Deeper Change Events

CEIO's Deeper Change events create spaces that invite fundamental transformation. A change that is so deep that a return to the previous conditions is utterly inconceivable. Courageous conversations - grounded in peace, justice, and love.

Deeper Change Forums -- and our newest offering, Deeper Change Salons -- host speakers, artists and workshops to address and move us toward systemic change throughout our society, with an emphasis on New Haven. Events allow community members to hear from and learn with each other and with featured presenters who are working at root levels of for change. Topics have ranged from environmental justice to wellbeing, organizing to art as disrupting injustice.

Deeper Change Salons are evening gatherings that will center and bring in various wisdom from all of us as we are in the practice of creating the worlds we want to live in. We are excited to create this space as a structured ritual and gathering space to engage in ideas, inspirations, and connection. These will be in addition to our full day Deeper Change Forums.

 

Deeper Change Forums and Deeper Change Salons are open to all and offered freely. Registration is required for all events.

We are excited to invite you to our next Deeper Change Forum featuring Bread and Puppet, a politically-radical puppet theater company that has performed and led events worldwide for over 60 years.



This year we will continue to explore our Deeper Change series with the theme 'Practices of Resistance' as a means to get to the roots and practice change in our communities at that level. B&P will host a workshop on a practice of theatrical protest/storytelling called "Cantastoria" in the afternoon from 2-5 p.m. and performing their show "An Obligation to Live" in the evening from 7-8:15 p.m.

 

You are invited to join us for one or both of the day's offerings. After the evening performance, B&P will serve their famous sourdough rye bread with aioli and there will be an arts market with B&P's 'Cheap Art' and local CT artists' work for sale.

Seane Corn: We Must Practice Conscious Activism

In this Wanderlust Speakeasy at Squaw Valley, internationally celebrated yoga teacher Seane Corn discusses her life as an activist and how she has gained perspective through her practice of yoga. Through her experience Corn has found activism unsustainable in its past and current forms, as it encourages a dynamic of non-communication: People shouting at each other, but not listening to each other. In this kind of interaction, we are expressing our outrage, fear, and anger—but we are not owning them. “We are here to learn what love is. Part of the journey of learning what love is is seemingly its opposite—learning what love is not. To understand the light, we must also understand the shadow.” – Seane Corn Corn demonstrates the concept of conscious activism: A system of shared understanding and inclusive, supportive communication. This, she states, is the very core of yoga, and our job as yogis is to change the old approach to activism by consciously engaging with the world through our decisions, actions, spending, and politics. In this Speakeasy, Corn also discusses: Gross versus subtle energies and how they manifest in the body. How the injustices in the world are reflected in our own lives, and how to change them. Why it's important to connect with each other as allies. How learning empathy is a true path to oneness. “If we really want to believe that all is one, make it so. Heal your relationships. Look back on your life, look at your narratives. Forgive. Forgive yourself for thinking you should have known better, forgive them for thinking they should have known better.” – Seane Corn For more information, visit her website (http://www.seanecorn.com/).
