ZOOM LINKLara StruckmanWe will explore the importance of community, presence, and using trauma informed tools to build emotionally resilient individuals and groups to rebuild and restore societal structures and systems from a place of love rather than lack. We will look at ways diverse traditions have been used as a spiritual framework for social justice and how we can sustain our activism through restorative practices. Threads of spiritual practice will be interwoven to remind us of the spiritual roots of activism that have built our foundation in many ways forgotten. We recognize and welcome those from different and varied backgrounds, experiences, and identities to begin to heal from the different ways we each experience trauma whether that is by being complicit in a place of privilege or experiencing discrimination or oppression and how we can meet ourselves wherever we are in the system in order to walk towards a more just and loving world together.
