Cultivating Resilience

Last week I was at an inspiring meeting in the Santa Cruz Mountains.  A dozen of us gathered from different parts of the US to continue an exploration of common ground.  There's a confluence happening.  Especially over the last decade people have been working with different words to explore the same questions: How do we create healthy communities?  Communities where happiness is pursued, not  consumption.  Communities where people live with the graceful bounty of this planet rather than…

Enjoyed your webinar so very much on Disaster as a springboard for transformation - of thriving resilient communities. Comment of the communities in Japan was very striking " We have been released from the future we did not want. Maybe now we can do something differently."
