We Are The Economy
We would like to have an economy which acts in a meaningful way, which produces wholesome products and which supports the mental well-being and development of society. We would like to participate in economic life as human beings: free and compassionate.
How can we act economically – meaningfully without denying our needs, without burning out? Is an ethical economy possible, one that can offer us protection and direction? How can we contribute to waking up the economy and the people working in this field? How can we wake ourselves up?
Through the continuous practice of mindfulness we can build a field of consciousness in which enables us to recognize the motivation for and the consequences of our economic actions, e.g. in our field of work, our consumption and in our dealings with money and property.
