9/10 Practices around Seeing with New Eyes, the third Stage of the Spiral "Coming Back to Life", Readings and Practices
-
- 도서
“Realize that for every ongoing war and religious outrage and environmental devastation and bogus Iraqi attack plan, there are a thousand counter-balancing acts of staggering generosity and humanity and art and beauty happening all over the world, right now, on a breathtaking scale, from flower box to cathedral."
— Mark Morford”
In this episode Joanna Tomkins will read some of the texts and exercises from the book Coming Back to Life that are used as practices during Work That Reconnects retreats, for the "Seeing with New Eyes" stage. They are based on the concept of Deep Time, which is one of the pillars of Joanna Macy's worldview.
"People of today relate to time in a way that is surely unique in history. The technologies and economic forces unleashed by the Industrial Growth Society radically alter our experience of time, subjecting us to frenetic speeds and severing our felt connection with past and future generations. Deep Time work has arisen for that express purpose: to refresh our spirits and inform our minds by experiencing our present lives within larger contexts of time." (Joanna Macy)
Please prepare a quiet space and make sure you are comfortable. You will need a notebook and pen.
Join us soon for our last episode, where we discuss Going Forth, the next stage in the Spiral.
Please note that The Work that Reconnects is usually based on collective and in physical presence workshops, and we invite you to connect to the page www.workthatreconnects.org to find out if there is one available to you.
