It is clear that we should live more climate-consciously. But where can you start yourself? A specialist explains how mindfulness turns a more climate-friendly lifestyle into personal gain.
When crises pile up, there is an unfortunate tendency to isolate oneself internally, notes coach Dominique Ellen van de Pol. “The many crises of the last few years have exhausted our strength and attention,” she explains. She specializes in the topics of mindfulness and stress reduction with a particular interest in sustainable consumption and lifestyle. This could lead to even people who see themselves as climate-conscious falling into a kind of lethargy and making little effort to live a climate-friendly lifestyle, says van de Pol.
