We at The Mind Body Ecology Institute are dedicated to helping empower the global community for a more socially, spiritually, and ecologically harmonious world. We believe that by understanding and transforming ourselves we can be agents of positive change.

We are struck by this moment in history. The annual celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. this year was preceded and followed by the passing into the ancestral of two other visionaries, wisdom teachers, and compassionate leaders: author, feminist, professor, and activist bell hooks, and Buddhist monk and socially-engaged mindfulness activist Thích Nhất Hạnh.
