Community Climate Café

with Sarah Cronin and Clara Schroeder

Holding Ourselves and Our Climate Emotions with Compassion

How do we stay grounded and hopeful in the face of the climate crisis?

Join Sarah Cronin and Clara Schroeder for an evening of mindful reflection and collective support at the SF Dharma Collective.

In this 90-minute Climate Café, we’ll turn to meditation, journaling, and dialogue to process climate emotions and cultivate connection and resilience.

This is a welcoming, non-judgmental space for anyone seeking to process climate emotions and reconnect with community and purpose.

Come as you are. No prior meditation or climate experience needed.

Space is limited to maintain intimacy and depth.
