βAs above, so below...β
At the moment this school opens, the world is on fire and humanity wonders when AI might get so performant that it replaces humanity.
One could seek to question how much of our Human-ness we renounced to in order to ever be considered replaceable by machines, or build systems consistently accelerating towards a self-destruction weβve been foreseeing for decades. What if we could turn it all around by recovering something that has always been here and has always been ours: the totality of our essence as living beings?
Indeed, the βcollectiveβ is the result of all the individualities it consists of and their interactions: the world we currently live in did not just happen, it is the visible part of dynamics underlying human decisions and values systems we can trace back to Neolithic 10,000 years ago (O. Hamant).
The multiple crises Humanity brought upon itself - and the rest of life on our planet - can be seen both as the symptoms of late stage toxic developments; and an invitation to look at all the parts of our living essence we had to leave behind for it to happen.
In order to facilitate the emergence of human societies that actively co-create and thrive together with the forces of life on Earth, Deep Wild School explores the reciprocal dynamics between inner liberation and systems change.
It draws on the reunion of ancient and modern wisdoms to act as an instrument for the recovery of all our humanity and intelligence to the service of joy, beauty, and liberation for all.

How We Work
-
Deep Wild School is a practice space where we experiment how to imagine, build and nurture the New World. All our experiences are designed around helping you DO something different or something new to start transforming the world now.
-
We see the current crises as a rite of passage towards the next evolution of being human: one where we have reclaimed the totality of our living essence to take our full part in the realms of Life on Earth.
Deep Wild School not only works in holding the inner worlds of highly sensitive individuals taking on the work to build another path for us all; but also builds capacity towards essential human skills such as power of imagination, relational courage, kinship, or walking with the unknown. -
Deep Wild School is not a space for more passive content consumption: your time and energy are precious.
If you are here, it is because you feel like another world is possible and you want to start reclaiming that possibility alongside beings who resonate with that longing.In this space, you can expect, among others: being asked how you are doing, circles to connect with your peers (locally when possible), live conversations with your instructors to follow up on classes and the roadmaps you design for yourself and your community.
-
Deep Wild School aims at elevating our capacity to hear, understand and collaborate with the forces of Life on Earth. To this avail, our experiences fully integrate the concepts of more-than-human and invisible worlds.
