Cultivating Interdependence: Individual & Community Well-Being in the Era of Climate Change

Date: April 20

Time: 1 to 3 p.m. 

Location: UCalgary Faith & Spirituality Centre, fourth floor of MacEwan Student Centre, Room 487                                       

As our climate crisis intensifies, it can be difficult for all of us to talk about it, process our complex emotions around, and connect with and support others feeling the same way. In this workshop, we will support each other in facing and processing our climate grief, share and practice using various climate grief tools to develop our personal grief toolkits and connect you with additional community resources. Sharing grief and practices that cultivate resilience can help us grow beyond our comfort zones, shift our consciousness, and have a positive influence. It also helps us move into better relationships with self, community and planet by recognizing our interdependence with the living planet and all of the earth community.

Join Jodi Lammiman, founder of Refugia Retreats and Alana-Dawn Eirikson, Sustainability Partnerships & Events Coordinator with the Office of Sustainability in having mindful conversations about climate grief.

Please note for this in-person session we will need to cap attendance at 30 participants.
