Regeneration Begins Within.
Joysong Collective supports individuals and organizations in more fully integrating spirit, joy & aliveness into everyday work-life-service.
We are experimenting with new/ancient organizational, financial, and psycho-spiritual tools to support (y)our life's work in service of our planet’s regeneration.

What if responsible tech requires invoking the ancestors?
What if climate adaptation means asking the land what it wants?
Trees Older Than Us
listening to our more beautiful future

The first thing you hear is the chanting. Then crying. And finally the voice of a child, or maybe it’s a grown adult, stuttering through a story that’s never been spoken aloud. The storyteller’s body is contorted with the sheer vulnerability of the moment, seemingly held together by the steadfast faces forming a circle around the candle-lit room.

Joysong Collective 2023
Before a single desk or office chair, we potted bonsai trees and redwoods in the sunny atrium of the new space. We knew our rooted friends would grow with us, anchor us in their slower tones, and, importantly, beckon us towards life beyond any one of us. We partnered with Milky Way Radio to place electrodes on their leaves, creating a ‘singing forest’ of ambient music from their pulsing biochemical rhythms. And we knelt in humble gratitude to be in co-creation with the living earth. . .
