From Eco-Anxiety to Effective Action

From global warming to systemic injustice, our world needs us. But sometimes, emotions like anxiety, guilt, overwhelm, and burnout can keep us from getting our critical work done. 

In this four-week program, we will process feelings like eco-anxiety, fear, and grief and transform them into conscious, effective action. We will also explore your vision for the future and sketch out a plan for your role in getting us there. 

Daily mind training is a must at this pivotal point in human history, so I’ll support you as you create or strengthen a morning contemplative routine. I’ll also teach you practices you can use throughout the day to promote compassion and calm, and support you in transforming your lifestyle to reduce your environmental impact and become not just a fair-share consumer but an engaged global citizen. The program below reflects the general flow of our work together — it will be tailored to you!

You’ve heard the call. The world thanks you for answering it.
