Loving Senses
Description
This workshop led by Earthchild Remedies explores the many paths that can lead us back to a place of loving softness through engaging our senses. What does it mean to call love back into the heart space and body? What does embodying softness mean to you? Whilst navigating life in a society that upholds hardness and disconnection to ourselves and our communities, creating space to be soft with one another is a radical act. As we surrender to the power of healing, let us come with an open mind and our palms open to receive the goodness that healing in communion with others can give.
If you require additional access measures to enable your participation, including BSL interpretation please email info@healingjusticeldn.org. Inline with our commitment to disability justice, we will try to accommodate as much as possible.
Biographies
Bekah Williams is the founder of Earthchild Remedies, a community-centred platform founded in 2022 that explores wellness thorough practices that seek to re-connect global majority and queer communities back to the land. She is a huge advocate for assisting and inspiring Black and other racialised groups of all ages to return to nature, reclaim ancestral plant knowledge and ethically forage as a way to manage mental, physical and spiritual health in communion with others. Earthchild Remedies is about creating accessible spaces, sharing knowledge and bringing people together to allow individuals of all ages, genders, sexualities and faiths to have autonomy over their health and wellbeing. This currently takes the form of meditative urban foraging, sacred moon circles, sound bathing and natural medicine-making workshops. Bekah is also one of the co-founders of Back A Yardd, a south London-based community-focused collective which aims to reconnect people of the global majority back to the land through urban foraging walks based around south London.
