Off the Shelf Festival: Weathering - Ruth Allen

Sat 19 October 2024 , 5pm-6pm

Millennium Gallery

An evocative exploration of the lessons the earth can teach us about grounding, resilience and recovery, from a geologist turned pioneering psychotherapist.

 

Rocks and mountains have withstood aeons of life on our planet. In Weathering, Ruth Allen demonstrates how geology can offer a new way of thinking about our own changes. In a world shaken by physical and political disasters, Weathering argues for a deeper understanding of the ground beneath our feet to better serve ourselves and the world we live in. 

  

This event is part of Off the Shelf: Festival of Words from the University of Sheffield. The full festival programme is available here: https://offtheshelf.org.uk/events/
