Spiritual Threading Exercise Collaborating with the Universe Workshop (Clip) with Bonnie Violet, a queer chaplain
A queer-led, trauma-informed workshop on how to collaborate with the Universe/Spirit/Divine.
Many of us grew up with unhelpful or problematic ideas about "God" that took away our agency or left us feeling unworthy. Prayer was like an algorithm we were supposed to perfect.
And outside of religious institutions, if you're looking for spiritual direction, it can be difficult to know where to start or what will work for you.
This workshop is all about what it means to be a co-collaborator instead of a passive participant: in the direction of your life and your relationship with the Divine.
This isn't a workshop selling some method about how to get rich or find love. And we don't believe in easy answers to complex issues regarding suffering and injustice.
Instead, our presenters will offer their own experiences about healing from religious trauma, and cultivating spiritual practices that have helped them build meaningful relationships with Spirit and deeper self-love.
This event is sponsored by the Radical Soul newsletter which looks at spiritual movements and practices that center justice, offer healing from religious trauma, and reject white and Christian supremacy.
