either ignorance, greed and intolerance will bring us to a near or total collapse,
or we’ll somehow bring about a better world.
So focussing on that second option, how can we make that happen?
What can we do, as individuals and as a group, that goes beyond discussion?
At our evening at the Integral Cafe, we’d like to present and enact a microcosm of that process with all attendees to mine the collective intelligence of those present. Let’s come up with options and practical solutions for the future. Let’s share them and commit to realizing them in the world.

Birthing a New We - An Evening with Thomas Hübl
We are all familiar with moments when we really say "Yes", when life suddenly begins to flow and we are pure vibrancy. In a presence that is lived we can engage more deeply in the moment, its dynamics and our interaction with the world.
What tools can we be used to tap into a "new We" and what might organizational and community forms look like? What do presence, transparency, compassion, integral spirituality mean on the next level to come? How do we live and work if we radically make Awakening the core? And what does it mean for our communities and the collective?
This special evening includes a selection of tools of Thomas’ work: Meditation, communication, the reading and understanding of fields of consciousness, toning, exercises in presence, training in intuition and inspiration. These are helpful on an awakening path in order to access levels of consciousness, gain insight into the functioning of collective fields, to guide others in their processes and to see from different points of view.
Currently a "new We" emerges more and more on the evolutionary surface of life. We start to experience a new awakening that takes us beyond usual forms of individual experience: field thinking, transparent communication, recognizing experiential spaces inside people, naturally extended perception abilities, elevated levels of synchronization and transcendence - these are just a few signs of a new era.
As a foundation, Thomas Hübl will present four pillars that are crucial to his work: The integration of unintegrated parts, the connection to the future potential of life, transcendence into timeless ever-present consciousness and being active in the market place of daily life.
Then, Thomas - working extensively with both collective emergence and collective shadow work - will reveal how radical presence allows us to see what we don't see. He reveals us a committed "Yes" to every moment to experience it in its fullness and the courage to make a creative contribution to life and work towards an awakened society.

Integral Cafe: Integrating Ecological Awareness into Daily Life
Integral Ecology offers a pathway, by integrating both the self that encounters the world and the world as encountered by the self. By exploring our own patterns of development in relation to issues we deeply care about, we can see more clearly our past to present trajectories and then possible leaping off points for greater impact and embrace. By also presencing multiple perspectives on the world around us, including the interiors and relationalities of animals, we can increase our sense of intimacy and connectedness with the world around us. In more fully knowing ourselves and the world around us, we can experience greater levels of nourishment by life as well as enacting our unique contributions.
Join us for an evening that will be experiential, conceptual and conversational in it’s exploration of the growing field of integral ecology.

Thomas Hübl Returns to Vancouver
We are blessed to have Thomas Hubl return to Vancouver as part of his second North American tour this year!
Sharing the Presence is a practice which cultivates a permanently unfolding field that encourages, stimulates and supports presence, awareness and compassion in the world and cultivates an encompassing understanding of human consciousness and potential.
Currently a "New We" is emerging on the evolutionary surface of life. We start to experience a new awakening that takes us beyond usual forms of individual experience.
This special evening includes a selection of tools of Thomas’ work: Meditation, communication, the reading and understanding of fields of consciousness, toning, exercises in presence, training in intuition and inspiration.

Integral Community Seminar
Integral Community Seminar ~ Evolving the We!
August 9-14, 2011
Whidbey Institute, Whidbey Island, WA
The Integral Community seminar is being organized by our dear friends and colleagues at Next Step Integral, an organization with a great track record of putting on transformative events that are truly about “walking the talk”. Expert guidance, strong community support, as well as delivery of hands-on tools and skills make up this unique opportunity.
Are you seeking to co-create integral community from the ground up?
Or are you eager to find out how to awaken an existing community
you live or work within to greater consciousness?
We are alive at a unique time in our human history – a time that calls us to come together like never before, and that asks of us a deeper and broader understanding of the complex dynamics and potential of human relationships. We are alive at a time when creating meaningful, genuine community is not just a personal desire or option, but essential for our shared humanity to continue to evolve and flourish.
Come join integral community experts Terry Patten, Stephan Martineau, John Gruber, Terri O’Fallon, and many more to deepen and enact integral evolutionary community in the beautiful old-growth forest of the Pacific North-West! This is certain to be a dynamic and profoundly transformative week!
