Coming up this weekend in Southern Oregon:

THE OREGON GREEN EXPO PRESENTS

> The Field and Stream Festival | Jackson County Fairgrounds - MEDFORD, OREGON - SATURDAY & SUNDAY

Buy Local. Sustainable Region. Permaculture. Sustainable Valley. Energy Independence. Self Sufficiency. Food Security. Clean Energy. Green Jobs. Alternative Transportation. New Urbanism.

What does all of this have to do with the FIELD & STREAM FESTIVAL? Our goal for this event is to create an economical venue for small businesses to sell their products and services to a highly targeted audience that is interested in buying local, living a more green and sustainable lifestyle.  What better way to POWER UP LOCAL ECONOMY than to market green businesses through our internet presence ahead of the FIELD & STREAM FESTIVAL, then deliver an audience that is HIGHLY interested on October 9 & 10th.

Coming up next weekend in San Rafael, California:

BIONEERS CONFERENCE

> Bioneers Conference: Revolution from the Heart of Nature (San Rafael, California) - October 14th - 18th

"Bioneers is inspiring a shift to live on Earth in ways that honor the web of life, each other and future generations."

Viable solutions already exist for most of our environmental and social crises. The solutions in nature consistently surpass our concept of what is possible. Where we don’t know what to do, we have a good idea what directions to head in. Once people discover these realities, it dramatically leverages pressure for change.

That vision ignited us in 1990 to found the Bioneers Conference to disseminate breakthrough solutions. In 2006, the landmark UN Millennium Ecosystem report concluded: “Human activity is putting such strain on the natural functions of Earth that the ability of the planet’s ecosystems to sustain future generations can no longer be taken for granted.”

The hour is dangerously late, yet there appears to be a worldwide awakening. The next ten years will be the make-it-or-break-it period to make a fundamental, large-scale shift.

Bioneers has two keystone goals to help make this shift successfully.

  • Connect people with solutions by popularizing breakthrough ideas and practices.
  • Grow social capital by catalyzing, connecting and strengthening strategic networks, including bioregional and community-based alliances.

As Bioneers celebrates our 20th anniversary, our ability to act as a fertile source for the urgent transition to a restored world is converging with an unprecedented receptivity in the world for innovative ways of thinking and acting.

There is as much cause for hope as for horror. As David Orr said, “Hope is a verb with its sleeves rolled up.”

Coming up this November in Chico, California:

BIRTH INTO BEING BIRTHSHOP & APPRENTICESHIP TRAINING WITH ELENA TONETTI

> LEVEL 1 and/or LEVEL 2 (Two and/or Four-Day): Limbic Imprint Re-coding Birthshop with Elena Tonetti-Vladimirova | RSVP for Location - CHICO, CALIFORNIA - NOVEMBER 12th & 13th OR 12th THROUGH 15th

Birthshop Level 1 (2 days) $360 per person  ($50 discount for a couple, plus additional $50 discount for early registration a month prior to the event).

The 2-Day Birthshop is for anyone who was born into less than blissful circumstances and would like to change the way it is affecting them in the Present. It is not only for pregnant women, but for all interested in shifting their behavioral patterns. The way we were born defines the quality of our experience of being alive, as shown by 25 years of research in the field of prenatal psychology.  How we access and use our creativity is a reflection of our emotional experiences during our early formative period, from conception through the first years of life. Unfortunately, the great majority of people on our planet were born through suffering, thus "limbically imprinted" to struggle. Read more...

Birthshop Levels 1 & 2 (4 days) $700 per person  ($50 discount for a couple, plus additional $50 discount for early registration a month prior to the event)

The 4-Day workshop offers more of the processes and exercises that build on the experiences from Level 1, where the group focused on pre-conception, conception, gestation and birth. On Days 3 and 4 we will focus on what happens afterwards. We’ll create new reference points in the nervous system that will allow a new quality of attention, range of attitudes, perceptions and expanded experience of happiness. From that place, every aspect of life improves - all that we are and do, including the people-making capacity. Read more...

> LEVEL 3 (Ten-Day): Limbic Imprint Re-coding Birthshop & Apprenticeship Training | RSVP for Location - CHICO, CALIFORNIA - NOVEMBER 12th THROUGH 21st

Apprenticeship Training Level 3 (10 days) $1500 per person ($100 discount for a couple, plus an additional $100 discount for early registration two months prior to the event)

"The emphasis of this training entails a profound personal alignment with the Birthing Field, and learning the skills of navigating one’s energy within the intensity of situation, whatever the source of intensity is (including giving birth to a child or witnessing one). Also I will teach my techniques and certify the attendants as "Birth Into Being" birthshop facilitators at the end of the 10 day intensive. We now have 64 BIB facilitators in 14 countries.

The certificate will state that after completion of the Apprenticeship, the bearer is qualified to conduct 'Birth Into Being' workshops, of his or her own design - which utilizes the new awareness and skills, yet allows room to bring forth the individual's specific strengths and preferences. It is not 'one size fits all' approach; it is more of a courage and  freedom to be creative and spontaneous.  Working with the Birthing Field does not require a rigid structure, it is the quality of presence that we need to learn.
