Permitirnos reconocer cuán grave es la crisis climática y la pérdida de biodiversidad, and how human activity has led to this destruction – can lead to deep feelings of grief, enojo, impotencia,  abrumar, confusión y parálisis. What can we do in the face of such overwhelming and tragic information?

In this workshop we will begin by seeing and grounding ourselves in what we can be grateful for right now. What is good and right. We still have eyes to see, loved ones to love, beautiful words and music to hear and so on. Allowing gratitude to arise can redress the imbalance we might feel without belittling other difficult feelings.

Doing so can prepare us for facing the feelings that hold us back or feel too big to face, frighten us or enrage us. And as difficult as it is, acknowledging and sharing these feelings can free us to act and give purpose to our lives. When we act we we begin to feel as if we are making a difference and as a result feel more hopeful.

But what do we do, how do we act? For act we must.
