Meeting the Paradox of Inaction with Compassion
- June 28, 2026

Replacing the “Behavior Change” Playbook
- Renee Lertzman
For decades, climate and environmental advocates have tried to close the gap between what people know and what they do. Frustrated, our answer has been “more”: more information, more urgency, more compelling imagery. But what if the problem is our misunderstanding of the problem?

A Contemplative Circle of Nature & Word

This contemplative online circle explores the relationship between language, nature, and shared human experience. Facilitated by author, poet, and ecopsychologist Lorena Saavedra Smith, the group will engage poetry as a practice of mindful witnessing, listening to the ways Earth, body, and society inform one another. Sessions include a short meditation, a selected poem connected to a monthly theme, and sharing of original theme-inspired writings or reflections. No prior writing experience necessary.

A Year-Long Series, Monthly on Sundays
- June 28, 2026
- — December 20, 2026
- Natural Dharma Fellowship and Mindful Living Revolution
Online
Hosted by Lama Willa and Deborah Eden Tull, these gatherings invite us to experience Dharma not as fixed doctrine, but as a living, relational field—one that emerges spontaneously through authentic dialogue and shared presence. Guests for this series include Kazu Haga, Susie Harrington, Kritee Kanko, Adam Lobel, Thanissara, and Karen Waconda-Lewis, with additional guests to be announced. You only need to register once to access the full year of monthly Dharma Dialogues and you may join at any point during the series.
Sponsored by the BESS Family Foundation, Earth Awareness Community Retreats are intended to foster community among those whose work and interests are focused on the intersection of mindfulness/meditation and climate change. Retreats will be held in 2025 – 2027 at four geographically dispersed retreat centers. Attendance at the retreats is free, but other costs are participant responsibilities.
There is a way to be a human being
that causes all life to thrive.
