Norm and Skye are co-founders among others of TAI. They bring unique perspectives to their emerging insights on the phenomenon of life and what it requires of us.

Norm's thesis emerging from his comprehensive and wide spectrum search for the role of values in science has given him both a history and experience with science of physics, information theory, logic, metaphysics and philosophy as well as mathematics and axiology that give him a perspective grounding from which he can leap, make quantum leaps into the unknown and feel at home – he shares here knowledge of this shifting reality from materialism to organism. 

Skye brings her empirical experience of using the emerging insights in coaching, healing, learning, of meeting with people up close and personal.  In this interchange, new world- views emerge out of the uniqueness of this intersection, healing and becoming true to ones own nature becomes more fully realized. Skye tells her story of life with Norm and their learning and loving together on this journey of discovery.
Whitehead Processes Point the Way to New Mind
OMG,  Whitehead was so "out there" ahead of his time getting insights into this new reality and giving us a foundation for navigating a non tangible, outside space time process of manifestation.  Here is a paragraph summary by Norm Hirst of this process.  I hope you'll take a bit of time to ponder it.

 from Theory:  Hypothesis -Unique Characteristics of  New Science

 

 

Whitehead's Process:

An actual occasion is a living event composed of many many living entities with their own identity in which every entity in the composition is making judgments for itself; what do I want based on prehensions (felt sense facts of togetherness or the awareness of one another).  Eternal objects are perfect because they are outside space and time like Plato's Ideals in mathematics.  Eternal objects (these are the epi-principles of life-itself) are organizing principles around which space/ time organizes itself within perfections.  Each entity is going to be invoking some aspect of some eternal object(s).  This could be the same as laws of coherence.  Eternal objects are like objectives (intensional attractors).  A living entity in an actual occasion has prehensions giving it what it's got to work with. All of this said is what is presented to us at the beginning of the actual occasion. An actual occasion reaches satisfaction in the concrescence of its being positively prehended by another actual occasion and becomes a superject

Each individual will decide on the basis of the eternal objects (superject) and the prehensions;

And so was Mary Baker Eddy, founder of Christian Science. A lot of creative NEW thought energy of this nature was emerging during the early 1900s. I also see the connection to the work of - Claire Graves, Emerson.
