Time to take psychedelics seriously. Plant medicine is regaining its rightful place in holistic wellness.

From Tending the Roots website: The Communal Shift. We don’t heal alone. A dominant cultural paradigm conditions (many of) us to believe that the locus for o...ur experience of pain (emotional, physical, or spiritual) is isolated and individual rather than an expression or reflection of ancestral, intergenerational, social and historical (including personal history)wounds. These wounds are about more than trauma as it manifests in our physical experience (dis-ease in the bodymind), but speak also to the epidemic of loneliness, disconnection, division, dehumanization and non-belonging so many face. When we bring in context through events like this to the experience of trauma as it continues to shape experience and behavior, we nourish reconnection to birthright and inherited resilience and embodied wisdom; to a birthright and embodied experience of connection and belonging. ------------ I will be sharing at this time: Save the Date: April 23rd, 6 - 7:30pm EST; 3-4:30pm PST (Learning How to Dwell in Place: A Practice in Decolonization) Register for free: https://www.rootedandembodied.com/tending-the-roots-fest Please browse around the website and check out the amazing speakers and offerings.

I really hope you can join me in supporting this organization. Of all the amazing experiences I had in Africa, my time with them in the Masai Mara was the most inspiring. The community projects and support for sustainable indigenous development allows the Masai people to keep their cultural practices vibrant and live with pride and dignity.

Worth evey minute. Enjoy!

These may be common sense, but are still worth scrolling through. They may make the difference between an abuse victim opening up to support or suffering in silence.
