Hey y’all,

Recovering from a dominant system that controls bodies and minds through pathologizing, surveillance, legislation, deprivation, incarceration and other tools of oppression means embracing a culture of wellbeing that is self-determined. It is not one size fits all but a system of care that understands that we need different things. When we understand wellbeing in this way, we can co-create a system of response and recovery that is big and diverse enough to hold all of us. 

 

Recovery invites us to detox and untangle our bodies and minds from the harmful ideologies of dominant culture and create the conditions where everyone can thrive on their terms. It is not a prescription or magic pill but an everyday practice of waking up, getting free, and showing up for the wellbeing of the whole. It affirms that the wellbeing so many of us are relentlessly seeking can only be realized together through collective care and action.

 

Liberation work is recovery work in that it requires that we recover the parts of us that have been lost to the project of separation and supremacy so that we can meet each other in our whole power and potential. 

 

We'll be exploring this and more at Recovering Ourselves Retreat: A 12-Step Approach to Liberation this Fall in upstate NY. There 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 using the wisdom and guidance of the 12 steps.

Recovering Ourselves

Recovering Ourselves: A 12-Step Approach to Liberation blends timeless wisdom,  neuroscience, somatic healing, rituals, and relational organizing into a shared practice of detox and recovery. Led by the amazing Nikki Myers, founder of Yoga for 12 Step Recovery, and Kerri Kelly, author of American Detox, this retreat will dive deep into how we've been shaped by a culture of separation, supremacy, and scarcity, and what it’s going to take to truly heal.

 

This program is for EVERYONE - it's not necessary to have any 12-step knowledge or practice in advance of this program. You simply need to show with a curiosity and willingness to confront whatever is in the way of your wholeness and full expression.
