Grief and Grace, The Work That Reconnects
with Margo van Greta
From Sat. 15 April 2023

'Grace happens when we act with others on behalf of our world.' Joanna Macy
  • Would you like to join a safe space to collectively process the fear and pain around the deepening crisis of this unprecedented time? 
  • Would you like new perspectives that  help you to clarify your place and activity in the world?
The challenges we face sometimes when you look at the world around us are huge. It can be devastating to be confronted with the climate crisis, and its effects on life on planet earth. You may experience frustration, anger, despair, numbness, or simply the wish to turn away from it all.
Or you may choose a different response. Every crisis also is an opportunity to generate our resilience, to bring forth our courage, creativity and care. It may ask you to dig deeper into your own inner resources. “Be the change you want to see in the world” said Mahatma Gandhi.
You don’t have to do this alone. You can link up with a growing number of people, organisations, and networks who contribute to a regenerative world, with creativity, skill and dedication. You too can be part of the Great Turning, contributing to positive change, in your own unique way.

Includes Full Spiral 
In this online course you will engage with The Work That Reconnects, originated by Joanna Macy. We use the format of the Spiral as our framework. You will focus on GRATITUDE in your life, building up resilience. You will explore HONOURING OUR PAIN for the world, as grieving is an essential part of stepping into wholeness. You will shift your perspective though SEEING WITH NEW EYES, and integrate this in your life. In GOING FORTH, you explore your vision of the world you do want to live in, and identify steps you are willing and able to take, no matter how small or large.
