Toward an Integral Perspective is an opportunity to broaden and deepen the lens through which we view ourselves, others, and the world at large.  The framework within which we'll do this is what Ken Wilber has called an "all-quadrant, all-level, all-line, all-state, all-type" or AQAL approach-by any other name, "integral."

Together, we'll explore the contemporary manifestations of decades of research and centuries of wisdom through both dialogue and multi-media presentations.  We'll sit in council, meditate, and take a balanced look at the "dignities and disasters" of our respective intentions, worldviews and behaviors.  We'll discover the value of an integral perspective applied to our personal and professional lives, as well as to the rest of the planet-and beyond.

Ultimately our work together will encourage us, and provide insights and strategies, to attain health and balance wherever we find ourselves, and, for those so inclined, insight and strategies for ongoing transformation.  

What You'll Need: openness, courage and a sense of humor.  While familiarity with Ken Wilber's work is not required, if you'd like to read his overview of "integral" visit www.integralinstitute.org/approach.htm, or, if you have the time, peruse A Theory of Everything (Shambhala, 2000).
