Mission Statement
We make spiritual practice simple and accessible. Rooted in metaphysics and New Thought, we share spiritual principle in ways that inspire greater love, peace, and joy in everyday life.
We are growing a heart-centered community devoted to compassion, service, and collective well-being.
Vision Statement
We envision a world where inner peace becomes the foundation for global harmony. Active Love Project helps people awaken that peace within themselves and express it outwardly through love, mindful activism and conscious living.
Our Philosophical Foundation
At Active Love Project, we draw from New Thought and modern metaphysics, teachings that recognize one infinite Source, the creative power of Love itself.
This Love isn’t distant or abstract. It’s the essence of who we are. Each of us is an expression of that same Divine Intelligence, endowed with the ability to think, create, and extend love in our own unique ways.
This process of remembering is what we call healing. In letting go of fear, judgment, and limitation, we awaken to the peace that’s already within us. From that awareness come clarity, compassion, and inspired action.
At its core, our practice is simple: to remember that Love is real, peace is possible, and the Divine Intelligence lives within us all.
Active Love
We believe that true self-empowerment naturally leads to social responsibility. As we awaken to our creative potential, we are also called to participate in the healing of our communities and our country by working toward a society rooted in equality and dignified living for all. Altruism and activism are essential values in a heart-centered community. We encourage right action in the care and well-being of all people, beginning in our own homes and extending outward into the world.
We also recognize the tendency toward spiritual bypassing, using spiritual ideas to avoid uncomfortable truths or difficult emotions. At Active Love Project, we are committed to healing this habit by grounding our practice in honesty, compassion, and action. Our aim is to move beyond coping and self-soothing into genuine growth, becoming visionaries who courageously stand for a unified and compassionate world.
