About this Event

Join the SOOTHE Circle’s in-person session, where Dea Lott will guide the SOOTHE Circle through a restorative yoga class that may ease and calm our distress after we experience and witness injustices, violence, and loss.

Class will include gentle yoga postures that use blankets, bolsters, pillows, guided breathing, and a spiritually-focused meditation to promote calm and deep relaxation of the nervous system to empower us to heal and liberate ourselves.

Presenter Bio:
Dea Lott, J.D., RYT is the founder of DivineSense and the SOOTHE Circle. Dea is a wellness consultant, healing justice practitioner, registered yoga philosophy teacher, mediator, movement lawyer, community organizer, and student of ancestral indigenous spiritual philosophies and practices.

She has over 20 years of combined personal and professional experience using African Indigenous, Classical Yoga, Black American spiritual traditions, and other wellness modalities to support overall health and wellbeing. Dea has also worked on social justice issues, as an attorney, law professor, campaign manager, organizer, and in various other roles, for over 15 years.

She was inspired to create the SOOTHE Circle after experiencing systemic racial violence herself and after police violence harmed her family member and killed her family friend, Herman Whitfield III.

After going through her own healing process and supporting her relative and the Whitfield family, she recognized the need for an alternative system of community-led care for the victims of systemic violence that is free from the persistent harms of individual and systemic racism and inequities.
