Cultivating Climate Courage through Deep Time

In the Work That Reconnects, “Deep Time” refers to a sense of time that extends far beyond our lifetime. It includes all that has gone before  – that has shaped us and our world – and a sense of how our actions now will shape the future. Deep Time work arose to correct the current human focus on short-term goals such as the economic quarter, which tends to trap people in a fragmented present, cut off from the past and the future.

Deep Time activities:

· Help restore what our ancestors experienced - the companionship of past and future generations.

· Support alignment with longer ecological rhythms such as the rhythms of the seasons

· Bolster resilience

· tap into sources of strength and wisdom that lie within and around us.
