THE HEART OF ACTIVISM
A weekend in the wood to pause, to find reflection and nourishment and renewed inspiration for yourself or your team
@ Hazel Hill Wood near Salisbury, 16th to 17th of June 2017 (Fr. 4.00pm – Sa.6.30pm) £125, incl. food and accommodation; Consessions available
Being an activist often means facing the challenges of working on your own, struggling for money, finding support for your projects or keeping up the inspiration and motivation to make your ideas resilient and successful. These two days give you the rare chance to pause and consciously take time to look, reflect and celebrate with others on the joys and challenges of this work. We will explore processes from Art of Hosting, Dragon Dreaming Project Design, Deep Ecology and other philosophies to get in touch with your inner truth and passion, access the collective wisdom of the group and explore nature-based resilience skills on individual and group level. Through being in the wood and being in community with others who are on a similar path, you will find new inspiration and insights for your projects, recharge your batteries and find a healthier way to relate to yourself, your colleagues and your dreams, ideas and projects that are part of the change.
