Finding Stillness in Action

A Conversation between Bobbi Allan and Claire Dunn

Passionate about spiritual practice and positive societal change, Bobbi Allan connected the two in 1984 when she read Joanna Macy’s first ‘Work that Reconnects’ book by torchlight in a tent in a rainforest on a meditation retreat. Since then Bobbi’s quest has been connection – linking nature, the personal, social and political. It has been a lifelong quest to create a culture of sustainable activism. After studying then teaching insight meditation and ‘engaged Buddhism’ for over 30 years, pioneering environmental and social justice campaigns and bringing up twins off-grid, Bobbi’s elder hood is one forged through passionate engagement with the world.

Bobbi will be in conversation with Claire Dunn on Saturday September 23 as part of The Weekly Service.

10.30am (for an 11am start) – 12.30pm

About The Weekly Service

The Weekly Service runs a weekly curated gathering on Saturday mornings (currently held in Thornbury) where people share stories, listen to music, pause for reflection and engage in conversation. The Weekly Service arose over a year and a half ago, out of a broad acknowledgement that at present ‘we’ are living through a time of significant change. The Weekly Service seeks to provide a space for dialogue and deeper discussion surrounding these significant shifts. More here.
