How do we train to take part in the Great Turning? Books, lectures and
debates are not enough by themselves. We must also learn to see in new
ways and experience for ourselves the powers that are essential to the
healing of our world.
The Work That Reconnects is a pioneering form of group work that began in the 1970s. It demonstrates our interconnectedness in the web of life and our authority to take action on its behalf. It has helped many thousands around the globe find insight, solidarity, and courage to act, despite rapidly worsening conditions. Based on systems theory, spiritual teachings, and deep ecology, its methods are described in Coming Back to Life, the book I wrote with Molly Young Brown.
