Humanity has lived in harmony with the Earth since most of its existence. Economic historians are in agreement that the onset of the Industrial Revolution is the most important event in the history of humanity since the domestication of animals and plants. With emphasis on production and profit, a competitive race synonymous with power, innovation and the control of natural resources ensued which is still ongoing, the recent trade wars and accusations of technology thefts confirming this.  If humanity is to survive into the future then there is urgency for us as a race to consciously reconnect with our own imprinting, which is a biological one, in order to further our evolution which includes other dimensions .
