Weekly Grounding for Healing & Wellness
Thursday, October 30 at 7:00 PM — 8:00 PM
Your personal wellness is directly connected to our communal well-being. Our capacity to be present in our relationships and communities is enhanced when we have tended to our own souls. This requires commitment and care, especially in these times of increasing trauma, loneliness, and division in our communities and tumult in our shared ecosystems. We believe that the remedy is the intentional practice of inquiring into our own souls, dealing responsibly with heartbreak and grief, and centering deep listening in the building of healthy relationships and communities.

How It Works
Time Frame: Oct. 6, 2025 through Jan. 1, 2026
Monday morning: You will receive a poem in your email inbox
Thursday evening, a drop-in circle: 7–8 p.m. EST on Zoom
Questions?Contact Yvette McDonnell, Congregational Life Coordinator and Ministerial Intern
Communal Wellness: Thursday evening, join an online community of practice at 7 p.m. EST on Zoom, to dig deeper into the insights you are holding and to learn from each other. During the hour, we will make room for our bodies to arrive, read the week’s poem, reflect on what it opens in us, share thoughts with one or two others, and close the hour with new awareness in the spirit of collective care. Being in a community reminds us that we are part of a whole and that others are also actively integrating practices to live without UU values.
Personal Wellness: Each Monday, you’ll receive an early-morning email message to support you in tending to the many aspects of personal wellness with a poem or song with a few touchstone reflection questions. You are invited to take time to reflect and realign your heart at the start of the week, focusing on the arisings of your soul relative to the weekly content.
