Beyond Climate Grief: Cultivating Aliveness in a Time of Change


A 6-week group class series in partnership with The Hive Cincinnati led by Janna Diamond and Rev Chelsea MacMillan.

The despair a growing number of us experience as we witness the impacts of climate change is recognized by experts as climate or ecological grief. Yet, as overwhelming as this time may be, we are being called to greet the unknown and find new ways of navigating the web of interconnected crises.

What does it mean to be alive in a time of rapid change? When we explore our personal and collective grief, we can move toward transformation and compassionate action. And, as we deepen our capacity to be with discomfort, we can discover greater presence and healing.

In this course, join us as we:

  • Learn practical tools for shifting from fear to possibility

  • Create a culture that supports authenticity and connection

  • Center joy and creativity in the midst of upheaval

  • Connect to the wisdom of our bodies through movement, breath, and sound

We can’t do this on our own. Living in an interdependent world asks us to co-create new ways of radically caring for ourselves, each other, and the more than human world.

Please note: This will be a trauma-informed space rooted within an anti-oppression lens. This series is not designed as a therapeutic space, but as an interactive, dynamic program that aims to invite us into inner and outer transformation.
