Tribe of One Love

An Introduction to Unconditional Embodied Love
What does it actually mean to practice love—not as an idea or ideal, but as a lived, embodied experience? What does unconditional love mean? Is it reserved only for family, relatives, and those closest to us, or is it something we are capable of extending more broadly—to others, and to ourselves?

This gathering marks the first session in a new experiential series exploring Unconditional Embodied Love—love as something we feel, sense, and expressed through our actions, choices, and presence with one another.

We'll slow down and explore how to step into a living relational space with clear intention and grounded practices that support a more love-centered life.

In this session, we will:

• Explore our individual and shared understanding of unconditional embodied love
• Engage in honest dialogue about what supports—or interferes with—living a love-centered life
• Gently explore movements and practices that cultivate love toward ourselves and within our relationships

At the end of this session, participants will:

• Leave with a clearer, more grounded understanding of what unconditional embodied love means in everyday terms
• Be invited to share takeaways, including at least one practice that supports a more love-centered life

Mission of Tribe of One Love
We are a community devoted to expanding our capacity to practice love for all—cherishing the sacredness of every human, nurturing meaningful connection, and living the wisdom of love in action. In doing so, we cultivate joy and awaken a higher consciousness that inspires more connected lives for ourselves, our families, and the world around us.

Purpose of Sessions
Transformation. Our gatherings are spaces for authentic connection and shared growth, with transformation at the heart of why we come together. We come together not to debate or persuade, but to listen, reflect, and expand in love and curiosity. At the end of each discussion, we invite each participant to share a takeaway—what they’ve learned, how their views have shifted, or what they might do differently because of the conversation.

Tribe of One Love Community Guidelines
We are perfectly imperfect humans, practicing love together. These guidelines are not standards of perfection, but invitations to practice with intention and care.

• We are rooted in love, curiosity, and growth.
  We’re here to reflect, share, and expand our awareness together—rather than debate, persuade, or convert. We prioritize presence and experiential learning.
• We are here to practice unity through shared humanity.
  We aim for connection, not correction. We choose language and ways of relating that support understanding, and we avoid us-vs-them framing or language that dehumanizes, morally sorts, or pressures others into positions.
• We are a nonpartisan, non-denominational space.
  People from all walks of life are welcome. Personal lived experiences may include religion or politics, but no ideology—religious, political, partisan, or otherwise—should be promoted or belittled. These topics are outside the scope of our space, as we prioritize shared humanity over division.
• We show up as both teachers and students.
  We look forward to hearing a diversity of reflections, reactions, and perspectives. Take in what resonates and release what doesn’t. We value spaciousness—pausing, listening, and allowing insight to unfold organically.
• Speak from personal experience.
  Use “I” language. Share what’s true for you without trying to fix, assume, advise, or preach—unless invited. Frame your perspective as your lived experience rather than presenting opinions as universal truth. This leaves room for others to share theirs.
• Avoid assumptions.
  Don’t assume others share your background, values, or beliefs. Our diversity is a strength. Speaking as if we all think alike can make others feel excluded or unsafe.
• Honor the complexity of healing.
  Healing is nuanced, layered, and deeply personal. With a trauma-informed lens, we recognize it unfolds across emotional, relational, and biological dimensions. We avoid one-size-fits-all paths or formulaic solutions. Go at your own pace, guided by your inner compass.
• You are welcome to bring your real experiences—with purpose.
  If you’ve ever felt unseen, misunderstood, or worn down by life and the state of the world, you are not alone. Bring what’s real in the spirit of healing and learning. We name pain not to vent or complain without direction, but to seek clarity, understanding, and transformation.
• Practice equity of voice.
  Be mindful of how much space you’re holding. If you speak often, consider stepping back. If you’re usually quiet, know your voice matters—we’d love to hear from you.
• Welcome disagreements as part of growth.
  When conflict or misunderstanding arises, we pause and acknowledge what others are sharing. We respond with curiosity rather than certainty, take responsibility for our own reactions and feelings, and practice repair.
• Let our space ripple outward.
  What’s learned here, we hope transforms not only ourselves, but our families, communities, and beyond. Our space is sacred—not because it is perfect, but because we hold it together.

Online Zoom Guidelines
To help create a space that feels warm, respectful, and connected for everyone, please take a moment to review these guidelines before joining our online events:

• Arrive a few minutes early.
  Settle in, test your audio, and get comfortable before we begin. This helps us start smoothly and on time.
• Keep yourself on mute when not speaking.
  This ensures everyone can hear the speaker clearly without background noise.
• Use your camera if possible.
  Seeing one another builds connection and presence. It’s okay if you need to turn it off occasionally, but faces help us feel together.

Honor Humanity; Love Your Enemies
At the foundation of Unconditional Embodied Love is a radical orientation: every human being carries inherent dignity. Not because of agreement. Not because of behavior. Not because of similarity. Simply because they are human.

This session explores the practice of honoring humanity in ourselves and in others without condition, particularly in moments of conflict, failure, disappointment, or deep disagreement.

We will gently examine what happens inside us when we encounter difference, offense, harm, or deep disagreement. What does it mean to “love your enemies” in real, embodied, psychologically healthy ways?

What does it not mean?
This is not about collapsing boundaries or tolerating harm. It is about refusing to dehumanize—even when we must say no.

***

In This Session, We Will:
1. Explore the foundation of human dignity
2. Examine dehumanization in real time
3. Clarify what “Love Your Enemies” actually means
4. Practice honoring humanity internally

***

Experiential Elements:

• A guided somatic reflection on a moment of conflict
• Pausing to notice internal reactions toward someone we struggle with
• Small-group dialogue about the tension between boundaries and dignity
• A practical exercise in reframing dehumanizing language

***

By the End of This Session, Participants Will:

• Have a clearer understanding of human dignity as the foundation of love
• Identify at least one situation where they have practiced refusing dehumanization
• Leave with one grounded practice that supports honoring humanity in everyday life
