Join us as we sit
Join us as we sit down with Tom McKeown, who shares his deeply moving and enlightening spiritual story. Tom takes us through his challenging childhood marked by trauma and abuse, his escape into the Navy, and the subsequent years of harmful behaviors and substance dependency. His first encounter with methamphetamine offered a fleeting sense of confidence, but it also led to a years-long battle with addiction.
In a pivotal moment, Tom returned home to Oklahoma, beginning his recovery from drug addiction. Despite this progress, he continued to struggle with chaotic patterns of behavior, finding it challenging to break free from the addiction to chaos itself. Tom discusses how peaceful moments often felt uncomfortable and shares his spiritual awakening that began with a simple realization during meditation.
Tom’s path to peace involved personalized spiritual practices, including meditation, sweat lodges, Shamanic drumming, and firewalks. He discovered that meditation does not need to be forced or structured. Even moments like sitting on a porch swing and observing nature can be meditative. A significant turning point for Tom was when he received a drum that became central to his spiritual practice.
Throughout his recovery, Tom was guided by spiritual mentors who encouraged him to honor whatever felt right. His mentor, Steve, played a crucial role in helping him find various spiritual practices that enriched his life.
In this episode, Tom emphasizes the importance of personalizing one’s spiritual journey and advises against rigid adherence to prescribed methods or belief systems. We discuss the common struggle of discerning between one's mind and spiritual guidance.
Tom’s story is one of overcoming trauma, addiction, and chaos through a personalized spiritual journey that embraces individuality, mindfulness, and continual growth. Tune in to learn how Tom’s experiences and insights can inspire and guide you on your own path to a serene and fulfilling life.
