Join us for our first Deep Resilience for a Dark Renaissance - Community Practice Group,a peer learning and support space where we come together to practise psychological, emotional, and spiritual resilience for a dark renaissance.
In a time of global heating, increasing social polarisation, and threat of systems collapse…
-
🌱 What psychological, emotional, and spiritual resources might help us to meet reality and “stay with the trouble” (succumbing neither to blind optimism nor despair)?
-
🌻 What practices might help us to increase our abilities to respond wisely and courageously?
-
🌈 What does hope look like?
Inspirations might include: Work that Reconnects; Hospicing Modernity; grief work; the work of Resmaa Menakem; relational practices…
