“The Work that Reconnects Moving Beyond Despair & Finding our Power”
20/21st September 2008 at Lewes New School
At this weekend workshop we will be finding the heart of Transition by embodying our Deep Ecological Self:
The Work that Reconnects is an empowerment approach developed by Joanna Macy. This is a form of group work helping us connect with the web of life. It gives us energy and focus to respond to the current challenges faced by our planet, to make positive changes towards a liveable and sustainable future. The workshop is an enjoyable way to connect more deeply with others who share our concerns, and to inspire and strengthen our resolve to keep moving forward.
Our facilitators are Larry Butler & Tania Dolley.

How does Heart and Soul fit in with TTL?
We aim to offer people the opportunity to explore personal and inner change, in response to the outer environmental change at this transitional time.
We aim provide safe spaces where people can connect and express through mind, heart and soul, their personal experience in response to the ups and downs of transition.
We aim to promote meaningful events to provide a platform for connection and to build a supportive and resilient community.
We are inclusive and welcome people from all walks of life, we are an integral part of TTL and are available as a resource.
Initiative one
INNER TRANSITIONS
As we undergo who knows what kind of change in the coming months and years, how will we respond emotionally and spiritually to these changes. What support do we have as a community that is uniting and accessible to all?
In response to this question, as a first initiative the Heart and Soul group are holding monthly sessions. (see below) They are loosely structured, to create a safe, open and confidential space, so that individuals can share whatever arises from mind, heart and soul, in an atmosphere of mutual acceptance.
Monthly Oekos group
the second Wednesday in every month from 7.30 (prompt) to 8.30.
What is an Oekos Group? Oekos from the Greek, means home, or coming together. The Oekos Group is a time for getting together to be 'at home' with ourselves and others. The Heart and Soul group hosts this regular monthly session, just for an hour, to check in with each other to reflect about how we feel about these changing times, in a safe and respectful way, and inspiring ourselves to draw on our highest and best.
The group is different every time, but the format and principle of supporting each other stays the same - See you there.
