This workshop invites participants to explore and address eco-anxiety through creative expression, guided by healing plants.
Whether we call it eco-anxiety, climate distress, ecological grief or another name, there’s no denying the weight of emotion that can overwhelm anybody faced with the bad news impacting our planet. As powerless as we may sometimes feel, that very emotion can in fact be our friend.
In this group workshop, we will work through ways to understand and work through eco-anxiety, and in the process invite healing plants to be our guides as we write, scribble and splash with wild plant inks and explore what emerges.
從氣候焦慮到與大地相互交融 ：與植物療癒心靈
「生態焦慮」、「氣候困擾」、「生態悲痛」或任何其他名稱，無論我們如何稱呼，都無法改變在面對地球的種種壞消息時，那沉重得足以壓垮所有人的情緒。儘管無力感總是在偶爾中浮上心頭，但其實這種情緒亦可以成為我們的助力。
在這個小組工作坊中，我們將深入探討生態焦慮，並學習應付它的方法。過程中將邀請植物成為我們的嚮導，帶領我們嘗試用由植物所製成的墨水書寫、塗鴉，在墨水飛濺之間探索其中的奧秘。
The workshop fee includes general admission to the Green Women Festival, granting access to talks, booths, and goodie bags. The workshop will be conducted bilingually. 工作坊費用包括參加綠色女性節的基本入場券，允許進入演講、展位和禮包。工作坊將以雙語進行。
