TONIGHT! Active Hope for Apocalyptic Anxiety: A Mindfulness Workshop
Monday, Oct. 17th
@6:00-7:00pm
Location:Greg Pavillion
How can we respond to our feelings and act for positive change when we feel overwhelmed by the weight of the world? Hilary Martin Himan, Director of Spiritual Life, will introduce you to a mindfulness practice called Active Hope. Developed by Joanna Macy, a Buddhist, and Chris Johnstone, Active Hope differs from hopefulness in that it doesn’t require our optimism. Through reflection and paired sharing, you will come away with a concrete mindfulness tool that will help you face our unraveling world with resilience and courage.
