[Joan Stevens]

Hello friends, I just got this email about a special event this Sunday.  I attended a workshop the Pachamama Alliance put on at Bioneers this year.  It is powerful, graceful, and has tremendous transformative potential. If you can make it you will be extremely glad you did!

If the attachment doesn't come through I pasted the text on the bottom of the email.

Where on Earth are we going?
And what can we do about it?

These are two of the questions that lie at the heart of the Awakening the Dreamer, Changing the Dream Symposium. The Symposium explores the link between three of humanity’s most critical concerns: environmental sustainability, social justice and spiritual fulfillment.  Using video clips from some of the world’s most respected thinkers, along with inspiring short films, leading edge information and dynamic group interactions, the Symposium allows participants to gain a new insight into the very nature of our time and the opportunity we have to shape and impact the direction of our world with our everyday choices and actions. 

The aim of the Symposium is not merely to learn more about the world, but to grapple and come to grips with the very assumptions that underlie the way we ourselves see the world and our place in it, and with what each of us can do — both individually and cooperatively — to move the world in this new direction.

All attendees to this symposium will be invited to attend FREE workshops on: creating drought-resistant gardens, installing solar-powered water heaters, learning to bicycle around the neighborhood, disaster/emergency preparedness, joining a Save Our Planet book club and other hands-on actions to take to enhance our lives and save our earth.

If you are ready to be disturbed, inspired and moved to action, if you are ready to be introduced to a thriving community of like-hearted, deeply committed cohorts who are actively engaged in awakening from and changing the dream of our modern industrial culture, we invite you to come to the next Symposium.
