ACTIVE HOPE FOR DIFFICULT TIMES

Teacher: Tsunma Tsondru
Cost: 2 days accommodation + R450 surcharge
Dates: Friday 02 May 2025 - Sunday 04 May 2025

In the face of stresses both planetary and personal - climate change, biodiversity loss, societal upheaval - cultivating inner resilience and hope becomes not just personal, but deeply ecological. Practices like meditation help quiet the mind and ground the nervous system, allowing us to respond to crisis with clarity rather than fear. Reconnecting with nature deepens our sense of belonging to the Earth, reminding us that we are not separate from the systems we seek to protect. And in moments of wonder and awe - whether in the stillness of a forest, the glitter of a starry sky, or the simplicity of meditation - we tap into something greater than ourselves, igniting a reverence that fuels both courage and compassion and active hope..

The weekend will be a poetry-inspired time of meditation practice, deep-time walking and creative imagining, with a touch of morning yoga.

Total cost depends on the type of accommodation selected. Please email bookings@brcixopo.co.za to make a reservation.
