Branches of Mentoring

Branches of Mentoring

In this 2 CD set on mentoring, mythologist and author Michael Meade explores the roots of and application of mentoring in a creative way. The character named Mentor first appears in The Odyssey where he acts as guide and teacher for a young prince facing cultural devastation. Thus, the beginning of mentoring involves healing culture as well as guiding youth. Creative Mentoring can assist nature to heal and culture to renew while helping youth encounter their own genius and unique spirit for life. Using the surprising Story of the Half-Boy, Meade shows how culture disintegrates into a "half-village" that rejects its youth and forgets its elders. The path to making the village whole again requires the recovery of the dreams of youth as well as the visions of the elders. For, mentoring naturally engages youth in the work of culture, but also becomes the basis for converting the "olders" into elders. Mentoring evokes the genius in a person, develops gifts, and helps heal both personal and cultural wounds. This presentation directly benefits mentors, teachers, parents, artists, social activists, environmentalists, all and any who work with youth, value elders and seek a renewed sense of community.
