finding The Light) specifically on that topic.
