Ecosattva Training, A Brave and Tender Reckoning.

 

Join us in a group to collectively study and discuss the Ecosattva Training<https://oneearthsangha.org/articles/pgm-post/ecosattva-training-v6/> developed by One Earth Sangha<https://oneearthsangha.org/> in collaboration with Buddhists teachers from many traditions, including Adam Lobel.

Mondays, every other week from January 8- April 15.
7:30-9:00 on zoom

The course is described as follows:

"The EcoSattva Training is an eight-part series designed to support you in developing your response, internal and external, to a changing world. We'll offer new insights from multiple Dharma traditions as well as the growing field of climate psychology as we soothe these tender bodies, hearts and minds. Supported by these teachings and one another, participants can discover and cultivate a way forward."


The course includes eight modules consisting of videos and supplementary readings.  Participants will be expected to listen to the videos in advance of the group meetings.  During our 90 minute meetings we will begin with meditation and then engage in discussion and inquiry using the structure suggested by the course as well as the inspirations that arise from our local group wisdom.


Our San Diego group will be facilitated by Ruth Wallen<https://www.ruthwallen.net/>  She is a senior teacher in the Shambhala tradition and has devoted her life to using the arts to promulgate ecological consciousness.  For the last decade she has been developing a practice of bearing witness to trees dying from ecological malaise.  She was a Lenz fellow at Naropa University exploring the use Buddhist practice to work with ecological grief.
