ABSTRACT

This chapter narrates incidents of eloquent encounter with other-than-human creatures and examines the impact of such incidents in both the content and process of therapy. It suggests that such incidents have particular significance within the context of climate emergency.

The Zone restores a sense of being ‘at home’ on the Earth. This offers relief from the stress of climate-anxiety and complements and invigorates activism. It might instil a vision of a new ecological culture.
