Webinar: “Integrating activism and holistic self-care”

Led by Elan Shapiro tomorrow at 11am . . .

Sunday, Feb 20th, 11:00am to 12:30pm (via Zoom)

This webinar will be recorded

Activism, so essential to countering the rampant destruction of our common life by big money, has been shifting gradually from a self-sacrificing mindset with burnout tendencies, to one that values joy, self-care, community, and solidarity. This shift also emphasizes the many ways that activism can engage each person’s unique skills and creativity. In this highly participatory circle, we will be inspired by various examples of this shift, especially from black feminism; practice skills that can make activism more sustainable; and support each other to step out of passivity into nurturing engagement.

We’ll be led in this workshop by Elan Shapiro, who has been involved with various forms of activism, psycho-spiritual practice and conscious community for the past 50 years. Elan’s educational programs focus on drawing out people’s wisdom through creative reflection and small group support.
