Spiral of WTR with Lydia

Interhelp is delighted to bring Lydia Violet Harutoonian to the greater Boston area for this two-day workshop that will feature a full spiral of the Work That Reconnects.

In these trying times, the Work That Reconnects can be such a huge support. The sixth Earth Leadership Cohort, a group in their twenties and early thirties, will be in attendance at this intergenerational workshop. 20 spaces are available for the general public.

About Lydia:

Lydia Violet Harutoonian is an Iranian-Armenian-American musician, educator, and facilitator devoted to cultural healing, ecological renewal, and the restoration of ancestral wisdom. For over 16 years, she has been a dedicated student of Joanna Macy, facilitating The Work That Reconnects across many communities, weaving together systems thinking, deep ecology, and emotional resilience in the face of global crisis.

Lydia is the founder of the School for The Great Turning, a learning community where ecological care, activism, and spiritual practice meet. Her work often focuses on diasporic healing and right relationship, creating spaces for people to reconnect with their cultural roots while engaging the challenges of our time. With training in ecopsychology and trauma-informed facilitation, she offers grounded emotional support to individuals and communities navigating burnout, grief, and the psychological weight of living in ecological crisis.

As a folk musician, Lydia also brings community song into the heart of her teaching, believing that music is a vessel for both grief and joy, memory and emergence. She has collaborated with artists and thought leaders such as Leah Song of Rising Appalachia and Dr. Lyla June Johnston, offering immersive programs that explore the personal and collective journey of waking up in a troubled world—and responding with fierce love.

Location and what's included:

The workshop will take place in the common room at Cambridge Cohousing which is a wheelchair accessible space. Lunch will be provided on both Saturday and Sunday.
