Episode description

A special two-month season of On Being starts May 9. 

Freshly curated conversations from across the On Being archive. Big new conversations and extra offerings. 

To be present to the suffering and sorrow of this world from a place of love. 

To accompany each other in this — and accompany the young. 

To honor the fragility of being human. 

To keep our capacity for joy alive as a human birthright — and as fuel for resilience. 

To grasp the relationship between violence and power. 

To listen to our bodies, and metabolize the distress of our collective nervous system.

To practice the power of imagination and create new worlds and new ways of living.

To take the natural world as teacher and guide as we stand before the species-level shifts we're called to.

To nurture hearts "capacious enough" for the complexities and mysteries of ourselves and each other. 

Join us.
