September 25-27, 2026

The Anthroposophical Societies Prison Outreach Walkathon weekend is just 2 weeks away! Beginning Friday the 25^th through Sunday the 27^th September, there will be walkers, cyclists and runners across the country taking to the outdoor trials. We hope this year there will be a walker(s) in your Branch community; there is still time to join in. Perhaps your community will be hosting a Michaelmas gathering and a group of you may walk together! We would love for a few of you to join in!!

If you are able go to the Campaign page linked here and press the ‘Create a Fundraising Page’ button to become a walker. We will watch for anyone new on the Campaign page and will reach out to help get a photo up if needed. Or if you prefer, we can get your entire personal page up from this end – just let us know by email or a call.

This year, some of our walkers will be joining us from prison. It is inspiring to receive the many writings by prisoners who are participating; thinking how each book read and studied inspires new knowledge and growth. Here is a man named Gabriel, who will be joining our Walk-a-thon from Hondo, TX:

I’m seeking to understand the esoteric path. Anthroposophy helps me by sending books to expand some of my interests. I get to see into people…spiritually…and feel realms as well. 

I will be walking at least two and a half miles to class, the chow hall, and the chapel over the walk-a-thon week-end. Please sponsor my walk for APO. Thank you for your support!

Live Oak Medicine
North Berkeley / Albany, CA
Start Date: October 1, 2026

18–21 hours/week
Mon/Tues/Thurs
$28–32/hour 

I am an anthroposophic and osteopathic physician seeking a warm, capable, and highly organized person to join my small medical practice as a Part-Time Office Manager.

Because of the nature of the practice, I am especially interested in finding someone who has a connection to Anthroposophy/Waldorf education, osteopathy, homeopathy, herbal medicine, or related work, and who feels at home with the values that arise from these traditions.

Our approach to medicine places importance not only on what we do, but on how we do it. We value slowing down, being present, listening carefully, treating each person with openness, dignity, and respect, and creating an environment in which people feel genuinely seen and cared for.

About the Role

The position combines patient care coordination, medical office administration, and practical oversight of the office itself. It requires someone who enjoys both people and details—someone who can warmly greet a child or elderly patient, patiently help someone with a scheduling question, keep track of invoices and inventory, notice when something needs attention, and take the initiative to address it.

Weekly online groups exploring spiritual science an its relationship to modern technology

Can a real community form online?

A conference can introduce a question. A study group has time to live with it — to read carefully, listen to one another, and ask what Rudolf Steiner’s work may reveal about the significance of our technological age.

This autumn, MysTech is offering twelve-week online groups drawn from Steiner’s lectures and books. These timely courses consider what humanity faces, the meaning of the human being, the proper course of human evolution, and the challenge of machines shaped by Ahrimanic intelligence.

If you are relatively new to Anthroposophy, the First Course is the natural place to begin. Experienced students are welcome to enter another course or return to earlier material; many participants find that the work deepens through repetition.

• First Course — hosted by Mark Z or Lawrence
• Second Course — hosted by Andrew
• Third Course — hosted by Shruthi or Mark H
• Mysteries of Evil, Volume 1 — hosted by Mark Z
• Mysteries of Evil, Volume 2 — hosted by Andrew
• Light & Electricity — hosted by Malana

Refined Breathing will be added when its session timezones are confirmed. Courses without a confirmed host can be studied individually without a host but will remain unavailable for registration.

Honeybees stand at a threshold. Their health and future are in question worldwide, calling us to reimagine our relationship with these remarkable beings.

This event is guided by colleagues from Apis Arborea — a California nonprofit devoted to wild honeybee conservation through a holistic ecological framework — grounded in long-term field research, biomimetic nesting structures, and deep attentiveness to the bees’ own nature.

Date: Saturday, August 15th, 2026

Annual MysTech Conference 2026: Becoming Aware of the Etheric

For our landmark 10th conference, we turn our attention to the etheric realm — the domain of living, formative forces that exists between the physical plane and higher spiritual planes. As technology increasingly shapes the conditions of modern life, understanding these life forces becomes essential for counterbalancing our slide via technology into sub-nature.

Our speakers will explore practices, such as eurythmy, for opening doors to etheric perception. Using Goethean science, we seek to discover the living qualities within substances and elements. Can each of us strengthen our etheric vitality to fully participate in our age of screens and social media? Can we find Christ in the etheric to be our brother as we necessarily tread through Ahriman’s sphere?

“We can only become sure of ourselves as human beings if we walk the road created by the whole of technology, but do not let our lives be governed by the products of technology, and grow able to behold the Christ power that can become part of us and overcome all those products of technology.”

— Rudolf Steiner

Conference Themes

• Evolution of the Human Constitution — Our etheric body is loosening from the physical.
• New Spiritual Awareness — How will etheric awareness affect culture and civilization?
• Christ in the Etheric — To be with us as we tread into Ahriman’s sphere.
• Technology as a Reflection of the Etheric — Is there something similar to Zoom in the etheric?

Three Registration Tiers

• Resonance Pass ($97 early bird) — Live stream access with 3-month recordings.
• Luminous Pass ($197) — Lifetime recordings, transcripts, and HD audio.
• Illuminated Circle ($397) — Everything above plus 1-year media library access and a private community group.

“Through meditation the etheric body gets the tendency to become separated from the physical body.”

— Rudolf Steiner
