Visiting Scholar Craig Chalquist and Host Susan Grelock Yusem
Dreaming the Soul of the Earth: Re-imagination as a Remedy for Our Times
How can we heal ourselves and the earth? How can we engage with the soul of a place? At Commonweal, we have always been grounded by our home place in the southern end of Point Reyes National Seashore. Though our work takes place around the world these days, we are always rooted here with the lineage of hundreds of healing retreats held on our land at our Retreat Center. Join TNS Host Susan Grelock Yusem in conversation with Visiting Scholar Craig Chalquist about how we can approach land with curiosity and how we can work with our imagination to re-envision our relationship with the land all around us.
