TESTIMONIALS
“This video is for those who likely know what we feel in our bodies when we migrate.
Held by the nurturing land of Milwaukee, 45 courageous women who migrated from Latin America and Canada came together. The gathering was a reunion with their essence and with other beings who share similar stories. They gathered in a circle, with trees embracing them from behind and in front, waiting to be embraced in return. Together, they created a circle of mindfulness and somatic experience—a space where they could give and receive.
Thank you to these 45 women for your invaluable presence, for your sacred journey north, and for bringing open hearts. And thank you to those of you reading these words in this moment.
Thank you to the Wisconsin Early Childhood Association, Primordial, and the revitalizing presence of nature—especially the trees along the Milwaukee River.” — Sylvia Eugenia Ruiz, CMF, SEP
"I learned how to self-regulate, I learned that I should share this teaching in my work with the children and with my family."
