Active Hope Course (October – December 2021)

Active Hope Course; Thursday evenings; 5.30-8.30pm: Dates:7 & 21 October; 4 & 18 November; 2 & 9 December. – Would you like to make a positive difference for future generations so life on our planet, but feel overwhelmed, burned-out, paralysed or numbed by the enormity of the challenges? This course is for people wanting to influence change to make a positive difference for future generations. We are in a climate and environmental crisis; the recent IPCC report states that we are on code red – climate change is real, present and lasting, with effects almost certain to worsen through the coming decades. This all sounds so alarming. There is an urgency to act! ………yet action without reflection, calmness and clear thinking can be wasteful and burn you and others up. These workshops are a safe place to be with our feelings, helping us to stay grounded, connected and responsive to what’s happening in our lives, our communities and our world. The course will be on-line via Zoom. It is highly interactive, and is based on the work of Joanna Macy and Chris Johnstone, to address the urgent crisis we face – “Exploring how to face the mess we’re in without going crazy”. The group will be facilitated by Jeannie Hodder, Leadership Coach and Facilitator. Payment is on a donation basis (offerings at the end of the course). Participants are expected to commit to the whole course and spaces are limited (max. 12 places) so booking is essential. To make a booking or for more information, please contact: Jeannie via coaching@jhodder.co.uk and please include a few sentences about why you want to join and what you hope to achieve from joining the group.
