Join us for a guided meditation with the imagination: a chance to meet, listen and share with others, and a space of nourishment once a month, live on Zoom. Take time to pause, step off the hamster wheel of life for an hour, and tune into what grounds and roots you, into a deeper and wider perspective. In that pause, you might just discover something of who you are, what you deeply desire, and what the world and these times are calling you into. Everyone is welcome – just bring your openness and curiosity, and of course your imagination!

‍

From Monday, 9 November – Friday, 20 November, 200 nations from around the world will engage in the annual UN Climate Summit in Turkey, what are known as the 'COP' (Conference of the Parties) meetings and negotiations.
Ahead of COP31, our November Imagine session, will invite us into a 're-imagining of civilisation'.
We both know and feel that our current way of being as humans on the planet is diminishing the flourishing of life for all (both human and other-than-human). Our call in these critical times is to enable a great 'civilisational transition' in myriad arenas of society - one which will move us out of the industrial growth model into what we might call 'ecological civilisation'.
In this imaginative prayer together, we will open space for the Spirit to inspire our vision and guide our response.  Let's listen together to how we're being invited to contribute our gifts to this creative movement!
