Navigating Emotions in a Violent World

What does it mean to sit with and tend to our grief as a regular practice rather than something to “get over” — so we can continue to sense and feel more deeply? How do we stay well amidst info overload and the increasingly fast pace of modernity — so we can contribute sustainably in ways that align with our values? How can we maintain our capacities to care for those we have responsibilities for and find things that bring us a bit more ease?

In this episode, Camille Sapara Barton invites us to dream with cultures of care and sense into embodied ways of being with our grief — both personally and with our communities.

Join us as we explore the nuances of confronting phone and social media addiction while continuing to stay informed about the world; the relationship between numbing for survival and sensing deeply as fuel for activation; the ways that capitalism and dominant cultures have molded people into becoming mechanized, “productive,” and obedient members of society — suppressing our attunement to our bodies and states of being — and more.

How might we engage in practices such as honoring our ancestors or creating altars that support a reconnection with our bodies, lands, and sensorial ways of knowing and healing?
