with Garrett Kling
Are you someone who feels deeply and wants to engage in social justice work, but sometimes feels overwhelmed or unsure where to start? Do you crave a gentle, embodied way to explore activism and awareness in community?
Join Garrett Kling for a summer Book & Body series centered around Dorcas Cheng-Tozun’s book Social Justice for the Sensitive Soul. This series is designed for those who want to stay engaged in justice work while honoring their sensitive nature and inner rhythms. Each gathering will include group discussion, mindful yoga practice, and space to reflect on how we can show up authentically and sustainably in this time. Together we will discover ways we can engage with the needs of the world through our gifts and talents.
We’ll also explore how yoga can serve as a powerful tool for fostering justice and meaningful change in our communities and the world.
Reading the book is encouraged but not required. The themes from Social Justice for the Sensitive Soul will guide our conversations, but you’re welcome to join even if you haven’t read it.
