Limited Edition Book Release
Communion
by Jeff Krasno
2020 and the Middle Path Back To Reason, Morality, and Each Other.
Profound Storytelling Filled with Wisdom on the Current and Timeless
Here at Commune we believe in communion as an exchange of intimate thoughts, particularly when that discussion weaves together the personal, political, and spiritual in a way that helps us find common ground despite our differences.
What began as a series of heartfelt messages to the Commune community at the beginning of the pandemic evolved throughout 2020 into just this sort of communion. Each week Commune Co-Founder Jeff Krasno would sit down to write a fresh essay addressing the most pressing topics of the moment through the lens of intimate personal stories and timeless spiritual wisdom.
This book is an exclusive, small-print-run collection of those essays alongside all-new reflection exercises and meditations.
If you find yourself heatedly discussing the most confounding issues of our times – from political polarization and race relations to vaccine skepticism and climate change – this book offers you fresh ways of thinking about those thorny topics as well as compassionately and effectively moving those conversations forward.
At times laugh-out-loud hilarious, and at other times profoundly serious, Communion is a must-read (and re-read) compendium of the current and timeless.
We are now shipping a very limited print run available to U.S. addresses. To purchase the e-book version, click here.

What Teachers Are Saying About the Book
Marianne Williamson
"2020 was a year we will never forget. The pandemic, the national reckoning for social justice, the election, the scourge of misinformation and the rise of conspiracy - these phenomena thrust us into uncertainty and tested our resilience. This book is a reminder that even in our most difficult times, there are ways to dig deep and find the meaning in all of it."
Deepak Chopra
“If we ever want to reach a critical mass in world consciousness for a more peaceful, just, sustainable, healthier and more joyful world then this book is the manifesto for you! Emergence happens when there is shared vision and maximum diversity along with emotional and spiritual bonding. Let this book guide you on your journey to wholeness.”
Danielle LaPorte
“I read every one of Jeff’s essays as he rolled them out. His writing voice is charmed, but it’s his very deep intention to bring us all together that makes us consider more and inhale some hopefulness.”
Gabby Bernstein
“Communion is a thought-provoking book that offers the reader a whole new perspective on how to show up during tumultuous times. Jeff Krasno provides thoughtful reflections, stories, and exercises for the reader to shift their perception from fear back to love.”

"What a wonderful, creative and thought-provoking book! Communion provides an opportunity to reflect, process, and unpack the myriad complexities of 2020 as we re-emerge into our “new normal” going forward. Through personal storytelling and follow up questions that flip the inquiry back on to us, Jeff Krasno invites us to consider the impact COVID 19, racial terrorism, personal and collective grief, social media, privilege, and much more, have shaped our physical and mental health this critical and historical year. It is so important that we don't miss the chance to look inward and learn from this moment and Communion provides the structure and inspiration that can help us make sense, and meaning, of our unique experiences. Read this book if you want to move into our collective future with more determination, compassion, and hope, and the renewed vigor to create a happy, healthy, and just world for all."

Let's find a middle way, together.
In an era of sensationalism and hyper politicization, these essays attempt to step out of the political invective, cultivate awareness of biases, and find a middle way — bushwhacking a pathway back to sanity through reason, secular morality, and a smattering of dubious dad humor.
