Educational institutions, and institutions more broadly, often overlook the value of our collective narratives and the stories of those who shaped them. This session offered an active yet meditative space for attendees to engage in and reflect on creative and liberatory practices that have been shared across our community, and in doing so to implicitly honour some of the individuals and collectives who have made contributions to education, society and our community, whether big or small. The LD community has created a pedagogy of practice that can get lost in the ‘chatter’ and clutter of everyday working lives. We revisited some practices that have been surfaced, shared and celebrated by ALDinHE. Framed as five focused activities that LDs can draw upon for their own teaching practice, this workshop session aimed to provide a meaningful space for reflection and remembrance. By sharing techniques for noticing, poetry, drawing, collaborative writing, and concluding with a short, guided meditation, we offered a space for replenishment and hope.
