Rooted in Our Bodies: How to Ground Individually and Collectively in the Climate Crisis
Navigating the global environmental crisis, climate anxiety, and the demands of daily life can easily leave us feeling disconnected or overwhelmed. Eco-somatics invites us back into our bodies, using our innate connection to the living ecosystem as a foundation for grounding and support.
This workshop is an invitation to honor both the grief and beauty of these times. Through guided body-based practices, you’ll learn how to be present in your body–and in community–as we hold the many tensions of being alive in this moment.
In this workshop, you will:
Practice Eco-Somatic Awareness: Cultivate a bodily felt sense of belonging and grounding within your local ecosystem.
Regulate Your Nervous System: Learn tools to soothe your body’s response to environmental stressors and practices for moving through eco-grief and anxiety.
Support Children & Families: Receive resources for parenting in climate change and co-regulation approaches to guide children through acute weather events.
This workshop will take place virtually on Thursday, October 22 at 12 pm ET.
This workshop is $20, or free for Public Friends members. Find the promo code on the Member Homepage.
This event is brought to you by Public Friends.
