* Charles Eisenstein’s Sanity Project 2026 https://charleseisenstein.substack.com/p/sanity-project-2026-and-some-in-person “Sanity is a group process, a collective awakening from our collective delusions. That is why I encourage people who are drawn to the material in Sanity Project 2026 to join the discussion community. Membership in NAAS is by monthly donation at http://naascommunity.org. If your financial condition makes the lowest option unsupportable, we will happily give you free access, as long as you can assure us you aren’t an AI bot. We really want to keep those out. We are also hosting two live gatherings and a local event. We will hold our annual NAAS retreat from June 24-28 at Ferry Beach, Saco, Maine, right on the shore. It is about 25 minutes from Portland International Airport, which is easy to get to. Families with children are welcome. You will find registration details inside NAAS. I’ll also host a shorter event on the last weekend of August at the Omega Institute. And if you are local to Rhode Island or nearby, I’m also speaking at a small event on January 24 at the Awaken Wholeness Center. Finally, the Halfmoon Podcast continues.”

notes/quotes from 8 min video [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLQQYN7yUNk]:

world crazier now than in 2023 (after covid).. opinion tribes that filter out inconvenient facts.. very much a defn of insanity.. weave an entire reality for yourself.. more and more detached.. from what is true that doesn’t depend on a story

1 min – not about finding a bunch a people who agree with each other and think everybody else is insane.. but are willing to go into deeper processes of how to maintain stability in a world gone mad when anything you see can be a deep fake.. where individuals curate/spin things to make a narrative.. at a loss to know what is real..

2 min – sanity is a group project.. so not about finding people you agree with.. but about finding people who can support the humble quest to let info in that doesn’t fit preconceived beliefs.. what do we do with that info.. what happens when we let that in.. not only all the pain/suffering.. but the miracles.. the possibilities..

3 min – sometimes we jump into making sense of the things that don’t make sense.. leads us to more insanity.. so .. data points that don’t fit.. i’m going to offer alt story lines.. synthesis of seemingly contradictive narratives.. paradoxes.. simple truths that don’t depend on a story.. that bring us back to basics of being a human.. the things we know when we are faced w death/illness..

5 min – i’ll bring things i don’t know.. this isn’t the time to look for the guy who has all the answers.. but maybe new questions.. ingredients for new sense making not offered elsewhere

6 min – videos.. but if want deeper level of engagement.. hosting online forum/community where people can discuss.. some of the truths i would consider essential to sanity

7 min – online community called a new and ancient story.. has a high signal to noise ratio.. patsy and i hope high level of discourse will continue..

8 min – likely to be a tribulent year.. but a lot of it will be on level of our prardigms/beliefs/ids.. i hope i can contribute to creating an island of sanity as we go thru the year
