We’ve been stuck in a cycle of social distancing long before COVID 19. The erosion of accessible community structures over the last few decades have left us isolated and striving for self preservation above collective care. Individuals and communities have become more isolated and fragmented, breaking away from the social bonds of many aspects of life —  familial, neighborly, religious, social and civic.

In the absence of community structures that anchor people in mutual interest and cooperation, you have a culture that becomes vulnerable to the traps of self-reliance, self-interest and even self-care. Reclaiming our individual and collective selves can’t be found in self-help books and personal seeking, it can only be achieved through relationship and community.

Creating containers of belonging and recovery is essential to our individual and collective healing. As ancestor bell hooks taught us...

"rarely, if ever, are any of us healed in isolation".

Which is exactly why we created "Recovering Ourselves: A 12-step Approach to Liberation". Using the wisdom and guidance of the 12 steps, we will journey through an inside out process of healing to build capacity and resilience, cultivate skills for application and action and embrace a readiness and responsiveness to the path of recovery and wholeness. 

Led by Nikki Myers, the founder of Yoga for 12-Step Recovery, and Kerri Kelly, author of "American Detox," this training offers a profound and embodied exploration of how dominant culture—rooted in separation, supremacy, and scarcity—has shaped us, and what it will take to heal.  

Here’s what you can look forward to:

✨ A powerful immersion with two incredible facilitators

✨ Four days and three nights on a stunning country farm

✨ Nourishing home-cooked meals

✨ Plenty of space to rest and rejuvenate
