What if Philosophy Isn't About Thinking, But About Living?
Welcome. This is a space for anyone who doesn’t quite know how to live life.
DOES any of this sound familiar?
🚶♀️➡️You wonder how to live and how you ought to live.
🌍 You see that individual & systemic transformation are inseparable.
🕶️ You know the dominant worldview of materialism & reductionism is inadequate and you want to upgrade to one that actually matches the challenges you face.
🧠 You value critical reason, embodied intuition, spiritual insight and seek to integrate them.
🏛️ You find self-help interesting, but too shallow and philosophy fascinating, but too abstract.
⛈️ You're weary of both naive optimism and cynical despair, searching for a path that feels real.
🎨 You feel the call to develop a way of living that is uniquely yours, yet deeply in service to the whole.
🏋️♀️ You want to practice living.
🌀 You've moved beyond wanting to be fixed and are drawn to a lifelong process of becoming.
yes?
Than, you have found a home.
Our work is not about adding more information, but about transforming the very processes through which we perceive, interpret, create and live our lives.
what is living philosophically?
radical self-authorship +
radical love for the whole
*for a more nuanced explanation, see here.
LIving philosophically is an open-ended experiment in self-transformation.
It’s the meta-path for which you explore and decide where it’s headed. It’s about being the author of your live in a way that aligns with the limits and needs of the whole.
Many of us are simply too busy and exhausted to live a life that serves us & the planet.
We need a “curriculum for living life” – an exploratory process that goes beyond simple solutionism, that acknowledges that life is messy, complex and unpredictable and that real self-transformation is possible.
How we can help
wild:philosophy
Our weekly explorations into the art of living (eko)philosophically.
Transmission from the emergent edge. We share essays and explorations that weave together philosophy, culture, and ecology to illuminate a practical path. No easy answers, only better questions.
philosophy Gyms
We tailor philosophical workouts to your ability, ensuring you're less foolish today and undeniably wiser tomorrow. It's our commitment to your life and the planet’s.
Muscles you will train:
Radical Inquiry: The ability to question your deepest assumptions with courage and curiosity.
Re- & Deconstruction: Of what it means to be human.
Whole-Self Integration: The art of weaving together your mind, heart, body, and shadow into a coherent self.
Emergent Purpose: The skill of discerning your unique contribution as it unfolds, rather than trying to force a predetermined plan.
And more
Life as Lab
Where we move from theory to lived experiment. If we are to transform our world, we must first prototype new ways of being in our own lives. The aim is to translate reimagined ways of seeing (practiced in the PhilosophyGyms) into concrete experiments in our daily lives, turning our life into a laboratory. How can our daily lives become the crucible for the very transformations we wish to see in the world? We don't have the answers, but we are committed to exploring the questions.
Coming Soon.
