She moves through the party like a dancer, graceful, poised. The sun is warm on her skin and the air is fresh and she wants for nothing. Wait. Who’s that?

“The deeper the despair, the more intense the hope. That is the dialectic of hope. The negativity of despair deepens hope. The higher hope soars, the deeper its roots. In this, it differs from optimism. Optimism lacks negativity. Amid deep despair, absolute hope makes action possible again. Absolute hope involves an unshakeable belief that there is a sense in things. It is only this belief in sense that gives us orientation and puts us on a sure footing.” - Byung-Chul Han, The Spirit of Hope.

It’s a wild time to be alive. The certainties we’ve relied on to find collective solutions are dying at a rapid rate.

I’m running a special event with Josh Schrei of The Emerald in London on June 17. It's already 60% sold two days after launch, so book soon if you want to come! I’m also running a one day retreat on May 17 in London with my friend Clive Selwyn called Polarity and Partnership, an embodied process exploring healthy polarity between the sexes. If you want to host a screening of the first Kainos documentary ‘Crossroads’ for your friends or community in June, let us know through this form. Immigration.
