Healing girl: A Year of Experientials for Healing & Wholeness for Black Women & Femmes

By Chandra Davis

Cultivating Your True Self: A Healing Girl's Guide

This book explores the concept of self-care beyond poolside parties and carefree summer flings. While the popular "Hot Girl Summer" encourages fun and self-expression, the Healing Girl Project delves deeper, acknowledging the burdens Black women carry due to historical oppression and trauma.

This guide offers a path to healing, empowering you to move beyond those wounds and step into your most powerful self. It doesn't dismiss the joy of summer; instead, it emphasizes the importance of inner healing as a foundation for a truly fulfilling life.

Drawing on the rich tradition of Black healing practices, the book provides tools for self-discovery through creative expression, journaling, and self-reflection. Here, you'll find ways to connect with your "True Self" and cultivate resilience in the face of challenges.

Whether you crave the vibrant energy of a "Hot Girl Summer" or prioritize the transformative journey of inner healing, this book equips you with valuable tools for a fulfilling life. The choice is yours – how will you cultivate your True Self?

Hot Girl Summer, popularized by rapper Megan Thee Stallion, is about embracing fun, confidence, and self-expression during the warmer months. It's about living your best life, partying with friends, and owning who you are.

Healing Girl Project, on the other hand, focuses on a deeper transformation. It acknowledges the unique challenges Black women face due to historical oppression and trauma. It proposes a path to heal from those wounds and step into your most empowered self.

Healing doesn't have to look the same for everyone. Black women have a rich history of healing practices, often rooted in community and spirituality. This project would tap into that legacy and empower you to connect with your True Self

through creative expression, journaling, and self-reflection.

While Hot Girl Summer celebrates living life to the fullest, Healing Girl Project focuses on inner healing and personal growth. Ultimately, both concepts can be powerful tools for achieving a fulfilling life. Which project will you choose
