Upcoming Events

from Our Networks

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.

The 2nd Wednesday of Each Month

Experience meditating together for the well-being of people, planet, and participants - a monthly live meditation designed for activists, open to all levels.
Climate cafés focus on feelings; no feeling is too difficult or taboo to discuss. Participants are invited to share as much or as little as they are comfortable with. Our events are only available for individuals 16 years of age and older residing in Canada.

One-Year Memorial Gathering

We invite you to join us as we commemorate the one-year anniversary of the passing of Reverend Dr. Larry Ward, True Great Sound. Gathering in beloved community, we will remember, celebrate, and honor the continuing presence of our beloved ancestor, elder, friend, and teacher. There will be ceremony and ritual, as well as chanting, poetry, and storytelling. Speakers: Dr. Peggy Rowe Ward, Kaira Jewel Lingo, Sister Peace, Joe Reilly, Reggie Hubbard, Dr. Kamilah Majied and Reverend Genjo.
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.
