A guided visualisation, adapted from Donella Meadows' visioning work, for imagining a sustainable world concretely enough to act from: prepare in a quiet place with paper and pen; visualise home, community, energy, water, food, work and transport with all senses; expand the vision to surrounding communities and nations; then take the vision into the public arena and imagine regenerative governance — politicians working for people and planet, laws enabling sustainable change, biodiversity respected. Recording the instructions and listening back is suggested for focus.
