A Community Gatherings with Julie Brown Yau and Betsy Polatin

Join SAND to watch

A lot is happening in our world as the crisis spreads across our lives on a planetary scale. As we are all remaining in our homes, we would like to invite you to join us for a community get-together every Saturday at 10 AM PDT, where we can connect, reflect, meditate, nourish one another with our presence and create a field of resilience and mutual support. Each week we will have a different guest teacher who will bring their perspective and wisdom on the situation and help us connect and ground as a community. Let’s remember that every crisis holds the seeds of birthing of new perspectives and new ways of being.

This coming Saturday we are delighted to have as guest teachers Julie Brown Yau and Betsy Polatin.Both Julie and Betsy are Somatic Experiencing therapists. We will explore with them, tools on how to recognize and cope with trauma in times of crisis. They will share deep wisdom and experience in working with healing trauma.
