Lately I’ve been wondering if many of us are carrying a quiet knowing beneath the performance of being “fine.”

A knowing that something in us wants to change.
Not through another productivity hack, another course, another identity to wear online.
But through actually sitting with life again.
With grief.
With uncertainty.
With beauty.
With the body.
With the questions we keep delaying.

Ceremonies of Remembering was born from that wondering.

Not as a place of answers, but as a place to slow down enough to hear what has been trying to reach us beneath the noise.

A space for conversation, ritual, reflection, honesty, learning, unlearning, and the strange tenderness of becoming human together again.

The next season opens soon.
If something in your chest quietly whispered “yes” while reading this…

Stay near. 🌿

Sometimes I wonder how much of adulthood is just becoming a highly refined version of who we needed to be to survive. The intelligent self. The desirable self. The emotionally regulated self. The successful self. After a while the performance stops feeling like performance and starts feeling like identity.

Lately I’ve been noticing how schooling, capitalism, masculinity, social media, even “healing culture,” all reward certain versions of ourselves while quietly distancing us from aliveness. Even authenticity has become aesthetic now. Curated vulnerability. Performative rawness. Branded humanity.

And honestly, I’ve been noticing this in myself too.

So maybe de-cloaking begins with a difficult question: how much of my personality emerged from aliveness, and how much emerged from adaptation? 🌒

If this speaks to something you’ve been feeling, drop a 🌒 below. We’ll send through details for the next season of Ceremonies of Remembering with Reimagined Learning Community opening in August.

Many parents say they want freedom for their children. But freedom is easy to desire when it remains abstract. What happens when a child no longer obeys the hidden rhythms of school? When curiosity interrupts productivity? When learning spills outside measurable outcomes? When the child becomes strange to the systems that once made adults feel safe? Perhaps this is the deeper tension inside unschooling.

Many adults are reaching toward forms of aliveness they themselves were never permitted to inhabit, trying to recognize a future their own bodies were not trained to see. Maybe the work is not raising “free children.” Maybe the work is becoming less afraid of relationship, uncertainty, interdependence, slowness, and lives that cannot be fully controlled. 🌿

Maybe the crisis is not that we have become disconnected from nature.

Maybe the crisis is that we have become fluent in relationship through utility.

Useful people.
Useful land.
Useful conversations.
Useful bodies.

And so we arrive to the world asking:
“What can this do for me?”
instead of
“What does this relationship ask of me?”

A few weeks ago, at Jones Farm in Bosmont / Maraisburg, we witnessed a different grammar breathing beneath the city. Compost where there was dumping. Pollinators where there was neglect. Food growing in the cracks of abandonment.

Not a fantasy of purity.
Not a return to some romantic past.

Just a quiet but radical insistence that another way of relating is still possible. 🌱

Perhaps regeneration is not only about restoring soil.
Perhaps it is also about restoring sensitivity.

Gratitude to Jones Farm, Emandulo, and the companions journeying through What the Land Might Mean by Learning for reminding us that the land still speaks… even through concrete. 🌍

We built entire economies that poison the air… then hand out inhalers, air purifiers, and wellness podcasts like consolation prizes.

Maybe the climate crisis is not only about emissions.
Maybe it is about the normalization of disconnection.

A world where children know brand logos better than bird songs.
Where exhaustion is worn like status.
Where clean air feels like privilege instead of a basic condition for being alive.

And maybe unlearning begins the moment we stop asking, “How do we keep this system running?”
and start asking,
“What kind of nervous system does this way of living produce?” 🌬️

A few weeks ago, the classroom smelled like compost, smoke, wild herbs, and possibility. 🌿

We visited Jones Farm in / , where what was once a dumping site is slowly being re-membered into an ecology of relation: food growing beside rubble, bees humming where neglect once settled, seeds carrying futures the concrete had almost forgotten.

There was something quietly profound about witnessing regeneration in the inner city. Not as aesthetic. Not as performance. But as devotion.

Our journey through What the Land Might Mean by Learning has often carried us toward forests, rivers, open skies, and ancestral soil. But here, the land spoke through traffic, brick walls, dust, improvisation, and community. As if whispering: I have not abandoned the city. I am still trying to grow through it.

Maybe this too is part of the curriculum.

To notice that the land does not only speak in untouched places. Sometimes it speaks through resilience. Through those willing to compost what the world has discarded. Through hands willing to stay in relationship with wounded ground long enough for life to return.

Deep gratitude to Emandulo, Jones Farm, The Land Story, and all the participants journeying with us through What the Land Might Mean by Learning. Thank you for helping us remember that regeneration is not somewhere else. Sometimes it begins right here, in the places we were taught to stop looking. 🐝🌱

Four moons complete. Two offerings. One deeper remembering.

What Patriarchy Steals became a 4-week ritual of accountability and awareness. The Great Unlearning became an 8-week collective ceremony of remembering. Neither arrived as a course to consume, but as spaces to listen, soften, notice, and return.

Across these offerings, something became clear: we are not here to become better performers of life. We are here to become more alive inside it.

If something in you is stirring, come closer. The next cycle of offerings from Reimagined Learning Community is beginning to whisper. We’re listening for collaborators, co-dreamers, quiet disruptors, and those ready to remember with us.

DM REMEMBER or reach out to walk with the next cycle.

“But how will they learn??”
The thing is… we never stop learning.
Here’s Aya Kush, learning how to make a s’more for the very first time guided by one of the fathers in our community.
Learning through warmth, presence, fire, and sweetness.
This is education too.

Weaving song, movement and land into conversation — we invite you into a brief glimpse of elders and learners sharing wisdom. These moments show how we learn through listening, doing and belonging. Watch the teaser and discover the full story on our site: https://wix.to/Yr5hD7n 🌿🎶✨

We unlearn together — one classroom habit at a time. 🌿

Where assessment once meant scores, we now listen for growth; our camps and online courses show how portfolios and conversations spark curiosity and confidence in learners. Where instruction was a monologue, we invite dialogue — children lead projects, parents observe transformation, and teachers become co-explorers.

These small shifts make room for agency, relationship, and wonder in South African classrooms and homes. Visit us to see practical examples and resources for parents and teachers. https://wix.to/Bgu6OkQ

Join the conversation — what habit will you unlearn next? ✨
