Some Things Learned About Becoming & Belonging

One, really good people showing up. I love the willingness to commit to simple process, expecting depth. B&B is a series of monthly online offerings (with a bit of scheming and dreaming now for in-person retreat).

Two, I love the sparring that some are offering. Chris Jepson is one (thx Chris). And I love the companioning. And the good questions. Yesterday Chris asked me about the series (from his perspective of his participating) — what’s your why (your deeper why, your compelling can’t not why)?

  • To cultivate, support, and remember kindness, consciousness, flow.
  • To create infrastructure for human consciousness (borrowing that one from Sadghuru).
  • To evolve how I, and we, think and be, to restore more of the intuitive and associative ways (needed generally, and, lights me and others up).

You know how you sometimes have to do a thing to know what the thing is, to let it teach you. B&B is this. Becoming & Belonging.

Jump in. I intend these offerings to contribute to all of the why above. And to grow delightful camaraderie. They are meant to be a buffet of choices. New tastes. Familiar ones two. They are meant to nourish. Our beings. Our bellies. To change how we go about all of the other stuff in life.

Gifts of Circle - Question Cardsasd
Gifts of Circle is 30 short essays divided into 4 sections: 1) Circle's Bigger Purpose, 2) Circle's Practice, 3) Circle's First Requirements, and 4) Circle's Possibility for Men. From the Introduction: "Circle is what I turn to in the most comprehensive stories I know -- the stories of human beings trying to be kind and aware together, trying to make a difference in varied causes for which we need to go well together. Circle is also what I turn to in the most immediate needs that live right in front of me and in front of most of us -- sharing dreams and difficulties, exploring conflicts and coherences. Circle is what I turn to. Circle is what turns us to each other."

Question Cards is an accompanying tool to Gifts of Circle. Each card (34) offers a quote from the corresponding chapter in the book, followed by sample questions to grow your Circle hosting skills and to create connection, courage, and compassionate action among groups you host in Circle.

In My Nature
is a collection of 10 poems. From A Note of Beginning: "This collection of poems arises from the many conversations I've been having about nature. Nature as guide. Nature as wild. Nature as organized. I remain a human being that so appreciates a curious nature in people. That so appreciates questions that pick fruit from inner being, that gather insights and intuitions to a basket, and then brings the to table to be enjoyed and shared over the next week."

Most Mornings is a collection of 37 poems. I loved writing them. From the introduction: "This collection of poems comes from some of my sense-making that so often happens in the morning, nurtured by overnight sleep. The poems sample practices. They sample learnings. They sample insights and discoveries. They sample dilemmas and concerns."
