The purpose was to open a space in the stressful and rushed environment of the city where people could disconnect from their routine and smartphones and connect with themselves and with the nature around them, thus promoting a culture of peace, self-knowledge and their relationship with the world.<\/p>\n<p>The Des-Connection Trail has counted on the participation of specialists and activities including:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cooperative Games<\/strong> \u2013 \u201cWe play in game as we play in life\u201d \u2013 With the purpose of promoting reflection and self-knowledge in a humorous way, the cooperative games invite you to be who you are, without barriers and without judgement. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Biomimicry<\/strong> \u2013 Discover solutions to the world through observation of nature.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Culture of Peace<\/strong> &#8211;  Discover, learn and share what is peace for each person and how we can bring it into our routine.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Neuro Linguistics Programming<\/strong> \u2013 Discover and reframe each person\u2019s history.<\/p>\n<p>(Article continued in right column)<\/p>\n<p>(Click <a href=\"http:\/\/spanish.cpnn-world.org\/?p=6193\">here for the original article in Portuguese<\/a>)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"float: right; width: 46%;\">Question for this article:<\/div>\n<div style=\"float: right; width: 46%;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"float: right; width: 46%;\">\n<p align=\"justify\">\n<p><em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/english.cpnn-world.org\/?p=6439\">Where is peace education taking place?<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>(continued from left column)<\/p>\n<p>Another methodology created by the organization to promote consciousness is \u201cCollaborative Mentoring\u201d that is the collaboration between the participants and the developing of dreams and consciousness.<\/p>\n<p>The Dream Factory proposes the creation of an economy that would be more conscious and positive with the development of a new relation with money for which the organization plans to develop courses accessible to the participants. The Trail participants could choose between: paying for just the material used in the course, the material plus the hourse of organizating work, or else to collaborate with the organization by voluntarily paying more than the costs.<\/p>\n<p>Surprisingly 85% of people choose the last option.  Here are some of their comments:<\/p>\n<p>Rodrigues, A. \u201cI thought the payment system was incredible.  It made the trail accessible to more people and able to be constructed by everybody. My suggestion is to keep this system of payment choice, so that more people can feel comfortable and participate.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Finotti, A. \u201cI\u2019ve learned that I don\u2019t need lots of time of being together to become a friend of someone, I learned that a Sunday at the park can be much more than that, I learned that simple moments such as sharing a meal with someone can be amazing.\u201d<br \/>\nDuring the walk there were some stops with reflections and connections with each person\u2019s history.  This was essential for each one to discover more about self-awareness, about nature, opening space to cultivate peace from inside so they can promote it in the world. <\/p>\n<p>The trails take place regularly and with a specific calendar.
