Your Invitation to A Free Embodiment Event For Our Mental Health
Dear friends,
Last year I have participated in the Embodied Trauma Conference in February.
It was amazing!
🌄 That event was deeply meaningful to me. One of my primary intentions was to understand how to humanize experience in the topics they explored, to see how I can bring context to experience and illuminate the link between dimensions of experience - personal, interpersonal, communal, historical/cultural - and the trauma imprints these leave.
👉 I have been practicing embodiment for many years but I wanted to get a better insight into how others are doing this to....heal and improve their lives.
That said, the arch of the event bent towards resilience and respect for these beautifully designed bodies and their intelligence and wisdom.
I knew as that event closed that I wanted to have a follow-up and see if there will be any this year!
What I know is that: from the womb of the Embodied Trauma Conference, the Rooted Global Village (an online community) was born, and I'm proud to share the event this community is hosting for the public, called:
Tending the Roots: A 4-Day Odyssey of Resilience & Reimagination, Culture & Community
It's a different kind of trauma conference! Prepare your brain to understand more about yourself!
This FREE event is open to the public, and you need to be registered to join them and get the details. (You can register right here.) This time the focus is on liberation, and what unblocks our life energy (impacted by trauma and oppression).
They have some incredible speakers, teachers, wisdom-keepers, and scholar-activists joining us, such as Gabor Mate, Nkem Ndefo, Resmaa Menakem, Dr. Bayo Akomolafe, Leticia Nieto, and Kai Cheng Thom, to name a few.
I still feel trauma-focused healing is important, and contextualizing and humanizing trauma (and the many experiences that can thwart the flow of our life energy) is important, but for this event, their focus is on what liberates.
Does that sound exciting to you?
I hope so. You can expect educational and experiential workshops, and also music, movement, art (storytelling, dream tending), and engagement with the creative and imaginal as liberation praxis.
Register to join them from April 21st-24th for this free event!
Oceans of love,

Wow this sounds amazing. Ill share with the NM community. I love Bayo Akomolafe. The work on trauma and embodiment is incredible. Yoga is definitely a good way to heal from trauma and come into the body but i know other somatic arts are just as viable. Thanks so much for sharing.
Your welcome.
I've misspelled the #mentalhealthawareness last time so I wanted to come with a gift this time :))
Tai Chi is what I do during the summer, grounding, a bit of Yoga, daily Qigong ...I hope this article will make ppl see the event and attend. I am here to guide.

This looks brilliant. I think the timing is absolutely perfect, it's exactly what is needed right now. I like the idea of liberating ourselves from trauma, and creativity is certainly a great way to experience that.
Thank you so much for sharing this. 🤗💚
