Healing is an ongoing process that needs us to move beyond treating isolated symptoms and embrace a more interconnected, systems-thinking approach to wellness. Healing involves not just the physical body, but our relationship with ourselves, our communities, and nature.

Lana Jelenjev is a community alchemist, volunteer coach, mentor, and learning specialist. She has been working with the Neurodiversity Foundation for the past seven years, and is a HOPE (Healthy Outcomes from Positive Experience) trainer.

In this episode, you will

• Learn about the platinum rule, which focuses on understanding and meeting others' needs and how that fosters deeper connections and relationships. We all share a common humanity. Our interdependence is crucial for healing and for our collective freedom.
• Feel into how embracing our unique strengths and identities is essential for personal growth and fulfilment. The concept of neurodiversity challenges the idea that there is a “normal” way of thinking and encourages acceptance and understanding of different cognitive styles.
• Appreciate how unlearning societal narratives and redefining productivity and rest are essential for personal and societal wellbeing, and how we are not less because of that – in fact, we uncover much more of our potential and wisdom in the process.
