The Spiral of the Work That Reconnects is a group process that helps people face the realities of our time with honesty, courage, and care. Moving through gratitude, honoring our pain for the world, seeing with new eyes, and going forth, the Spiral offers a ritual framework for transforming despair into energy for action. As a Work that Reconnects facilitator, my role has been to interpret and adapt this body of work, carrying forward the teachings of Joanna Macy and other collaborators while shaping them for the communities I serve. In facilitation, I hold the container, guide participants through the Spiral’s stages, and adapt practices so the work feels alive, accessible, and responsive to the moment.
