What is Senti-Pensante?

Combining two Spanish words that mean feeling-thinking, senti-pensante promotes a body-mind process that links together reason and emotion, in service of deepening our cultural awareness and sensitivity, and promoting greater understanding, interconnectedness and collaboration. By acknowledging and celebrating differences, it challenges the dominant culture’s tendency to separate and fragment, fostering greater ability to bridge cultural divides, opening the door for engaging with others with curiosity, compassion and solidarity. The senti-pensante methodologies, tools and practices provide a holistic framework for embodied activism, facilitating inner work for social transformation. The three “R”s of the senti-pensante services and spaces are:

REMEMBERING
who we are, our authentic self, our true purpose
RESOURCING
ourselves, accessing our gifts, fostering resilience
RECONNECTING
within and without, with ourselves and others, from a place of cultural wholeness

This process enables health care providers, trainers, coaches, managers, educators and community organizers working with culturally diverse individuals and communities to create positive organizational change and improve their culture of service, in a way that promotes safe and trusting relationships, healing and well-being, and cultural dignity from the inside out.
