2017 Lucidity Festival: Eudaimonia

This workshop addresses issues of social, racial, and environmental justice and how they are inherently connected to spirituality and well-being. We will address issues of cultural appropriation and how we can remember indigenous ways and wisdom that honors tribal influences without erasing their stories of survival and resilience on the very land that we gather upon. Look no further than Standing Rock to see just how important it is to merge spirituality and activism as a means of healing ourselves, our relationships to one another, and the Earth at large. Although conversations about race, privilege, injustice, and oppression can be heavy, our goal is not to intimidate or overwhelm participants, but instead work with transmuting and transforming uncomfortable energies into ones of empathy, compassion, and collective action. Ultimately this workshop will empower participants to show up to our evolution as more informed, aware, and prepared warriors of love.
