Tangible Care Toolkit Workshop
When we are overwhelmed or dissociated it can be difficult to reach toward the things that support us.
What if there was an easier way to receive the support you need, in the way(s) you need it?
What if we could build a culture of care into our families, relationship constellations, and communities that allowed us to show up for one another in a deeper and more nuanced way?
What if pleasure was an integral part of soothing, supporting, and sustaining you in the midst of everything that you are navigating in this moment?
It can be hard to know exactly what we need in times of overwhelm; when the world, our kids, our jobs, our families are too much. Tangible Care Toolkit will give you a structure to think about what you need and time to fill your toolkit with the who, what, where of how you can receive care.
When we have a personal resource (toolkit!) that is individualized to the way that our heart, mind and spirit are nourished, it is easier (not easy, but easier) to access that support when we are at our limits.
For some of us that looks like having a note on our phone, post-its on the fridge, or a spreadsheet to reference and remind us when our executive function is depleted. Our toolkit to bring us back to our bodies, make sure we are fed, or connect us with the people or things that help us feel a little less alone.
In this small, practical way we are actively building the world we want to live in.
It's a love letter to ourselves. And it can be a love letter to those who want to be able to show up for us.
During our 90 minutes together we will:
spend time building our individual toolkit
crowdsource ideas of ways to give and receive care // build a collective resource
create scripts for asking friends/family/partners/neighbors for support
learn embodied nervous system regulation practices
