All in This Together - Stories of trauma, recovery and humanity from DR Congo - A benefit tour | Summer 2012
My friends and partners in DRC are trying to get to Europe to continue their efforts to bring Somatic Experiencing to their war affected people. To help out I'm going out on tour to share stories from my time in DRC as a way to help raise funds for their tuition and travel. These stories are going to help you laugh, cry and rediscovery our common humanity all over again. I hope you'll join me in helping out.

A blog series sharing ideas for attending to well-being in a time of loss, conflict, fear and uncertainty. The ideas in here are for everyone who is interested in trying to make this situation a little better for themselves by participating with their nature that much more. One of the best routes to feeling better is learning about what you are as a member of the human species and then giving your critter the kind of support it expects.
