BELONGING BEGINS IN THE BODY

“I dreamed about a culture of belonging," wrote bell hooks. "I contemplate what our lives would be like if we knew how to cultivate awareness, to live mindfully, peacefully; if we learned habits of being that would bring us closer together, that would help us build beloved community.”

On January 11, 2023, hosts Rev. Dr. Zina Jacque and Jessica Green welcomed wellness & equity expert Dr. Krista Robinson-Lyles, founder of the Joy Hope Collective to Courageous Conversations at Barrington’s White House for an interactive practice to reconnect to our bodies as we work to nourish a culture of belonging in our communities.
