Active Hope – Taster session

Presenter(s) Bio

Jeannie runs Active Hope groups, reconnecting people with "nature". She finds this work profoundly meaningful; the exercises creatively and respectfully enable people to open up and to reflect. The work gives people a sense of gratitude, empowerment and belonging to a community; to stand up and to do what they are called to do even in the face of collapse; to engage where previously they had felt hopeless and impotent; to take good care of themselves. Core to this work is the importance of reconnecting back to our deeper selves, our community and to the natural world; to be in a healthy relationship with nature not its dominator; to realise our interconnectedness to all beings, human and more-than-human. Jeannie is a Leadership Coach, a Facilitator and Trainer. She has run many leadership development programmes in the outdoors in North Wales. She is committed to working with people to explore how to respond to climate change in sustainable and creative ways. Her coaching provides a reflective space for people to learn from their experiments with new behaviours in their daily lives. This process engages the whole person (mind, body and emotions). Through this process people become even more impactful, resilient and authentic.
