Volume XXV - Tending a World in Crisis

Welcome to this week’s Tending Tuesdays offering! Tending Tuesdays was inspired by a pull to sustain the value of what happens when we come together as a community. Each Tuesday, an email will come to you with a link to a new video on a Dream Tending or depth psychological topic in the form of current writing and research, interviews, discussions with colleagues, and clips of tending dreams.

Dear Dream Tending and Imagination Community,

We find ourselves in a world threatened today by two nightmarish events—global climate crisis and war in Europe. Both create fear, agitation, and for many, acute anxiety. Now, more than ever, we need each other. We find comfort and strength in communities of deep belonging, communities of the caring.

I travel often to Belarus and to Russia offering Dream Tending and Deep Imagination seminars and workshops. Over the years, heartfelt, soul-centered communities have evolved. As you read this, I am currently working with an online community of Dream Tenders, mostly from the United States and Canada. Together we are hosting dreams and journeying into realms of imagination. There is something beautiful when we come together and share the life of our inner communities with those we care about in our outer communities. We experience the depth of care and support for one another.

Today, I invited the group to share their compassion with those Dream Tenders in Minsk and Moscow. Hearts opened and, through the dreamtime, I could feel loving connections being made.

I invite you, this day, to join us. To open your imagination-centered life to those who are in need of us as we are of them.

Until next Tuesday . . .

In the dreamtime,

Steve
