Deep Dreaming Australia
'A Continent for Compassion' tells the story of a committed group of Australians who are bringing the Charter for Compassion to our wide-brown land. This vision crystallised following a study tour to the US by Dr Lynne Reeder and Terry Ayling where they met with leading members of the global Charter movement. Inspired by what they encountered, and now with other compassion leaders in the Australian Compassion Council (ACC), they are working to bring the ethics and evidence base of compassion into all aspects of Australian life. Of course a continent for compassion couldn’t be dreamed into being without the essential inclusion of Indigenous Australians and therefore in this webinar you will hear from Al Harris the Indigenous Advisor to the ACC. You will also learn about our compassionate cities, and the work occurring across Charter sectors such as health, social cohesion, early childhood education, environment, inter-faith, and compassion research.
Join us on June 8, 4:30-5:30 (Pacific time), 9 June (Aust 9:30 am EST). Register here.

How Trees, Women, and Tree People Can Save the Planet

This masterful work by internationally known author and speaker Jean Shinoda Bolen provides an insightful look into the fusion of ecological issues and global gender politics.
It grew out of Bolen’s experience mourning the loss of a Monterey pine that was cut down in her neighborhood. From their anatomy and physiology, to trees as archetypal and sacred symbols, Bolen expertly explores the dynamics of ecological activism spiritual activism and sacred feminism. And, she invites us to join the movement to save trees.
