Remembering

Our Interconnected Nature

Online Program

Have you ever fallen in love with some aspect of nature, or the Earth, as you have been healing?
— Rochelle Calvert, PhD

Remembering Our Interconnected Nature is a hybrid online interactive and experiential opportunity to be with community in exploring ways we experience separation to open into deep ways of knowing an embodied sense of interconnection.

Due to the constructive/deconstructive nature of our modern times, we typically experience ourselves as individual, separate from the whole. We are often also experiencing deep wounds/traumas that perpetuate this separation. In these times, it is essential that we look and understand how this way of viewing and living life is limiting, even harmful to our well-being and survival.

Bringing forth an embodied understanding that we are Earth made human is a valuable way to remember our dynamic web of interconnection with life as well as to cultivate resilience, belonging, and flourishing.

The program is guided by these questions:

  • What are ways we experience separation?

  • What are ways to develop, deeply understand and embody interconnection?

  • Why is interconnection a vital dimension to understanding how we can heal the pain and suffering of one another and the Earth?

Together we delve into the systemic ways we have experienced separation individually and collectively through unhealed trauma and explore the dynamic interdependence of humans and Mother Earth, framed within a larger conversation about worldviews, inner transformation, well-being and reparative ecological engagement.
