Mohawkmomma Soul: Divergent Soul Care for Scribblers + Speakers + Seekers

Dear scribblers + speakers,

June is PTSD Awareness Month. Trauma is not the event, it's the aftershocks of the event. Overthinking + overcontrolling could be post-traumatic responses/strategies that have been part of your survival.

The embodied question is: As you work-play through the narrative of your trauma (and its legacy), what rituals will have helped you seek transformative intervention? (don't overthink this, we all have rituals—we simply don't name them as such.)

Embodiment CTA (Call to Abide): Take the Rest Assessment - Go from routine to ritual as you Notice + Nurture + Embody your cyclical rhythms. You'll receive your ritual-specific, personalized recommendation, which will help you tune into your body's wisdom to optimize tending to your rhythmic soul care.

Therapy: Therapy for Black Girls 

Explore Trauma Therapy: Consider EDMR, CBT, and somatic approaches as you assimilate the broken-up bits of sensory memories.

Ase' + Amen

Dear scribblers + speakers,

Let's affirm + tend to our softness. It's a way of coming homing to our wholeness (shalom).

Dear scribblers + speakers,

Let's affirm + tend to oneness. Oneness is one of the highest expressions of creativity—in my opinion—a reflection of the Beloved's creativity.

Hebrew word: Echad

definition: a single entity but made up of more than one part.

The embodied question is: "What echad/oneness rituals ground you with creation (other humans or non-humans)? (don't overthink this, we all have rituals—we simply don't name them as such.)

Dear scribbler + speaker,

The embodied question is: So what do we do when trauma + grief comes our way (over and over again), personally + collectively?

Braid Grief with Grace

Andrea “Angie” shepherds us into a pause for somatic healing of trauma to awaken souls to make space for grief through movement, empathy + curiosity, which supports reparative action, deeper rest, connections—embodiment’s ongoing pathways for healing, no matter where you are—even at a Walmart lube and tire center patiently getting a flat tire repaired.

Somatic healing—reparative work-play has been helpful for Andrea not only with those she pastors but also in her own healing. She believes to be able to compassionately integrate play and listen to her body as a Black woman and connect with her body and other bodies is transformative and ancestral.

Andrea offers pause parishioners a soft place to meditate on trauma + grief as they actively move through the body intentionally and intuitively on an individual and societal level. She shares the importance of a multi-layered, therapeutic support squad and feeling our feelings if and when we have the capacity, keeps us empowered enough to connect, create, advocate, rest and resist as we “braid grief with grace.”

The episode concludes with Andrea reflecting on shattered hope at the fringes—hanging out on the outskirts, and the role embodiment can play in manifesting new possibilities of human flourishing amid violence, which is a threat to the nervous system (and so so much more), personally + collectively.

Dear scribblers + speakers,

Rituals are punctuation marks and without them, each day is like a run-on sentence. There is a better way for you to engage the day—your rituals.

For women, the earliest rituals have long been tied to women's rhythms and cycles: solar + lunar + seasonal.

​

The embodied question is: "What rituals ground you in your humanity?" (don't overthink this, we all have rituals—we simply don't name them as such.)

Embodiment CTA (Call to Abide): Take the Rest Assessment - Go from routine to ritual as you Notice + Nurture + Embody your cyclical rhythms. You'll receive your ritual-specific, personalized recommendation, which will help you tune into your body's wisdom to optimize tending to your rhythmic soul care.

Dear scribblers + speakers,

Let's align with the audacious truth that we are co-creators, and we are always creating something—personally + collectively—intuitively and intentionally.

Creativity is embodied through our humanity. Whether were are bearing fruit (outward + public) or being in our fallow (inward + private)—we have a sacred communion that connects us in our multifaceted creativity from the inside out.

The embodied question is: "What do I create with my time?" The disembodied question is: "How or when do I find the time to create?"

Embodiment CTA (Call to Abide): Let's make space for the ecosystem of grace + some mental acupuncture as we journal + heal.

Ase' + Amen

Dear scribblers + speakers,

Journey with me in my backyard sanctuary as I lament + linger in this generative space.

As you enter + engage this Tuesday (or whatever day you're listening), no matter where your lament lies, instead of consumption, commune and take a moment to reflect...

A moment for lamenting during this lunar fullness - gratitude is full.

A moment for breathing, sip your lunar libation + stretch - gratitude is full.

We can set the vibe + trajectory for our hearts no matter what's happening because there will always be something happening that will blindside us with a sucker punch. Beyond the sucker punch—sanctuary.

The question is what direction do you want your decisions + devotion to go?

Ase' + Amen

Dear scribblers + speakers,

But is it really urgent? 

There's a fierce urgency of now that has groomed + conditioned many of us to run off frantic fuel. But there is an unlearning liberation from this exploitive, debilitating fallacy that awaits us, personally + collectively.

There is a softer, more shalom-making place to land as we pause in a meditation that opens us up to breathe + rest in holy curiosity about our patterns + path.

Dear scribblers + speakers, listen to Andrea "Angie" and Keith Palmer in a meditative prelude about empathy in the life of writers and oracles as we gather to notice, nurture and embody shalom enclaves of luminous bliss, healing, and solidarity.
