Last December when I sat with my team to plan our monthly educational themes for 2023, we had planned to focus on trauma this month. But in light of the recent events in the world and the unrest and pain we are all feeling, we have decided to change the theme from “Healing Trauma” to “Embodying Joy.” Not because trauma isn’t a worthy topic. It clearly is - in fact it’s more relevant than ever. But we felt that reframing the issue of healing trauma as embodying joy was more appropriate right now.
