Using movement, writing, and art-based practices we will create a safe space to address some of the stress, fear, and pain that arise out of healthy response to volatile situations. When doing this stressful work, self-care becomes imperative! Many of us have experienced some degree of trauma of late, whether that’s conflict with police or the life circumstances that brought us to this movement in the first place. In this group we will take time to ground and nourish as well as to stay present with the discomfort that may arise when we slow down enough to feel the body’s response to these “unacceptable” situations. By slowing down to feel we give our nervous system a chance to release this stuck energy so we have more resources available for clear, poignant, and engaged action.
