Description
Reclaiming Courage, Presence, and Connection in a Fear-Driven World
This half-day immersive workshop invites participants to discover Love as the foundation of inner authority—a disciplined force of transformation, not sentimentality. Through grounding practices, mindful reflection, music, and relational exercises, we’ll explore how Love organizes courage, repairs belonging, and guides us through personal and collective disruption.
Love helps us reconnect with clarity, courage, and connection. It teaches us to show up with steadiness, integrity, and presence—even when life feels loud. This is a space to move beyond burnout and into integrated, courageous living.
Learning Flow
Grounding – Brave Space poem and collective intention-setting
Inner Work – Naming fear and returning to Love
Outer Work – Practicing connection and forgiveness
Collective Work – Love as movement and closing ritual
This Workshop Is For:
Seekers yearning for deeper connection and embodied courage
Activists and organizers navigating fatigue, grief, or disillusionment
Artists and creatives exploring Love as a generative force
Faith-holders and spiritual practitioners committed to justice and repair
Skeptics and questioners curious about Love as a transformative ethic
Intended Outcome
Participants leave with renewed courage to practice Love daily, and a framework for relational repair, embodied presence, and collective care.
Intention of the Hive
When you join a Hive experience, you're invited into our intention to create a group experience that's inclusive, rooted in mindfulness, and dynamically relational. We aspire for each Hive experience to model these intentions, and even to refine them as we continue to learn how to gather in a way that's transformative! The embodiment of these intentions by Hive facilitators, Members, and class participants is what makes the Hive the unique and healing social container that many experience it to be.
