It can be difficult to process everything happening in the world today without becoming overwhelmed. So how do we manage? Dr. Lynne Sedgemore, author of Presence Activism, joins to discuss her upcoming book and how presence can help address a variety of difficult emotions, with a particular focus on climate anxiety. We also explore some of the common reactions to the environmental challenges facing our planet, and the role that hope can play in our response to them. Resources discussed in this episode:
