Embodied Wisdom is our seasonal rhythm of communal, holistic learning. The belief that our need for human connection is enduring shapes these gatherings. Our intent is to create intention space for inspiration, connection, deepening, and activation in service of collective healing. 

Our spring gathering, facilitated by Audrey Jensen, will focus on Building the Capacity for Difference: The Journey from Constriction to Individuation.

We are living in an Age of Dissonance. How do we work with this? And is there an opportunity for an Age of Individuation where we confront and engage difference — not just as a thought experiment, but in our families, communities, and therapy/healing spaces.
