Over de sessie

This Sacred Earth will braid together the themes of the Eco-Dharma speaker series, as well as the in-person retreat, in a lively dialogue between Catherine and Adam. The heart question will be about reverence and love for our living planet within a rapidly changing climate and ecological loss. Ontdek de cultivering van behendigheid en moed om in een echte wereld te blijven, voortdurende relatie met deze heilige aarde, ongeacht wat de komende decennia brengen.
