When I started Tiny Buddha, one of my main goals was to help us all heal the trauma that haunt us and hold us back in life. Much like our personal trauma hindering us individually, our collective trauma is detrimental to the whole world. And healing this trauma is critical to the future of humanity and the planet.
If, like me, you want to do your part to help heal all wounds that are passed down through generations, I strongly recommend attending the Collective Trauma Summit, a free 10-day online event from Tuesday, September 22nd.
This powerful summit will bring together over 45 experts on collective healing, including leading psychotherapists, visionaries, researchers, performers, poets and peacemakers in the world.

With panel discussions, guided meditations and performances by recognized poets and musicians, the Collective Trauma Summit will certainly help us to find strength and healing in this intense phase of massive upheavals and changes.
