Regenerative Health, Regenerative Earth with Yan Golding

The urgent and complex global challenges we face will not be resolved from within the same systems that created them. Hundreds of millions of people and millions of groups are working on countless regenerative and compassionate solutions. Throughout this vast and diverse global movement there is a growing recognition that we already have the knowledge, skills, ideas, technologies and resources to effectively address all our escalating crises. Our primary challenge is to align and organize effectively for whole-system healing and transformation. With the deep wisdom within Codes for a Healthy Earth, citizens are uniting around a whole-system healing framework that effectively supports citizen-led self-organization at the local and global levels to realize our shared needs and aspirations for a healthy Earth.

A Deeper Kind of Revolution

A Deeper Kind of Revolution with Charles Eisenstein

The urgent and complex global challenges we face will not be resolved from within the same systems and consciousness that created them. Many of the proposed solutions to climate change rely on the same thinking that brought us to the crisis, and cannot move us forward. Charles Eisenstein suggests the ecological crisis is calling us to a deeper kind of revolution. Its strategy involves restoring what the modern worldview and its institutions have rendered nearly extinct: our felt understanding of the living intelligence and interconnectedness of all things.

Disaster’s Grief & Beauty

Grief and Beauty in the Wake of Disaster with Trebbe Johnson

When the places we love are devastated by human interaction, natural disaster or a combination of the two, it feels devastating and overwhelming. How do we cope? We can mourn what we’ve lost and say goodbye. We can donate money or call our congressional representatives, or we can ignore the damage entirely. However, we can also discover hope, and even beauty, in what remains. Author and Activist, Trebbe Johnson, suggests that the creation of art, ritual and even joy to honor these lost or “wounded” places is not just possible, but is in fact crucial to our collective healing.
