Spiritual Ecology Study Club

The Spiritual Ecology Study Club is a monthly community space to deepen and develop our perspectives in the work of reuniting people, the living world and the sacred. Over the year, we explore different themes related to spiritual ecology – offering curated study material, facilitated group meetings, and an ongoing online community.

Each month, participants are invited to explore and reflect upon a selection of stories – essays, podcasts and short films – by diverse teachers, authors and artists. The live sessions offer a space to deeply contemplate the material together, share our own stories and perspectives, and think about how to develop the themes in our own work.

This space is for people longing to dive beneath the surface of everyday engagement – and to dedicate the time to learn, think, be inspired and nourished in their practices.

The Study Club is hosted via Mighty Networks, and you can subscribe here.

There will be approximately 1-2 hours of study material offered each month. Each session will be 2 hours long.
