Challenge and empowerment in times of global crisis
We live in times of danger for life on earth, and also of great
opportunity. Changes are taking place which some call 'The Great
Turning' towards a more just and planet-friendly way of living. In
this day we'll explore how it is for us, living in these times;
share concerns and feelings and re-connect with sources of
inspiration. We discuss different kinds of power, and how they
manifest in our lives, and look at choices and strategies as
individuals and together.
We will draw on the work of Joanna Macy in 'The Work That
Reconnects', using discussion, lecture, meditations and other
exercises, including heart, mind and body in responding to the
challenges of the age.
