Embracing Community: Living an Inspired Life

This booklet touches on an issue central for many of us living in a fast-paced, challenged, and shrinking world. We are aware of how intimately linked we are with one another and with our planet, but often we feel helpless and disempowered. It is an issue both intensely personal and communal-how can we discover our life purpose and then bring forth our gifts to nourish our communities and our world? How can we make a difference, while fulfilling our life's calling?

These introductory exercises begin where change always begins: within yourself. Step one is to Clarify your Life Purpose, and we'll show you through journaling exercises, day walks, and creative dreaming how to pinpoint what makes you feel most alive. We'll guide you in not only discovering your gifts but owning them. Next comes the essential task of Keeping your Vision Alive as you go through the steps of birthing your dream. Finally, experience the fulfillment as you watch your efforts translate into Living your Life Purpose-we'll show you how to take critical action steps to manifest the vision into a vibrant form that can be shared with others. When you live an inspired life, your contributions dovetail with what your community needs, creating waves of harmonious exchange and mutual enrichment.

Embracing Community is one of the branches of Wild Sacredness, an organization dedicated to bringing forth the authentic, passionate essence within each of us, and nurturing that as we manifest our individual power and purpose, our capacity for deep, intimate relationships, and a dynamic, engaged relationship with our community.
