Mindfulness For Climate Stress

Have you experienced stress or anxiety when thinking about climate action? Do you feel like the more aware you are about our planet, the more concerned you become?

Todays' climate and planetary crisis can quickly become overwhelming and we find ourselves unable to move into action. Climate stress, also known as eco-anxiety, is a growing concern as we become more aware of the impacts of climate change. It can manifest as worry, fear, anger, grief, or even despair about the future of the planet.

Have you tried mindfulness as a practice to manage these difficult emotions?

While mindfulness meditation may not directly solve climate change, it can play a significant role in supporting climate action and environmental consciousness, as Prof. Christine Wamsler from Lund University shows in her research.
