It can be discouraging, even heartbreaking, to hear of tragedies and violence happening in all corners of the world. Witnessing racism, corruption, environmental destruction and human rights abuses in the media — or first-hand — can leave you feeling overwhelmed and confused about what you can do to create real, lasting change.

And it’s easy to lose sight of the fact that there's also a parallel narrative emerging...

This parallel story is an exciting merging of spirituality, neuroscience and peacebuilding with innovative solutions expanding across the globe.

Through these efforts, a new path forward is being revealed... one that embraces the spiritual dimensions, as well as grounded, practical actions that can transform difficult situations locally and globally.

Now YOU have the opportunity to join this rising tide of change agents and deepen your activism through your spiritual practice — and deepen your spiritual practice through your activism! Plus, you can learn how neuroscience is helping peacebuilders and spiritual practitioners understand the mechanics behind true personal and social transformation.

Inspiring Positive Social Change, taking place July 11-September 5, will feature passionate and inspiring leaders in the important fields of spirituality, neuroscience, peacebuilding, compassion and peace education. They’ll provide insights and skills that can be applied to your daily life — in your family, friendships, business partnerships and service in the world.

Inspiring Positive Social Change shines a light on practical, effective and inspiring ways you can BE peace and promote change in your life.

Here’s a peek at what our brilliant speakers will be sharing with you:

	Andrew Harvey will offer powerful insights into Sacred Activism.
	Joanna Macy will talk about the Great Turning and how you can best participate in this epic transition to a life-sustaining planetary culture.
	Sharif Abdullah will speak about practical ways to create a society in line with our deepest spiritual values — a global society that includes all people and peoples.
	Melanie Greenberg will share insights from an innovative initiative called Rewiring the Brain for Peace.
	Rabbi Michael Lerner will shed light on Spiritual Activism — including key strategies in working for change under the current political administration
	Chief Phil Lane, Jr. will join Dena Merriam for a conversation about the inner dimensions of climate change — how our spiritual values impact the environment and our collective future.
	Audri Scott Williams will highlight ways to apply Indigenous wisdom to social healing and peacebuilding.
	James O’Dea will discuss Conscious Activism — where mysticism meets activism.

As you step forward and say “YES!” to this growing movement, you are fulfilling not only your calling, but your highest potential... embodying the soul of peace and peacebuilding.

They also share how this path — one of change for the greater good — is a profound spiritual journey, pushing the limits of our human potential and redefining what’s possible.

Do your little bit of good where you are;
it's those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.
— Desmond Tutu
