I'm interested in the acceleration of consciousness away from conflict and violence, and towards awareness, creative solutions, greater joy and happiness. Am looking at this in practical terms: what works for change in the heart of the individual, in intimate relationships- and from there extends into the community and the planet- especially tangible actions, and simple, teachable skills.
