Join us for this interactive workshop where we’ll interrogate our patterns and beliefs around truly seeing and loving our inner selves.
How do we know we love ourselves when we contain multitudes? Whose language do we use to define our “enoughness”? What does writing our own stories look like in a world where people are increasingly divesting from colonial, oppressive perspectives of true love?
Explore these questions and more in this interactive workshop where Maria Minnis will guide us in interrogating our deeply ingrained patterns and beliefs around truly seeing and loving our inner selves. Participants will learn about and practice ways to address internalized biases, double-consciousness, and blocks around showing up more bravely and authentically. The workshop will also cover how to create self-care practices that disrupt mythical norms perpetuated by cultural imperialism and patriarchy.
The hybrid class will include a lecture, individual & group activities, discussion, and time for questions.
In preparation for the workshop, please gather the following items:
For those attending IN PERSON:
We'll be gathering together at Seagrape Apothecary from 6:00 to 8:00 PM. Please arrive a little early to get settled in. For the sake of the container we're holding, and to minimize distractions, we'll be locking the doors 10 minutes after class starts. Please keep this in mind while making travel arrangements!
Seagrape Apothecary is now located at 2823 NE Sandy Blvd, Portland, Oregon 97232. Please DO NOT park in the Centaur Guitar parking lot! There's residential parking available just one block away, and a bus stop directly in front of the store for folks taking public transit.
For those attending DIGITALLY:
A Zoom invitation for the live event will be emailed to you 48 hours before the gathering. Keep an eye on your inbox for the link! Those who can't make it to this magical gathering at the time of the event will have access to the recording for 30 days.
