We are not separate from Earth.
Through teachings, practice, and community, we engage a deeper sense of wellbeing and connection—with the world and within ourselves—dissolving divides between human and Animal, mind and body, science and spirit, self and Nature.
Our work invites a shift in how we live, relate, and belong because
healing begins when we remember that we never were apart.
Our programs offer an integrated path towards life in alignment with Nature.
Living One
Engagement
Living One opens horizons with innovative webinars, experiential courses, engagement in community, and individual mentored projects that move ideas into action.
Mariposa
Alignment
Mariposa offers mindfulness and meditation teachings and practices that bring us into alignment with the ethics of Earth, Plant and Animal kin.
Grace Village
Embodiment
Grace Village, our sanctuary sangha, embodies a model of transitional justice, integrating engagement and alignment with a community of Indigenous Wildlife and rescued Animals.

If you see the suffering of the world but haven’t changed your way of living yet,
it means that the awakening isn’t strong enough.
You haven’t really woken up.
