About this Event
Facilitated by Dr. Zoë Lumiere, "Healing the Activist Heart" is a workshop offering simple somatic and spiritual tools to help animal advocates process emotional pain, stay connected to compassion, and sustain their work for animals without burnout.
By the end of the workshop, participants will have:
