Channel: Quest for Global Healing

James O'Dea

The Quest for Global Healing channel, hosted by James O'Dea, explores how to deal with wounds created by conflict, collective trauma and large-scale oppression. We highlight areas of collective experience which remain unresolved, neglected, and repressed within the psyche of groups and even nations. Our focus in on consciousness rather than politics per se; global healing is psycho-spiritual in nature and only activist in its consequences. The primary modalities for this work are truth, reconciliation, forgiveness and restorative justice. This vital and emerging field of inquiry empowers us to dialogue with history - and history in the making – and not simply experience it as a series of externalized events or enactments that are beyond our reach. Join us in engaging some of the most amazing social healers of our time.

Note: The name Quest for Global Healing comes from a Sausalito, CA organization aligned with IONS in a mutual effort to shift global consciousness. Please visit www.questforglobalhealing.org for details about their work and their extraordinary conference in Bali.
