11-Minute Meditation - Moving Through Personal + Collective Trauma With Embodiment

Mohawkmomma Soul

Dear scribbler + speaker,

The embodied question is: So what do we do when trauma + grief comes our way (over and over again), personally + collectively?

Embodiment CTA (Call to Abide): We make space for grief with multifaceted, reparative activities. Because Life be Lifin' 24/7.

Braid Grief with Grace

Andrea “Angie” shepherds us into a pause for somatic healing of trauma to awaken souls to make space for grief through movement, empathy + curiosity, which supports reparative action, deeper rest, connections—embodiment’s ongoing pathways for healing, no matter where you are—even at a Walmart lube and tire center patiently getting a flat tire repaired.

Somatic healing—reparative work-play has been helpful for Andrea not only with those she pastors but also in her own healing. She believes to be able to compassionately integrate play and listen to her body as a Black woman and connect with her body and other bodies is transformative and ancestral.

Andrea offers pause parishioners a soft place to meditate on trauma + grief as they actively move through the body intentionally and intuitively on an individual and societal level. She shares the importance of a multi-layered, therapeutic support squad and feeling our feelings if and when we have the capacity, keeps us empowered enough to connect, create, advocate, rest and resist as we “braid grief with grace.”

The episode concludes with Andrea reflecting on shattered hope at the fringes—hanging out on the outskirts, and the role embodiment can play in manifesting new possibilities of human flourishing amid violence, which is a threat to the nervous system (and so so much more), personally + collectively.
