Wound Care: Episode 3
Here we have episode 3 of Wound Care, a special offering during Mental Health Awareness Month…
Read MoreWound Care: Episode 2
In Episode 1 of Wound Care, we peeled back the bandaid to face our tenderness. Wound Care Episode 2 invites the seeker into further exploration and questioning alongside gentle movement. It opens up a conversation with our most tender spots so that we may get to know the process of asking ourselves what it is that we need to heal.

Wound Care: Ep 1
In the first installment of Wound Care, we practice grounding, centering, and facing our wounds. While not all of our wounds are physical, they are all stored in our bodies. And just as an untreated physical wound can fester so can our emotional ones.

Wound Care: Mental Health Awareness Month
Dear ones,
It has been much too long since we have been able to breathe together without fear.
Wound Care is a 4-week offering/challenge to take time for yourself and turn your attention towards uncovering and understanding the trauma that has been surfacing in our bodies/communities this past year.
For the month of May, I’ll be on Instagram Live (@CompassionateRevolt) every Friday from 9-915am PDT.
The vision is that you will take this 15-minute practice into the rest of your week and your weekly practice into the rest of your month as a way to lean into more awareness around your mental, physical, and emotional health so that you may take this health back into your community.
Think of it as a little first aid for your spirit.
This practice is just a beginning. It is just the initial peeling back to face what needs to be healed. Everyone is welcome. The shape will be one of gentle movement and breath to start to explore and nurture a compassionate relationship to the tender place that lies at the intersection of mind, body, and external world. Since we will be meeting virtually you will be able to set up your space as needed for your individual safety and comfort while knowing that you are practicing with your community.
Come as you are. Do what you can. Let us move back into breath together.
Wounded but healing,
T
