The Politics of Body and Earth
Dr. Ruby Gibson & Calvin Terrell
All great change is preceded by chaos. So, here we are, loitering in chaos, and witnessing dynamic change all around us.
Read MoreThe Politics of Body and Earth
Dr. Ruby Gibson & Calvin Terrell
We are collectively inhabiting a world whose rhythm has sped up. The impacts can feel hopeless, and humans can feel stressed. Yet Mother Earth still keeps her pace, her rhythm, and her cycles just as our bodies attempt to do the same. Aligning with Earth at this time will allow us to sense her rhythms and regenerate balance within.
This dynamic and interactive workshop will assist you in recognizing the great individual changes you hope to engage in that will broadcast beautiful ripples into the future as a blessing to all our relations. This session for somatic mindfulness is an invitation to explore your personal politics. Identify the balance of power between Body & Earth, Power & Virtues, Patriarchy & Matriarchy.
“The outcome of our personal dynamics and societal ills are influenced by our thoughts and choices every minute of every day.” – Dr. Ruby Gibson
Climate Cafe
Merritt Juliano
An informal, open, respectful, confidential space to safely share thoughts, feelings and experiences of living in the planetary health crisis.
Read MoreClimate Cafe
Merritt Juliano
Join us for an online Climate Cafe for Personal & Planetary Healing! One of the biggest challenges of the climate crisis is knowing what to do with the complex set of emotions regarding children, young people, and the fragility of our environment in the future. This is particularly pertinent to parents, caregivers, and those involved with today’s youth.
Climate Cafes are founded on the belief that the reality of climate change is inherently overwhelming – and that the difficult emotions connected to climate change are very difficult to feel. Processing painful feelings and situations among other people can be helpful in managing overwhelm, feeling more contained, and being able to feel empowered and support others in our lives. This is a structured space for informal, open, respectful, confidential emotional responses and reactions related to the climate.
Although not required, you may wish to bring a natural object (e.g., rock, feather, shell) to the cafe that is meaningful to you and/or your experience of the planetary health crisis.

Cultivating Care in Times of Loss
Bayo Akomolafe, PhD
A conversation critically examining traditional and historical notions of healing and how they sometimes get in the way of care.
Read MoreCultivating Care in Times of Loss
Bayo Akomolafe, PhD
The world is undergoing tumultuous moments of war and strife. Through these storms, a conversation about healing and wellbeing persists – urged on by traditions that stabilize healing as an ideal.
In this workshop, Dr. Akomolafe invites a reconsideration of the centrality of healing and investigates how some notions of healing get in the way of care. Suggesting that therapy is the political manufacture of the boundaries of the body, Dr. Akomolafe discusses the shadows of a trauma fundamentalism that is increasingly popular to contemporary expressions of care, and traces out a history of trauma that connects it to the rise of industrialization. His concept of “abtherapy” will also be examined.
Healing Through Compassionate Inquiry
Dr. Gabor Maté
Explore the hidden inner workings of your mental climate, understand the pressure that modern-day living exerts on your mind, and discover how to work with the physical impacts of trauma and stress using Compassionate Inquiry.
Read MoreHealing Through Compassionate Inquiry
Dr. Gabor Maté
Compassionate Inquiry is a psychotherapeutic method developed by Dr. Gabor Maté that reveals what lies beneath the appearance we present to the world. In this workshop, Dr. Maté will explore how Compassionate Inquiry can help unveil the level of consciousness, mental climate, hidden assumptions, implicit memories, and body states that form the real message that words both express and conceal.
Learn how this unique therapy modality can help you and your clients recognize the unconscious dynamics that run our lives and how to liberate ourselves from them. This powerful technique helps us access deep healing and transformation by cultivating presence, bringing attention to signals from the body, and creating a safe, sacred space between client and therapist.
Explore the hidden inner workings of your mental climate, understand the pressure that modern-day living exerts on your mind, and discover how to work with the physical impacts of trauma and stress in a live, interactive format guided by Dr. Maté.
Embracing Climate Change Emotions — a Crucial Step toward Human Survival
Barbara Easterlin, PhD
Skills training in mindfulness, compassionate listening, experiential art methods, emotional regulation specific to climate feelings, and steps to avoid burnout in a burning world.
Read MoreEmbracing Climate Change Emotions — a Crucial Step toward Human Survival
Barbara Easterlin, PhD
Climate change anxiety and eco-grief are on the rise, especially among young people. Sensing massive changes ahead, most people are not equipped to cope with the uncertainty of our ecological future, and instead slip into dissociation and other defensive modes. This includes polarizing, projecting blame, and endlessly ignoring a problem which experts say can be solved.
On the other hand, worry can be motivating if met compassionately and skillfully. Therapists, healers, educators, and others at the forefront of transformational thinking can play a crucial role in shifting
the energy bound up in fear and apprehension toward empowered and unstoppable action.
Join Climate Psychologist Barbara Easterlin on an experiential journey navigating the mental health dimensions of the climate and ecological crisis and the social justice inequities it reveals. Learn how psychology plays a pivotal role in crafting coping strategies, scaffolding informed optimism, nurturing resilience, and encouraging effective action.
This workshop will provide skills training in mindfulness, compassionate listening, art experiential methods, emotional regulation skills specific to climate feelings, and steps to avoid burnout in a burning world.
