The Eight Shields Model - Sustainable Living Project As a part of building community and living in an environment where all things are rhythmically and intricately interwoven, I have come to use Jon Young's Eight Shields Model as a way to organize groups of people and promote understanding of the energetics of life, both between humans themselves and in nature in general. Depending on how things go in our group, and if people are interested, we could use that model in our interactions. Here is an article I wrote about my understanding of this model. Origin and Credits The 8 Shields Model was formulated by Jon Young, co-founder of Wilderness Awareness School. Intentions Jon Young describes himself as a social engineer. The power of the 8 Shields Model is that it can be used toward two main goals. On the other hand, the model can also be used to promote personal growth. The Eight Shields Model Depending on needs and number of participants, the 8 Shields Model can be somewhat rearranged. Archetypal energies · Inspiration · Illumination · Energy
Peer-to-Peer Learning Handbook | Peeragogy.org Windhorse Farm Windhorse Farm is an interdependent web of service to the land and to human communities. In particular, it is a provider of opportunity and methods supporting people in their natural impulse to connect with nature and with their own hearts and minds. It is a container protecting and holding space for open and relaxed conversation and learning. In particular, it is a space for coming to understand and experience the vastness and profundity of ones own and others’ cultural traditions and connections with the land. Within the undisturbed natural landscape, this is a perfect place to hold your meeting, celebration or group retreat. Perhaps most strikingly, Windhorse is a 170 year-old demonstration of a “social enterprise” — charitable activity living in interwoven harmony and mutual support with related for-profit enterprises. Historical context The Mi’kMaq and their ancestors protected the place known as Windhorse Farm for 11,000 years before the European invasion 400 years ago.
