Creating New Patterns

We often start our healing journey in small ways, maybe everything is just too much, or the chronic pain you experience is getting worse. These individual scale patterns of orienting, or predicting what will happen next cause so much distress for us. As you start down the healing path looking at the individual symptoms and distress, remember that you aren't alone here. As you commit to making changes at the individual level, and start to set new patterns, you are also starting to shift internalized systems of harm and starting to create reverberations on the scale of community, of society. The small shifts in yourself, your own healing journey, is where we start to create shifts in the larger systems of capitalism, white supremacy, patriarchy, settler colonialism et al. and start to create systems of joy and liberation.

The work that I offer is this small work, remembering how to connect with your body with kindness, reconnecting with your nervous system, shifting narratives of pain and distress. I walk with you as you start on the small scale, and encourage you to join us as we shift the larger scale, creating ripples of change.

This is a record of my thoughts as I read Emergent Strategy by adrienne maree brown, I hope you learn something from this and read the book too. If you find yourself pondering these same concepts, connect with me through the next book club or through an individual appointment.
