As part of our Women's Leadership series, poet, novelist, essayist, storyteller, teacher, healer and medicine woman, Deena Metzger, will speak with us about ways to be with what is happening in the world currently, including reflecting on the recent California wildfires.

Please join Dougald, Vanessa, and Post Carbon Institute’s Asher Miller, for a free 90-minute live, online conversation to explore the promise and consequences of modernity, the implications of its decline, and how we – individually and collectively – hospice what is dying and give care to what may emerge.

During these times of ecological crisis, we must set aside time for ourselves and for our community to connect outdoors. Women identifying participants are welcome to participate in this silent Vipassana meditation and yoga retreat rooted in nature. Spend much of each day in nature, practicing meditation and gentle guided yoga (trauma sensitive and accessible for all bodies). This retreat is dana based.

Join our active online training to learn all you need to know to host climate emotions circles with your community and beyond.

The conference will focus on social-ecological justice through a collective liberation framework, addressing our current polycrisis and envisioning pathways toward a just, resilient, and regenerative future for all. Engage in dynamic discussions and hands-on workshops that challenge the status quo and inspire courageous action to resist ‘Business as Usual.’

This half-day interactive Ecodharma workshop will be interwoven with meditation, journaling, and contemplative sharing periods. Kritee will guide us in taking a loving look at what grieves and angers us collectively. Together, we will name the scale of stresses and traumas we face both individually and collectively.

Join James Baraz, Carol Cano, Bonnie Duran, Ayya Santacitta, special guest Christiana Figueres (online), and more, on-land at Spirit Rock or online, for a transformative Earth Day weekend.

Our Bearing Witness retreats take place in places where deep human trauma occurred and where healing is endlessly needed. With our retreats we intend to contribute to this healing.

During this program, participants have an opportunity to be with community, connect meaningfully with the land, and learn ways of promoting personal and collective resilience.

Join us in learning how to have conversations about climate in this polarizing time.
