How do we cope with the daily onslaught of ecosystem destruction, climate devastation, social injustice? This time in our history is being called 'The Great Unravelling'. We need to find ways to build our resilience through this and to be able to act together for a new way of being, towards what's being called 'The Great Turning' - the shift from the Industrial Growth Society to a Life Sustaining Society.

We will build community and share practices that help us to do this. We'll work through Joanna Macy's 'Work That Reconnects' spiral from Gratitude, Honouring our Pain for the World, Seeing with New/Ancient Eyes, and Going Forth. During the Going Forth stage we will bring in Jem Bendall's 4 Rs of Resilience, Relinquishment, Restoration & Reconciliation and work on what this means for each of us and collectively.

Moving through a weekend of ritual, storytelling, and practices held together in community. We will create a space to touch our grief and anger for what is happening to our world, expand our perspectives, and emerge with a new sense of how we want to show up with our gifts in this unique time in history.

We warmly invite you to participate. Cindy & Toni have been facilitating this work for over 10 years. Also, if you're interested in learning to facilitate this work, attending this weekend is a great start. This work is needed more and more.
