Can you reply to this email…


Reader,

I really want you to reply to this email so I’m going to make it super quick.

As I’m planning my next year of offerings (workshops, Q&As, mini e-courses, lesson plans, and all other communal experiences and exchanges) I’d love to know what would serve you best as you continue (or start) decolonizing your practice.

Just hit reply and answer one or all of the following questions:

  • What’s your biggest struggle right now in embodying your social justice, liberatory, and anti-oppressive values?
  • What’s preventing your from putting into practice decolonization and liberation in your treatment/service/business?
  • What situation or question is causing you to feel stuck/overwhelmed?
  • Is it hard to know where to begin to decolonize your practice?
  • Is there something you’d really love my insight about?

Looking forward to hearing from you 🌻

In community & in rest,

Silvana @ Decolonize Your Practice

PS.

You are receiving this (pre-scheduled) email while I am preparing to take some time off.

So it doesn’t address or reflect on anything that might be happening in the world at the moment (and I truly hope nothing major is happening… we’ve had plenty happen…).

Liberatory Letters

I help therapists, healers, and space-holders bring decolonial and liberatory values into their work—so you’re not just saying you’re aligned… you’re actually practicing it. ⬆️ More integrity, more connection, more liberation. ⬇️ Less burnout, less performative wokeness, less colonial residue. If you want a practice where marginalized clients feel safe, seen, and honored—and you want to feel more grounded and intentional in your work—subscribe and join a growing community of practitioners doing this work differently. You practice can be liberatory-- let's get you there!

May 2026 | issue #7 hey there, i’m trying something new…to honor my boundaries, i’m experimenting with moving The POL to the first monday of the month. i’m also practicing a bit of self-grace—and modeling it, too. meaning: if you don’t receive The POL on the first monday, it likely means i needed to allocate some of my bandwidth (time, energy, or nervous system capacity) to other parts of my full life—and you’ll receive it on the first tuesday instead. you’ll still be getting everything that...
