Today’s episode on Gateways to Awakening is with Stephen Brooks, best known for his work in Costa Rica. Brooks has been a key figure in the development of eco-villages, permaculture communities, and educational initiatives aimed at promoting sustainability, organic farming, and environmental awareness.

Brooks co-founded the Envision Festival, a transformational festival in Costa Rica that combines music, yoga, art, and education, centered around the themes of sustainability and regenerative practices. The festival has become a global gathering for those interested in ecological living and conscious culture.

Additionally, Brooks is the founder of Punta Mona, an off-the-grid permaculture farm and educational center located on Costa Rica's Caribbean coast. Punta Mona serves as a model for sustainable living and offers hands-on learning experiences in permaculture, organic agriculture, and natural building techniques.

We talk about the following and so much more:

What led him to Costa Rica and to start working on community projects there?

What is the Envision Festival, and how did it evolve into what it is today?
