Visioning Council members, Pam Montgomery and Jen Frey, as they delve into the depths of grief, sharing its beautiful and powerful role in our lives as well as Plant Allies who help us navigate through grief. In our dominant culture, grief is often considered a weakness and something to pass through quickly, resulting in numbing and other coping mechanisms to help us deny our true feelings.  If we want to live full, vibrant lives and particularly if we want to be co-creative partners with Nature, we are compelled to identify and heal our grief.  Fortunately, the plants are willing to guide and support us through this process.

We invite you to a special teleseminar that highlights the importance of connecting with Nature during this unprecedented time. As we do so, we feel calmer, grounded, and more resilient, which helps us be of service to our family and community with grace and patience. In fact, the deep truth is that many of us have been preparing, even training in a way, for this moment when our mother, the Earth, would begin to heal herself. We are seeing this healing around the world- birds singing, wildlife returning, waters running clear and clean amidst us quieting our lives and slowing down. Let’s use this quiet to deepen our connection with Mother Earth, listen to what she is sharing and allow that to inform our way of life.

A Forest Walk is more than a walk in nature; it's a sacred activism to rebuild a regenerative culture; the kind of culture Indigenous people knew; the kind of culture that perhaps our own ancestors knew. When nature becomes personal again, we will begin to heal ourselves and our relationship with nature. Then, our real work can begin. ~Linda Lombardo

David Haskell spent several years listening to the stories of trees in forests, cities, and coasts. At each, he explored the many interconnections that give us all life. These connections exist at levels, from cells, to ecology, to human culture. In the lives of trees, we see that living beings are made not from "selves" but from networked relationships. Trees therefore tells us both about the fascinating stories of particular places and about the processes that unite all of life on the planet.

Join O.N.E and Brooke Medicine Eagle as she shares about the wisdom of the Buffalo and the co-creative journey shared by the people, the land and the herd.

From Brooke
At our home ranch, we have a powerful spiritual and ecological practice, initiated by the buffalo themselves in the form of sacred hunts. It is a deep teaching about wholeness, holiness, Oneness, AND how practical and sensible it is to act in harmony with All Our Relations. And this is only one of the sacred teachings the herd has offered as we have watched them transform and revitalize the land and create new springs in their 20 years of returning here.
