The Trembling Warrior: A guide for Reluctant Activists

4.9/5 (20363 ratings)

Description:Climate and society are unravelling, and people deeply concerned about life on Earth feel an urgent call to do something. But some are not natural warriors: they are poets, artists and dreamers; gentle sages, and those on a spiritual path, who don't relish the idea of battle. Gill Coombs celebrates, informs, and encourages 'reluctant activists', weaving stories and experience from those on the front line as well as wisdom and knowledge from writers, therapists, and politicians. Sensitive idealists will recognise many of the innate personal qualities explored here: the essential gifts they bring to the world, as well as their challenges. With the reluctant activist in mind, diverse personal narratives bring several forms of activism to life, offering ideas and information resourcing the Trembling Warrior to be active and effective in their own unique way, as the pressure cranks up. An insightful, soulful affirmation for sensitive idealists who feel vulnerable, but compelled to step up anyway, in these pivotal times.'Like childbirth or rock climbing, only someone who has experienced it can really tell you what it feels like. And long-time activist Gill Coombs knows exactly how it feels to be what she calls a 'trembling warrior', i.e. someone who feels called to speak out for what they believe is right but often finds it a hard—and/or scary—thing to do. Now, as we face the spectre of climate change, massive extinction of species, and possibly the end of all life on Earth, activism is more important than it has ever been. And the more sensitive one is to the world's pain, the more imperative it can feel to take some sort of action. So as we find our unique voices, take those risks and navigate our way through activism's twin hazards of despair and burnout, there has never been a better time for a book like this to appear. A beautifully written and comprehensive guidebook, filled with warmth, understanding, encouragement, reassurance…and lots and lots of good advice." ~ Marian Van Eyk McCain, author of Elderwoman: A handbook for the later-life journey, Editor of GreenSpirit magazine.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
