Reframing Mental distress as a potential catalyst for positive change

What a ride, we made it to 5!

Since Emerging Proud launched across 14 locations in 12 countries on 12th May 2017, together we’ve achieved all of this amazing stuff as a community:

• Producing a collaborative film, with personal stories, music and artwork donated by members
• Initiating the International Spiritual Emergence Network (ISEN)
• Hosting multiple conferences across the globe each year
• We’ve published a total of 8 books, 6 of which were published by our own not-for-profit publishing company, Emerging Proud Press, founded in 2019
• Given away over 500 free copies of the Emerging Proud through… Pocket Books of Hope with the proceeds from books you bought
• Contributed to the Power Threat Meaning Framework, who are developing a ‘pattern’ dedicated to Spiritual Emergence, in order that it can be recognised and supported more appropriately

PHEW! That’s not bad going considering we’ve done all this with very little funding – what this shows, is that if we come together and believe, anything is possible. By ‘we’, I mean ‘us’, the EP community. None of this would have been possible without YOU. Thank you, so much.

So what’s next for Emerging Proud?

In all honesty, I don’t know, and I think that’s the best way…it’s time to let the toddler walk free.

This movement has its own momentum and I want it to be owned by all of us. So please, take it, care for it as you would a toddler – impart your wisdom, help it to grow.

Together we’ve emerged and have our own role to play in this great unfolding, what a time to be alive – this is no time for hiding in closets!

Happy Emerging Proud day to us all!

“We slash and burn the ancient forests of the Earth, and in doing so we erode the sacramental connection to the Tree of Life” 

The Restorative Spirit

Humanity has the wisdom to co-create an improved future, but it will take a radical shift in our ways of relating to each other, other species and the natural world if we are to survive and thrive. A process of death-rebirth is needed to break free from the ecocide that dominates the modern era. The Restorative Spirit explores a mythic-sacred relationship to life, which is powerfully illustrated via our deep connection to trees. We have failed to understand that the destruction of the rainforests is also severing us from the Tree of Life, which seeds a soulful relationship to all life.

we would not be living as we are today”

This soulful manual reaches into the sacred heart of humanity, inviting us to open up to spiritual inspiration, compassion, kindness, love, charity and justice. This is a soul-centred book that expands our mystical ways of knowing, being, doing and belonging.

“The Great Work begins when we awaken to the sacredness in our hearts, souls, nature and the cosmos”

The Restorative Spirit

Due to the multiple crises that are now enveloping the world, humanity has arrived at a critical point in its developmental journey. The Restorative Spirit is an essential guidebook to help our species engage the wisdom and compassion needed to navigate the potentials and perils that lie before us. The ‘Great Work’ in these transitional and tumultuous times will involve the actualisation of our collective potential to progress our souls and evolve psycho-spiritually. Humanity is more than capable of participating in a process of collective transformation, which can inspire us to realign with the divine.

The prophets did not hide from their emotional states, so why should you and I?

This Pocket book, the 6th in the ‘#Emerging Proud through…’ series, has been a real journey.

As a team, culturally divided, we have cried, got frustrated on numerous occasions, celebrated differences, but most importantly we have found a depth of connection and created bridges through shared vulnerability and acknowledging the pain that we experience as a human race, irrelevant of religion.

The Muslim team have been an incredible inspiration, and their dedication has seen the birth of a new venture for their future:

Chapters of Solace

Chapters of Solace was birthed and inspired from the Emerging Proud KindaProud Book series, #Muslims Emerging Proud through Mental Health distress. This groundbreaking book aims to break the silence, taboo, and stigma in Muslim communities around mental health issues, providing a platform to share recovery stories and give hope and inspiration to our friends, families, and communities. The name Chapters of Solace is derived from Chapters representing the Surahs from the Holy Quran, in particular chapter 12 (Surah Yusuf) and Solace in the hope of finding tranquillity.

The Quran very clearly shows us that feeling our emotions is a foundational step to vulnerability. We believe that in the Muslim community, we need to stop incorrectly correlating complicated feelings with ingratitude. Someone can be feeling intense pain and still be grateful.

#Emerging Proud champions the potential catalyst of crises – find out how the Contributors of this book used their experiences of adversity to empower change in their lives…

There is too much evidence to ignore the fact that we are amidst a global emergency, but there is a more hopeful way to frame this, not as a doomed end for humanity as we know it, but as the seed of a new world emerging…
