Have you noticed issues in your family that span generations? Have you dedicated yourself to betterment and healing and feel stuck? Is there something emotional inside you that feels almost as if it does not belong to you? Are you a witness to your family’s suffering that seems to bridge generations? Are you affected by current social and political events? All of us are the product of a long human lineage that not only influences our minds, but also our physical experience. Our ancestry brings with it the overwhelming emotional experiences that our ancestors pass on to us. These may show up as repetitive patterns that bring adversity, emotional suffering and struggle in reaching wholeness in our daily lives. Presented by Sergio Ocampo, LMFT, SEP.

3-Part Webinar Series, Thurs. March 11, 18, & 25, 7:00 pm (ET) 4:00 PM (PT) $99
Sustainability: a term whose meaning is thoroughly scrutinized by academia, conveniently ignored by politicians, frequently questioned by policymakers, heavily greenwashed by marketers, often feared by the 'business as usual' practitioners, yet, also warmly embraced by those full of hopeful of a better and more just world. Consequently, sustainability has come to mean many things to many people, and it is still widely misunderstood by many of us.
So, then, you might ask rightfully; what is sustainability? And who cares, really?
This webinar series aims to explore answers to these and many more questions, including what you can do to help soothe this big hot mess. Yes, YOU!
