Caring Practice
Caring for the earth and all beings, human and non-human, is caring for ourselves. In this stream, we explore the various forms of practice that embody that care:
- Earth Meditations
Practices for individuals to undertake on their own or in sangha to cultivate connections to the earth, our larger body. - Living Green
Inspiration, strategies and resources for reducing our carbon emissions and waste as well as other ways of contributing to a healthy planet. - Wise Speech & Action
Opportunities for speaking and acting with others on how we can respond to the reality of climate change with wisdom and compassion.
