Introduction 

 

We live at a pivotal time in the history of humanity, a time of Earth crises, where the catastrophic results of sustained over-consumption, pollution and extraction are threatening the lives of all beings on this beautiful blue-green planet. A cascade of inevitable outcomes are unfolding, from decades of a dominant system that disregards the delicate balance of the web of life, in the misapprehension that humans can somehow be separate and therefore invulnerable. A system that values material wealth over happiness and health, on a personal as well as societal level; enslaving everyone in the pursuit of economic growth and 'progress', denying the existence of anything unquantifiable, such as sentience and spirit, to justify harming, exploiting, subjugating and violating the non-human world, as well as fellow human beings.

We've grown up and lived in the shadow of this unchecked capitalism. For a long time many of us have questioned those values, and been part of an arising counter-movement that recognises the need to live in balance and harmonious relationship with all beings in order to survive and thrive; acknowledging our inseparability from the web of life.
Even as the extractive over-culture remains, lots of groundwork has been done in developing regenerative agriculture, holistic approaches to health and wellbeing, embracing indigenous and ancient wisdom, to help ourselves reawaken to a more embodied presence in our daily lives.

The movement is one of consciousness shift, away from the 'power-over' mindset of entrenched entitlement, towards a more humble, curious, collaborative and loving state of being. Replacing the 'Trauma culture' with something more initiatory: an ongoing awakening into a more meaningful relationship with Life.

The Earth Treasure Vase practice sits at the heart of this awakening.
