Climate emergency - Power, influence, control

It is so easy to feel helpless and overwhelmed by the enormous threat that is climate change and so we tend to tip into denial rather than action but we have more power and influence than we think.  Here's how you can leverage your individual and our collective power to bring about the changes we need to make to secure the health of the planet and future generations.

Climate Emergency - a call for elders to support future generations

We have known since the 80s that climate change was in need of our attention and yet, we have either ignored it or tinkered around the edges of the massive changes that need to be made.  As elders it is our roll now to support the younger generations in any way we can in order to ensure that future generations survive and thrive.  Here's how.

Join me in coversation with Gary MacGowan who has built his life around cycling.  Not only has Gary cycled through 117 countries but he also brough the Tour De France to London, improved cycle routes in London and inititated the free bike scheme in the capital.

Here is the information Gary shared while we were talking:

  • The best websites for local groups and campaigns are Cycling UK www.cyclinguk.org and Sustrans www.sustrans.org.uk
  • For the best maps for cycling, download any of these Komoot, Viewranger, MAPS.ME or OS maps. 
  • If people want to plan a route to see how far it is, Komoot is excellent on a smart phone and on laptop, Ride With GPS is superb and free to use - just open an account and use it, if you then have the app to, the route will appear automatically in the app. Plan your route on Ride with GPS, using OSM Cycle, it has all the cycle routes.  But to start with, go straight to Komoot

What's your thing? - Archaeotherapy with Harriet Sams

I had never heard of archaeotherapy until this conversation with Harriet Sams so join me in learning about how connection to our ancestral land can bring back our sense of wholeness, healing, belonging and connection.

Want to find ‘your thing’? or want to find out more about my books, free resources, training and coaching head to : https://www.julieleoni.com/

Here are the links :

Radical Joy for Hard Times, ecospirituality charity, that attends to wounded places in the landscape. www.radicaljoy.org

The Order of Bards Ovates and Druids for whom I mentor: www.druidry.org

The Tariki Trust who I offer ecotherapy, archaeotherapy and ritual workshops through: https://www.tarikitrust.org/ecotherapy-training

The Climate Psychology Alliance: https://climatepsychologyalliance.org/

My personal ecotherapy blog: www.nwyfre.com

Blurb from the Tariki Trust:

Harriet Sams Harriet Sams is an archaeologist, ecotherapist, freelance lecturer, yoga teacher and spiritual Guide for the Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids, mother and student.

From a very young age, Harriet has been in close connection to the landscape; especially to ancestral messages that are all around us, written onto the landscape. On rare occasions, the Voice of the world speaks to her and calls her into Service and Harriet interprets these messages as the voice of the ecological Whole; indivisible between human ancestor and landscape, all speaking with one voice. Through this awareness, she has realised that the land itself is where the healing resides. Harriet’s work is all about helping participants to directly access the healing the land/ancestors can bring the individual, working as facilitator for this awareness and guide for support.

Druidry and Quakerism guide her work; aspects of these spiritual traditions weave themselves into her teachings and offerings.

She is currently undertaking a PhD in archaeotherapy with Bournemouth University, is on the advisory Boards for the Climate Psychology Alliance and for Radical Joy for Hard Times, an eco-spirituality charity.
