How do we stay steady when the world feels unsteady?
How do we tend to our nervous systems while living through times that feel overwhelming, violent, unjust, or uncertain? And how can we reduce risk of experiencing long-term impacts of trauma while living through actively traumatic situations?
For artists and creative leaders, these questions aren’t abstract. Our work asks us to stay present, to feel deeply, respond honestly, and remain open to possibility, even when grief, fear, and rage are close at hand.
In this webinar series, Phoenix Sun Park of Voice of Purpose provides an opportunity for reflection and healing through a breath, movement, and journaling practice. With acknowledgment of the challenging times we are living in, Phoenix asks attendees to anchor in the present to foster connection and collective agency. The series provides guidance on how to self-regulate when the world is on fire and co-regulate for our collective healing.
