Join me and Brandon Ruiz of @yucayekefarms for a digital workshop on Healing from Grief through Herbs and Astrology.

All funds raised will be sent to Badr's Family Fund to evacuate their family from Gaza to Egypt. You can read more details or donate directly at tinyurl.com/BadrsFund

In this class we will discuss grief and grieving from the viewpoint of an herbalist and astrologer. This digital 3-hour workshop will cover plants native to Palestine as well as many others used for grief and grieving and we will discuss the astrology behind these plants and the medicines they bring us.

I will start by discussing some psychology concepts about how we relate to others, focusing on a sense of belonging versus separation. Then, I will discuss my personal experience with age and other people's projections toward me. I will conclude by bringing up Lama Rod Owens, a black queer Buddhist teacher, and his teachings around love and rage, as well as Tibetan Buddhist teachings about the illusory nature of phenomena.

Guiding you through filling out these sensory resilience toolkits for general chaos, Anxiety, and Depression and describing when to use these toolkits. Email [email protected] for digital access to the toolkits.

What the title says

A blog post I wrote about the cultural loss of darkness. Sit in the dark and listen

Explaining my graph that I made which focuses on cycles of life, death, and transformation for collective human evolution in a Somatic animist framework, found at https://tinyurl.com/yxnx9kfd

Discussing intergenerational trauma given the recent white violence toward black bodies. Discussing dissociation as a mechanism that allows trauma to continue, and upregulating, in a cultural Somatics framework, as anti-racist action for white people to take. Discussing the relative and the absolute. Conditions of a lifetime and racism vs the framework of the nervous system and unconditionality.

For those who already have an embodied sense of their body through body scan, this meditation, sensing into the three different bodies of BCST work, can be profound.
