"There is no such thing as personal healing in an interdependent world. In order for any of us to be free, we must work for the liberation of all beings." -Kazu Haga
"We don’t do this work of healing and awakening just for ourselves, but for our communities, ancestors, and descendants as an act of care. This is a collective undertaking, not an individual one. We are woven together with generations past and future, as well as with one another and every expression of existence. Together, we can alchemize the wounds of apocalyptic times into the medicine that brings a fractured world to wholeness." -Liza Rankow
Join us on Saturday, January 24th for Soul Medicine: The Sacred Work of Healing our World, featuring revered educator & social transformation leader Liza Rankow (author of Soul Medicine for a Fractured World) and beloved nonviolence trainer & practitioner Kazu Haga (author of Healing Resistance & Fierce Vulnerability).
In a world shaped by rupture, grief, and longing, we are being invited to listen beneath the noise of our times for a deeper wisdom calling us forward. How can spiritually-grounded social change offer not only resistance to harm, but a pathway toward transformation and wholeness? What is the inseparable relationship between personal healing and collective healing? And how can we embody our soul medicine - the deep inner gifts, practices, and wisdom we each carry - to help mend our broken world?
Drawing from spiritual traditions, embodied practice, and decades of lived experience, Liza and Kazu invite us to imagine our lives (and movements) shaped by spiritual devotion, fierce vulnerability, and courageous action. It is a path forward where collective liberation is inseparable from tending to our inner lives and souls.As we root in the sacred and our own hearts and spirits, we simultaneously tend to the larger body we share—participating in a collective healing that stretches across generations, holding both the pain we carry and the futures we are responsible for.
