Tonight's super moon had a huge halo!

Since people find being hopeful and optimistic so cringe these days, let me remind you once again that there isn’t a single liberation movement in the world that wasn’t built on hope and optimism.

What a beautiful scene to meet after a day working in schools which seem designed to create stress. Together, we can help our communities shift from drama and stress to peace and comfort for all. #relaxation #resistance #revolution #peace #love xxx

Beautiful and wise writing from @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social on the importance of beauty and joy as we work together for freedom. 🌹🌿

One of the reasons I left the U.S.A. for Scotland thirty years ago is because Scotland offers a wonderful, nonprofit healthcare service. Imagine how much healthier the U.S.A. could be!

We all grow up with such strong, unconscious beliefs about the world, that it can be hard to see the world as it is. Reality shakes those beliefs. Some of us are grasping tighter, some are letting go. Maybe most of us are doing both. Let's be gentle with ourselves as we navigate these times 💗 #yoga

Yesterday, my partner and I climbed the sixth highest peak in Britain. Less than a year after his heart attack, Paul is shining with health and vitality. Nature reminds us that self-renewal is the way of life. Connecting with the sacred is a way of healing our world. #scotland #hearthealth

Writing, Ursula Le Guin reminds us, can be an art of resistance. Making time to nurture our gifts, as she did hers, can be a great gift to others. Watch all the way for thoughts on how writers can resist more effectively. #writing

Here's a little follow up on the video I did the other day about immigration. #immigration #immigrants #ukimmigration #livingintheuk #loveeachother❤️ #findingourvoices

We don't have to put up with the way society is. We can make changes. It's time for new models, new systems, that are in harmony with Nature, with Life. #revolution

Good morning friends, it's not always easy to speak up, to be real. But now is the time. #immigration

What if we didn't take our judgement of ourselves and each other so seriously? This joyful clip comes from a longer talk called Sacred Anarchy: St Hildegard of Bingen and the Revolution of Love, recorded at the first annual Harmony & Balance Retreat in Scotland. Well we see you at the fifth one?

What a beautiful tribute to Joanna Macy by Rebecca Solnit. #hope www.meditationsinanemergency.com/in-honor-of-...

🚨 This is serious. Nigel Farage’s Reform UK just opened the floodgates to dark money in our politics by becoming the first UK party to accept untraceable crypto donations. ✍️ I just signed this petition to stop it - please join me and add your name too: 38d.gs/uwp6

“What kind of ancestors do we want to be? With every action or inaction, we help decide how the future will unfold. What principles and commitments do we want to adopt for a democracy that doesn’t yet exist? How will we cast our votes for a society we won’t live to see?” — Astra Taylor

Remarkable. MSNC: "I want to reiterate this has been 100% peaceful." Seconds later, LA County sheriffs start firing on the crowd. Yet again, "law enforcement" deliberately escalated.

Private companies are polluting our rivers, hiking up bills, and failing to deliver. 82% of us want public ownership – let’s make it happen! Sign the open letter now & demand action! 👉 you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/pu...

People power works 💪💗

I found this a deeply inspiring discussion about the challenges and incredible possibilities of our times. Highly recommended.

"In other countries, this would be called 'an authoritarian coup.' In America, mealy-mouthed officials call our transition into a mafia state 'deeply troubling' and do little to curb the damage." -- HIDING IN PLAIN SIGHT (2020)

Let's listen and act 💗

The Heart Of Mother Earth is calling, calling us HOME. Now is the time for deep reconnection with ourselves, with each other, with the Earth. Now is the time for regeneration – of the soil, of society, of the spirit. Now is the time to come together to help heal our world and ourselves.

Police raid pacifists.... Hello?? www.quaker.org.uk/news-and-eve...

The coup in the U.S.A. came with a plan. Want to see how it's progressing? This is our wake up call, friends.

Every voice is woven into the song of the world. Yours, mine, the children down the road. Perhaps we could, each in our own way, be like birds on the wing Singing the joy of life, the beauty of being Flying free in the open sky of the infinite heart. #poetry #writing #hope #birdsong

How often do we hear that the state of the world is due to 'human nature'? Here's one of my favourite responses to that: (Sculpture by Sue Hill)

How many friends have I loved so deeply, I thought I must be in love with them? The way their hearts and mine have shared secret whispers, as intimate as any bedfellows, was something my culture did not prepare me for. Mostly, we wore armour and said everything was fine, even when it wasn’t.

A Field of Hope is a short story set in a Scottish school where the children take action together. Part 2 coming soon.

Together, we can find our voices.

Sound on for best experience.

Anyone who happened to know that the White House would announce and then suspend tariffs within 24 hours just made a boatload of money.

It's one thing to call for change. It's another to embody it. #bethechange

What can we do when things seem dark? Shine brighter 🌞🙏💖 Thank you @padmapeacefulheart.bsky.social for the ongoing reminders.

Today is #NationalHandwritingDay. So what better day to do some #journaling, or maybe hand-write a letter to someone you care about - just to tell them that. More personal than an email, a letter or note becomes a little treasure of connection. Photo: www.earthpathwaysdiary.uk/product/eart...
