#Bonus: Summer Solstice meditation with Manda Scott
It’s the summer solstice, the longest day and the shortest night. What matters now in our world is that we reconnect with the rhythms of the living web.
This meditation is designed to help you connect to the rising sun on this day of longest light.
Solstice Bonus
This version of the summer solstice meditation has periods of silence in which you can explore your own feelings and observe the focus of your awareness. As with all meditations, please find a safe, quiet place where you can be completely undisturbed for the duration of the meditation – and a short while afterwards.
This version of meditation has birdsong overlaid so there is no silence. As with all meditations, please find a safe, quiet place where you can be completely undisturbed for the duration of the meditation – and a short while afterwards.

ReWilding our Horses, Rewilding our Souls with Kelly Wendorf of EQUUS
How do we heal ourselves from the ‘lost-ness’ that afflicts our culture? How do we move on from the strange—and wholly untrue— belief our culture holds that we are separate from the natural world, that our cycles of exploitation, extraction, destruction, pollution are the way the world is, that this is the natural order and there’s nothing we can do to change it, individually or collectively?
Building the roots of a world that will work – with Victoria Hurth, co-author of Beyond Profit
We exist in a world where the ultra-rich are getting richer, powered by a system we call ‘the economy’ which is serving to funnel power and value up to an ever-shrinking core of wounded individuals who then project their trauma out on the rest of the world in a doomed attempt to feel better about being caught in a system that doesn’t promote human wellbeing.

Let the Wild Gods Rise! Bridging Between the Worlds with Jackie Morris and Tamsin Abbott
Let the Wild Gods Rise. Easy to say and harder to do – but if you were offered a portal, a way to step into the other-worlds, to reconnect with all that we have been and could be, would you take it? If you’re listening to this, you are likely steeped in the mechanical world of our culture – but it doesn’t have to be like this. The other worlds are alive, present…wild—and just within reach. All we need are doorways, places where the veils between the worlds grow thinner and then route maps to take us to—and through—them.
