The Garrison Institute is a diverse community, not a monolith. Each of us is positioned at the intersection of contemplative practice and engaged action in the world, where we come into contact with all kinds of inspiring teachings, new thinking, timeless wisdom, cutting-edge research, and critical insights.
In this space we are featuring different members of our community and some examples of what they’re thinking about currently, and what inspires them.
And, what inspires you?
