Face the Current

The Fall 'Yes We Can' edition of Face the Current explores the many areas we have the potential to create positive change as individuals and as our human collective. You will see that not only do we have this potential, but yes, we CAN achieve this reality because we are already doing it. This is already happening. We recognize that we are all connected, and we are all one. We have the power to shift the spotlight onto local and global exemplary individuals and organizations that show us, “yes, we can make a difference!” Get inspired by Humanitarian Filmmaker Bryn Mooser, co-founder of RYOT, who is changing the way media does storytelling. Learn about about our bodies' ability to self-heal and how we can reprogram our subconscious to achieve and manifest our desired lives. See how the Burning Man event that brings 70,000 people together from around the world can connect individuals while encouraging them to shed societal norms and live fully and present in every moment, free of judgement. Plus so much more!
