I have been a member of the spiritual cinema circle for two years. I absolutely love this membership club. For those of you unfamiliar with the circle, it is a monthly movie club where you receive a featured film (usually 1 ½ – 2 hours long) plus 2 to 3 short films (10 – 25 minutes long). The movies are spiritual not religious. They make you feel good. They make you stop and reflect upon your own life. Spiritual Cinema Circle is a division of Gaiam.
After each film, Stephen Simon has a discussion with a producer or director from one of the films plus a featured guest about the movies. Afterwards, there are a few reflective questions for you to ponder about how it relates to your own life.
Four or five months ago, I received a newsletter from Spiritual Cinema Circle asking if any member would be interested in being a featured guest. Delighted, I sent them an email telling them I was interested.
Well, about five weeks ago, I received email from the Circle inviting me on the show! I was so excited, I quickly said yes! I didn’t know what it would entail; I just knew that I wanted to on the show. This forum has always inspired me and I would encourage you to check out their program.
My experience was overwhelmingly positive; from travel arrangements, to the filming, and finally a private tour of Gaiam’s headquarters. What I saw at their location was as inspiring as the movies they distribute. Walking through the hallways I felt the energy of those that worked there and the mission that they collectively work on. Check out my other blogs to see the pictures from the filming and to see the pics from the tour.
I left Colorado with a natural high. Some of you might attribute it to the altitude but I know it was the inspiration I received from Gaiam. From their company garden to their work room environment, this is what I envision my own company to grow up to be like. Gaiam is the real deal – environmentally conscious, forward thinking, and with a passionate desire to change the world to be a better place.
