The challenges we face can be
difficult even to think about. Climate change, the depletion of oil,
economic upheaval, and mass extinction together create a planetary
emergency of overwhelming proportions. "Active Hope" shows us how to
strengthen our capacity to face this crisis so that we can respond with
unexpected resilience and creative power. Drawing on decades of teaching
an empowerment approach known as the Work That Reconnects, the authors
guide us through a transformational process informed by mythic journeys,
modern psychology, spirituality, and holistic science. This process
equips us with tools to face the mess we're in and play our role in the
collective transition, or Great Turning, to a life-sustaining society.
