Welcome to Looping the Labyrinth. My name is Awen, I’m a deadlifting druid, primal ritualist and sometimes druidry teacher in LA, and Looping the Labyrinth is my arena to explore the deeper themes I’m drawn to. On today’s episode, I had a perhaps leviathan-length conversation with infamous piercer Nathan Peterson of Nathan’s Tattoos & Piercings! Our conversation started with the theme of the initiatic quality of pain especially as it relates to body modification, and branches out into tangents on our philosophies regarding mindfulness in our digitally-oversaturated present day life (“experiencing life head-on”), our respective faiths, mystical interests, Nathan’s history with piercing and much more— you’ll have to listen for yourself.

Awen can be found on primaldruidry.com and as @primaldruidry basically everywhere else.
