Come experience Active Hope with Betti Lambro and Virginia Metcalf:
Active Hope is about helping us process and move through our feelings of despair, anger, grief, shock and disbelief about the state of our planet. It helps us end the cycle of feeling paralyzed or ineffective due to our natural and normal feelings of hopelessness in the face of interconnected, daunting global crises such as climate change, political chaos, social injustice, abuse of our environment, the drug epidemic, etc. Through deep reconnection with others, we can each find our own resilience, creativity, and empowerment.
The workshop follows the transformational Spiral of the Work That Reconnects:
Rooting in Gratitude
Honoring Our Pain
Seeing With New Eyes
Going Forth
By rooting ourselves in Gratitude we create a solid foundation from which to dive into Honoring Our Pain for the world. Feeling our emotions, allowing ourselves to cry, express anger, laugh, or simply get in touch with our numbness, can be supremely healing. Once we have felt and honored the fullness of our pain, we can begin to See With New Eyes by allowing ourselves to envision our hoped-for futures for life on Planet Earth. We then prepare ourselves to Go Forth and be in the world in new ways.
Active Hope is also known as the Work That Reconnects (WTR), which has been developed and honed by Joanna Macy and her colleagues since 1978. "Active Hope: How to Face the Mess We're In Without Going Crazy" (2012, by Joanna Macy and Chris Johnstone) is recommended reading.
