Dancing Between Paradigm

Evolving Our Thinking to Regenerate Life

How to approach this article + context

Test all the ideas you read in this article with your own experience. I’m by no means an expert, and have a lot to learn from you as the reader and co-participant in personal evolution! I felt called to further dive into this topic and test my own capabilities to discern paradigms of thinking after listening to a dialogue between Carol Sanford and Josie Plaut around discernment as a core skill in systems change work. This is heavily influenced by Carol’s article around Heeding Einstein’s Admonition : A White Paper on Regeneration’s Significance. I recommend reading this if you want to dive deeper into paradigms!

First off, we can accept that we are enough in this moment. We are whole, as we were born whole.
