Embodied social justice certificate
Three months of truth, love, thought, compassion, discovery, acceptance, growth, belonging, awareness, community, and unlearning. Phew! What a list! And there’s probably more. <3
I’m excited for this three month program on Embodied Social Justice because I have no doubt that I will be a better human from it. Supermajority is amazing and I love the political action that it fuels me with. Off the Mat and Into the World’s Reemergence Program was great and opened my eyes more than they were. Since my initial participation in those programs, I’ve become a certified yoga instructor, but don’t teach, and I’ve done some pretty deep personal work with Suzanne Sterling’s courses - Voice for Change, Ritual, and Sanctuary. Suzanne’s offerings have been powerful on a personal level because I’ve noticed that before I can help heal and positively impact the world, I need to know who I am first. I need to return to me. Who I am. Who and where I am from. How I am and move in the world. It’s transformative when you can send roots into the ground, be held, and then see the many branches of your being. Because I’ve had these experience with these people, I feel ready for this program.
“We must sit in our bodies so much that we can no longer abide by the oppression that exists in societies.”
There are many things that Rev. angel says that hit so hard, but this is the one that stuck with me and actually made me act. It will be profound. And I have no doubt that I will be changed.
