Joanna Macy's Work That Reconnects
“The Work That Reconnects helps people discover and experience their innate connections with each other and the self-healing powers of the web of life, transforming despair and overwhelm into inspired, collaborative action.”
– Joanna Macy
This workshop led by our Peacemaker Friend, Priyanka Sharma, is a group work designed by Joanna Macy to foster the desire and ability to take part in the healing of the world. Since its inception in the late 1970’s, it has helped thousands of people around the globe find solidarity and courage to act despite rapidly worsening social and ecological conditions. If you are worried about the state of the world and feel depleted by the enormity of the challenges facing us, this workshop will help you to reconnect with yourself and others and be heard in community. You will learn to use pain to fuel your wish for the betterment of the world in community.
In this workshop you will go through a spiral starting with gratitude, honor each other's pain, learn to see with new eyes and make plans for going forth based on the wisdom we gained from the previous steps. You will have the opportunity to share these in the community.
