Are you overwhelmed in the face of the climate crisis? Are you seeking a safer place to think about this existential threat and support in deciding how you feel about it? We offer a series of 4 sessions where we will collectively grapple with how to engage with these challenges, build resilience and explore how hope is nurtured and incorporated into our daily lives. We will be drawing from Elin Kelsey’s book, Hope Matters: Why Changing the Way We Think is Critical to Solving the Environmental Crisis.

Four sessions are planned and they will include:

• Understanding and feeling our ecological grief
• Processing our responses so we can gain access to our ecological joy
• Learning strategies to shift perspectives and cultivate hope
• Providing resources and support

A 6-page document is required reading.

Facilitated by Teresa Morton and Rev. Meg Roberts – we hope you’ll join us!
