Online Conference

Join world-renowned thinkers and practitioners for an unforgettable online gathering. During these three days together, we will explore practices, insights, and roadmaps for shaping a wiser, weller world through resilience, wisdom and community.
Online Resiliency Circle




"If you want to go fast, go alone.
If you want to go far, go with others."
You can only build relational capacities with others, and here you can do it with like-minded changemakers. Join a small group of conference participants (max. 10) facilitated by the somatically trained NeuroSystemics team, in a 3-month weekly somatic process group by deeply exploring authentic relating, emotion co-regulation, boundary-setting and through embodied practices.
Online Transformation Fellowship




Join a group of 20-30 conference changemakers and wisdom seekers, dedicated Transformation Fellows, embarking on a 6-month collective journey of monthly connection, study, open space and embodied practice together. Build community and network to embody and propel the needed transition towards a weller, wiser world.
A Wisdom-Based Community of Practice Acting for a Second Renaissance
More than a 1-off event, we aim to support a wide movement responding robustly to the Metacrisis: a fundamental break in consciousness, views and values leading to the set of interdependent crises (climate, tech, political and more):
-
Our Conferences offer innovative thought leadership (3 days)
-
Our Resiliency Circles propose deeply embodied and experiential spaces for growth (3 months)
-
Our Fellowships help apply insights into one's daily life (6 months)
