Core Elements of Thriving Communities: a Slide Show Presentation
March 19, 2010, Friday, 4:30 - 7:00 pm.
Teacher: Tracie Sage
This is the slide show presentation from my summer research tour of six European communities and a village—each 25+ years old—with practices and core elements of functional social structures that have passed the test of time. I will share from my experiences studying these working models of community living, participating in their daily life and interviewing the community members. I feel totally inspired by the aspects of these communities that have made them successful and feel eager to inspire others by sharing the insights, stories, and photos I’ve gathered. These tried and true practices can be applied in your circle or community, whatever form it takes, to deepen connection and cooperation, enhancing the social roots of “village” in your life today.

The Secret to Keeping the Peace in Community
March 20-21, 2010, Saturday and Sunday, 10:00 am - 5:00 pm.
Teacher: Tracie Sage
Learn the secret to keeping the peace in this weekend of rekindling the social roots of the "village" together.
Our weekend will be an experiential embodiment of the essential core elements of thriving communities that are revealed in the slide show presentation on Friday evening. I will be sharing practices to help you connect more deeply and compassionately with yourself and each other.
You will practice listening with all your senses, being a non-judgemental witness, and body-centered awareness techniques - practices you can integrate into your relationships and daily life.
On Saturday afternoon, we will continue to cultivate the closeness and support of "village" in our group with some fun games. And on Sunday, we will share a real experience of my Co-creative Solutions Process - a process that supports collaboration while also giving us safe ways to work through the issues and conflicts that naturally arise in our human relationships. You will spend the last afternoon supporting each other in ways of integrating the useful elements of your weekend into your own lives, families and communities.
