March 2026: Joy
Joyful effort IS integrity: being in tune with your whole self and your connection to others, and receiving from the whole, by way of your unique place in it, the energy it takes to further the whole.-- Norman Fischer, The World Could Be Otherwise
Two sessions. What counts as joy. What surprised you. What you actually found when you went looking.
February 2026: Integrity
Integrity literally means "wholeness." Wholeness means everything in your life is put together as a whole--body, speech, mind, and activity; relationship to yourself, to others, and to the physical world.-- Norman Fischer, The World Could Be Otherwise
When you have integrity, you may have contradictions, disappointments, and defeats, but instead of being set aside or ignored, they are folded in--integrated--into who you are. You are dealing with them, living with them, as friends and allies.
Four weekly sessions exploring integrity as wholeness: feeling for it, naming people who model it, warning labels, and what we're taking with us.
