SUMMARY:Community Healing Circle + Potluck
DESCRIPTION:Our community is coming together to create a healing circle\, a brave space where we can be real about feeling the pain in our lives and moving through that together into a deeper joy.\n\n\nWe invite you into a space of vulnerability and healing. You’re welcome to bring your pain\, your trauma\, and also your strength and intentions to hold space for others in their healing. Together we will find balance and a reassurance that we are loved and we are OK\, together. Our intention is to create a held space within which we can trust ourselves to feel the pain we need to\, on the way to wholeness\, and on the way to a life of greater balance and joy.\n\n\nAfter our circle process\, we’ll have space to connect together over a shared meal\, to decompress\, allow our normal boundaries to come back\, and move ourselves gently through sustenance and nurture back into the world.\n\n\nThe circle is from 2-5\, the potluck is from 5-7 (and is optional).\n\nThe Community Healing Circle is free and open to the whole community. Please RSVP below so we know who will be there!\n\n****\n\n\n\nAn Invitation to Brave Space \nBy Micky ScottBey Jones inspired by a poem by Beth Strano \nTogether we will create brave space\nBecause there is no such thing as a “safe space”\nWe exist in the real world\nWe all carry scars and we have all caused wounds.\nIn this space\nWe seek to turn down the volume of the outside world\,\nWe amplify voices that fight to be heard elsewhere\,\nWe call each other to more truth and love\nWe have the right to start somewhere and continue to grow.\nWe have the responsibility to examine what we think we know\,\nWe will not be perfect.\nThis space will not be perfect.|\nIt will not always be what we wish it to be\nBut\nIt will be our brave space together\,\nand\nWe will work in it side by side….
