The Joanna Macy Framework

The Joanna Macy Framework is a way to understand and address the emotional impact of large-scale challenges like environmental degradation and social inequality. It encourages individuals to recognize feelings like grief and frustration, see them as a natural response, and use that awareness to foster resilience and action. Macy promotes a process called the "Work That Reconnects," which helps people connect deeply with the issues, their own intuition, and community, transforming feelings of despair into empowerment. Overall, it’s about acknowledging our emotional responses and channeling them into constructive efforts for positive change.
