Healing from Colonialism Workshops

In our Healing from Colonialism workshops, we create a safe environment for exploring and starting to heal the collective wounds arising out of a Colonial past, that have left individual scars in us, but also which have impacted our interpersonal interactions, and our group dynamics.

To do this, we combine a psycho-educational approach, sharing information about collective trauma, shame and identity, with a telling of stories of pain and of resilience that can help us find new avenues to healing.

Along with ritual, sound and movement dynamics, we allow the energies that our bodies hold frozen from collective trauma to start thawing and be voiced in a constructive and assertive way.

As this topic is an extremely complex one, each workshop is designed with the particular group of participants in mind, so that the aspects addressed in the workshop fit in the best possible manner to the experience of the particular group of participants.
