The Compassionate Revolution (TCR)  is an emerging university, a collaboration, a project, an evolving library, and an experiential learning forum.

​

TCR was founded by Ami Ji Schmid and enhanced by friends and colleagues, born from a shared vision for a supportive educational setting where we can (personally and collectively) evolve compassion. It's a place for:

• learning, listening more deeply, and communicating from our loving brain and heart

• strengthening our commitment toward a whole sense of Self, stepping more fully into the present, and following our higher calling

• consistently re-aligning ourselves toward an equitable and sustainable world culture that includes healing and compassion

• becoming a role model, mentor and contributor within the emerging culture of compassion

• creating compassionate writing meant to be shared with the world

 

WHY THIS? WHY NOW?

 

The realization that the world is broken has become more visible to more people and we are at a tipping point:

• pandemic(s), environmental crisis, political divide, a long-overdue increased awareness of social and racial injustice, gun violence and ongoing wars 

• all-time high levels of “diseases of despair” (addiction, depression and suicide) due to loneliness, stress, trauma and loss 

​

LET'S JOIN TOGETHER.

TOGETHER WE CAN DECIDE HOW TO MOVE FORWARD.

​​​

There is a solution, and it is housed in compassion. Compassion starts with understanding... understanding that every person has daily and accumulated stress, personal and collective trauma, large and small losses, and much to grieve. 

 

When we allow Grief to be part of our life and to become our sacred teacher, we begin to understand compassion; we begin to find the solution to calming the world's madness.

 

You are invited to be part of the solution. You are invited to join The Compassionate Revolution.

​

Participants of TCR workshops, retreats, and courses will be authentically and compassionately supported while deep diving into self-care and healing practices, and expanding our Spiritual Allyship.

 

TCR workshops, retreats and courses offer personal journeys and educational training, and are a hotbed for collaboration toward change.

​

TCR Workshops, Retreats, and Courses include:

​

• time to personalize and metabolize new material and (re)build healthy habits

• an introduction to racial and social justice practices and spiritual allyship

• ongoing opportunities to listen for your personal calling, strengths, and areas to (compassionately) heal, transform and grow

• Mindfulness and meditation practices

• opportunities to understand and practice forgiveness and radical self-acceptance

• learning and practicing clear, compassionate, non-violent and authentic communication

• ongoing, supported time and space to build trust, connections and collaboration

• the opportunity to meet Grief as Sacred Teacher

• time to document your journey 

 

The curriculums are designed to cultivate intimate, cathartic and transformational experiences and connections, and to establish a personal and shared commitment toward creating a compassionate and equitable world for all to live in. TCR Workshops, Retreats, and Courses are designed for personal and professional growth.​​
