How do we navigate the turbulent times we live in? When is it time to act and when is it time to be still? How can we tap into our body’s natural resources and learn to respond rather than react? How can we create more love and more justice for ourselves and for others? What do we want to transform? In this experiential session, we will learn more about trauma, the nervous system, and the power of embodiment toward individual and structural transformation and personal and collective healing. The activities that we will be doing are accessible tools that you can take with you to practice in your way, in your time, in your life, in your body. Drawing inspiration from yoga, Black feminist texts, and the Embody Lab’s Embodied Social Justice program, we will practice a variety of activities that incorporate mindfulness, breathing, centering, grounding, and mindful movement. This session is a “challenge by choice” and “brave space,” meaning that you should take care of yourself and you may choose to opt out of any activity at any time. Fall 21 Critical Self-Care Series Meditation and Mindfulness as Self-Compassion & EmbodiedMovements for Resilience, Resourcing, and Transformation Sponsored by WICCD and the Health Equity &Community Wellness Collaborative Self-care is more than pedicures and mimosas—it is avital part of taking care of ourselves and our communities.
