Adam Lobel

Adam Lobel
Adam Lobel, Ph.D, practices at the threshold of ecologies, Buddhist-inspired meditation and philosophy, contemplative education, and psycho-social political change. Adam is a scholar-practitioner of philosophy and religion, focusing on Dzogchen Tibetan Buddhism and contemporary theory. A professor of Ecopsychology at the Falk School of Sustainability and a Focusing professional, he is curious about cultural therapeutics for our collapsing society. He leads ecodharma workshops called “Silent Transformations,” teaches in the Ecosattva Training, is a Guiding Teacher for One Earth Sangha, a GreenFaith fellow, and is active in ecological justice movements. Adam is developing Four Fields of contemplative practices for potential worlds. He lives in Pittsburgh, PA with his family where he protects lands from the petrochemical industry.
