Ethics of Animal Harm: Wounds in the Collective Field
Opening ourselves to Animal Welfare & Ethical Violation in Factory Farming
Online | English
What will we be exploring in this Lab?
This lab aims to bring awareness to the trauma of farm animals (chicken, cattle, pigs) on factory farms. Factory farming is a global industry that has expanded over the last century through technology and medical progress, raising billions of animals in traumatizing conditions. Animals endure confinement, overcrowding, and painful procedures, leading to stress, injury, and disease. Animals are part of our inter-being with nature. Our intention is to presence how ethical violations of animal welfare in this industry affect our collective well-being. What do we turn away from?
Who is invited to participate?
We invite 30 participants from around the world into this lab, who feel called to turn towards this topic and to explore it in depth. As a participant, you are available to open up to physical and emotional experiencing, and to participate actively in the group process, listening and sharing. You bring a capacity for self-regulation and or you are resourced in your personal life to find additional co-regulation. The collective work brings us often in touch with personal layers of ourselves. As a team, we will also offer optional additional resourcing sessions during our time together.
More about the journey of the Lab
We will resource ourselves throughout our lab journey. Together, we will collect information about factory farming and will attune to layers of this global trauma field; our personal stake holding, our ancestors, and our collective social and planetary body. We will lead exercises to receive deeper layers of information stored in us, and will do practices for group coherence. Our intention is to bring presence and awareness to the Ethics in Animal Harm. What does embodied ethical farming look and feel like, in the world and in us?
