The Role of Communal Healers: Caring for our Collective Soul

CTS Talks: Cindy S. Lee, PhD

We are experiencing a complex weariness in this season as we attune to our collective anxieties and griefs. In this session we will consider the role of communal healers that attend to the collective soul. Communal healers are those prepared for the hard conversations and hard spaces of our times. They invite the deeper healing of our collective soul through contemplative presence, rituals, and practices.

Experience a series of captivating “TED Talk” style lectures at CTS Talks. Delivered by distinguished guests who are subject matter experts, these thought-provoking talks provide a platform to gain insight on topics that tie together intellectual curiosity and community reflection.
