Chris Johnstone

I first trained with Joanna Macy in 1989 and have worked closely with her ever since, more recently co-authoring Active Hope with her. I live in the UK, and run Work That Reconnects workshops here, as well as a year long facilitator training and a distance learning course based on Active Hope.By background, I trained as a medical doctor, then worked for nearly twenty years in the addictions recovery field. I'm deeply interested in the psychology of change, resilience and fulfilment, and run a distance learning centre offering courses in skills linked to these. I'm also a musician and forest gardener.
