Holistic Law
Pause for Transformation
IAHL's mission is to transform the practice of law, through education and support of holistic practice.
The only living being capable of completely transforming, down to its DNA, is the butterfly. It starts as an egg, a small ball of potential. Then the egg hatches and becomes a caterpillar. The caterpillar eats and grows and molts and eats and grows and molts some more. When it's done growing, the caterpillar retreats into its chrysalis, where the magic happens. After this transformation, it is a completely different entity, with colorful wings and the gift of flight.

Law Students Ramping Up the Holistic Law Movement by Cheryl Conner
Cheryl Conner joined IAHL for its monthly teleseminar series on August 13, 2010. The archived recording is available to members of IAHL.
Cheryl is the Founder of New Prospects Collaborative and is a Faculty Member of the MBA in Sustainability Program at Marlboro Graduate Center in Brattleboro VT.
All over America, many good, decent lawyers individually inquire into their personal evolution, striving to integrate this intimate process with their outer practice of the law. Sometimes, we step outside of the solo journey, seeking companionship with like minded folks, both to learn and to enjoy the special pleasures of community.

General Interest Blogging the Non-Adversarial Justice Conference
It is finally here – the first day of the sessions of the Non-Adversarial Justice: Implications for the Legal System and Society conference in Melbourne, Australia. After well over a year of work and planning for the conference we will see how it all turns out. It is exciting – seeing old friends from around the world, meeting new ones. Last night the Chief Magistrate of Victoria hosted a welcome reception, which was a wonderful event. It was good to be in the same room as so many people committed to more humane, psychologically optimal, comprehensive and inclusive approaches to resolving conflict. Leading lights in therapeutic jurisprudence, restorative justice, problem-solving courts, preventive law, ADR and holistic law are present. The possibility for cross-fertilisation is a wonderful opportunity in such a conference.
