Leah teaches us about Decoloniality and Ontology, what these concepts mean, and why they're important to understand for our personal healing.   \u201cWhen I got into my PHD program, and I started learning these concepts I was like, \u2018If only the public had access to concepts like Decoloniality, if only they had access to concepts like Ontology. For some people, that might totally shift.\u2019 All of us who are seeking healing think that we have pathologies. We think that we are broken and need to be fixed. And what if that\u2019s just not a true orientation at all? Like what if we were never broken? But no one will say that because it doesn\u2019t make healers money. It doesn\u2019t make big pharma money, it doesn\u2019t make the mental health industry money. So I wanted to share this stuff.\u201d   We also get to learn more about the Akashic Records, Leah's practice as an Akashic Records Reader + Mentor, and how she applies the lens of Decoloniality to offer radical healing.   Many worlds exist in this one world. In one world, Leah Garza is a veteran teacher and education organizer. She has spent nearly two decades in social justice movement spaces, working toward equitable change in public education. She earned her masters degrees in education and depth psychology and is currently working on a Phd in community, liberation, indigenous, and eco psychologies. In another world, Leah is a shapeshifter. The trials incurred personally and collectively, through the Trump administration and later the pandemic and uprisings, made her a seeker. Leah learned to engage her ability to shapeshift as she began to ask questions of her purpose in this lifetime. Leah is a practitioner of the Akashic records, and offers radical healing work through the lenses of decoloniality and relational ways of being to subvert the colonial agenda.   Learn more about Leah and how you can work with her at Crystalsofaltamira.com .

Join us May 23rd-28th in Playa Azul, Costa Rica! On this retreat, we'll give ourselves permission to slow down and learn the languages of frequency and sensation. We\u2019ll reconnect our senses and give ourselves space to feel, move and express. And we\u2019ll reconnect to the land that sustains our bodies, learning to commune with the spirits of Nature and the Earth. We believe that healing happens in community and relationship, so we\u2019ll be visiting a biodynamic farm, deepening our sacred relationship with food. And we'll be journeying through breathwork, receiving sound and energy healing, and journeying with the sacred mushroom. If you\u2019d like to learn more, visit wearealldaughters.co and if you\u2019re interested in joining us, please fill out the intake form on our site. We hope to welcome you into our circle.
