LinksI was inspired to list these because I have learned so much from links on websites. Most of these listings fall into multiple categories. Please know that for brevity sake I'm only listing each site once.Sustainability, Ecology, Cosmology www.zeri.org Gunter Pauli is the founder of the ZERI organization, a planet-wide organization introducing cutting-edge technology, innovation and thought in sustainability and education. The ZERI project at Las Gaviotas in Columbia is restoring a rain forest. ZERI is about doing more with less by design that utilizes the "kin-doms" of nature. zeri.us.org ZERI in the USA ecozoicstudies.org/thomasberry Thomas Berry is a seminal thinker and one of the first to articulate a vision of the human that puts the human in service to the Earth and the Universe instead of the other way around. Here you will find a great reservoir of information on "The Great Story" as well as his other writings. thegreatstory.org The fabulous site of Michael Dowd and Connie Barlow who have traveled North America telling "The Great Story." They bring you a great website for the learning about and celebrating "The Great Story of Cosmic Evolution." Michael's new book "Thank God for Evolution" is receiving great reviews. I heartily recommend it. brianswimme.org Brian is a cosmologist and teacher who advocates re-imagining the human presence on the planet in light of the discoveries modern science has brought to the exploration of the universe. Cosmology sheds new light on the questions of who we are and what is our role on the planet. dreamchange.org The planetary shape-shifting work of John Perkins, Lynn Roberts and other dream-changers, shares indigenous wisdom and how it can empower us all to create a sustainable planet. joannamacy.net Deep ecology, Buddhist teachings and systems theory are woven into a tapestry of spiritual activism by this wise woman. ratical.org/LifeWeb/ Elizabet Sahtouris, evolutionary biologist, gives insights into planetary awakening from a biological perspective. permaculture.org Permaculture holds many keys to a healthy sustainable planet. Much more than about how we grow our food. Consciousness & Spirituality JeanHouston.org Jean is a planetary visionary, skilled in facilitating awareness & awakening. atthewfox.org Matthew is at the forefront of redefining and redesigning education and spirituality for our times. andrewharvey.net Andrew is a mystic and author who is a proponent of "Sacred Activism." miriamswell.org Miriam's Well is a great center for consciousness expansion and community building. They offer workshops with great teachers. mellen-thomas.com Mellen-Thomas is one of the most studied persons who has experienced the near-death experience. This is one of my favorite websites! cnvc.org The Center for Nonviolent Communication is based on the work of Marshall Rosenberg. This work is a powerful instrument for peace: inner and outer, and the forging of social discourse that focused on resolving unmet needs rather than increasing conflict. onenessmovement.org This is the North American site for the Oneness movement. I find the Oneness blessing to be a very powerful source of divine infusion. onenessuniversity.org International center of the Oneness Blessing Movement eOmega.org I love Omega. I was on the staff of their wholistic studies program and gave astrological consultations in their Wellness Center from 1997 until 2006, when I started going to Santa Cruz in the summertime. Omega is an example of what joyous learning, spiritual intensives and arts exploration is all about. rowecenter.org Rowe is another gem. Smaller than Omega, it offers programs with cutting edge teachers on a beautiful campus. Great people, food and community. TheSmileRevolution.com Mindy has a great mission and radio show. Healing, Physical & Emotional Well-Being It's amazing that it is now against the law to declare that a method or something actually heals something. I've discovered many wonderful ways of regaining and maintaining health. Due to the corruption of the FDA, instead of protecting us, they are on a campaign to limit the choices we have in health care to the products and methodologies churned out by the drug companies and the AMA. As Michael Moore so clearly said in Sicko, as long as the bottom line is money and profits for the few at the expense of the many, we will not have a health system that supports our health. Therefore please know that I am passing on these recommendations based on my experience and that I am not a medical doctor. Regarding any health matters the law requires any one recommending something that pertains to health that you say and make clear that you should consult with your doctor regarding any medical matters, so I pass that recommendation on to you and will list the following sources for educational purposes only. What a long way we've come from the Native American use of the word medicine to include anything that enhances your well-being!
