"Humans should connect closer to nature, because it is our Human Nature, and Together we should be more kind, because we are Mankind." (author unknown)

The Gaia Theory, named after the Greek goddess of the earth, was hypothesized by James Lovelock in 1970s.  The Gaia theory states that Earth and all it’s physical components create a complex, self-regulating system.  “The biggest context of interacting, interdependent living entities is the earth” (Lovelock).  In other words, Earth is one single organism.  It maintains its homeostasis through interactions in all levels on the planet from the atmosphere, lithosphere and other spheres, to the individual lives of plants, animals and humans.  The Earth is an organic macrocosmic model for all life. 

The Gaia Movement is an undertaking by individuals and groups all over the world who share a concern about humans’ relation and treatment of the Earth who are mobilizing to make the world more sustainable.  These organizations, conscious leaders, and compassionate volunteers act as the Earth’s immune system to combat or balance all the destructive forces that threaten our global civilization and terrestrial home. 

Gaian Path is a naturalist paradigm synthesizing environmental, spiritual, and community-oriented values that guide our project to illuminate this sacred movement. 

“Healing the wounds of the earth and its people does not require saintliness or a political party, only gumption and persistence.  It is not a liberal or conservative activity; it is a sacred act.  It is a massive enterprise undertaken by ordinary citizens everywhere, not by self appointed governments or oligarchies.” (Blessed Unrest,  Paul Hawken).

and this poem by our friend Victor Pinchot


Welcome to your existence, 
You are on this planet, in your body,
Breathing, dreaming, smiling.

I wish you and all, 
A beautiful new beginning, 
A place in which you feel whole, 
Where you can safely be you, 
Realize your destiny, 
Meet your highest vibration, 
Open to your full potential. 

This year, you will have some opportunities, 
You can engage in them, 
Take a step, a big step, 
And create the reality that is meant for you, 
You can affirm that you are you, 
And when you do, 
Everyone loves you, 
Because we all love you, 
As you are.

There is no more time for hiding, 
Tempering your brightness, 
The light is in you!

Being consciously choosing every step, 
Creating a path that empowers and energizes you, 
Is what I wish for you. 

We live in a world full of resources, 
Abundance is for us to celebrate, 
in Joy and Gratefulness.

The main thing we may lack, 
Is feeling complete, 
I invite you to bring awareness, 
Peace and the beauty of creation, 
In your life, in every step. 

No one knows more what is best for you than you, 
Feel inside, 
And embrace your self, 
This is what is meant to be, 

No more running away from deeper meaning, 
No more alienation from fears, 
Step into your superpowers, 
Love and kindness to all beings. 

We all have addictions, 
But we all have the choice to heal, 
And to live 
The life we are meant to live. 
In the best world ever. 

When you engage in that path, it feels so good, you might actually levitate, 
Eat the best food, have the best thoughts, 
You deserve the best
And the best is gentleness.

Know yourself and the world, 
Do what is good for you, 
Not what you think is good, 
What you know is GOOD. 

You are a divine creature, 
It took millions of years to create the world as we know it, 
Love it, 
Love you, 
This is what I wish you today. 

As I love myself, I love you, 

Me and all, we are one.
