“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”
~Albert Einstein
What the world needs now...
Jacob Needleman's newest book, An Unknown World: Notes on the Meaning of the Earth, has the potential to transform "everything we think and believe about our world and our human life on the Earth...and our own living purpose."
We encourage you to read it — for your sake, for the sake of humanity, for the sake of the Earth.

Facilitating the art and practice of thinking differently
We partner with pioneers — people who are proactively developing the awareness, insight, and capabilities necessary for 'thinking differently' and generating positive results in today's complex and rapidly-changing world.
Our clients know that thinking differently is more than just a mental activity; more than just developing new skills and behaviors. They understand it is a whole-person process that requires they engage head, heart, and body as they enhance their capacity for:
- Developing deep awareness of self, others, and environment — including recognizing and integrating multiple ways of knowing and seeing
- Breaking through the inertia of ingrained habits and unexamined assumptions to discover new possibilities for action
- Being present to what is emerging and listening for the often subtle signals hidden amongst the noise of everyday life
- Cultivating collaborative relationships based on trust, authenticity, and integrity
- Fostering resiliency, agility, and adaptability in the midst of complexity, ambiguity, and change
- Integrating inner knowing and outer action to generate positive results
They recognize this is a lifelong journey that is different for each sojourner. They know it is sometimes difficult and is always evolving as they traverse the razor's edge between the known and unknown.
And, they appreciate that sometimes they need a little help along the way — whether it's generating a more innovative and agile perspective on a particular situation, breaking through unproductive habits, quieting the mind and being present, or developing embodied mastery.
That's where Nilara Associates enters. We offer innovative whole-person learning experiences that support these pioneers on their journey. Our pragmatic, action-learning approach, which focuses on our client's real-time challenges, enables them to generate the inner knowing and outer action that produces meaningful solutions to their current challenge and deepen their capacity for doing so in the future.
If this interests you — whether you are just beginning the journey or are an experienced sojourner — we invite you to 'surf' our website to learn more, and/or contact us.
