Soulful Resources for Wisdom, Wellness, Meditation, & Liberation from Dr. Shelly Harrell
A SOULFUL APPROACH
Welcome to The Soulfulness Center, Dr. Shelly Harrell's hub for wisdom, meditation, wellness, and resilience resources that are soul-centered, psychology-informed, and inspired by the wisdom of the African diaspora.
Soulfulness is an integrative approach to enhance and optimize your overall well-being through practices that touch and express soul. The practices are all about contacting and expressing your interconnected inner aliveness in the service of personal and collective healing, liberation, and transformative change. Soulfulness helps you make the shift from stressed out to energized within.
Our offerings include classes and workshops, guided meditations and mindfulness practices, as well as BIPOC wellness and mental heath resources to support your healing and liberation - mentally, emotionally, physically, relationally, spiritually, and collectively.
Life for me is a profound, a sacred, a joyous, a mysterious, a soulful dance.
