From Surviving to Thriving: Decolonial Healing and Liberation with Dr. Thema Bryant
by SAND
Walk through this valley of the shadow of death in collective consciousness, awake, aware, empowered, unapologetically. Liberation is calling. Get free. Stay free. — Dr. Thema Bryant
We invite you to gather for a conversation that pulses with medicine for these uncertain, tender, and threshold-crossing times. We are honored to welcome Dr. Thema Bryant, psychologist, sacred artist, ordained elder, author, and former President of the APA. Her embodied wisdom in healing trauma, cultural resilience, and sacred connection will guide us in exploring how to move from individual survival to collective thriving—and into the sacred work of liberation.

A recording will be available to SAND members and pre-registered participants only
Together, we will reflect on the weaving of healing relationships and the possibilities that emerge when care is rooted in community, ancestry, and the rhythms of the Earth.
Themes we’ll explore:
What becomes possible when we treat healing not as a private project but as a communal and ecological rhythm?
How do we honor the plural lineages that carry wisdom beyond the reach of psychology alone?
What does liberation feel like when it’s not optimized, resolved, or earned—but remembered, re-woven, and rhythmically practiced?
In a world where some pain is broadcast and other pain is buried, how do we notice which griefs are allowed to count and which are made unspeakable?
We offer this gathering as a space of resonance, reflection, and reconnection, an opportunity to slow down, listen deeply, and attune to what healing asks of us now.
We look forward to being with you.
With love,
The SAND team
