Conscious Action alongside Flick Electric Co. and Good magazine explore how to make choices that are aligned with our values and within our budgets.
Do you have a set of personal values you base your choices on?
Do you find making choices that align with those values difficult because of factors out of your control?
There is often a conflict for us, especially when it comes to our values around the environment.
During this event we’ll explore the opportunities we have to make conscious choices on a daily basis; how to make choices we can stand behind and be proud of; and how to generate more compassion for others making choices we don’t necessarily agree with.
Come along to meet like-minded individuals, join an interactive discussion with two guest speakers, and for mindfulness, sharing and action setting.
DON'T MISS OUT! The first 50 tickets purchased will also include a Luxe Goodie Bag from the partners of Good magazine.
