Hope In Action - Living Better with Less
Tue 27 Apr 2021 7:30 PM - 9:00 PM BST

Description
More isn’t always better. It has been proved that living with excessive amounts of stuff does not make us happy. Understanding this simple wisdom is central to ensuring a hopeful and regenerative future for people and planet.
Join Charles Eisenstein, Amisha Ghadiali and Jen Gale as they explore how we can live well with less as we work together to create a better world for all.
Hosted by The Resurgence Trust and the Network of Wellbeing (NOW), this event will include talks from these visionary speakers, space for discussion and an interactive Q&A. Part of the Resurgence and NOW Hope in Action series, it will be an exploration of how we can maintain hope, wellbeing and resilience while co-creating a brighter, more beautiful future.
Amisha Ghadiali is the founder of The Future Is Beautiful; a podcast, book and community - which inspires grounded optimism weaving together activism, spirituality, regeneration and creativity. Amisha offers The Beautiful Leadership Immersion and One to One Mentoring which holds space for integrating these shifts into the way we live, work and play.

Charles Eisenstein is an esteemed international teacher, public speaker and writer who explores anti-consumerism, interdependence, and how myth and narrative influence culture. According to Charles, global culture is immersed in a destructive “story of separation”, and one of the main goals of his work is to present an alternative “story of interbeing”. Focusing on a range of themes including civilisation, consciousness, money and human cultural evolution, he is the author of many essays and books, including ‘Sacred Economics’, ‘Climate: A New Story’ and ‘The More Beautiful World our Hearts Know is Possible'.
