Consider This: 03/04/2024

By An Excerpt by Alexis Pauline Gumbs from "Healing Justice" | Monday, March 4, 2024

“Learn to listen to Earth. Listen by putting your hands in it. Listen by putting your face to it. Listen to Earth by what Earth sends up to meet you. Earth looks stable, but Earth is moving, through the sky and under your feet. So listen to Earth and know where you are. Listen to Earth and ask where you are going. 

Sometimes a healer needs grounding. Sometimes while providing the grounded safe space and the paced healing words for everyone else, a healer needs Earth to crawl into. An earthen embrace. A healing movement needs soil to sink roots and send branches … every healer needs a home.”
