Join us for an experiential three-part live series featuring Monastic and Lay teachers from the Zen and the Art of Saving the Planet Online Course.

As we continue to bear witness to the impacts of the climate crisis – and the wider polycrisis – many of us are feeling despair and powerlessness in the face of a world on fire. How can we tend to our ecological / planetary grief, find the strength and stability to help cool the flames – both internally and in the world around us? Is it possible to maintain hope and resilience in the face of forces that seem to be pulling in the opposite direction of a more just future?

This short series will be an experiential taster of some of the teachings explored deeply in the Zen and the Art of Saving the Planet (ZASP) 7-week online course. Find out more below, and register here to join us for this series.
