Embodied Climate Action: Cultivate Critical Hope through Connection to Self, Nature, and Community

Being in nature and with community are two age-old forms of mental, physical, and emotional well-being. Each workshop is focused around a seasonal theme within the Gardens on Spring Creek to explore our inner responses to our collective climate emergency so that we may regenerate resilience for ourselves, our community, and Earth. Tamara Yakaboski, PhD, guides participants through reflection, discussion, and mind-body activities to cultivate critical hope from our eco-grief and anxiety.

Preparation: Bring your journal or something to write on/with. Be prepared to explore outside in all weather conditions and temperatures - jackets, lap blanket, whatever allows you to be as close to nature as possible.

Note to participants: These workshops are containers to process, share, and witness individual and collective climate grief and emotions. These are not substitute for therapy. They are not debates about climate crisis cause or existence or to develop agree upon collective action.

With Earth’s Support

To feel how Earth supports us offers a genuine sense of belonging. Just as the Earth breaths, in this workshop we will explore how it feels to breathe with Earth. In experiencing this reconnection, we return the mind and body back to Nature’s natural cycles.
