Experiencing Belonging & Interbeing as an Antidote to Othering: Spiritual Director's International Conference

All around us the systems of capitalism, racism, classism, patriarchy, homophobia, speciesism, etc., seek to divide us and teach us that we do not belong to ourselves, each other, or the planet. Join us in this session to engage in practices of belonging and learn how recognizing interbeing & re-connecting to nature can provide useful guidance as we come back into our bodies and into reciprocal relationship with our stories, each other and the land. In this session we will draw upon the work of Sebene Selassie, Robin Wall Kimmer, Joanna Macy, Amos Clifford, Kimberly Crenshaw, bell hooks, adrienne maree brown to explore how felt experiences of belonging to self, land and community can help us disengage from oppressive structures and re-engage in co-creating spaces of deep belonging.
