Listening Circle: Holding Our Pain for the World

🌎 Are you concerned about the health of the Earth?

🌿 Whether you are an activist, work in the environmental industry, or simply care about environmental issues, I welcome you to join this FREE Listening Circle to honor Earth Month and acknowledge the challenges inherent in this work.

These times are heavy. We may carry daily feelings of grief, anxiety, anger, guilt, or despair about our hurting ecosystems and world. But we may not always have spaces where these truths can be spoken and truly heard.

🫂 Join us and tap into the beauty of speaking truth in community.

We gather not to discuss action or change others' minds, but to let the feelings we've been quietly carrying be witnessed. As we do this, we realize we are not alone in feeling them. We may feel lighter and able to carry on protecting the environment in more sustainable, joyful ways. We may even begin to hold hope, gratitude, and empowerment alongside grief or worry.

While these are examples of experiences one might have in Listening Circles, you are not expected to feel any particular way during or after the experience. Your experience is your own and we are here to honor whatever is alive for you in the present moment. We build resilience by growing the capacity to be with what is 💚

Disclaimer: This is NOT a therapy group and it listening circles are not a substitute for therapy. I will send out an email of climate-informed mental health resources following the event.
