​Kitsap Resiliency Project: Workshop Synopsis

“A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.”
~ Albert Einstein

Goals and Objectives

​Teaching people to fish. These are hands on workshops that will give people the perspective and tools to create community. We are looking for people who are seeking change, in themselves, in their community, and in their environment. These workshops will challenge you to see outside of the box, beyond labels, and help you build a toolbox for effective change. They might even provide a support structure moving forward, but that is up to you.

Connecting, Building Community, and Networking

We humans have an almost infinite capability for self delusion, even when all evidence says we are mistaken. This comes from living in a culture that has made everything far more complicated, and far less human than it needs to be.

Nobody will fix this for us, NOBODY!

This is your first lesson in perspective, this workshop is your fist step to a more human culture. It is up to us to learn how to make changes effectively, NOT YOU ALONE, but us together.

Why you? If not you who?

If nobody engages, nothing changes... does that work for you, your family, out humanity, our future?

Invest an hour and a half this coming Saturday and lets look at the problem and the solution and see if it is something you can do.
