Healing Justice 

In a world where productivity is often valued over presence, healing becomes a radical act. Healing Justice invites us to see care, not as an individual pursuit of self-optimisation, but as a collective, political, and embodied practice rooted in resistance. This theme explores how systemic oppression lives in our bodies and shapes our relationships to health, rest, difference, change, pain and pleasure.

Rather than viewing healing as separate from justice, we ask: What would it mean to centre collective healing within our movements for liberation? We delve into politicised somatics and the wisdom of seasonal changes to reclaim the body's rhythms from the logics of capitalism and control. We explore how guilt, people-pleasing, and internalised norms shape our nervous systems, and how we might unlearn them through dance, play, rest, and connection with the outdoors.
