About

Palmetta the palm tree observes events, happenings and other characters as they live life and create the world they want. She listens to her surroundings, her body, other beings, and her dreams. 

Palmetta Listens takes the form of stop animation, coloring pages, Palmeditations (short meditations) and other activities for children and families that explore the art of collaboration, Deep Listening, and meditation. 

Palmetta Listens is created by Lindsay McKenzie, a certified Deep Listening facilitator. She studied Deep Listening with Pauline Oliveros through the Center for Deep Listening at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. She lives aboard a boat in Sausalito with her husband Adisa, and their two daughters Grace and Sage. They enjoy being surrounded by the sounds of bay water, birds and the motion of the docks.
