Is it all too much? The endless feed reading, Twitters, IMs, emails, news rivers, vlogs, blogs, podcasts, pages and SMSes? If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the demands of our digital age, a new workshop from Leif Hansen at Spark Northwest may help bring some balance back into your life. “Soul Tech: Living a passionately productive life amidst a tech-stressed world” has been featured in the Los Angeles Times, the Chicago Tribune, and Seattle’s KOMO radio. Like the Humanity 2.0 workshop developed by Spark Northwest last year, Soul Tech promises to help you develop a clearer understanding of “where you want to go with technology.” To register, or for more information, call 1-877-I-AM-GAME.

Humanity 2.0: where the tech are we going and do we want to go there?

Does embracing new technology cost us more than it benefits us? What effects do email, cell phones, iPods, or social networking have on us spiritually, psychologically, or emotionally? Spark Northwest is hosting a workshop on Orcas Island to help figure it all out. My buddy Leif Hansen is the owner of Spark Northwest and the workshop’s co-organizer. I’ve found Leif to be passionate, smart, and thoughtful, so I’m sure there will be some stimulating and thought-provoking discussion at Humanity 2.0. At the very least, it’s an excuse to visit Orcas Island for the weekend. That’s never bad.
