Belonging is a social justice issue and the importance of finding connection must become a priority if we desire community. I've found isolation is often a symptom of enduring a tragedy, persistent/consistent trauma or abuse, or a great loss. It's comfortable, but it's not supportive to what our bodies, nervous systems, and hearts truly need.
I've shared a bed with grief for many years, and many of them in isolation, ashamed of how little of a person I've become, and terrified of being seen in my vulnerabilities. Grief changes you, and there's not nearly enough support and understanding for what the mind, body, and nervous system experience.
This is a space to explore those understandings, to dive into concepts of the 'self' and explore alternative routes to experiencing loss and grief.
This is a healing space. No toxic positivity. A contained space, but also a messy one. In this space we will, as a group, orchestrate a symbiosis of connectivity, understanding, and healing.
Matriarchal setting. Inclusivity. Non-binary conforming. Welcoming to all survivors, victims, and persons that may be confused on whether they consider themselves to be under these two categories. This is a space for self-discovery, with supportive eyes and ears, and kinships that will honor and respect you in your process completely.
