Come join us at our next Transition Sebastopol Movie Night at the French Garden Restaurant!
About the Movie:
Colin Beavan decides to completely eliminate his personal impact on the environment for the next year.
It means eating vegetarian, buying only local food, and turning off the refrigerator. It also means no elevators, no television, no cars, busses, or airplanes, no toxic cleaning products, no electricity, no material consumption, and no garbage.
No problem – at least for Colin – but he and his family live in Manhattan. So when his espresso-guzzling, retail-worshipping wife Michelle and their two-year-old daughter are dragged into the fray, the No Impact Project has an unforeseen impact of its own.
Laura Gabbert and Justin Schein's film provides an intriguing inside look into the experiment that became a national fascination and media sensation, while examining the familial strains and strengthened bonds that result from Colin and Michelle’s struggle with their radical lifestyle change.
Transition Sebastopol Heart & Soul group invites you to a special evening of Joanna Macy's "The Work that Reconnects."
The Truth Mandala
Community ritual for supporting the transformation of grief into compassion, fear into love and separation into celebration! with Kari Stettler and Stefanie Schulte
Truth-telling is like oxygen: It enlivens us. Without it we grow confused and numb. It is also a homecoming, bringing us back to powerful connection and basic authority - Joanna Macy
Emotions can be a trap, and they can be potent energy for new creation!
For all Sebastsouls, willing to connect in silence, contemplation, and stillness.
Every Thursday

Meditation is a resource for inner strength and resilience to enable us to respond wisely to challenges in our lives. This non-sectarian, unguided, collective meditation will draw on the insights and inspiration from various spiritual traditions to support personal meditation practice.

We will dress in green and brown; freel free to bring gardening gear, a bike, baskets, branches of blossoms and flowers.
Great screening, this time with a theme of "What is Transition?" We first saw briefly the challenges we face, then saw ways people are adapating, in rural, suburban and urban areas. We had a lively discussino afterwards, as always.
