SB'19 Detroit Program Detail

Many sustainability professionals are so busy seeking to save the world that they can end up leading unsustainable lives and burning out. The growing recognition that we are facing a planetary emergency is only adding to feelings of anxiety and even despair. Yet we all know that we are most effective when we are calm, energized and insightful. This experiential and interactive workshop will give you the tools to meet our many social, environmental and economic challenges while staying balanced, playful and in good spirits. The practices of the workshop are based on the teachings of the Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh, considered the father of mindfulness in the West and a long-time environmental activist.
