Asynchronous Learning & Contemplation Resources

Each day during Convocation you will have 90 minutes offline, designated for some solo learning and contemplation. We have gathered resources into two clusters for you to browse and engage during the Asynchronous Learning and Contemplation time on Thursday, September 30 and Friday, October 1.

You will be able to engage with resources by our Convocation presenters for a time of LEARNING and/or explore guided practices for a time of CONTEMPLATION.

There is no end to what we might learn from each of the Convocation 2021 presenters, and we hope that you will continue to glean from them and their work well beyond Convocation.

Also, we have assembled several prompts and practices — form a variety of sources — each intended to guide you in an experience of contemplation. We hope these offerings will take you outside, help you to connect with the earth, and deepen your sense of self as a generative part of nature.

At the video link below, view an example of a contemplative practice, which we shared with participants during Convocation 2020:

Trailside Practice - Pocketful of Paradox

We we will be mailing a BTS Box filled with useful materials and delightful surprises meant to enhance the Convocation experience to the first 150 people who register before Tuesday, September 21. If you've been waiting, we encourage you to take a minute to REGISTER TODAY to ensure that one of those boxes is labeled with your address and on its way to you next week!
