How do I connect with other spiritual innovators?

The best way to get a sense of who else is working in the field of spiritual innovation is to explore directories, networks, and communities that introduce you to practitioners across areas of interest, and around the world. You might start with the directory on this website and look for folks who have tags that relate to your focus: culture, healing, technology, justice, or something else. Or, search for people in your country or region, or who share your religious tradition! Make sure to add your own information, too, so others can find you. 

You can also learn about Black, Indigenous, and other People of Color (BIPOC) spiritual innovators in the United States in this directory, and check out their great work in this short video. 

Or if you’re a spiritual caregiver, check out this site from Chaplaincy Innovation Lab to see a wide spectrum of chaplains working across the United States in a variety of settings. There are also often great sources of knowledge and connection at local universities or other civic institutions, like the Center for Religion and Civic Culture at the University of Southern California, for example

Finally, check out newsletters and social media from spiritual innovators who write about the questions you care about, like Connective Tissue on social connection and community, or social media profiles like Tricia Hersey’s Nap Ministry on spiritual resilience and rest.

So wherever you are, do some research through existing networks to get a first impression of who else is out there working on what you care about.

Frontier Journalists' Network

International group of editorial professionals covering the science of spirituality, consciousness & other natural phenomena. The Frontier Journalists' Network is on a mission to make it easier for the press to cover the science of spirituality, consciousness and other natural phenomena. We do this by creating content that educates professional content creators on newsworthy developments (from Near-Death Experiences and telepathy to UFOs and mediumship, psychedelics and remote healing), primers on how to cover these topics, and watching how balanced (or not) the mainstream media is doing with their coverage. We also help those in the research community -- academics, scientists and practitioners -- learn how to engage positively with the media. We are excited to connect with other writers, editors, podcasters, broadcasters, filmmakers, and others who are covering these exciting topics.
