About Our Project

The methods of Heartprints for Humanity are grounded in the findings of science and insights from the world’s spiritual traditions, which indicate that there is a direct connection between psychological and spiritual wellbeing and the wellbeing of the world.

Each individual heart and mind matters. Each of us is important in the web of life on Earth.

We also know that all of us have the capacity to develop those qualities of clear thinking, empathy and caring. They are in our nature. And Heartprints for Humanity can help.

Our mission: change the emotional climate of the world

We have been inspired by the strategies of the Environmental Movement, which has shown us that simple actions, like changing a light bulb, can impact climate change.

We have four strategies:

1. Educate 2. Inspire 3. Empower 4. Create

1. Educate

Educate the public about the connection between individual feelings, thoughts, words and deeds and the emotional condition of the world today.

2. Inspire

Inspire people to take on the ‘task development’ of their own hearts and minds as a powerful way to improve their own lives and contribute to making the world a better place to live.

3. Empower

Empower people by providing learning opportunities, information and ideas.

4. Create

Create a forum to discover community, ask questions, share ideas, stories, resources.

Our Goal

To change the emotional climate in our individual lives, the lives of those around us and the world and by doing this create a more harmonious, sustainable world….one heartprint at a time.

“As a student of science and a number of the world’s spiritual traditions, I am bringing Heartprints to life after years of reflecting on how to integrate this knowledge into a simple, accessible way use our incredible potential, and thus to live a fully human life in a more divine way. I have been using the Heartprints for Humanity Process of feeling deeply, thinking clearly and acting wisely with individuals and groups for the past three years. Now it’s ready to share. I invite you to join us.”

Warmly,
