The Resilience Toolkit: Accessible Somatics

Healing Justice Ldn emerged as a collaboration by Women of Colour living in London working on the intersection of community work, trauma and health, creativity and liberation practice. We build community health, repair and self-transformation rooted in disability justice, somatic survivor work and trauma-informed practice working with communities of colour and other marginalised and underrepresented groups.

Healing Justice LDN

ICF @ Block 336

In this workshop led by Nkem Ndefo, experience a unique approach to resilience-building, which fosters the flexible strength and increased capacity to overcome adversity, heal and transform systems of oppression and inequity into spaces where we thrive. Through focused lecture, personal reflection, and experiential practice, participants will decode the language of the body by identifying stress and trauma responses in an intersectional and ecologically sensitive framework. Together, participants will practise real-time regulation tools that harness the body’s innate biology to settle overactive and detrimental responses – reclaiming energy, creative flexibility and connection to ourselves, one another, and our shared liberation. B﻿iographyNkem Ndefo is the founder of Lumos Transforms and creator of the Resilience Toolkit, a model that promotes embodied self-awareness and self-regulation in an ecologically sensitive framework and social justice context. She brings an abundance of experience as a clinician, educator, researcher and community strategist to innovative programs that address trauma and inequity, build resilience and shape liberatory change for individuals and organisations throughout the US and internationally. She is particularly interested in working alongside people most impacted by violence and marginalisation.
