Islands of Coherence is a podcast for people who refuse to go numb.
The world is in freefall - politically, ecologically, spiritually - and most of us can feel it. But Nobel Prize-winning physicist Ilya Prigogine showed us something remarkable: when a system is in chaos, small pockets of coherence don’t just survive - they can shift the entire system toward a higher order.
This show is about building those pockets. Each episode draws from spiritual practice, somatic work, artmaking, ecology, and activism to explore a single question: how do we cultivate wholeness - in ourselves, in our communities - while everything around us fragments?

Joining us on the show this week is the visionary Susan Harper! Continuum teacher, heart-soul-counselor, creative instigator, and inspired teacher of perceptual and movement inquiry; Susan has an incredibly rich and thorough series of offerings that she's brought to thousands of people across the globe since 1975. In this episode we explore Continuum, a unique movement practice that invites us to connect with our fluid body to connect with our deeper oceanic creativity. From there we survey the anatomy of shame, the reciprocal nature of perception, and the importance of connecting to awe.
Susan offers online workshops which can be found over at continuummontage.com
