As a global community we seem to be experiencing increasingly turbulent times with fear and anxiety related to climate change, post-pandemic fragmentation, war, violence, ethnic and racial tension, addiction, and many other destabilizing events. Withdrawal, isolation, disengagement, apathy and distrust are natural, yet further damaging, reactions. Wisdom teachings invite us to lean in, connect, and heal, through ritual, ceremony, and community building. This year’s Transformation & Healing Conference is dedicated to this effort and will provide opportunities to explore alternative and ancient pathways, as well as cutting edge research and evidence-based approaches for healing collective grief and trauma.
