Communal Reverie is an emerging practice that has been framed alternatively as a “we-space” modality and a “collective wisdom technology.”

It stands in the lineage of Ria Baeck’s Collective Presencing practice and draws further influence and inspiration from a variety of imaginal practice modalities, including C.G. Jung’s Active Imagination, Robert Bosnak’s Embodied Imagination, and Rob Burbea’s Soulmaking Dharma, and Cynthia Bourgeault’s Imaginal Wisdom School.

It is stewarded in alliance with Rosa Lewis’s Imaginal Realm Project.

Communal Reverie is a rare modality of practice insofar as it focuses on the dyad or group, rather than the individual, as a distinctly relevant and coherent unit for approaching imaginal encounters.

Communal Reverie is an experiment rooted in a continuously refining exchange between theory and practice.

I am particularly interested in supporting collaborative endeavors or organizations attempting to envision and creatively enact regenerative cultural futures that reach beyond the familiar patterns and structures of modernity.

To those interested in one-on-one imaginal work, or for post-conventional organizations interested in imaginal field consultation, read the Deep Alignment primer below to learn more and contact me….

Communal Reverie is a reflection of an important current within the spirit of the times. This may be described as the emerging growth of a “metamodern” or “integral” consciousness and sensibility.

It is one of many emerging practice modalities aiming to reach beyond the modern emphasis on individuality toward sources of collective intelligence and wisdom. Each of these practices add valuable contributions to the larger emerging pattern of which they are a part.

This pattern has been described in numerous ways. Elizabeth Debold and Thomas Steininger have described it as a turn toward a “post-personal culture,” and cultural philosopher Jean Gebser described as the “supersession of the ego.”

Group fields can act as conductors for a form of wisdom inaccessible to individuals alone. Deepening through senseful presence in mutuality, a form of collective creativity becomes possible for responding to the challenges of our era…
