Active Hope Book Club

Event Overview

A Special Online Summer Event!

Find grounding, inspiration, and community in overwhelming times. Hosted by Barrie Risman

“Active Hope was the book that helped me bridge the gap between my inner life and the state of our world. It offered me a whole new way to understand and orient to what we are collectively living through. I can’t wait to explore it with you.” Barrie Risman

Why read Active Hope with us?

• Tools for Overwhelm: Practical ways to stay grounded when the news and the state of the world feels paralyzing.
•  A New Framework: Learn how to translate the values we cultivate in yoga into meaningful, regenerative action on behalf of life.
• Community Connection: A safe, welcoming space to share, listen, and find solidarity with like-minded seekers.
• Renewal & Replenishment: Discover how to engage with the world’s challenges without burning out your nervous system.

Let’s explore this together — and find out what becomes possible when we bring our whole selves to meet the challenges of our time.

Logistics & How it works:

We will meet twice via Zoom. I will guide a thoughtful discussion, share key insights from the book, and offer simple reflective practices. Each session will include accessible yogic practices and exercises drawn from the Work That Reconnects.

Everyone is warmly welcome! No prior yoga experience is required.

Join one or both sessions. Replay included when you sign up.

Once you sign up, you will receive a Zoom link and further details.
