What is the power of numbers, in particular the power of 1001? There are ancient memories stored in the stories of 1001 Arabian Nights. Stories from Mesopotamia, Persia, Anatolia, reveal stories within stories, of catastrophes transformed to bonds of love, marriage even, and bright futures. When opportunities are created to tell a tale, lives and destinies are transformed.
During the Earth Healing Webinars in 2016, an event organised and held by Trees for Hope, a design theme emerged from two remarkable sessions ‘The Dream of Our Region’ and ‘Manifesting the Dream.’ The theme 1001 Stories emerged from our webinar as a blue-print for restorative action for the Fertile Crescent. We warmly invite you, whoever you are and wherever you may be, to become an active member and commit to 1001 Earth Healing Acts of your own choosing to make a difference. Your 1001 acts may just change your life and change the world. Our hope is that we will navigate away from the trajectory of civilisations collapse to a more beautiful and interconnected world we dreamed of. 1001 Earth Healing Acts is organised by Trees for Hope. |

Keeping hope alive. Opportunities for youth education and sustainable living and lively exchange in our bio-region. Local and global mass actions for justice for all beings More connection between people and between people and land…. more holistic designs and better arrangement of natural resources and less setbacks by scarcity and conflict over resources. We have completely new leaders, and types of leadership in the world. Petroleum is no longer needed. Our millionth member joined …there are similar groups around. There are beautiful and very clever young people who just have an example and they copy and improve and there are other groups doing similar things all in our region and in the world. A new language is arising so we understand each other and it's not just the language between people, it is also between humans and animals, between humans and trees. So we all understand each other, so we gain an idea of this wholeness. That we are just one, not separate beings. We align ourselves with life, re-enter the big cycle of life and take it in a humble way, that’s our position. We have a lot to learn from nature, especially when stepping out of scarcity thinking. We have the knowledge and have created autonomous, decentralised, communities based on love and trust between each other. We become stewards of our water, food, energy and sustainable community. We learned that healing earth and rewilding nature in the Fertile Crescent is a great opportunity to do all of the above. People can change their situation, if we feel each other. A shift in human perspective, a remembrance of our humble place in nature. A remembrance of our belonging to nature. We have eco-communities in rural setting and they are healing nourishing and protecting their environment. More environmentally conscious people in cities are working for rights of nature, as a part of living rights. Water is flowing freely between our nations. Our emotions are flowing so we can hear and hold each other. We are facing and living in regenerative cultures, regenerative agriculture, circular economy, healthy economy. Everyone knows about EDEs, and the Gaia education. We can really hear and respect all the being, kind of interspecies communication. We hear the animals and the land and know how to respond to the land in a healing way. Our understanding of our bio-region is really spreading throughout our region. We are growing spiritually and have learned to put our love into the earth, into practice, in our communities and all our relations. We are practising how to to heal, to recognise the pain, to recognise the problem and also to recognise our ability as human beings to be steward of life and give intention of healing … we are here as cosmic beings in a journey to reconnect with the divine. |
