Love is the cosmic energy that animates matter with life. There are different names for it in different belief systems: prana, chi, eros, universal energy. Our species has become disconnected from the metabolism of the Earth, the matter from which this energy surges.

Love is the cosmic energy that animates matter with life. There are different names for it in different belief systems: prana, chi, eros, universal energy. Our species has become disconnected from the metabolism of the Earth, the matter from which this energy surges. So we have become a force of destruction capable of turning the blue green planet Gaia into a rock like Mars or a fiery hell like Venus. As a humanist, Serena believes that the arts and humanities are the sciences that help us invent the belief systems we need. The 20th century has been the century of anxiety, the most violent century when humanity has become too powerful for our own good. Now we clearly need a new belief system. Ecosexuality is a way to invent this new belief system as it teaches that love is the ecology of life. Love is what everyone wants and most people feel they are unable to produce. Serena believes that channeling the vital energy of love is an art. Serena believes that this art can be taught and learned in the schools of love we need. The art of ecosexual love is what she teaches. Everybody can learn it! When you learn these arts you can make love the ecology of your life.
