Description

I’m Ian Felton, a psychotherapist in Minneapolis, Minnesota and Daoist practitioner. Listen as I read the Daodejing in Chinese, craft a fresh translation, and discuss it with the aim of creating inner transformation for myself and the listeners. For those listeners who engaged with the original podcast, "Walking the Timeless Way," with David Wang, I hope you find the new format and approach rewarding. The episodes from that series have all been labeled as "Original Series."
