Dose of Depth
Welcome to Dose of Depth. I’m your host, Deborah Lukovich, PhD, and I invite you into conversations that explore the field between us.
Together we’ll examine dreams, relationships, creativity, leadership, organizations, and the ordinary moments that quietly reshape our lives. Through stories, conversations, and depth psychology, we’ll ask not only why something happened, but why now and what is trying to emerge through our experience.
This podcast is for people who sense that life is always speaking through relationships, conflict, attraction, loss, joy, and the unexpected synchronicities that seem to appear at just the right time. We’re less interested in having the right answers than in cultivating the conditions where new understanding can emerge.
Some episodes may offer a profound insight. Others may make you laugh at the strange symbolism of your own life.
I hope that each conversation helps you become more psychologically sovereign, more available to your own unfolding, and more aware of what is ripening in the field between you, others, and the world.
So pull up a chair. Let’s explore what is trying to emerge.
Dr. Deborah

Chapter 10 - Bodily Sensations and Injuries - from my new book, Your Soul is Talking. Are You Listening?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In Chapter 10, I talk about another way your unconscious speaks to you – through bodily symptoms and injuries.
During one of my somatic depth psychology courses – soma means body – I was intrigued by an active imagination exercise offered in one of the textbooks. In the exercise, my imagination took me in an elevator down to my stomach, my womb. When the elevator door opened, I felt the warmth and humidity and saw the dark moist caverns like those in a volcano. As I walked and felt my way through the darkness, at my feet were slow moving rivers of lava with swirling colors of dark red, orange, yellow and brown.
My emotions included caution and curiosity, and when I rode the elevator back up to consciousness, my first thought was, “Wow, there’s a lot going on in there.”

Listen to find out what happened. Enjoy and share! Thanks for listening and having the courage to explore the deeper meaning in your own life.
