On World Mental Health Day 2024, the focus is on mental health in the workplace.
At Psychology for a Safe Climate we understand how climate change impacts our holistic health – including our emotional, social, and mental health – at work just as much as at home!
One of PSC’s ongoing, core offerings to support mental health is our Climate Cafe program.
Climate Cafés are in-person or online gatherings, where participants openly discuss their thoughts, feelings, worries, fears, or hopes about the climate crisis, in a non-judgemental, advice-free space where the focus is on deep listening.
As our Climate and Mental Health Manager, Christie Wilson, says:
“Climate Cafés are a kind process; they offer space for exploring non-hierarchical systems of communication and practice of deep listening to others and the quiet voice within ourselves, nested in place and in honour of Dr Miriam Rose’s work of Dadirri.”
