8 billion people
who do we
want to be
as humanity?
Starting a
revolution
without
starting the
next war
Hello fellow human – my name is Integrity. I am not only a fundamental principle of life, I am also a deep value of humankind. Somehow over the last centuries it happened that I was treated quite badly. I was devaluated, avoided, ignored. But here comes the good news. A bunch of courageous people decided to help me to get back in my seat and to place me in the very center of your human societies.
The simple key to use is your full presence in your vulnerability as a human being. Human species, you don’t know how fragile you are. You have been ashamed. And I know that you are able to bring that back to your ownership. Just know that I look with love at you.
Do you wanna come home and live your full humanness? Are you willing to see yourself as the relational being you are? Are you willing to acknowledge the complex conditions of your sensitive nervous system that seeks to orient you in life? To befriend yourself again with the deep spiritual nature that lays within you and can never be taken? Are you ready to claim your basic human right for soul integrity?
I can’t tell how happy I am to re-union with you, for a future where you and I live together in trust and joy. We will have fun, this is for sure. Everybody will be included. Looking forward to meeting you there!
Sincerely yours, Integrity
A call to action
be your own revolution!
I’m Ann. I am a trauma therapist and a systems thinker. And I am an activist for the rehabilitation of humanity as the soulful species we are. The value of integrity always spoke to me. There was a moment in time when I truly listened. And I followed the call.
Before, my soul cried! My soul was crying since my very first day on our beautiful planet. Sometimes it felt like I could cry forever and the tears would never stop, so deep was the pain. I came here to love and to serve the beauty on earth. What I found was a battle field. Heavily loaded relationships, poisoned communication, wars and nature under attack.
It wasn’t meant like this. But have we ever been asked if we want that? Have you ever been asked what you came here for? Our off-track way of living is causing us an incredible pain. To just give in and to “function”or to reduce our contribution to serve as “firefighters” in a self-destructive world is the origin of a deep soul wound that can no longer be ignored.
In facing mine I learned about my own souls mission: my call is it to connect with every single human being on this planet and to ask the questions that can unleash the hidden treasure in each and everyone.
The living prove of the soulful beings we are is the advocacy we dare to to show, individually and together, for the truth of our souls. At the level of our souls we have access to a shared knowing about the conditions for life to flourish. This path is beyond any blaming or complaint. This path is about your own agency to be the revolution you long for.
In finding our unique expression of worship we join and weave in the beautiful patterns of life. Only you can do the course correction. Do you know your soul wound? What did you came here for? I will be carefully listening to you, Ann
Integrity
For
Future
an initiative to reinstate the trustworthiness of humankind
Integrity For Future is an independent initiative to open a benevolent space for a deep listening to the innermost values living in humanity.
The space is mainly formed by questions we can gather around as individuals, neighbourhoods, friends, families, work teams, communities, parties, nations, as a species – to become aware of our connections and to continue to weave the threads of multi-contextual relationships that are anyway alive between everything that is.
The vessel for that adventurous journey we are free to choose lays in the question of the questions: who do we want to be as humanity?
Who we are & what we do
We are a growing field of people who care, for a good life for all, for a healthy planet – as a place that future generations are happy to call “home”.
To reinstate the trust into our own species seems to be key. To go deep and to make integrity the central reference point in our societies is the most powerful leverage point we can think of.
We believe that in the core of every human being is a knowing about and a longing for life to flourish to say for integrity. So we are setting off for the rehabilitation of the value of integrity itself. Integrity is nothing to be prescribed. It can’t be forced. It is alive in the living exchange amongst us.
Time and spaces for exchange which includes the wounds and failures we experienced in the absence of integrity is what we aim to provide. In introducing ways to relate to the cruelty and the beauty which is nourishing and respecting the integrity of each and everyone we can start to step out of the vicious circle of shame we trapped ourselves in.
In our community you find both: support for the inner work that you might need to find your way back to “soul integrity“. And “A Trustable Tribe” where you find yourself in the encouraging company of others when doing your first steps to change our society as the seeing, healing and creative soul you are!

What is
integrity for you?
There is a general common cultural ground that gives us a sense of what integrity and reliability are. Basic qualities might be inclusiveness and a life-affirming orientation. At the same time it can never be about a single absolute truth.
For each of us there also exists a very personal layer which has to do with our unique journey and the specific experiences that grew us. And it is important to express this truth and to be witnessed by others – that all voices can be heard and contribute to the integrity of the whole. This is the actual purpose of the initiative, to open a space for the 8 billion people walking on our planet with the question: what is integrity for you?

A Trustable Tribe
In collective search
for soul integrity
In our phenomenological research we touched the question wether humanity today is going collectively through a “dark night of the soul”.
What if nothing went “wrong” so far and we could just let go of wasting our time in searching for the bad guy (or the bad group of people) that we can blame for the miserable state we find ourselves in?
What if we see it as a natural process, having explored our immense power to the limits, to grow out of puberty into the human tribe we would love to be?
Let’s explore together what “a trustable tribe” is about. If the hidden agreement to split power and soul must not be kept going we are finally free to ask ourselves the most relevant of all questions.
Weaving & shaping
let’s talk soul.integrity
One of our main goals is to create spaces that are safe enough to incite open dialogues about our most hidden wounds, our deepest needs and our wholeheartedst longings.
Let’s talk soul.integrity is an invitation to join in the conversation in clarity and vulnerability, not avoiding the memories of shame in us, and unleash the suppressed energy that we need to create the future we want to live in. We replace the culture of scapegoating with a culture of soul integrity.
Healing & Trainings
You want to work on your personal integrity? You seek for a raise of integrity in your company or in the field of politics you are active in? Before we can celebrate our breathtaking capabilities to their full extent, we must firstly become “experts” in – just being human.
To truly enter into the realm of humanness does not mean reducing certain aspects in us to a digestible size. We rather expand our inner spaces and grow our response-ability – until we can include everything. Transcend the old flip coin pattern of defeat-or-overpowering in learning and practicing “the third way” – the establishment of soul integrity, again and again and again.
Projects & Cooperations
We love to explore and to create together for the sake of integrity. Together we find forms to relate to integrity in an alive, meaningful and embodied way – in our full humaneness. Ancient wisdom emerges in our experimental circle gatherings, our longings and the challenges of our journey can be expressed in creative ways through arts …
We are happy to cooperate with like-minded partners that help realize things that we can only do together.
Support & Inspirations
To come to integrity is a journey. And it remains a life long ongoing process. Where to start? Enjoy our choice of initiatives from very different fields that can support your growth or might inspire you on your path towards soul integrity.
