Creative ideas and new visions have uplifted humanity through the hardest of times! Each one of us has the capacity to cultivate our visions for a loving, thriving, equitable world. Our inspirations can transform those in our intimate circles, our community circles and our ever-widening circles in ways that we would never have imagined are possible.

In the natural world, seeds are blown far and wide and delivered by birds and animals. New plants and trees grow in places never dreamed about. Bees pollinate flowers, trees and food crops, and serve as a conduit for future generations. Being bee-like, we can cross-pollinate each other, ensuring our visions bloom into the future.

How can you make internal space for new visions that align with the greater good? How can you cultivate nature allies and the energy needed to carry out those dreams?

Like the teasel pictured, we are living in a time of sharp bristles as well as blossoming flowers. We all are a crucial part of this horrible, yet beautifully transformative time.

How can we fully inhabit this moment and catalyze ourselves to go boldly beyond what we have done and dreamed in the past? (See our nature practice for ideas).

Now is the time to call in your courage, call in your heart, call in your community, and call in all of your resources. We need you. We need your unique gifts. Each of you has something unique to offer.

At the Earthbody Institute, we are following our compelling vision to go beyond our comfort level. We are learning about and implementing new structures that include a wider range of voices, highlighting BBIPOC voices.

*We are excited to announce our new intern for the Online Ecotherapy Certificate Program, Angelina Mendoza, who brings her Latinx and multicultural heritage.

*We are hoping to offer an Online Ecotherapy Certificate class in the spring that is exclusively for BBIPOC students, as an opportunity to welcome people that might not feel comfortable in our primarily white classes.

*We are happy to have Musenge Luchembe Hayslett teaching our October Online class, bringing her perspective from her African heritage and her seasoned experience of working with BBIPOC clients.

*In an effort to support the widest range of people participating in the United States election, we are hosting a fundraiser to support organizations that are getting out the vote in underserved areas, to encourage all people to have their voices heard.

*We are also actively consulting with organizations that have successfully re-organized themselves to offer a robust anti-oppression lens.

*We would love to hear your suggestions for enhancing our vision, including articles, videos or events you would like us to know about or share in future newsletters. Reply to [email protected].

This fall, we are thrilled to co-sponsor a transformational program with that can support your new visions and actions: Deep Belonging for the Great Turning. Ryan’s commitment to the other-than-human world and following his wild purpose has inspired and astounded me for years! (along with the potency of his poems). I hope you will join us to embrace the power of the collective initiation calling us, to compost old oppressive forms, expand into your wholeness, and step into your unique powers as gifts to the community.

Now is the time to expand beyond our past ways to be a powerful advocate for creating the new!

Sending soaring bald eagles and flying seeds,

Ariana and The Earthbody Institute
