Rooted & Resourced: A 1-Day Retreat for Change-Agents
Are you longing for a chance to recharge and renew your commitments in solidarity with others? Join GWI for a meaningful, joyful one-day retreat to find a rooted sense of belonging and to resource the important work ahead.
This one-day retreat is a chance to take intentional time away from day-to-day challenges to be in community with others who are working towards just futures and regenerative practices. We have three goals: to build relationships that bolster our access to mutual support, to refresh practices that help move us collectively towards durable and positive change, and to renew our energies in an environment crafted to open our hearts and light up our vitality.
GWI facilitators will offer a nourishing set of collaborative sessions, designed to balance energizing full group experiences and time to talk in smaller groups. We will invite participants in spaces that will allow everyone to share, learn and listen; we will provide time for renewing our energies; and we will offer space to practice the skills required for joyful, effective, cooperative action.
We will be drawing from practices that include: setting working agreements; non-violent communication and empathy share; clarity on the vision that animates us; and tools for how to hold space and use equitable meeting practices in your organizing efforts or workplaces. We will end the day sharing dinner together at a local restaurant.
