Shrink Rap Radio #203 - The Feminine Face of God with Sherry Ruth Anderson

A cool podcast from Shrink Rap Radio looking at the anima element of spirit, or what some call God/dess. This isn't just a New Age thing (although I get a little of that) - she is a student of A.H. Almaas, whose Diamond Approach is one of the best psycho-spiritual models I have seen.
