the tenderheart principle

what is the tenderheart principle?

IT IS THE PERCEPTION THAT TENDERNESS AND COMPASSION ARE FAR MORE POWERFUL THAN THE FORCES OF BRUTALITY AND IGNORANCE.

IT IS DESIGNED TO CO-CREATE A WORLD THAT NO LONGER INHERITS PATTERNS OF SCARCITY AND HARM BUT DECONSTRUCTS THEM WITH GENERATIVE PATTERNS OF ABUNDANCE AND COHERENCY.

this principle as a concept is:

A space for multiple forms of expression and connection within community. It is a space for cultivating STEWARDSHIP, Empathy, Trust, Collaboration, Personal Growth, and the dynamics of Emergence.

​As a community-scaled HUB it would function with:

  • transparency in lateral decision-making and finances

  • Provide support for transformative cultures while maintaining local nuance, consent, and heritage.

  • function as a space for hosting peer-to-peer processes of Conciliation, Reconciliation, Reparations, and Landback.

  • Use council practices of deep listening 

  • empathy motivated hosting + leadership 

  • interested in transparent + replicable social dynamics

  • committed to Regulate its growth the same as plants do, using the fibonacci ratio as a check-in process during scalability and succession.

  • peer-to-peer networks and patronage

  • feature commons amenities for Art, music, performances, workshops, lectures, studios, sound baths, and courses

  • pay-it-forward dynamics

  • regenerative principles

  • Transition + Climate Resiliency measures

  • zero waste and cradle-to-cradle operations

  • environmental installations

  • co-working spaces + playscapes

  • Self-Care and holistic healing environments

The commons space would aim to foster a momentum of belonging, community enrichment, and innovation to incentivize and garner traction for the stewardship of our economies, ecologies, and societies. 

The goal of this program is to:

  • Facilitate community scaled experiences designed towards local-meets-global care.

  • Foster ideas, equity, and beneficial experiences through a “mycelial network” of communities; Each community acting with sovereignty, active solidarity, and within a framework of global unity.

  • Cultivate environments, strategies, practices, and decisions related to the collective stewardship of people and planet.

  • Eventually provide its own obsolescence. Understanding that thought is cyclical and evolving in constant change.
