Oct. 6, 2022. Our partners at Evolute Institute who offer psychedelic leadership experience retreat programs just started publishing a great new 8-part series on Inner Work. The first article just came out and explores the question “What does ‘deep inner work’ actually mean”? They emphasise that numerous schools of thought, ranging from millennia-old philosophies to modern academic approaches like developmental psychology and evolutionary biology, have made invaluable contributions over time to the understanding and fostering of human growth and development. In their article they synthesize the best insights from these wisdom traditions, scientific theories and practices…

Sep 23, 2021. How can we create healthier workplaces & foster resilience in ourselves and others? There is a lot of confusion around the root cause(s) of disease (dis-ease), suffering, lack of resilience. Modern medicine is fabulous in treating the symptoms, but we need to address the root cause. The core insight of the last decade of research into the causes of suffering / symptoms / trauma is that it comes through our neuro-biology

This includes the many deaths that we can suffer daily, especially at times of life transition….
