Many wisdom traditions have holidays inviting contemplation, atonement, assessment and recommitment to ideals which fall in the ending months of our calendar year.

In this light, Ivy Sea, Inc. celebrates the transition from one year into another with a new series of articles and offsite links exploring the many facets of integrating spirituality into the modern workplace.

Is there a place for spirituality in the workplace? If so, what is it? How do our faith practices affect and inform our ethics and the quality of our work? When do expressions of faith and religion conflict with workplace productivity and regulatory requirements? This portal features resources to help you explore these questions.

The following web sites feature some nice resources to explore the variety of perspectives on faith, spiritual practices and their intersection with the workplace. Due to space limitations, we regret that we can include only a small selection, but we do welcome ideas.
