Reimagining Resilience (Virtual)

Reframing colloquial and colonial concepts of resilience; we explore eco-therapeutic, Indigenous, and arts-based interventions that invite us to reimagine mental health, self-care, and resilience as we face a climate-impacted reality, and fight for a liberated future.

This workshop does heavy lifting in reducing shame in marginalized people and survivors by offering a new vision of resilience that honors lived experience, validates past coping, and reframes resilience as something inherent rather than something to be achieved. Participants receive concrete tools and reflection to bring this new learning into their lives in the form of self-advocacy, self-compassion and/or new practices for self-care.

15% of proceeds go to Shumi Land Tax to benefit native land rematriation.

This is not a replacement for therapy. Our workshops invite participants to explore some emotionally tender content. By attending this event you assure that you’re emotionally supported and resourced enough to engage without threatening your own or others’ safety.
