In Hekate we’re strongly focusing on the digital aspects of the different areas of life, too. We approach ageing, mental health, work, personal fulfilment, social life and community, and even sustainability through our digital lenses. Why? Because we do live in a digital era that requires us to intentionally and critically reflect on and actContinue reading “Community check – this how well we are digitally”

Leny 80 – Those Whose Footsteps I Want to Follow
Lighthouses. They live among us. Perhaps they lack lanterns, but their smiles, their words, their entire beings radiate energy, joy of life, and a desire to live. They appear as relatives, neighbours, or as teachers, and though often not consciously acknowledged in our daily lives, they wield a significant impact on us. Sometimes they becomeContinue reading “Leny 80 – Those Whose Footsteps I Want to Follow”
Conscious Ageing Club – Will robots care for us?

UnfOlding – We worden allemaal ouder
Een tweedaagse workshop in de LekPoort Vianen over ouder worden We worden ouder dan ooit. En oud worden is toch een beetje een taboe onderwerp.

CONSCIOUSLY DIGITAL
We live in a digital age empowered by technology, with all its benefits and challenges. We are all doing our best to cope with(in) it, but are we READY to thrive? Just like paying attention to what we eat, who we surround ourselves with, how we rest or how we practice sport to increase our quality of life, building and maintaining our digital spaces consciously is a dominant factor when it comes to our and our communities’ needs and satisfaction. Do you also feel the need to stop, reflect and improve?
You probably wonder if you and your target groups are using the right tools to manage the “shadow sides” of Social Media (such as cyber-bullying, digital addiction, info overload); if you effectively cope with the technical challenges (such lack of digital literacy or fake news); or maybe if your on-line community is barrier-free or ethical. It’s never easy to dedicate time to reflect on how to support the needs of the diverse people you work with.
Different organisations, different challenges. We might thrive in some areas and we might struggle in other ones. We are coaches and educators specialised in the digital consciousness. With the CONSCIOUSLY DIGITAL programme we want to create a space for reflecting and building digital consciousness and actions focusing on your organisation’s needs.
