PEACEMAKING
An essential component of The Tracking Project’s program is the art of peacemaking. Just as the true martial arts in their higher form lead to awareness and sensitivity rather than violence, the awareness induced by tracking, together with the Arts of Life, deep listening skills and simply being in nature, can lead to a profound inner peace. In this sense, nature itself is a peacemaker. For us, peace is the not the end of the process to heal the Earth—it is the beginning.
CALENDAR
NEW!!!!! For years, one of the most popular parts of The Tracking Project’s courses has been the daily dream circle. John Stokes, Director of the project, has often talked about offering a course on dreams and dreaming that would address the dream ecology he has encountered in this travels and work with traditional cultures and communities around the world. Part 1 of this workshop (Nov 10-12, 2017) draws specifically on John’s experiences in Australia and Hawai’I, while Part 2 (offered in the spring 2018) ties in dream cultures from North and South America.
