Rise: From One Island To Another
|
| Two poets, one from the Marshall Islands and one from Kalaallit Nunaat (Greenland), meet in a place of rising oceans so that they can share a moment of solidarity for the climate change they are seeing in their homelands. Kathy Jetñil-Kijiner and Aka Niviâna met on a melting glacier in Greenland that would threaten the Marshall Islands. They see the effects of the choices of the rest of the world changing their homes quicker than the other parts of the world. Through this video we get a glimpse of how large our world is, and yet so small and interdependent. |

Soft Power: A Magnetic Approach to Practice
“The desire to be in control is a normal survival response, but what I love about the art of aikido is that we can move beyond survival to a vast and universal perspective in which all life is connected and interwoven. Such an orientation is not self-conscious. Since it relates to the connecting aspect — that of the space and energy — rather than individuals, there is no thing that needs to be observed. All awareness can be involved with the movement of energy through space, organized and contained by the form. The result is soft fluid power enjoying the beauty and purity of the form. This kind of feeling is not only beautiful and fluid, it is difficult to resist or counter which makes it effective from a martial perspective.” Founder of Leadership Embodiment, and sixth-degree black belt Aikido practitioner Wendy Palmer shares more. { read more }
