Reflections on Ancestral Healing & Design Justice
This session will focus on connecting ancestral healing practices with divine justice practices for cultural healing. Dr. Velma Love will discuss the four basic assumptions that are foundational for ancestral healing practices, along with four principles of the design justice approach to problem solving, and offer reflections on how these two sets of practices might be combined to generate strategies for cultural healing. This session is informed by the work of Daniel Foor and Sasha Costanza-Chock.
In this session, you’ll discover:
- A short, guided meditation on ancestral healing and design justice
- Clarity around how to access and engage the ancestral realm as a source of guidance and support
- Strategies for how to connect ancestral lineage healing practices with design justice practices to promote cultural healing
