Vita Sapien Wakening Programs seek to inculcate a powerful awareness and empathy for our Living Planet and a recognition of our rightful place in it.
Wakening Programs are one of Vita Sapiens tools for Fostering Mass-Ecophany.
An important element of a Wakening Program is to get the undivided attention of the recipient, so that they are not distracted.
In this way, we can build up an experience that triggers emotional responses that open the way to spiritual augmentation. Some Wakening Programs are planned as audio/visual experiences, others are in-person in the environment.
Using scientific analytical tools, the Wakening Programs will be assessed for efficacy in the key performance indicator: fostering radical pro-environmental behavior change.
Listed below are some of the Wakening Programs under development. Others are planned.
