What are some concepts that may guide us in our meetings?
Queerness, Neurodiversity, & Anti-Colonial Care Queerness as in questioning, deconstructing, and queering all systems of oppression. Neurodiversity as in welcoming the diversity in nervous systems, brains, minds, and bodies present in the healing space. Anti-colonial care as in decolonizing our bodyminds while practising kindness, curiousity, and care towards each other & refraining from shaming or cancelling other people for mistakes or internalized biases and beliefs. All in all: growing and healing together, while giving each other grace for mistakes, accountability, and repair! Radical Mental Health Radical mental health is about building supportive communities, empowering one another, and seeing mental well-being in a more holistic way. It invites us to move away from labeling mental health struggles as purely individual problems and instead looks at how bigger systems (like capitalism and colonialism) impact our mental health. It’s a compassionate approach that encourages self-discovery and collective healing, helping us navigate our journeys together with understanding and care. Parts Work & Somatic Practises Understanding our minds as made up of different "parts" or sub-personalities (each with its own thoughts, feelings, and needs), can help us bring balance to inner and outer conflicts. It will also foster compassion, kindness, care, curiosity, and connection within ourselves, within the group, and towards others. Using parts work, we’ll explore different thoughts, feelings, and bodily sensations, gaining a deeper understanding of our own inner worlds and those of the people around us. Combined with somatic practises, this can help us to allow ourselves to start connecting with our emotions, and have them flow and be released through our bodies. Animism & Spiritual Grounding Animism invites us to recognize the spiritual significance and consciousness in all aspects of the natural world - animals, plants, and even inanimate objects. Through an animist lens, we can deepen our sense of connection not just with other people, but with everything around us. This perspective helps us see the world as alive and interconnected, fostering a profound sense of belonging and spiritual awareness. "Living life in touch with divine spirit lets us see the light of love in all living beings. That light is a resurrecting life force. A culture that is dead to love can only be resurrected by spiritual awakening." - Bell Hooks Ancestral Awareness & Rituals Recognizing the pain of our ancestors - both those who are still with us and those who have passed - can play a powerful role in our own healing. We all carry some form of ancestral or intergenerational trauma, the emotional echoes of our ancestors’ experiences passed down through generations. But like any trauma, this too can be healed. By fostering positive relationships, engaging in meaningful rituals, and reconnecting with our ancestral roots, we can begin to heal these wounds and break the intergenerational cycles of harm in our families.
