Spirituality and Self-Care: Resisting Optimization through Womb

Self-care and spiritual wellbeing practices are increasingly shaped by neoliberal ideals of productivity. Yet when enacted as forms of radical self-love and self-recovery, they can also operate as sites of resistance. The webinar explores this tension through an ethnographic study of womb yoga, a women-centred alternative therapy developed in the UK.
