  • I write and speak about ‘being’ with considerable frequency. Sometimes I refer to "my being", or to "your being" or just to "being" itself. In all my writing, though, I’ve never directly answered the question, "What is Being?" Martin Heidegger wrote a book that is 610 pages long to address the question: Being and Time. It is almost the definition of a tome. I prefer Merleau-Ponty’s book, Phenomenology of Perception, which I’m reading now, and which is four pages shorter. I’m going to address the same question with something less ambitious: two paragraphs. It may not stand as a classic in the field, but it might prove helpful to those with an interest in my work. To read my take, please click the link in the bio (even though it’s only two paragraphs, it was too long for Instagram), and let me know what you think!
  • Heading off this morning to Traverse City for a weekend workshop hosted by @cat.stocker at @leafandlakestudio. I’ve heard so much about how beautiful it is and I’m really looking forward to sharing the work there. Still a few spots available if you’re in the neighbourhood! 🌳🌏😍
  • “Everything depends on everything else.” This is in a room with ancient totem poles where life nestles within life, and every connected form supports every other.
  • "So consider for a moment what it might mean not merely to see with your eyes, but to feel the sights of the world in your body. Or not merely to hear with your ears, but to feel the sounds of the world in the core of your being, subtly attuning you to the Present. When the body ‘knows the world’ in this way, it is not relying on the abstractions of language: its knowing is nonverbal, unmediated and direct. Its thinking is sensational. The flesh is experienced as a medium that resonates not only to the world around it, but at the same time to every current of your thinking—conscious and preconscious. As you increasingly honor the body’s sensations, you increasingly understand them to constitute a language of thought that is distinct from how the head knows. What the body knows is based on a patient clarity that enables you to act from the whole of your being. But that knowing is inaccessible—and may as well not exist—when it’s been eclipsed by the driven, anxiety-laced, contracted intelligence of the head." - from Radical Wholeness, by Philip Shepherd Get the first chapter free at https://philipshepherd.com/radical-wholeness-the-book/ or check out the audiobook (or physical book) at Amazon http://amzn.to/2sHSeRx or your favourite bookseller!

  • Looking forward to seeing Jeff Gibbs’ doc, 'Planet of the Humans'. Watch on YouTube this little video clip that eloquently expresses something I’ve written about in both of my books: technology cannot save us; the delicate weave of life on which we depend is being undone by our divided, consuming, disconnected way of being. And what currently cements our way of being is our top-down relationship with the body. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ySFlJnFTuU #radicalwholeness #michaelmoore
  • I’m on the west coast next month for two workshops - one in Seattle and another in Olympia hosted by @mollygracegilmore We’ve got room in both but they’re filling up. If you’re interested I’d love to see you there! #radicalwholeness
