In this episode, I have the great pleasure of speaking (once again!) with peace activist, therapist, and author Nitsan Joy Gordon but this time around sadly under the heavy cloak of violence, war, and suffering. Situated in the Galilee at the border with Lebanon, her community, which includes Muslims, Christians, and Jews live in constant fear and tremendous uncertainty.
More than ever, Nitsan is following her calling to establish an army of healers that will be involved in bringing peace and healing to a war-torn region. To be able to do so, it is important to feel and share one’s pain and to engage in open dialogue with respect and empathy toward the other because if we don’t transform our pain, we transmit it and act it out thus creating more divide and mistrust.
And yet, here is the perfect opportunity for healing from trauma in a window of opportunity that comes once in a century, but we all need the willingness to change for the better. This means coming together and to start rebuilding trust and connection despite different belief systems, fears, and doubts.
We also need to change our paradigms and mindsets about the state of the world and follow Marianne Williamson’s suggestions and initiative of a Department of Peace that spends money not on weapons, bombs, and defense systems but on building peace and on teaching people how to connect, on working through conflicts and doing something for the highest good of the world.
