Initial Brainstorming and Networking Workshop

On July 1 we held an initial workshop, which brought together academics in several subjects, therapists from different backgrounds, and also some practicing pagans. (Of course, some people fall into more than one category!) The aim was to open conversations and gather ideas for launching a larger project.
