ECO ANXIETY: HOW TO DEAL WITH OUR FEAR OF CLIMATE CHANGE

uncover how to Deal with fear and uncertainty around environmental change and disasters!

Overwhelmed by a struggling planet?

As the climate emergency becomes more real and more spoken about, some of us also start to worry more.

​The scenery around us changes, scientists put pressure on governments and citizens, new deadlines are imposed, and time seems, now more than ever, too little.

This combination of warnings and tangible changes forces us to confront things that are more easily ignored otherwise: vulnerability, distance, lack of control, and death.

Does this sound like you?

• thinking about the state of our planet makes you feel anxious about the future
• you worry that it is too late for our planet and catastrophize about possible scenarios
• even when doing everyday things, you worry about how your actions impact the planet
• your worry about uncertainty of the planet’s future can paralyze you with fear
• you constantly think about how the end to our existence is near.

Then this course is exactly what you need!

​Don’t worry, this course will not aim to scare you even more!

On the contrary, it will help you understand and process how we, humans, react to unknown threats related to our roots, our planet, and our existence.

Instead of fear, anxiety, and panic, how would it feel to...?

• Be able to go from awareness to taking action instead of getting paralyzed with fear?
• Find purpose and meaning instead of catastrophizing and worrying?
• Have a more healthy and balanced outlook on our planet instead of going into extremes?

There is great potential in fear, anxiety and grief.
Letting this potential paralyze you is not helpful to anyone.

I understand that you care deeply about our planet and our lives on it and I don't think you should care any less.

​You just need to learn new ways to look at tragedies and our human nature.​
