I'm Jane Brunette.

THIS IS AN INVITATION to become a flamingseed: one who uses challenging conditions to blossom rather than burn. For inspiration, I comb the streets — not to mention the forests and villages, as well as the contemplative and mystical traditions — for insights, spiritual practices and visionary ideas on cultivating a loving, generative world view regardless of circumstances. And I question cultural and spiritual assumptions so that we can open fresh to these changing times with curiosity, innocence and a sense of adventure.

Become a flamingseed.

Use challenging conditions to blossom rather than burn.​

PRIVATE SESSIONS
​These sessions are valuable if you want to deepen and enliven your spiritual journey, drawing on fresh sources of inspiration to invigorate your spiritual life and your soul's expression.
CIRCLES & RETREATS
I currently offer circles and immersions in meditation, writing and spiritual practice via Zoom. I also offer individualized retreats via Zoom or phone for writers and spiritual seekers. 
BOOKS & WRITING
​I write as part of my spiritual practice and guide others to do the same. Here is a bit about my approach to writing from the soul, along with a selection of books I've written as part of my spiritual practice.

Want to really change the world?
Try shaking off your social conditioning. 

A few years ago, I had a vivid dream that the world would end on a specific date, nine months away. This might sound like a nightmare, but the effect on me was just the opposite. In the middle of taking in this news, I had an insight: if the world is ending — and all of human life with it — I can’t end social injustice or save the white dolphins from extinction. There’s no time for any of us to reach our so-called full potential. I might as well drop all my stories about what I need to do and all my earnest agendas for what needs to happen in the world.
​There just isn’t time for that.
