Grieving the 6th Great Mass Extinction and Making the Change

Teaching Webinar

Saturday the 25th of April

12 noon Pacific Time

It is now understood that we are living in the 6th great mass extinction (Anthropocene extinction). The beings of nature and even the balance of the environment is under attack from humanity's Disconnection Sickness. The extinction driven by people's disconnection is causing climate change, destruction of wetlands, deforestation, overfishing, ocean acidification, increasing consumption, and the destruction of critical habitats. As a species we are overexploiting the natural resources and creating destructive climate change-induced shifts in ecosystems.

Our natural relatives are the ones who endure the brunt of humanity's Disconnection Sickness. Extinction rates are up 100–1,000 times higher than natural background levels. Approximately 1 million species are currently threatened by extinction, with significant losses expected by the end of the century.

For those who feel a deep connection with nature, this loss can be devastating. It can make compassionate and sensitive people feel anger and great sadness about the state of humanity. This grief can become a heavy burden affecting our lives and worldview. Grieving the destruction of nature, focusing on maintaining a healthy alignment with life, and enacting changes to support life that is needed, is of the utmost importance. 

From a Helpers Mentoring Society Lineage perspective, the relationship between the human family and our natural relatives holds great wisdom. Through deep connection to the environment and the beings of nature we can come to understand and actualize our humanity in truly helpful ways. We can become a force of nature that restores balance, that heals the ecosystem and supports the abundance and diversity of all life. 

In this webinar, we will explore understanding ways to grieve in a healthy manner as we navigate the 6th great mass extinction upon this Earth, how to stay in alignment and support life, and how to enact humanity's healing to return to balance with nature.
