Somatic Tools for Navigating Systemic Violence.
In a world of systemic violence, ICE raids, climate disasters, and intergenerational trauma, our bodies are keeping the score. The grief, rage, and fear we carry can feel overwhelming—but here’s the truth: you don’t have to carry this alone.
This skillshare is for you: the heart-centered radical who wants to feel more grounded, resilient, and empowered in the face of crisis. Whether you’re an activist, caregiver, or simply someone who cares deeply about justice and healing, this training will give you the tools to navigate trauma with compassion and care—for yourself and your loved ones.
What You’ll Learn:
Liberation-based Frameworks for Understanding the Nervous System: Krishnamurti wrote, "It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society." Expand beyond the ideal of "regulation" as supreme... without denying the severe effects of cortisol and adrenaline on the soma.

Collective Healing: When we care for our nervous systems, we’re better able to show up for the movements and people we care about.
Justice-Centered Care: Somatic healing isn’t just personal—it’s a radical act of resistance and a way to build the liberated future we’re fighting for.
