A message from Weston Network Founder Joe Weston, creator of the Reviving Global Heart Online Practice. Hello all, I hope you are well and enjoying the emerging spring. I wanted to share the important news that starting now, we will be retiring from the Reviving the Global Heart practice. I started offering this practice on Tuesday mornings in June 2018. That summer, we named it “Global Practice for Lasting Peace,” and then it evolved into “Global Practice for Reviving the Global Heart.” With the help of Todd Hoskins and others, I have made sure that for the last 5 years, we never missed a Tuesday. I am grateful that we have been able to provide this space for those seeking connection and heart-centering. And I am grateful to those of you who attended. Please know that you will continue to be in my prayers as we all continue in our own way to “weave a golden thread of unrelenting hope throughout the world.” Please stay in touch and keep an eye out for other ways that we will create opportunities for connection. And, if you haven’t yet done so, check out our website and sign-up for our newsletter to remain in connection at www.joeweston.com. With much gratitude, Joe

A Dialogue with Carolyn Lukensmeyer & Joe Weston | Live Book Launch of Fierce Civility
Join us every Tuesday at 11:15 am ET for a 45-minute virtual gathering of like-minded individuals worldwide to cultivate the hope, intention, and implementation of Reviving the Global Heart. These sessions begin with a “motivation” — thoughts on what is happening in the world and our opportunities to “bridge” rather than continue the cycle of “breaking.” <br /><br />We then spend 15-20 minutes together in a silent practice to develop presence, grounding, courage, and an increased capacity to engage with more and more beings in an empowered, resilient, open-hearted way. The session will end with a discussion and a dedication.<br /><br />To learn more: https://respectfulconfrontation.com/reviving-the-global-heart/

  • Ask Joe: Two sides of a story June 2, 2023
    Hi Joe,I read your last article where you gave a woman advice on how to deal with her boss who keeps cutting her off in meetings. I think you gave some good tips, but you also mentioned that she may be talking too much as an option for what the problem is. Don’t you think […]
  • Ask Joe: The power of feeling valued May 19, 2023
    Hi Joe,I have a question that is more personal and not about societal change. I hope it’s ok to ask. I have a boss who shuts me down at meetings. He tends to let everyone else finish what they are saying (most of the team are men), but it seems when I share something, he […]

You talk a lot about hope and say that we need to appeal to the heart.While that all sounds good, when I look at the level of animosity and how […]

  • Ask Joe: The hope for a new global unity March 24, 2023
    Hey Joe,I have fun reading your articles, they remind me of how I used to be when I first got involved with activism work. But I’ve gotten older and seen the horrible things that people can do. I don’t see how people can change. There seems to be so much at stake. You always seem […]
