The Work That Reconnects
THE WORK THAT RECONNECTS
Clare Power, a fellow Transitioner from the Blue Mountains, ran a day-long workshop based on experiential processes developed by Joanna Macy.
Through her training with Johanna Macey and her gentle yet firm approach to go to the hard places, we participated together in meditation, rituals, and creative processes in a way that helped to confront and honour the pain we felt for the world.
It was difficult and uncomfortable at times but ultimately empowering because we worked together through our doubts and fears.
Of all the dangers we face, from climate chaos to permanent war, none is so great as the deadening of our response… psychic numbing impedes our capacity to process and respond. In letting go of old defences we find truer community, and in community we learn to trust our inner responses to our world and find our power-Joanna Macy
