Overview

A series of essays that reflects on a world view and embodied practice that restores the possibility of a world where right relationship can flourish. While restorative justice refers to a set of principled responses to harm centered on healing, often in a legal context, and restorative practice extends those responses to other contexts such as schools and the workplace, restorative being embeds connection, compassion, belonging, and accountability into everyday life. In this collection of essays, Leaf Seligman--restorative practitioner, circle-keeper, educator, itinerant preacher, and advocate for tenderness--reflects on a world view and embodied practice that restores the possibility of a world where right relationship can flourish.
