Cultivating Peaceful Economies with Taj James and Konda Mason

Online
Is there a spiritual practice that can disrupt the global war economy? And if so -- are we doing it yet? Together we'll explore how we might leverage our resources -- individually and as dharma communities -- to interrupt economies of extraction, violence and domination, and to build a more liberated future.

A Climate Scientist's Case for Hope and Healing in a Divided World

Joined by world-renowned atmospheric scientist, professor, and author of Saving Us: A Climate Scientist's Case for Hope and Healing in a Divided World, Dr. Katharine Hayhoe, this event presents an intimate conversation and panel discussion on the importance of climate communication and bridging gaps between communities.

An Eco-Dharma Gathering with Adam Lobel

This is a retreat for meditators new and old, activists, artists, farmers, scientists, healers, and leaders to recharge and share best practices. Guided by seasoned teachers that bridge contemplative and engaged methods, we join deep silent practice with community processes, attuning to the mosses, forests, and living Earth community as our primary guide.

A Mindful Earth Gathering

This month, we turn toward the practice of enoughness; how to remember it, how to feel it, and how to live from it in a world that insists we are never quite enough. We live in a culture shaped by extraction. Our time, labour, attention, and even our healing journeys are often caught in a loop of more. But the Earth and the dharma remind us that life is made not only of effort but of ease…of doing and being.

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.
