Sun July 15: Narrative and Action

PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE NOT IN OUR USUAL LOCATION FOR THIS WEEK’S MEETING- WE WILL BE IN Sidney Smith Hall, 100 St George St., Room 2111.

Our events are held every Sunday at 11 am

How do our stories affect our engagement with societal issues, and how can we use stories for positive impact? We will begin with a story to set the stage for an open discussion about narrative. The invitation for group participants is 1) to explore how our own narratives influence our responses to world issues, and 2) to consider how narratives can both mitigate distress over the state of the world and inspire action.

The meeting will be led by Lindsay Kochen, who works at a mindfulness-based psychotherapy practice. In addition to her training in trauma-focused healing modalities, Lindsay has a background in outdoor education, community health research, supportive housing advocacy, and street outreach. She enjoys learning alternative healing practices and honouring the body-mind-spirit connection through music and art.
