I don’t usually share my politics directly on my social. I do talk about trauma, leadership, compassion and the inequities/macro & micro aggressions facing women, ethnic and religious minorities and the impact of poverty. I talk about this a lot.
People are suffering trauma, hurt, fear, rage, anxiety, distress and despair today. Responding with anything other than compassionate kindness/enquiry is not only insensitive, it’s trauma insensitive.
Personally, I’m devastated. Numb. And feeling a loss of hope today. I will feel differently eventually but today I am wallowing in pain and sadness. I’m trying to release the heaviness in my heart so I can open it up to regain hope and trust.
If anyone you know would like to talk, please feel free to reach out directly.
Friday evening, I’m planning to hold a “prayer”, reiki, meditation circle-not sure what to call it- at the nook. 7pm. Nothing needed, only a desire for connection and being heard. Reach out if you’re interested or want additional information.
