From Being
Welcome 🌱
From Being examines the intersection of contemplative traditions, modern neuroscience, psychotherapy, and the ecocentric worldview. A primary orientation within that mix is training in the direct experience of nondual mindfulness.
Beyond that, we hope to contribute to the health of our biosphere through various skillful means, particularly ones that help humans decouple from ego-identification and the sense of separateness.
The words on this site ultimately point toward something that’s beyond concept - direct experience. So, try as we may, the paradoxes of awake-flow are always just beyond language’s grasp. How beautiful.
That said, it’s also not just reserved for the sages, those who retreat from modern life into silence, or others who’ve become familiar with it in the context of a specific interest/practice. Though easier to experience than describe, it’s a pre-installed capacity that’s accessible by all.
We’re know and appreciate that there are many paths. From Being only seeks to share insights on a few. We also can’t wait to learn what’s working for others - so reach out!
Ultimately, we tend to think there’s much more in common than there is that’s distinct. We sure love connecting the dots.
Coauthorship
It’s at the heart of everything. When we truly zoom out, we see a tapestry of interwoven conditions comprising one symphony.
From Being emphasizes that interconnection and looks forward to a living breathing story written with you.
Stay tuned, reach out, be still or let be.
