Humans and Earth Chara Armon

After giving presentations on the dangers of climate change, Leah Rampy became convinced that something was missing from the conversations. With experience as a teacher, professor, corporate and nonprofit executive, and leadership consultant, she began a decades-long journey to understand what lies beneath our unwillingness to change our interactions with the natural world. Her growing commitment to re-weaving soul and Earth has been informed by leading  pilgrimages and retreats, extensive reading and research, her contemplative practice, and the wisdom of the living world. She is the author of the new book, Earth and Soul: Reconnecting Amid Climate Chaos. 
 
Listen to hear Leah’s insights on how:


Presenting people with facts about climate change usually isn’t enough to shift behavior.Welcoming people into relationality and kinship works much better.Dealing with your overwhelm and discerning what you can contribute will bring you ease.Nature models interdependent sharing of resources, showing us how to think not in terms of scarcity and competition, but abundance and mutual benefit.

In our conversation, Osprey shares:
 
When systems are crumbling, as they are now, we must decide what we want to create instead. We’re in a process of composting systems of oppression and co-creating with the web of life the world that we want to live in.Why it’s crucial to listen to women and Indigenous and black and brown communities if we want to lift everyone up and support the web of life.Why “we need community as we tend to the world.”How to be aware of your ancestral connection to land.How to engage in solution-building so you feel less overwhelmed.

What does it mean to be part of the democracy of frequency?
We all get to choose, in any moment, what frequency we are holding: rage or despair, joy or peace; fear or irritation, love or inspiration, discontent or gratitude. As we can learn from wise voices such as recent Nobel Peace Prize laureate Nargess Mohammadi, or others such as Nelson Mandela, Elie Wiesel, and Immaculee Ilibagiza, even when we are imprisoned in dire circumstances, we have a choice about what our internal energetic and emotional state is, and what we are then able to offer to the world. 
Tune in to hear how:
Choosing our energetic state may be our highest contribution to healing our planet and harmonizing the human-Earth relationship. This is because life on  Earth operates as a democracy of interconnected lives, or a grand symbiotic system in which countless lives are intertwined, continually influencing one another via their frequency, decisions, and actions.Each of us gets to choose whether we are emitting muddy or dim light, or bright, vibrant, light that brings greater beauty and regenerative creativity to the world.You can curate your frequency and contributions through a 4-step process.This can be easy at times, and an uphill climb at others, yet it's not spiritual bypassing. I offer examples.The democracy of frequency and the options it offers you are likely going to be make or break in what happens here on Earth. Those who believe there’s still plenty of hope for humanity and the Earth are the ones who are opening pathway after pathway for us to live in harmony with one another and the Earth. Thanks for listening!

Whether you believe our world is healing or floundering toward disaster depends on which evidence you notice. 

In this episode, hear me discuss the views of the climate experts I recently heard advocating for perspectives of hopelessness.

This episode helps you consider whether you want to wilt or stand tall in the face of all that’s occurring in our world. Tune in to hear the two options, then explore suggestions of how you can make the choice you feel is wisest and most helpful.
You'll then hear why I think it's crucial right now to distinguish between 20th c. sustainability viewpoints that are now outmoded and  21st. c. regenerative viewpoints that are deeper, more inclusive, and have the potential to transform life on this planet into tremendous flourishing.
