Quantum Thinking in a World in Hot Water: The Climate Emergency and Consciousness

How would it impact our life and the world around us if we decided to embrace the world of energy that quantum science points the way to? The Climate Emergency is being felt around the world this summer. Many of us may be experiencing the fear response in the face of this "global boiling". Christine explores the idea that the Climate Emergency is calling us to evolve beyond the fight/flight/fear response, and the shift that results when we choose to live as if we, and the world around us, is vibrating energy.

Finding Joy and Healing When Facing Death

Even in the midst of the existential crises of the Climate Emergency, other life challenges can arise.

Is It Cruel Optimism to Discuss Joy and Healing in the Climate Emergency?

Is it cruel optimism to hold the hope of joy and healing in a time of Climate Emergency and other planetary ecological, economic, and social crises? Cruel optimism is a term coined by Lauren Berlant, and used by Johann Hari, author of Stolen Focus, to describe a focus on individual responsibility that trains people to adjust to a morally unjust social system. Some self-help advice out there is a perfect example of this. Is this also true of the Climate of Joy podcast?
