The TIMBo Collective is a collective of mind/body teachers, yogis, educators, mental health professionals, activists working through partnerships with local and global organizations, and grass-roots community groups to create transformation from the inside out.
We use TIMBo programs, education, training, and global service collaborations to empower women and heal individual and collective trauma in order to amplify grassroots change.
“TIMBo has been more useful for me than all of the trauma therapies that have been previously recommended to me by treatment providers, including the trauma “experts” at a [psychiatric hospital] women’s treatment program,where I have been a patient three times. They are heavy on DBT and CBT, which has some good points but overall did not work for me in terms of managing my complex PTSD symptoms and dissociative disorder. TIMBo helped me out of a deep depression, which helped me access my creativity and utilize other skills that have been helpful in my healing (art, etc.) The first step was connecting with my body and with others.” — TIMBo Participant
