KEY TAKEAWAYS:

🔅Communal care is about having care in Community, and holding each other accountable for caring for your mind, body, and spirit.

🔅When we focus too heavily on doing things by ourselves, we depend on ourselves for things that should invite inquiry and curiosity from others. We put too much on our shoulders; we're too self-dependent.

🔅Community starts with one other person, so if you are nervous about letting people in, start with one person. This invites us to not be so rigid and become more open...all good things ;)

🔅Community is made up of relationships, but relationships do not necessarily make an active community. Active Community is rooted in intent, difficult conversations, accountability, and giving.

🔅Social Media is a great opportunity, if used well, to think critically and come together at different levels of learning.

🔅Even if you "like being alone," you need to get comfortable with being uncomfortable. Even if you take time to regularly go to a park and put yourself in a position to interact with someone.

🔅If you are an extrovert and external processor, remember to take time to invite those you know who tend to go it alone to do things together or into the community. Do not just ask once; keep inviting! That is part of communal care.
