The Garrison Institute Presents: The Common Good

Such a beautiful podcast, full of wonderful insights. It is healing for the mind and soul in a time when kindness and bigger thinking is needed for a way forward. It leaves me feeling more curious and optimistic. Thank you, Jonathan.

I feel so nourished intellectually and spiritually listening to some of these talks. These ideas are the seeds of a future where life can thrive

Despite not being able to fully comprehend all the concepts being shared - this podcast feels like someone trying to explain to me the secrets of the universe, with patience love and understanding, minus the psychedelics and weird cult vibes. Scientists, researchers, doctors, professors and other scholars explain how trees are a community that talk, learn and help each other, how quantum science helps explain the self, ego and how we are all connected, and many more mind blowing revelations. If you are looking to understand the universe in a way that connects to the deepest part of you and all beings - with hope, clarity and calmness - I would recommend the podcast.

Thank you so much for these thoughtful and informative interviews. I especially enjoyed the interview with Suzanne Simard mentioning her book, Finding The Mother Tree. I recently read that book and it was inspirational. So grateful that I have found your podcast. In these times of societal and environmental upheaval ideas you are presenting are important to keep us moving toward the possibility of our whole selves connected with every animal, every tree every environment and all humans as one.
