Finding Personal Resilience In the Sacred Wild

​This is an experiential and grounding gathering for climate care and self-care.

In the midst of climate change and uncertainty, how do we find resilience, hope, and grounding? Whatever spiritual or faith path you follow, you are welcome to join us in a practice, both ancient and modern, as we explore a new and remembered answer to this question.

​Our time together will be an embodied approach to resilience—listening not only with our minds that love to think and theorize our way through problems, but with our whole selves. You’ll be invited to wander the Black Creek ravine, pause, and notice creation as kin – all parts of the ecosystem are holy and connected to each other. Together, we’ll practice ways of tending our inner lives and calming our nervous systems so we can meet the climate crisis with renewed strength, deeper wisdom, and expanded capacity. Think of it as a sacred pause: a chance to refill your cup, share in community, and experience creation not just as scenery, but as family.

​If you’re curious about Wild Church – it’s a growing movement of family-friendly communities who step outside traditional walls to reconnect body, spirit, and earth. Rooted in ancient practices, predominantly of Celtic Chrisitan origin, yet open to all traditions, Wild Church gatherings weave ritual, creativity, breathwork, community and experiential practices with the language of wind, water, insects, animals, soil and trees. Your host, Sarah Peel, has been leading the Lynde Creek Wild Church in Whitby since 2022.
