Awakening 101: Foundations for a Healthy, Sustainable, Peaceful World is a unique, essential book for these times.  It lays out a bold, compelling case for why, for the first time in our species history, we have the people, resources & technologies to end the use of violence to resolve conflict and ensure a basic standard of living for everyone on Earth.  Part philosophical treatise, part self-help, and an impassioned call to our better angels – from a sustainability expert turned Yogi, that really gets at root causes of some of our biggest environmental & social challenges.

Throughout, it offers practical tips that can dramatically improve health & wellness, including cutting edge research, leading thinkers, and experts offering paradigm changing solutions and policy recommendations for transforming ourselves, our communities & our world.  It concludes with a bold new vision for the re-design of our communities and their associated infrastructure and demonstrates dozens of simple, low-cost changes that, when practiced together, stand to make an enormous difference. A must read for students & adults, including policy makers, who are passionate about change for a better world.

What if on the planet right now we had the people, resources & technologies to re-align our communities & institutions in service of our shared good & the time immemorial Holy Grail of Peace on Earth?   Awakening 101 is an inspiring call to action that shows that we have never been better equipped to do just this.

“It’s time to recognize the idea of Peace On Earth is not some hippy-dippy, naive fantasy, but the most efficient, economical and intelligent path forward.” 

Bradley Grove Hyson, Awakening 101
