To live in harmony as nature, we change the way we think and relate, which requires a change in activity, and experiences of new organising possibilities. Starting with ceremony and ritual, we embrace generative listening through Community Listening and Re-membering (CLeaR), where we look for ways to strengthen healthy practices and to bring beneficial practices into being. These new patterns of activity can be thrown into being by an Organizing Lab or O’Lab, also known as the Organization Workshop, which draws on insights from Activity Theory and the Moraisean methodology. Here people learn new activity or strengthen existing practice by engaging mindfully in it. The O’Lab strengthens a collective enterprise culture, introduces a new repertoire of activity, and forges a common narrative and organising language amongst participants. We draw on expertise from different fields, and particularly ancient wisdom to enrich this collective community centered work.
Our programmes work to optimise possibilities for wellbeing and life flourishing within different biospheres and particularly in the buffer zones of compromised sacred spaces, caring for these sites and offering our presence. Programme streams vary according to the possibilities in different settings, and may embrace alternative learning, food & seed sovereignty, enterprise and livelihoods strengthening, traditional wisdom and culture, holistic health, spiritual wellbeing, land and nature care, and other regenerative creations.
We embrace the “Great Turning” and look to accelerate fringe innovative activity in the sustenance of life. All our programmes require a systemic approach, mindful, spirit centered inquiry and action, and methodologies for small and large group organising, aiming to bring people within vibrant localised economies in alignment as nature and the entire cosmos.
