The Age of Overwhelm: Strategies for the Long Haul by Laura van Dernoot Lipsky
Berrett-Koehler Publishers, Inc.

ISBN 978-1-5230-9473-8

 

Laura van Dernoot Lipsky, author of The Age of Overwhelm; shows how a few subtle shifts can sustain us through being overwhelmed.  Currently we may be overwhelmed by work or school, our families or communities, caretaking for others or ourselves, engagement in social justice, environmental advocacy or civil service.  The author offers concrete strategies to help  mitigate harm, cultivate our ability to be decent and equitable, and act with integrity.  The Age of Overwhelm aims to ease the burden of overwhelm, restore our perspective, and give us strength to navigate what is yet to come. 
Join us in a book study to share perspectives and find balance together!

Each week participants will be expected to complete the assigned reading, respond to one or more prompts posted by the facilitator on the group’s discussion board, and engage with co-participants in discussing strategies.
