NowHere Report March 2026
We continue to advance with the development of NowHere, our contemplative education initiative that brings contemplative practices, relational awareness, and ecological sensitivity into educational settings.
Program Development
We have completed the draft of the NowHere Pilot Program materials for Stage 1, an 8-week program designed for adults (teachers, parents, and caregivers, etc.) that engages three essential dimensions: Exploring Experience, Exploring Nature, and Exploring with Others.
The Stage 1 draft has now been shared with collaborators for feedback to further refine. Each session combines guided practices, reflection prompts, and experiential activities that cultivate presence and curiosity both inwardly and within a group.
Online Presence & Substack Platform
We have launched a Substack website as our central digital hub. The platform serves two key purposes:

Recruitment for the Pilot Program
We are now initiating the first NowHere Pilot Program and inviting participants to sign up. Our target audience is adults interested in experiencing this contemplative approach firsthand and providing feedback to shape the next phase of development. The first stage of NowHere will serve as both a testing ground and a learning community.
