Welcome back to The Healing Journey!
Are you ready to be well? Are you ready to deepen your healing journey? Are you ready to heal alongside other survivors? If so, me too. International invites you to join The Healing Journey from October 2024 – to June 2025.
The Healing Journey will offer a bi-monthly, interactive workshops that invites members of the Survivor’s Sanctuary community to journey through featured Survivor’s Sanctuary lessons and attend corresponding workshops. Each session will explore a workshop topic followed by a 30-minute processing time to discuss your experience with the featured lesson. For this journey, workshops will explore the steps of somatic grounding: NAME, STAY, EXPLORE, NOTICE, and REFLECT. More than attending a workshop, or completing a lesson, this journey invites you to be in a community of healing with other survivors.
The STAY workshop will support survivors in practicing being with their needs while managing discomfort.
If you are seeking a community of intentional practice or want to explore Survivor’s Sanctuary in more depth, we invite you to join The Healing Journey. While The Healing Journey is open to all, we will prioritize the diverse experiences of women and fems of the global majority.

The Healing Journey II : Grounding in Healing Justice
2025-10-24 12:00 - 13:30
Welcome back to the Healing Journey!
The Healing Journey II, is a bi-monthly webinar that brings Survivor’s Sanctuary content to life.

About This Series:
The ‘me too.’ theory of healing states that “healed communities are better positioned to resist and usher in the radical change necessary to end sexual violence.” What does it mean to heal in community? What makes survivor healing both a political matter and an act of self-care? Through the Healing Journey II, we will explore these questions using a Healing Justice framework and tools from Survivor’s Sanctuary.
Healing Lineages (2023) defines Healing Justice as a community-led response to interrupt, transform, and intervene in individual/collective trauma to sustain our emotional/physical/mental/spiritual/psychic/environmental well-being. Healing Justice is a cultural strategy that seeks to create models of holistic care and safety. Healing Justice is a political strategy to decriminalize communal and ancestral traditions.
This first session will be a panel discussion exploring the roots of healing justice and the collective wisdom that led to its definition. We will be joined by a global panel of participants from the US, Guatamala and Senegal.

Date: Friday, October 24, 2025 at 12 pm ET
Panelists: Erica Woodland, Stacy Velasquez, Awa Diop
