Discussion
As more and more people become aware of their own trauma, or we encounter trauma material while facilitating, it has become more imperative than ever to be trauma informed. But what does that mean, and what does it require of us in how we facilitate or engage our own traumawork?
In this session, Wangũi will draw on her experience both as a client and facilitator trained in various modalities (outside of processwork) to guide us in awareness of various nervous system responses that are pertinent in the course of traumawork. Together, we will practice tools with which to support both ourselves, clients and/or groups so we can engage traumawork with reduced risk of retraumatisation.
In a colonial world that continues to manufacture trauma, it is a matter of justice to have these awarenesses and tools as facilitators, so the spaces we hold are “nurturing and not torturing”.*
*Grateful to Maytik Avirama for this nurturing not torturing language.

About Your Teacher
Wangũi wa Kamonji, MSc
Regeneration/decolonial Transformations Facilitator
I am a regeneration practitioner, and retriever and bearer of indigenous Afrikan lifeways. I use academic and indigenous research, dance, writing, oral storytelling, song, food, ancestral work and process facilitation to inquire into how to heal the colonial traumas of past and present, and (re)create new-old regenerative realities for the present and future of Afrika in partnership with human, earth and unembodied spirit relations. My work centres Africa, Earth and ancestrality.
I hearthkeep the organism fromtheroots, a research and unlearning space that supports transitions from awareness of coloniality to practise of regenerative worlds.”
