Alumni Session 1

Staying Grounded and Engaged in the Current Times

Tuesday, September 30 at 4 pm ET/ 3 pm CT/ 2 pm MT/ 1 pm PT

Join Beth Yohe, MA and Dr. Craig Elliott, with moderator, Dr. Tanya Williams, as we discuss what staying grounded and engaged means during this time of chaos, uncertainty, and injustice. We will share our emotions, how we are finding our way, as well as how we are manifesting hope, resilience, and action.

This session is open to all SJTI Alumni and we request that alums register for each session.

Alumni Session 2

Moving From Self-Care to Self- Reverence Self-care

Wednesday, October 29 at 4 pm ET/ 3 pm CT/ 2 pm MT/ 1 pm PT

In this moderated conversation, Dr. Carmen Rivera guides Dr. Durryle Brooks and Dr. Ale Covarrubias as they explore what lies beyond self-care. Burnout isn’t a personal failure, but often a response to systemic betrayal, identity-based harm, and ongoing injustice and no amount of bubble baths can fix that. Together, they invite us toward Self-Reverence: a practice rooted in justice, healing, and the belief that we are worthy of more than survival, even in this moment.

Alumni Session 3

Liberation is a Rumor Until It is Felt In Our Bodies: In Practice with SJTI Alumni
Friday, November 14 at 12 noon ET/ 11 am CT/ 10 am MT/ 9 am PT

This session with Dr. Tanya Williams and Dr. Beth Douthirt-Cohen, and moderated by Beth Yohe, MA, explores how liberation is accessible to us through community and the body. Through some practices and connecting, we will be curious together about what this path to liberation can offer us during this time.
