The difference it makes for me is awareness of a kind of synchronicity to my days. Not necessarily easier, but things just seem to fall in place in often unexpected ways.

Wonderful to hear about your work with the Denver ANCA and the summer film series, Milan. I appreciate that Linda reminds us often on Facebook of the number of days left to radically reduce carbon in the atmosphere in this critical decade. We can each make
a positive difference in the lives of those around us and in our own life. And as Margaret Wheatley says, we each need an "island of sanity" to live on and with while we do what we can and enjoy this precious life. </div>

<div dir="auto">Thanks for the encouragement Rob. We here in Redlands are working with the Denver ANCA model, thanks to my lovely wife, Linda. Your mention of Doughnut Economics brought up the summer film series we are doing here. The first two got good reception
and brought out some new volunteers: Facing Adversity, Choosong Earth, Choosing Life, the Duane Elgin film, and Breaking Boundaries, narrated by David Attenborough. The August preview will be The Sequel, based on David Fleming’s work, features briefly Raworth
an Doughnut Econimics. Milan<br>

In these chaotic, stressful times, we often dwell in warm memories of the past, sadness in the present, or dread of the future. Our OE/ICA teachings invite us, as you well know, to live in the present in mystery, consciousness, care, and tranquility, and to
help create a better future through our every thought, word, and deed. I know that some of my colleagues are doing or supporting wonderful initiatives to awaken people to climate change adaptation and mitigation, such as in the Denver region, help the homeless,
such as Kaze Gadway in Albuquerque, defend women's rights and representational democracy, and much more. I would love to know what you are doing, are planning to do, or hoping to do, so that we can learn from and support one another. </div>

One small example, in the past few months I have been part of a group of local citizens here in the mountains of western North Carolina discussing and taking action in the Swannanoa watershed to create a safe, just, social and economic foundation and space
for all the people while not overshooting the ecological ceiling. We are using the model of Doughnut Economics developed by Kate Raworth of the UK. I understand that Karen Troxel and Jan Sanders discussed this model in a recent ICA calendar event. Sometimes
I use ToP methods with the group. You might be interested in using the Doughnut in your local area. The model is attached to this email. Please let me know if you would like further info. </div>

Of course, whatever we are doing or not doing, we need to take good care of our body-mind to stay present, grateful, happy, and healthy. For example, I practice mindful breathing throughout each day to care for myself so that I might be available to help others.
What are some of your practices of self care?</div>
