What Doors Can Open:
EQUITY AND HEALING Workshop Series
Hello friends,
I hope this email finds you well and in a circle of care.
One of the things I have been present with lately is how we connect with our innate power and the powers that support and collaborate with us for healing ourselves and the collective.
In the face of great harm and inequality we can have the impulse or feel the pressure to pull up our roots, but we are far better at handling stressors when we connect to ourselves and the earth.
How deeply do you need to drink to connect with what nourishes and supports you? What do you notice about the ways you stabilize and enliven the earth with your rooting? What do you witness, what are the ways you are witnessed as you connect deeply with the whole? What kind of tenderness is here for you as you open yourself to creativity and mutuality?
Register on Eventbrite for one or all.

Q&A/Liberatory Conversation about the workshop series
Clearly I’m better at making things than announcing them, but I hope you are free tomorrow morning, we’d love you to join us for an informal, interactive session.
Here is the description from ATLP:
“Join us in conversation with Moriah Williams (pronouns: q/surprise me) for meet and greet and Q&A as an introduction to the ATLP-hosted monthly series, What Doors Can Open: Explorations in Equity and Healing, including the upcoming workshops on Emotional Freedom Technique for Inflammation, Oppression, Toxicity, and Trauma.
We want to hear your experiences as someone who engages with care services either as a client or a practitioner about what has felt liberatory to you, what has felt challenging, where your curiosities lie, and what you might want from exploring these topics.
Moriah will share about q’s experiences as a client and practitioner which inspired the series and share about q’s own questions regarding the big field of engaging with our collective healing power. There will also be a brief introduction to Emotional Freedom Technique and alternatives for accessibility.
JOIN US or DROP IN!
Q&A Meet and Greet on Sunday, September 10, 12-1 PM ET / 6-7PM CET”
