The Art of Belonging, with Toko-pa Turner The Embodied Way Podcast

    • Society & Culture

What does it take for one to feel an utter and lasting sense of belonging––belonging to one's family, communities, and culture, belonging in one's body, belonging with a partner, and to one's own self? In this conversation with Canadian writer, teacher, and dreamworker Toko-pa Turner who authored the award-winning book Belonging, we contemplate the distinction between fitting-in and belonging, the reasons why non-belonging  is the silent pandemic of our times, the two lovers we must introduce within ourselves, and the competencies  we must learn and practice in order to experience belonging in a fragmented world.
