Awakening to Unity in a Fragmented World
Experiencing ourselves as an expression of life rather than a separate entity changes everything. Yet after the initial buzz wears off or just becomes normal, we become aware of the debris scattered in our inner landscape, our relationships and across the planet. We realise that the spiritual reality of unity is not enough to dispel […]
The Path of Vertical Leadership
‘The Path of Vertical Leadership’ is first of all, a path. From where and to where I can hardly say, because this path leads out of the darkness, into the light of This Moment, and then back into the darkness. Our thinking minds are filled with ideas of who we are, who others are & […]
Nature’s we-space, home of the ecocentric self.
Join EarthMind in exploring how an interpersonal relationship with nature can be cultivated, and support our individual and collective healing and growth. UR and LR focus on technology, political and socioeconomic solutions fail to move the hearts of people into action.

Liberation through Creativity: an Integral View
What does F.M. Dostoevsky’s famous expression “Beauty will save the world” mean and why is it said that “beauty is in the eyes of the beholder”? Why art in all its forms and genres is the best means of “soul-wandering” created by mankind. What are the evolutionary advantages of art as a way of self-improvement […]
Forgiveness Made Easy
Forgiveness is often misunderstood, sorely underused, yet is an essential integral life practice. Scientific studies confirm the multiple stress-reducing, wellbeing-enhancing benefits of forgiveness, but equally fascinating is our resistance to it and our reluctance to practice it. In this workshop, we’ll explore what forgiveness is, and arguably more importantly, what it isn’t. What are the […]
Embodying the Descending Path in Adult Development
The idea that development is a “transcend and include” process is a partial-truth that results in significant collective shadow in the integral diaspora—specifically it supports an ascending bias and subtle arrogance in narratives about adult development. We will see how human development, i.e. all learning, necessarily involves a transcend and *exclude* process. That is, all […]
Bodywork – Who am I within the ‘Global’?
In the beginning you realized you are not your body – although it needs to be healthy. Then it becomes clear, you are not your personality, either. Still, it needs to be healthy, too. Then what are you? If I take off all my clothes and roles, what’s left? Who is experiencing exactly and what […]
Authentic Living
Through meditations, live music, silent connecting, sense-based exercises & intimate dialogues, James will guide you with gentle precision towards realising who you really, REALLY are, on the deepest level. From that ‘place’ of clarity and openness, you will begin to acknowledge the unconscious fear-based patterns, self-beliefs and physical clenches that block you from expressing fully, […]
Relating with Intimacy, Maturity, and Wholeness
What if tensions in relationship are invitations into a greater wholeness and degree of intimacy with self, other, and life itself, rather than a problem to be resolved? “We may have this conflict because we need to recover our truer complexity.” – Robert Kegan In this workshop, we’ll practice in real time with relational tensions. […]
