Mentoring
Thomas Berry believed that the Earth is entering an emerging era in which humans would recover our creative orientation to the living world and live in a mutually enhancing relationship with the Earth and her ecological communities.
In this emerging era, many questions arise:
What can I do?
What should I do?
How can I help?
What does the Earth need of me?
What if what the Earth needs of you is to occupy the singularly unique place in life that only you can occupy? What of it’s as simple as that? What if you couldn’t figure it out with your mind because you can only inhabit that place with your whole being? What if inhabiting that place requires your heart, your body, your poetry, your longing, your ancestry, your imagination? What if it requires all of you? And what if your role here is to fully inhabit all of these aspects of you and to then offer yourself to the world from that place?
The next obvious question that can come is… “how do I do that?”
But this is not a question of doing. This requires a different way of engaging. This requires watching for the next obvious step. This requires listening with your whole body. This requires acting from your integrity, speaking from your heart..
As humans, we will either learn to become a life-enhancing element of the greater Earth community… or we will not.
Our mentoring focuses on…
Growing & maturing into who you are meant to be in the world
Growing your relationship with Nature
Growing your relationship with the Sacred
Growing into solo hiking and solo wandering
… and many other areas that need mentoring support
