SUSTAINABILITY Workshop
Monday August 7 – Friday August 11, 2023
Sustainability has become a ubiquitous catch-phrase – what does it actually mean? We have sustainable packaging and sustainable products but can we also imagine sustainable cultures, sustainable rhythms, and sustainable relationships?
The Sustainability workshop explores the deeper meaning of sustainability through imagery, dreaming, and movement practices. Situated in a forest at the Talbenblau retreat, the workshop space itself is active participant in our work, and many exercises will be done with our forest partner, with free time for your own personal wanderings and dreaming in nature.

The Sustainability workshop will be held at the Seminarhaus Taubenblau retreat center in Brandenburg, Stolzenhagen on the edge of the natural Uckermark region, in the Lower Oder Valley National Park, just an hour and a half away from Berlin by train or car.
