The situation in the United States seems dire. Yet humans have been through many such situations over the course of global history. Can we acknowledge and allow all our feelings and use our body as a guide toward finding core peace and deep presence in the midst of it all?
Personal situations and conflicts make our political and social stress even worse. Can we gracefully navigate these personal issues to release pressure on ourselves and our friends and families? How can we be fully present to what is and move accordingly? How can we support each other?
... From core peace comes wisdom, right action and heart-centered ideas for caring for our families and communities and/or engaging in change making and activism. This two-hour webinar is a chance to breathe, come together in community and reflect on what is needed for each of us--within ... and to contribute to the outside world.
