Global sunsets: the kosmos from my floor
My world has become both small and expansive. It’s contracted to a room with a view of the kosmos. Yet the paradox is it does not feel small.
There is this time: enwoombed
There is this time of the day.
And a particular time of the year
When the animals have been fed
and they are lying in hairy heaps…
Sunlight: and clouds
Seeing in and between the clouds
About this content
Our world is changing. Our thinking patterns are shifting. To answer our pressing emergencies and, fortuitously, engaging in this brings an aliveness like nothing else.
We’re a worldwide civilisation now and can consciously engage in creating thriving, just, sustainable futures for everyone. Yet, sometimes, this seems like a very lonely path…
We hope this site helps us all accelerate positive shifts. Amplification, re-storying and sharing awe…

Without harm and without fear;

As a young queen in bloom.

Standstill: our 12 day solstice
Please come along on this walk, a virtual walk along four paths, the physical, then collective systems, feelings and shared cultures.
And then there’s a fifth path, the path of the solstice, a standstill, it has been this way for all of our lifetimes and for millennia. A gift of our times, this year, is we are closer to these supportive memories.

Water: our first mother

Journey to the end of the universe: Laugavegur
From Skogar by foot: along a mind-boggling series of waterfalls, between glaciers, over volcanoes, across braided glacier melt rivers and through into sulfurous lunar Landmannalaugar.

Make haste – slowly, powerfully, minimally
“Hasten slowly” said Augustus. Oh, this is hard. To imagine what can be created, to hold back, to act; to engage means delving into both despair and hope. That’s where we’re challenged to see the powerful in what we do which is always minimal and micro. Feeling adequate in the face of manifest inadequacy. Weaving together the pieces that hasten, slowly and steadily, benevolution.
