Reaping Our Natures' Harvest: An Autumn Day of Conscious Community
Theme Quote: "With the “green” gone, the other colors that have been there all along — the magical reds, golds, and oranges — begin to express themselves. That’s the secret: there is no turning, no changing. There’s only the death of what has been masking the colors inside. The beauty has been there all along. And we as human beings are like this. Each one of us contains hidden jewels inside."
— OMID SAFI, a columnist for On Being

Who is KCC?
KCC is an open community of passionate people who are attuned to Spirit. We uplift and support each other to act for enlightened change in ourselves and in the world.
Through connection, exploration, and deep conversation, we learn from each other and gain insights that lead each of us to embody inspired action, resulting in sustainable and caring relationships with each other, our families, organizations, communities, and our planet. We are an organization of people who choose to be conscious of spirit in our work and in our lives. We gather periodically to celebrate and nurture our personal, professional, and spiritual growth.
KCC Beginnings
KCC grew out of a conviction that the spiritual principles and practices taught by the Kripalu Center for Yoga and Health in Lenox, MA, should be spread far and wide in our culture, particularly in the business community. As a result of a conference on Spirit in the Workplace hosted by Kripalu in 1993, a small group of attendees decided to begin meeting several weekends a year to explore these ideas and put them into practice in their consulting businesses. They called themselves the Kripalu Consultants’ Collaborative, later shortened to KCC. We began meeting in January, 1994.
