Deep listening

Connect before you correct

Making anti-racist conversations a part of daily life 

What are tantrums? How best to respond? 

Nurturing a brave space for honesty 

Talking with children about death 

Patience 

Hope is all brightness
as we gaze upon
the precipice
Not casting our eyes,
downward,
but filling our lungs eagerly
with the fresh air
of a new day,
our souls in winged orbit
outdistance the moon.
~ Sally Borden, UU poet

All are welcome to join the Holding Space + Covid-19 Circle of Care
for more resources during this time.
