A World Appears

A Journey Into Consciousness 

By Michael Pollan

Both rigorous and deeply readable, A World Appears invites us to slow down and pay closer attention to our inner lives — to the feelings, perceptions, and sense of self that shape how we relate to one another and the living world. This book club offers space to read closely, ask big questions, and explore Pollan’s ideas in thoughtful conversation with fellow readers.

Nature's Genius

SEASON 2 OUT NOW!
A podcast series exploring how the sentient symphony of life holds the solutions we need to balance human civilization with living systems.

You'll grow, learn about yourself and others, and gain deeper appreciation for relationships with more-than-human beings.

2025 Participant

If you want to begin cultivating your own healing practice in partnership with Earth Mother, in a supportive environment with loving teachers that provide psychological safety and community connection, this is for you.

2025 Participant

I've learned invaluable lessons about capabilities, self-confidence, sisterhood, and interbeing.

2024 Participant

I gained a whole new perspective and tool set.

2024 Participant

I was grateful for the guest speakers, who really helped deepen my learning and understanding.

2025 Participant

I think you've got a great thing going (service for many) I appreciate it!

2023 Participant
It is a special and supportive space to explore and understand how we are operating with colonized ways of thinking and acting when it comes to giving. And then it offers space to begin to untangle from this, and intentionally act in a more liberated way.
2025 Participant
I found that the course was well presented and engaging. Penny really knows her "stuff"! She engaged us all and I wanted to go even deeper. If she offers another course, I'd love to be onboard. Thanks Bioneers!
2023 Participant
