How have plants and humans co-evolved for millennia? How might our plant relationships teach us about our landscapes and ecological communities, support our bodies in their ecosystems, and provide new perspectives and pathways towards growth and healing?

We decided to celebrate the Spring Equinox by opening up our member-only Spiritual Ecology Study Club up to all.

The Spiritual Ecology Study Club is a monthly space for deepening perspectives and practices in the work of reuniting people, the living world and the sacred.

In this session participants explored the interconnectedness of nature, identity, and relationships. Priya emphasised the importance of recognising the interconnectedness of all living beings. Participants also shared their unique viewpoints on the interconnectedness of environmental issues with social justice and personal experiences. They emphasised the need to prioritise nature and focus on the energy that brings people together, while also acknowledging the complexities of grief, trauma, and language in social justice movements. Through their conversations, participants collectively emphasized the need for empathy, care, and thoughtful language in addressing these complex issues.
