We are living through an unwell time.

And more and more, that unwellness is noticeable in our rooms, our meetings, our classrooms, our circles, our retreats, our client spaces, our organizing spaces, and our communities.

People are agitated. Grief is close to the surface. Conflict is not theoretical. Harm happens. Power is present. Nervous systems are carrying more than many of our containers were designed to hold.

So what do we do when things get sticky?

How do we stay without collapsing, controlling, disappearing, spiritual bypassing, or outsourcing what is ours to hold?

How do we become more practiced at being unwell together?

IN THIS FREE WEBINAR, WE’LL EXPLORE A LIVE, ORGANIC CONVERSATION ON THE FOLLOWING TOPICS:

what belongs to the facilitator, what belongs to the group, and what belongs to the larger systems moving through the room

why conflict, contraction, and disintegration are not signs that something has gone wrong

how micro-choice points can help us interrupt familiar patterns

how ritual, ceremony, somatic practice, and ancestral technologies can support us in staying, loving, grieving, repairing, and becoming

how to tend groups and community spaces in the midst of ongoing crisis

what it means to practice Beloved Community when no one knows what TF to do

THIS IS FOR YOU IF

  • you facilitate, teach, gather, hold space, organize, coach, lead, heal, counsel, or care for others

  • you are noticing more agitation, rupture, grief, collapse, conflict, or overwhelm in the spaces you hold

  • you want to build skill without pretending there is a perfect script for crisis

  • you are tired of “safe space” promises that ignore power, conflict, harm, and accountability

  • you are longing for practices that are embodied, relational, spiritually rooted, and sustainable

YOU’LL LEAVE WITH:

  • a clearer sense of what is yours to hold and what is the group’s to practice together

  • questions and practices for creating choice points when things get sticky

  • a more grounded frame for conflict, accountability, and repair

  • an invitation to consider what you are ritualizing in this particular season of unwellness

  • info about our deeper four-part Unwell Together series beginning August 25
