I was asked to write an article for Resurgence and Ecologist magazine, for theirJan/Feb 2024 issue, themed on ‘Hope and Enchantment’. Resurgence is a really beautiful magazine. If you have any interest in how we can live more conscious, intentional and regenerative lives, and the people who are working to impact positive change in the world, then I really encourage you to check it out.

In my article, The Dark Before Dawn, I share the story of my own struggles down in the darkness - a long period of deep depression, but also the subsequent awakening experience, that I understand were inextricably linked. Because of this, I’m filled with hope that, despite a lot of darkness currently in the world, I believe it’s specifically because of our collective pain that humanity will find a way to break through to a higher level of existence.

You can read the full article as a free preview on the Resurgence website, or buy the physical copy from stockists around the UK.
