Like everyone else during this time of COVID-19 pandemic, The New School has changed direction, and we’re preparing programming for you that will be presented online. More coming soon about that.
In the meantime, check here or our social media pages (Facebook or Instagram) for recommendations for podcasts and videos that satisfy the intellect and bring beauty to the soul.
Finding Meaning and Sitting with Grief
Looking for audio or video content that feeds the soul? Looking to find meaning in and look at the grief that is arising from the suffering in today’s world ?
The New School has been honored to host four conversations with Francis Weller—psychotherapist, writer and soul activist. His community rituals, writings, and words encourage us to tap into the well of community grief about the state of the world, finding strength and meaning.
