Ecological enquiry

We are truly relational beings, living amalgamations of neighbourhood, place, relationship, ancestral lines, current events, ecosystems, social systems, stories, cosmologies, worldviews, possible futures, and histories. 

Ecological enquiry is a living practice and way of being that helps us discover the depth of relationality, complexity, and interbeing that informs us as individuals, groups, and organisations. Through its practice, we can uncover just some of what is alive within our personal, collective, and organisational experiences, ideas, challenges, and questions so that we can be relational members of this multispecies, multigenerational world with more attunement, grace, and response-ability.

And, by practicing ecological enquiry together, we can practice being in relationship with the social field, the invisible but tangible field that arises when we gather in groups.

Enquiry: exploring perspectives, ideas, beliefs, blindspots, and experiences with curiosity, compassion, and depth.
Ecological enquiry: discovering the depth of relationality, complexity, and interbeing that informs us as individuals, groups, and organisations.

Dive deeper into the practice of ecological enquiry and how it unfolds for individuals, groups, and organisations in the ecological enquiry guide.

BECOMING CLOSER TO OURSELVES AND EACH OTHER AS ECOLOGICAL BEINGS.

CURIOUS ABOUT ECOLOGICAL ENQUIRY? You're warmly invited to join a free Ecological Enquiry taster session.

Experience this living practice and way of being that helps us discover the depth of relationality, complexity, and interbeing that informs us as individuals, groups, and organisations at the twice-monthly free taster sessions.

These sessions are participatory. You will be guided through different exercises and placed into small breakout groups to practise and therefore these sessions won't be suitable for people that prefer to absorb information rather than participate.

Sessions are held twice a month:

╰┈➤ First Tuesday of the month: 3-4pm UK // 4-5pm CEST.
╰┈➤ Third Tuesday of the month: 10.30-11.30am UK // 11.30am - 12.30pm CEST.

MARCH 2025: OPEN FOR EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST What is it be an ecological creature? How do we know that we are an ecological creature? What changes or activates when we adopt this story? What other local and expansive stories do we individually and collectively hold about living in this richly complex and relational multispecies, multigenerational world? And are those stories of service?

Utilising ecological enquiry, these are just some of the questions we'll be enquiring into as we explore 'being ecological' in these new enquiry circles.

Find out more about this enquiry circle and fill in your expression of interest.

 

 

MARCH 2025: CLOSED FOR EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST, NEW GROUP STARTING APRIL These action enquiry circles are looking to bring together small groups of organisational founders, leaders, and stewards so we can apply a shared gaze to the challenges and enquiries and possibilities that we meet when we start to move organisations into being more ecological.

Through combining ecological enquiry with experimental action, my hope is that we will discover new pathways forwards for each of us and our associated organisations that we would likely not find alone.

Find out more about this enquiry.

 

 

MARCH 2025: SEASON 4 STARTING IN JUNE 2025 AND OPEN FOR EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST Founded in 2023, Facilitation Pods are time-bound, small-group enquiries into what comes alive in a facilitated space, for participants and for facilitators.

In the pods, we utilse ecological enquiry to 'investigate' individual and collective experiences as faciltators in relation to cultural stories, ancestry, place, histories, systems, family dynamics, and possible futures. We have been carefully evolving the pods into a shared commons and crafting new roles as co-stewards. To support this transition, we've taken ourselves through ceremonies and rituals of letting go and arriving, appreciating and honouring.

Season 3 is full and started Autumn 2024, with 2 new pods running, a Novice Facilitators' Pod and Seasoned Facilitators' Pod.

Read more about the Facilitation Pods and share your interest in joining our next season.

 

 

COMPLETED What could a framing of 'inner rewilding' mean for our experiences of queering bodies, whether through chronic health issues or intense and unexpected health issues?

Started in March 2024, Chronic Health Issues and Inner Rewilding was a time-bound, small-group facilitated enquiry inspired by the article 12 Steps to Inner Rewilding by Thomas Klaffke. UItilising ecological enquiry, we explored becoming closer to our selves and our bodies as ecological beings, rewilding ourselves and our bodies, and what these questions mean for people navigating chronic health issues or intense and unexpected health issues.
