The Eco-Dharma Talk Series: Exploring Where A Mindful Life and Ecology Meet

The heart question of This Sacred Earth will be about reverence and love for our living planet within a rapidly changing climate and ecological loss. We will explore the cultivation of agility and courage to abide in a genuine, ongoing relationship with this sacred earth, no matter what the next decades bring.

The Eco-Dharma Talk Series: Exploring Where A Mindful Life and Ecology Meet will feature presentations by Dougald Hine, Helena Norberg-Hodge, Adam Lobel, Catherine McGee, and Liane Stephan. 

Topics in this five-day Eco-Dharma Talk series range from circular economies, the importance of local food, finding our way in the midst of climate and other crises, ”inner dimensions of sustainability,” and our connection to the sacred earth. This talk series is being offered by Shambhala Online, in collaboration with Dechen Chöling Retreat Centre in France, and hosted by the Shambhala Touching the Earth Collective.
