Climate Coaching Alliance Festival Event- Waking Up to the Climate Crisis Through Poetry

Recording and resources for this event can be found with this link.

This is an online workshop part of the Climate Coaching Alliance Festival: “Coaching for the Great Awakening”

Like meditation, poetry has long been a vehicle for creating greater presence and connection to ourselves, others and the world. In this online workshop, you will explore with others your relationship to the climate crisis through a series of poems that will evoke the myriad of feelings that the topic brings up: lack of understanding, anxiety, helplessness, grief, guilt, ambivalence as well as aspiration, hope, a sense of emerging possibilities, renewal, and may be, a new commitment to engagement. Join us to experience how you can use poetry to reflect deeply on this important topic of our time, and take a first step towards acting for the Earth. Be prepared to read the texts aloud to the group or in break-out sessions, reflect individually and share authentically and courageously.
