About this Event
Join us for an experiential evening of connection. A place to remember the interconnectedness of all life and to discover our ecological identity. Through honouring our gratitudes and our pain for the world together we go forth with a renewed sense of empowerment to face the challenges of the world today. It's an invitation to gather, inquire, reconnect and perhaps encounter some of the questions that have been waiting for you.
This is a rare opportunity to work with lifetime environmental activist and elder John Seed, as he'll be zooming in remotely from Australia. He no longer travels to facilitate workshops.
For more than forty years he worked with Joanna Macy exploring important questions and co creating Deep Ecology practices.
What if lasting environmental action doesn’t begin with more information?
What if it begins with remembering that the rivers, forests, animals and mountains are not outside of us, but part of who we are?
Deep Ecology gives us.
More presence.
More connection.
A renewed sense of purpose.
A different way of meeting the world around us.
This powerful evening will be facilitated in person by Erika Aligno and joined by Rouge Valley local faciliitators and organizers Kat Steele, Julie Norman and Work that Reconnects Network Co-Director, Jo delAmor.
John Seed is the father of the Australian Deep Ecology movement, the founder of the Rainforest Information Centre, and has dedicated his life to the protection of rainforests and their biodiversity since 1979. https://www.instagram.com/johnseed_deepecology/
