Our Christmas Gift to You: The Sensemaking Companion

Unseen content, new practices and meditations, for all the Wise Rebels

Hi everyone, 

Merry Christmas! The solstice has passed, the days are getting longer and there’s a new year ahead. We hope you have a relaxing winter holiday and a happy 2022.

As a thank you for all your support over the last year, we have a Christmas gift for everyone on our mailing list: The Sensemaking Companion. 

It’s an exhaustive free resource designed to help you explore different types of sensemaking. We’ve spent months pulling together the ideas, practices and frameworks that we’ve found essential in navigating 2021, and we’ve scoured previous sessions of our online course Sensemaking 101 to find some of the best moments with faculty like Daniel Schmachtenberger, John Vervaeke, Diane Musho Hamilton and Sara Ness. 

It also has three in-depth workbooks, and we’ve created new practices like the Salience Meditation (inspired by John Vervaeke’s work) and a comprehensive reading and resource list. Check out a preview of the intro film below to find out more. The full companion goes live on the 5th of January

If you're signed up here on our mailing list then you’ll get it automatically. If you've been sent this by a friend, or seen it on Twitter and you are not on our mailing list, you can join it here.

You may have noticed that this email is coming from a new location - Substack. This is our new home for all of our written content, and we’ve imported our existing mailing list from Mailchimp to here. It's a much better place to host all our investigations, newsletters and also our exclusive member content too.

All free subscribers will get our newsletters and regular updates on what we are up to. All existing Rebel Wisdom members should have been upgraded to a complimentary paid membership here on Substack, if you're a member and you don't have access to the member content (the posts with a little padlock on them) then let us know and we'll sort it out.

We've also transferred over all of our 100 member-only videos, interviews, discussions and all the recordings from our various live events, including past guests like Iain McGilchrist, John Vervaeke, Ayishat Akanbi, Nora Bateson, behind the scenes material with Jordan Peterson from 2017, and much more. To get access to all of those, simply become a paid subscriber here on Substack for just $5 per month.

You can also join our Digital Campfire for weekly in person events, which vary between Q&As with our guests, practice sessions with top facilitators, and also our regular Campfire Gathering where you get to meet other Rebel Wisdom members and ask questions about what's going on behind the scenes.

Coming up in January we have 'An Authentic 2022' with relating superstar Sara Ness, an all star panel on Integral with Diane Musho Hamilton, Jeff Salzman and Steve McIntosh, a special psychedelic culture panel with Jamie Wheal and Liana Gillooly, and an introduction to Somatic work with Roger Jackson. You can sign up for a year as a ‘founding member’ and get a discount here on Substack, or join monthly on Patreon.

Merry Christmas and thanks for your support.

David, Alexander and the Rebel Wisdom Team
