Upcoming Events

from Our Networks

How We Heal

Online
Our world is navigating a softened poly-crisis of grief, including personal and collective losses, climate disruptions, post-pandemic recovery, and ongoing global conflicts. Hosted by activist and meditation teacher Reggie Hubbard, this online event invites participants to gently hold these realities while exploring pathways to healing.

Towards Building an Anti-racist Culture

Online
Participants will engage in practices to strengthen resilience, including resourcing, self-compassion, slowing down, and energy release techniques. We will also critically examine oppression at global, systemic, and internalized levels—acknowledging how supremacy culture shapes emotions, beliefs, and behaviors.

Authoritarianism, Collective Trauma & Imperfect Solidarity

Online
Our group of speakers will address collective trauma and the polycrisis. Moderated by Sarah Jaquette Ray, the speakers will discuss how the climate crisis has been mobilized in service of authoritarian nationalism, anti-immigrant xenophobia, and misogyny.

Healing Wealth in the Time of Collapse

Online
In this four week series we will read and reflect together on the book authored by Anloor Ladha and Lynn Murphy. Although centered on the systems of capitalism and philanthropy, the structure of the text (recognizing paradox, moving into possibilities, shifting the mode of logic, and walking into the unknown) is a helpful framework for investigating and shifting other systems for which we are entrenched.

Retreats will be held in 2025 – 2027 at four geographically dispersed retreat centers. Attendance at the retreats is free, but other costs are participant responsibilities.
