About
Whole Revolution – a metablog on Whole Living
We’re two guys in Northern Idaho who got together on a fall night to create a service that would support our interests. gMg – Geminate Media Group evolved out of this meeting and WholeRevolution.com emerged. With collectively over 50 years in the Whole Movement – we didn’t say we were Gen Xer’s, we bring a passion and depth of experience for living a Whole Life. Our vision is to unite all the aspects of these lifestyles and then get everyone sharing. It is our belief that beyond the green movement an even larger movement exists, one that’s bigger than just living a sustainable life, it’s about being healthy and fulfilled. Our definition of a whole life is one that isn’t based on scarcity, but one rich in experience beyond what we normally see in our modern cultures. Our first offering is this blog. With your support, we hope to progress from here to a more interactive social networking site. We invite you to travel with us, contribute and bring your friends.
