Conscious Culture &
Co-Creation
We believe in each human being's innate power to create, to live attuned to spirit and in-sync with the natural world, and the right of all individuals and communities to live in this way. Much of the knowledge and wisdom that supports these abilities and life-ways has been suppressed, condemned, and outlawed by colonial powers, in service of a world order focused on domination and control. We serve the awakening of humanity's latent capacities that enable us to live and co-create in harmony with all of life.
What is conscious culture?
conscious culture intentionally upholds harmony and harmonious relations between beings and elements of place. conscious culture is rooted in practical spiritual understanding of reality. it necessitates individual and collective presence - conscious awareness of self, other, environment, and the spiritual energy that permeates all things.
What is conscious co-creation?
conscious co-creation is moving in awakened, attuned alignment with spirit, working with source energy to make, build, change and create in the physical world. it necessitates a working understanding of the unseen forces that influence the physical. it is akin to ekhart tolle’s “awakened action.”
daolabs framework for conscious evolution
the more we heal, the more space we create for expansion. the daolabs framework supports individual, social, cultural and spiritual evolution. by exploring and strengthening our capacities in each of the three pillars - imagination, enchantment, and agency - we will grow the skills and nurture the state of being needed to co-create a more harmonious, joyful, and just world.

> imagination
through expanded awareness, we grow our capacity to imagine and experience alternatives to current realities. we widen our sense of what is possible and open to alternatives. with discernment, we vision and fuel new collective expressions, creating pathways for cultural evolution.
> enchantment
awakening compassion and subtle awarenesses brings recognition of the innate life in all things. we attune to rhythms and cycles of the natural world, growing clarity of what harmony-in-action looks like, systems intelligence, divine spiritual intelligence, and the interconnection of all things.
> agency
expanded sense of time and space sharpens our knowledge of who we are, when we are, where we are, and what is ours to do. we surrender to our refined vision and passion as agents of impact within our private lives and communities, empowering ourselves to contribute our unique signature to the unfolding.

daolabs aims to explore alternative ways and narratives within society, business, and the marketplace for the purpose of instilling harmonious, imaginative and life-affirming values and practices into our communities. Aligned with these values, we see our work as seeds of conscious culture, and move and design with this intention. We are developing a network of partners exploring research, ideation, creation and application across key topics and domains, who share learnings and insights through various initiatives, projects, mediums and channels.
